NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization

     In 1994, FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated, or FelCor, went public as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, with six hotels and a market capitalization of $120 million. We are now the nation’s second largest lodging REIT and the largest owner of full service, all-suite hotels in the nation. At March 31, 2004, our hotel portfolio included 71 upscale, all-suite hotels, and we are the owner of the largest number of Embassy Suites Hotels®, Crowne Plaza®, Holiday Inn® and independently-owned Doubletree® hotels in North America. Our portfolio also includes 74 hotels in the upscale and full service segments.

     FelCor is the sole general partner of, and the owner of an approximately 95% limited partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP. All of our operations are conducted solely through FelCor LP, or its subsidiaries.

     At March 31, 2004, we had ownership interests in 163 hotels. We owned a 100% real estate interest in 126 hotels, a 90% or greater interest in entities owning seven hotels, a 60% interest in an entity owning two hotels, a 51% interest in an entity owning eight hotels and 50% interests in unconsolidated entities that own 20 hotels. As a result of our ownership interests in the operating lessees of 158 of these hotels, we reflect their operating revenues and expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. The operations of 156 of the 158 hotels were included in continuing operations at March 31, 2004. The remaining two hotels were held for sale as of March 31, 2004, and their operations are included in discontinued operations. The operating revenues and expenses of the remaining five hotels are unconsolidated.

     At March 31, 2004, we had an aggregate of 62,180,764 shares of FelCor common stock and units of FelCor LP limited partnership interest outstanding.

     The following table reflects the distribution, by brand, of the 156 hotels included in our consolidated hotel continuing operations at March 31, 2004:

                 
Brand
  Hotels
  Rooms
Embassy Suites Hotels
    56       14,279  
Doubletree and Doubletree Guest Suites®
    10       2,206  
Holiday Inn — branded
    46       14,637  
Crowne Plaza and Crowne Plaza Suites®
    15       5,108  
Sheraton® and Sheraton Suites®

Other brands
    19       4,120  
 
   
 
         
Total hotels
    156          
 
   
 
         

     The hotels shown in the above table are located in the United States (33 states) and Canada (two hotels), with concentrations in Texas (36 hotels), California (20 hotels), Florida (16 hotels) and Georgia (14 hotels). Approximately 58% of our hotel room revenues were generated from hotels in these four states during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

     At March 31, 2004, of the 156 consolidated hotels included in continuing operations, (i) subsidiaries of InterContinental Hotels Group, or IHG, managed 67, (ii) subsidiaries of Hilton Hotels Corporation, or Hilton, managed 66, (iii) subsidiaries of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., or Starwood, managed 11, (iv) subsidiaries of Interstate Hotels & Resorts, or Interstate, managed 10, and (v) two independent management companies managed one each.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial information to conform to the current period’s presentation with no effect to previously reported net loss or stockholders’ equity.

FELCOR LODGING TRUST INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization — (continued)

     The financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2004, and 2003, is unaudited. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2004, and 2003, include adjustments based on management’s estimates (consisting of normal and recurring accruals), which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 (“Form 10-K”). Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year ending December 31, 2004.

2. Acquisition of Hotels

     Our hotel acquisitions consist almost exclusively of land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and inventory. We allocate the purchase price among these asset classes based upon their respective values determined in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS 141, “Business Combinations.” When we acquire properties, we acquire them for use. The only intangible assets typically acquired consist of miscellaneous operating agreements, all of which are of short duration and at market rates. We do not acquire any significant in-place leases or other intangible assets (e.g., management agreements, franchise agreements or trademarks) when we acquire hotels. In conjunction with the acquisition of a hotel, we typically negotiate new franchise and management agreements with the selected brand owner and manager.

     On March 12, 2004, we purchased the 132-room Santa Monica Holiday Inn for $27 million.

3. Investment in Unconsolidated Entities

     We owned 50% interests in joint venture entities that owned 20 hotels at March 31, 2004, and 29 hotels at March 31, 2003. We also owned a 50% interest in entities that own an undeveloped parcel of land, provide condominium management services, develop condominiums in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and lease four hotels. We account for our investments in these unconsolidated entities under the equity method. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in our financial statements.

     Summarized unaudited combined financial information for 100% of these unconsolidated entities is as follows (in thousands):

                 
    March 31,   December 31,
    2004
  2003
Balance sheet information:

Total liabilities
  $ 287,463     $ 276,773  
Equity
  $ 89,611     $ 89,273  

     Debt of our unconsolidated entities at March 31, 2004, included $212.0 million of non-recourse mortgage debt, of which our pro rata share is $105.9 million.

     Debt of our unconsolidated entities at March 31, 2004, also included $37.2 million of mortgage debt guaranteed by us and $37.1 million of mortgage debt guaranteed by Hilton, one of our joint venture partners. The debt guaranteed by us consisted primarily of 50% of a loan related to the construction of a residential condominium project in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The loan commitment is for $97.6 million of which approximately

3. Investment in Unconsolidated Entities — (continued)

$74.1 million was outstanding as of March 31, 2004. Our guarantee reduces from 50% to 25% of the outstanding balance when the condominium project is completed and receives a certificate of occupancy, which we expect to occur in late 2004.

     Our guarantee is a payment guarantee and will become payable in the event that the joint venture fails to pay interest or principal due under the debt agreement. The loan matures in August 2005, and bears interest at LIBOR plus 200 basis points. As of March 31, 2004, we had not established any liability related to our guarantees of debt, because it was not probable that we would be required to perform under these guarantees.

4. Debt — (continued)

     We reported interest expense net of interest income of $0.7 million and $0.4 million and capitalized interest of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

     Ratings downgrades in 2003 on our $1.2 billion in senior unsecured debt resulted in a 50 basis point step-up in interest rates on $900 million of our senior unsecured debt.

     In March 2004, we elected to terminate our line of credit, which resulted in the first quarter charge-off of unamortized loan costs of $0.2 million and will produce cash savings of approximately $0.4 million during the remainder of 2004.

     In June 2003, we entered into a new secured delayed draw facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank for up to $200 million. Through the date of this filing, there have been no borrowings under this facility, and we have an estimated $172 million of borrowing capacity based on the underwritten cash flows of the 14 hotels currently securing this facility. The amount available to us under this facility will fluctuate, prior to conversion into commercial mortgage backed security (CMBS) loans, depending upon the number of hotels provided as security and the underwritten cash flows of those hotels, from time to time. This non-recourse facility has an initial term of 18 months that can be extended for an additional six months at our option and carries a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.25 to 2.75 percent. The outstanding balances on this loan facility will be converted by the lender into fixed rate or floating rate CMBS loans, and we have a one-time option to convert up to $75 million in borrowings to a floating rate CMBS loan. Upon conversion, the fixed rate loans will have a term of 10 years and any floating rate loans will have a maximum term of five years.

     Most of our mortgage debt is non-recourse to us and contains provisions allowing for the substitution of collateral upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Most of our mortgage debt is prepayable, subject to various prepayment penalties, yield maintenance or defeasance obligations. Our liability with regard to non-recourse debt is generally limited to the guarantee of the borrowing entity’s obligations to pay for the lender’s losses caused by misconduct, fraud or misappropriation of funds and other typical exceptions from the non-recourse provisions in the mortgages, such as for environmental liabilities.

     Our publicly-traded senior unsecured notes require that we satisfy total leverage, secured leverage and interest coverage tests in order to: incur additional indebtedness, except to refinance maturing debt with replacement debt, as defined under our indentures; pay dividends in excess of the minimum dividend required to meet the REIT qualification test; repurchase capital stock; or merge. As of the date of this filing, we have satisfied all such tests, however, under the terms of two of our indentures, we are prohibited from repurchasing any of our capital stock, whether common or preferred, subject to certain exceptions, so long as our debt-to-EBITDA ratio, as defined in the indentures, exceeds 4.85 to 1. Our current debt-to-EBITDA ratio exceeds that ratio and is expected to do so for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we are prohibited from purchasing any of our capital stock, except as permitted under limited exceptions, such as from the proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance of other capital stock.

     If actual operating results fail to meet our current expectations, as reflected in our public guidance, or if interest rates increase unexpectedly, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the incurrence test under the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes. In such an event, we may be prohibited from utilizing the $172 million undrawn amount currently available to us under our secured debt facility, except to repay or refinance maturing debt with similar priority in the capital structure, and may be prohibited from, among other things, incurring any additional indebtedness or paying dividends on our preferred or common stock, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the REIT qualification requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our taxable income. In the event of our failure of this incurrence test, based upon our current estimates of taxable income for 2004, we would be unable to distribute the full amount of dividends accruing under our outstanding preferred stock in 2004 and, accordingly, could pay no dividends on our common stock.

5. Derivatives

     In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. We limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. It is our objective to use interest rate hedges to manage our fixed and floating interest rate position and not to engage in speculation on interest rates. We manage interest rate risk based on the varying circumstances of anticipated borrowings, and existing floating and fixed rate debt. We will generally seek to pursue interest rate risk mitigation strategies that will result in the least amount of reported earnings volatility under generally accepted accounting principles, while still meeting strategic economic objectives and maintaining adequate liquidity and flexibility. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract.

     To manage the relative mix of our debt between fixed and variable rate instruments, through March 31, 2004, we had entered into 15 interest rate swap agreements with five financial institutions with an aggregate notional value of $400 million. These interest rate swap agreements modify a portion of the interest characteristics of our outstanding fixed rate debt, without an exchange of the underlying principal amount, and effectively convert fixed rate debt to a variable rate.

     To determine the fair values of our derivative instruments, we use a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each balance sheet date. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.

     The interest rate swap agreements held at March 31, 2004, are designated as fair value hedges, are marked to market through the income statement, but are offset by the change in fair value of our swapped outstanding fixed rate debt. The estimated unrealized net gain on these interest rate swap agreements was approximately $11.0 million at March 31, 2004, and represents the amount we would receive if the agreements were terminated, based on current market rates.

     The fixed rates we will receive and the variable rates we will pay, under these swaps, as of March 31, 2004, are summarized in the following table:

                                         
                            Weighted-average    
    Notional Amount                   Spread Paid in

  $ 175         6             3.20 %     7.38 %
October 2007
    125         5             4.03 %     7.63 %

  $ 400                       3.77 %(a)     7.42 %(a)
 
   
 
                                 

  (a)   Based on the weighted average as of March 31, 2004.

     The amounts paid or received by us under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements are accrued as interest rates change, and we recognize them as an adjustment to interest expense, which will have a corresponding effect on our future cash flows. The interest rate swaps decreased interest expense by $2.8 million and $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Our interest rate swaps have monthly to semi-annual settlement dates. Agreements such as these contain a credit risk in that the counterparties may be unable to fulfill the terms of the agreement. We minimize that risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of our counterparties, who are limited to major banks and financial institutions, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Standard & Poor’s credit ratings for the financial institutions that are counterparties to our interest rate swap agreements range from A+ to AA-.

5. Derivatives — (continued)

     To fulfill requirements under a $150 million secured loan facility executed in April 2003, we purchased 6% interest rate caps with a notional amount of $150 million. We concurrently sold interest rate caps with identical terms. These interest rate cap agreements have not been designated as hedges. The fair value of both the purchased and sold interest rate caps was $0.1 million at March 31, 2004, resulting in no net earnings impact.

6. Hotel Operating Revenue, Departmental Expenses and Other Property Operating Costs

     Hotel operating revenue from continuing operations was comprised of the following (in thousands):

                 
    Three Months Ended
    March 31,
    2004
  2003
Room revenue
  $ 247,395     $ 227,659

Other operating departments
    16,470       15,284  
 
   
 
     
 
 
Total hotel operating revenues
  $ 311,085     $ 286,571  
 
   
 
     
 
 

     Approximately 99.9% of our revenue was comprised of hotel operating revenues, which includes room revenue, food and beverage revenue, and revenue from other hotel operating departments (such as telephone, parking and business centers), in 2004 and 2003. These revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy taxes collected from our guests. All rebates or discounts are recorded, when allowed, as a reduction in revenue, and there are no material contingent obligations with respect to rebates or discounts offered by us. All revenues are recorded on an accrual basis, as earned. Appropriate allowances are made for doubtful accounts and are recorded as a bad debt expense. The remaining 0.1% of our revenue was from retail space rental revenue and other sources in 2004 and 2003.

     We do not have any time-share arrangements and do not sponsor any guest frequency programs for which we would have any contingent liability. We participate in guest frequency programs sponsored by the brand owners of our hotels, and we expense the charges associated with those programs (typically consisting of a percentage of the total guest charges incurred by a participating guest), as incurred. When a guest redeems accumulated guest frequency points at one of our hotels, the hotel bills the sponsor for the services provided in redemption of such points and records revenue in the amount of the charges billed to the sponsor. Associated with the guest frequency programs, we have no loss contingencies or ongoing obligation beyond what is paid to the brand owner at the time of the guest’s stay.

     Included in total hotel operating revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2004, was $7.1 million of hotel operating revenue from the consolidation of our joint venture with Interstate in June 2003. This joint venture had been previously accounted for by the equity method.

9. Earnings (Loss) Per Share — (continued)

     Securities that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because they would have been antidilutive for the periods presented, are as follows (in thousands):

                 
    Three Months Ended

     Series A preferred dividends that would be excluded from net loss applicable to common stockholders, if these Series A preferred shares were dilutive, were $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

10. Stock Based Compensation Plans

     We apply Accounting Principles Board, or APB, Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for our stock based compensation plans for stock based compensation issued prior to January 1, 2003. In 1995, SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” was issued, which, if fully adopted by us, would have changed the methods we apply in recognizing the cost of the plans. As permitted under the transition provisions of SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure,” we began recognizing compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123 for all new awards issued after December 31, 2002. Had the compensation cost for our stock-based compensation plans been determined in accordance with SFAS 123 prior to January 1, 2003, our net income or loss and net income or loss per common share for the periods presented would approximate the pro forma amounts below (in thousands, except per share data):

11. Lease Termination Costs

     We lease the San Francisco Holiday Inn Select Downtown & Spa hotel under a lease that expires at the end of 2004. In May 2003, the lessor asserted that we were in default of our obligations for maintenance, repair and replacement under the lease, and asserted that the cost of correcting the alleged deficiencies was approximately $13.9 million. The lessor subsequently asserted that we were also in default of our capital expenditure obligations under the lease in the approximate amount of $3 million. In October 2003, we reached a partial settlement with the lessor, pursuant to which we paid the lessor $296,000 in full satisfaction and discharge of certain maintenance obligations that the lessor had valued in its original claim at $470,300. On May 3, 2004, we executed a settlement agreement. Under the terms of the settlement, we have paid the lessor $5 million

and will transfer our interest in the hotel to the lessor as of June 30, 2004, in exchange for which we will be relieved of the obligation to make any capital improvements to the hotel other than certain items currently in progress and specifically agreed to, and will receive a full release of all known and unknown claims and further obligations under the lease. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, we expensed $4.9 million representing the unaccrued cost of the termination of this lease. We have received a release of termination liability to IHG under their management agreement with respect to this hotel, upon its termination in connection with the above settlement.

12. Subsequent Events

     On April 5, 2004, we completed the sale of 4,600,000 shares of our $1.95 Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock. The shares were sold at a price of $23.79 per share, which included accrued dividends of $0.51 per share through April 5, 2004, resulting in net proceeds to FelCor of approximately $105 million. The proceeds are currently expected to be used for the retirement of debt.

     During April 2004, we purchased in the open market an aggregate of $26.5 million in principal amount, of our 9½% Senior Notes due 2008. These notes are callable beginning September 15, 2004 at an initial premium 104.75% of par.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

     In the first quarter of 2004, revenue per available room, or RevPAR, for our consolidated hotel portfolio in continuing operations, increased 4.4% compared to the same period last year, which surpassed our original expectations of a RevPAR increase of 1.5% to 2.5%. Including April 2004, we will have had five consecutive months with year-over-year RevPAR increases. Occupied rooms at our hotels, or occupancy, increased 5.2% for the quarter, compared to the same quarter last year, while the average daily rate, or ADR, of our hotel portfolio decreased by 0.7%. Hotel demand has been getting stronger and, similar to past lodging cycles, as our hotel occupancy increases, ADR should improve.

     We currently have 28 hotels that we have previously designated as non-strategic and intend to sell by the end of 2005, with expected proceeds of approximately $200 million. We expect to complete hotel sales in 2004 of approximately $125 million. In 2004, through April, we have sold seven hotels, receiving aggregate proceeds of $43 million.

     We continue to invest in our core hotels to maintain their competitive position and to take advantage of the current recovery phase of the lodging cycle. During the first quarter of 2004, we spent $12 million for capital improvements and replacements, and anticipate capital spending on our hotels to approximate $75 million to $100 million for the full year.

Results of Operations

     At March 31, 2004, we had 158 hotels included in our consolidated operations, including the two hotels that were classified as “held for sale” and included in discontinued operations, of which 29 hotels had been identified as non-strategic. Included in our discontinued operations at March 31, 2004, were 4 non-strategic hotels disposed of during the first three months of 2004. Disposition proceeds from the 4 non-strategic hotels sold during the first quarter of 2004 totaled approximately $30 million.

     For the three months ended March 31, 2004, we recorded a loss applicable to common shareholders of $27 million, compared to a loss in 2003 of $28 million. The first quarter 2004 loss included a non-recurring $4.9 million expense, representing $0.08 per share, associated with an anticipated settlement that is expected to include an early termination of the lease on one hotel and a release of claims relating to that hotel. The early termination of this lease is expected to result in an improvement of $0.01 per share in second half 2004 earnings. Also included in the prior year loss was a gain of $1 million, or $0.02 per share, from the early extinguishment of debt.

     Revenues from continuing operations for the first three months was $311 million, reflecting an increase of $24 million, or 8.5 %, compared to the same quarter in 2003. The increase in revenues was primarily related to a 4.4% increase in our hotel portfolio’s RevPAR, compared to the same quarter in 2003. Occupancy increased 5.2%, to 64.4%, and ADR decreased 0.7% to $97.16, compared to the same quarter of 2003. We attribute the increase in occupancy to increases in corporate transient business and strong leisure demand.

     Included in revenue for 2004 is $7 million of revenue from consolidation of our joint venture with Interstate Hotels & Resorts, and the operating results of the joint venture’s hotels, which had been accounted for by the equity method until June 2003.

     Our first quarter 2004 hotel operating profit from continuing operations increased by $4 million over the same period in 2003. Operating margin, which is hotel operating profit divided by hotel revenue, decreased from 29.7% to 28.7%. We attribute the decrease in operating margin principally to the 0.7% drop in ADR and an increase in labor related costs, including workers compensation insurance.

     The 29 non strategic hotels included in continuing operations at March 31, 2004, represented 18% of the rooms in our hotel portfolio, but approximately 8% of our consolidated hotel operating profit in 2004. The operating margin for these 29 hotels was 18.6 %, compared to 30.3% for the remainder of our portfolio.

     Included in the first quarter of 2003 loss is a $1 million gain from the early extinguishment of debt.

     Discontinued operations represent the operating income, direct interest costs and gains or losses on sale of the four hotels sold during the first quarter of 2004, the two hotels that were designated as held for sale at March 31, 2004, and the 16 hotels sold in 2003.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Funds From Operations and EBITDA

     Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors consider supplemental measurements of performance to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. We consider Funds From Operations, or FFO, and Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization, or EBITDA, to be supplemental measures of a REIT’s performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income as a measure of our operating performance.

18


Table of Contents

     The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. FFO and EBITDA are not measures of operating performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP. However, we believe that FFO and EBITDA are helpful to management and investors as supplemental measures of the performance of an equity REIT. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT. This may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

     FFO and EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating profit, cash flow from operations, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Neither should FFO, FFO per share and EBITDA be considered as measures of our liquidity or indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. FFO per share does not measure, and should not be used as a measure of amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders.

     The following tables detail our computation of FFO and EBITDA (in thousands):

Hotel Operating Profit and Operating Margin

     Hotel operating profit and operating margin are commonly used non-GAAP measures of performance that we utilize to measure the relative performance of our individual hotels and groups of hotels and give investors a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our individual hotels and operating managers have direct control. We believe that hotel operating profit and operating margin are useful to investors by providing greater transparency with respect to significant measures used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to stockholders and repayments of indebtedness, is from the results of operations of our hotels. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, net cash flow provided by operating activities, consisting primarily of hotel operations, was $6.7 million. At March 31, 2004, we had cash on hand of approximately $232 million. Included in cash on hand are approximately $35 million held under our hotel management agreements to meet our hotel minimum working capital requirements and $22 million held in escrow under certain of our debt agreements.

     We currently expect that our cash flow provided by operating activities for 2004 will be approximately $86 million to $92 million. These cash flow forecasts assume a RevPAR increase of 4% to 5% and operating margin of approximately 29% to 30%. In 2004, our current operating plan contemplates preferred dividend payments of $34 million, capital expenditures of approximately $75 to $100 million, debt maturities of $175 million, $17 million in normal recurring principal payments and sales of approximately $125 million in non-strategic hotels. We expect cash necessary to fund cash flow shortfalls and distributions, if any, will be funded from our cash balances, proceeds from the sale of hotels, and the $172 million currently estimated to be available to us under our secured debt facility. We currently anticipate that our board of directors will defer the resumption of common dividends until the anticipated recovery in our business is more firmly established, and to determine the amount of preferred dividends, if any, for each quarterly period, based upon the actual operating results of that quarter, economic conditions, other operating trends, our financial condition and capital requirements, as well as the minimum REIT distribution requirements.

     On April 5, 2004, we completed the sale of 4,600,000 shares of our $1.95 Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock. The shares were sold at a price of $23.79 per share, which included accrued dividends of $0.51 per share through April 5, 2004, resulting in net proceeds to FelCor of approximately $105 million. We currently expect to use the proceeds to retire debt.

     During April 2004, we purchased in the open market an aggregate of $26.5 million in principal amount, of our 9½% Senior Notes due 2008. These notes are callable beginning September 15, 2004 at an initial premium 104.75% of par.

     Most of our mortgage debt is non-recourse to us and contains provisions allowing for the substitution of collateral upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Most of our mortgage debt is prepayable, subject to various prepayment penalties, yield maintenance or defeasance obligations.

     Our publicly-traded senior unsecured notes require that we satisfy total leverage, secured leverage and interest coverage tests in order to: incur additional indebtedness except to refinance maturing debt with replacement debt, as defined under our indentures; pay dividends in excess of the minimum dividend required to meet the REIT qualification test; repurchase capital stock; or merge. As of the date of this filing, we have satisfied all such tests; however, under the terms of two of our indentures, we are prohibited from repurchasing any of our capital stock, whether common or preferred, subject to certain exceptions, so long as our debt-to-EBITDA ratio, as defined in the indentures, exceeds 4.85 to 1. Our current debt-to-EBITDA ratio exceeds that ratio and is expected to do so for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we are prohibited from purchasing any of our capital stock, except as permitted under limited exceptions, such as from the proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance of other capital stock.

     If actual operating results fail to meet our current expectations, as reflected in our current public guidance, or if interest rates increase unexpectedly, we may be unable to continue to satisfy the incurrence test under the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes. In such an event, we may be prohibited from utilizing the undrawn amounts currently available to us under our secured debt facility, except to repay or refinance maturing debt with similar priority in the capital structure, and may be prohibited from, among other things, incurring any additional indebtedness or paying dividends on our preferred or common stock, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the REIT qualification requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our taxable income. In the event of our failure of this incurrence test, based upon our current estimates of taxable income for 2004, we would be unable to distribute the full amount of dividends accruing under our outstanding preferred stock in 2004 and, accordingly, could pay no dividends on our common stock.

Table of Contents

     We currently anticipate that we will meet our financial covenant and incurrence tests under the RevPAR guidance provided by us at our first quarter earnings conference call on April 29, 2004. For the second quarter of 2004, we currently anticipate that our portfolio RevPAR will be 5% to 6% above the comparable period of the prior year. The RevPAR increase for the first 25 days of April 2004, compared to the same period in 2003, was approximately 7.3%. We currently anticipate that full year 2004 hotel portfolio RevPAR will increase approximately 4% to 5%. For 2004 we expect to make capital expenditures of $75 to $100 million, and we anticipate selling approximately $125 million in non-strategic hotels. We estimate that our net loss applicable to common stockholders for 2004 will be in the range of $75 to $69 million or $1.27 to $1.17 per share. FFO per share, for the year 2004, is anticipated to be within the range of $0.89 to $0.98, and EBITDA is expected to be within the range of $257 to $263 million. Our FFO and EBITDA estimates include an $8 million gain expected on the sale of a 251-unit residential condominium development expected to be completed and sold in 2004 and $5 million in lease termination costs expensed in the first quarter of 2004. No other transaction gains or losses are included in these earnings estimates.

     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     At March 31, 2004, approximately 72% of our consolidated debt had fixed interest rates. Currently, market rates of interest are below the rates we are obligated to pay on our fixed-rate debt.

Table of Contents

     The following table provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps and debt obligations. For debt obligations, the table presents scheduled maturities and weighted average interest rates, by maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents the notional amount and weighted average interest rate, by contractual maturity date. The fair value of our fixed rate debt indicates the estimated principal amount of debt having the same debt service requirements that could have been borrowed at the date presented, at then current market interest rates. The fair value of our fixed to variable interest rate swaps indicates the estimated amount that would have been received or paid by us had the swaps been terminated at the date presented.

     Swap contracts, such as described above, contain a credit risk, in that the counterparties may be unable to fulfill the terms of the agreement. We minimize that risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of our counterparties, who are limited to major banks and financial institutions, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Standard & Poor’s credit ratings for the financial institutions that are counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements range from A+ to AA-.

Inflation

     Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. Competitive pressures may, however, require us to reduce room rates in the near term and may limit our ability to raise room rates in the future. We are also subject to the risk that inflation will cause increases in hotel operating expenses disproportionately to revenues.

Table of Contents

Seasonality

     The lodging business is seasonal in nature. Generally, hotel revenues are greater in the second and third calendar quarters than in the first and fourth calendar quarters, although this may not be true for hotels in major tourist destinations. Revenues for hotels in tourist areas generally are substantially greater during tourist season than other times of the year. Seasonal variations in revenue at our hotels can be expected to cause quarterly fluctuations in our revenues. Quarterly earnings also may be adversely affected by events beyond our control, such as extreme weather conditions, economic factors and other considerations affecting travel. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenues, we may utilize cash on hand or borrowings to satisfy our obligations or make distributions to our equity holders.

PART II. — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 5. Other Information

     On April 27, 2004, we announced in a press release that Richard J. O’Brien, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer since 2001, had submitted his resignation. Mr. O’Brien left FelCor to pursue other opportunities as of April 23, 2004. We have engaged a professional search firm to assist us in identifying potential candidates to fill the vacancy created by Mr. O’Brien’s resignation.

     In April 2004, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors recommended, and the Board of Directors approved, effective January 1, 2004, the payment of cash compensation of $222,050 annually to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, in addition to the compensation he would otherwise receive as a director of FelCor. The additional compensation was granted in recognition of the increased responsibilities and commitments in time that Donald J. McNamara has undertaken in his role as the Chairman of the Board. The office of Chairman of the Board remains as a non-executive position, although in light of Mr. McNamara’s increased interaction with management, the Board of Directors will no longer consider Mr. McNamara to be “independent” under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange.

FIFTH AMENDMENT TO
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
OF FELCOR LODGING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

     This Fifth Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) is made and entered into effective as of April 2, 2004, by and among FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated, a Maryland corporation, as the General Partner (the “General Partner”) and all of the persons and entities who are, or shall in the future become, Limited Partners of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement (as hereinafter defined).
