FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THESE ACTIVITIES, SEE "UNDERWRITING." S-2 3 PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information included elsewhere in this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus or incorporated herein and therein by reference. THE COMPANY FelCor is a REIT that, at April 23, 1998, owned interests in 76 hotels with an aggregate of 18,596 suites and rooms in 28 states (the "FelCor Hotels") through its 92.7% general partner interest in FelCor Suites Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). Fifty-two of the FelCor Hotels are operated as Embassy Suites(R) hotels (of which 28 were converted from other brands), 14 are operated as Doubletree Guest Suites(R) hotels, seven are operated as Sheraton(R) hotels (five of which are upscale, full-service traditional non-suite hotels), two are operated as traditional non-suite Doubletree(R) hotels (one of which is in the process of conversion to the Doubletree brand) and one is operated as a Hilton Suites(R) hotel. Sixty-six of the FelCor Hotels are managed by subsidiaries of Promus Hotel Corporation ("Promus") which, following its recent merger with Doubletree Corporation, includes Doubletree Hotels Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Doubletree"). Promus is the largest operator of all-suite, full-service hotels in the United States. Of the remaining FelCor Hotels, seven are managed by a subsidiary of ITT Sheraton Corporation ("Sheraton") and three are managed by independent management companies. FelCor is the owner of the largest number of Embassy Suites hotels in the world. FelCor seeks to increase operating cash flow and enhance stockholder value through both internal growth and acquisitions. It seeks to acquire, at less than replacement cost, existing hotels that are underperforming, due to the need for capital improvements or poor management or franchise affiliation, and to add value through its active asset management and strategic investment of capital. FelCor also may add suites at its existing hotels where demand warrants and expects to acquire 90% interests in four to seven new Embassy Suites hotels to be developed by Promus and in which Promus will own the remaining interest. Subject to reaching agreement on specific sites and budgets for development of these new hotels, the first of these hotels is expected to open in late 1999. FelCor's internal growth strategy is to utilize its asset management expertise to improve the quality of its hotels by renovating, upgrading and repositioning, thereby improving the revenue performance of its hotels, and to participate through percentage leases in any resulting growth in revenues. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Recent Acquisitions. During the period from January 1, 1998, to April 23, 1998, FelCor acquired three hotels with an aggregate of 596 suites and rooms for approximately $57.4 million in cash and limited partner units ("Units") in the Operating Partnership. These three hotels are (i) a 194-suite Doubletree Guest Suites hotel located in downtown Columbus, Ohio, (ii) a traditional 154-room upscale full-service hotel with approximately 13,000 sq. ft. of meeting space located in Wilmington, Delaware which is scheduled to be expanded by approximately 100 rooms and converted into a Doubletree hotel during 1999, and (iii) a traditional 248-room upscale full-service Doubletree hotel with approximately 11,000 sq. ft. of meeting space located in Aurora, Colorado. Pending Acquisition. FelCor has entered into an agreement to purchase eight upscale full-service, all-suite hotels from Starwood Hotels & Resorts ("Starwood") for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $245 million. See "Use of Proceeds". These hotels have a total of 1,898 suites and consist of five Embassy Suites hotels and three Doubletree Guest Suites hotels located in seven states. Following the acquisition, six of the eight hotels are expected to be operated as Embassy Suites hotels and be managed by Promus. The two remaining hotels are expected to be operated as Sheraton Suites hotels and will continue to be managed by Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. FelCor is currently evaluating a number of other potential hotel acquisition opportunities. Pending Merger With Bristol. On March 23, 1998, FelCor entered into a Merger Agreement (the "Merger Agreement") with Bristol Hotel Company ("Bristol") under which the owned and leased hotel assets of Bristol will be merged with and into FelCor (the "Merger). As a consequence of the Merger, S-3 4 Bristol's stockholders will acquire approximately 44% of the FelCor common stock outstanding immediately following the Merger and FelCor's board of directors will be reconstituted. In anticipation of the Merger, Bristol will spin-off (the "Spin-Off") its hotel operating business as a separate public company named Bristol Hotels & Resorts ("BHR"). The Bristol hotels acquired in the Merger will be leased to BHR. The proposed Merger with Bristol, in addition to being accretive to FelCor's forecasted funds from operations ("FFO") in each of the years 1998 through 2000, will provide FelCor with a number of perceived advantages, such as (i) providing FelCor with further diversification into a new segment of the lodging industry, with a resulting increase in acquisition and growth opportunities, (ii) making FelCor the owner of the largest number of Holiday Hospitality branded hotels (including the Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn brands, the latter of which is one of the most recognized brand names in America), (iii) creating a new strategic alliance with BHR, which will be the nation's largest operator of third party owned and branded hotels, (iv) establishing an independent third party lessee for the Bristol hotels acquired by FelCor and (v) enhancing FelCor's critical mass and market presence. In addition, these perceived benefits may be obtained without impairing or diminishing FelCor's long-standing relationship with Promus or its more recent relationship with Sheraton. Bristol is one of the largest owner/operators of full-service hotels in the United States, currently operating 101 hotels containing over 29,306 rooms, of which 89 hotels are owned or leased by Bristol. Bristol's hotels are primarily full-service hotels that operate in the mid-scale to upscale segments of the lodging industry. Bristol is the largest franchisee of Holiday Hospitality Corporation ("Holiday Hospitality") brands of hotels, including Crowne Plaza(R), Holiday Inns(R) and Holiday Inns Select(R) hotels, and also operates 19 hotels under other hotel brands, including Hampton Inn(R), Courtyard by Marriott(R) and Fairfield Inn(R). Bristol's hotels are located in 22 states and Canada, with hotels concentrated in major metropolitan areas of the South, East, Southwest and Pacific regions of the United States. For additional information regarding the hotels to be acquired by FelCor in the Merger, see "Recent Developments -- Pending Merger with Bristol -- FelCor/Bristol Combined." Expanded Credit Facility. FelCor has entered into negotiations with its lenders (i) to increase its existing $550 million unsecured revolving credit facility up to $1 billion, and (ii) to provide a $200 million unsecured term loan facility. The purposes of these facilities will be to fund investments in existing and additional hotel properties, to refinance a portion of the debt assumed by FelCor from Bristol pursuant to the Merger and for general corporate purposes. S-4 5 THE OFFERING Securities Offered......... 5,000,000 Depositary Shares, each representing a 1/100 interest in a share of FelCor's % Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. Each owner of a Depositary Share is entitled to all proportional rights, preferences, privileges and obligations of an owner of Series B Preferred Stock. See "Description of Series B Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares." Ranking.................... With respect to the payment of dividends and amounts upon liquidation, the Series B Preferred Stock will rank pari passu with FelCor's outstanding $1.95 Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") and senior to FelCor's outstanding common stock (the "Common Stock"). See "Description of Series B Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares." Use of Proceeds............ The net proceeds from the sale of the Depositary Shares will be used to repay borrowings under FelCor's unsecured revolving credit facility used to acquire eight hotels on April , 1998. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Recent Developments -- Pending Acquisition." Dividends.................. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are cumulative from the date of original issuance, with each Depositary Share receiving dividends at the rate of % of the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $ per annum per Depositary Share). Dividends will be payable quarterly on or before the last day of January, April, July, October (or, if not a business day, on the next succeeding business day) commencing on July 31, 1998. The first dividend will be prorated to reflect the original issuance of such Depositary Shares during a dividend period. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will accrue from the date of the original issuance of the Depositary Shares regardless of whether FelCor (i) is prohibited by contract from the current payment of dividends, (ii) has sufficient earnings or funds otherwise legally available for the payment of dividends or (iii) has declared any such dividends. See "Description of Series B Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares -- Dividends." Liquidation Preference..... The Series B Preferred Stock will have a liquidation preference of $2,500 per share (equivalent to $25 per Depositary Share), plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends. See "Description of Series B Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares -- Liquidation Preference." Redemption................. The Series B Preferred Stock is not redeemable prior to , 2003. On and after , 2003, the Series B Preferred Stock may be redeemed for cash at the option of FelCor, in whole or in part, at an amount equal to $25 per Depositary Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to the date of redemption. The redemption price (other than the portion consisting of accrued and unpaid dividends) shall be payable solely out of the sale proceeds of other capital stock of FelCor, which may include other series of preferred stock. See "Description of Series B Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares -- Redemption." S-5 6 Voting Rights.............. Holders of Depositary Shares generally will not have any voting rights, except as required by law. However, in the event dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the holders of Depositary Shares (voting together, as a single class, with the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and of any other series of FelCor's preferred stock having like voting rights that are then exercisable) will be entitled to vote for the election of a total of two directors to FelCor's board of directors until all dividends accumulated on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been fully paid or set aside for payment. See "Description of Series B Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares -- Voting Rights." No Conversion Rights....... The Series B Preferred Stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities of FelCor. Under certain transfer restrictions contained in FelCor's Charter, however, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock may become excess shares in order, among other things, to ensure that FelCor remains qualified as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes. See "Certain Charter, Bylaw and Statutory Provisions -- Charter and Bylaw Provisions -- Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer " in the accompanying Prospectus. Restrictions on Ownership.................. To ensure that FelCor can satisfy certain ownership limitations applicable to REITs, no person may own (including ownership attributed to such person for Federal income tax purposes) more than 9.9% of any class of FelCor's capital stock. See "Certain Charter, Bylaw and Statutory Provisions -- Charter and Bylaw Provisions -- Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer " in the accompanying Prospectus. Listing.................... FelCor is applying to list the Depositary Shares for trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). If FelCor receives approval for the listing of such shares, trading on the NYSE is expected to commence within the 30-day period following the initial delivery of the Depositary Shares. S-6 7 RISK FACTORS An investment in the Series B Preferred Stock involves various risks. Investors should carefully consider the matters discussed below and beginning on page 5 of the accompanying Prospectus. RISK THAT PENDING ACQUISITION AND MERGER WILL NOT CLOSE FelCor has agreed to acquire eight hotels from Starwood, provided that certain conditions are met. If these conditions are not met, it is possible that FelCor will not acquire these hotels. If FelCor does not acquire the eight hotels from Starwood, then the net proceeds from the Offering would be used, at least temporarily, to pay a portion of FelCor's other existing indebtedness. In addition, a number of conditions must be satisfied before completion of the Merger with Bristol, including stockholder approval of the transaction by both FelCor and Bristol. The holders of a majority of Bristol's common shares have agreed to vote in favor of the transaction. If the conditions to the Merger are not satisfied before September 30, 1998, either FelCor or Bristol may choose to terminate the Merger Agreement. INTEGRATION OF BRISTOL'S ASSETS; REALIZATION OF ANTICIPATED BENEFITS If the Merger is completed, it will more than double the number of hotels owned by FelCor. Although the newly acquired hotels will be operated by BHR under long-term leases, FelCor will be required to integrate these hotels into its hotel portfolio and may need additional people and resources to handle the increased work load. If FelCor is unable to successfully integrate the newly acquired hotels into its portfolio, FelCor's business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer. A large number of the Bristol hotels to be acquired by FelCor in the Merger are in the process of, or awaiting, substantial renovation, modernization and repositioning. The exchange ratio was established, in part, based on the anticipated effects of such renovations, modernization and repositioning plans. If the implementation of these plans does not yield the anticipated results, FelCor may have paid too much for the Bristol hotels. RISKS OF LEVERAGE, FLOATING RATE DEBT AND INABILITY TO RETAIN EARNINGS Bristol is more highly leveraged than FelCor, which will result in an increase in FelCor's leverage following the Merger. At December 31, 1997, on a pro forma basis, FelCor would have had outstanding indebtedness of $1.5 billion, 46% of which would have been secured. FelCor's pro forma ratio of EBITDA to interest paid for the year ended December 31, 1997 was 3.4x. Of FelCor's pro forma indebtedness at December 31, 1997, $434.2 million provided for the payment of interest at floating rates. Most of this floating rate debt bears interest at a rate equal to between 0.45% and 1.75% plus the 30-day LIBOR. At December 31, 1997, the 30-day LIBOR was 5.71875%. Changes in economic conditions could result in higher interest rates, thereby increasing FelCor's interest expense on its floating rate debt and reducing funds available for distribution to FelCor's stockholders. In order to qualify as a REIT, FelCor must distribute to its stockholders, annually, at least 95% of its net taxable income (excluding capital gains) and, accordingly, cannot retain any substantial portion of its earnings to meet its capital needs. After the Merger, FelCor anticipates refinancing a substantial portion of Bristol's long-term debt. However, the capital markets are volatile, and there can be no assurance that FelCor will be successful in refinancing Bristol's debt. TAX RISKS Failure to Distribute Bristol's Earnings and Profits in 1998 Would Cause FelCor to Fail to Qualify as a REIT. At the end of any taxable year, a REIT may not have any accumulated earnings and profits (described generally for federal income tax purposes as cumulative undistributed net income) from a non-REIT corporation. Accordingly, by the end of 1998, FelCor must pay out to its stockholders an amount equal to accumulated earnings and profits through the date of the Merger. If FelCor failed to pay out such amount for its 1998 taxable year, it would fail to qualify as a REIT. S-7 8 Sale of Assets Acquired from Bristol Within Ten Years After the Merger Will Result in Corporate Tax. If FelCor sells any asset acquired from Bristol within ten years after the Merger and recognizes gain, FelCor will be taxed at the highest corporate rate on an amount equal to the fair market value of the asset minus the adjusted basis of the asset as of the Merger. BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES FelCor is a REIT that, at April 23, 1998, owned interests in 76 hotels with a aggregate of 18,596 suites/ rooms in 28 states through its 92.7% general partner interest in the Operating Partnership. Fifty-two of the FelCor Hotels are operated as Embassy Suites hotels (of which 28 were converted from other brands), 14 are operated as Doubletree Guest Suites hotels, seven are operated as Sheraton hotels (five of which are upscale, full-service traditional non-suite hotels), two are operated as traditional non-suite Doubletree hotels (one of which is in the process of conversion to a Doubletree hotel) and one is operated as a Hilton Suites hotel. Sixty-six of the FelCor Hotels are managed by Promus, which includes Doubletree. Promus is the largest operator of all-suite, full-service hotels in the United States. Of the remaining FelCor Hotels, seven are managed by Sheraton and three are managed by independent management companies. FelCor is the owner of the largest number of Embassy Suites hotels in the world. FelCor has historically focused upon the acquisition of hotels in the upscale all-suite and full-service segments of the lodging industry. For additional information regarding the FelCor Hotels, see "Recent Developments -- Pending Merger With Bristol -- FelCor/Bristol Combined." To enable FelCor to satisfy certain requirements for qualification as a REIT, neither it nor the Operating Partnership can operate the hotels in which they invest. Accordingly, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries typically lease the FelCor Hotels to DJONT Operations, L.L.C., or one of its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, "DJONT"), pursuant to leases ("Percentage Leases") generally with initial terms of ten years that provide for rent equal to the greater of a minimum base rent ("Base Rent") or a percentage rent ("Percentage Rent") based on hotel suite/room revenues and food and beverage revenues and rents. All of the voting interests in DJONT (constituting a 50% equity interest) are beneficially owned by Hervey A. Feldman and Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr. Mr. Feldman and Mr. Corcoran are co-founders of FelCor, serve on its Board of Directors and, respectively, are the Chairman of the Board and the President and Chief Executive Officer of FelCor. The remaining non-voting 50% equity interest in DJONT is beneficially owned by the children of Charles N. Mathewson, a director of FelCor. FelCor seeks to increase operating cash flow and enhance stockholder value through both internal growth and acquisitions. It seeks to acquire, at less than replacement cost, existing hotels that are underperforming, due to the need for capital improvements or poor management or franchise affiliation, and to add value through its active asset management and strategic investment of capital. FelCor also may add suites at its existing hotels where demand warrants and expects to acquire 90% interests in four to seven new Embassy Suites hotels to be developed by Promus and in which Promus will own the remaining interest. Subject to reaching agreement on specific sites and budgets for development of these new hotels, the first of these hotels is expected to open in late 1999. FelCor's internal growth strategy is to utilize its asset management expertise to improve the quality of its hotels by renovating, upgrading and repositioning, thereby improving the revenue performance of its hotels, and to participate through the Percentage Leases in any resulting growth in revenues. S-8 9 RECENT DEVELOPMENTS RECENT ACQUISITIONS During the period from January 1, 1998, to April 23, 1998, FelCor acquired three hotels with an aggregate of 596 suites and rooms for approximately $57.4 million in cash and Units in the Operating Partnership. These three hotels are (i) a 194-suite Doubletree Guest Suites hotel located in downtown Columbus, Ohio, (ii) a traditional 154-room upscale full-service hotel with approximately 13,000 sq. ft. of meeting space located in Wilmington, Delaware which is scheduled to be expanded by approximately 100 rooms and converted into a Doubletree hotel during 1999, and (iii) a traditional 248-room upscale full- service Doubletree hotel with approximately 11,000 sq. ft. of meeting space located in Aurora, Colorado. PENDING ACQUISITION FelCor has entered into an agreement to purchase eight upscale full-service, all-suite hotels from Starwood for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $245 million (see "Use of Proceeds"). These hotels have a total of 1,898 suites and consist of five Embassy Suites hotels and three Doubletree Guest Suites hotels located in seven states. Following the acquisition, six of the eight hotels are expected to be operated as Embassy Suites hotels and be managed by Promus. The two remaining hotels are expected to be operated as Sheraton Suites hotels and will continue to be managed by Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. FelCor is currently evaluating a number of other potential hotel acquisition opportunities. PENDING MERGER WITH BRISTOL General On March 23, 1998, FelCor entered into a Merger Agreement with Bristol under which the owned and leased hotel assets of Bristol will be merged with and into FelCor. As a consequence of the Merger, Bristol's stockholders will acquire approximately 44% of the FelCor Common Stock outstanding immediately following the Merger and FelCor's board of directors will be reconstituted. In anticipation of the Merger, Bristol will spin-off its hotel operating business as a separate public company named Bristol Hotels & Resorts. The Bristol hotels acquired in the Merger will be leased to BHR. The proposed Merger with Bristol, in addition to being accretive to FelCor's forecasted FFO in each of the years 1998 through 2000, will provide FelCor with a number of perceived advantages, such as (i) providing FelCor with further diversification into a new segment of the lodging industry, with a resulting increase in acquisition and growth opportunities, (ii) making FelCor the owner of the largest number of Holiday Hospitality branded hotels (including the Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn brands, the latter of which is one of the most recognized brand names in America), (iii) creating a new strategic alliance with BHR, which will be the nation's largest operator of third party owned and branded hotels, (iv) establishing an independent third party lessee for the Bristol hotels acquired by FelCor and (v) enhancing FelCor's critical mass and market presence. In addition, these perceived benefits may be obtained without impairing or diminishing FelCor's long-standing relationship with Promus or its more recent relationship with Sheraton. Bristol is one of the largest owner/operators of full-service hotels in the United States, currently operating 101 hotels containing over 29,306 rooms, of which 89 hotels are owned or leased by Bristol. Bristol's hotels are primarily full-service hotels that operate in the mid-scale to upscale segments of the lodging industry. Bristol is the largest franchisee of Holiday Hospitality brands of hotels, including Crowne Plaza(R), Holiday Inns(R) and Holiday Inns Select(R) hotels, and also operates 19 hotels under other hotel brands, including Hampton Inn(R), Courtyard by Marriott(R) and Fairfield Inn(R). Bristol's hotels are located in 22 states and Canada, with hotels concentrated in major metropolitan areas of the South, East, Southwest and Pacific regions of the United States. For additional information regarding the hotels to be acquired by FelCor in the Merger, see "-- FelCor/Bristol Combined." On February 2, 1998, Bristol announced a definitive agreement to acquire 20 midwestern hotels with a total of 3,456 rooms (the "Omaha Acquisition"), through a merger with Omaha Hotel, Inc. and the purchase S-9 10 of an individual hotel. Consummation of the Omaha Acquisition, which is scheduled to close prior to the Merger, is subject to certain conditions and there can be no assurance that it will be consummated if any such condition is not satisfied. The hotels included in the Omaha Acquisition consist of nine full-service Holiday Inn hotels, five Holiday Inn Express(R) hotels, five Hampton Inn hotels and one Homewood Suites(R) hotel, with locations in Omaha, Nebraska; Moline, Illinois; Davenport, Iowa; central Kansas and Midland/Odessa, Texas. Seven of the nine full-service hotels have undergone major property improvement plans over the past 24 months. Of the five Holiday Inn Express hotels, one is a new construction project set to open for business in mid-1998 and two others are newly built hotels that opened in the past two years. Assuming that the Omaha Acquisition and the Merger close as currently contemplated, the hotels that are the subject of the Omaha Acquisition will be acquired by FelCor in the Merger. In November 1997, Bristol initiated a comprehensive redevelopment and rebranding program (the "Redevelopment and Rebranding Program") which entails exterior and interior reconstruction of and renovations to 41 of its hotels that were acquired from Holiday Inns, Inc. in April 1997, three hotels acquired during 1997, as well as the rebranding of seven hotels operated under Bristol's own brand names to Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn & Suites properties. The Redevelopment and Rebranding Program is expected to be substantially complete by the end of 1999. FelCor currently expects to continue and fund the Redevelopment and Rebranding Program following the Merger. In addition to the renovations, Bristol expects to rebrand 13 of its 41 Holiday Inn hotels primarily to the Crowne Plaza brand. Bristol believes the conversions to the Crowne Plaza brand will enable the hotels to more effectively compete in the markets in which they operate. FelCor/Bristol Combined As a result of the Merger, Bristol will be merged into FelCor, which will be the surviving corporation and which will change its name to "FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated." FelCor will succeed to the ownership, either directly or through Bristol's subsidiaries, of Bristol's 89 owned or leased hotels, and of the 20 hotels to be acquired by Bristol in the Omaha Acquisition (collectively, the "Bristol Hotels"). Following the Merger, FelCor will continue to operate as a REIT. It is expected that FelCor will contribute ownership of the Bristol Hotels to the Operating Partnership, in which, following such contribution, FelCor will have a 95.7% general partner interest, on a pro forma basis. S-10 11 Following the Merger, FelCor will own interests in 193 hotels (assuming completion of FelCor's purchase of eight hotels from Starwood, the Omaha Acquisition and the Redevelopment and Rebranding Program), with an aggregate of 49,255 suites/rooms in 34 states and Canada, as shown in the following table.

The FelCor Hotels will continue to be leased by the Operating Partnership to DJONT. DJONT is currently considering the possibility of transferring its leasehold interests to unrelated third parties, including the possible transfer of leases covering ten hotels to BHR. The Bristol Hotels will be leased by the Operating Partnership to BHR, pursuant to leases similar to the Percentage Leases. BHR and FelCor will be independent public companies with no overlap in management or boards of directors. However, BHR's two largest stockholders, following the Merger, will have significant ownership interests in FelCor and will have representatives on the Boards of Directors of both FelCor and BHR, including the Chairman of the Board of FelCor. Because of this ownership and the substantial relationship between the two companies arising out of BHR's leasing and operation of the Bristol Hotels following the Merger, it is anticipated that the two companies will have a strategic alliance in the acquisition and redevelopment of additional hotels. FelCor will maintain its existing headquarters facilities in Dallas, and BHR will assume responsibility for Bristol's employees and existing headquarters facilities in Dallas. S-11 12 At December 31, 1997, on a pro forma basis, FelCor would have had outstanding indebtedness of $1.5 billion, as compared to $477 million in actual total indebtedness for FelCor alone. FelCor's pro forma ratio of EBITDA to interest paid for the year ended December 31, 1997 would have been 3.4x. Of FelCor's pro forma indebtedness at December 31, 1997, $434.2 million would have provided for the payment of interest at floating rates. See "Selected Consolidated Pro Forma and Historical Financial Data." Following the Merger, FelCor anticipates refinancing a substantial portion of Bristol's debt through the issuance of debt and equity securities. FelCor will seek to refinance a portion of the Bristol debt to reduce interest cost and replace certain existing secured debt of Bristol with unsecured debt or equity financing. No assurance can be given that FelCor will be successful in effecting any such refinancing. In connection with the Merger, the Board of Directors of FelCor will be reconstituted. The number of directors will increase from seven to 10 members. The seven directors of FelCor will continue as directors of FelCor following the Merger, but their terms of office will be revised as a result of the Merger. Hervey A. Feldman, a co-founder of FelCor and its Chairman of the Board, will retire from the FelCor Board at FelCor's 1998 Annual Meeting and will assume the title of Chairman Emeritus. The following three Bristol directors will be added to the Board of Directors of FelCor in connection with the Merger: Donald J. McNamara (who will become Chairman of the Board of FelCor), Robert L. Lutz, Jr., and Richard C. North. In connection with the Merger, each of Bass America, Inc. and Holiday Corporation (the "Holiday Entities"), and United/Harvey Holdings, L.P. ("Holdings"), who together are the majority stockholders of Bristol, will agree to vote their FelCor Common Stock to elect one designee of each of the Holiday Entities and Holdings to the Board of Directors of FelCor, so long as each of the Holiday Entities and their affiliates, on the one hand, and Holdings and its affiliates, on the other hand, continue to own at least 25% of the FelCor Common Stock obtained by them in the Merger. Other than Mr. Feldman's retirement and the appointment of Mr. McNamara as Chairman of the Board of FelCor, the officers of FelCor are not expected to change as a result of the Merger. S-12 13 USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds to FelCor from the sale of the Depositary Shares offered hereby is expected to be approximately $121.0 million. FelCor will contribute the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for preferred units having economic terms substantially identical with the Series B Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Units"). The Operating Partnership will apply such proceeds to the repayment of borrowings under FelCor's $550 million unsecured line of credit (the "Line of Credit") used to fund the acquisition of eight hotels from Starwood announced on April 20, 1998. See "Recent Developments -- Pending Acquisition." On April 20, 1998, approximately $182 million of indebtedness was outstanding on FelCor's Line of Credit, which bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 8.4%. CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the capitalization of FelCor as of December 31, 1997 and on a pro forma basis assuming that each of the following occurred as of December 31, 1997: (i) the Offering and the application of the net proceeds therefrom as described under "Use of Proceeds," (ii) the acquisition of the 11 hotels described under "Recent Developments -- Recent Acquisitions" and "-- Pending Acquisition," (iii) the Omaha Acquisition, (iv) the Spin-Off and (v) the Merger. The capitalization table should be read in conjunction with (i) "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and FelCor's financial statements and notes hereto included in FelCor's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997 and (ii) the unaudited pro forma financial statements of FelCor included elsewhere herein.

- --------------- (1) In 1997, FelCor adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which established new standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. Earnings per share for all periods presented have been calculated according to this standard. Basic earnings per share have been computed by dividing net income applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share have been computed by dividing net income applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares and equivalents outstanding. Common share and unit equivalents that have a dilutive effect represent stock options issued to officers and key employees and unvested restricted stock grants issued to certain officers of FelCor. (2) Pro forma cash dividends per common share do not include a one-time distribution of the accumulated earnings and profits of Bristol. (3) The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved in March 1995 by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), defines Funds From Operations as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after comparable adjustments for FelCor's portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities and joint ventures. FelCor believes that Funds From Operations is helpful to investors as a measure of the performance of an equity REIT because, along with cash flow from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors with an indication of the ability of FelCor to incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs. FelCor computes Funds From Operations in accordance with standards established by NAREIT which may not be comparable to Funds From Operations 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 FelCor. Funds From Operations does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of FelCor's financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities S-16 17 FELCOR SUITE HOTELS, INC. SELECTED CONSOLIDATED PRO FORMA AND HISTORICAL OPERATING AND FINANCIAL DATA -- (CONTINUED) (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of FelCor's liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund FelCor's cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions. Funds From Operations may include funds that may not be available for management's discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties. The following is a reconciliation of net income to Funds From Operations:

(4) Weighted average common shares and units are computed including dilutive options, unvested restricted stock grants and assuming conversion of convertible preferred stock to common stock. (5) EBITDA is computed by adding net income, minority interest in the Operating Partnership, interest expense, FelCor's portion of interest expense from unconsolidated entities, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, extraordinary expenses and cash distributions paid by unconsolidated entities and deducting extraordinary income and equity in income from unconsolidated entities.

S-18 19 DESCRIPTION OF SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK AND DEPOSITARY SHARES This description of the particular terms of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Depositary Shares offered hereby supplements, and to the extent inconsistent therewith replaces, the description of the general terms and provisions of the Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares set forth in the accompanying Prospectus, to which description reference is hereby made. GENERAL FelCor is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share ("Preferred Stock"), in one or more series, with such preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption in each case, if any, as the Board of Directors of FelCor may determine by adoption of applicable articles supplementary (an "Articles Supplementary") to FelCor's Charter, without any further vote or action by the stockholders. See "Description of Preferred Stock -- Terms" in the accompanying Prospectus. On April 20, 1998, a form of Articles Supplementary was adopted determining the terms of a series of Preferred Stock consisting of 50,000 shares, designated % Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series B Articles Supplementary"). The following summary of the terms and provisions of the Series B Preferred Stock does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the pertinent sections of the Charter and the Series B Articles Supplementary, each of which is available from FelCor. FelCor intends to contribute or otherwise transfer the net proceeds of the sale of the Depositary Shares to the Operating Partnership in exchange for Series B Preferred Units in the Operating Partnership, the economic terms of which will be substantially identical to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Operating Partnership will be required to make all required distributions on the Series B Preferred Units (which will mirror the payments of dividends, including accrued and unpaid dividends upon redemption, and of the liquidation preference amount of the Series B Preferred Stock) prior to any distribution of cash or assets to the holders of the Units or to the holders of any other interests in the Operating Partnership, except for any other series of preference units ranking on a parity with the Series B Preferred Units as to distributions and/or liquidation rights and except for distributions required to enable FelCor to maintain its qualification as a REIT. Each Depositary Share represents a 1/100 fractional interest in a share of Series B Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be deposited with SunTrust Bank Atlanta, Georgia, as Depositary (the "Preferred Stock Depositary"), under a Deposit Agreement (the "Depositary Agreement") among FelCor, the Preferred Stock Depositary and the holders from time to time of the depositary receipts (the "Depositary Receipts") issued by the Preferred Stock Depositary thereunder. The Depositary Receipts will evidence the Depositary Shares. Subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement, each holder of a Depositary Receipt evidencing a Depositary Share will be entitled to all the rights and preferences of a 1/100 fractional interest in a share of Series B Preferred Stock (including dividend, voting, redemption and liquidation rights and preferences). See "Description of Depositary Shares" in the accompanying Prospectus. RANKING The Series B Preferred Stock ranks pari passu with FelCor's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock and senior to the Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor. While any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, FelCor may not authorize, create or increase the authorized amount of any class or series of stock that ranks senior to the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up without the consent of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. However, FelCor may create additional classes of stock, increase the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock or issue series of Preferred Stock ranking junior to or on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock with respect, in S-19 20 each case, to the payment of dividends and amounts upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up without the consent of any holder of Series B Preferred Stock. See "-- Voting Rights" below. DIVIDENDS Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of FelCor, out of funds legally available for payment, cash distributions declared or paid for the corresponding period payable at the rate of % of the liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to $ per annum per Depositary Share). Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are payable quarterly in arrears on the last calendar day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing July 31, 1998 (and, in the case of any accrued but unpaid dividends, at such additional times and for such interim periods, if any, as determined by the Board of Directors). Each such dividend is payable to holders of record as they appear on the stock records of FelCor at the close of business on such record dates, not exceeding 60 days preceding the payment dates thereof, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors. Dividends will be cumulative, whether or not in any dividend period or periods there shall be funds of FelCor legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not such dividends are authorized. Accumulations of dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock will not bear interest. Dividends payable on the Series B Preferred Stock will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Except as provided in the next sentence, no dividend will be declared or paid on any Parity Stock (as herein defined) unless full cumulative dividends have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid, or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for such payment, on the Series B Preferred Stock for all prior dividend periods and the then current dividend period. If accrued dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock for all prior dividend periods have not been paid in full, then any dividend declared on the Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock for any dividend period will be declared ratably in proportion to accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock. Unless all dividends then required to be paid on the Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid, or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payment, FelCor will not (i) declare, pay or set apart funds for the payment of any dividend or other distribution with respect to any Junior Stock (as herein defined) or (ii) except as set forth in the following sentence, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any Junior Stock (subject to certain exceptions), through a sinking fund or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, FelCor may, at any time, acquire shares of its capital stock, without regard to rank, for the purpose of preserving its status as a REIT or for purposes of an employee benefit plan of FelCor. As used herein, (i) the term "dividend" does not include dividends payable solely in shares of Junior Stock on Junior Stock, or in options, warrants or rights to holders of Junior Stock to subscribe for or purchase any Junior Stock and (ii) the term "Junior Stock" means the Common Stock, and any other class of capital stock of FelCor now or hereafter issued and outstanding that ranks junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor and (iii) the term "Parity Stock" means any other class or series of capital stock of FelCor now or hereafter issued and outstanding (including the Series A Preferred Stock) that ranks equally with the Series B Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends and amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor. The Operating Partnership will be required to make all required distributions to FelCor on the Series B Preferred Units that will mirror FelCor's payment of dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock (including accrued and unpaid dividends upon redemption, and of the liquidation preference amount of the Series B Preferred Stock) prior to any distribution of cash or assets to the holders of the Units or to the holders of any other interests in the Operating Partnership, except for distributions required in connection with any other shares of FelCor ranking senior to or on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividends and/or liquidation rights and except for distributions required to enable FelCor to maintain its qualification as a REIT. FelCor's Line of Credit and the indenture under which FelCor's senior notes are issued include covenants that restrict the ability of FelCor to declare and pay dividends. In general, these agreements contain exceptions S-20 21 to the limitations to allow the Operating Partnership to make distributions necessary to allow FelCor to maintain its status as a REIT. FelCor does not believe that these covenants will adversely affect the ability of the Operating Partnership to make distributions in an amount sufficient to permit FelCor to pay dividends with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock. REDEMPTION Shares of Series B Preferred Stock are not redeemable by FelCor prior to , 2003. On and after , 2003, FelCor at its option upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice, may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock (and the Preferred Stock Depositary will redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing the shares of Series B Preferred Stock so redeemed upon not less than 30 days' written notice to the holders thereof), in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at a redemption price of $2,500.00 per share (equivalent to $25.00 per Depositary Share), plus all accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date fixed for redemption (except as provided below), without interest, to the extent FelCor has funds legally available therefor. The redemption price of the Series B Preferred Stock (other than any portion thereof consisting of accrued and unpaid distributions) may be paid solely from the sale proceeds of other capital stock of FelCor and not from any other source. For purposes of the preceding sentence, "capital stock" means any common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, interests, participations, or other ownership interests (however designated) and any rights (other than debt securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities) or options to purchase any of the foregoing. Holders of Depositary Receipts evidencing Depositary Shares to be redeemed shall surrender such Depositary Receipts at the place designated in such notice and shall be entitled to the redemption price and any accrued and unpaid distributions payable upon such redemption following such surrender. If notice of redemption of any Depositary Shares has been given and if the funds necessary for such redemption have been set aside by FelCor in trust for the benefit of the holders of any Depositary Shares so called for redemption, then from and after the redemption date distributions will cease to accrue on such Depositary Shares, such Depositary Shares shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights of the holders of such shares will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption price. If fewer than all of the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata (as nearly as may be practicable without creating fractional Depositary Shares) or by any other equitable method determined by FelCor. See "Description of Preferred Stock -- Redemption" in the accompanying Prospectus. Notice of redemption will be given by mail or by publication (with subsequent prompt notice by mail) in The Wall Street Journal or The New York Times or, if neither is then being published, in any other daily newspaper of national circulation, not less than 30 business days nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date. A similar notice furnished by FelCor will be mailed by the Preferred Stock Depositary, by first class mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the Depositary Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses as they appear on the share transfer records of the Preferred Stock Depositary. No failure to give such notice or any defect thereto or in the mailing thereof shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares except as to the holder to whom notice was defective or not given. Each notice shall state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the redemption price; (iii) the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed (and the corresponding number of Depositary Shares); (iv) the place or places where the Depositary Receipts evidencing the Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that distributions on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such redemption date. If fewer than all the Depositary Shares held by any holder are to be redeemed, the notice mailed to such holder shall also specify the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed from such holder. The holders of Depositary Receipts at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payable with respect to the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Depositary Receipts on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the redemption thereof between such Dividend Record Date and the corresponding Dividend Payment Date or FelCor's default in the payment of the dividend due. Except as provided above, FelCor will make no payment or allowance for unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, on shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares to be redeemed. S-21 22 The shares of Series B Preferred Stock have no stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption provisions (except as provided under "Description of Preferred Stock -- Restrictions on Ownership and Transfers" in the accompanying Prospectus). Unless all dividends then required to be paid on the Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid, or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set apart for payment, the Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock may not be redeemed in whole or in part and FelCor may not, except as set forth in the following sentence, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock, otherwise than pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to all holders of Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, FelCor may, at any time, acquire shares of its capital stock, without regard to rank, for the purpose of preserving its status as a REIT or for purposes of an employee benefit plan of FelCor. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE The holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor, whether voluntary or involuntary, $2,500 per share of Series B Preferred Stock (equivalent to $25 per Depositary Share) plus an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to all dividends (whether or not earned or declared) accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution to such holders ("Liquidation Preference"), and no more. Until the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock have been paid the Liquidation Preference in full, no payment will be made to any holder of Junior Stock upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor, the assets of FelCor, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock are insufficient to pay in full the Liquidation Preference and the liquidation preference applicable with respect to any such Parity Stock, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, will be distributed among the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock and any such Parity Stock, ratably, in accordance with the respective amounts which would be payable on such shares of Series B Preferred Stock and any such Parity Stock if all amounts payable thereon were to be paid in full. Neither a consolidation or merger of FelCor with another corporation, a statutory share exchange by FelCor, nor a sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of FelCor's assets will be considered a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, voluntary or involuntary, of FelCor. VOTING RIGHTS In any matter in which the Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to vote (as expressly described herein or as may be required by law), including any action by written consent, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to 100 votes, each of which 100 votes may be directed separately by the holder thereof (or by any proxy or proxies of such holder). With respect to each share of Series B Preferred Stock, the holder thereof may designate up to 100 proxies, with each such proxy having the right to vote a whole number of votes (totaling 100 votes per share of Series B Preferred Stock). As a result, each Depositary Share will be entitled to one vote. If six quarterly dividends (whether or not consecutive) payable on the Series B Preferred Stock, or any Parity Stock, are in arrears, whether or not earned or declared, the number of directors then constituting the Board of Directors of FelCor will be increased by two and the holders of the Depositary Shares representing the Series B Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock, voting together as a single class ("Voting Preferred Shares"), will have the right to elect two additional directors to serve on the Board of Directors at an annual meeting of stockholders or a properly called special meeting of the holders of the Voting Preferred Shares and at each subsequent annual meeting of stockholders until all such dividends, together with the dividends for the current quarterly period, on the Voting Preferred Shares have been paid or declared and set aside for payment. The approval of two-thirds of the outstanding Depositary Shares representing the Series B Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock similarly affected, voting together as a single class, is required in order to (i) amend the Charter to affect materially and adversely the rights, preferences or voting power of the holders S-22 23 of the Series B Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock, (ii) enter into a share exchange that affects the Series B Preferred Stock, consolidate with or merge into another entity, or permit another entity to consolidate with or merge into FelCor, unless in each such case, each share of Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding without a material and adverse change to its terms and rights or is converted into or exchanged for a share of preferred stock of the surviving entity having preferences, rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption identical to those of a share of Series B Preferred Stock (except for changes that do not materially and adversely affect the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock) or (iii) amend the Charter to authorize, reclassify, create or increase the authorized amount of any class of stock having rights senior to the Series B Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or amounts upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FelCor. However, FelCor may increase the authorized number of shares of Preferred Stock and may create additional classes of Parity Stock and Junior Stock, increase the authorized number of shares of Parity Stock and Junior Stock and issue additional series of Parity Stock and Junior Stock, all without the consent of any holder of Series B Preferred Stock. CONVERSION RIGHTS Shares of Series B Preferred Stock are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of FelCor. EXCHANGE LISTING FelCor intends to make application to list the Depositary Shares on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance. If so approved, trading of the Depositary Shares on the NYSE is expected to commence within a 30-day period after the date of initial delivery of the Depositary Shares. See "Underwriting." The Series B Preferred Stock will not be so listed, and FelCor does not expect that there will be any trading market for the Series B Preferred Stock except as represented by Depositary Shares. TRANSFER AGENT The transfer agent and registrar for the Depositary Shares is SunTrust Bank, Atlanta, Georgia. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS The following, together with the information set forth in the accompanying Prospectus under "Federal Income Tax Considerations," is a summary of the material federal income tax considerations relevant to a prospective holder of Series B Preferred Stock who is a U.S. stockholder. As used herein, the term "U.S. stockholder" means a holder of Series B Preferred Stock that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation, partnership, or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia. (iii) an estate whose income from sources without the United States is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States, or (iv) any trust with respect to which (A) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and (B) one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust. This discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of taxation that may be relevant to a holder of Series B Preferred Stock in light of his personal investment or tax circumstances, or to certain types of stockholders subject to special treatment under the federal income tax laws (including insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations (except as discussed below), financial institutions, broker-dealers, foreign corporations and persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States). The statements of law in this discussion are based on current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), existing, temporary, and currently proposed Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, the legislative history of the Code, existing administrative rulings and practices of the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") and judicial decisions. No assurance can be given that future legislative, judicial, or administrative actions or decisions, which may be retroactive in effect, will not affect S-23 24 the accuracy of any statements in this Prospectus Supplement with respect to the transactions entered into or contemplated prior to the effective date of such changes. EACH PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER IS ADVISED TO CONSULT HIS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND SALE OF THE SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK, OF FELCOR'S ELECTION TO BE TAXED AS A REIT, INCLUDING THE FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, SALE, AND ELECTION AND OF POTENTIAL CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER Jenkens & Gilchrist, counsel to FelCor, will deliver an opinion to FelCor on the closing date of the Merger (the "Closing Date") to the effect that, based upon certain representations, assumptions, and conditions, the Merger will be treated for federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a) of the Code. In addition, Hunton & Williams, special tax counsel to FelCor, will deliver an opinion to FelCor on the Closing Date to the effect that FelCor qualified to be taxed as a REIT pursuant to sections 856 through 860 of the Code for its taxable years ended December 31, 1994 through December 31, 1997, and the Merger will not adversely affect FelCor's continued qualification as a REIT. To maintain its qualification as a REIT, following the Merger, FelCor will be required to distribute by the end of 1998 any current or accumulated earnings and profits ("Bristol's E&P") (as determined for federal income tax purposes) of Bristol remaining at the effective time of the Merger. At least 21 days before the Closing Date, Bristol will deliver to FelCor an estimate of Bristol's E&P as of the Closing Date, together with a confirmation of that estimate from Arthur Andersen LLP (the "E&P Statement"). Within three months after the Closing Date, Arthur Andersen LLP will prepare a final computation of Bristol's E&P as of the Closing Date (the "Final Statement"). In determining the amount that it must distribute by December 31, 1998, FelCor will rely on both the E&P Statement and the Final Statement. If FelCor fails to distribute all of Bristol's E&P by December 31, 1998 (or by January 31, 1999, if certain declaration and record date requirements are met), it will fail to qualify as a REIT. At the time of the Merger, FelCor intends to make an election pursuant to IRS Notice 88-19 to defer recognition of any "built-in gain" associated with the assets acquired from Bristol in the Merger (the "Bristol Assets"). As a result of such election, if FelCor sells any Bristol Asset within ten years after the Closing Date and recognizes gain upon such sale, FelCor will be subject to tax at the highest corporate rate on an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the recognized gain or (ii) the excess of (A) the fair market value of the Bristol Asset on the Closing Date over (B) the adjusted basis of the Bristol Asset on the Closing Date. Any such tax would reduce the amount available for distribution to stockholders. TAXATION OF FELCOR Hunton & Williams has acted as special tax counsel to FelCor in connection with the Offering. In the opinion of Hunton & Williams, FelCor qualified to be taxed as a REIT pursuant to sections 856 through 860 of the Code for its taxable years ended December 31, 1994 through December 31, 1997, and FelCor's organization and current and proposed method of operation will enable it to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. Investors should be aware, however, that opinions of counsel are not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service or any court. It must be emphasized that Hunton & Williams' opinion is based on various assumptions and is conditioned upon certain representations made by FelCor as to factual matters, including representations regarding the nature of FelCor's properties and the future conduct of its business. Moreover, such qualification and taxation as a REIT depend upon FelCor's ability to meet on a continuing basis, through actual annual operating results, distribution levels, and stock ownership, the various qualification tests imposed under the Code. No assurance can be given that the actual results of FelCor's operations for any particular taxable year will satisfy such requirements. For a discussion of the consequences of failure to qualify as a REIT, see "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Failure to Qualify" in the accompanying Prospectus. S-24 25 TAXATION OF STOCKHOLDERS OF FELCOR Tax Treatment of Depositary Shares. An owner of Depositary Shares will be treated for federal income tax purposes as owning the portion of the Series B Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares. Distributions to Holders. As long as FelCor qualifies as a REIT, distributions with respect to the Preferred Stock, including the Series B Preferred Stock offered hereby, will be taxable as ordinary income (to the extent such distributions are not designated as capital gain dividends or retained capital gains) to the extent of FelCor's current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined for federal income tax purposes ("E&P") and will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally available to corporations. For purposes of determining whether distributions are out of E&P, the E&P of FelCor will be allocated first to FelCor's outstanding Preferred Stock, including the Series B Preferred Stock, and then to FelCor's outstanding Common Stock. Distributions with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock in excess of FelCor's E&P (an "excess distribution") will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the holder, to the extent of the holder's basis in such stock (and will correspondingly reduce such stock basis) and then as capital gain, to the extent of any excess distribution over the holder's basis (assuming the holder holds the Preferred Stock as a capital asset). Any distribution declared by FelCor in October, November or December of any year and payable to a stockholder of record on a specified date in any such month shall be treated as both paid by FelCor and received by the stockholder on December 31 of such year, provided that the distribution is actually paid by FelCor during January of the following taxable year. Distributions that are designated as capital gain dividends will be taxed as long-term capital gains (to the extent they do not exceed FelCor's net capital gain for the taxable year) without regard to the period for which the stockholder has held his Series B Preferred Stock. However, corporate holders may be required to treat up to 20% of certain capital gain dividends as ordinary income. FelCor may elect to treat all or a portion of the net long-term capital gain it receives in a taxable year as having been distributed to FelCor's stockholders. In that case, FelCor's stockholders would include in income their proportionate share of FelCor's undistributed long-term capital gain. In addition, the stockholders would be deemed to have paid their proportionate share of the tax paid by FelCor, which would be credited or refunded to the stockholders. Each stockholder's basis in his Series B Preferred Stock would be increased by the amount of the undistributed long-term capital gain included in the stockholder's income less the stockholder's share of the tax paid by FelCor. Stockholders may not include in their individual income tax returns any net operating losses or capital losses of FelCor. Instead, such losses would be carried over by FelCor for potential offset against its future income (subject to certain limitations). Taxable distributions from FelCor and gain from the disposition of the Series B Preferred Stock will not be treated as passive activity income and, therefore, stockholders generally will not be able to apply any "passive activity losses" (such as losses from certain types of limited partnerships in which a stockholder is a limited partner) against such income. In addition, taxable distributions from FelCor generally will be treated as investment income for purposes of the investment interest limitations. Capital gains from the disposition of Series B Preferred Stock (or distributions treated as such), however, will be treated as investment income only if the stockholder so elects, in which case such capital gains will be taxed at ordinary income rates. FelCor will notify stockholders after the close of FelCor's taxable year as to the portions of the distributions attributable to that year that constitute ordinary income, return of capital and capital gain. Sale of Series B Preferred Stock. Upon the sale or exchange of Series B Preferred Stock, the holder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on such sale and the tax basis of such Series B Preferred Stock. Assuming such stock is held as a capital asset, such gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the Series B Preferred Stock has been held for more than one year. Otherwise, such capital gain or loss will be short-term. The tax rate applicable to such capital gain is described below under "-- Capital Gains and Losses." However, any loss recognized by a holder on the sale or exchange of a share of Series B Preferred Stock held for not more than six months (after applying certain holding period rules) will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of distributions from FelCor required to be treated by such holder as long-term capital gain. All or a portion of any loss realized upon a taxable disposition of Series B S-25 26 Preferred Stock may be disallowed if other shares of Series B Preferred Stock are purchased within 30 days before or after the disposition. Redemption of Series B Preferred Stock for Cash. The tax treatment accorded to any redemption by FelCor (as distinguished from a sale, exchange, or other disposition) of Series B Preferred Stock can only be determined on the basis of particular facts as to each holder at the time of redemption. In general, a holder of Series B Preferred Stock will recognize ordinary income to the extent of accrued but unpaid dividends and will recognize capital gain or loss measured by the difference between the amount received (less the amount attributable to accrued but unpaid dividends) by the holder upon the redemption and such holder's adjusted tax basis in the Series B Preferred Stock redeemed (provided the Series B Preferred Stock is held as a capital asset) if, taking into account the constructive ownership rules of Section 318 of the Code, such redemption (i) results in a "complete termination" of the holder's interest in all classes of FelCor stock under Section 302(b)(3) of the Code, (ii) is "substantially disproportionate" with respect to the holder's interest in FelCor under Section 302(b)(2) of the Code, or (iii) is "not essentially equivalent to a dividend" with respect to the holder under Section 302(b)(1) of the Code. A holder of Series B Preferred Stock that has held such stock as a capital asset and that owns no stock of FelCor, actually or constructively under Section 318 of the Code, immediately after FelCor's redemption of his Series B Preferred Stock will have a "complete termination" of such holder's interest in FelCor and such stockholder should therefore recognize capital gain or loss. A distribution to a holder will be "not essentially equivalent to a dividend" if it results in a "meaningful reduction" in the holder's stock interest in FelCor. If a holder of Series B Preferred Stock owns (actually or constructively) no FelCor Common Stock or an insubstantial percentage of the outstanding Common Stock, based upon current law, a redemption of Series B Preferred Stock from such holder generally should be considered "not essentially equivalent to a dividend." However, whether a distribution is "not essentially equivalent to a dividend" depends on all of the facts and circumstances and a holder of Series B Preferred Stock intending to rely on any of these tests at the time of the redemption should consult his own tax advisor to determine their application to his particular situation. If the redemption does not meet any of the three tests under Section 302 of the Code described above, then the redemption proceeds received for the Series B Preferred Stock will be treated as a distribution with respect to such stock as described above under "Distributions to Holders." In such a case, the holder's remaining adjusted tax basis in the redeemed Series B Preferred Stock will be transferred to any other stock of such holder in FelCor. If the holder of Series B Preferred Stock owns no other stock of FelCor, under certain circumstances, such basis may be transferred to a related party or it may be lost entirely. Redemption Premium. Under Section 305(c) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, if the redemption price of the Series B Preferred Stock exceeds its issue price by more than a de minimis amount (as determined under such regulations) then, in certain circumstances, the amount of such excess (the "redemption premium") may be deemed to be a constructive distribution (treated as a dividend to the extent of FelCor's E&P and otherwise subject to the treatment described above for distributions) which is taxable to the holder based on a constant yield method (as if it was original issue discount on a debt instrument) over the period the Series B Preferred Stock cannot be redeemed. However, the constant yield method, described above, which must be used to take into account the redemption premium on preferred stock, only applies if the subject preferred stock is (i) mandatorily redeemable, (ii) redeemable at the holder's option, or (iii) redeemable at the issuer's option if at the time of issue, based on all the facts and circumstances, it is more likely than not that the issuer will exercise such option. The applicable Treasury Regulations provide a "safe harbor" under which a right to redeem will not be treated as more likely than not to occur if (i) the issuer and the stockholder are not related within the meaning of such regulations; (ii) there are no plans, arrangements, or agreements that effectively require or are intended to compel the issuer to redeem the stock (disregarding, for this purpose, a separate mandatory redemption), and (iii) exercise of the right to redeem would not reduce the yield of the stock, as determined under such regulations. With respect to situation (iii) above, the Treasury Regulations further provide that, even if the redemption is more likely than not to occur, the constant yield method will not apply if the redemption premium is solely in the nature of a penalty for premature redemption. A redemption premium is S-26 27 considered to be a penalty for premature redemption only if it is paid as a result of changes in economic or market conditions over which neither the issuer of the stock nor the holder has legal or practical control. Redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock is not mandatory, such stock is not redeemable at the holder's option, and FelCor does not believe that at the time of issue it is more likely than not that the Series B Preferred Stock will be redeemed. Accordingly, FelCor does not believe that the existence of its optional redemption right will result in a constructive distribution to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock. However, no assurance can be given that the Service will not take a contrary position. Capital Gains and Losses. The highest marginal individual income tax rate is 39.6%. The maximum tax rate on net capital gains applicable to noncorporate taxpayers is 28% for sales and exchanges of assets held for more than one year but not more than 18 months, and 20% for sales and exchanges of assets held for more than 18 months. The maximum tax rate on long-term capital gain from the sale or exchange of "section 1250 property" (i.e., depreciable real property) held for more than 18 months is 25% to the extent that such gain would have been treated as ordinary income if the property were "section 1245 property." With respect to distributions designated by FelCor as capital gain dividends and any retained capital gains that FelCor is deemed to distribute, FelCor may designate (subject to certain limits) whether such a distribution is taxable to its noncorporate stockholders at a 20%, 25%, or 28% rate. Thus, the tax rate differential between capital gain and ordinary income for noncorporate taxpayers may be significant. In addition, the characterization of income as capital or ordinary may affect the deductibility of capital losses. Capital losses not offset by capital gains may be deducted against a noncorporate taxpayer's ordinary income only up to a maximum annual amount of $3,000. Unused capital losses may be carried forward. All net capital gain of a corporate taxpayer is subject to tax at ordinary corporate rates. A corporate taxpayer can deduct capital losses only to the extent of capital gains, with unused losses being carried back three years and forward five years. Taxation of Tax-Exempt Holders of Series B Preferred Stock. Tax-exempt entities, including qualified employee pension and profit sharing trusts and individual retirement accounts ("Exempt Organizations"), generally are exempt from federal income taxation. However, they are subject to taxation on their unrelated business taxable income ("UBTI"). While many investments in real estate generate UBTI, amounts distributed by FelCor to Exempt Organizations generally should not constitute UBTI, provided that the Series B Preferred Stock is not otherwise used in an unrelated trade or business of the Exempt Organization. However, if an Exempt Organization finances its acquisition of Series B Preferred Stock with debt, a portion of its income from FelCor will constitute UBTI pursuant to the "debt-financed property" rules. Furthermore, social clubs, voluntary employee benefits associations, supplemental unemployment benefit trusts, and qualified group legal services plans that are exempt from taxation under paragraphs (7), (9), (17), and (20), respectively, of Code Section 501(c) are subject to different UBTI rules, which generally will require them to characterize dividends from FelCor as UBTI. A pension trust that owns more than 10% (by value) of the outstanding stock of FelCor is required to treat a percentage of the dividends from FelCor as UBTI ("UBTI Percentage") in certain circumstances. The UBTI Percentage is the gross income derived by FelCor from an unrelated trade or business (determined as if FelCor were a pension trust) divided by the gross income of FelCor for the year in which the dividends are paid. The UBTI rule applies only if (i) the UBTI Percentage is at least 5%, (ii) FelCor satisfies the 5/50 Rule by reason of the modification of such rule that allows the beneficiaries of the pension trust to be treated as holding shares of FelCor in proportion to their actuarial interests in the pension trust, and (iii) either (A) one pension trust owns more than 25% of the value of FelCor's stock or (B) a group of pension trusts individually holding more than 10% of the value of FelCor's stock collectively owns more than 50% of the value of FelCor's stock. Accordingly, exempt pension trusts should consult their tax advisors regarding the advisability of acquiring (subject to the restrictions on transfer and ownership of FelCor's stock contained in the Charter) more than 10% (by value) of the outstanding stock of FelCor. Backup Withholding. Under the backup withholding provisions of the Code and applicable Treasury Department regulations thereunder, a holder of Series B Preferred Stock may be subject to backup withholding at the rate of 31% with respect to dividends paid on, or the proceeds of a sale or redemption of, such stock unless (i) such holder is a corporation or comes within certain other exempt categories and when S-27 28 required demonstrates this fact, or (ii) provides a taxpayer identification number, certifies as to no loss of exemption from backup withholding, and otherwise complies with the applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a holder will be allowed as a credit against the holder's federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the Service. Recently promulgated Treasury Regulations, effective for distributions made after December 31, 1999, modify the backup withholding rules with respect to non-U.S. stockholders. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock should consult their own tax advisors regarding the qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining any applicable exemption.

Smith Barney Inc............................................ --------- Total............................................. 5,000,000 =========
The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the several Underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the Depositary Shares offered hereby are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to certain other conditions. The Underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all Depositary Shares offered hereby if any such Depositary Shares are taken. The Representatives have advised FelCor that the Underwriters propose initially to offer the Depositary Shares to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement and to certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of $ per share. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a discount not in excess of $ per share on sales to certain other dealers. After the initial offering of the Depositary Shares, the public offering price and other selling terms may be changed, from time to time, by the Representatives. FelCor has agreed to indemnify the several Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof. FelCor has agreed that for a period of 30 days from the date hereof, FelCor will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, directly or indirectly, sell, offer to sell, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of any Depositary Shares or any other preferred stock ranking on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock and the related Depositary Shares. S-28 29 Application will be made to list the Depositary Shares on the NYSE. Trading of the Depositary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange is expected to commence within the 30-day period after the initial delivery of the Depositary Shares. The Representatives have advised FelCor that they intend to make a market in the Depositary Shares prior to the commencement of trading on the NYSE. The Representatives will have no obligation to make a market in the Depositary Shares, however, and may cease market making activities, if commenced, at any time. In order to facilitate the offering of the Depositary Shares, the Underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Depositary Shares. Specifically, the Underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position in the Depositary Shares for their own account. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of the Depositary Shares, the Underwriters may bid for, and purchase, the Depositary Shares in the open market. Finally, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the Depositary Shares in the Offering, if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed Depositary Shares in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the Depositary Shares above independent market levels. The Underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time. In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a syndicate short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than it might otherwise be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it discourages resales of the security by purchasers in the Offering. Neither FelCor nor any of the Underwriters makes any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Depositary Shares. In addition, neither FelCor nor any of the Underwriters makes any representation that the Underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice. The Representatives from time to time provide investment banking and financial advisory services to Felcor and the Operating Partnership. Certain of the Representatives have also acted as representatives of various underwriters in connection with offerings of FelCor's equity securities and the Operating Partnership's debt securities. LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for FelCor by Jenkens & Gilchrist, a Professional Corporation, Dallas, Texas. In addition, the description of federal income tax consequences contained in the sections of the Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement entitled "Federal Income Tax Considerations" is based on the opinion of Hunton & Williams, Richmond, Virginia. The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for the Underwriters by King & Spalding, Atlanta, Georgia.

S-30 31 PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION FELCOR SUITE HOTELS, INC. INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS BACKGROUND FelCor is a self-administered real estate investment trust formed to own hotel properties. At December 31, 1997, FelCor owned interests in 73 hotels with an aggregate of 17,933 suites/rooms through its 92.7% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The following table sets forth information regarding the acquisitions of the FelCor Hotels:
HOTELS NUMBER OF ACQUIRED SUITES/ ROOMS -------- ------------- 1994.................................. 7 1,730 1995.................................. 13 2,649 1996.................................. 23 5,769 1997.................................. 30 7,608 Suites constructed since acquisition......................... 177 -- ------ 73 17,933 == ======
FelCor owns 100% equity interests in 55 of the FelCor Hotels (13,430 suites/rooms), a 90% or greater interest in partnerships owning four of the FelCor Hotels (1,041 suites/rooms), and 50% interests in separate unconsolidated entities that own 14 of the FelCor Hotels (3,462 suites/rooms). At December 31, 1997, 52 of the FelCor Hotels were operated as Embassy Suites hotels, 13 as Doubletree Guest Suites Hotels, five as Sheraton hotels, two as Sheraton Suites hotels, and one as a Hilton Suites hotel. The FelCor Hotels are located in 27 states, with 31 hotels in California, Florida and Texas. FelCor leases all of the FelCor Hotels to DJONT or a consolidated subsidiary thereof under the Percentage Leases. DJONT is a Delaware limited liability company, of which all the voting interests (constituting a 50% equity interest) are beneficially owned by Hervey A. Feldman and Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr., who are directors and officers of FelCor, and the non-voting interests (constituting the remaining 50% equity interest) are owned by RGC Leasing, Inc., a Nevada corporation owned by the children of Charles N. Mathewson, a major investor in and a director of FelCor. DJONT has entered into management agreements pursuant to which, at December 31, 1997, 63 of the FelCor Hotels were managed by subsidiaries of Promus, seven were managed by subsidiaries of Sheraton, and three were managed by two independent management companies. 1998 ACQUISITIONS Since January 1, 1998, FelCor has completed the acquisitions of three hotels and announced the pending acquisition of eight hotels. On February 17, 1998, FelCor acquired a 194-suite Doubletree Guest Suites Hotel in Columbus, Ohio for total consideration of approximately $19.1 million (approximately $14.1 million in cash and approximately 134,000 Units valued at $37.06 each). On March 23, 1998, FelCor completed the acquisition of a 90% interest in a 154-room Radisson Hotel in Wilmington, Delaware (to be converted to a Doubletree Hotel) for approximately $14.0 million in cash. On April 14, 1998, FelCor completed the acquisition of a 90% interest in a 248 room Doubletree Hotel located in Denver, Colorado for approximately $24.3 million in cash. On April 20, 1998, FelCor announced the pending acquisition of eight hotels with an aggregate of 1,898 suites for a total purchase price of $245 million in cash. Five of the eight hotels are currently operated under the Embassy Suites brand and three are operated under the Doubletree Guest Suites brand. It is anticipated that one of the Doubletree Guest Suites will be converted to an Embassy Suites hotel and the other two will be converted to Sheraton Suites hotels. The acquisition is expected to close at the end of April 1998. F-1 32 1997 AND ANTICIPATED 1998 FINANCING TRANSACTIONS During 1997, FelCor completed two secondary equity offerings of 3.0 million common shares at $35.50 per share on February 3, 1997 and of 11.2 million common shares at $36.625 per share on June 30, 1997. Proceeds from these offerings amounted to approximately $489 million, net of offering costs, and were used to fund acquisitions, reduce amounts outstanding under FelCor's unsecured revolving Line of Credit, and repurchase 1.2 million FelCor common shares from Promus at $36.625 per share less the related offering costs. On October 1, 1997, FelCor completed a private placement of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of its long term senior unsecured notes. The notes were issued in two maturities, consisting of $175 million of 7 3/8% senior notes due 2004 priced at 99.489% to yield 7.47% and $125 million of 7 5/8% senior notes due 2007 priced at 99.209% to yield 7.74%. The proceeds from the notes were used to fund acquisitions and reduce amounts outstanding under the Line of Credit. On March 21, 1998, FelCor completed an exchange offering for the notes, issuing new notes which were identical in amount and terms except that the new notes were registered under the Securities Act. In order to fund the 1998 Acquisitions previously discussed, FelCor currently intends to issue the Series B Preferred Stock offered hereby at an assumed dividend rate of 8 7/8%. See "Use of Proceeds." THE BRISTOL MERGER On March 24, 1998, FelCor and Bristol announced a proposed merger whereby FelCor will acquire all the real estate assets and related liabilities of Bristol existing at the merger date. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, each of Bristol's outstanding common shares and equivalents will be exchanged for 0.685 newly issued FelCor Common Shares and Bristol will merge with and into FelCor, with FelCor being the surviving corporation. Prior to the Merger, Bristol will spin-off, as a taxable dividend, all of its non-real estate holdings into BHR. In connection with the Merger, all of Bristol's hotels will be leased to BHR under Percentage Leases. F-2 33 The Bristol Hotels, upon completion of Bristol's Redevelopment and Rebranding Program, will include three upscale all-suite hotels, 24 upscale full-service hotels, 60 full-service hotels and 22 limited-service hotels. The Bristol Hotels will be operated under the following franchise affiliations:
