Elements of 2025 Long-Term Equity Awards
Performance-Based Equity Awards ("LTIP Units")
LTIP Units may be issued to eligible participants in the 2015 Incentive Award Plan for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Operating Partnership. LTIP Units (other than Class A Units that have not vested), whether vested or not, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as common units in the Operating Partnership (“Common Units”), which equal the per-share dividends on shares of our common stock. Class A Units that have not performance vested generally receive quarterly per-unit distributions equal to ten percent of the distributions made with respect to an equivalent number of Common Units.
Initially, LTIP Units do not have full parity with Common Units with respect to liquidating distributions. If such parity is reached, vested LTIP Units may be converted into an equal number of Common Units at any time, and thereafter enjoy all the rights of Common Units, including redemption rights. Common Units are redeemable for cash based on the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of our common stock, or, at the election of the Company, an equal number of shares of our common stock, each subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, specified extraordinary distributions or similar events.
In order to achieve full parity with Common Units, LTIP Units must be fully vested and the holder’s capital account balance in respect of such LTIP Units must be equal to the per-unit capital account balance with respect to the Common Units owned, directly and indirectly, by the Company.
Class A Units
General: Pursuant to the Class A Unit awards granted in February 2025, each executive is eligible to vest in a number of units ranging from 0% to 100% of the total units granted, based on our TSR during the performance period commencing on January 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2027 (the “Performance Period”), measured on both an absolute basis and relative to the TSRs of a specified peer group of companies during the Performance Period, subject to the executive’s continued service. TSR generally refers to the compounded annual growth rate in the value per share of our common stock during the Performance Period due to the appreciation in the price per share plus dividends declared during the Performance Period, assuming dividends are reinvested in shares of our common stock on the date that they were paid. Class A Units are subject to the applicable terms and conditions of the 2015 Incentive Award Plan, or the Class A Unit award agreement governing such Class A Units, and the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, as amended from time to time (the “Partnership Agreement”).
Performance Vesting: A portion of each award of Class A Units is designated as a number of “base units.” Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Class A base units are designated as“absolute TSR base units” and seventy-five percent (75%) of the Class A base units are designated as “relative TSR base units.” With respect to the absolute TSR base units, in the event that our annualized TSR percentage over the Performance Period (the “Company TSR Percentage”) is achieved at the threshold, target or maximum level as set forth below, the award will become vested with respect to the percentage of absolute TSR base units set forth below. Under the rigorous performance vesting standards currently in place, if the Company does not achieve a significant return over the three-year Performance Period which results in an annualized Company TSR Percentage of at least 6.0%, then zero absolute TSR base units (25% of the total base units) will vest.
| Company TSR Percentage | Absolute TSR Vesting Percentage | |
|---|---|---|
| < 6.0% | 0.00% | |
| Threshold Level | 6.0% | 14.29% |
| Target Level | 9.0% | 42.90% |
| Maximum Level | > 13.0% | 100.00% |
If the Company TSR Percentage falls between the threshold, target or maximum levels, the percentage of absolute TSR base units that vest will be determined using straight-line linear interpolation between such levels.
The relative TSR base units vest based on the Company TSR Percentage as compared to the TSR percentages of the following ten similarly situated lodging REITs, or what we call our “Equity Award Peer Group.” The following lodging REITs are included in our Equity Award Peer Group(1):
| Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc. | Pebblebrook Hotel Trust |
|---|---|
| Chatham Lodging Trust, Inc. | RLJ Lodging Trust |
| DiamondRock Hospitality Company | Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. |
| Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. | Summit Hotel Properties, Inc. |
| Park Hotels & Resorts, Inc. | Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. |
(1)Our Equity Award Peer Group includes additional lodging REITs as compared to the Peer Group used for our analysis of total executive compensation. We include lodging REITs with a wider range of market capitalizations in our Equity Award Peer Group in order to reflect a larger number of companies that investors could consider as alternative investments and that are appropriate benchmarks for our relative industry performance. Additionally, inclusion of a larger number of companies in our Equity Award Peer Group ensures a greater probability of having a sufficient population against which to measure our performance over the length of time over which the performance awards vest (typically a three-year period) in the event companies in our Equity Award Peer Group are merged or acquired.
In the event that the Company TSR Percentage compared to the TSR percentages of the Equity Award Peer Group (the "Equity Award Peer Group Relative Performance") is achieved at the threshold, target or maximum level as set forth below, the award will become vested with respect to the percentage of relative TSR base units set forth below. If the Company does not achieve an Equity Award Peer Group Relative Performance of at least the 25th percentile, then no relative TSR base units will vest.
| Equity AwardPeer Group Relative Performance | Relative TSR Vesting Percentage | |
|---|---|---|
| < 25th Percentile | 0.00% | |
| Threshold Level | 25th Percentile | 14.29% |
| Target Level | 50th Percentile | 42.90% |
| Maximum Level | > 75th Percentile | 100.00% |
If the Equity Award Peer Group Relative Performance falls between the threshold, target or maximum levels, the percentage of relative TSR base units that vest will be determined using straight-line linear interpolation between such levels.
The Class A Units granted in February 2025 reflected the maximum number of units that could vest over the Performance Period. The following table sets forth summaries of the threshold, target and maximum number of absolute TSR base units and relative TSR base units, respectively, that could vest:
| Threshold Base Units | Target Base Units | Maximum Base Units | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Absolute | Relative | Absolute | Relative | Absolute | Relative |
| Class A Units | ||||||
| Marcel Verbaas | 16,010 | 48,031 | 48,064 | 144,193 | 112,038 | 336,114 |
| Barry A.N. Bloom | 7,892 | 23,677 | 23,694 | 71,081 | 55,230 | 165,690 |
| Atish Shah | 6,539 | 19,618 | 19,632 | 58,896 | 45,762 | 137,286 |

| Joseph T. Johnson | 2,593 | 7,780 | 7,785 | 23,355 | 18,147 | 54,441 |
With respect to Class A Units, in addition to the base units, an additional number of Class A Units (the “distribution equivalent units”) are included in each award. A number of distribution equivalent units having a value equal to the dividends that would have been paid during the Performance Period on the shares of our common stock corresponding to the base units that become performance vested (less any actual distributions made with respect to such units) will vest following the completion of the Performance Period up to the maximum number of units that are included in the award. For purposes of calculating the number of distribution equivalent units, the dividend amount will be adjusted (plus or minus) to reflect the gain or loss on such amount had the dividends been reinvested in shares of our common stock on the applicable payment date.
The table below sets forth the total number of Class A Units awarded to each of our named executive officers on February 25, 2025, as well as the number of Class A Units that constitute absolute TSR base units and relative TSR base units.
| Name | Total Class A Units | Absolute TSR Base Units | Relative TSR Base Units |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marcel Verbaas | 515,375 | 112,038 | 336,114 |
| Barry A.N. Bloom | 254,058 | 55,230 | 165,690 |

Time-Based LTIP Units
General: Pursuant to the Time-Based LTIP Unit awards, each executive is eligible to vest in a number of LTIP Units of the Operating Partnership based on the executive’s continued service with the Company. LTIP Units are subject to the applicable terms and conditions of the 2015 Incentive Award Plan, the Time-Based LTIP Unit award agreement governing such LTIP Units, and the Partnership Agreement.
Vesting: Each award of Time-Based LTIP Units granted in February 2025 vests as follows, subject to the executive’s continued service through each applicable vesting date: 33% on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date of the award, 33% on the second anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 34% on the third anniversary of the vesting commencement date.
The table below sets forth the number of Time-Based LTIP Units awarded to each of our named executive officers during 2025:
| Name | Time-Based LTIP Units |
|---|---|
| Marcel Verbaas | 64,022 |
