PART I
This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include the ability of the Company to implement its acquisition strategy and operating strategy; the Companys ability to manage planned growth; changes in economic cycles and competition within the extended-stay hotel industry. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this Annual Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Companys qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Readers should carefully review the Companys financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Apple Hospitality Five, Inc. (the Company), a Virginia corporation, was formed on September 20, 2002, with the first investor closing on January 3, 2003. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The REIT Modernization Act, effective January 1, 2001, permits real estate investment trusts (REIT) to establish taxable businesses to conduct certain previously disallowed business activities. The Company has formed wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries and has leased all of its hotels to those subsidiaries (collectively, the Lessee).
The hotels are operated and managed by Marriott International Inc. or its affiliates, Hilton Hotels Corporation Inc. or its affiliates or Western International Inc. or its affiliates.
Website Access
The Company does not have an Internet website. The Company will make available free of charge upon request paper copies of its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on From 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
Growth Strategies
The Companys primary objective is to enhance shareholder value by increasing funds from operations and cash available for distributions. The Company focuses on maximizing the internal growth of its portfolio by purchasing properties that have strong cash flow growth potential.
The Company seeks to increase operating cash flow and enhance its value through internal growth and acquisitions. The Companys internal growth strategy is to utilize its asset management expertise to improve the quality of its hotels by acquiring new hotels in underdeveloped markets and working with third party managers or franchisors that have strong brand recognition and customer satisfaction.
The Company believes that its planned acquisitions and market penetration will continue to increase revenue per available room (REVPAR) growth at its hotels, thereby increasing lease revenue. The Company is committed to reserve a percentage of gross revenue per month for certain capital expenditures
3
for periodic replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment. The Company has approximately $3.1 held in escrow for future furniture, fixture and equipment purchases as of December 31, 2003.
The Company has entered into contracts for the purchase of seven hotels that will be completed over the next twelve to fifteen months. These purchases will complete the initial ramp-up of the Companys portfolio of hotels; however, the Company continuously monitors its portfolio and will, where appropriate, selectively acquire or dispose of properties based on specific market conditions.
The Company believes that acquisition opportunities in upscale extended-stay hotel markets will continue.
Financing
The Company purchased substantially all of its properties in 2003 in debt free acquisitions. The only encumbered property was purchased as part of the Western International acquisition in October 2003. The Company assumed an existing loan in connection with the purchase of the operating hotel in Harlingen, Texas. The Company does not intend to utilize a significant amount of debt to finance acquisitions. Although there can be no assurance that debt will not be utilized, it is anticipated cash from operations will meet the Companys cash requirements. The Companys bylaws require board approval or review of any debt financing obtained by the Company.
Competition
The Company believes that the hotel industry is highly competitive. Each of the Companys hotels is located in a developed area that includes other hotels and competes for guests primarily with similar hotels in the immediate vicinity and secondarily with hotels in the same geographic market. An increase in the number of competitive hotels in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on the occupancy, average daily rate (ADR) and revenue per available room of the Companys hotels in that area. The Company believes that brand recognition, location, price and quality (of both the hotel and the services provided) are the principal competitive factors affecting the Companys hotels.
Hotel Operating Performance
The Company owns nine Residence Inn® by Marriott® hotels, five Courtyard® by Marriott® hotels, one Marriott Suites® hotel, one Springhill Suites® by Marriott® hotel, four Homewood Suites by Hilton® hotels, and two Hilton Garden Inn® hotels. The hotels are located in various states and, in aggregate, consist of 2,919 suites. Suite revenues for these hotels totaled $31.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, and the hotels achieved average occupancy of 73%, ADR of $91 and REVPAR of $66. The Companys daily hotel operations are managed under various management agreements with third parties including Marriott, Hilton or Western International.
Property Taxes and Insurance
The Company maintains real estate tax escrows, funded from gross revenues of the hotels, which are used to pay the costs of real estate and personal property taxes for certain properties. Property insurance is also funded from gross revenues. Taxes, insurance and other expenses incurred by the Company totaled $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Maintenance
The hotels have an ongoing need for renovation and refurbishment. Under various hotel management agreements, the Company has agreed to fund expenditures for periodic repairs, replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment for the hotels in an amount equal to a certain percentage of gross revenues. In addition, other capital improvement projects are directly funded by the Company.
4
Employees
During 2003, all employees involved in the day-to-day operation of the Companys hotels were employed by management companies engaged pursuant to the hotel management agreements. The Company has no employees and utilizes, through an advisory agreement for corporate and strategic support, personnel from a related party, Apple Hospitality Five Advisors, Inc. who in turn subcontracts with Apple Hospitality Two, Inc.
Environmental Matters
In connection with each of the Companys hotel acquisitions, the Company obtains a Phase I Environmental Report and additional environmental reports and surveys as are necessitated by the preliminary report. Based on the reports, the Company is not aware of any environmental situations requiring remediation at the Companys properties, which have not been or are not currently being remediated as necessary. No material remediation costs have or are expected to occur.

PART II
Item 5. Market For Registrants Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
On-Going Best-Efforts Offering
The Company is currently conducting an on-going best-efforts offering. The Company registered its Units (each unit consists of one common share and one Series A preferred share) on Registration Statement Form S-11 (File No. 333-100044) filed December 3, 2002. The Company began its best-efforts offering (the Offering) of Units, on the same day the Registration Statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The managing underwriter is David Lerner Associates, Inc. All of the Units are being sold for the Companys account. There are 36,299,595 Units outstanding under this offering as of December 31, 2003 representing net proceeds of $355,989,000. The Series A preferred shares have no voting rights, no distribution rights, and no conversion rights. In addition, the Series A preferred shares are not separately tradable from the common shares to which they relate. The only right associated with each Series A preferred share is a priority distribution upon the sale of the Companys assets. The priority distribution will be equal to $11.00 per Series A preferred share, and no more, before any distribution will be made to the holders of any other shares. Upon that distribution, the Series A preferred shares will have no other distribution rights.
Distributions of $15.6 million were paid to shareholders during 2003. Distributions were declared at a rate of $0.88 per share for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan and Incentive Plan
The Companys board of directors has adopted and the Companys shareholders have approved a Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan and an Incentive Plan. The options issued under each plan convert to Units. Each Unit is equal to one common share and one Series A preferred share of the Company.
Distribution Policy
To maintain its REIT status the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary income. Also, all distributions are at the discretion of the Companys board of directors. Since inception of the Company, it has paid a monthly dividend of $.073 per share. Although the Company intends to maintain a consistent dividend there can be no assurances that ordinary income will be sufficient to maintain a consistent dividend.
Common Shares
There is currently no established public market in which the Companys common shares are traded. On December 31, 2003, there were approximately 12,399 beneficial shareholders of the Companys common shares. No distributions were made to the shareholders during 2002. In 2003, the Company paid monthly dividends of $0.073 per share. The timing and amounts of distributions to shareholders are within the discretion of the Companys Board of Directors. Future distributions will depend on the Companys results of operations, cash flow from operations, economic conditions and other factors, such as working capital, cash requirements to fund investing and financing activities, capital expenditure requirements, including improvements to and expansions of properties and the acquisition of additional properties, as well as the distribution requirements under federal income tax provisions for qualification as a REIT.
Series A Preferred Shares
The Series A preferred shares have no voting rights and no conversion rights. In addition, the Series A preferred shares are not separately tradable from the common shares to which they relate. The Series A preferred shares do not have any distribution rights except a priority distribution upon the sale of the Companys assets. The priority distribution (Priority Distribution) will be equal to $11.00 per Series A preferred share, and will be paid before any distribution will be made to the holders of any other shares. Upon the Priority Distribution the Series A preferred shares will have no other distribution rights.
9
Series B Convertible Preferred Shares
The Company currently has 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding all owned by Glade M. Knight, the Companys Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. There are no dividends payable on the Series B convertible preferred shares. Holders of more than two-thirds of the Series B convertible preferred shares must approve any proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation that would adversely affect the Series B convertible preferred shares. Upon liquidation, each holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is entitled to a priority liquidation payment. However the priority liquidation payment of the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is junior to the holders of the Series A preferred shares distribution rights. The holder of a Series B convertible preferred share is entitled to a liquidation payment of $11 per number of common shares into which each Series B convertible preferred share would convert. In the event that the liquidation of the Companys assets results in proceeds that exceed the distribution rights of the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, the remaining proceeds will be distributed between the common shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, on an as converted basis. The Series B convertible preferred shares are convertible into Units upon and for 180 days following the occurrence of either of the following events: (1) substantially all of the Companys assets, stock or business is transferred as a going concern, whether through exchange, merger, consolidation, lease, share exchange or otherwise, other than a sale of assets in liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Companys business; or (2) the Companys common shares are listed on any securities exchange or quotation system or in any established market.
Preferred Shares
The Companys articles of incorporation authorize issuance of up to 15 million additional preferred shares. No preferred shares other than the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares (discussed above) have been issued. The Company believes that the authorization to issue additional preferred shares benefits the Company and its shareholders by permitting flexibility in financing additional growth, giving the Company additional financing options in corporate planning and in responding to developments in business, including financing of additional acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. Having authorized preferred shares available for issuance in the future gives the Company the ability to respond to future developments and allows preferred shares to be issued without the expense and delay of a special shareholders meeting. At present, the Company has no specific financing or acquisition plans involving the issuance of additional preferred shares and the Company does not propose to fix the characteristics of any series of preferred shares in anticipation of issuing preferred shares other than the Series A preferred shares and Series B convertible preferred shares discussed above. The Company cannot now predict whether or to what extent, if any, additional preferred shares will be used or if so used what the characteristics of a particular series may be. The voting rights and rights to distributions of the holders of common shares will be subject to the prior rights of the holders of any subsequently-issued preferred shares. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or regulation, the preferred shares would be issuable without further authorization by holders of the common shares and on such terms and for such consideration as may be determined by the board of directors. The preferred shares could be issued in one or more series having varying voting rights, redemption and conversion features, distribution (including liquidating distribution) rights and preferences, and other rights, including rights of approval of specified transactions. A series of preferred shares could be given rights that are superior to rights of holders of common shares and a series having preferential distribution rights could limit common share distributions and reduce the amount holders of common shares would otherwise receive on dissolution.

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include the ability of the Company to implement its acquisition strategy and operating strategy; the Companys ability to manage planned growth; changes in economic cycles and competition within the extended-stay hotel industry. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this Annual Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Companys qualification as a real estate investment trust involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Readers should carefully review the Companys financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the risk factors described in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Overview
The Company was formed and initially capitalized on September 20, 2002, with its first investor closing on January 3, 2003. The Company owns 22 hotels within different markets in the United States. The Company intends to be treated as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) for federal income tax purposes. The Companys first hotel was acquired in January 2003 with twenty-one additional hotels acquired throughout the year. Accordingly, the results of operations do not include a full year of operations for all hotels. The performance of the Companys hotels can be influenced by many factors, including local hotel competition, local and national economic conditions and the performance of the individual managers assigned to our hotels. In evaluating financial condition and operating performance, the most important matters on which the Company focuses are revenue measurements, such as average occupancy, average daily rate and revenue per available room, and expenses, such as hotel operating expenses, general and administrative and other expenses described below. During 2003, the performance of the Companys hotels met the Companys expectations. The Company will substantially complete its hotel acquisitions in 2004 and work to maximize cash from operations and in turn to maximize shareholder distributions.
Hotels Owned
During the period from September 20, 2002 to December 31, 2002, the Company owned no properties, had no revenue and was engaged in initial capital-raising activities. During this period, the Company incurred miscellaneous start-up costs and interest expense under its unsecured line of credit. The Company commenced operations in January 2003 upon the purchase of its first hotel property. As of December 31, 2003, the Company owned a total of 22 hotel properties, with a total of 2,919 suites and/or rooms.

The purchase price for all of the hotels was funded by the Companys ongoing best efforts offering of Units. The Company leased all of its hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (collectively, the lessee) under master hotel lease agreements. The Company also used the proceeds of its ongoing offering to pay 2% of the gross purchase price for these hotels, which equals $6,328,000, as a commission to Apple Suites Realty Group, Inc. (ASRG), an entity wholly-owned by the Companys Chairman, Glade M. Knight.
No goodwill or intangible assets were recorded in connection with any of the acquisitions.
Management Agreements
The Companys Marriott brand hotels are subject to management agreements under which Marriott or its affiliates (the Manager) manages the hotels and provides the Company access to Marriotts intellectual property and proprietary sales and reservation system, generally for an initial term of 15 to 20 years with renewal terms at the option of the Manager of up to an additional 50 years. The agreements generally provide for payment of base management fees, which are calculated annually and are a percentage of sales, incentive management fees over a priority return (as defined in the management agreements), system fees, marketing fees and chain services. Additionally, these agreements have termination provisions for the Company if certain operating results are not achieved.
Western International manages three of the Companys Residence Inn hotels and two of the Companys Courtyard by Marriott hotels. These hotels are given access to Marriotts intellectual property and proprietary sales and reservation system under franchise agreements with Marriott. Western International manages day-to-day operations of these hotels and charges management fees for this function, which are calculated as a percentage of revenue. Each hotel is also subject to incentive management fees, if certain levels of operating profit are reached. There were no incentive management fees incurred or paid during 2003 for these hotels. The management agreements are for a term of five years and include a provision for early termination if certain results and conditions are not met.
Promus manages day-to-day operations of the Companys Homewood Suites and Hilton Garden Inn hotels. Promus charges fees for this function, which are calculated as a percentage of revenue. Incentive management fees are calculated, for certain properties, on the basis of operating profit of the hotels. No incentive management fees were earned in 2003. Promus also charges a fee, calculated as a percentage of suite revenue, for franchise licenses to operate as a Homewood Suites by Hilton or a Hilton Garden Inn and to participate in its reservation system.
Total expenses for 2003 paid for management fees, system fees, marketing fees, chain services and franchise fees were $1.7 million. There were no expenses in 2002. These expenses are included in the hotel operating expenses mentioned below.
Results of Operations
Since operations commenced on January 3, 2003, with the Companys first acquisition, a comparison to prior year results is not possible or meaningful. In general, the performance of the Companys hotels have met expectations for the short period held. Hotel performance is impacted by many factors including local hotel competition and local and national economic conditions in the United States. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Companys operating performance will continue to meet expectations.
15
Revenues
The Companys principal source of revenue is hotel suites revenue and related other revenue. Hotel operations are for the 22 hotels acquired through December 31, 2003 for their respective periods owned. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company had suite and room revenue and other revenue of $31,203,907 and $1,925,957, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the hotels achieved average occupancy of 73%, average daily rate or ADR of $91 and revenue per available room or RevPAR of $66. ADR is calculated as room revenue divided by the number of rooms sold, and RevPAR is calculated as occupancy multiplied by ADR.
For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company had interest income of $516,711. Interest income represents earnings on excess cash invested in short term money market instruments, pending investment in hotel properties.
Expenses
Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2003 represented the expenses related to the 22 hotels purchased in 2003 and their respective periods owned.
For the year ended December 31, 2003, hotel operating expenses of the hotels totaled $17,977,038 or 57.6% of suite revenue of the 22 hotels for their respective periods owned. This percentage is expected to decrease as the current year includes start up costs for several hotels and a ramp up of revenue for newly opened properties.
General and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $896,833 or 3% of suite revenue of the 22 hotels for their respective periods owned. The Company anticipates this percentage to decrease as the Companys asset base grows. The principal components of general and administrative expense are advisory fees, legal, accounting and reporting expense.
Taxes, insurance, and other expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $2,070,063 or 7% of suite revenue of the 22 hotels for their respective periods owned.
Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $4,000,760. Depreciation expense represents expense of the Companys 22 hotels and related personal property for their respective periods owned, and depreciation on the Companys airplane (see Note 8 under the notes to the consolidated financial statements).
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $550,318. Interest expense arose from a $50 million dollar bridge loan, which bore interest based on LIBOR or prime rate, utilized to close fourth quarter hotel acquisitions. This bridge loan was repaid in full in December 2003. Interest expense also includes interest on the debt assumed with the Harlingen hotel acquisition in October 2003. The outstanding balance acquired was approximately $4.7 million with an 8.5% annual interest rate.

The Company commenced operations effective January 3, 2003 with the Companys first investor closing.
The cash flow generated from the properties owned and any short term investments is the Companys principal source of liquidity. In addition, the Company may borrow funds, subject to limitations set forth in its by-laws.
The Companys dividend distribution policy is at the discretion of the board of directors and depends on several factors. The distribution rate for the period January 3, 2003 through December 31, 2003 was at an annual rate of $.88 per Unit outstanding (or $.22 per quarter). The Companys distributions included a return of capital based on the Companys earnings and profits. Although the Company anticipates earnings for a full year of operations to allow the Company to continue its current dividend payment policy, there can be no assurance that the Company will continue its current dividend amount or that it will be completely funded from operations.
In general, the Company expects capital resources to be adequate to meet its cash requirements in 2004.
As of December 31, 2003, the Company had cash on hand of $23.8 million. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Companys on-going best-efforts offering to purchase hotel properties.
The Company has on-going capital commitments to fund its capital improvements. The Company is required, under all of the Companys management agreements, to make available, for the repair, replacement, refurbishing of furniture, fixtures, and equipment, an amount of 5% of gross revenues provided that such amount may be used for the Companys capital expenditures with respect to the hotels. The Company expects that this amount will be adequate to fund required repair, replacement, and refurbishments and to maintain the Companys hotels in a competitive condition. As of December 31, 2003, the Company held $3.1 million in reserve.
The Company obtained an unsecured line of credit in a principal amount of up to $300,000 to fund its start-up costs. The lender was Wachovia Bank, N.A. The line of credit bore interest at the banks prime rate. Interest was payable monthly. The Company borrowed a total of $218,143 as of December 31, 2002 against the line of credit. Glade M. Knight, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, guaranteed repayment of the line of credit. Mr. Knight did not receive any consideration in exchange for providing this guarantee. The Company repaid this debt in January 2003 with proceeds from the sale of Units and canceled the line of credit.
The Company anticipates that cash flow will be adequate to cover its operating expenses and to permit the Company to meet its anticipated liquidity requirements, including distribution requirements. Inflation may increase the Companys operating costs.
The Company is raising equity through a best-efforts offering of Units by David Lerner and Associates, Inc. (the Managing Dealer). Each Unit is equal to one common share and one Series A preferred share of the Company. The Company achieved the minimum offering of 4,761,905 Units at a price of $10.50 per Unit as of January 3, 2003. As of December 31, 2003, the Company had sold 36,299,595 Units under this offering with net proceeds totaling $355,989,000. The Company is continuing the offering at $11.00 per Unit in accordance with the prospectus for the Companys offering.
The Company is under contract for seven additional hotels that are currently under development. The estimated purchase price upon completion of the hotels is approximately $155 million. The contracts are subject to due diligence and no assurances can be given that the purchases will be consummated. Six of the properties are anticipated to close during 2004 with the seventh to close in early 2005. It is anticipated substantially all of the purchase price will be paid from cash on hand. The properties are located in Texas, Arizona, Washington and Virginia and will be similar to the properties currently owned by the Company.
17
Subsequent Events
During January and February 2004, the managing underwriter sold a total of 8.0 million Units consisting of one common share and one preferred share, resulting in $79.6 million in proceeds net of selling commissions.
Impact of Inflation
Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. Competitive pressures may, however, limit the operators ability to raise room rates. Currently the Company is not experiencing any material impact from inflation.
Seasonality
The hotel industry historically has been seasonal in nature. Seasonal variations in occupancy at the Companys hotels may cause quarterly fluctuations in its revenues. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, the Company expects to utilize cash on hand to make distributions.
Critical Accounting Policies
The following contains a discussion of what the Company believes to be critical accounting policies. These items should be read to gain a further understanding of the principles used to prepare the Companys financial statements. These principals include application of judgment; therefore, changes in judgments may have a significant impact on the Companys reported results of operations and financial condition.
Capitalization Policy
The Company considers expenditures to be capital in nature based on the following criteria: 1) For a single asset, the cost must be at least $300, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; 2) For group purchases of 10 or more identical assets, the unit cost for each asset must be at least $50, with the aggregate cost of the group purchase being at least $750, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; 3) For major repairs to buildings, furniture, fixtures and equipment, the repair must be at least $2,000, and the useful life of the asset must be substantially extended.
Impairment Losses Policy
The Company records impairment losses on hotel properties used in operations if indicators of impairment are present, and the sum of the discounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the respective properties are less than the properties carrying amounts. Impairment losses are measured as the difference between the assets fair value less cost to sell, and its carrying value. No impairment losses have been recorded to date.
Investment Policy
The purchase price of real estate properties acquired is allocated to the various components, such as land, buildings and improvements, intangible assets and in-place leases as appropriate, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, commonly referred to as SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. The purchase price is allocated based on the fair value of each component at the time of acquisition. We generally do not acquire real estate assets that have in-place leases as lease terms for hotel properties are very short term in nature. We have not allocated any purchase price to intangible assets such as management contracts and franchise agreements as such contracts are generally at current market rates and any other value attributable to these contracts are not considered material.
Related Party Transactions
The Company has significant transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be arms length, and the results of the Companys operations may be different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties.
18
The Company has contracted with ASRG to provide brokerage services for the acquisition and disposition of the Companys real estate assets. In accordance with the contract, ASRG is paid a fee of 2% of the gross purchase price of any acquisitions or gross sale price of any dispositions of real estate investments, subject to certain conditions. These amounts are capitalized as part of the purchase price of the hotels. Total payments to date to ASRG for services under the terms of this contract were approximately $6.3 million, which have been capitalized as a part of the purchase price of the hotels.
The Company also contracted with Apple Hospitality Five Advisors, Inc. (AFA), which in turn subcontracts with Apple Suites Advisors, Inc. (ASA) a subsidiary of Apple Hospitality Two, to advise and provide day-to-day management services for the Company and due-diligence services on acquisitions. In accordance with the contract, the Company pays AFA a fee equal to .1% to .25% of total equity contributions received by us in addition to certain reimbursable expenses. Total payments to AFA in 2003 were $296,435.
As of December 31, 2002, AFA, ASRG and ASA were 100% owned by Mr. Knight. As of January 31, 2003, the outstanding shares of ASA owned by Mr. Glade M. Knight were purchased by Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. and ASA is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. AFA and ASRG may purchase up to 2.5% of the total number of the Companys Units sold in the Companys best-efforts offering.
The Company issued 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Mr. Knight. The Series B convertible preferred shares were issued in exchange for payment of $0.10 per Series B convertible preferred share, or an aggregate of $24,000. There is no dividend payable on the Series B preferred convertible shares. On liquidation, the holder of the Series B preferred convertible shares will be entitled to a liquidation payment of $11 per share before any distributions of liquidation proceeds to holders of the common shares. However, the priority liquidation payment of the holder of the Series B preferred convertible shares is junior to the holders of the Series A preferred shares distribution rights. In the event that the liquidation of the Companys assets results in proceeds that exceed the distribution rights of the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred share, the remaining proceeds will be distributed between the common shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares on an as converted basis.
Each holder of outstanding Series B preferred convertible shares has the right to convert any of such shares into common shares upon and for 180 days following the occurrence of any of the following conversion events:
(1) substantially all of the Companys assets, stock or business, is transferred as a going concern, whether through exchange, merger, consolidation, lease, share exchange or otherwise, other than a sale of assets in liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Companys business; or
(2) the Companys common shares are listed on any securities exchange or quotation system or in any established market (Conversion Event).
Upon the occurrence of any Conversion Event, each of the Series B preferred convertible shares may be converted into a maximum of 2,907,415 common shares, based upon the gross proceeds raised through the date of conversion in this $500 million offering made by the Companys prospectus. In addition, upon conversion of the Series B convertible preferred shares into common shares, the Series A preferred shares will terminate and the priority distribution in liquidation associated with the Series A preferred shares will disappear. If the Company terminates or fails to renew the Advisory Agreement with AFA, the Series B convertible preferred shares will be entitled to dividend distributions and voting rights on an as converted basis. In this event, the liquidation preference of the Series A preferred shares will continue.
No additional consideration is due upon the conversion of the Series B preferred convertible shares. Upon the probable occurrence of a conversion event, the Company will record expense for the difference between the fair value of its common stock and issue price of the Series B preferred convertible shares.
Compensation expense related to issuance of 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Mr. Knight will be recognized at such time when the number of common shares to be issued for conversion of the Series B shares can be reasonably estimated and the event triggering the conversion of the Series B shares to common shares is probable. The expense will be measured as the difference between the fair value of the common stock for which the Series B shares can be converted and the amounts paid for the Series B shares. A conversion event is not considered probable at December 31, 2003. The beneficial conversion feature at December 31, 2003, assuming a conversion event is probable would be approximately 2.0 million common shares, which based upon the sales price of the Companys shares at $11 per share would result in approximately $22.4 million of compensation expense.

Recent Account Pronouncements
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. (FIN 46) which was revised in December 2003, and is effective immediately for all transactions entered into with variable interest entities after February 2003. The provisions of FIN 46 must be applied to all remaining entities subject to the Interpretation from the beginning of the first quarter of 2004. This statement defines the identification process of variable interest entities and how an entity assesses its interest in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. The Company has formed wholly-owned subsidiaries for financing purposes and such financing is reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Currently, the Company does not anticipate this Statement having a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company has evaluated its hotel purchase contract commitments, discussed above under the provisions of the FIN, and has not consolidated these entities as we have determined we do not have responsibility to absorb the majority of the entities expected losses until such time we purchase these properties.
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 impacts the accounting for minority interests in limited life subsidiaries and requires that those interests be reclassified to liabilities and measured at settlement value. The effective date of FAS 150 has been deferred for an indefinite period. The application of FAS 150 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements as the Company does not currently have any limited life subsidiaries.

The Company does not engage in transactions in derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. As of December 31, 2003, the Companys financial instruments were not exposed to significant market risk due to interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk or equity price risk. The Company will be exposed to changes in short term money market rates as it invests the proceeds from sale of Units pending use in acquisitions. Based on the Companys cash invested at December 31, 2003, or $23.8 million, every 100 basis points change in interest rates will impact the Companys net income by $240,000, all other factors remaining the same. Cash invested pending acquisitions will vary substantially during the coming year based on the amount of proceeds raised and the timing of acquisitions.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1
General Information and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Apple Hospitality Five, Inc. (the Company) is a Virginia corporation, formed on September 20, 2002, with the first investor closing under its ongoing best-efforts offering commencing on January 3, 2003. Therefore, no comparative statement of operations or cash flows for prior periods can be presented. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company along with its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
The Company intends to elect to be treated as a real estate investment trust (REIT) for federal income tax purposes. The REIT Modernization Act, effective January 1, 2001, permits REITs to establish taxable businesses to conduct certain previously disallowed business activities. The Company has formed wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, and has and will continue to lease all of its hotels to those subsidiaries (collectively, the Lessee).
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The fair market value of cash and cash equivalents approximate their carrying value. Cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality institutions and the balances may at times exceed federal depository insurance limits.
Investment in Hotels and Related Depreciation
The hotels are stated at cost, net of depreciation, and include real estate brokerage commissions paid to Apple Suites Realty Group, Inc. (ASRG) (a related party owned by Glade M. Knight, Chairman of the Company) and other due-diligence costs reimbursed to Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (also a related party, of which Glade M. Knight serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer). Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred while significant improvements, renovations, and replacements are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 39 years for buildings and major improvements and three to seven years for furniture and equipment.
The Company considers expenditures to be capital in nature based on the following criteria: (1) for a single asset, the cost must be at least $300, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; (2) for group purchases of 10 or more identical assets, the unit cost for each asset must be at least $50, with the aggregate cost of the group purchase being at least $750, including all normal and necessary costs to place the asset in service, and the useful life must be at least one year; (3) for major repairs to buildings, furniture, fixtures and equipment, the repair must be at least $2,000, and the useful life of the asset must be substantially extended.
The Company records impairment losses on hotel properties used in the operations if indicators of impairment are present, and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the respective properties are less than their carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the difference between the assets fair value less cost to sell, and its carrying value. No impairment losses have been recorded to date.
The purchase price of real estate properties acquired is allocated to the various components, such as land, buildings and improvements, intangible assets and in-place leases as appropriate, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, commonly referred to as SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. The purchase price is allocated based on the fair value of each component at the time of acquisition. The Company generally does not acquire real estate assets that have in-place leases as lease terms for hotel properties are very short term in nature. The Company has not allocated any purchase price to intangible assets such as management contracts and franchise agreements as such contracts are generally at current market rates and any other value attributable to these contracts are not considered material.
27
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized as earned, which is generally defined as the date upon which a guest occupies a room or utilizes the hotels services.
Offering Costs
As of December 31, 2003, the Company had incurred $40,924,985 in costs related to its best-efforts offering of Units. Each Unit is equal to one common share, no par value and one Series A preferred share of the Company. The first closing of Units occurred on January 3, 2003 with the sale of 4,761,905 Units at $10.50 per Unit, with proceeds net of commissions totaling $44,999,999. As of December 31, 2003, the Company had closed on additional sales of 31,537,690 Units at $11.00 per Unit, with proceeds net of commissions totaling $312,221,004.
Comprehensive Income
The Company recorded no comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2003 or the period from inception to December 31, 2002.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated after giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding for the year. There were no dilutive shares outstanding at December 31, 2003 or 2002. Series B preferred convertible shares are not included in earnings per common share calculations until such time it becomes probable that such shares can be converted to common shares (see Note 4).
Federal Income Taxes
The Company is operated as, and will annually elect to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856 to 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. Earnings and profits, which will determine the taxability of distributions to shareholders, will differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes primarily due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation. The characterization of 2003 distributions of $0.88 per share for tax purposes was 52% ordinary income and 48% return of capital (unaudited).
The Lessee, as a taxable REIT subsidiary of the Company, is subject to federal and state income taxes. The taxable REIT subsidiary incurred a loss for the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, and therefore did not have any tax expense. No operating loss benefit has been recorded in the consolidated balance sheet since realization is uncertain. Total net operating loss carry forward for federal income tax purposes was approximately $50,000.
Sales and Marketing Costs
Sales and marketing costs are expensed when incurred. These costs represent the expense for franchise advertising and reservation systems under the terms of the hotel management agreements and general and administrative expenses that are directly attributable to advertising and promotion.
Stock Incentive Plans
The Company elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. As discussed in Note 5, the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS 123) requires use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price
28
of the Companys stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant and other criteria are met, no compensation expense is recognized.
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS 123, under the fair value method described in that statement. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used: risk-free interest rates of 4.06%; expected volatility of approximately 0.244, expected dividend yields of 8% and expected life of approximately 10 years. The fair value of options granted was $0.43.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Summary of Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement for Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangibles, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The Company adopted these new accounting standards beginning the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Correction (SFAS No. 145). Statement 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt (SFAS No. 4), required that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt that were included in the determination of net income be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. This statement requires that a liability for the fair value of a guarantee be recognized at the time the obligation is undertaken. The statement also requires that the liability be measured over the term of the related guarantee. This statement is effective for all guarantees entered into subsequent to December 31, 2002. For all guarantees entered into prior to December 31, 2002, there is to be no change in accounting; however, disclosure of managements estimate of its future obligation under the guarantee is to be made. The company currently does not have any guarantee obligations to which Interpretation 45 applies.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. (FIN 46) which was revised in December 2003, and is effective immediately for all transactions entered into with variable interest entities after February 2003. The provisions of FIN 46 must be applied to all remaining entities subject to the Interpretation from the beginning of the first quarter of 2004. This statement defines the identification process of variable interest entities and how an entity assesses its interest in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity. The Company has formed wholly-owned subsidiaries for financing purposes and such financing is reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Currently, the Company does not anticipate this Statement having a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company has evaluated its hotel purchase contract commitments, discussed below under the provisions of the FIN, and has not consolidated these entities as the Company has determined that it does not have responsibility to absorb the majority of the entities expected losses until such time as it purchases these properties.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 impacts the accounting for minority
29
interests in limited life subsidiaries and requires that those interests be reclassified to liabilities and measured at settlement value. The effective date of SFAS 150 has been deferred for an indefinite period. The application of SFAS No. 150 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements as the Company does not currently have any limited life subsidiaries.
Note 2

The purchase price for all of the hotels was funded by the Companys ongoing best efforts offering of Units. The Company leased all of its hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries under master hotel lease agreements. The Company also used the proceeds of its ongoing offering to pay 2% of the gross purchase price for these hotels, which equals $6,328,000, as a commission to ASRG, Inc.
No goodwill or intangible assets were recorded in connection with any of the acquisitions.
Note 3
Notes Payable and Credit Agreements
On November 21, 2002, the Company obtained an unsecured credit line in a principal amount up to $300,000 to fund start-up costs. The lender was Wachovia Bank, N.A. The line of credit bore interest at the banks prime rate and interest was payable monthly. The Company borrowed a total of $218,143 as of December 31, 2002, and Glade M. Knight, the Companys president and Chairman of the Board of Directors, guaranteed repayment of the line of credit. Mr. Knight did not receive any consideration in exchange for providing this guarantee. The Company repaid this debt in January 2003 with proceeds from the sale of Units and extinguished the line of credit.
In conjunction with the acquisition of the eight operating hotels in October 2003, the Company assumed debt with the Harlingen hotel in the approximate amount of $4,850,000 which is secured by a first mortgage on the hotel. The loan matures on June 1, 2011. As of December 31, 2003, the outstanding principal balance for this loan was $4,705,278. The annual interest rate is 8.5% and payments of principal and interest are due in monthly installments. The amount due each month is $39,053.52. The loan is amortized for a period of twenty-five years and a balloon payment in the amount of $4,063,597 is due on June 1, 2011. At the request of the lender, the Company formed new subsidiaries to serve as the owner and lessee for this hotel, and caused these subsidiaries to be special purpose entities. To qualify as special purpose entities, these subsidiaries have organizational documents that impose certain requirements on them while the loan is outstanding. In particular, these subsidiaries must maintain separate legal identities and must limit their activities to dealing with the hotel that secures the loan.
31
Additionally, in conjunction with the acquisition of the eight operating hotels in October 2003, the Company utilized short-term unsecured financing from a commercial bank in the amount of $50 million to fund a portion of the aggregate gross purchase price for the operating hotels. This financing was evidenced by our promissory note and was governed by a loan agreement. Two of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, AHF Nevada, Inc. and AHF Texas Limited Partnership (which collectively own six of the operating hotels), guaranteed the repayment of this loan. The applicable interest rate was equal to LIBOR (the London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 2.5%. Payments of interest only were due monthly. The note was repaid in full, including interest, as of December 31, 2003.
The aggregate amounts of principal payable under the Companys promissory note, for the five years subsequent to December 31, 2003 are as follows:
Total | |||
2004 |
$ | 64,124 | |

The Company entered into a standby letter of credit on November 13, 2003 in the amount of $8.4 million. The letter of credit is security for land the Company has committed to purchase. The letter of credit expires with the purchase, by the Company, of the property or on March 31, 2006, whichever occurs first, and can only be drawn on upon a default under the purchase agreement by the Company.

Shareholders Equity
The Company is currently conducting an on-going best efforts offering. The Company registered its Units (each Unit consists of one common share and one Series A preferred share) on Registration Statement Form S-11 (File No. 333-100044) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 3, 2002. The Company began its best-efforts offering of its Units, no par value, the same day the Registration Statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The managing underwriter is David Lerner Associates, Inc. The Offering is continuing as of the date of these financial statements. All of the Units are being sold for the Companys account.
The Series A preferred shares have no voting rights and no conversion rights. In addition, the Series A preferred shares are not separately tradable from the common shares to which they relate. The Series A preferred shares have no distribution rights except a priority distribution upon the sale of the Companys assets. The priority distribution will be equal to $11.00 per Series A preferred share, and no more, before any distribution will be made to the holders of any other shares. Upon that distribution, the Series A preferred shares will have no other distribution rights.
The Company currently has 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding. There are no dividends payable on the Series B convertible preferred shares. Holders of more than two-thirds of the Series B convertible preferred shares must approve any proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation that would adversely affect the Series B convertible preferred shares. Upon liquidation of the Company, the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is entitled to a priority liquidation payment. However, the priority liquidation payment of the holder of the Series B convertible preferred shares is junior to the holders of the Series A preferred shares distribution rights. The holder of a Series B convertible preferred share is entitled to a liquidation payment of $11 per number of common shares into which each Series B convertible preferred share would convert. In the event that the liquidation of the
32
Companys assets results in proceeds that exceed the distribution rights of the Series A preferred shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, the remaining proceeds will be distributed between the common shares and the Series B convertible preferred shares, on an as converted basis. The Series B convertible preferred shares are convertible into Units upon and for 180 days following the occurrence of either of the following events: (1) substantially all of the Companys assets, stock or business is transferred as a going concern, whether through exchange, merger, consolidation, lease, share exchange or otherwise, other than a sale of assets in liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Companys business; or (2) the Companys common shares are listed on any securities exchange or quotation system or in any established market.
Upon the occurrence of either triggering event and for purposes of determining the liquidation payment due to each holder of a Series B convertible preferred share, each Series B convertible preferred share is convertible into a number of Units based upon the gross proceeds raised through the date of the conversion in the current $500 million public offering of the Companys Units made by the Companys prospectus and according to the following formula:
Gross Proceeds Raised from Sales of Units Through Date of Conversion |
Number of Common Shares Through Conversion of One Series B Convertible Preferred Share | |
$350 million |
8.49719 | |
$400 million |
9.70287 | |
$450 million |
10.90855 | |
$500 million |
12.11423 |
No additional consideration is due upon the conversion of the Series B convertible preferred shares.
Compensation expense related to issuance of 240,000 Series B convertible preferred shares to Mr. Knight will be recognized at such time when the number of common shares to be issued for conversion of the Series B shares can be reasonably estimated and the event triggering the conversion of the Series B shares to common shares is probable. The expense will be measured as the difference between the fair value of the common stock for which the Series B shares can be converted and the amounts paid for the Series B shares. A conversion event is not considered probable at December 31, 2003. The beneficial conversion feature at December 31, 2003, assuming a conversion event is probable would be approximately 2.0 million common shares, which based upon the sales price of the Companys shares at $11 per share would result in approximately $22.4 million of compensation expense.

Stock Incentive Plans
On January 2, 2003, the Board of Directors approved a Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan (the Directors Plan) whereby directors, who are not employees of the Company or affiliates, automatically receive options to purchase stock for five years from the adoption of the plan. Under the Directors Plan, the number of Units authorized for issuance is equal to 22,000 plus .08% of the number of Units sold in excess of 5,000,000 Units. This plan currently relates to the initial public offering of 45,670,995 Units; therefore, the maximum number of Units authorized under the Directors Plan is currently 47,040. The options expire 10 years from the date of grant. As of December 31, 2003, 39,545 Units have been reserved for issuance.
On January 2, 2003, the Board of Directors approved an Incentive Stock Option Plan (the Incentive Plan) whereby incentive awards may be granted to certain employees of the Company or affiliates. Under the Incentive Plan, the number of Units authorized for issuance is equal to 35,000 plus 5% of the number of Units sold in the initial offering in excess of 5,000,000. This plan also currently relates to the initial public offering of 45,670,995 Units; therefore, the maximum number of Units that can be issued under the Incentive Plan is currently 1,599,980. As of December 31, 2003, 1,131,537 Units have been reserved for issuance.
Both plans generally provide, among other things, that options be granted at exercise prices not lower than the market value of the Units on the date of grant. Under the Incentive Plan, at the earliest, options become
33
exercisable at the date of grant. The optionee has up to 10 years from the date on which the options first become exercisable to exercise the options. In the first quarter of 2003, the Company granted 22,000 options to purchase shares under the Directors Plan and granted no options under the Incentive Plan, and in the second quarter of 2003, the Company granted 12,240 options to purchase shares under the Directors Plan and granted no options under the Incentive Plan. No options were granted under the Directors Plan or Incentive Plan during the third or fourth quarter of 2003. Activity in the Companys share option plan during 2003 is summarized in the following table:

The following information about stock-based compensation costs reconciles the difference of accounting for stock-based compensation under the intrinsic value method of APB 25 and related interpretations and the fair value method prescribed under SFAS No. 123.

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by SFAS 123, under the fair value method described in that statement. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used risk-free interest rates of 4.06%; expected volatility of approximately 0.244, expected dividend yields of 10% and expected life of approximately 10 years. Fair value of options granted was $0.43.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.

Management Agreements
The Companys Marriott brand hotels are subject to management agreements under which Marriott or its affiliates (the Manager) manages the hotels and provides access to the Company to Marriotts intellectual property and proprietary sales and reservation system, generally for an initial term of 15 to 20 years with renewal terms at the option of the Manager of up to an additional 50 years. The agreements generally provide for payment of base management fees, which are calculated annually and are a percentage of sales, incentive management fees over a priority return (as defined in the management agreements), system fees, marketing fees and chain services. Additionally, these agreements have termination provisions for the Company if certain operating results are not achieved.
Western International manages three of the Companys Residence Inn hotels and two of the Companys Courtyard by Marriott hotels. These hotels are given access to Marriotts intellectual property and proprietary sales and reservation system under franchise agreements with Marriott. Western International manages day-to-day operations of these hotels and charges management fees for this function, which are calculated as a percent of revenue. Each hotel is also subject to incentive management fees, if certain levels of operating profit are reached. There were no incentive management fees incurred or paid during 2003 for these hotels. The management agreements are for a term of five years and include a provision for early termination if certain results and conditions are not met.
Promus manages day-to-day operations of the Companys Homewood Suites and Hilton Garden Inn hotels. Promus charges fees for this function, which are calculated as a percentage of revenue. Incentive management fees are calculated, for certain properties, on the basis of operating profit of the hotels. No incentive management fees were earned in 2003. Promus also charges a fee, calculated as a percentage of suite revenue, for franchise licenses to operate as a Homewood Suites by Hilton or a Hilton Garden Inn and to participate in its reservation system.
Total expenses for 2003 paid for management fees, system fees, marketing fees, chain services and franchise fees were $1.7 million. There were no expenses in 2002. These expenses are included in franchise and management fees in the consolidated statements of operations.
