MHI Hospitality Corporation was formed in August 2004 to own full-service upper up-scale and mid-scale hotels located in primary and secondary markets in the mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States. We are self-advised and own our hotels and conduct our business through MHI Hospitality, L.P., our operating partnership, of which we are the general partner. Our Company owns approximately 63.7% of the partnership units in our operating partnership. Limited partners (including our officers and certain of our directors) own the remaining operating partnership units. We intend to elect to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes.

Our portfolio consists of six full-service upper up-scale and mid-scale hotels under well-known brands as the Hilton and Holiday Inn. On December 21, 2004, we completed our initial public offering, commenced operations and thereafter acquired our initial hotel properties. We also acquired two space leases for the common areas of the Shell Island Resort, a condominium resort property located in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina.

Our initial public offering consisted of the sale of 6,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $10 per share resulting in gross proceeds of $60 million and net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses) of approximately $54.8 million. On January 19, 2005, the Company sold an additional 700,000 shares of common stock at a price of $9.30 per share, net of the underwriting discount, as a result of the exercise of the over-allotment option, resulting in additional net proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. The total net proceeds from the initial public offering and the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option were approximately $61.3 million.

In order for us to qualify as a REIT, we cannot operate our hotels. Therefore, our hotel properties are leased to MHI Hospitality TRS, LLC, our TRS Lessee, which in turn has engaged MHI Hotels Services, an eligible independent management company, to manage our hotels. Our TRS Lessee is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc. (collectively, MHI TRS). MHI TRS is a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes.

Our corporate office is located at 814 Capitol Landing Road, Williamsburg, Virginia 23185. Our telephone number is (757) 229-5648.

The Company acquired its six initial hotel properties upon completion of the IPO for aggregate consideration of approximately $15.0 million in cash, 3,817,036 units of interest in our operating partnership and the assumption of approximately $50.8 million in debt. The six initial hotel properties which comprise our initial portfolio, Hilton Philadelphia Airport, Holiday Inn Brownstone, Holiday Inn Downtown Williamsburg, Hilton Wilmington Riverside, Hilton Savannah DeSoto and Best Western Maryland Inn are located in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina.

The Company also used an additional $3.5 million in cash proceeds to acquire two leasehold interests in Shell Island Resort, a condominium resort property in Wilmington, North Carolina. In order to comply with federal tax regulations attendant to our status as a REIT, the Company is prohibited from directly managing or operating any of its properties, including its leased property. Thus, our operating partnership entered into sublease arrangements to sublease our entire leasehold interests in the property at Shell Island to affiliates of our management company. Our operating partnership receives fixed annual rent and incurs annual lease expenses in connection with the subleases of such property.

We intend to pursue a growth strategy of purchasing, renovating and upbranding underperforming, full-service hotels while seeking to improve the operating results of our initial portfolio.

Our primary objectives are to enhance stockholder value over time by generating attractive risk-adjusted returns on invested capital, consistently paying distributions to our stockholders and achieving long-term appreciation in the value of our lodging investments. We will seek to grow internally by improving the operating results of our initial hotel properties. We will also seek to invest in additional well-located hotel properties that are underperforming in their respective markets and would benefit from renovation, upbranding or a change in management.

We intend to focus our investment activities on the following types of opportunities that involve the acquisition, renovation and upbranding of underperforming or functionally obsolete hotels with the goal of achieving a total investment that is substantially less than replacement cost of a hotel or the acquisition cost of a market performing hotel:

By pursuing deep and shallow turn opportunities and implementing our upbranding strategy, we hope to improve revenue and cash flow and increase the long-term value of the hotels we acquire in the future.

We are currently renovating three of our initial hotel properties, one of which is currently underperforming in its marketplace and represents a shallow turn opportunity. As these hotels are located in attractive markets, we believe that these properties are well positioned for future growth and will benefit from improving industry wide market conditions, our renovations and the efforts of our management team.

We believe the acquisition of hotel properties that are well located and possess sound operating fundamentals, but are underperforming in their respective markets and would benefit from upbranding, renovation or new management currently present the best opportunities to create value in the lodging industry. We may also pursue acquisition opportunities to convert non-hotel properties to use as a hotel.

We believe the operating results of certain of our existing properties may be improved as a result of renovations that are planned or underway at these hotels. We currently are renovating the Holiday Inn Williamsburg and are extensively renovating the Hilton Philadelphia Airport during the current fiscal year to comply with Hilton relicensing requirements.

The Best Western Maryland Inn is currently underperforming in its market and represents a shallow turn opportunity. We are using approximately $3.9 million of the net proceeds of our initial public offering to fund renovations to the Best Western Maryland Inn and anticipate improved operating results following renovation and upbranding to a Holiday Inn franchise.

MHI Hotels Services is currently the management company for each of our initial hotels and our leased condominium resort property.

On December 21, 2004, we entered into a ten-year strategic alliance agreement with MHI Hotels Services pursuant to which (i) MHI Hotels Services agrees to refer to us (on an exclusive basis) hotel acquisition opportunities in the United States presented to MHI Hotel Services, and (ii) unless a majority of our independent directors in good faith concludes for valid business reasons that another management company should manage a hotel owned by us, we agree to offer MHI Hotels Services or its subsidiaries the right to manage hotel properties that we acquire in the United States.

In addition, during the term of the agreement, MHI Hotels Services has the right to nominate one person for election to our board of directors at our annual meeting of stockholders, subject to the approval of such nominee by our Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee for so long as certain of our officers and directors, Andrew Sims, Kim Sims, and Christopher Sims, and their families and affiliates, hold, in the aggregate, not less than 1.5 million units or shares of our common stock.

In order for us to qualify as a REIT, neither our company nor the operating partnership or its subsidiaries can operate our hotels directly. Our hotels are leased to our TRS Lessee which has engaged MHI Hotels Services to manage the hotels. Each lease for the hotels will have a non-cancelable term of five years, subject to earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain contingencies described in the lease.

During the term of each lease, the TRS Lessee will be obligated to pay a fixed annual base rent plus a percentage rent and certain other additional charges. Base rent will accrue and be paid monthly. Percentage rent is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by gross room revenues, in excess of certain threshold amounts and other revenues for each of the initial hotels and will be paid quarterly.

Pursuant to the terms of a management agreement, we engaged MHI Hotels Services as the property manager for our six initial hotels, and intend to offer MHI Hotels Services the opportunity to manage any future hotels that we lease to our TRS Lessee. Our executive officers and certain of our directors are also directors of MHI Hotels Services.

The management agreement will have an initial term of 10 years for each of the initial hotels and a term of 10 years for each hotel we acquire in the future. The term of the management agreement with respect to each hotel may be renewed by MHI Hotels Services, upon the mutual agreement of MHI Hotels Services and MHI TRS, subject to the satisfaction of certain performance tests, for two successive periods of five years each, provided that at the time the option to renew is exercised, MHI Hotels Services is not then in default under the management agreement. If at the time of the exercise of any renewal period, MHI Hotels Services is in default, then the exercise of the renewal option will be conditional on timely cure of such default, and if such default is not timely cured, then our TRS Lessee may terminate the management agreement. If MHI Hotels Services desires to exercise any option to renew, it must give our TRS Lessee written notice of its election to renew the management agreement no less than 90 days before the expiration of the then current term of the management agreement.

Any amendment, supplement or modification of the management agreement must be in writing signed by all parties and approved by a majority of our independent directors.

MHI Hotels Services receives a base management fee, and if the hotels exceed certain financial thresholds, an additional incentive management fee for the management of our hotels.

The base management fee for each of our initial hotels and for any subsequently acquired hotels will be a percentage of the gross revenues of the hotel and will be due monthly. The applicable percentage of gross revenue for the base management fee for each of our initial hotels is as follows:

The base management fee for a future hotel first leased other than on the first day of the fiscal year will be 2% for the partial year such hotel is first leased and for the first full fiscal year such hotel is managed. There is no fee cap on the base management fee.

The incentive management fee, if any, will be due annually in arrears within 90 days of the end of the fiscal year and will be equal to 10% of the amount by which the gross operating profit of the hotels on an aggregate basis for a given year exceeds the gross operating profit for the same hotels, on an aggregate basis, for the prior year. The incentive fee may not exceed 0.25% of the aggregate gross revenue of all of the hotels included in the incentive fee calculation for the year in which the incentive fee is earned. The calculation of the incentive fee will not include results of hotels for the fiscal year in which they are initially leased, or for the fiscal year in which they are sold, and newly acquired or leased hotels will be included in the calculation beginning in the second full year such hotel is managed. All of our initial properties are eligible for the incentive fee in 2005, with the exception of the Best Western Maryland Inn, which will become eligible in 2006.

The management agreement may be terminated as to one or more of the hotels earlier than the stated term, if certain events occur, including:

In certain cases of early termination of the management agreement with respect to one or more of the hotels, we must pay MHI Hotels Services a termination fee, plus any amounts otherwise due to MHI Hotels Services pursuant to the terms of the management agreement. We will be obligated to pay termination fees in the circumstances provided that MHI Hotels Services is not then in default, subject to certain cure and grace periods.

Pursuant to the strategic alliance agreement between us and MHI Hotels Services, we have agreed to engage MHI Hotels Services for the management of any future hotels unless a majority of our independent directors in good faith concludes, for valid business reasons, that another management company should manage these hotels. If the management agreement terminates as to all of the hotels covered in connection with a default under the management agreement, the strategic alliance agreement will also terminate.

Our six initial hotels operate under franchise licenses from national hotel companies.

We anticipate that most of the additional hotels we acquire will be operated under franchise licenses. We believe that the public’s perception of quality associated with a franchisor is an important feature in the operation of a hotel. Franchisors provide a variety of benefits for franchisees, which include national advertising, publicity and other marketing programs designed to increase brand awareness, training of personnel, continuous review of quality standards and centralized reservation systems.

The franchise licenses for our hotels are held by our TRS Lessee. MHI Hotels Services must operate each of our hotels it manages in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the franchise agreement for the hotel.

The franchise licenses generally specify certain management, operational, record keeping, accounting, reporting and marketing standards and procedures with which the franchisee must comply. Under the franchise licenses, the franchisee must comply with the franchisors’ standards and requirements with respect to:

Additionally, as the franchisee, our TRS Lessee will be required to pay the franchise fees described below.

The following table sets forth certain information for the franchise licenses our initial six hotel properties:

We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income (excluding net capital gains) to our stockholders. It is our current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain our qualification for taxation as a REIT. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax on that portion of our net income

that is distributed to stockholders. If we fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, and no relief provision applies, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and we would be disqualified from re-electing treatment as a REIT until the fifth calendar year after the year in which we failed to qualify as a REIT. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through taxable REIT subsidiaries is subject to federal, state and local income taxes.

In connection with the ownership and operation of the hotels, we are subject to various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to environmental protection. Under these laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under, or in such property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, the presence of contamination from hazardous or toxic substances, or the failure to remediate such contaminated property properly, may adversely affect the owner’s ability to borrow using such property as collateral. Furthermore, a person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of a hazardous or toxic substance at a property owned by another, or who transports such substance to or from such property, may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of such substance released into the environment at the disposal or treatment facility. The costs of remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial, and the presence of such substances may adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral. In connection with the ownership and operation of the hotels, we may be potentially liable for such costs.

We have reviewed reports of Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, or ESA, that were previously prepared for the majority of our initial hotels and conducted within the past 10 years. Our review of the Phase I ESA reports and an asbestos survey on the Hilton Savannah Desoto identified the presence of a diesel underground storage tank and the presence of asbestos-containing material on the property. The diesel underground storage tank was installed in 1967, was modified in 2000 to meet requirements for upgrading of existing underground storage tank systems and, in 2003, underwent and passed an annual tank tightness test certified by the State of Georgia. The tank’s registration is certified every year by the State of Georgia.

The asbestos survey conducted on the property identified asbestos-containing materials, or ACMs, all of which are enclosed behind walls or ceilings, or otherwise not exposed. The presence of these ACMs does not, in our opinion, pose a material legal or financial risk and does not violate any law applicable to the property. Nevertheless, in response to the finding, the hotel voluntarily implemented an Asbestos Operations and Maintenance Program in 1997 giving hotel maintenance staff information on where the asbestos-containing materials are located and how to handle these materials in the event that they come into contact with them. To our knowledge, there have been no subsequent incidents or exposures to ACMs at the hotel.

Our review of the Phase I ESA conducted on September 23, 2004 at the Hilton Philadelphia Airport identified the presence of ACMs on the property. The assessment recommended that all exposed ACMs be encapsulated or removed and recommended the implementation of an Asbestos Operations and Maintenance Program on the property. The presence of these ACMs does not, in our opinion, pose a material legal or financial risk and does not violate any law applicable to the property. In response to the findings, the hotel voluntarily implemented an Asbestos Operations and Maintenance Program on the property.

We believe that our hotels are in compliance, in all material respects, with all federal, state and local environmental ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances and other environmental matters, the violation of which would have a material adverse effect on us. We have not received written notice from any governmental authority of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of our present hotel properties.

As of March 18, 2005, we employed six persons, three of whom work at our corporate office in Williamsburg, Virginia and three of whom work in our offices in Greenbelt, Maryland. All persons employed in the day-to-day operations of the hotels are employees of MHI Hotels Services, the management company engaged by our TRS Lessee to operate such hotels.

The Hilton Savannah DeSoto hotel is located at 15 East Liberty Street in historic downtown Savannah, Georgia. The Hilton Savannah DeSoto overlooks Madison Square in the center of Savannah’s historic district. The site has been a hotel since 1890 and the current building was constructed in 1968. The hotel offers views of the Savannah skyline and the Savannah River. The Hilton Savannah DeSoto is connected via an enclosed atrium to a luxury condominium building. We have no current plans for significant renovations of this hotel.

The Hilton Savannah DeSoto is a 14-story structure with 246 traditionally-styled guest rooms including five suites and an executive level. High-speed internet access is available to all guest rooms. The hotel also features a restaurant, coffee bar and lounge, outdoor pool, exercise facility, and 20,000 square feel of meeting space.

We currently lease commercial space next to the Hilton Savannah DeSoto for use as an office, retail or conference space, or for any related or ancillary purposes for the hotel. This six year operating lease covers 2,086 square feet, and provides three renewal options for periods of five-years each. We also lease the entire fourteenth floor of the Hilton Savannah DeSoto to the Chatham Club. This lease is for a period of 99 years and was assumed upon the purchase of the property.

The Hilton Wilmington Riverside is located five miles from the Wilmington International Airport at 301 N. Water Street in Wilmington, North Carolina. The Hilton Wilmington Riverside was originally constructed in 1971 and improved by expansion in 1999. The property is the only hotel located directly on the downtown Riverwalk and is situated directly across from the USS North Carolina Battleship Memorial. We have no current plans for significant renovations of this hotel.

The Best Western Maryland Inn is located near I-95 between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland at Route 198 in Laurel, Maryland. We have received approval to rebrand the hotel as a Holiday Inn. The hotel has a food and beverage facility which is connected to the guest rooms via the banquet rooms and a corridor and has its own free standing access and parking which we intend to lease to a nationally recognized franchise food and beverage operation. We currently have a non-binding site location approval for an Outback Steakhouse location.

The Shell Island Resort, which is located on the beach, is seven miles from the Wilmington International Airport on the northernmost end of Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina. Shell Island Resort is primarily a leisure destination with the majority of its business generated from guests from the Raleigh, Greensboro and Charlotte markets. Shell Island Resort is a condominium hotel and its approximately 160 condominium suites are owned by individual owners. The common areas are owned by the condominium homeowners’ association. We acquired two leases from MHI Hotels LLC and MHI Hotels Two, Inc., affiliates of our management company, MHI Hotels Services, for cash payments aggregating $3.5 million.

One lease relates to the restaurant, kitchens, meeting rooms, ball room, laundry, maintenance shop, offices and certain maid closets. The second lease relates to the resort’s common areas and includes the lobby, swimming pools, outdoor café, front desk, back office, gift shop, certain storage areas, and ingress and egress throughout the building including parking areas.

As a result of federal tax limitations attendant to our status as a REIT, we are prohibited from managing or operating the property directly. Thus, our operating partnership subleases our leasehold interests in the Shell Island Resort to MHI Hotels LLC and MHI Hotels Two, Inc. In connection with such subleases, MHI Hotels LLC and MHI Hotels Two, Inc. pay us a fixed annual rent of $640,000. Our operating partnership pays annual rent of $120,000 under the leases. Other expenses, such as maintenance and utilities, are paid by MHI Hotels LLC and MHI Hotels Services.

We are not involved in any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us.

No matters were submitted to a vote of our stockholders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

Our common stock trades on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol “MDH”. The following table sets forth, for the indicated period, the high and low sales prices for the common stock, as reported on the American Stock Exchange:

The closing price of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange on March 18, 2005 was $9.59 per share.

As of March 18, 2005, there were 3,855 holders of our common stock, including shares held in “street name” by nominees who are record holders and shares held by beneficial owners.

In order to comply with certain requirements related to our qualification as a REIT, our charter, subject to certain exceptions, limits the number of common shares that may be owned by any single person or affiliated group to 9.9% of the outstanding common shares.

On December 15, 2004, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 (SEC File No. 333118873) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

On December 16, 2004, the Company executed an Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell 6,000,000 shares of common stock to the underwriters named

therein, with an over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares. The managing underwriters of the initial public offering were BB&T Capital Markets, Ferris Baker Watts Incorporated, J.J.B. Hilliard, W.L. Lyons, Inc. and Flagstone Securities. The offering closed on December 21, 2004. All 6,000,000 shares were sold at a price to the public of $10 per share. On January 19, 2005, the underwriters exercised a portion of their over-allotment option in the amount of 700,000 shares. The Company’s net proceeds from the offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were approximately $61.3 million.

Operating Partnership Units. In connection with the acquisition of our six initial hotel properties, we issued 3,817,036 units of interest in our operating partnership. The aggregate value of the units was approximately $38 million based on the initial public offering price of our common stock.

Holders of operating partnership units have certain redemption rights, which enable them to cause the operating partnership to redeem their units in exchange for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis or, at our option, cash per unit equal to the market price of our common stock at the time of redemption. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the redemption rights will be adjusted upon the occurrence of stock splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro-rata share transactions, which otherwise would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of the limited partners or our stockholders. As of December 31, 2004, the total number of operating partnership units outstanding was 3,817,036. We have agreed to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to December 21, 2005, 3,817,036 shares of our common stock that are issuable upon redemption of the operating partnership units; however, the 3,817,036 operating partnership units cannot be redeemed by the holders prior to December 21, 2005.

The Operating Partnership units were issued in reliance on the exemption set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. Each of the contributors who received units of interest in our operating partnership in exchange for the contribution of our initial properties is an accredited investor under Rule 501 of the Securities Act.

We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT commencing with our taxable year ending December 31, 2004. To qualify as a REIT, we will be required to make annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain, which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles). The amount, timing and frequency of distributions will be authorized by our board of directors and declared by us based upon a variety of factors deemed relevant by our directors, and no assurance can be given that our distribution policy will not change in the future. Our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders will depend, in part, upon our receipt of distributions from our operating partnership which may depend upon receipt of lease payments with respect to our properties from our TRS Lessee, and in turn, upon the management of our properties by our hotel manager. Distributions to our stockholders will generally be taxable to our stockholders as ordinary income; however, because a portion of our investments will be equity ownership interests in hotels, which will result in depreciation and non-cash charges against our income, a portion of our distributions may constitute a tax-free return of capital. To the extent not inconsistent with maintaining our REIT status, our TRS may retain any after-tax earnings.

The following table sets forth selected historical financial data for MHI Hospitality Corporation beginning with its commencement of operations on December 21, 2004. The table sets forth selected historical financial data for MHI Hotel Services Group. For periods ending prior to December 21, 2004, MHI Hotel Services Group is considered the predecessor to MHI Hospitality Corporation for accounting purposes.

The financial data for MHI Hotels Services Group is comprised of financial information for the entities and interests formerly under common ownership and control by Edgar Sims, Jr., Jeanette Sims, Andrew Sims, Kim Sims and Christopher Sims. MHI Hotels Services Group formerly included three of our initial hotel properties: the Holiday Inn Downtown Williamsburg, the Hilton Wilmington Riverside and the Hilton Savannah DeSoto. Ownership interests in the entities that owned these properties were contributed to our operating partnership upon the completion of our initial public offering. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.” The following selected historical financial data for the period December 21, 2004 to December 31, 2004 for MHI Hospitality Corporation and for the period January 1, 2004 to December 20, 2004 and as of December 31, 2003 and for period ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 for MHI Hotel Services Group were derived from audited combined financial statements contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These financial statements have been audited by PKF Witt Mares, PLC (formerly Witt, Mares & Company, PLC) our independent registered public accounting firm. The selected historical financial data for the period ended December 31, 2000 was derived from unaudited financial statements. The audited and unaudited historical financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and the results of operations as of those dates and for those periods under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The historical financial information for our accounting predecessor, MHI Hotels Services Group, included herein and set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K is not necessarily indicative of our future performance. In addition, because the information presented below is only a summary and does not provide all of the information contained in our financial statements and those of our predecessor entities, including notes, you should read the following selected historical financial and operating data together with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our combined financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities as determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income, as an indication of our financial performance, or to cash flow from operating activities as determined by GAAP, as a measure of liquidity. In addition, FFO is not indicative of funds available to fund cash needs, including the ability to make cash distributions.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our operating results for 2004 reflect 11 days of activity commencing December 21, 2004, the date we successfully completed our initial public offering. As a result of our initial public offering, as well as the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option and private placement transactions, we raised net proceeds of approximately $61.3 million. We immediately utilized the proceeds to retire debt and acquire hotels. We currently have approximately $10.0 million available to acquire additional hotel properties, as well as to complete ongoing renovations.

We are a Maryland corporation that was formed in August 2004 to pursue current and future opportunities in the full-service, upper upscale, upscale and midscale segments of the hotel industry. We are self-advised and own our hotels and conduct our business through our operating partnership, MHI Hospitality, L.P. We are the sole general partner of our operating partnership and we own an approximate 63.7% interest in our operating partnership, with the remaining interest initially being held by the contributors of our initial properties as limited partners. We also intend to elect to be treated as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

We completed our initial public offering in December 2004 and sold 6,000,000 shares of common stock, resulting in net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses) of approximately $54.8 million. In conjunction with the initial public offering, we sold an additional 700,000 shares of common stock as a result of the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option in January 2005, resulting in additional proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. In addition, we entered into a $23.0 million Line of Credit with BB&T Capital Markets which will be used to facilitate acquisitions of new hotel properties as deemed appropriate by the Directors of the Company. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Our portfolio consists of six full-service, upper upscale and midscale hotels. We own a 100% interest in all of our initial hotels. Based on the initial public offering price of $10 per share, the aggregate consideration paid for 100% of the interests our six initial hotels was $105.9 million, including the assumption of $50.8 million of consolidated debt. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the majority interests in hotels comprising our accounting predecessor, MHI Hotels Services Group, and minority interests held by the controlling holders of our accounting predecessor in hotels acquired from third parties are recorded at historical cost basis. Minority interests in those entities that comprise our accounting

predecessor and the interests in hotels, other than those held by the controlling members of our accounting predecessor, acquired from third parties are recorded at fair value. We used approximately $25.2 million of proceeds from the initial public offering to retire the debt on the Holiday Inn Brownstone, the Hilton Philadelphia Airport and the Holiday Inn Downtown Williamsburg. In addition, we acquired leasehold interests in the resort property leases at the Shell Island Resort, Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina for $3.5 million in cash and paid $2.0 million in cash to restructure existing management agreements relating to five of our initial properties. The $2.0 million payment is a non-recurring charge and is recognized in our first accounting period or fiscal period end at December 31, 2004.

In the hotel industry, most categories of operating costs, with the exception of franchise, management, and credit card fees and the costs of the food and beverages served, do not vary directly with revenues. This aspect of our operating costs creates operating leverage, whereby changes in sales volume disproportionately impact operating results. Room revenue is the most important category of revenue and drives other revenue categories such as food and beverage and telephone. There are three key performance indicators used in the hotel industry to measure room revenues:

To qualify as a REIT, we cannot operate hotels. Therefore, our operating partnership leases our hotel properties to our TRS Lessee. Our TRS Lessee engaged MHI Hotel Services to manage our hotels. Our TRS Lessee, and its parent, MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc., are consolidated into our financial statements for accounting purposes. The earnings of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc. are subject to taxation similar to other C corporations.

The discussion below relates to MHI Hospitality Corporation as of December 31, 2004 and for the period from December 21, 2004 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2004. Since both our operating partnership and MHI TRS are controlled by us, our principal source of funds on a consolidated basis will be from the operations of our hotels. Prior to December 21, 2004, the discussion relates to MHI Hotels Services Group the predecessor to MHI Hospitality Corporation for accounting purposes. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations require inclusion of predecessor financial information for the periods prior to MHI Hospitality Corporation’s commencement of operations.

The critical accounting policies are described below. We consider these policies critical because they involve difficult management judgments and assumptions, are subject to material change from external factors or are pervasive, and are significant to fully understand and evaluate our reported financial results.

Investment in Hotel Properties. Hotel properties are stated at cost, net of any impairment charges, and are depreciated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 7-39 years for buildings and 3-10 years for furniture and equipment.

We review our hotel properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the hotel properties may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may cause us to perform our review include, but are not limited to adverse changes in the demand for lodging at our properties due to declining national or local economic conditions and/or new hotel construction in markets where our hotels are located. When such conditions exist, management performs an analysis to determine if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from operating activities and the proceeds from the ultimate disposition of a hotel property exceed its carrying value. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to reduce the carrying value to the related hotel property’s estimated fair market value is recorded and an impairment loss is recognized.

We estimate the fair market values of our properties through cash flow analysis taking into account each property’s expected cash flow generated from operations, holding period and expected proceeds from ultimate disposition. These cash flow analyses are based upon significant management judgments and assumptions including revenues and operating costs, growth rates and economic conditions at the time of ultimate disposition. In projecting the expected cash flows from operations of the asset, we base our estimates on future projected net operating income before depreciation and eliminating non-recurring operating expenses, which is a non-GAAP operational measure, and deduct expected capital expenditure requirements. We then apply growth assumptions based on estimated changes in room rates and expenses and the demand for lodging at our properties, as impacted by local and national economic conditions and estimated or known future new hotel supply. The estimated proceeds from disposition are determined as a matter of management’s business judgment based on a combination of anticipated cash flow in the year of disposition, terminal capitalization rate, ratio of selling price to gross hotel revenues and selling price per room.

If actual conditions differ from those in our assumptions, the actual results of each asset’s operations and fair market value could be significantly different from the estimated results and value used in our analysis.

Revenue Recognition. Hotel revenues, including room, food, beverage and other hotel revenues, are recognized as the related services are delivered. We generally consider accounts receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is required. If we determine that amounts are uncollectible, which would generally be the result of a customer’s bankruptcy or other economic downturn, such amounts will be charged against operations when that determination is made.

FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of indebtedness of Others, requires

that a liability be recorded in the guarantor’s balance sheet upon issuance of a guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a reconciliation of changes in the entity’s product warranty liabilities. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interests Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, as amended (“FIN 46R”), requires certain variable interests entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150 (“SFAS 150”), Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, clarifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in statements of financial position. Previously many of these financial instruments were classified as equity. SFAS 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003. However, in October 2003, the FASB elected to indefinitely defer implementation of certain provisions of SFAS 150 relating to limited-life subsidiaries created before November 5, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In July 2004, the emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) published its consensus on Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments.” EITF Issue No. 03-1 addresses the meaning of other than temporary impairment and its application to debt and equity securities within the scope of SFAS No. 115, certain debt and equity securities within the scope of SFAS No. 124, and equity securities that are not subject to the scope of SFAS No. 115 and accounted for under the equity method. In September 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) EITF Issue No. 03-1-1, which delays the effect date for the recognition and measurement guidance in EITF Issue No. 03-1. In addition, the FASB has issued a proposed FSP to consider whether further application guidance is necessary for securities analyzed for impairment under EITF issue No. 03-1. The Company continues to assess the potential impact that the adoption of the proposed FSP could have on our financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 “Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets – an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29”. This Statement amended APB Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard, but believes that it will not have a material impact upon the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149 “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not impact our financial statements.

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 03-6 “Participating Securities and the two-class method under FASB Statement 128,” (the “Consensus” or “EITF 03-6”). For purposes of calculating earnings per share, the Consensus requires net income to be reduced by the amount of dividends declared in the current period for each class of stock and by the contractual amount of dividends or other participation payments that are paid or accumulated for the current period. Under this Consensus, undistributed earnings for the period are allocated to participating securities based on the contractual participation rights of the security to share in those current earnings assuming all earnings for the period are distributed. We have no preferred stock issued and therefore this Consensus has no effect on our financial statements. If and when we issue preferred stock, we will follow the Consensus.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Shared-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services through share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. SFAS 123R is effective as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company intends to adopt the provisions of SFAS 123R effective July 1, 2005. The impact to compensation expense related to the equity instruments outstanding as of December 31, 2004 is not expected to be material, however, the final impact to compensation expense will be dependent on the number of equity instruments granted during any year, including their timing and vesting period, and the method used to calculate the fair value of the awards, among other factors.

MHI Hospitality Corporation – Period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004.

The hotel industry in general had a strong year in 2004 and our performance and that of our predecessor reflected the improvement in the industry.

Results of operations for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 include the operating activity of six hotels for 11 days. The results of operations for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 are not indicative of future operating results for the six hotels as the fourth quarter, in particular the weeks before and after the Christmas holiday, are traditionally slower periods for business and leisure travel.

Revenue. Revenues for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 were $0.66 million, which included room revenue of $0.4 million and food and beverage revenue of $0.2 million. Average occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 were 37.9%, $77.21, and $29.29, respectively.

Expenses. Total hotel operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 was $0.97 million. Total corporate and general administrative expenses for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 were $3.8 million. Included in corporate and general expenses were one-time charges related to our initial public offering.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 was $0.2 million.

Operating Income (Loss). The eleven day period resulted in a Net Operating Loss of $4.1 million.

Interest Expense. Interest Expense was $268,577 during the period from December 21, 2004 to December 31, 2004.

Net Income (Loss). During the eleven day period from December 21, 2004 to December 31, 2004, we posted a net loss of $2.6 million. The loss reported was primarily attributable to one-time charges relating to the Company’s IPO, including a one-time fee of $2.0 million for the amendment and restructuring of management agreements and $1.6 million in formation and start-up costs.

As a result of our operating losses for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004, we recorded an income tax benefit of $200,000.

MHI Hotels Services Group —Comparison of period from January 1, 2004 through December 20, 2004 to year ended December 31, 2003

With respect to the following discussion, note that the results of operations for 2004 include MHI Hotels Services Group’s activity for the period from January 1, 2004 through December 21, 2004 (354 days), whereas the 2003 results of operations include the full year.

Revenue. Total operating revenue increased 5.9% or $1.44 million in 2004 versus 2003. This increase was driven primarily by a 6.2% room revenue increase. All properties showed room revenue increases in 2004 versus 2003. Food and Beverage revenues also posted a positive 4.5% increase in 2004 versus 2003. This is partially due to increased occupancy, but also to an increase in banquet and meeting functions.

ADR, RevPar and Occupancy all increased over 2003 levels. ADR increased $6.40 or 6.5%. RevPar increased 9.8% or $6.47, while occupancy was up 3.1% to 69.4% for the year versus 67.3% in 2003.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses increased 1.8% in 2004 over 2003 despite the increase in occupancy and sales. The relatively minor increase in operating expense was attributable to strong cost controls and relatively low labor costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization reflects the continued depreciation of assets which have been on the books for a considerable period of time. The decline in this expense (16.2%) is consistent with the trend over the past few years as certain assets become fully depreciated.

Net Operating Income. Net Operating Income increased by 37.1% or $1.1 million. The increase in Net Operating Income is directly attributable to strong expense controls and rising revenues. Increased ADR and occupancy have driven revenues up particularly in the Savannah and Wilmington markets.

Interest Expense - The decline in interest expense reflects the continued amortization of outstanding indebtedness. This, combined with reduced balances on lines of credit, resulted in lower interest expenses for the year.

Net Income - Net Income increased by 610.3% or $853,000. This reflects management’s ability to hold down operating costs while at the same time driving higher revenues higher. Combined with lower interest costs, this trend has allowed our predecessor to post a strong gain in 2004. We expect cost containment efforts to continue to be successful in the near term which, with improved occupancy rates in our markets, will contribute to potential improvements in net income.

MHI Hotel Services Group – Comparison of year ended December 31, 2003 to year ended December 31, 2002

Overview. The hotel industry had a very challenging year in 2003. In addition, our hotel properties in Wilmington and Williamsburg, Virginia suffered significant revenue losses due to the impact of Hurricane Isabel in the second half of 2003.

Revenues. Total operating revenue increased $0.5 million, or 2.0%, from $23.9 million in 2002 to $24.4 million in 2003. This increase was due primarily to $1.1 million in growth from the Hilton Wilmington Riverside, partially offset by a drop of $0.5 million at the Hilton Savannah DeSoto.

Room revenue on an aggregate basis for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased $0.2 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2002. The Hilton Wilmington Riverside increased room revenue by $0.5 million despite losing $100,000 to Hurricane Isabel through group cancellations. Room revenue at the Hilton Savannah DeSoto declined $0.4 million due to a decision to pursue new business at a higher rate than groups and tour business.

ADR declined $0.38 or 0.4% from 2002 to 2003 while RevPAR increased approximately $0.71 or 1.1% from 2002 to 2003. Occupancy increased 1.0 occupancy percentage points during 2003 as compared to 2002.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased by $0.4 million, or 2.0%, from $21.2 million in 2002 to $21.6 million in 2003. This increase was primarily due to higher energy costs of $0.1 million and higher food and beverage costs of $0.2 million. Food and beverage costs were driven by the increase of 4.9% in food and beverage business.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by approximately $191,000 or 8.5% for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to 2002 due to the absence of major capital expenditures.

Net Operating Income. Net operating income increased 1.7% in 2003. This increase is primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization costs offset by higher energy costs.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was essentially flat year over year ended December 31, 2003 declining approximately $112,000 from 2002 as favorable interest rates and declining principal balances decreased the interest expense. The Holiday Inn Downtown Williamsburg was refinanced in 2003, which had a positive effect on interest expense in 2004.

Net Income (Loss): In 2003, we posted a net gain of approximately $140,000 as compared to a net loss of approximately $122,000 in 2002.

MHI Hotel Services Group – Comparison of year ended December 31, 2002 to year ended December 31, 2001

Overview. The hotel business began slowing in the late spring of 2001. This soft market collapsed in the fall due to terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, D.C. Travel for the months of September through December particularly in the New York and Washington, D.C. areas, including Williamsburg, Virginia, was severely impacted. The year 2002 showed a mild

rebound from these trends, but hotel business overall remained a soft market. Generally, a soft market is illustrated by stagnant growth overall. Opportunities for growth are limited and can be sector specific. Markets become soft when the economy, and travel, in particular, declines.

Revenues. Hotel operating revenue decreased by $150,000, or 0.6%. Increased revenues at the Hilton Savannah DeSoto were offset by declines at Hilton Wilmington Riverside and Holiday Inn Downtown Williamsburg.

Operating Expenses. Net hotel operating expenses were virtually unchanged for the two periods. Strict expense controls and wage and hiring freezes were put in effect after September 11, 2001. The net effect for the two periods was to hold expenses increase to approximately $13,000 increase, or 0.1%.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $68,000.

Operating Income. Net operating income increased by approximately $163,000 from $2.9 million in 2001 to $2.8 million in 2002.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased from $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 to $2.5 million in 2002. This decrease was due to stable or declining interest rates combined with declining principal balances.

Net Income (Loss). In 2001, we posted a net loss of approximately $551,000, including approximately $192,000 of loss on disposal of assets. This compares to a net loss of approximately $122,000 in 2002.

As of December 31, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8.9 million which amount includes proceeds from our initial public offering and replacement reserve accounts. We intend to use the remaining proceeds from the initial public offering and the underwriters’ exercise of their over-allotment option to invest in additional hotel properties as suitable opportunities arise and to renovate three of our existing hotel properties.

Sources and Uses of Cash. Recurring capital expenditures and debt service are the most significant short-term liquidity requirements. During the next 12 months, we expect capital expenditures will be funded by our replacement reserve accounts, other than costs that we incur to make capital improvements required by our franchisors, or as part of our upbranding strategy for the Best Western Maryland Inn. The capital reserve accounts are escrowed funds deposited monthly (5% of gross sales), and reserved for capital projects. The Hilton Savannah DeSoto and Hilton Wilmington Riverside have these reserve accounts. Our intent for the capital reserve accounts at other hotels is an overall blended rate of 4% of gross revenue.

In addition to our ongoing, recurring capital expenditures for our existing hotels, we are renovating three of our initial hotels. We intend to use approximately $7.9 million of the proceeds of the offering during fiscal 2005 to fund renovations and capital improvements at these hotels.

In addition to recurring capital expenditures, renovations and debt service as uses of cash and requirements for short-term liquidity, we are required to make annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain. We have declared a dividend of $0.17 per share payable on April 11, 2005 which we expect to fund out of working capital. See “Distributions to Stockholders.”

We expect to fund our short-term liquidity requirements, including working capital, through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under a $23.0 million secured revolving line of credit that we entered into following the closing of our initial public offering. The credit facility has a term of three years and our borrowings under the credit facility are expected to bear interest at a floating interest rate of 30 day LIBOR plus 2.5%. The LIBOR rate on December 31, 2004 was 2.42. The primary collateral for the credit facility is a first mortgage on the Holiday Inn Brownstone and the Hilton Philadelphia Airport, and a lien on all business assets including, but not limited to, equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, furniture, fixtures and proceeds thereof. We must satisfy certain financial and non-financial covenants. As of December 31, 2004, we are in compliance with all the required covenants. Failure to satisfy these covenants and conditions would create a default under this credit facility, and the lender could require us to immediately repay all outstanding indebtedness under the credit facility. The line has a balance of zero ($0.00) as of December 31, 2004. The Company intends to use the Line of Credit for capital acquisitions as deemed appropriate by the Directors of the Company.

Debt service requirements on our borrowings will reduce our cash flows. The initial public offering and the related repayment of indebtedness on certain of our initial properties, the restructuring of management agreements and our execution of a new management agreement with lower management fees will reduce historical debt service and management fee payments and, consequently, improve cash flow and liquidity. The new management fees positively impacted cash flow by approximately $2,000 for the eleven day period ended December 31, 2004.

Our long-term liquidity needs will generally include the funding of future acquisitions and development activity, the retirement of mortgage debt and amounts outstanding under our secured line of credit, and obligations under our tax indemnity agreements, if any. We remain committed to maintaining a flexible capital structure. Accordingly, in addition to the sources described above with respect to our short-term liquidity, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs through a combination of some or all of the following:

In connection with the acquisition of our six initial hotel properties, we entered into tax indemnity agreements that require us to indemnify the contributors of our initial properties against tax liabilities in the event we sell those properties in a taxable transaction during a 10-year period. Such indemnification obligations could result in aggregate payments of approximately $46.0 million. Our obligations under the tax indemnity agreements may effectively preclude us from selling or disposing of certain of the initial hotels in taxable transactions or reducing our consolidated indebtedness below approximately $11.0 million.

We anticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operating activities, with cash available from borrowings and other sources, will be adequate to meet our capital and liquidity needs in both the short and long term. However, if these sources of funds are insufficient or unavailable, our ability to satisfy cash payment obligations and make stockholder distributions may be adversely affected.

Outstanding Debt. After application of a portion of the net proceeds from the initial public offering to repay approximately $25.2 million of consolidated mortgage debt, we have approximately $25.8 million of outstanding debt. The following table sets forth the debt assumed by our operating partnership upon completion of our initial public offering.

Contractual Obligations. The following table outlines the timing of payment requirements related to the consolidated mortgage debt and other commitments of MHI Hotels Services Group as of December 31, 2004.

We do not expect our capital expenditures to exceed our reserves for such amounts, other than costs that we expect to incur to make capital improvements required by our franchisors or the capital improvements anticipated for the Best Western Maryland Inn which will be funded with the proceeds from the initial public offering.

In addition to the amounts disclosed above, we are subject to various franchise and management agreements that have ongoing fees that are contingent upon future results of operations of the hotels in our portfolio as well as a potential for termination fees dependent upon the timing and method of termination of such agreements.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Distributions to Stockholders. We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT commencing with our taxable year ending December 31, 2004. To qualify as a REIT, we will be required to make annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, (excluding net capital gain, which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles). The amount, timing and frequency of distributions will be authorized by our board of directors and declared by us based upon a variety of factors deemed relevant by our directors, and no assurance can be given that our distribution policy will not change in the future. Our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders will depend, in part, upon our receipt of distributions from our operating partnership which may depend upon receipt of lease payments with respect to our properties from our TRS Lessee, and in turn, upon the management of our properties by our hotel manager. Distributions to our stockholders will generally be taxable to our stockholders as ordinary income; however, because a portion of our investments will be equity ownership interests in hotels, which will result in depreciation and non-cash charges against our income, a portion of our distributions may constitute a tax-free return of capital. To the extent not inconsistent with maintaining our REIT status, our TRS may retain any after-tax earnings.

We generate revenues primarily from lease payments from our TRS Lessee and net income due to the operations of our TRS Lessee. Therefore, we initially will be relying primarily on the performance of the initial properties and the ability of our hotel manager to increase revenues and to keep pace with inflation.

Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. However, competitive pressures at some or all of our hotels may limit the ability of our management companies to raise room rates.

The operations of the initial properties historically have been seasonal. The periods from mid-November through mid-February are traditionally slow. The months of March and April are traditionally strong, as is October. The remaining months are generally good, but are subject to the weather and can vary significantly.

Our initial hotels are located in North Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania.

The hotel industry is highly competitive with various participants competing on the basis of price, level of service and geographic location. Each of our hotels is located in a developed area that includes other hotel properties. The number of competitive hotel properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on occupancy, average daily rate (“ADR”) and revenue per available room (“RevPAR”) of our hotels or at hotel properties acquired in the future. We believe that brand recognition, location, the quality of the hotel, consistency of services provided, and price, are the principal competitive factors affecting our hotels.

The effects of potential changes in interest rates prices are discussed below. Our market risk discussion includes “forward-looking statements” and represents an estimate of possible changes in fair value or future earnings that would occur assuming hypothetical future movements in interest rates. These disclosures are not precise indicators of expected future losses, but only indicators of reasonably possible losses. As a result, actual future results may differ materially from those presented. The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates.

To meet in part our long-term liquidity requirements, we will borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. Although we currently do not intend to do so, from time to time we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars, swaps, and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

As of December 31, 2004, we have approximately $27.8 million of fixed-rate debt and no variable rate debt. The weighted average interest rate on the fixed-rate debt was 7.79%. A change in market interest rates on the fixed portion of our debt would impact the fair value of the debt, but have no impact on interest incurred or cash flows.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MHI Hospitality Corporation and subsidiaries (Successor) as of December 31, 2004, and the combined balance sheet of MHI Hotel Services Group (Predecessor) as of December 31, 2003, the related consolidated statements of operations, owners’ equity, and cash flows for the period from December 21, 2004 to December 31, 2004 (Successor Period), and the related combined statements of operations, owners’ equity, and cash flows for period from January 1, 2004 to December 20, 2004 and for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2003 (Predecessor Periods). In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Successor, we have also audited the financial statement schedule of real estate and accumulated depreciation. These consolidated and combined financial statements and the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated and combined financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the aforementioned Successor consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MHI Hospitality Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the Successor period, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated and combined financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. Further, in our opinion, the aforementioned Predecessor combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MHI Hotel Services Group as of December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the Predecessor periods, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated and combined financial statements, effective December 21, 2004, MHI Hospitality Corporation acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Capitol Hotel Associates, LP, LLP, Brownestone Partners, LLC, Savannah Hotel Associates, LLC, Philadelphia Hotel Associates, LP and Laurel Hotel Associates, LLC in a business combination accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control with respect to the interests acquired from MHI Hotels Services Group and acquisition of minority interests recorded at fair value from third parties. As a result of the acquisition, the consolidated financial information for the period after the acquisition is presented on a different cost basis than for the periods before the acquisition and, therefore, is not comparable.

The accompanying notes to consolidated and combined financial statements are an integral part of these statements.

MHI Hospitality Corporation (the “Company”) is a self-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated in Maryland on August 20, 2004 to own full-service Upper Upscale and Midscale hotels located in primary and secondary markets in the mid-Atlantic and Southeastern regions of the United States. We operate under well-known national hotel brands such as Hilton and Holiday Inn. The Company commenced operations on December 21, 2004 when it completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) and thereafter consummated the acquisition of six hotel properties (“initial properties”). The Company utilized part of its net proceeds to repay approximately $25.0 million of mortgage indebtedness secured by the initial properties and paid an additional $16.9 million in cash related to the acquisition of the properties. Accordingly, the company had approximately $12.9 million available in cash immediately following its formation.

The IPO consisted of the sale of 6,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $10 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $60 million and net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses) of approximately $54.8 million. On December 21, 2004 the Company issued 4,000 shares of common stock to its independent directors. On January 19, 2005, the Company sold an additional 700,000 shares of common stock at a price of $9.30 per share, net of the underwriting discount, as a result of the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, resulting in additional net proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. The total net proceeds from the IPO and the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option were approximately $61.3 million.

The Company contributed all of the net proceeds from the IPO and the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to MHI Hospitality, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), in exchange for an approximate 63.7% general and limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership as of January 19, 2005. The Operating Partnership used, approximately $42.1 million of the net proceeds from the Company, along with 3,817,036 units of limited partner interest, to acquire all of the equity interests in the entities that own or lease the initial properties.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership. For the Company to qualify as a REIT, it cannot operate hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership, which is owned 63.7% by the Company as of January 19, 2005, leases its hotels to subsidiaries of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding Corporation (collectively, “MHI TRS”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. MHI TRS then engages hotel management companies to operate the hotels under management contracts. MHI TRS is treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes.

Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements of the company presented herein include all of the accounts of MHI Hospitality Corporation beginning with its commencement of operations on December 21, 2004. Prior to December 21, 2004, this report includes the financial statements of MHI Hotels Services Group (“MHIHSG”), which is not a legal entity, but rather a combination of three hotels that were owned by various limited liability companies and a limited liability partnership that were controlled by affiliates of MHI Hotels Services, LLC (“MHI Services) all of which were acquired by the Company concurrent with the completion of the IPO on December 21, 2004. MHIHSG is considered the predecessor to the Company for accounting purposes. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations require the inclusion of predecessor financial information for the periods prior to the Company’s commencement of operations. The predecessor the combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 and the combined statements of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 and for the period from January 1, 2004 through December 20, 2004 include the net assets and operations of MHIHSG on its historical cost basis.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements of the company include the accounts of MHI Hospitality Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash - Restricted cash includes real estate tax escrows and reserves for replacements of furniture, fixtures and equipment pursuant to certain requirements in the Company’s mortgage agreement with Mutual of New York (MONY). MONY holds the mortgages on the Hilton Wilmington Riverside and the Hilton Savannah DeSoto.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. Due to their short maturities, these financial instruments are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate fair value.

Investment in Hotel Properties - Investments in hotel properties are recorded at acquisition cost and allocated to land, property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations. Replacements and improvements are capitalized, while repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Upon the sale or retirement of a fixed asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Company’s accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of operations.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 15 to 40 years for buildings and building improvements and 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the useful lives of the related assets.

The Company reviews its investments in hotel properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the hotel properties may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may cause a review include, but are not limited to, adverse changes in the demand for lodging at the properties due to declining national or local economic conditions and/or new hotel construction in markets where the hotels are located. When such conditions exist, management performs an analysis to determine if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from operations and the proceeds from the ultimate disposition of a hotel property exceed its carrying value. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to reduce the carrying amount to the related hotel property’s estimated fair market value is recorded and an impairment loss recognized.

Fees expended to obtain or renew a franchise license are amortized over the life of the license or renewal. The unamortized Franchise Fees as of December 31, 2004 were $233,395. Amortization expense for the period from December 21 through December 31, 2004 was $59. Amortization expense for the period January 1, 2004 through December 20, 2004 was $82,883 and for the periods ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 was $120,903 and $47,497, respectively.

Minority Interest in Operating Partnership - Certain hotel properties have been acquired, in part, by the Operating Partnership through the issuance of limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The minority interest in the Operating Partnership is: (i) increased or decreased by the limited partners’ pro-rata share of the Operating Partnership’s net income or net loss, respectively; (ii) decreased by distributions; (iii) decreased by redemption of partnership units for the Company’s common stock and (iv) adjusted to equal the net equity of the Operating Partnership multiplied by the limited partners’ ownership percentage immediately after each issuance of units of the Operating Partnership and/or the Company’s common stock through an adjustment to additional paid-in capital. Net income or net loss is allocated to the minority interest in the Operating Partnership based on the weighted average percentage ownership throughout the period.

Revenue Recognition - Revenues from operations of the hotels are recognized when the services are provided. Revenues consist of room sales, food and beverage sales, and other hotel department revenues, such as telephone, rooftop leases and gift shop sales and rentals.

Deferred Financing Costs - Deferred financing costs are recorded at cost and consist of loan fees and other costs incurred in issuing debt. Amortization of deferred financing costs is computed using a method that approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related debt and is included in interest expense in the statements of operations.

Income Taxes - The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on that portion of its net income (loss) that does not relate to MHI HOSPITALITY TRS, the Company’s wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary. MHI HOSPITALITY TRS, which leases the Company’s hotels from the Operating Partnership, is subject to federal and state income taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”). Under SFAS 109, the Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share- Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period plus other potentially dilutive securities. The outstanding Operating Partnership units (which may be converted to common shares) have been excluded from the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation as there would be no effect on reported diluted earnings (loss) per share. For the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004, basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share were $(.42). The weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in the calculations was 6,004,000.

Stock-based Compensation - The Company does not provide stock-based employee compensation.

Comprehensive Income (Loss) - Comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. The Company does not have any items of comprehensive income (loss) other than net loss.

Segment Information - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“SFAS 131” ), requires public entities to report certain information about operating segments. Based on the guidance provided in SFAS 131, the Company has determined that its business is conducted in one reportable segment, hotel ownership.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to the predecessor financial statements to conform to the Company’s presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements - FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of indebtedness of Others, requires that a liability be recorded in the guarantor’s balance sheet upon issuance of a guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a reconciliation of changes in the entity’s product warranty liabilities. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, as amended (“FIN 46R”), requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150 (“SFAS 150”), Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, clarifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and requires that those instruments be classified as liabilities in statements of financial position. Previously, many of these financial instruments were classified as equity. SFAS 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003. However, in October 2003, the FASB elected to indefinitely defer implementation of certain provisions of SFAS 150 relating to limited-life subsidiaries created before November 5, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

In July 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) published its consensus on Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments.” EITF Issue No. 03-1 addresses the meaning of other than temporary impairment and its application to debt and equity securities within the scope of SFAS No. 115, certain debt and equity securities within the scope of SFAS No. 124, and equity securities that are not subject to the scope of SFAS No. 115 and accounted for under the equity method. In September 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) EITF Issue No. 03-1-1, which delays the effective date for the recognition and measurement guidance in EITF Issue No. 03-1. In addition, the FASB has issued a proposed FSP to consider whether further application guidance is necessary for securities analyzed for impairment under EITF issue No. 03-1. The Company continues to assess the potential impact that the adoption of the proposed FSP could have on our financial statements.

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 03-6 “Participating Securities and the two-class method under FASB Statement 128,” (the “Consensus” or “EITF 03-6”). For purposes of calculating earnings per share, the Consensus requires net income to be reduced by the amount of dividends declared in the current period for each class of stock and by the contractual amount of dividends or other participation payments that are paid or accumulated for the current period. We have no preferred stock issued and therefore this Consensus has had no effect on our financial statements. If and when we issue preferred stock, we will follow the Consensus.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Shared-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services through share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. SFAS 123R is effective as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company intends to adopt the provisions of SFAS 123R effective July 1, 2005. The impact to compensation expense is not expected to be material, however, the final impact to compensation expense will be dependent on the number of equity instruments granted during any year, including their timing and vesting period, and the method used to calculate the fair value of the awards, among other factors.

On December 21, 2004, following with the completion of the IPO, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Capitol Hotel Associates, LP, LLP, Brownestone Partners, LLC, and Savannah Hotel Associates, LLC.

It bears a variable rate of LIBOR Rate plus two and one half percent (2.50%). The LIBOR Rate on December 31, 2004 was 2.42%. The primary collateral for the credit facility is a first mortgage on the Holiday Inn Brownstone, the Hilton Philadelphia Airport, and a lien on all business assets of those properties including but limited to equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, furniture, fixtures and proceeds thereof. We must satisfy certain financial and non-financial covenants. As of December 31, 2004 we are in compliance with all of the required covenants. Failure to satisfy these conditions and covenants would create a default under this credit facility, and the lender could require us to repay all outstanding indebtedness under the facility.

The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the redemption rights will be adjusted upon the occurrence of stock splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro-rata share transactions, which otherwise would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of the limited partners or the stockholders of the Company. As of December 31, 2004, the total number of Operating Partnership units outstanding was 3,7817,036.

The base management fee for the hotels is 2.0% in 2005, rising to 2.5% in 2006 and 3.0% thereafter of total gross revenues from the hotels. The incentive management fee, if any, will be due annually in arrears within 90 days of the end of the fiscal year and will be equal to 10% of the amount by which the gross operating profit of the hotels, on an aggregate basis, for a given year exceeds the gross operating profit for the same hotels, on an aggregate basis, for the prior year. The incentive management fee may not exceed 0.25% of gross revenues of all of the hotels included in the incentive fee calculation. This new agreement replaced the previous individual contracts which were restructured for a one-time fee of $2.0 million.

For the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004, the Company paid MHI Hotels Services, LLC approximately $0.013 million in management fees. For the period from January 1, 2004 through December 20, 2004 and for the year ended December 31, 2003, Capitol Hotel Associates LP, LLP and Savannah Hotel Associates, LLC paid MHI Hotels Services, LLC approximately $0.96 million, and $0.91 million, respectively, in management fees.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its taxable income (excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on that portion of its net income that does not relate to MHI Hospitality TRS Holding Inc., the Company’s wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary. MHI Hospitality TRS, which leases the Company’s hotels from the Operating Partnership, is subject to federal and state income taxes. Since both the Company and MHI Hospitality TRS sustained losses in the eleven day period of operation, no tax liability exists, unless the Company were to lose REIT status. If that occurred the Company would be subject to regular corporate income tax rates at the state and federal level.

The components of income tax benefit for the period from December 21, 2004 through December 31, 2004 are as follows (in thousands):

The tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carry forward that gives rise to the deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2004 are as follows (in thousands):

The Company has reserved $800,000 of its deferred tax asset due to the limited operation history of MHI Hospitality Corporation. The Company believes that MHI TRS will generate sufficient taxable income to realize in full this net deferred tax asset.

The entities comprising MHI Hotels Services Group operated as limited liability companies or limited liability partnerships and, as a result, were not subject to federal or state income taxation. Accordingly, no provision was made for federal or state income taxes in the predecessor financial statements.

Ground and Building Leases-The Company leases 2,086 square feet of commercial space next to the Savannah hotel property for use as an office, retail or conference space, or for any related or ancillary purposes for the hotel and/or atrium space. The space is leased under a six-year operating lease, which expires October 31, 2006. There is a renewal option for up to three five-year periods expiring October 31, 2011, October 31, 2016 and October 31, 2021, respectively. Rent expense for all operating leases for the period ended December 21, 2004 was $37,548 and for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $37,548. The Company leases, as Landlord, the entire fourteenth floor to The Chatham Club, Inc. under a ninety-nine year lease expiring July 31, 2086. This lease was assumed upon the purchase of the building under the terms and conditions agreed to by the previous owner of the property. No rental income is recognized under the terms of this lease as the original lump sum rent payment of $990 was received by the previous owner and not prorated over the life of the lease.

The Company leases a parking lot adjacent to the Holiday Inn Brownstone in Raleigh, North Carolina. The land is leased under a second amendment, dated April 28, 1998, to a ground lease originally dated May 25, 1966. the original lease is a 50-year operating lease, which expires August 31, 2016. There is a renewal option for up to three additional ten-year periods expiring August 31, 2026, August 31, 2036, and August 31, 2046, respectively. The Company holds an exclusive and irrevocable option to purchase the leased land at fair market value at the end of the original lease term, subject to the payment of an annual fee of $9,000, and other conditions. Rent expense for this operating lease is $76,104 annually for the years ended December 31, 2004, December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.

Management Agreement-All of the six hotels that the Company owned at December 31, 2004 operate under a master management agreement with MHI Hotels Services, LLC, each for various terms (see Note 7).

Franchise Agreements-As of December 31, 2004, all of the Company’s six hotels operate under franchise licenses from national hotel companies. Under the franchise agreements, the Company is required to pay a franchise fee generally between 2.5% and 5.0% of room revenues, plus additional fees that amount to between 2.5% and 6.0% of room revenues from the hotels.

Restricted Cash Reserves-The Company is required to escrow with its lender on the Wilmington Riverside Hilton and the Savannah DeSoto Hilton an amount equal to 1/12 of the annual real estate taxes due for the properties. The Company is also required to establish a property improvement fund for each of these two hotels to cover the cost of replacement and renewals. Contributions to the property improvement fund are based on a percentage of gross revenues or receipts at each hotel equating to 5%.

Litigation-The Company is not involved in any material litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Company.

On January 11, 2005, the Company authorized the payment of a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share (unit) to the stockholders and unit holders of record as of March 15, 2005. The dividend is to be paid April 11, 2005.

On January 19, 2005, the Company sold an additional 700,000 shares of common stock at a price of $9.30 per share, net of the underwriting discount, as a result of the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, resulting in additional net proceeds of approximately $6.5 million.

The Company is actively pursuing new hotel acquisitions, which fit our business model. Although there are several potential targets, none are under contract at this time.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of MHI Hospitality Corporation have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, and have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, MHI Hospitality Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There was no change in MHI Hospitality Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act during MHI Hospitality Corporation’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, MHI Hospitality Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

Under the enhanced corporate governance standards of the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”), a majority of our directors, and all of the members of our audit committee and nominating, corporate governance and compensation committee, must meet “independence” standards as defined by the AMEX.

We believe that four of our board members, Edward Stein, David Beatty, J. Paul Carey and General Zinni meet the enhanced test of independence required by AMEX. Independence will be determined by our board of directors.

We expect that our independent directors will meet in executive sessions at least four times each year without the presence of any corporate officers. We do not intend to appoint a lead director to preside over such executive sessions. Rather, we expect that the independent directors themselves will designate a presiding independent director from time to time.

We intend to implement procedures for interested parties, including stockholders, who wish to communicate directly with our independent directors. We believe that providing a method for interested parties to communicate directly with our independent directors, rather than the full Board, will provide a more confidential, candid and efficient method of relaying any interested party’s concerns or comments.

The board of directors conducts its business through meetings of the Board and its two committees, each of which was constituted in December 2004: the Audit Committee and the Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee. Each committee is composed entirely of independent directors, as required by the rules of the AMEX.

The board of directors has established two committees. The following is a list of the current members of each committee:

The board of directors has determined that J. Paul Carey qualifies as “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K, and that he is “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT REVIEW OF AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WITH MANAGEMENT.

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 with the management of the Company.

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS WITH INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT.

The Audit Committee discussed with PKF Witt Mares PLC (formerly Witt Mares & Company, PLC), the Company’s independent accountants, the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communications with Audit Committees), as may be modified or supplemented. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from PKF Witt Mares PLC required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as may be modified or supplemented, and has discussed with PKF Witt Mares PLC its independence.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Audit Committee: J. Paul Carey (Chairman), Edward Stein and David Beatty.

We intend to pay independent, non-employee directors fees for their services as directors. Independent, non-employee directors will receive annual compensation of $15,000, plus a fee of $750 (plus out-of-pocket expenses) for attendance in person at each meeting of the board of directors, and $750 for each committee meeting attended in person. Directors who attend meetings telephonically will receive a fee of $375. Directors who are also officers or employees of our company will not be paid any director fees. Directors Edward Stein and J. Paul Carey will receive an additional $5,000 per year for their services as chair of the nominating, corporate governance and compensation, and audit committees, respectively. Additionally, we issued 1,000 shares of restricted stock to each of the independent directors upon completion of our initial public offering. Although distributions will be paid on all restricted stock, whether or not vested, at the same rate and on the same date as on shares of our common stock, these holders will be prohibited from selling such shares until they vest. All of the shares of restricted stock will vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

Our board of directors adopted a code of business conduct and ethics, including a conflicts of interest policy, relating to the conduct of our business by our employees, officers and directors. We intend to maintain the highest standards of ethical business practices and compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to our business.

A copy of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted for all employees on the Company’s external website at www.MHIHospitality.com. The company intends to post on its website any amendments to or waivers of its code.

We believe that all of our current directors and executive officers reported on a timely basis all transactions required to be reported by Section 16(a) during fiscal 2004.

We commenced operations on December 21, 2004 upon completion of our initial public offering and no executive officers received salaries from the Company in excess of $100,000 for that year. Amounts under the “Salary” column in the table below represent contractual amounts of base salary payable to our chief executive officer and our Chief Executive Officer in 2005.

Our executive officers will be entitled to such bonuses as may be determined by our nominating, corporate governance and compensation committee and the board of directors from time to time. There is no guaranteed minimum bonus. We did not pay any bonus for Mr. Sims or Mr. Zaiser in 2004, nor do we anticipate payment for bonuses in 2005. In future periods, bonuses will be payable to Messrs. Sims and Zaiser in amounts between 20% and 30% of their base salary subject to achieving quantitative performance goals to be established annually by the nominating corporate governance and compensation committee of the board of directors.

We entered into employment agreements, upon completion of our initial public offering, with Andrew Sims and William Zaiser that provide for an annual salary of $225,000 for Andrew Sims and $175,000 for William Zaiser. Mr. Sims and Mr. Zaiser will receive customary benefits, including a term life insurance policy of $1 million and disability insurance in an amount so that each will receive the same monthly payments as under his respective employment agreement. As described below, the employment agreements provide these officers with severance benefits if their employment ends under certain circumstances. We believe that the agreements will benefit us by helping to retain the executives and by allowing them to focus on their duties without the distraction of the concern for their personal situations in the event of a possible change in control of our company.

The agreements have an initial term beginning December 21, 2004 and ending on December 31, 2009. Thereafter, the term of the agreements will be extended for an additional year, on each anniversary of the effective date of the offering, unless either party gives 180 days prior written notice that the term will not be extended.

Andrew Sims’ employment agreement with us provides that we must nominate him to serve as a member of our board of directors, must include him in the proxy materials delivered to stockholders in connection with a stockholder meeting to elect directors, and recommend him for

election, and must continue to nominate and recommend him for election to our board for so long as he serves as our president and chief executive officer; subject, however, to the determination of our nominating, corporate governance and compensation committee that he satisfies the standards established for service on our board of directors. If Andrew Sims fails to be nominated to our board of directors or is involuntarily removed from our board of directors, other than for cause or vote by the stockholders, he will receive, among other things, a severance payment equal to five times his combined salary base and actual bonus compensation for the preceding fiscal year, plus indemnification for tax on such amounts.

Each of these executives will be entitled to receive benefits under his respective employment agreement if we terminate the executive’s employment without cause or the executive resigns with good reason or if there is a change in control of our company during the term of the agreement. Under these scenarios, each of the executives is entitled to receive the following:

Each of the executives will be eligible to receive payments to compensate the executive for the additional taxes, if any, imposed on the executive under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code by reason of receipt of excess parachute payments.

Each of the executives has agreed, absent a written waiver from us, during the term of their employment and for a one-year period thereafter, not to, directly or indirectly, engage in certain activities that would be in competition with us.

We have established our 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan for the purpose of recruiting and retaining our and our affiliates’ executive officers, employees, non-employee directors and consultants. The Long-Term Incentive Plan authorizes the issuance of options to purchase shares of common stock and the grant of stock awards, deferred shares, performance shares and performance units.

Administration of the Long-Term Incentive Plan will be carried out by the nominating, corporate governance and compensation committee of the board of directors, which we refer to in this section as the Committee. The Committee may delegate a portion of its authority under the Long-Term Incentive Plan to one or more officers. As used in this summary, the term “administrator” means the Committee or its delegate.

Our officers and employees and those of our operating partnership and other subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the Long-Term Incentive Plan. Our non-employee directors and other persons that provide consulting services to us and our subsidiaries are also eligible to participate in the Long-Term Incentive Plan. When we refer to a subsidiary, we mean to refer to both corporate subsidiaries and other entity subsidiaries, such as partnerships and limited liability companies, for which we directly or indirectly control at least 50% of the equity of the corporation or other entity, and any other entity in which we have a material equity interest and which is designated as an “affiliate” by the Committee.

Under the Long-Term Incentive Plan, the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be subject to stock options, stock awards, deferred shares, performance units or performance shares will be equal to 350,000 shares or units. No one participant may receive awards for more than an aggregate of 175,000 shares of common stock in any one calendar year and/or performance units for each full or fractional year included in the performance period for the award granted during the calendar year. The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued under this plan pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options is 150,000. These limitations, and the terms of outstanding awards, will be adjusted without the approval of our stockholders as the administrator determines is appropriate in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reclassification of stock or similar events. If an option terminates, expires or becomes unexercisable, or shares of common stock subject to a stock award, grant of performance shares, grant of deferred shares are forfeited, the shares subject to such option, stock award, grant of performance shares, or grant of deferred shares are available under for future awards under the Long-Term Incentive Plan. Shares which have been issued under the Long-Term Incentive Plan may not be returned to the reserve created under the Long-Term Incentive Plan for re-issuance except that shares which are repurchased or reacquired by us at the original purchase price may be returned to the reserve for future issuance under the Long-Term Incentive Plan.

The Long-Term Incentive Plan provides for the grant of (i) options intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code and (ii) options that are not intended to so qualify. Options intended to qualify as incentive stock options may be granted only to persons who are our employees or are employees of our corporate subsidiaries. No participant may be granted incentive stock options that are exercisable for the first time in any calendar year for common stock having a total fair market value (determined as of the option grant), in excess of $100,000. The principal difference between incentive stock options and other options is that a participant generally will not recognize ordinary income at the time an incentive stock option is granted or exercised, but rather at the time the participant disposes of the shares of common stock acquired under the incentive stock option. In contrast, the exercise of an option that is not an incentive stock option generally is a taxable event that requires the participant to recognize ordinary income equal to the difference between the stock’s fair market value and the option price. The employer will not be entitled to a federal income tax deduction with respect to incentive stock options except in the case of certain disqualifying dispositions of common stock acquired under the options. The employer may claim a federal income tax deduction on account of the exercise of an option that is not an incentive stock option equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by the participant.

The administrator will select the participants who are granted options and, consistent with the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Plan, will prescribe the terms of each option, including the vesting rules for such option. The option exercise price cannot be less than the common stock’s fair market value on the date the option is granted, and in the event a participant is deemed to be a 10% owner of our company or one of our corporate subsidiaries, the exercise price of an incentive stock option cannot be less than 110% of the common stock’s fair market value on the date the option is granted. The Long-Term Incentive Plan prohibits repricing of an outstanding option, and therefore, the administrator may not, without the consent of the stockholders, lower the exercise price of an outstanding option. This limitation does not, however, prevent adjustments resulting from stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications of stock or similar events. The option price may be paid in cash or, with the administrator’s consent, by surrendering shares of common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock. Options may be exercised in accordance with requirements set by the administrator. The maximum period in which an option may be exercised will be fixed by the administrator but cannot exceed 10 years, and in the event a participant is deemed to be a 10% owner of our company or one of our corporate subsidiaries, the maximum period for an incentive stock option granted to such participant cannot exceed five years. Options generally will be nontransferable except in the event of the participant’s death.

An option is exercisable only to the extent it has vested. Options will vest in accordance with a participant’s stock option agreement. Unless provided otherwise in a participant’s stock option agreement and subject to the maximum exercise period for the option, an option generally will cease to be exercisable to the extent vested upon the earlier of (i) three months following the participant’s termination of service with us or our affiliate or (ii) the expiration date under the terms of the participant’s stock option agreement. The right to exercise an option will expire immediately upon termination if the termination is for “cause” or a voluntary termination any time after an event that would be grounds for termination for cause. Upon death or disability, the option exercise period is extended to the earlier of (i) one year from the participant’s termination of service or (ii) the expiration date under the terms of the participant’s stock option agreement. The administrator also will select the participants who are granted stock awards and, consistent with the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Plan, will establish the terms of each stock award. A stock award may be subject to payment by the participant of a purchase price for shares of common stock subject to a stock award, and a stock award may be subject to vesting requirements or transfer restrictions or both as determined by the administrator. Those conditions may include, for example, a requirement that the participant complete a specified period of service or that certain performance objectives be achieved. The performance objectives may be based on the individual performance of the participant, our performance or the performance of our affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, departments or functions in which the participant is employed or has responsibility. Payment of stock awards need not qualify as “performance based compensation”, but to the extent we want the payment of a stock award to qualify as “performance based compensation” the performance standards must meet the requirements under Section 162(m) of the Code. These requirements include that the objectives are limited to specified levels of and increases in our or a business unit’s return on equity; total earnings; earnings per share; earnings growth; return on capital; return on assets; economic value added; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; sales growth; gross margin return on investment; increase in the fair market value of the shares;

share price (including but not limited to growth measures and total shareholder return); net operating profit; cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free cash flow); cash flow return on investments (which equals net cash flow divided by total capital); internal rate of return; increase in net present value or expense targets. Transfer of the shares of common stock subject to a stock award normally will be restricted prior to vesting.

The Long-Term Incentive Plan also authorizes the grant of deferred shares, i.e., the right to receive a future delivery of shares of common stock, if certain conditions are met. The administrator will select the participants who are granted awards of deferred shares and will establish the terms of each grant. The conditions established for earning the grant of deferred shares may include, for example, a requirement that certain performance objectives, such as those described above, be achieved.

The Long-Term Incentive Plan also permits the grant of performance shares and performance units to participants selected by the administrator. A performance share is an award designated in a specified number of shares of common stock that is payable in whole or in part, if and to the extent certain performance objectives are achieved. A performance unit is a cash bonus equal to a per unit value equal to the market value of our common stock at the time the unit is awarded, to the extent certain performance objectives are achieved. The performance objectives will be prescribed by the administrator and will be stated with reference to the performance objectives described above. A grant of performance units may be settled by payment of cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares and may grant to the participant or reserve to the administrator the right to elect among these alternatives.

Unless previously terminated pursuant to the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Plan, the Long-Term Incentive Plan will terminate ten years after the adoption of the Long-Term Incentive Plan by our board of directors or the date approved by the stockholders, whichever is earlier. No awards may be granted under the Long-Term Incentive Plan after the termination of the Long-Term Incentive Plan although options and stock awards granted before the termination will continue to be administered under the terms of the Long-Term Incentive Plan under the options or stock awards terminated or are exercised. The board of directors may amend or terminate the Long-Term Incentive Plan at any time, but an amendment will not become effective without the approval of our stockholders (within 12 months of the date such amendment is adopted by the board of directors) if it increases the aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Long-Term Incentive Plan, changes the class of employees eligible to receive incentive stock options or stockholder approval is required by any applicable law, regulation or rule, including any rule of the AMEX. No amendment or termination of the Long-Term Incentive Plan will affect a participant’s rights under outstanding awards without the participant’s consent. The Long-Term Incentive Plan has been established as an unfunded plan. We are not required to segregate any of our assets under the Long-Term Incentive Plan.

To date, none of our executive officers or directors has been granted options to purchase shares of our common stock under the Long-Term Incentive Plan or otherwise and no executive officer has received any stock award, deferred shares, performance shares or performance units.

On December 21, 2004, 4,000 shares of restricted stock were granted to our non-employee independent directors (1,000 shares to each of Messrs. Beatty, Stein, Carey and General Zinni).

The following graph compares the performance of the Company’s common stock during the period beginning on December 21, 2004 to December 31, 2004 with SNL REIT Hotel Index, prepared by SNL Financial, LLC, and the Russell 2000 Index.

The Russell 2000 Index measures the performance of the 2,000 smallest companies in the Russell 3000 Index, with a median market capitalization of approximately $395 million. The SNL Hotel REIT Index is currently comprised of 15 publicly traded hotel REITs, organized for purposes substantially similar to that of the Company.

Prior to the completion of our initial public offering of common stock on December 21, 2004, our Board of Directors was composed of Mr. Andrew M. Sims and Mr. J. Paul Carey. Their objective was to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified executive officers who would serve as the Company’s initial executive management team and contribute to growth in stockholder value over time. To accomplish this objective, the Company entered into employment agreements, which are discussed above under the heading “Employment Agreements,” intended to provide strong financial incentives to the Company’s executive officers, at a reasonable cost to the Company and its stockholders. Compensation consists principally of base salary, performance bonuses and awards of shares of restricted common stock under the Company’s 2004 Long Term Incentive Plan. The restricted common stock awards are intended to incentivize the executive officers to work towards achieving long-term operational and financial goals that will ultimately be reflected in stock value. The vesting schedule for restricted common stock awards is intended to facilitate executive retention.

The Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors assumed responsibility for executive officer compensation matters following the completion of the Company’s initial public offering.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally sets a limit of $1.0 million on the amount of annual compensation paid to an executive officer (other than certain enumerated categories of compensation, including performance-based compensation) that may be deducted by a publicly-held company. It is the policy of the Board of Directors and the Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee to seek to qualify executive compensation for deductibility to the extent that such policy is consistent with the Company’s overall objectives and executive compensation policy. None of the Company’s executive officers received compensation in 2004 in excess of the limits imposed under Section 162(m).

During 2004, the Company’s compensation for its executive officers consisted principally of base salary. The base salary amounts are provided for in each executive officer’s employment agreement. In setting these base salaries, the Board of Directors used an evaluation process considering the officer’s position, level and scope of responsibility and an evaluation of base salaries and other benefits of other executive officers of comparable REITS, including an analysis of the Company’s current operating results. The Board of Directors also sought to set base salaries at levels that, in the opinion of the members of the Board of Directors, provided competitive base compensation while allowing a portion of each executive officer’s total compensation to be derived from incentive pay in the form of the awards of restricted common stock and performance bonuses.

During 2004, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Andrew Sims, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The Employment Agreement provided Mr. Sims a base salary for 2004 at an annual rate of $225,000, which amount is subject to annual increase by the Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee. In the view of the Board of Directors, the initial base salary provided to Mr. Sims under his employment agreement is roughly comparable to the average base salary awarded by comparable companies to their chief executive officers. In addition, short term compensation is provided in the form of annual bonuses. We do not anticipate payment of bonuses in 2005, and no bonus has been paid for 2004. For 2006, the Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee expects that Mr. Sims may be awarded an annual bonus of up to 30% of his base salary.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

The information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of common stock has been presented in accordance with the rules of the SEC and is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership of common stock includes any shares to which a person, directly or indirectly, has or shares voting power or investment power and any shares as to which a person has the right to acquire such voting or investment power within 60 days through the exercise of any stock option or other right.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of common stock by (i) each person, other than directors and executive officers, known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock, (ii) each of our directors, (iii) each of our named executive officers and (iv) all of our directors and executive officers as a group as of March 18, 2005.

The following table provides information with respect to our equity compensation plans:

MHI Hotels Services, our management company, is owned and controlled by Andrew Sims, our chairman and chief executive officer, Kim Sims and Christopher Sims, two of our directors, William Zaiser, our executive vice president and chief financial officer, and Steve Smith, the Executive Vice President of MHI Hotels Services. Upon the completion of our initial public offering, the ownership interests held by MHI Hotels Services in the entities that controlled four of our initial hotels were contributed to our operating partnership. Two of our current directors, Kim and Christopher Sims, are currently officers and employees of MHI Hotels Services. Andrew, Kim and Christopher Sims and William Zaiser are also directors of MHI Hotels Services. Prior to the completion of our initial public offering, MHI Hotels Services owned, with certain affiliates, directly or indirectly, a 70.1% interest in the entity that owned the Holiday Inn Downtown Williamsburg and the Hilton Wilmington Riverside, a 50% interest in the entity that owned the Holiday Inn Brownstone, and an 80% interest in the entity that owned the Hilton Savannah DeSoto. These officers and directors received, directly and indirectly, units of interest in our operating partnership in connection with the acquisition of such entities. Edgar Sims, the father of Andrew, Kim and Christopher Sims, has a 100% interest in a holding company that held a 25% interest in the Best Western Maryland Inn. Jeanette Sims, the mother of Andrew, Kim and Christopher Sims, beneficially held a 30% interest in the entity that owned the Holiday

Inn Downtown Williamsburg and Hilton Wilmington Riverside hotels. In addition, we acquired two space leases for the common areas of the Shell Island Resort, a condominium resort property located in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina from MHI Hotels Two, Inc., and MHI Hotels LLC, affiliates of MHI Hotels Services. We entered into an agreement with MHI Hotels Two, Inc. and MHI Hotels LLC for the assignment of such space leases to us for payments totaling $3.5 million. We also paid MHI Hotels Services a $2.0 million cash fee in connection with the restructuring and amendment of certain existing management agreements at the completion of our initial public offering.

The consideration received by each of our directors and officers and their affiliates and family members at the completion of the initial public offering in connection with their ownership interests in our initial properties is summarized in the following table:

With respect to all of our initial hotels, other than the Best Western Maryland Inn, we agreed to indemnify the contributors of our hotels for a certain amount of the tax liability they would incur if, during the 10-year period following the completion of the initial public offering, we (i) directly or indirectly sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of the properties contributed under such agreement in a taxable transaction before the tenth anniversary of the completion of the initial public offering or, in certain cases, (ii) fail to use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to these contributors and their permitted transferees and persons taxable on the income of a contributor or permitted transferee opportunities to guarantee specified amounts of liabilities of our operating partnership to defer such guarantors’ tax liabilities. The amount for which we will indemnify the contributors is based on a sliding scale percentage over the 10-year period. Specifically, we will indemnify the contributors for 100% of their tax liability during the first five years after contribution, 50% during the sixth year, 40% during the seventh year, 30% during the eighth year, 20% during the ninth year and 10% during the tenth year. Such indemnification obligations could result in aggregate payments of up to approximately $46.0 million. For example, in the case of a taxable disposition of one of the initial hotels within five years of its contribution, we would have to indemnify the contributors for 100% of the tax on the gain allocable to them under Section 704(c) of the Internal Revenue Code and for the tax on indemnification payments. While the tax indemnities do not contractually limit our ability to conduct our business in the way we desire, we are less likely to sell any of the contributed properties in a taxable transaction during the protected period because of the significant tax liability we would have to the contributors. Instead, we would either hold the property for the entire protected period, or at least the first five years, or seek to transfer the property in a tax-deferred like-kind exchange. The indemnification obligations terminate on the tenth anniversary of the contribution.

We also used a portion of the net proceeds from the initial public offering to repay $9.8 million of outstanding mortgage debt which was guaranteed by MHI Hotels LLC, Andrew Sims, Kim Sims and Christopher Sims.

Additionally, MHI Hotels Services is the hotel manager for our six initial hotels, and benefits from the payment of management fees by us pursuant to our management agreement. MHI Hotels Services receives a base management fee equal to a percentage of the hotel’s revenues (2.0% for the first year, 2.5% for the second year and 3.0% thereafter) and an incentive fee equal to 10% of the amount by which gross operating profit of the hotels on an aggregate basis for a given year exceeds gross operating profits for the same hotels, on an aggregate basis, for a prior year, subject to a maximum amount of 0.25% of the aggregate gross revenue of the hotels.

In connection with our space leases for the Shell Island Resort, we entered into sublease arrangements with MHI Hotels LLC and MHI Hotels Two, Inc., affiliates of our management company, MHI Hotels Services. Under the sublease arrangements, MHI Hotels LLC and MHI Hotels Two, Inc. will pay us a fixed annual rent of $640,000.

In addition to the foregoing relationships and related party transactions, one of our directors, Edward Stein, is the founding partner of Weinberg and Stein, a law firm in Norfolk, Virginia that has provided legal services to MHI Hotels Services during the last fiscal year and will continue to provide legal services during the current fiscal year. Edward Stein also serves as trustee of the Krichman Revocable and Charitable Trusts, which formerly had a 20% ownership interest in Savannah Hotel Associates LLC.

We have also entered into a strategic alliance agreement with MHI Hotels Services regarding lodging investment opportunities identified in the future during the term of the agreement. MHI Hotels Services has the right to nominate one person for election to our board of directors during the term of the agreement at our annual meeting of stockholders, subject to the approval of such nominee by our Nominating, Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee for so long as certain of our officers and directors, Andrew Sims, Kim Sims, and Christopher Sims, and their families and affiliates, hold, in the aggregate, not less than 1.5 million units or shares of our common stock.

Consistent with the charter of Audit Committee, the Committee is responsible for engaging the Company’s independent auditors. Beginning with the year ended December 31, 2004, all audit and permitted non-audit services require pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The full Committee approves proposed services and fee estimates for these services.

The following is a summary of the fees billed to the Company by PKF Witt Mares PLC (formerly Witt, Mares & Company, PLC) or professional services rendered for the year ended December 31, 2004. The “Pre-IPO” period refers to the period prior to December 21, 2004, the date we completed our initial public offering.

The Audit Committee or its Chairman pre-approve all services rendered by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Audit Committee has determined that the provision by PKF

Witt Mares PLC (formerly Witt, Mares & Company, PLC) of services described under “Audit-Related Fees,” “Tax Fees,” and “Other Fees” is compatible with maintaining PKF Witt Mares PLC (formerly Witt, Mares & Company, PLC’s) independence from management and the Company.
