Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On May 4, 2012, the same day the hotel opened for business, one of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “purchasing subsidiary”) closed on the purchase of a newly constructed hotel located in Jacksonville, North Carolina. The hotel acquired by our purchasing subsidiary is a Home2 Suites® by Hilton hotel containing 105 guest rooms. The purchase price for the hotel was $12,000,000. The seller has no material relationship with us or our subsidiaries, other than through the purchase contract and other related contracts.

 

The purchase price was funded by our ongoing offering of Units (with each Unit consisting of one common share and one Series A preferred share).

 

As a result of the Jacksonville, North Carolina Home2 Suites closing described above, four of the closings have occurred under a series of purchase contracts executed on February 4, 2011 and February 25, 2011 for the potential purchase of five hotels. One purchase contract in this series was terminated on February 25, 2011. Accordingly, under this series of purchase contracts for the potential purchase of five hotels, all contracts have been either completed through purchase, or terminated. Additional information regarding four of the purchase contracts, including the purchase contract for this hotel, is set forth in our Form 8-K dated February 4, 2011 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 9, 2011, which is incorporated herein by reference. Additional information regarding one of the purchase contracts and the terminated contract is set forth in our Form 8-K dated February 25, 2011 and filed with the SEC on March 1, 2011, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

All brand and trade names, logos or trademarks contained, or referred to, in this Form 8-K are the properties of their respective owners.

 

Item 9.01.         Financial Statements and Exhibits.
