FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SOTHERLY HOTELS INC. ANNOUNCES
REDEMPTION OF WARRANT
Williamsburg, Virginia – December 27, 2013 – SoTHERLY Hotels Inc. (NASDAQ: SOHO) (the “Company”) today announced that the Company has entered into a Warrant Redemption Agreement with Essex Illiquid, LLC and Richmond Hill Capital Partners, LP (the “Holders”) to redeem the remaining portion of the Warrant corresponding to an aggregate of 1,000,000 Issuable Warrant Shares for an aggregate cash redemption price of $3.975 million.
Drew Sims, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “The redemption of the remaining portion of the Warrant further reduces the dilution exposure for our existing shareholders while also removing the complexity that this derivative has added to our quarterly earnings results. While the redemption price represents a modest premium to our current stock price, it is a substantial discount to the intrinsic value of the Warrant. This transaction efficiently executes the buy back of a significant portion of potential shares at a considerable discount to their inherent value.”
