We refer to Sotherly Hotels Inc. as the “Company,” Sotherly Hotels LP as the “Operating Partnership,” the Company’s common stock as “common stock,” the Company’s preferred stock as “preferred stock,” and the Operating Partnership’s common partnership interest as “partnership units,” and the Operating Partnership’s preferred interest as the “preferred ~~interest.~~units.” References to “we” and “our” mean the Company, its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and predecessors, collectively, unless the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated.

The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through the Operating Partnership and is its sole general partner. The partnership agreement provides that the Operating Partnership will assume and pay when due, or reimburse the Company for payment of, all costs and expenses relating to the ownership and operations of, or for the benefit of, the Operating Partnership. The partnership agreement further provides that all expenses of the Company are deemed to be incurred for the benefit of the Operating Partnership.

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 of the Company and the Operating Partnership. We believe combining the quarterly reports into this single report results in the following benefits:

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:

Sotherly Hotels Inc. (the “Company”) is a self-managed and self-administered lodging real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated in Maryland on August 20, 2004 to own full-service, primarily upscale and upper-upscale hotels located in primary and secondary markets in the mid-Atlantic and southern United States. Currently, the Company is focused on the acquisition, renovation, upbranding and repositioning of upscale to upper-upscale full-service hotels in the southern United States. The Company’s portfolio consists of investments in ~~twelve~~12 hotel properties comprising 3,156 rooms, as well as interests in 2 condominium hotels and ~~the hotel commercial condominium unit of the Hyde Resort & Residences condominium hotel.

The Company commenced operations on December 21, 2004 when it completed its initial public offering and thereafter consummated the acquisition of ~~six~~6 hotel properties (the “Initial Properties”). Substantially all of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Sotherly Hotels LP (the “Operating Partnership”)~~, which at June 30, 2019, was approximately 88.9% owned by the Company.~~ .

Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) of the Operating Partnership, the Company, as general partner, is not entitled to compensation for its services to the Operating Partnership. The Company, as general partner, conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership and the Company’s administrative expenses are the obligations of the Operating Partnership. Additionally, the Company is entitled to reimbursement for any expenditure incurred by it on the Operating Partnership’s behalf.

For the Company to qualify as a REIT, it cannot operate hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership, which at June 30, 2020 was approximately 92.6% owned by the Company, through its subsidiaries leases the hotels to direct and indirect subsidiaries of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc., MHI Hospitality TRS, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries, (collectively, “MHI ~~TRS”~~TRS Entities”), each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership.

MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc. is treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“MHI TRS”) for federal income tax purposes. As of April 1, 2020, Chesapeake Hospitality no longer manages any of the Company’s hotels.

All references in ~~this report~~these “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” to “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the Company, its Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and predecessors, collectively, unless the context otherwise requires or where otherwise indicated.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) to be a global pandemic and the virus has continued to spread throughout the United States and the world. As a result of this pandemic and subsequent government mandates and health official recommendations, hotel demand has been significantly reduced. Following the government mandates and health official recommendations, we significantly reduced operations at all of our hotels, temporarily suspended operations of our hotel condominium rental programs and dramatically reduced staffing and expenses. All of our hotels other than the rental programs at our condominium hotels, which were temporarily closed during April and May, have remained open on a limited basis in order to serve the needs of the community. The Company expects that maintaining the current limited operations will allow us to increase capacity at individual hotels as demand returns and the Centers for Disease Control (“CDC”) and state guidelines allow for an easing of travel and other business restrictions, provided we can be confident that occupancy levels and reduced social distancing will not unduly jeopardize the health and safety of our guests, employees and communities.

COVID-19 has had a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations and financial results both during the second quarter and in the period following, including a substantial decline in our revenues, profitability and cash flows from operations. While the duration and full extent of the reduction in hotel demand caused by the pandemic, the contraction of operations at our hotels and other effects are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, we expect significant negative impacts on our operations and financial results to continue until travel and business restrictions are eased, stay-at-home directives and travel orders are lifted, consumer confidence is restored and there is a substantial recovery in the economy. At a minimum, the Company expects the COVID-19 pandemic to continue to have a significant negative impact on our results of operations, financial position and cash flow through the remainder of 2020.

In response to those negative impacts, we took a number of actions to reduce costs and preserve liquidity. The Company’s board of directors suspended quarterly cash dividends on shares of the Company’s common stock and deferred payment of dividends on its 8.0% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), 7.875% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), and 8.25% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”). We also suspended most planned capital expenditure projects, reduced the compensation of our executive officers, board of directors and employees. Working closely with our hotel managers, we significantly reduced our hotels’ operating expenses.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also significantly increased economic uncertainty and led to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which could increase our cost of, and limit accessibility to, capital. As a result of the negative impacts of the pandemic and the ongoing market uncertainty, in April and May, three of our wholly-owned subsidiaries sought and received funding under the federal Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) provided in Section 7(a) of the Small Business Act of 1953, as amended by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, as amended (the “CARES Act”). Pursuant to the terms of the loan agreements and promissory notes entered into with lenders under the PPP, we borrowed an aggregate amount of approximately $10.7 million (the “PPP Loans”).

We also sought and obtained forbearance and loan modification agreements with lenders under the mortgages for certain of our hotel properties. In April 2020, we failed to make principal or interest payments under the mortgage secured by our DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach hotel, which constituted an Event of Default, and which pursuant to the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, may cause an increase in the interest rate on the outstanding loan balance for the period such Event of Default persists. Following an Event of Default, our lenders can generally elect to accelerate all principal and accrued interest payments that remain outstanding under the applicable mortgage loan and foreclose on the applicable hotel properties that are security for such loans and the lender under our Hilton Hollywood Beach mortgage has that right. If the lender were to accelerate the payment of principal and interest on the applicable mortgage, we would likely not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We are actively negotiating terms of proposed forbearance agreement and waiver with the lender similar to those we have obtained from lenders secured by our other hotel properties.

Additionally, in April 2020, we failed to make principal or interest payments under the mortgage secured by our Hyatt Centric Arlington hotel, which constituted an Event of Default. We have since entered into a loan modification agreement for the deferral of principal and interest for scheduled payments due from April 1, 2020 through August 1, 2020 as well as a deferral of payments of scheduled principal through April 1, 2021.

As of June 30, 2020, we were not in compliance with the financial covenants in the loan agreement secured by the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport. Under the terms of the loan agreement, non-compliance constituted an “Event of Default” which pursuant to the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, may cause an increase in the interest rate on the outstanding loan balance for the period such Event of Default persists. Following an Event of Default, our lenders can generally elect to accelerate all principal and accrued interest payments that remain outstanding under the applicable mortgage loan and foreclose on the applicable hotel properties that are security for such loans and the lender under our DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport mortgage has that right. If the lender were to accelerate the payment of principal and interest on the applicable mortgage, we would likely not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We are actively negotiating terms of a waiver and additional forbearance with the lender. As of June 30, 2020, we were not in compliance with the financial covenants in the loan agreements secured by the Hotel Alba and the Whitehall. Under the terms of the forbearance agreements, a waiver has been obtained through the quarters ended December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2021, respectively. The duration of the disruption on global, national and local economies cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. However, as long as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue, our future business operations, including the results of operations, cash flows and financial position will be significantly affected. We believe it is probable that over the course of the next four to six quarters we may fail to satisfy the financial covenants in these and other mortgage loan agreements. If we fail to obtain the requisite waivers, our lenders could declare us in default and require repayment of the outstanding balance on the mortgage loan. If that were to occur, we may not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We believe we will be successful in obtaining waivers, forbearance arrangements or loan modifications but cannot provide assurance we will be able to do so on acceptable terms or at all.

As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $18.5 million in unrestricted cash and approximately $6.4 million in restricted cash. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we utilized cash, cash and equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $7.9 million. The uncertainty regarding the duration and extent of the reduction in hotel demand caused by the pandemic creates uncertainty regarding our future cash flows. If our cash utilization going forward is consistent with the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and we do not raise additional capital, it is possible that the Company may utilize all of its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash within the next twelve months. Additionally, because any forbearance agreements, waivers or loan modifications would be granted at the sole discretion of the lenders, we have determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are issued. U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires that in making this determination, we cannot consider future fundraising activities, whether through equity or debt offerings or

dispositions of hotel properties, or the likelihood of obtaining forbearance agreements, covenant waivers or loan modifications, all of which are outside of the Company's control. Management believes that obtaining forbearance agreements, waivers or loan modifications from our lenders would remove the reason for the determination of substantial doubt. However, any such arrangement may lead to increased costs, increased interest rates, additional restrictive covenants and other possible lender protections. In addition to or in lieu of obtaining concessions from lenders as described above, we believe we could raise additional funds, if needed, through a combination of hotel dispositions or debt or equity financings.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Significant transactions occurring during the current and prior fiscal year include the following:

~~On February 1, 2018, we received proceeds of $5.0 million on the Hotel Ballast mortgage loan after meeting certain requirements, per the mortgage documents.~~

On February 12, 2018, the Company and the Operating Partnership closed on a sale and issuance by the Operating Partnership of an aggregate $25.0 million of the 7.25% senior unsecured notes due 2021 (the “7.25% Notes”), unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, for net proceeds after all estimated expenses of approximately $23.3 million. The Operating Partnership used the net proceeds from this offering, together with existing cash on hand and $57.0 million of asset-level mortgage indebtedness, to finance the acquisition of the Hyatt Centric Arlington and for working capital.

On February 26, 2018, we entered into a First Amendment to Loan Agreement, Amended and Restated Promissory Note, and other related documents with International Bank of Commerce to amend the terms of the mortgage loan on The Whitehall hotel located in Houston, TX. Pursuant to the amended loan documents, payments of principal and interest on a 25-year amortization schedule have begun and the maturity date was extended until February 26, 2023.

On March 1, 2018, we acquired the 318-room Hyatt Centric Arlington located in Arlington, Virginia at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $79.7 million, including seller credits (the “Arlington Acquisition”). Concurrently with the closing, we entered into a franchise agreement with an affiliate of Hyatt Hotels Corporation for the hotel to continue operating as the Hyatt Centric Arlington, and a management agreement with Highgate Hotels for the management of the hotel. The management agreement: (i) has an initial term of three years commencing March 1, 2018; (ii) provides for a base management fee equal to 2.50% of gross revenues; and (iii) provides for an incentive management fee equal to 10% of the amount by which gross operating profit, as defined in the management agreement, for a given year exceeds the budgeted gross operating profit for such year; provided, however, that the incentive management fee payable in respect of any year shall not exceed 0.5% of the gross revenues of the hotel. The Hyatt Centric Arlington is subject to a long-term ground lease agreement that covers all of the land underlying the hotel. The ground lease requires us to make rental payments of $50,000 per year in base rent and percentage rent equal to 3.5% of gross rooms revenues in excess of

~~certain thresholds, as defined in the agreements. The initial term of the ground lease expires in 2025 and may be extended by us for five additional renewal periods of 10 years each.~~

~~On March 1, 2018, we entered into a loan agreement, a first and second promissory note (“Note A” and “Note B”, respectively),~~ ~~and~~ other loan documents, including a guarantee by the Operating Partnership, to secure an aggregate $57.0 million mortgage (the “Mortgage Loan”) on the Hyatt Centric Arlington with Fifth Third Bank. Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, Note A had an original principal balance in the amount of $50.0 million; had a term of 3 years, with two 1-year extension options, each of which was subject to certain criteria; bore a floating interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 3.00%, payable monthly; and required monthly principal payments of $78,650. Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, Note B had an original principal balance in the amount of $7.0 million; had a term of 1-year, with two 1-year extension options, each of which was subject to certain criteria; bore a floating interest rate of three-month LIBOR plus 5.00%, payable monthly; and required monthly principal payments of $100,000 during the initial 1-year term, $150,000 during the first 1-year extended term, and $250,000 during the second 1-year extended term, with interest payments due monthly on the outstanding principal amount during all three terms. The full amount of the loan proceeds, together with proceeds of the 7.25% Notes offering and cash on hand, were used to finance the Arlington Acquisition.

~~On July 2, 2018, we purchased a portion of the parking lot, previously leased, adjacent to the DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh Brownstone-University for an aggregate purchase price of $3.5 million.~~

On July 27, 2018, we entered into a loan agreement and other documents, including a promissory note, to secure a mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh Brownstone-University with MetLife Commercial Mortgage Originator, LLC. The mortgage has an initial principal balance of $18.3 million, with an additional $5.2 million available upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. The mortgage has an initial term of 4 years with a 1-year extension and bears a floating rate of interest equal to the 1-month LIBOR rate plus 4.00%. The mortgage requires monthly interest-only payments and, following a 12-month lockout, can be prepaid with a penalty during its second year and without penalty thereafter. We entered into an interest-rate cap agreement to limit our exposure through August 1, 2022 to increases in LIBOR exceeding 3.25% on a notional amount of $23,500,000. We used a portion of the proceeds to repay the existing first mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh Brownstone-University and to pay closing costs, and intend to use the balance of the proceeds for general corporate purposes.

On July 31, 2018, we entered into a second amendment to the loan and security agreement; an amended, restated and consolidated mortgage loan note; and other related documents with our existing lender, TD Bank, N.A., to amend the terms of our mortgage loan on the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport. Concurrent with the loan modification, we also entered into a 5-year swap agreement with The Toronto-Dominion Bank. Pursuant to the amended loan documents: (i) the principal balance of the loan was increased from approximately $30.0 million to $42.2 million; (ii) the loan’s maturity date was extended to July 31, 2023; (iii) the loan bears a floating interest rate equal to the 1-month LIBOR rate plus 2.27% (the “Loan Rate”); (iv) the loan amortizes on a 30-year schedule with payments of principal and interest beginning immediately; (v) the loan can be prepaid without penalty; and (vi) the loan will no longer be fully guaranteed by the Operating Partnership, but the Operating Partnership has guaranteed certain standard “bad boy” carveouts. Pursuant to the swap agreement: (i) the Loan Rate has been swapped for a fixed interest rate of 5.237%; notional amounts of the swap approximate the declining balance of the loan; and (iii) we are responsible for any potential termination fees associated with early termination of the swap agreement. We used a portion of the proceeds to repay in full the existing Note B to the mortgage loan on our Hyatt Centric Arlington and to pay closing costs associated with the amendment and will use the balance of the proceeds for general corporate purposes.

On August 31, 2018, we entered into a Sales Agency Agreement, with Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P. (“Sandler O’Neill”), under which the Company may sell from time to time through Sandler O’Neill, as sales agent, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $5,000,000 and up to 400,000 shares of the Company’s 7.875% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share. Through June 30, 2019, the Company sold 88,297 shares of common stock and 52,141 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, for an aggregate total of approximately $1.8 million in gross proceeds before recognition of offering costs.

On September 18, 2018, we entered into a loan agreement and other documents, including a promissory note, to secure a mortgage on the Hyatt Centric Arlington with MetLife Real Estate Lending LLC. Pursuant to the loan documents, the Mortgage Loan has an initial principal balance of $50.0 million; has a term of 10 years; bears a fixed interest rate of 5.25%; amortizes on a 30-year schedule; and following a 5-year lockout, can be prepaid with penalty in years 6-10 and without penalty during the final 4 months of the term. The Company used the proceeds to repay the existing first mortgage on the Hyatt Centric Arlington, to pay closing costs, and for general corporate purposes.

On April 18, 2019, the Company closed a sale and issuance of 1,080,000 shares of its 8.25% Series D cumulative redeemable perpetual preferred stock, ~~(the “Series D Preferred Stock”),~~ for gross proceeds of $27.0 million before underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses payable by the Company. On May 1, 2019, the Company closed a sale and issuance of an additional 120,000 shares of its Series D Preferred Stock, for gross proceeds of $3.0 million before underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses payable by the Company, in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares of the Series D Preferred Stock. Total net proceeds after all estimated expenses were approximately $28.4 million, which the Company contributed to its Operating Partnership for an equivalent number of Series D preferred units. We used the net proceeds to redeem in full the Operating Partnership’s 7.25% Notes and for working capital.

On April 24, 2019, the Hyde Resort & Residences condominium association, 4111 South Ocean Drive Condominium Association, Inc., unilaterally terminated both (i) the existing Lease Agreement for the 400-space parking garage and meeting rooms associated with the condominium hotel and (ii) the Association Management Agreement relating to the operation and management of the hotel condominium association. We continue to operate our rental program at the Hyde Resort & Residences.

On April 26, 2019, we entered into amended loan documents to modify the existing mortgage loan on the Hotel Alba ~~(f/k/a Crowne Plaza Tampa Westshore)~~ with the existing lender, Fifth Third Bank. Pursuant to the modification, the mortgage loan principal balance remained at approximately $18.2 million; the maturity date was extended to June 30, 2022, and may be extended for two additional periods of one year each, subject to certain conditions; the mortgage loan continues to bear a floating interest rate of 1-month LIBOR plus 3.75% subject to a floor rate of 3.75%, with a new provision to reduce the floating interest rate to 1-month LIBOR plus 3.00% upon the successful achievement of certain performance hurdles; the mortgage loan amortizes on a 25-year schedule; and the mortgage loan continues to be guaranteed by ~~Sotherly Hotels LP.~~the Operating Partnership.

On May 20, 2019, the Operating Partnership redeemed the entire $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.25% Notes, at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the 7.25% Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date.

On September 6, 2019, we entered into a master agreement with Newport Hospitality Group, Inc., a Virginia corporation, and Our Town relating to the management of 10 of our hotels. On December 13, 2019, we entered into an amendment to the master agreement, as well as a series of individual hotel management agreements for the management of those ten hotels. On January 1, 2020 10 of our individual hotel management agreements with Chesapeake Hospitality expired and management of those hotels was transitioned to Our Town. Also on December 13, 2019, we entered into a sublease agreement with Our Town pursuant to which Our Town subleases 2,245 square feet of office space from us, and a credit agreement with Our Town pursuant to which the Company has agreed to make a working capital line of credit of up to $850,000 available to Our Town.

On September 26, 2019, we closed on the purchase of a commercial condominium unit of the Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences, a newly constructed 342-unit condominium hotel located in Hollywood, Florida (“Hyde Beach House”), from 4000 South Ocean Property Owner, LLLP. In connection with the closing, we (i) acquired commercial unit 2 of the Hyde Beach House, along with rights to certain limited common elements appurtenant to the commercial unit, for an adjusted purchase price of approximately $5.4 million; (ii) purchased inventories and equipment for additional consideration in the amount of approximately $0.7 million; (iii) entered into a second addendum to the purchase agreement; (iv) entered into a 20-year parking and cabana management agreement for the parking garage and poolside cabanas associated with the Hyde Beach House; (v) entered into a 20-year management agreement relating to the operation and management of the Hyde Beach House condominium association; and (vi) received a pre-opening services fee of $1.0 million.

Also, in connection with the closing, our DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach acquired a commercial condominium unit consisting of a 3,000 square foot ballroom and adjacent pre-function space, as well as 200 dedicated parking spaces within the parking garage adjacent to the hotel.

The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries have received PPP Loans pursuant to the PPP, which was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Each PPP Loan has a term of five years and carries an interest rate of 1.00%. Equal payments of principal and interest begin no later than 10 months following origination of the loan and are amortized over the remaining term of the loan. Pursuant to the terms of the CARES Act, the proceeds of each PPP Loan may be used for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs. The promissory note for each PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breach of representations and warranties or of provisions of the relevant promissory note. Under the terms of the CARES Act, each borrower can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP Loan. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. No assurance is provided that any borrower will obtain forgiveness under any relevant PPP Loan in whole or in part.

On April 16, 2020, our Operating Partnership entered into a promissory note with Village Bank and received proceeds of $333,500.

Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements of the Company presented herein include all of the accounts of Sotherly Hotels Inc., the Operating Partnership, MHI TRS and subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

The consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership presented herein include all of the accounts of Sotherly Hotels LP, MHI TRS and subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Additionally, all administrative expenses of the Company and those expenditures made by the Company on behalf of the Operating Partnership are reflected as the administrative expenses, expenditures and obligations thereto of the Operating Partnership, pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement.

Investment in Hotel Properties – Investments in hotel properties include investments in operating properties, which are recorded at fair value on acquisition date and allocated to land, property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets. 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 our accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of operations. Expenditures ~~under a renovation project,~~ which constitute additions or improvements that extend the life of the property, are capitalized.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 7 to 39 years for buildings and building improvements and 53 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.

We review our 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 permanent 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 exceeds its carrying value. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are found to be 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 would be recorded and an impairment loss recognized.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk – We hold cash accounts at several institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) protection limits of $250,000. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of the failure of these institutions is represented by the difference between the FDIC protection limit and the total amounts on deposit. Management monitors, on a regular basis, the financial condition of the financial institutions along with the balances there on deposit to minimize our potential risk.

Restricted Cash – Restricted cash includes real estate tax escrows, insurance escrows and reserves for replacements of furniture, fixtures and equipment pursuant to certain requirements in our various mortgage agreements.

Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable consists primarily of hotel guest and banqueting receivables. Ongoing evaluations of collectability are performed and an allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the portion of accounts receivable that is estimated to be uncollectible.

Inventories – Inventories, consisting primarily of food and beverages, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a method that approximates first-in, first-out basis.

Franchise License Fees – 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 June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019 were ~~$443,092~~$383,593 and $~~471,996~~,$413,354, respectively. Amortization expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, totaled $14,881 and ~~2018, totaled~~ $14,035, ~~and $13,304,~~ respectively, and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, totaled $ 29,761 and ~~2018, totaled~~ $28,904, ~~and $30,336,~~ respectively.

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Obligations – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively.

A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard. In July 2018, the FASB also issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, to give companies another option for transition and to provide lessors with a practical expedient to reduce the cost and complexity of implementing the new standard. The transition option allows companies to not apply the new lease standard in the comparative periods they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption.

We adopted this standard on January 1, 2019. We elected the practical expedients allowed under the guidance and retained the original lease classification and historical accounting for initial direct costs for leases existing prior to the adoption date. We also elected not to restate prior periods for the impact of the adoption of the new standard. The adoption of this standard has resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets and related liabilities to account for our future obligations under the acquired operating ground lease, equipment, office space, parking and land leases for which we are the lessee. See Notes 4 and 6 to the accompanying financial statements for additional disclosures on the adoption of this standard. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had right of use assets ~~net~~ of approximately ~~$3.2~~$6.2 million, net and lease obligations of approximately ~~$0.9~~$4.3 million. The right-of-use assets are included in investments in hotel properties, net or in prepaid expenses, inventory and other assets and the lease obligations are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Deferred Financing and Offering Costs – Deferred financing costs are recorded at cost and consist of loan fees and other costs incurred in issuing debt and are reflected in mortgage loans, net and unsecured notes, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred offering costs are recorded at cost and consist of offering fees and other costs incurred in advance of issuing equity and are reflected in prepaid expenses, inventory and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. 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 consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred offering costs are netted against our equity offerings when the offering is complete, whereby the costs are offset against the equity funds raised in the future and included in additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets, or if the offering expires and the offering costs exceed the funds raised in the offering then the excess will be included in corporate general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Derivative Instruments – Our derivative instruments are reflected as assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance ~~sheets~~sheet and measured at fair value. Derivative instruments used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as an interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivative instruments used to hedge exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. For a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in fair value each period is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital to the extent the hedge is effective. For a derivative instrument designated as a fair value hedge, the change in fair value each period is reported in earnings along with the change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk being hedged. For a derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting or is not designated as a hedge, the change in fair value each period is reported in earnings.

We use derivative instruments to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest-rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we currently use interest rate caps and an interest rate swap which act as cash flow hedges and are not designated as hedges. We value our interest-rate caps and interest rate swap at fair value, which we define as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). We ~~also have used derivative instruments in the Company’s stock to obtain more favorable terms on our financing. We~~ do not enter into contracts to purchase or sell derivative instruments for speculative trading ~~purposes.~~purposes.

We endeavor to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table represents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the basis for that measurement (our interest rate caps and interest rate ~~SWAP~~swap are the only assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, ~~and~~ there were no non-recurring ~~asset and liability~~assets or liabilities for fair value measurements as of June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively):

Noncontrolling Interest in Operating Partnership – Certain hotel properties were acquired, in part, by the Operating Partnership through the issuance of limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The noncontrolling 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 noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership based on the weighted average percentage ownership throughout the period.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue consists of amounts derived from hotel operations, including the sales of rooms, food and beverage, and other ancillary services. Room revenue is recognized over a customer's hotel stay. Revenue from food and beverage and other ancillary services is generated when a customer chooses to purchase goods or services separately from a hotel room and revenue is recognized on these distinct goods and services at the point in time or over the time period that goods or services are provided to the customer. Certain ancillary services are provided by third parties and the Company assesses whether it is the principal or agent in these arrangements. If the Company is the agent, revenue is recognized based upon the commission earned from the third party. If the Company is the principal, the Company recognizes revenue based upon the gross sales price. Some contracts for rooms or food and beverage services require an upfront deposit which is recorded as advanced deposits (or contract liabilities) and recognized once the performance obligations are satisfied and shown on our consolidated balance sheets.

Certain of the Company's hotels have retail spaces, restaurants or other spaces which the Company leases to third parties. Lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease and included in other operating revenues in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

The Company collects sales, use, occupancy and similar taxes at its hotels which are presented on a net basis on the consolidated statements of operations. Accounts receivable primarily represents receivables from hotel guests who occupy hotel rooms and utilize hotel services. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts sufficient to cover estimated potential credit losses.

Lease Revenue – Several of our properties generate revenue from leasing commercial space adjacent to the hotel, the restaurant space within the hotel, apartment units and space on the roofs of our hotels for antennas and satellite dishes. We account for the lease income as revenue from other operating departments within the consolidated statements of operations pursuant to the terms of each lease. Lease revenue was approximately ~~$0.4~~$0.2 million and $0.4 million, for the three months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively and approximately ~~$0.8~~$0.6 million and ~~$0.9~~$0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ respectively.

A schedule of minimum future lease payments receivable for the remaining six and twelve-month periods is as follows:

Variable Interest Entities – The Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity. The Company’s only significant asset is its investment in the Operating Partnership, and consequently, substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities represent those assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. All of the Company’s debt is an obligation of the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

Income Taxes – The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax. MHI TRS, our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary which leases our hotels from subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, is subject to federal and state income taxes.

We account for income taxes using the asset and 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. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, deferred tax assets totaled approximately $4.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, of which approximately $3.4 million and $4.4 million relate to net operating losses of our TRS Lessee. A valuation allowance is required for deferred tax assets if, based on all available evidence, it is “more-likely-than-not” that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will or will not be realized due to the inability to generate sufficient taxable income in certain financial statement periods. The “more-likely-than-not” analysis means the likelihood of realization is greater than 50%, that we will or will not be able to fully utilize the deferred tax assets against future taxable income. The net amount of deferred tax assets that are recorded on the financial statements must reflect the tax benefits that are expected to be realized using these criteria. We perform this analysis by evaluating future hotel revenues and expenses accounting for certain non-recurring costs and expenses during the current and prior two fiscal years as well as anticipated changes in the lease rental payments from the TRS Lessee to subsidiariesAs of ~~the~~

~~Operating Partnership. We~~June 30, 2020, we have determined that it is more-likely-than-not that we will not be able to fully utilize our deferred tax assets for future tax consequences, therefore noa 100% valuation allowance is required. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, deferred tax assets totaled $0 and $5.4 million, respectively.

As of June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we had no0 uncertain tax positions. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2019, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions to which the Company is subject generally include 2015 through 2017. In addition, as of June 30, 2019, the tax years that remain subject to examination, because of NOL carryforwards, by the major tax jurisdictions to which MHI TRS is subject include the years 2009 and 2014 through 2018.

The Operating Partnership is generally not subject to federal and state income taxes as the unit holders of the Partnership are subject to tax on their respective shares of the Partnership’s taxable income.

Stock-based Compensation – The Company’s 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which the Company’s stockholders approved in April 2013, permit the grant of stock options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock and performance share compensation awards to its employees and directors for up to 350,000 and 750,000 shares of common stock, respectively. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its stockholders.

Under the 2013 Plan, the Company has made stock awards totaling ~~176,350~~238,600 shares, including ~~143,350~~79,850 non-restricted shares and ~~33,000~~158,750 restricted shares issued to certain executives and employees and to its independent directors. All awards have vested except for ~~20,000~~15,000 shares issued to one employee, which will vest over 4 years, 30,000 shares issued to one employee, which will vest over 10

years and ~~13,000~~15,000 shares issued to one employee, which will vest over 5 years and 15,000 shares issued to the Company’s independent directors in February ~~2019,~~2020, which will vest by December 31, ~~2019~~2020.

Under the 2013 Plan, the Company may issue a variety of performance-based stock awards, including nonqualified stock options. The value of the awards is charged to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting or service period based on the value of the award as determined by the Company’s stock price on the date of grant or issuance. As of June 30, ~~2019, no~~2020, 0 performance-based stock awards have been granted. Total compensation cost recognized under the 2013 Plan for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $18,195 and ~~2018 was each~~ $8,025, respectively and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $145,065 and ~~2018 was~~ $108,383, ~~and $119,378~~, respectively.

Additionally, the Company sponsors and maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) and related trust for the benefit of its eligible employees. We reflect unearned ESOP shares as a reduction of stockholders’ equity. Dividends on unearned ESOP shares, when paid, are considered compensation expense. The Company recognizes compensation expense equal to the fair value of the Company’s ESOP shares during the periods in which they are committed to be released. For the three months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, the ESOP compensation cost was ~~$67,160~~$18,487 and ~~$61,673,~~$67,160, respectively and for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, the ESOP compensation cost was ~~$133,253~~$64,147 and ~~$121,843,~~$133,253, respectively. To the extent that the fair value of the Company’s ESOP shares differs from the cost of such shares, the differential is recognized as additional paid in capital. Because the ESOP is internally leveraged through a loan from the Company to the ESOP, the loan receivable by the Company from the ESOP is not reported as an asset nor is the debt of the ESOP shown as a liability in the consolidated financial statements.

Advertising – Advertising costs were ~~$90,052~~$64,964 and $~~147,804~~90,052 for the three months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively and were ~~$187,720~~$ 159,255 and $~~246,117~~ 187,720 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Involuntary Conversion of Assets – We record gains or losses on involuntary conversions of assets due to recovered insurance proceeds to the extent the undepreciated cost of a nonmonetary asset differs from the amount of monetary proceeds received. During each of the three-month periods ending June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, we recognized $0$14,168 and ~~$27,824,~~$0, respectively, and during the six-month periods ending June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, we recognized $26,607 and approximately $0.2 million ~~and~~ ~~$0.9 million~~, respectively, in gain on involuntary conversion of assets, which is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Comprehensive Income – Comprehensive income as defined, includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. We do not have any items of comprehensive income other than net income.

Segment Information – We have determined that our business is conducted in ~~one~~1 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 (“GAAP”)~~U.S. GAAP 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.

New Accounting Pronouncements – In ~~July 2018,~~March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. ~~2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, The FASB decided to provide another transition method~~2020-04, Reference Rate Reform – Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional expedients and ~~practical expedients in addition~~exceptions to the existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition ~~method (a modified retrospective approach~~from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The update provides guidance in accounting for ~~leases that exist or are~~changes in contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions as a result of this reference rate reform. The option expedients and exceptions contained within this update, in general, only apply to contract amendments and modifications entered into ~~after~~prior to January 1, 2023. The provisions of this update will most likely affect our financial reporting process relate to modifications of contracts with lenders and the ~~beginning~~related hedging contracts associated with each respective modified borrowing contract. In general, the provision of the ~~earliest comparative period in the financial statements)~~update would benefit us by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date (such as January 1, 2019, for calendar year-end public business entities) and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balancemodifications of ~~retained earnings in the period of adoption. We adopted the practical expedients allowed~~debt contracts with lenders that fall under the guidance of ASC Topic 740 to be accounted for as a non-substantial modification and ~~retained~~not be considered debt extinguishment. As of June 30, 2020, we have not entered into any contract modification as it directly relates to reference rate reform, but we anticipate having to undertake such modifications in the ~~original lease classification and historical accounting for initial direct costs for leases existing prior to the adoption date on January 1, 2019. We also elected not to restate prior periods for~~future. While we anticipate the impact of ~~the adoption of the new standard and instead recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment~~this update to ~~beginning retained earnings as of the adoption date. These standards resulted in the recognition of right-to-use assets and related liabilities~~be to ~~account for~~ our ~~future obligations under the ground lease arrangements for which~~benefit, we are still evaluating the ~~lessee. The right of use assets and corresponding liabilities were recorded in the amount of approximately $6.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively as of January 1, 2019.~~

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842)~~. The FASB issued this ASU to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under current GAAP and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The amendments in this ASU were effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application of this ASU was permitted for all entities. We created an inventory of our leases and have recorded current ground lease, office lease, other right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The standard required a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. This standard has been updated as noted above in ASU No. 2018-11. We adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations or cash flows.overall impact.

~~Hyatt Centric Arlington~~Hyde Beach House Resort & Residences. On ~~March 1, 2018,~~September 26, 2019, we acquired a commercial condominium unit ofthe ~~Hyatt Centric Arlington~~Hyde Beach House condominium hotel, for a total fair value of consideration transferred including inventory and other assets of approximately $79.7 million (after amendment of the initial purchase price of $81.0 million). We considered this acquisition to be an asset acquisition as opposed to a business combination, applying the screen test, as discussed in the Accounting Standards Update 2017-01 – Business Combinations – Clarifying the Definition of a Business (Topic 805).$6.3 million.

The results of operations of the hotel iscommercial condominium unit are included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. The total revenue and net ~~income~~loss related to the Hyatt Centric Arlington acquisition for the period March 1, 2018 to June 30, 2018 were approximately $8.6 million and $2.1 million, respectively. The total revenue and net income related to the Hyatt Centric Arlington acquisition for the period January 1, ~~2019~~2020 to June 30, ~~2019 were~~2020 are approximately ~~$11.3~~$0.7 million and ~~$0.5~~$1.0 million, respectively.

There is no pro forma financial information since this is a new operation without prior historical information.

The allocation of the respective purchase price is based on fair value as follows:

Investment in hotel properties, net as of June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018~~2019 consisted of the following:

~~On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 842,~~ ~~Leases~~ and applied it prospectively. At adoption, we also elected the practical expedients which permitted us to not reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, classification, and initial direct costs. Consequently, on January 1, 2019, we recognized right-of-use assets and related liabilities related to our acquired operating ground lease, equipment, parking, office space and land leases, all Our review of which are operating leases. Since most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we used incremental borrowing rates, which averaged to 8.0%. All of these leases have terms ranging from less than one year to 50 years and we included the exercise of options to extend when it is reasonably certain we will exercise such option. See Note 6 for additional information about the acquired operating ground lease, parking, office space and land leases. The right-of-use assets and liabilities are amortized to rent expense and depreciation expense over the term of the underlying lease agreements. Aspossible impairment as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, ~~our right-of-use assets, net of approximately $3.2 million, are included~~resulted in ~~the~~0 impairment on our investment in hotel properties, net or prepaid expenses, inventory and other assets and our related lease liabilities of approximately $0.9 million are presented in accounts payable and accrued expenses in our consolidated balance sheets. The adoption of this standard had minimal impact on our statements of operations.respectively.

Mortgage Loans, Net. As of June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we had approximately ~~$362.1~~$357.2 million and approximately $~~364.8~~358.6 million of outstanding mortgage debt, respectively. The following table sets forth our mortgage debt obligations on our hotels.

As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we ~~were~~failed to make three consecutive monthly payments of principal and interest under the mortgage secured by our DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach hotel, which constituted an Event of Default, and which pursuant to the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, may cause an increase in ~~compliance~~the interest rate on the outstanding loan balance for the period such Event of Default persists. Following an Event of Default, our lenders can generally elect to accelerate all principal and accrued interest payments that remain outstanding under the applicable mortgage loan and foreclose on the applicable hotel properties that are security for such loans. In addition, we failed to meet the financial covenants under the mortgage agreement which triggers a “cash trap” which requires substantially all the profit generated by our hotels to be deposited directly into a lockbox account and swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of the lender. We are currently negotiating an amendment to the loan agreement and have not received a Notice of Default.

As of June 30, 2020, we had failed to three consecutive monthly payments of principal and interest under the mortgage secured by our Hyatt Centric Arlington hotel, which constituted an Event of Default. On July 15, 2020 we entered into a forbearance agreement removing the default.

As of June 30, 2020, we failed to meet the financial covenants under the mortgages secured by the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport, the Hotel Alba, and the Whitehall. We have received waivers of the financial covenants from the lender on the Hotel Alba mortgage through December 31, 2020, provided that we maintain the cash collateral on deposit with the lender, and the lender on the Whitehall mortgage through September 30, 2021. Cash collateral on deposit with the Hotel Alba Tampa lender was approximately $2.6 million at June 30, 2020, subject to certain withdrawal privileges. We are currently negotiating an amendment to the loan agreement with the lender on the DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport for additional forbearance as well as a waiver of the financial covenants.

As of June 30, 2020, we failed to meet the financial covenants under the mortgage secured by the DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront which triggers a “cash trap”. Substantially all ~~debt covenants, current~~the profit generated by our hotels to be deposited directly into a lockbox account and swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of the lender until the property meets the criteria in the loan agreement for exiting the “cash trap”.

PPP Loans, The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries have received PPP Loans pursuant to the PPP, which was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Each PPP Loan has a term of five years and carries an interest rate of 1.00%. Equal payments of principal and interest begin no later than 10 months following origination of the loan and are amortized over the remaining term of the loan. Pursuant to the terms of the CARES Act, the proceeds of each PPP Loan may be used for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs. The promissory note for each PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults and breach of representations and warranties or of provisions of the relevant promissory note. Under the terms of the CARES Act, each borrower can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP Loan. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on ~~all~~the use of loan ~~payments and not otherwise~~proceeds in ~~default~~accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. No assurance is provided that any borrower will obtain forgiveness under any relevant PPP Loan in whole or in part.

On April 16, 2020, our Operating Partnership entered into a promissory note with Village Bank and received proceeds of ~~our mortgage loans, as amended or modified.~~$333,500.

On April 28, 2020, we entered into a promissory note and received proceeds of $9,432,900 under a PPP Loan from Fifth Third Bank, National Association.

On May 6, 2020, we entered into a second promissory note with Fifth Third Bank, National Association and received proceeds of $952,700 under a PPP Loan.

Total future mortgage debt maturities for the remaining six and ~~twelve month~~twelve-month periods, without respect to any extension of loan maturity or loan modification after June 30, 2020, were as follows:

~~7.25% Unsecured Notes.~~ On February 12, 2018, the Operating Partnership issued its 7.25% Notes in the aggregate amount of $25.0 million, unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. The indenture requires quarterly payments of interest and was to mature on February 15, 2021. The 7.25% Notes were redeemed on May 20, 2019 at 101% of face value.

Ground, Building, Parking and Land Leases – We lease 2,086 square feet of commercial space next to The DeSoto for use as an office, retail or conference space, or for any related or ancillary purposes for the hotel and/or atrium space. In December 2007, we signed an amendment to the lease to include rights to the outdoor esplanade adjacent to the leased commercial space. The areas are leased under a six-year operating lease, which expired October 31, 2006 and has been renewed for the third of ~~three~~five optional five-year renewal periods expiring October 31, ~~2011, October 31, 2016 and October 31, 2021, respectively.~~2021. Rent expense for this operating lease for ~~each of~~the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, totaled $18,246 and $36,942, respectively and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, ~~and 2018~~ totaled $18,246 and ~~$36,492,~~$36,942, respectively.

We lease, as landlord, the entire fourteenth floor of The DeSoto hotel property 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. NoNaN 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.

We lease land adjacent to the Hotel Alba for use as parking under a five-year renewable agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation that commenced in July 2009. In May 2014, we extended the agreement for an additional five years. The agreement expires in July ~~2024. The agreement~~2024, requires annual payments of $2,432, plus tax, and may be renewed for an additional five years. Rent expense for each of the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, totaled $651 and $1,301, respectively.

WeUnder a new lease ~~5,216~~starting January 1, 2020, we lease approximately 8,500 square feet of commercial office space in Williamsburg, Virginia under an agreement with a ten-year term beginning January 1, 2020. The initial annual rent under the agreement is $218,875, with the rent for each successive annual period increasing by 3.0% over the prior annual period’s rent. The annual rent will be offset by a tenant improvement allowance of $200,000, to be applied against one-half of each monthly rent payment until such time as ~~amended, that commenced September 1, 2009 and was extended to August 31, 2019.~~the tenant improvement allowance is exhausted.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan - The Company adopted an Employee Stock Ownership Plan in December 2016, effective January 1, 2016. The ESOP is a non-contributory defined contribution plan covering all employees of the Company. The Company sponsors and maintains the ESOP and related trust for the benefit of its eligible employees. The ESOP is a leveraged ESOP, meaning funds are loaned to the ESOP from the Company. The Company entered into a loan agreement with the ESOP on December 29, 2016, pursuant to which the ESOP may borrow up to $5.0 million to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock on the open market,

which serve as collateral for the loan. Between January 3, 2017 and February 28, 2017, the Company’s ESOP purchased 682,500 shares of the Company’s common stock of an aggregate cost of $4.9 million.

Shares purchased by the ESOP are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as contributions are made to the ESOP by the Company. The share allocations will be accounted for at fair value at the date of allocation. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the ESOP had purchased 682,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market for approximately $4.9 million, which the ESOP borrowed from the Company pursuant to the loan agreement.

We recognized as compensation cost $13,144 and $133,253 during the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. The remaining ~~594,378~~556,801 unallocated shares have an approximate fair value of ~~$4.1~~$1.4 million, as of June 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

~~A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax provision to the Company’s income tax provision is as follows:~~

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had a net deferred tax asset of approximately $4.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, of which, approximately $3.4 million and $4.4 million, respectively, are due to accumulated net operating losses of our TRS Lessee. These loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2028 if not utilized by such time. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the remainder of the deferred tax asset is attributable to year-to-year timing differences of approximately $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for accrued, but not deductible, employee performance awards, vacation and sick pay, bad debt allowance and depreciation.

We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. Because of expected future taxable income of our TRS Lessee, we have not recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our net deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. We regularly evaluate the likelihood that our TRS Lessee will be able to realize its deferred tax assets and the continuing need for a valuation allowance. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we determined, based on all available positive and negative evidence, that it is more-likely-than-not that future taxable income will be available during the carryforward periods to absorb all of the consolidated federal and state net operating loss carryforward of our TRS Lessee. A number of factors played a critical role in this determination, including:

~~Income (Loss)~~Loss per Share. The limited partners’ outstanding limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership (which may be redeemed for common stock upon notice from the limited partner and following our election to redeem the units for stock rather than cash) have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as there would be no effect on the amounts since the limited partners’ share of ~~income~~loss would also be added back to net ~~income (loss).~~loss. The shares of the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Company, except upon the occurrence of a change of control and have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as there would be no impact on the current controlling stockholders. The non-committed, unearned ESOP shares are treated as reducing the number of issued and outstanding common shares and similarly reducing the weighted averagenumber of common shares outstanding. The allocated and committed to be released shares have been included in the weighted average diluted earnings

per share calculation ~~and~~since there would be an antidilutive effect from the dilution by these shares, although the amount of compensation for allocated shares is reflected in net ~~income.~~loss available to common stockholder for basic computation. There are no0 ESOP units, therefore there is no dilution on the calculation of earnings per unit. The computation of basic and diluted net ~~income~~loss per share is presented below.

Information included and incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and as such may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our current strategies, expectations, and future plans are generally identified by our use of words, such as “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “potential,” “opportunity,” and similar expressions, whether in the negative or affirmative, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements regarding our expected financial position, business and financing plans are forward-looking statements.

Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from the Company’s forward-looking statements is the potential increased adverse effect of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, financial performance and condition, operating results and cash flows, the real estate market and the hospitality industry specifically, and the global economy and financial markets. The significance, extent and duration of the impacts caused by the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence at this time, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the extent and effectiveness of the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, the Company’s ability to negotiate forbearance and/or modifications agreements with its lenders on acceptable terms, or at all, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified under the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of COVID-19. Such additional factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to effectively acquire and dispose of properties; the ability of the Company to implement its operating strategy; changes in general political, economic and competitive conditions and specific market conditions; reduced business and leisure travel due to travel-related health concerns, including the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 or any other infectious or contagious diseases in the U.S. or abroad; adverse changes in the real estate and real estate capital markets; financing risks; litigation risks; regulatory proceedings or inquiries; and changes in laws or regulations or interpretations of current laws and regulations that impact the Company’s business, assets or classification as a REIT. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. Additional factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:

Additional factors that could cause actual results to vary from our forward-looking statements are set forth under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, in this report and subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating any forward-looking statement contained in this report or incorporated by reference herein. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report or, in the case of any document incorporated by reference, the date of that document. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are qualified by the cautionary statements in this section. We undertake no obligation to update or publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances or changes in expectations after the date of this report, except as required by law. In addition, our past results are not necessarily indicative of our future results.

Sotherly Hotels Inc. is a self-managed and self-administered lodging REIT incorporated in Maryland in August 2004 to pursue opportunities in the full-service, primarily upscale and upper-upscale segments of the hotel industry located in primary and secondary markets in the mid-Atlantic and southern United States. Substantially all of the assets of Sotherly Hotels Inc. are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Sotherly Hotels LP. We commenced operations in December 2004 when we completed our initial public offering and thereafter consummated the acquisition of the Initial Properties.

Our hotel portfolio currently consists of twelve full-service, primarily upscale and upper-upscale hotels, comprising 3,156 rooms, as well as interests in two condominium hotels and ~~the hotel commercial condominium unit of the Hyde Resort & Residences.~~their associated rental programs. The Company owns hotels that operate under well-known brands such as DoubleTree by Hilton, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, Sheraton and Hyatt Centric, as well as independent hotels. We sometimes refer to our independent and soft-branded properties as our collection of boutique hotels. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our portfolio consisted of the following hotel properties:

We conduct substantially all our business through our Operating Partnership. We are the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership, and we own an approximate ~~88.9%~~92.6% interest in our Operating Partnership, as of the date of this filing, with the remaining interest being held by limited partners who were the contributors of our Initial Properties and related assets.

To qualify as a REIT, neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership can operate our hotels. Therefore, our wholly-owned hotel properties are leased to our MHI TRS ~~Lessees,~~Entities, which are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. Our MHI TRS ~~Lessees~~Entities then engage eligible independent hotel management companies to operate the hotels under a management agreement. Our MHI TRS ~~Lessees~~Entities have engaged ~~Chesapeake Hospitality~~Our Town and Highgate Hotels to manage our hotels. Our MHI TRS ~~Lessees,~~Entities, and their parent, MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc., are consolidated into each of our financial statements for accounting purposes. The earnings of MHI Hospitality TRS Holding, Inc. are subject to taxation similar to other C corporations.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic and the virus has continued to spread throughout the United States and the world. As a result of this pandemic and subsequent government mandates and health official recommendations, hotel ~~management agreements with Chesapeake Hospitality for~~demand has been significantly reduced. Following the government mandates and health official recommendations, we significantly reduced operations at all of our hotels, temporarily suspended operations of our hotel condominium rental programs and dramatically reduced staffing and expenses. All of our hotels have remained open on a limited basis in order to serve the needs of the community – with the exception of the rental programs at our condominium hotels, which were temporarily closed for April and May. The Company expects that ~~it manages,~~maintaining the current limited operations will allow us to increase capacity at individual hotels as demand returns and the CDC and state guidelines allow for an easing of travel and other ~~than~~business restrictions, provided we can be confident that occupancy levels and reduced social distancing will not unduly jeopardize the health and safety of our guests, employees and communities.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also significantly increased economic uncertainty and led to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which has limited our ability to access capital. In April 2020, we failed to make principal or interest payments under the mortgage secured by our DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach hotel, which constituted an Event of Default, and which pursuant to the terms of the mortgage loan agreement, may cause an increase in the interest rate on the outstanding loan balance for the period such Event of Default persists. Following an Event of Default, our lenders can generally elect to accelerate all principal and accrued interest payments that remain outstanding under the applicable mortgage loan and foreclose on the applicable hotel properties that are security for such loans and the ~~Hyde Resort & Residences, terminate according~~lender under our Hilton Hollywood Beach mortgage has that right. If the lender were to ~~their~~accelerate the payment of principal and interest on the applicable mortgage, we would likely not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We are actively negotiating terms of proposed forbearance agreement and waiver with the lender similar to those we have obtained from lenders secured by our other hotel properties.

As of June 30, 2020, ~~(the “Expiring Agreements”). On~~we were not in compliance with the financial covenants in the loan agreements secured by the Hotel Alba and the Whitehall. Under the terms of the forbearance agreements, a waiver has been obtained through the quarters ended December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2021, respectively. The duration of the disruption on global, national, and local economies cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. However, as long as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue, our future business operations, including the results of operations, cash flows and financial position will be significantly affected. We believe it is probable that over the course of the next four to six quarters we may fail to satisfy the financial covenants in these and other mortgage loan agreements. If we fail to obtain additional waivers, forbearance arrangements, or loan modifications, our lenders could declare us in default and require repayment of the outstanding balance on the mortgage loan. If that were to occur, we may not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We believe we will be successful in obtaining waivers, forbearance arrangements or loan modifications but cannot provide assurance we will be able to do so on acceptable terms or at all.

As of June ~~18, 2019, Chesapeake Hospitality notified us~~30, 2020, we had approximately $18.5 million in unrestricted cash and approximately $6.4 million in restricted cash. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we utilized cash, cash and equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $7.9 million. The uncertainty regarding the duration and extent of the reduction in hotel demand caused by the pandemic creates uncertainty regarding our future cash flows. If our cash utilization going forward is consistent with the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and we do not raise additional capital, it is possible that the Company may utilize all of its ~~intent~~cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash within the next twelve months. Additionally, because any forbearance agreements, loan modifications or waivers would be granted at the sole discretion of the lenders, we have determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to ~~renew~~continue as a going concern for one year after the ~~Expiring Agreements on~~date the ~~same terms~~financial statements are issued. U.S. GAAP requires that in making this determination, we cannot consider future fundraising activities, whether through equity or debt offerings or dispositions of hotel properties, or the likelihood of obtaining forbearance agreements or covenant waivers, all of which are outside of the Company's control. Management believes that prospectively obtaining forbearance agreements, loan modifications and waivers from our lenders may remove the reason for anthe determination of substantial doubt. However, any such concession may lead to increased costs, increased interest rates, additional ~~five years. On July 15, 2019~~restrictive covenants and other possible lender protections. In addition to or in lieu of obtaining waivers as described above, we ~~notified Chesapeake Hospitality~~believe we could raise additional funds, if needed, through a combination of ~~our intent not to renew~~hotel dispositions or ~~extend the~~debt or equity financings.

~~Expiring Agreements. We are currently in discussions with another hotel management company regarding the management of those hotels.~~

In the hotel industry, room revenue is considered the most important category of revenue and drives other revenue categories such as food, beverage, catering, parking, and telephone. There are three key performance indicators used in the hotel industry to measure room revenues:

RevPAR changes that are primarily driven by changes in occupancy have different implications for overall revenues and profitability than changes that are driven primarily by changes in ADR. For example, an increase in occupancy at a hotel would lead to additional variable operating costs (such as housekeeping services, laundry, utilities, room supplies, franchise fees, management fees, credit card commissions and reservations expense), but could also result in increased non-room revenue from the hotel’s restaurant, banquet or parking facilities. Changes in RevPAR that are primarily driven by changes in ADR typically have a greater impact on operating margins and profitability as they do not generate all of the additional variable operating costs associated with higher occupancy.

When calculating composite portfolio metrics, we include available rooms at the Hyde Resort & Residences that participate in our rental program and are not reserved for owner-occupancy.

We also use FFO, Adjusted FFO and Hotel EBITDA as measures of our operating performance. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

The following tables illustrate the key operating metrics for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively, for the Company’s wholly-owned properties (“actual” portfolio metrics), as well as eleven wholly-owned properties in the portfolio that were under the Company’s control during the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and the corresponding period in ~~2018~~2019 (“same-store” portfolio metrics). Accordingly, the actual data does not include the participating condominium hotel ~~room~~rooms at the Hyde Resort & Residences or the Hyde Beach House, and the same-store data does not reflect the performance of ~~the Hyatt Centric Arlington which was acquired on March 1, 2018, or~~ our ~~interest~~interests in the Hyde Resort & ~~Residences.~~Residences and the Hyde Beach House.

There was also an aggregate increase in indirect expenses ~~of approximately $0.6~~ $0.4 million~~at our remaining~~ ~~properties.~~.

Depreciation and Amortization.

Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Hedging Activities. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the fair market value of our interest rate caps is ~~$9,505~~$904, and the fair market value of our interest rate ~~SWAP~~swap liability is approximately ~~$2.2~~$3.9 million.

Income Taxes. We had an income tax provision of approximately $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to an income tax provision of approximately $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019 compared to an income tax provision of approximately $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.~~2019. The income tax provision iswas primarily derived from ~~the operations~~a reduction of our deferred tax assets and through the establishment of a 100% valuation allowance of approximately $5.4 million, during the three months ending March 31, 2020. During the three month period ending June 30, 2020, we increased the valuation allowance by approximately $5.9 million to approximately $11.3 million, as of June 30, 2020.

Our MHI TRS ~~Lessees. Our TRS Lessees~~Entities realized operating ~~income~~losses for each of the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018.~~2019.

Net (Loss)/Income. We realized a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of approximately $29.6 million compared to a net income of approximately $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, ~~of approximately $0.8 million compared to a net income of approximately $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018,~~ because of the operating results discussed above.

We consider FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Hotel EBITDA, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures, to be key supplemental measures of our performance and could be considered along with, not alternatives to, net income (loss) as a measure of our performance. These measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities determined by U.S. GAAP or amounts available for our discretionary use and should not be considered alternative measures of net income, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP.

FFO and Adjusted FFO. Industry analysts and investors use FFO as a supplemental operating performance measure of an equity REIT. FFO is calculated in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income or loss determined in accordance

with U.S. GAAP, excluding extraordinary items as defined under U.S. GAAP and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for any noncontrolling interest from unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by itself.

We consider FFO to be a useful measure of adjusted net income (loss) for reviewing comparative operating and financial performance because we believe FFO is most directly comparable to net income (loss), which remains the primary measure of performance, because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO assists in comparing the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. Although FFO is intended to be a REIT industry standard, other companies may not calculate FFO in the same manner as we do, and investors should not assume that FFO as reported by us is comparable to FFO as reported by other REITs.

We further adjust FFO for certain additional items that are not in NAREIT’s definition of FFO, including changes in deferred income taxes, any unrealized gain (loss) on hedging instruments or warrant derivative, loan impairment losses, losses on early extinguishment of debt, aborted offering costs, loan modification fees, franchise termination costs, costs associated with the departure of executive officers, litigation settlement, over-assessed real estate taxes on appeal, operating asset depreciation and amortization, change in control gains or losses and acquisition transaction costs. We exclude these items as we believe it allows for meaningful comparisons between periods and among other REITs and is more indicative than FFO of the on-going performance of our business and assets. Our calculation of Adjusted FFO may be different from similar measures calculated by other REITs.

The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) to FFO and Adjusted FFO for the ~~three and~~ six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018:~~2019:

EBITDA. We believe that excluding the effect of non-operating expenses and non-cash charges, and the portion of those items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are also based on historical cost accounting and may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance, can help eliminate the accounting effects of depreciation and financing decisions and facilitate comparisons of core operating profitability between periods and between REITs, even though EBITDA also does not represent an amount that accrued directly to shareholders.

Hotel EBITDA. We define Hotel EBITDA as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) income tax provision or benefit, (4) equity in the income or loss of equity investees, (5) unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments not included in other comprehensive income, (6) gains and losses on disposal of assets, (7) realized gains and losses on investments, (8) impairment of long-lived assets or investments, (9) loss on early debt extinguishment, (10) gains or losses on change in control, (11) gain on exercise of development right, (12) corporate general and administrative expense, ~~(12)~~(13) depreciation and amortization, ~~(13)~~(14) gains and losses on involuntary conversions of assets, ~~(14)~~(15) distributions to preferred stockholders and ~~(15)~~(16) other operating revenue not related to our wholly-owned portfolio. We believe this provides a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our wholly-owned hotels and its operators have direct control. We believe Hotel EBITDA provides investors with supplemental information on the on-going operational performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of third-party management companies operating our business on a property-level basis.

Our calculation of Hotel EBITDA may be different from similar measures calculated by other REITs.

Our principal sources of cash are net cash flow from hotel operations, sale of common and preferred stock, debt financing and proceeds from hotel dispositions. Our principal uses of cash are acquisition of hotel properties, improvements to hotel properties, debt service, share repurchases operating costs, corporate expenses and distributions to holders of common and preferred shares (and units). As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $18.5 million of unrestricted cash and $6.4 million of restricted cash.

Operating Activities. Our principal source of cash to meet our operating requirements, including distributions to unitholders of the Operating Partnership and stockholders of our preferred and common stock, as well as debt service (excluding debt maturities), is through the operations of our hotels. Cash flow ~~provided by~~used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019~~2020was approximately ~~$14.4 million. We had a net decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019of approximately $1.8~~$4.9 million ~~compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. We expect that cash on hand and the~~generally consisting of net cash provided by operations will be adequate to fund our continuing operations, monthly and quarterly scheduled payments of principal and interest (excluding any balloon payments due upon maturity of a debt) and the payment of dividends (distributions) to the Company’s stockholders (and unitholders of the Operating Partnership) in accordance with federal income tax laws which require us to make annual distributions, as “qualifying distributions,” to the Company’s stockholders of at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding its net capital gains, and reduced by certain non-cash items).flow from hotel operations.

Investing Activities. During the six months ended June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we used approximately ~~$8.8~~$3.0 million on capital expenditures of which ~~approximately $3.4 million~~ related to the routine replacement of furniture, fixtures and ~~equipment, approximately $5.4 million related mainly to renovation of our hotels in Arlington, Virginia, Hollywood and Tampa, Florida.~~equipment. The Operating Partnership received a payment on its loan to the Company ~~in the amount of~~totalling approximately $0.1 million. ~~We also received approximately $0.2 million for proceeds from insurance for involuntary conversions.~~

Financing Activities. During the six months ended June 30, ~~2019, we~~2020, the Company received ~~approximately $28.4 million for the issuance of Series D Preferred Shares and Units, we redeemed the 7.25% Notes for $25.3 million, we paid dividend and distribution payments~~proceeds of approximately ~~$6.4~~$10.7 million ~~for the Company~~from unsecured PPP loans and made distributions to holders of its common and preferred shares of approximately ~~$6.6 million for the~~$4.2 million. The Operating Partnership made distributions to holders of its common and preferred units of approximately $4.3 million. The Company and Operating Partnership also made payments onof deferred financing costs of approximately $0.1 million and made principal payments on its mortgages of approximately ~~$2.9~~$1.6 million.

We ~~anticipate that~~intend to maintain all of our ~~need for recurring~~hotels, including any hotel we acquire in the future, in good repair and condition, in conformity with applicable laws and regulations and, when applicable, with franchisor’s standards. Routine capital ~~expenditures for~~improvements are determined through the ~~replacement~~annual budget process over which we maintain approval rights, and ~~refurbishment~~which are implemented or administered by our management companies.

From time to time, certain of ~~furniture, fixtures~~our hotel properties may undergo renovations as a result of our decision to upgrade portions of the hotel, such as guestrooms, meeting space and ~~equipment over~~restaurants, in order to better compete with other hotels in our markets. In addition, we may be required by a franchisor to complete a property improvement program (“PIP”) in order to bring the ~~next 12~~hotel up to ~~24 months will be at historical norms for our properties~~the franchisor’s standards. Generally, we expect to fund renovations and ~~the industry.~~ improvements out of working capital, including restricted cash, proceeds of mortgage debt or equity offerings.

Historically, we have aimed to maintain overall capital expenditures, except for those required by our franchisors as a condition to a franchise license or license renewal, at 4.0% of gross revenue. In ~~addition:~~

We expect capital expenditures for the recurring replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment at certain of our properties will be funded by our replacement reserve ~~accounts, other than costs that we incur to make capital improvements required by our franchisors.~~accounts. Reserve accounts are escrowed accounts with funds deposited monthly and reserved for capital improvements or expenditures with respect to all of our hotels.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the Company's operations and financial results both during the first quarter and in the period following, including a substantial decline in our revenues, profitability and cash flows from operations. While the duration and full financial impact of the reduction in hotel demand caused by the pandemic, contraction of operations at our hotels and other effects are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, we expect significant negative impacts on our operations and financial results to continue until travel and business restrictions are eased, stay-at-home directives and travel orders are lifted, consumer confidence is restored and an economic recovery commences. At a minimum, the Company expects that the COVID-19 pandemic to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position and cash flow through the remainder of 2020. In response to these negative impacts, we took a number of actions to reduce costs and preserve liquidity as described in this Quarterly Report and the accompanying notes to financial statements. The COVID-19 pandemic has also significantly increased economic uncertainty and led to disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which has limited our ability to access capital.

As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had total cash of approximately ~~$37.3 million,~~$24.9 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we utilized cash, cash and equivalents and restricted cash of ~~which~~ approximately ~~$32.4 million was~~$7.9 million. The uncertainty regarding the duration and extent of the reduction in hotel demand caused by the pandemic creates uncertainty regarding our future cash flows. If our cash utilization going forward is consistent with the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and we do not raise additional capital, it is possible that the Company may utilize all of its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash within the next twelve months.

As described in “-- Effects of COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business” above, we borrowed an aggregate amount of approximately ~~$4.9~~$10.7 million ~~was restricted for real estate taxes, insurance, capital improvement~~in PPP Loans and ~~certain other expenses, or otherwise restricted. We expect that~~have sought forbearances and loan modifications with the lenders under the loan agreements secured by our ~~cash on hand combined with our cash flow from the operations~~hotels. Two of our ~~hotels should be adequate to fund continuing operations, recurring capital expenditures for~~property-level loan agreements are currently operating under an Event of Default and the ~~refurbishment and replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment, and monthly and quarterly scheduled payments~~lenders under those loans could accelerate the payment of principal and interest ~~(excluding any balloon payments due upon maturity~~on those mortgages. We are actively negotiating terms of proposed forbearance agreements, and waivers for non-compliance for those mortgages as well as other loan agreements under which we are likely to trigger a default in over the next four quarters as the effects of the ~~indentures~~COVID-19 pandemic on our business continue. If we fail to obtain additional waivers, forbearance arrangements or loan modifications, our lenders could declare us in default and require repayment of the outstanding balance on the mortgage ~~debt).~~loan. If that were to occur, we may not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We believe we will be successful in obtaining necessary waivers, forbearance arrangements and loan modifications from our mortgage lenders but cannot provide assurance we will be able to do so on acceptable terms or at all.

In addition, certain of our loan agreements also contain cash trap provisions that have been, or which we expect will be, triggered as the performance of our hotel properties secured by those agreements decline and some of our lenders have added cash trap provisions to the loan modification agreements containing payment forbearance terms. As those provisions are triggered or implemented, substantially all of the cash flow generated by those hotel properties is deposited into a lock box account and swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of the respective lenders. These provisions affect our liquidity requirements until such time the cash trap is no longer in effect.

We intend to meet our liquidity requirements resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, for hotel property acquisitions, property redevelopment, investments in new joint ventures, the retirement of maturing mortgage debt, and other debt maturities, through:

Other than scheduled monthly mortgage loan principal payments, we do not have any upcoming mortgage debt obligations that are scheduled to mature in 2020. We have approximately $8.4 million in mortgage loan principal obligations maturing in August 2021, which relates to the mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Laurel, after accounting for anticipated reductions in scheduled monthly principal payments. If the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue through the second quarter of 2021, we expect that additional capital will be required in order to repay that mortgage when it matures.

Subject to availability of capital, we intend to continue to invest in hotel properties as suitable opportunities arise. The success of our acquisition strategy depends, in part, on our ability to access additional capital through other sources. There can be no assurance that we will continue to make investments in properties that meet our investment criteria. Additionally, we may choose to dispose of certain hotels as a means to provide liquidity.

We expect to meet our liquidity requirements for hotel property acquisitions, property redevelopment, investments in new joint ventures, the retirement of maturing mortgage debt, and other debt maturities, through net proceeds from additional issuances of common shares, additional issuances of preferred shares, issuances of units of limited partnership interest in our Operating Partnership, secured and unsecured borrowings, the selective disposition of non-core assets, and cash on hand. From time to time and subject to market conditions, we may also seek to refinance mortgage debt prior to maturity where appropriate. We remain committed to a flexible capital structure and strive to maintain prudent debt leverage.

Other than monthly mortgage loan principal payments, we do not have any upcoming mortgage debt obligations maturing in 2019 or 2020. We have approximately $8.2 million in debt obligations maturing in 2021, which relates to the mortgage on the DoubleTree by Hilton Laurel, accounting for reductions for future monthly principal payments.

Our mortgage loan agreements contain various financial ~~covenants.~~covenants directly related to the financial performance of the collateralized properties. Failure to comply with these financial covenants could result from, among other things, changes in the local competitive environment, ~~general economic conditions and~~ disruption caused by renovation activity, or major weather ~~disturbances.~~disturbances, general economic conditions as well as the effects of the ongoing global pandemic.

If we violate the financial covenants contained in these agreements, we may attempt to negotiate waivers of the violations or amend the terms of the applicable mortgage loan agreement with the lender; however, we can make no assurance that we would be successful in any such negotiation or that, if successful in obtaining waivers or amendments, such waivers or amendments would be on attractive terms. Some mortgage loan agreements provide alternate cure provisions which may allow us to otherwise comply with the financial covenants by obtaining an appraisal of the hotel, prepaying a portion of the outstanding indebtedness or by providing cash collateral until such time as the financial covenants are met by the collateralized property without consideration of the cash collateral. Alternate cure provisions which include prepaying a portion of the outstanding indebtedness or providing cash collateral may have a material impact on our liquidity.

If we are unable to negotiate a waiver or amendment or satisfy alternate cure provisions, if any, or unable to meet any alternate cure requirements and a default were to occur, we would possibly have to refinance the debt through additional debt financing, private or public offerings of debt securities, or additional equity financing.

~~Under~~As described in “-- Effects of COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business” and “--Liquidity and Capital Resources” above, the ~~terms~~DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport is currently operating under an Event of ~~our non-recourse secured~~Default resulting from non-compliance with the financial covenants in the mortgage loan ~~agreements, failure~~agreement.

In addition, we failed to comply with the financial covenants included in the ~~loan agreement triggers cash flows~~terms of the mortgage agreements on the Hotel Alba and Whitehall hotels, but were able to obtain waivers from the ~~property to be directed to the lender, which may limit~~respective lenders.

Certain of our ~~overall liquidity as~~loan agreements also include financial covenants that ~~cash flow would not be available to us.~~

trigger a “cash trap”. As of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we were not in compliance with such financial covenants included in the mortgage agreements on the DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach and the DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront. As such, our lenders may exercise their right to initiate a “cash trap” provisions. As those provisions are triggered or implemented, substantially all ~~debt covenants, current on all loan payments~~of the cash flow generated by those hotel properties is deposited into a lock box account and ~~not otherwise in default under any~~swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of ~~our mortgage loans, as amended or modified.~~the respective lenders.

~~We intend~~As approved by its board of directors and announced on March 17, 2020, the Company has suspended its regular quarterly cash common stock dividends in order to ~~continue to declare quarterly distributions to our stockholders.~~preserve liquidity as a result of the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. The amount of future common stock (and Operating Partnership unit) distributions will be based upon quarterly operating results, general economic conditions, requirements for capital improvements, the availability of debt and equity capital, the Internal Revenue Code’s annual

distribution requirements and other factors, which the Company’s board of directors deems relevant. The amount, timing and frequency of distributions will be authorized by the Company’s 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.

~~In January 2019, we authorized~~ As previously announced, the record date for the dividends on the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and Series D Preferred Stock that were to be paid April 15, 2020 to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2020 have each been declared and the payment of dividends on all classes of the Company’s preferred stock has been deferred. The Company may not make distributions with respect to any shares of its common stock, unless and until full cumulative distributions on the outstanding preferred stock for all past unpaid periods are paid or declared and a ~~quarterly dividend (distribution) of $0.125 per common share (and unit).~~

~~In April 2019, we increased~~sum sufficient for the ~~quarterly dividend (distribution) to $0.13 per common share (and unit).~~

~~In July 2019, we authorized a quarterly dividend (distribution) of $0.13 per common share (and unit).~~payment thereof in cash is set aside.

We generate revenues primarily from lease payments from our MHI TRS ~~Lessees~~Entities and net income from the operations of our MHI TRS ~~Lessees.~~Entities. Therefore, we rely primarily on the performance of the individual properties and the ability of the management company to increase revenues and to keep pace with inflation. Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to keep pace with inflation. However, competitive pressures at some or all of our hotels may limit the ability of the management company to raise room rates.

Our expenses, including hotel operating expenses, administrative expenses, real estate taxes and property and casualty insurance are subject to inflation. These expenses are expected to grow with the general rate of inflation, except for energy, liability insurance, property and casualty insurance, property tax rates, employee benefits, and some wages, which are expected to increase at rates higher than inflation.

Our hotels are located in Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia. As a result, we are particularly susceptible to adverse market conditions in these geographic areas, including industry downturns, relocation of businesses, local stay-at-home and business closure orders, and any oversupply of hotel rooms or a reduction in lodging demand. Adverse economic developments in the markets in which we have a concentration of hotels, or in any of the other markets in which we operate, or any increase in hotel supply or decrease in lodging demand resulting from the local, regional or national business climate, could materially and adversely affect us.

The operations of our hotel properties have historically been seasonal. The months of April and May are traditionally strong, as is October. The periods from mid-November through mid-February are traditionally slow with the exception of hotels located in certain markets, namely Florida and Texas, which typically experience significant room demand during this period. These patterns have been disrupted by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and we expect that disruption to continue throughout 2020 at a minimum.

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 improvements and 3-10 years for furniture and equipment. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the controlling interests in hotels comprising our accounting predecessor, MHI Hotels Services Group, and noncontrolling interests held by the controlling holders of our accounting predecessor in hotels, which were acquired from third parties, contributed to us in connection with the Company’s initial public offering, are recorded at historical cost basis. Noncontrolling 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 at the time of acquisition.

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 permanent 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 a

recoverability analysis to determine if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from operating activities and the estimated proceeds from the ultimate disposition of a hotel property exceed its carrying value. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are found to be less than the carrying amount of the hotel property, an adjustment to reduce the carrying value to the related hotel property’s estimated fair market value would be recorded and an impairment loss is recognized.

There were no charges for impairment of hotel properties recorded for the six months ended June 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

In performing the recoverability analysis, we project future operating cash flows based upon significant assumptions regarding growth rates, occupancy, room rates, economic trends, property-specific operating costs and future capital expenditures required to maintain the hotel in its current operating condition. We also project cash flows from the eventual disposition of the hotel based upon various factors including property-specific capitalization rates, ratio of selling price to gross hotel revenues and the selling price per room.

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. Revenues are reported net of occupancy and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities. Receivables for amounts earned under various contracts are subject to audit.

Income Taxes. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. Because of expected future taxable income of our MHI TRS ~~Lessee,~~Entities, we have ~~not~~ recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our net deferred tax asset as of June 30, ~~2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.~~2020 to $0. We regularly evaluate the likelihood that our MHI TRS ~~Lessee~~Entities will be able to realize its deferred tax assets and the continuing need for a valuation allowance. ~~At each~~As of June 30, ~~2019 and December 31, 2018,~~2020, we determined, based on all available positive and negative evidence, that it is more-likely-than-not that future taxable income will not be available during the carryforward periods to absorb all of the consolidated federal and state net operating loss carryforward. ~~A number of factors played a critical role in this determination, including:~~

~~Should unanticipated adverse financial trends occur, or other negative evidence develop, a valuation allowance may be necessary in the future against some or all of our deferred tax assets.~~

For a summary of recently adopted and newly issued accounting pronouncements, please refer to the New Accounting Pronouncements section of Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Information included and incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as such may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our current strategies, expectations, and future plans are generally identified by our use of words, such as “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “potential,” “opportunity,” and similar expressions, whether in the negative or affirmative, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements regarding our expected financial position, business and financing plans are forward-looking statements. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to:

Additional factors that could cause actual results to vary from our forward-looking statements are set forth under the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The effects of potential changes in interest rates 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 could 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. From time to time we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We do not intend to hold or issue derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $319.5 million of fixed-rate debt, including the mortgage on our Philadelphia, Pennsylvania hotel, which is fixed by an interest rate swap to 5.237% and including the PPP Loan of $10.7 Million, with a fixed rate of 1.0% and approximately $50.6 million of variable-rate debt. The weighted-average interest rate on the fixed-rate debt was 4.66%. 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. Our variable-rate debt is exposed to changes in interest rates, specifically the changes in 1-month LIBOR. Assuming that the aggregate amount outstanding on the mortgages on the Hotel Alba, DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh Brownstone-University and The Whitehall remains at approximately $50.6 million, the balance at June 30, 2020, the impact on our annual interest incurred and cash flows of a one percent increase in 1-month LIBOR would be approximately $0.5 million.

As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately ~~$313.6~~$310.2 million of fixed-rate debt, including the mortgage on our Philadelphia, Pennsylvania hotel, which is fixed by an interest rate swap to 5.237% and approximately ~~$51.1~~$50.8 million of variable-rate debt. The weighted-average interest rate on the fixed-rate debt was 4.78%. 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. Our variable-rate debt is exposed to changes in interest rates, specifically the changes in 1-month LIBOR. Assuming that the aggregate amount outstanding on the mortgages on the Hotel Alba, DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh ~~Brownstone-University~~Brownstone and the mortgage on The Whitehall ~~remains~~remained at approximately ~~$51.1~~$50.8 million, the balance at ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2019, the impact on our annual interest incurred and cash flows of a one percent increase in 1-month LIBOR would be approximately $0.5 million.

As of December 31, 2018, we had approximately $341.3 million of fixed-rate debt, including the mortgage on our Philadelphia, Pennsylvania hotel, which is fixed by an interest rate swap to 5.237% and approximately $51.3 million of variable-rate debt. The weighted-average interest rate on the fixed-rate debt was 4.96%. 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. Our variable-rate debt is exposed to

changes in interest rates, specifically the changes in 1-month LIBOR. Assuming that the aggregate amount outstanding on the mortgages on the Hotel Alba, DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh Brownstone and the mortgage on The Whitehall remained at approximately $51.3 million, the balance at December 31, 2018, the impact on our annual interest incurred and cash flows of a one percent increase in 1-month LIBOR would be approximately $0.5 million.

The Company’s management, under the supervision and participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its 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), as of June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, its disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed in its reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and instructions, and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or its internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of the controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Sotherly Hotels Inc. have been detected.

There was no change in Sotherly Hotels Inc.’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 Sotherly Hotels Inc.’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Sotherly Hotels Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Operating Partnership’s management, under the supervision and participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Sotherly Hotels Inc., as general partner, has evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act), as of June 30, ~~2019.~~2020. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and instructions, and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The Operating Partnership’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Sotherly Hotels Inc., as general partner, does not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures or the internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of the controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Sotherly Hotels LP have been detected.

There was no change in Sotherly Hotels LP’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 Sotherly Hotels LP’s last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Sotherly Hotels LP’s internal control over financial reporting.

We are not involved in any material legal proceedings, ~~other than~~nor to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us. We are involved in routine legal proceedings ~~occurring in~~arising out of the ordinary course of ~~business. We believe that these routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, are not~~business most of which is expected to be covered by insurance, and none of which is expected to have a material toimpact on our financial condition ~~and~~or results of operations.

~~Except as set forth below, there~~There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018~~2019 and our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, ~~2019.~~

The hotel management agreements for a majority of the hotels in our portfolio will expire on January 1, 2020 and we are in discussions with another hotel management company to manage those hotels. If we are not able to secure reasonable terms for the management of our hotels, or if the new management company is not able to successfully manage our hotels, our returns will suffer.

Our hotel management agreements with Chesapeake Hospitality for the management of the DeSoto, DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront, DoubleTree by Hilton Laurel, DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport, DoubleTree by Hilton Raleigh Brownstone-University, Georgian Terrace, Hotel Alba, Hotel Ballast, Sheraton Louisville Riverside, and Whitehall hotels are scheduled to expire on January 1, 2020. ~~We have notified Chesapeake Hospitality that we do not intend to renew or extend those hotel management agreements beyond their current terms.~~

We are currently in discussions with another hotel management company to transition the management of these hotels, but we cannot be certain that we will secure reasonable terms on a timely basis, or at all. We are dependent on our hotel management companies for the management of our hotels. If we do not enter into new management agreements on reasonable terms, our returns will suffer, which could negatively impact our stock price.

In addition, the transition to a new hotel management company could be disruptive to the operation of one or more of our hotels. If our new hotel management company is not able to manage the transition effectively, or if it is not successful in managing our hotels after the transition has been concluded, our returns at one or more of our hotels could be negatively affected.

From time to time, the Operating Partnership issues limited partnership units to the Company, as required by the Partnership Agreement, to mirror the capital structure of the Company to reflect additional issuances by the Company and to preserve equitable ownership ratios.

The Company’s distribution on the shares of the Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares, and Series D Preferred Shares are in arrears for two quarterly periods. When distributions on any shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock are in arrears for six or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive, the holders of the Company’s preferred stock shall be entitled to vote for the election of a total of two additional directors of the Company, at a special meeting or at the next annual meeting of stockholders and at each subsequent annual meeting of the stockholders until full cumulative distributions for all past unpaid periods are paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in cash is set aside. In addition, the Company may not make distributions with respect to any shares of its common stock, unless and until full cumulative distributions on the preferred stock for all past unpaid periods are paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in cash is set aside.

The Company announced that it was deferring payment of Sotherly’s previously announced dividends for the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and Series D Preferred Stock for the period ending March 31, 2020 and payment of Sotherly’s dividends for the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, and Series D Preferred Stock for the period ending June 30, 2020. The relevant distributions were as follows:

The total arrearage of unpaid cash dividend due on each of the Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock through August 10, 2020 is $1,610,000, $1,530,320 and $1,237,500, respectively.

As of the date of filing, we failed to make principal or interest payments under the mortgage secured by our DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hollywood Beach (the “Hollywood Mortgage”) which constituted an Event of Default. Pursuant to the terms of the Hollywood Mortgage loan agreement, such Event of Default may cause an increase in the interest rate on the outstanding loan balance for the period such Event of Default persists. Following an Event of Default, our lender under the Hollywood Mortgage can elect to accelerate all principal and accrued interest payments that remain outstanding under the applicable mortgage loan and foreclose on the hotel property that is security for such loan. If the lender were to accelerate the payment of principal and interest, we would likely not have sufficient funds to pay that mortgage debt. We are actively negotiating terms of a proposed forbearance agreement and waiver for the Hollywood Mortgage similar to those we have obtained from lenders secured by our other hotel properties.

The principal amount on the Hollywood Mortgage is $55,878,089. The arrearage of unpaid scheduled principal and interest due on this loan through August 10, 2020 is $1,594,552.

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
