On January 2, 2007, Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. (the Company or Apple) issued a press release, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference, announcing that it had entered into a letter of intent with ING Clarion Partners (ING). The letter provides ING with an exclusivity period until February 2, 2007 during which the companies will negotiate to enter into a purchase contract for the sale of the Company. During the exclusivity period, the Company has agreed not to negotiate with any other party regarding the sale of the Company. A contract, if any, would be subject to shareholder approval and an inspection period during which ING could review all of the Company’s books and records and negotiate with the Company’s third party property managers and franchisors regarding the associated management and franchise agreements. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company and ING will enter into a merger agreement or that a sale will occur.
