Its advisor, A10A, provides the Company with its day-to-day management services. The Company pays fees and reimburses certain expenses to A10A and ARG for these services. A10A has subcontracted its obligations to Apple Hospitality, which provides to the Company the advisory services contemplated under the A10A advisory agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) and Apple Hospitality receives the fees and expense reimbursements payable under the Advisory Agreement from the Company. The subcontract agreement has no impact on the Company’s Advisory Agreement with A10A. ARG Agreement The Company has a contract with ARG to acquire and dispose of real estate assets for the Company. A fee of 2% of the gross purchase price or gross sale price in addition to certain reimbursable expenses is paid to ARG for these services.

Total advisory fees incurred by the Company under the Advisory Agreement are included in general and administrative expenses and totaled approximately $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in the first three months of 2016 was primarily due to the Company reaching the top fee tier under its advisory agreement in the second quarter of 2015 due to improved results of operations. Advisors Cost Sharing Structure In addition to the fees payable to ARG and A10A, the Company reimbursed to ARG or A10A, or paid directly to Apple Hospitality on behalf of ARG or A10A, approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

As part of the cost sharing arrangements, certain day-to-day transactions may result in amounts due to or from Apple Hospitality. To efficiently manage cash disbursements, the Company, Apple Hospitality, ARG or A10A may make payments for any or all of the related companies. Under the cash management process, each of the companies may advance or defer up to $1 million at any time. Each month, any outstanding amounts are settled among the affected companies. This process allows each company to minimize its cash on hand, which, in turn, reduces the cost of each company’s credit facility. The amounts outstanding at any point in time are not significant to any of the companies.
