NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.    ORGANIZATION

Lodging Fund REIT III, Inc. (“LF REIT III”), was formed on April 9, 2018 as a Maryland corporation. LF REIT III, together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), was formed for the principal purpose of acquiring, through purchase or contribution, direct or indirect ownership interests in a diverse portfolio of limited-service, select-service and extended stay hotel properties located primarily in “America’s Heartland,” which the Company defines as the geographic area from North Dakota to Texas and the Appalachian Mountains to the Rocky Mountains. LF REIT III has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2018. The Company’s business activities are directed and managed by Legendary Capital REIT III, LLC (the “Advisor”) and its affiliates, which are related parties through common management, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”), dated June 1, 2018. The Company has no foreign operations or assets and its operating structure includes only one operating and reportable segment.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by, and substantially all of its operations are conducted through, Lodging Fund REIT III OP, LP (the “Operating Partnership,” or “OP”), a subsidiary of LF REIT III. The OP has three voting classes of partnership units, Common General Partnership Units (“GP Units”), Interval Units and Common Limited Partnership Units (“Common LP Units”), and three classes of non-voting partnership units, Series B Limited Partnership Units (“Series B LP Units”), Series Growth & Opportunity (“GO”) Limited Partnership Units (“Series GO LP Units”), and Series T Limited Partnership Units (“Series T LP Units”). LF REIT III was the sole general partner of the OP, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no outstanding Common LP Units, Interval Units, Series GO LP Units, or Series T LP Units, and there were 1,000 outstanding Series B LP Units, all of which were owned by the Advisor.

On June 1, 2018, the Company commenced a private offering of shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, with a maximum offering of $100,000,000 (the “Offering”) to accredited investors only, pursuant to a confidential private placement memorandum exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In addition to sales of common shares for cash, the Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), which permits stockholders to reinvest their distributions back into the Company. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had issued and sold 7,194,494 shares of common stock, including 133,331 shares attributable to the DRIP, and received aggregate proceeds of $70.8 million.

On April 29, 2020, the Company classified and designated 7,000,000 shares of authorized but unissued common stock, $0.01 par value per share, as shares of “Interval Common Stock,” to be part of the Offering. The offering of the Interval Common Stock, is a maximum offering of $30,000,000, which may be increased to $60,000,000 in the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors, (the “Interval Share Offering”) to accredited investors only, pursuant to a confidential private placement memorandum exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had not issued or sold any shares of Interval Common Stock.

On June 15, 2020, the Operating Partnership commenced a private offering of limited partnership units in the OP, designated as Series GO LP Units, with a maximum offering of $20,000,000, which may be increased to $30,000,000 in the sole discretion of the General Partner, (the “GO Unit Offering”) to accredited investors only, pursuant to a confidential private placement memorandum exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had not issued or sold any Series GO Units.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting

7

principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. The financial statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, and which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair and consistent presentation of the results for such periods. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LF REIT III, the OP and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. For the controlled subsidiaries that are not wholly-owned, the interests owned by an entity other than the Company represent a noncontrolling interest, which is presented separately in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has no foreign operations or assets and its operating structure includes only one reportable Segment. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and the amounts of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

During the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, which has spread to over 200 countries and territories, including the United States, and has spread to every state in the United States. The World Health Organization has designated COVID-19 as a pandemic, and numerous countries, including the United States, have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19. The impact of the outbreak on the U.S. and world economies has been evolving, and as cases of COVID-19 have continued to be identified in additional countries, there have been international mandates, and mandates in the United States from federal, state and local authorities, instituting quarantines and stay-at-home orders, closing schools, and instituting restrictions on travel and/or limiting operations of non-essential offices and retail centers. Such actions are adversely impacting many industries, with the travel and hospitality industries being particularly adversely affected. Although our hotel properties have remained open through the pandemic in 2020, our occupancy levels have been lower than historical levels. The outbreak could have a continued adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying the Company’s consolidated financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of June 30, 2020, however uncertainty over the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the global economy generally, and the Company’s business in particular, makes any estimates and assumptions as of June 30, 2020 inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19.

Revenue Recognition—Revenues consist of amounts derived from hotel operations, including room sales and other hotel revenues, and are presented on a disaggregated basis in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. These revenues are recorded net of any sales and occupancy taxes collected from the hotel guests. All revenues are recorded on an accrual basis as they are earned. Any cash received prior to a guest’s arrival is recorded as an advance deposit from the guest and recognized as revenue at the time of the guest’s occupancy at the hotel property.

Investment in Hotel Properties—The Company evaluates whether each hotel property acquisition should be accounted for as an asset acquisition or a business combination. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, then the transaction is considered to be an asset acquisition. All of the Company’s acquisitions since inception have been determined to be asset acquisitions. Transaction costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized and transaction costs associated with business combinations would be expensed as incurred.

The Company’s acquisitions generally consist of land, land improvements, buildings, building improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment (“FF&E”). The Company may also acquire intangible assets or liabilities related to

8

in-place leases, management agreements, debt, and advanced bookings. For transactions determined to be asset acquisitions, the Company allocates the purchase price among the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis at the date of acquisition. The Company determines the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the assistance of third-party valuation specialists, using cash flow analysis as well as available market and cost data. The determination of fair value includes making numerous estimates and assumptions.

The difference between the fair value and the face value of debt assumed in connection with an acquisition is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt assumed. The valuation of assumed debt liabilities is based on our estimate of the current market rates for similar liabilities in effect at the acquisition date.

The Company’s investments in hotel properties are carried at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 15 years for land improvements, 15 years for building improvements, 40 years for buildings and three to seven years for FF&E. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed in the period incurred and major renewals or improvements to the hotel properties are capitalized. Interest incurred in connection with the financing of real estate under development or renovation is capitalized as an additional cost of development. The Company discontinues the capitalization of interest once the real estate development or renovation project is substantially complete.

The Company assesses the carrying value of its hotel properties whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the property to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of the property, which take into account current market conditions and the Company’s intent with respect to holding or disposing of the hotel properties. If the Company’s analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, the Company will recognize an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including internally developed discounted cash flow models, comparable market transactions or third-party appraisals.

The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with a market participant’s future expectations for the industry and the economy in general and the Company’s expected use of the underlying hotel properties. The assumptions and estimates related to the future cash flows and the capitalization rates are complex and subjective in nature. Changes in economic and operating conditions, including those occurring as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, that occur subsequent to a current impairment analysis and the Company’s ultimate use of the hotel property could impact the assumptions and result in future impairment losses to the hotel properties.

Non-controlling Interests—Non-controlling interests represent the portion of equity in a subsidiary held by owners other than the Company. Non-controlling interests are reported in the consolidated balance sheets within equity, separate from stockholders’ equity. Revenue and expenses attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are reported in the consolidated statements of operations, with net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests reported separately from net income or loss attributable to the Company.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash in bank accounts as well as highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company deposits cash with several high-quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to an insurance limit of $250,000. At times, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents may exceed federally insured levels.

Restricted Cash—Restricted cash consists of earnest money deposits related to hotel property acquisitions, as well as certain funds maintained in escrow accounts to fund future payments for insurance, property tax obligations, and reserves for future capital expenditures, as required by our debt agreements. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31,

9

2019, restricted cash on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet included $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of earnest money deposits.

Accounts Receivable—Accounts receivable consist primarily of receivables due from hotel guests for room stays and meeting and banquet room rentals, which are uncollateralized customer obligations. Management determines the likelihood of collectability of receivables on an individual customer basis, based on the amount of time the balance has been outstanding, likelihood of collecting, and the customer’s current economic status.

Deferred Financing Costs—Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, origination fees, legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining financing. Deferred financing costs are presented on the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. The Company expenses unamortized deferred financing costs when the associated financing agreement is refinanced or repaid before maturity unless certain criteria are met that would allow for the carryover of such costs to the refinanced agreement. Costs incurred in connection with potential financial transactions that are not completed are expensed in the period in which it is determined the financing will not be completed.

Offering Costs—The Company has incurred certain costs related directly to the Company’s equity offerings consisting of, among other costs, commissions, legal, due diligence costs, printing, marketing, filing fees, postage, data processing fees, and other offering related costs. These costs are capitalized and recorded as a reduction of equity proceeds on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Property Operations Expenses—Property operations expenses consist of expenses related to room rental, food and beverage sales, telephone usage, and other miscellaneous service costs, as well as all costs of operating the Company’s hotel properties such as building repairs, maintenance, property taxes, utilities, and other related costs.

Property Management Fees—Property management fees include expenses incurred for management services provided for the day-to-day operations of our hotel properties, which are charged at a rate of 3-4% of gross revenues. Property management fees also include asset management fees, which may be charged at an annual rate of up to 0.75% of gross assets and are paid to the Advisor.

Franchise Fees—The Company pays initial fees related to hotel franchise rights prior to acquiring a hotel property. The fees are included in prepaid expenses and other assets until the time the related hotel property is acquired. Initial franchise fees related to hotel properties that are acquired are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement. Initial franchise fees related to hotel properties that are not acquired are refunded to the Company, net of any associated fees, and any fees are expensed as incurred. Franchise fees on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations include the amortization of initial franchise fees, as well as monthly fees paid to franchisors for royalty, marketing, and reservation fees and other related costs.

Acquisition Costs—The Company incurs costs during the review of potential hotel property acquisitions including legal fees, environmental reviews, market studies, financial advisory services, and other professional service fees. If the Company does complete a property acquisition, an acquisition fee of up to 1.4% is charged by the Advisor, based on the purchase price of the property plus any estimated property improvement plan (“PIP”) costs. For transactions determined to be asset acquisitions, these costs are capitalized as part of the overall cost of the project if the property is ultimately acquired. For transactions determined to be business combinations, these costs would be expensed in the period incurred. Acquisition-related and acquisition due diligence costs that relate to a property that is not acquired, are expensed and included in acquisition costs on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Prior to the ultimate determination of whether a property will be acquired or not, acquisition-related and acquisition due diligence costs are recorded as, and included in, prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock—Basic net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is calculated after giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding for the period. Basic and diluted net loss per common share were the same for the periods presented.

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. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain, to stockholders. The Company’s intention is to adhere to the REIT qualification requirements and to maintain its qualification for taxation as a REIT.

As a REIT, the Company is generally not subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on the portion of taxable income that is distributed to stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and it may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. As a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on undistributed taxable income. Taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes at the applicable rates.

The TRS accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax basis, and for net operating loss, capital loss and tax credit carryforwards. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted income tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. The effect on the deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period when the new rate is enacted. However, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be realized based on consideration of all available evidence, including the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, future projected taxable income and tax planning strategies. Valuation allowances are provided if, based upon the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company performs periodic reviews for any uncertain tax positions and, if necessary, will record the expected future tax consequences of uncertain tax positions in the consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurement—The Company establishes fair value measures based on the fair value definition and hierarchy levels established by GAAP. These fair values are based on a three-tiered fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

Level 2—Directly or indirectly observable inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require a reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s estimates of fair value were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The Company classifies assets and liabilities in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Reclassifications—Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on previously reported net income or stockholders’ equity.

11

Recent Accounting Pronouncements—The Company, as an emerging growth company, has elected to use the extended transition period which allows us to defer the adoption of new or revised accounting standards. This allows the Company to adopt new or revised accounting standards as of the effective date for non-public business entities.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the new standard is that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. We adopted ASU 2014-09 as of January 1, 2019. There have not been, nor do we anticipate, any reclassifications or significant impacts on our consolidated financial statements as a result of this adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU No. 2016-02”) (Topic 842), 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). ASU No. 2016-02 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 of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. 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. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-02 for the year ending December 31, 2021. We do not anticipate any reclassifications or significant impacts on our consolidated financial statements as a result of this adoption.

The seller of the Pineville Property, may be entitled to additional cash consideration if the property exceeds certain performance criteria based on increases in the property’s net operating income (“NOI”) for a selected 12-month period of time. At any time during the period beginning April 1, 2021 through the date of the final NOI determination (on or about April 30, 2023), the seller of the property may make a one-time election to receive the additional consideration. The variable amount of the additional consideration, if any, is based on the excess of the property’s actual NOI over a base NOI for the applicable 12-month calculation period divided by the stated cap rate for such calculation period. Further, if the Company sells the Pineville Property or terminates the Beacon sub-management agreement without cause prior to March 31, 2021, the Company will be required to pay liquidated damages of at least $1.0 million unless the seller elects to receive the additional consideration described above. As of June 30, 2020, no amounts were paid to the seller of the Pineville Property, and no election to receive the additional consideration had been made.

As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the interest rate was 5.00% and 5.75%, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, there was an outstanding balance of $1.2 million on the line of credit. There was no outstanding balance on the line of credit as of December 31, 2019. The line of credit requires monthly payments of interest only, with all principal due at maturity on November 22, 2020. The line of credit is partially guaranteed by each of Corey Maple and Norman Leslie, as the members of the Advisor, each in the amount of $1.2 million.

On February 10, 2020, the Company entered into a $5.0 million revolving line of credit. The line of credit requires monthly payments of interest only, with all outstanding principal amounts being due and payable at maturity on February 10, 2021.

The line of credit is secured by the Company’s Cedar Rapids Property and Eagan Property, which are also subject to term loans with the same lender, and 100,000 limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The line of credit includes cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions such that the existing mortgage loan agreements with respect to the Cedar Rapids Property and the Eagan Property, as well as future loan agreements that the Company may enter into with this lender, are cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with each other. The line of credit, including all cross-collateralized debt, is guaranteed by Corey Maple, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. As of June 30, 2020, there was no outstanding balance on the line of credit.

14

On November 15, 2018, the Company entered into a $25.0 million revolving line of credit to provide immediate funds to acquire hotel properties. The facility had a variable interest rate equal to 30-day LIBOR, plus 3.25% and an initial term of 12 months. Each advance made under the facility was secured by a hotel property, required monthly payments of interest for the first three months following the advance, and monthly payments of principal and interest thereafter. The Company drew $5.2 million on the line of credit in connection with the purchase of the Cedar Rapids Property, which was repaid in full in March 2019 when the Cedar Rapids property was refinanced. The line of credit was closed in September 2019.

Mortgage Debt

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $64.8 million in outstanding mortgage debt secured by seven properties, with maturity dates ranging from June 2024 to April 2029, with fixed interest rates ranging from 3.70% to 5.33%, and a weighted-average interest rate of 4.54%. The loans generally require monthly payments of principal and interest on an amortized basis, with certain loans allowing for an interest-only period up to 12 months following origination, and generally require a balloon payment due at maturity. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, certain mortgage debt was guaranteed by the members of the Advisor. The Company was in compliance with all required debt covenants as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Forbearance Agreements and Loan Amendments

On April 17, 2020, the Company entered into a Change In Terms Agreement (the “Cedar Rapids Amendment”), amending the terms of the its original Promissory Note (the “Cedar Rapids Note”), dated March 5, 2019 in the original principal amount of $5.86 million. Pursuant to the Cedar Rapids Amendment, the maturity date of the Cedar Rapids Note was extended from March 1, 2024, to September 1, 2024, the requirement to make any replacement reserve deposits was waived until March 1, 2021, and the requirement to make any payments of principal and interest was deferred until October 1, 2020.

In addition to the Eagan Amendment, the lender has also waived the required financial covenants under the terms of the Eagan Note through December 31, 2020.

On April 22, 2020, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Prattville Forbearance Agreement”), effective May 1, 2020, amending the terms of its original loan agreement (the “Prattville Loan”), dated July 11, 2019, in the original principal amount of $9.6 million. Pursuant to the Prattville Forbearance Agreement, the Company did not make interest payments that were due and payable during the Prattville Forbearance Period (as defined below) which constituted events of default under the terms of the Prattville Loan (collectively, the “Prattville Projected Events of Default”).  However, during the Prattville Forbearance Period, the lender agreed to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under the Prattville Loan and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Prattville Loan) to the extent such rights and remedies arise as a result of the Prattville Projected Events of Default. The lender further agreed to defer the interest accrued during the Prattville Forbearance Period such that the accrued interest of $100,878 was paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the loan. The forbearance period (the “Prattville Forbearance Period”) was the period from May 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020.

On August 14, 2020, the Prattville Loan was amended (the “Prattville Amendment”) to waive the Prattville Projected Events of Default and to adjust other terms of the Prattville Loan. The Prattville Amendment, among other things, extended the required PIP completion date to align with the extension provided by the franchise agreement, adjusted certain financial covenants, put into place certain liquidity requirements and added restrictions

15

on capital expenditures, related party payments, including management fees payable to NHS and loan guarantee fees, and cash distributions until certain financial covenants are achieved. Pursuant to the Prattville Forbearance Agreement and Prattville Amendment, until certain financial covenants are achieved, the borrower may not make any payments for capital expenditures or any distributions and must maintain a minimum cash balance of $155,000 in its hotel operating account. The restriction on distributions precludes the borrower subsidiary entities from making distributions of cash to the Operating Partnership, and as of June 30, 2020, the borrower subsidiary entities had cash in the amount of $525,940, which is included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

On April 22, 2020, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Southaven Forbearance Agreement”), effective May 1, 2020, amending the terms of its original loan agreement (the “Southaven Loan”), dated February 21, 2020, in the original principal amount of $13.5 million. Pursuant to the Southaven Forbearance Agreement, the Company did not make interest payments that were due and payable during the Southaven Forbearance Period (as defined below) which constituted events of default under the terms of the Southaven Loan (collectively, the “Southaven Projected Events of Default”).  However, during the Southaven Forbearance Period, the lender agreed to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under the Southaven Loan and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Southaven Loan) to the extent such rights and remedies arise as a result of the Southaven Projected Events of Default. The lender further agreed to defer the interest accrued during the Southaven Forbearance Period such that the accrued interest of $126,110 was paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the loan. The forbearance period (the “Southaven Forbearance Period”) was the period from May 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020.

On August 14, 2020, the Southaven Loan was amended (the “Southaven Amendment”) to waive the Southaven Projected Events of Default and to adjust other terms of the Southaven Loan. The Southaven Amendment, among other things, extended the required PIP completion date to align with the extension provided by the franchise agreement, adjusted certain financial covenants, put into place certain liquidity requirements and added restrictions on capital expenditures, related party payments, including loan guarantee fees, and cash distributions until certain financial covenants are achieved. Pursuant to the Southaven Forbearance Agreement and Southaven Amendment, until certain financial covenants are achieved, the borrower may not make any payments for capital expenditures or any distributions and must maintain a minimum cash balance of $225,000 in its hotel operating account. The restriction on distributions precludes the borrower subsidiary entities from making distributions of cash to the Operating Partnership, and as of June 30, 2020, the borrower subsidiary entities had cash in the amount of $634,341, which is included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loans

In April 2020, the Company entered into six unsecured promissory notes under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), totaling $763,100. The PPP was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was passed in March 2020, and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The term of each PPP loan is two years. The interest rate on each PPP loan is 1.0% per annum, which shall be deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. After the initial six-month deferral period, each loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest until maturity with respect to any portion of such PPP loan which is not forgiven as described below.  The Company is permitted to prepay each PPP loan at any time with no prepayment penalties.   Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for, and be granted, forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations and ongoing rulemaking by the SBA, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance of the PPP Loans was $763,100, and the Company had not applied for any forgiveness, but intends to do so.

5.    FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, lines of credit, PPP loans, and mortgage debt. With the exception of the Company’s mortgage debt, the carrying amounts of the financial instruments presented in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair value as of June 30, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s mortgage debt was estimated by discounting each loan’s future cash flows over the remaining term of the mortgage using current borrowing rates for debt instruments with similar terms and maturities, which are Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2020, the estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgage debt was $67.6 million, compared to the gross carrying value $64.8 million. As of December 31, 2019, the estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgage debt was $42.7 million, compared to the gross carrying value $41.7 million.

6.    INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily because the Company’s earnings (losses), other than those generated by the Company’s TRS, are not generally subject to federal corporate and state income taxes due to the Company’s REIT election and the recording of a partial valuation allowance on the Company’s TRS net deferred tax assets. The Company did not pay any federal and state income taxes for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

The Company’s TRS generated a net operating loss (“NOL”) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a partial valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets of $1.1 million, primarily related to the uncertainty of effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on the hospitality and travel industries. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had recorded net deferred tax assets of $461,855, primarily attributable to its NOLs generated in the current period and prior periods, net of temporary differences primarily related to depreciation and a valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had recorded net deferred tax assets of $205,808, primarily attributable to its NOLs generated in the current period and prior periods, net of temporary differences primarily related to depreciation. The Company’s NOLs will expire in 2038-2039 for state tax purposes and will not expire for federal tax purposes. As of June 30, 2020, the tax years 2018 and 2019 remain subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and various state tax jurisdictions.

The CARES Act contains numerous income tax provisions, such as temporarily relaxing limitations on the deductibility of interest expense, accelerating depreciable lives of certain qualified building improvements, and allowing for NOL’s arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021 to be carried back to each of the preceding 5-year periods. In addition, for tax years beginning prior to 2021, the CARES Act removed the 80% absorption limitation previously enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The income tax aspects of the CARES Act are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

9.    STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company is authorized to issue 900,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Generally, each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote per share for on all matters upon which stockholders are entitled to vote and to receive distributions as authorized by the Company’s board of directors. The Interval Common Stock described below do not have voting rights. The rights of the holders of shares of preferred stock may be defined at such time any series of preferred shares are issued.

On April 29, 2020, the Company filed with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation articles supplementary (the “Articles Supplementary”) to the Company’s charter, to classify and designate 7,000,000 shares of authorized but unissued common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company, as non-voting shares of Interval Common Stock and to set the terms of the Interval Common Stock.

Common Stock

Initial Offering

On June 1, 2018, the Company commenced a private offering of shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a price of $10.00 per share, with a maximum offering of $100,000,000, to accredited investors only pursuant to a confidential private placement memorandum exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), which permits stockholders to reinvest their distributions back into the Company, purchasing shares of common stock at 95% of the then-current share net asset value (“NAV”).

Distributions

Distributions are determined by the board of directors based on the Company’s financial condition and other relevant factors. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the board of directors declared a cash distribution at a daily rate of $0.00191781 per share of common stock to the stockholders of record on each calendar day within the quarter. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the board of directors declared a distribution, payable to each stockholder in shares of common stock issued through the DRIP, or at the election of the stockholder, in shares of common stock valued at $10.00 per share, at a daily rate of $0.00191781 per share of common stock to the stockholders of record on each calendar day within the quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the board

22

of directors declared a cash distribution at a daily rate of $0.00191781 per share of common stock to the stockholders of record on each calendar day within each respective quarter.

Share Repurchase Plan

The board of directors has adopted a share repurchase plan that may enable its stockholders to have their shares repurchased in limited circumstances. In its sole discretion, the board of directors could choose to terminate or suspend the plan or to amend its provisions without stockholder approval. The repurchase plan may be reviewed and modified by the board of directors as it deems necessary in its sole discretion. The price at which the Company will repurchase shares is dependent on the amount of time the holder has owned the shares, and the then current value of the shares. There are several limitations on the Company’s ability to repurchase shares under the share repurchase plan, including, but not limited to, a limitation that during any calendar year, the maximum number of shares potentially eligible for repurchase can only be the number of shares that the Company could purchase with the amount of net proceeds from the sale of shares under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. The board of directors may, in its sole discretion, reject any request for repurchase and may, at any time and without stockholder approval, upon 10 business days’ written notice to the stockholders (i) amend, suspend or terminate its share repurchase plan and (ii) increase or decrease the funding available for the repurchase of shares pursuant to our share repurchase plan. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $707,133 and $49,530, respectively, available for eligible repurchases.

Interval Common Stock

Distributions

Holders of shares of Interval Common Stock will be entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the board of directors of the Company and declared by the Company, distributions at a rate equal to 86% of the distribution rate for the Company’s common stock as authorized by the board of directors and declared by the Company. Distributions on the Interval Shares may be paid in cash, capital stock of the Company or a combination of cash and capital stock of the Company as determined by the board of directors, and will be paid at such times as distributions are paid to the holders of common stock.

Repurchase Plan

The board of directors has adopted a repurchase plan for the Interval Common Stock (the “Repurchase Plan”). The Repurchase Plan is generally available to holders of Interval Common Stock who have held their shares of Interval Common Stock (“Interval Shares”) for at least 1 year. The Repurchase Plan provides that so long as the Repurchase Reserve (defined below) exists, the Company will repurchase up to the lesser of (i) 5% of the aggregate value of the Interval Shares (“Interval Shares Value”) on the last day of the same calendar quarter of the preceding year and (ii) 5% of the Interval Shares Value on the last day of the preceding calendar quarter. After the Repurchase Reserve has been exhausted, the Company will limit repurchases of Interval Shares to repurchases that can be made with the net proceeds from the dividend reinvestment plan for the Interval Shares received in the prior calendar year up to the lesser of (i) 1.25% per calendar quarter and (ii) 5% per calendar year of the Interval Shares Value. The limitations described in this paragraph are referred to as the “Repurchase Limitations.”

The Company will establish a reserve (the “Repurchase Reserve”) of liquid assets in an amount equal to 20% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the Company’s private offering of Interval Shares, which will be comprised of cash and cash-like instruments, government securities, publicly traded REIT shares and other publicly traded securities (the “Reserve Assets”), but which is expected to primarily include publicly traded REIT shares. The Repurchase Reserve will be used solely to repurchase the Interval Shares. The board of directors may, but has no obligation to, increase the amount of the Repurchase Reserve at any time. The Company will have no obligation to restore any amounts resulting from a decline in value of the Reserve Assets. After the Repurchase Reserve has been exhausted, subject to the Repurchase Limitations, the Company will use only the net proceeds from the dividend reinvestment plan received in the prior calendar year to repurchase the Interval Shares. Subject to the Repurchase Limitations, on

23

the applicable repurchase date, the Company will repurchase the Interval Shares timely submitted for repurchase for a price equal to the NAV per share of the Company’s common stock on such repurchase date as determined by the board of directors.

The board of directors may, upon 10 days’ written notice to the holders of Interval Shares, amend, suspend or terminate the Repurchase Plan at any time, and such amendment, suspension or termination may be implemented immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repurchase Plan may not be terminated prior to the date the Repurchase Reserve is exhausted.

Interval Share Offering

The Company is offering up to 3,000,000 shares of Interval Common Stock in the Company’s ongoing private offering, which amount may be increased to up to 6,000,000 Interval Shares in the sole discretion of the board of directors. Except as otherwise provided in the offering memorandum, the initial purchase price for the Interval Shares is $10.00 per Interval Share, with Interval Shares purchased in the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan at an initial price of $9.50 per Interval Share. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had not issued or sold any shares of Interval Common Stock.

10.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Impact of COVID-19 — As further discussed in Note 2, the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. and world economies generally, and the Company’s business in particular, is uncertain. As of June 30, 2020, no contingencies have been recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as a result of COVID-19, however as the global pandemic continues, it may have long-term impacts on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Refer to Note 2 for further discussion of COVID-19.

Legal Matters—From time to time, the Company may become party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management is not aware of any legal proceedings of which the outcome is probable or reasonably possible to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, which would require accrual or disclosure of the contingency and possible range of loss.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Termination of Purchase and Sale Agreement

As previously disclosed, on February 17, 2020, the due diligence period expired under the Agreement of Purchase and Sale among Central PA Equities 17, LLC, Central PA Equities 19, LLC, and Springwood – FHP LP (collectively, the “Seller”) and the Operating Partnership (the “Buyer”) (each, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), dated as of November 22, 2019 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer agreed to acquire the 108-room Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott hotel in Hershey, Pennsylvania, the 107-room Home2 Suites by Hilton hotel in York, Pennsylvania, and the 100-room Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton hotel in York, Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Hotel Properties”) from the Seller for the purchase price of approximately $46.9 million plus closing costs, subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Agreement. As required by the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer had deposited a total of $1.5 million into escrow as earnest money pending the closing or termination of the Purchase Agreement (the “Earnest Money Deposit”).

Beginning on July 31, 2020, the Parties exchanged written notices of default with one another in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The notice from each Party was based on allegations that the other Party failed to perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement provides each Party thirty (30) days from the date of such notice (the “Termination Date”) to cure its defaults. If such defaults are not cured by the Termination Date, the Purchase Agreement shall terminate, and the Seller and the Buyer must determine how to dispose of the Earnest Money Deposit.

24

The Buyer and Seller are currently in discussions regarding potential modifications to the timing and terms of the acquisitions of the Hotel Properties. There can be no assurance that the parties will reach any such agreement prior to the Termination Date. If the Parties are unable to reach an agreement prior to the Termination Date, the Purchase Agreement will terminate on the Termination Date and resolution on how to dispose of the Earnest Money Deposit will be required.

Distributions Paid

On July 24, 2020, the Company paid distributions of $0.4 million, declared for daily record dates for each day in the period from March 1, 2020, through March 31, 2020, which included $0.2 million of distributions paid pursuant to the DRIP.

On July 31, 2020, the Company issued $1.2 million in shares of common stock, consisting of 131,267 shares of common stock, as a stock distribution declared for daily record dates in the period from April 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020. All of such shares were issued through the DRIP.

Amendments to Loan Agreements

See Note 4. “Debt” for a description of amendments to several of our mortgage loan agreements entered into after June 30, 2020.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

As used herein, the terms “we,” “our,” “us” and “the Company” refer to Lodging Fund REIT III, Inc., a Maryland corporation, Lodging Fund REIT III OP, LP a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as the “Operating Partnership,” Lodging Fund REIT III TRS, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which we refer to as the “Master TRS” and their subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “could,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “believe,” “potential,” “continue,” “seek” or similar expressions. These statements include our plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to future growth and availability of funds, and are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to these statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to accurately predict and many of which are beyond our control. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.

The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:

● The COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken by government authorities to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or to treat its impact, including restrictions on travel, imposition of quarantines, stay-at-home orders and restrictions on businesses, have had a negative impact on the U.S. and world economies and business activities. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our results of operations,returnsandprofitability, as well as our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders or to realize appreciation in the value of our properties, will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the severity and duration of the pandemic, actions taken to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or to mitigate its impact and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others;

● Adverse economic, business or real estate developments in our markets may adversely affect our financial performance and the value of our properties and may limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders;

● We intend to acquire only hotel properties. As a result, we will only have limited diversification as to the type of property we own. In the event of an economic recession affecting the economies of the areas in which the properties are located or a decline in values in general, our financial performance could be materially and adversely affected, which may limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders;

● If we are unable to raise substantial funds in our Offering, we may not be able to acquire a large portfolio of assets, which may cause the value of an investment in us to vary more widely with the performance of certain investments and cause our general and administrative expenses to constitute a greater percentage of our revenue;

● We have incurred significant debt in connection with our property acquisitions. Our use of leverage increases the risk of an investment in us. Our mortgage loans are collateralized by our hotel properties, which puts those properties at risk of forfeiture if we are unable to repay such debts, refinance or extend maturing mortgage loans, or if we breach any covenants in such loan documents and do not obtain a waiver from the applicable

26

lenders. Principal and interest payments on these loans reduce the amount of money that would otherwise be available for distribution to our stockholders;

● Our ability to acquire, rehabilitate, renovate and manage our properties may be limited if we cannot obtain satisfactory financing, which will depend on debt and capital markets conditions. In addition, if any of the loans we obtain have variable interest rates, volatility in these markets could negatively impact such loans. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all;

● Demand for our properties may be affected by various factors, including an over-supply or over-building of hotel properties in our properties’ markets and general economic conditions. If demand does not increase or if demand weakens, our occupancy or revenues per available room may decline, making it more difficult for us to implement our business strategy and to meet any debt service obligations we have incurred and limiting our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders;

● We have a limited operating history and may not be successful at operating a real estate investment trust, or REIT, which may adversely affect our ability to make distributions to our stockholders;

● Our advisor, Legendary Capital REIT III, LLC (the “Advisor”), its executive officers and other key personnel, the employees of Legendary Capital, LLC, an affiliate of the Advisor (the “Sponsor”) as well as certain of our officers and directors, whose services are essential to the Company, may be involved in other business ventures, and will face a conflict in allocating their time and other resources between us and the other activities in which they are or may become involved. Failure of the Advisor, its executive officers and key personnel, the employees of the Sponsor, and our officers and directors to devote sufficient time or resources to our operations could result in reduced returns to our stockholders;

● We will pay certain prescribed fees and expenses to the Advisor and its affiliates regardless of the quality of services provided. These fees were not negotiated at arm’s length and therefore may be higher than fees payable to unaffiliated third parties;

● We have paid cash distributions from proceeds from our ongoing private offering described below (the “Offering”). To the extent the Board declares future distributions, we may continue to fund some of such distributions with Offering proceeds. We have not established a limit on the amount of proceeds from our Offering that we may use to fund distributions. To the extent we fund distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, we will have less funds available for investment and the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced. We may fund distributions from other sources such as borrowings, which may constitute a return of capital; and

● Failure to qualify as a REIT would reduce our net earnings available for investment or distribution to our stockholders.

All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, each as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Overview

We were formed on April 9, 2018 as a Maryland corporation for the primary purpose of acquiring a diversified portfolio of hotel properties (the “Projects”) located primarily in America’s Heartland, which we define as the geographic area from North Dakota to Texas and the Appalachian Mountains to the Rocky Mountains. On an infrequent and opportunistic basis, we may also originate or acquire high-yield loans secured directly or indirectly by real estate-related assets, which loans will be made to certain qualified third-party borrowers and/or affiliates of our advisor (the “Loans”). We elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2018. We conduct substantially all of our business and own substantially all real estate investments

27

through the Operating Partnership. We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. We and the Operating Partnership are advised by the Advisor pursuant to an agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) under which the Advisor performs advisory services regarding acquisition, financing and disposition of the Projects and origination of the Loans, is responsible for managing, operating and maintaining the Projects and day-to-day management of the Company. The Advisor may, in its sole discretion, perform these duties through one or more affiliates. We have engaged NHS, LLC dba National Hospitality Services (‘‘NHS’’) to manage several of the Projects acquired to date; however, we can and may engage third party property management companies. The Pineville Property is currently being managed on a day-to-day basis by Beacon, an affiliate of the seller of the Pineville Property, pursuant to a sub-management agreement. NHS is wholly-owned by Norman Leslie, a director and executive officer of the Company and a principal of the Advisor. The Advisor has no direct employees. The employees of the Sponsor, an affiliate of the Advisor, provide services to the Company related to the negotiations of property acquisitions and financing, asset management, accounting, investor relations, and all other administrative services.

On June 1, 2018, we commenced an offering (the “Offering”) of up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock under a private placement to qualified purchasers who meet the definition of “accredited investors,” as provided in Regulation D of the Securities Act. The Offering will continue until the earlier of (i) the date when the maximum offering amount is sold, (ii) May 31, 2021, which may be extended by our board of directors in its sole discretion, or (iii) a decision by the Company to terminate the Offering. As of June 30, 2020, we had issued and sold 7,194,494 shares of common stock, including 133,331 shares attributable to our dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”), and received aggregate proceeds of $70.8 million. After deductions for payments of selling commissions, marketing and diligence allowances, other wholesale selling costs and expenses, and other offering expenses, we received net offering proceeds of approximately $58.6 million. The net offering proceeds have been used to fund property acquisitions. No public market exists for the shares of our common stock and none is expected to develop.

On April 29, 2020, we classified and designated 7,000,000 shares of authorized but unissued common stock, $0.01 par value per share, as shares of “Interval Common Stock,” to be part of the Offering. The offering of the Interval Common Stock, is a maximum offering of $30,000,000, which may be increased to $60,000,000 in the sole discretion of our board of directors, (the “Interval Share Offering”) to accredited investors only, pursuant to a confidential private placement memorandum exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of June 30, 2020, we had not issued or sold any shares of Interval Common Stock.

On June 15, 2020, the Operating Partnership commenced a private offering of limited partnership units in the OP, designated as Series GO LP Units, with a maximum offering of $20,000,000, which may be increased to $30,000,000 in our sole discretion as the General Partner of the Operating Partnership (the “GO Unit Offering”) to accredited investors only, pursuant to a confidential private placement memorandum exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of June 30, 2020, the Operating Partnership had not issued or sold any Series GO Units.

Market Outlook

The hospitality industry is closely related to the U.S. general economic cycle because business and leisure travelers are directly affected by economic conditions that drive demand. During the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, which has spread to over 200 countries and territories, including the United States, and has spread to every state in the United States. The World Health Organization has designated COVID-19 as a pandemic, and numerous countries, including the United States, have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19. The global impact of the outbreak continues to evolve, and as cases of COVID-19 have continued to be identified in additional countries, there have been international mandates and mandates in the United States from federal, state and local authorities instituting quarantines and stay-at-home orders, closing schools, and instituting restrictions on travel and/or limiting operations of non-essential offices and retail centers. Such actions are increasing rates of unemployment and adversely impacting many industries, with the travel and hospitality industries being particularly adversely affected. The hospitality industry is experiencing a sharp decline in travel demand due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related governmental restrictions instituted to slow the spread of the virus. While we have seen improving demand at some of our properties as states and cities across the United States have loosened stay-at-home restrictions, we expect any recovery to occur unevenly across our portfolio. Some of our

28

properties are located in states currently experiencing surges in new cases and hospitalizations, which have resulted, and may continue to result, in renewed government mandates and stay-at-home orders. All of the markets in which our properties are located are subject to some form of restrictions on business operations. As a result of these mandatory restrictions as well as voluntary shutdowns, self-quarantines or actual viral health issues, we initially experienced a substantial number of cancellations, and have experienced and continue to experience a reduction in bookings for hotel rooms. The outbreak could have a continued adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown.

The outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact on the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present uncertainty and risk with respect to our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and ability to pay distributions. We expect that these impacts are likely to continue to some extent as the outbreak persists and potentially even longer. The fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions, and, as a result, present material uncertainty and risk with respect to us and the performance of our investments. The full extent of the impact and effects of COVID-19 will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including, among other factors, the duration, severity and spread of the outbreak and potential for its recurrence, along with related travel advisories, quarantines and restrictions, the recovery time of the disrupted industries, the impact of labor market interruptions, the impact of government interventions, and uncertainty with respect to the duration of the global economic slowdown. In addition, if in the future there is a pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of another highly infectious or contagious disease or other health concern affecting states or regions in which we operate, we and our properties may be subject to similar risks and uncertainties as posed by COVID-19. For additional discussion with respect to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our liquidity and capital resources and results of operations, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources-Outlook” and “Results of Operations-Outlook” below.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We are dependent upon the net proceeds from our Offering to conduct our proposed operations. The Offering will continue until the earlier of (i) the date when the maximum offering amount is sold, (ii) May 31, 2021, which may be extended by our board of directors in its sole discretion, or (iii) a decision by the Company to terminate the Offering. We intend to obtain the capital required to make real estate and real estate-related investments and conduct our operations from the proceeds of our Offering, from secured or unsecured financings from banks and other lenders and from any undistributed funds from our operations. As of June 30, 2020, we had raised approximately $70.8 million in gross offering proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock in the Offering. The pace of capital raised in our Offering has slowed over the past several months compared to historical amounts since inception of the Offering. We cannot predict whether and when such Offering proceeds will return to pre-pandemic levels. If we are unable to raise substantial funds in the Offering, we will make fewer investments resulting in less diversification in terms of the type, number and size of investments we make and the value of an investment in us will fluctuate more significantly with the performance of the specific assets we acquire. There may be a delay between the sale of shares of our common stock and our purchase of assets, which could result in a delay in the benefits to our stockholders, if any, of returns generated from our investment operations. Further, we will have certain fixed operating expenses regardless of whether we are able to raise substantial funds in the Offering. Our inability to raise substantial funds would increase our fixed operating expenses as a percentage of gross income, reducing our net income and cash flow and limiting our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

As of June 30, 2020, we owned seven properties. We acquired these investments with the proceeds from the sale of our common stock in the Offering and debt financing. Operating cash needs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were met through cash flow generated by these real estate investments and with proceeds from our Offering.

Our investments in real estate generate cash flow in the form of hotel room rentals and guest expenditures, which are reduced by operating expenditures, debt service payments and corporate general and administrative expenses. Each of our current properties is owned and future properties will be owned by a direct special purpose entity subsidiary

29

of the Operating Partnership, which leases the properties to direct special purpose entity subsidiaries of the Master TRS, referred to as “TRS Lessees.” The TRS Lessees are or will be required to make rent payments to the owners of the properties pursuant to the lease agreements relating to each property. Such TRS Lessees’ ability to make rent payments to the owner subsidiaries and our liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders, are dependent upon the TRS Lessees ability to generate cash flow from the operations of the hotel properties. The TRS Lessees are dependent upon the management companies with whom they have entered or will enter into management agreements with to operate the hotel properties.

Cash flow from operations from real estate investments will be primarily dependent upon the occupancy level and average daily rate, or “ADR”, of our portfolio, and how well we manage our expenditures.

We anticipate that the aggregate loan-to-value ratio for the Company will be between 35% and 65%. We will target a loan-to-value ratio for the Projects of between 35% and 70%, based on the purchase price of the Projects, however, we may obtain financing that is less than or higher than such loan-to-value ratio for an individual Project at the discretion of the board of directors. Though this is our estimated leverage, our charter does not limit us from incurring debt in excess of this amount. As of June 30, 2020, our aggregate loan-to-value ratio, based on the aggregate purchase price of the Projects, was approximately 62%.

In addition to making investments in accordance with our investment objectives, we expect to use capital resources to make certain payments to the Advisor and its affiliates, NHS and One Rep. These payments include the various fees and reimbursements to be paid to the Advisor and its affiliates in connection with the selection, acquisition and management of Projects, as well as reimbursement of certain organization and other offering expenses described below. The Advisor earns a one-time acquisition fee of up to 1.4% of the hotel purchase price including funds allocated for any property improvement plan (“PIP”) at the time of each hotel property acquisition, a financing fee of up to 1.4% of the hotel purchase price including funds allocated for any PIP at the time of closing the initial financing, and an annual asset management fee of up to 0.75% of the gross assets of the Company, which is payable on a monthly basis. The Advisor will also be paid a refinancing fee of up to 0.75% of the principal amount of any refinancing at the time of closing the refinancing, and a disposition fee equal to between 0.0% and 4.0% of the hotel sales price, payable at the closing of the disposition, and real estate commissions of up to 3.0% of the hotel purchase price in connection with the sale of a hotel property in which the Advisor or its affiliates provided substantial services, but in no event greater than one-half of the total commissions paid with respect to such property if a commission is paid to a third-party as well as the Advisor, and in no event will total commissions exceed 5.0% of the hotel sales price. Certain affiliates of the Advisor may receive an annual guarantee fee equal to 1.0% of the guaranty, paid on a monthly basis, for debt obligations of the hotel properties personally guaranteed by such affiliates. The Advisor may earn an annual subordinated performance fee equal to 20% of the distributions after the common stockholders and Operating Partnership limited partners (other than the Series B Limited Partnership Unit (“Series B LP Unit”) holders) have received a 6% cumulative, but not compounded, return per annum. Per the terms of the Operating Partnership’s operating agreement, the Advisor receives distributions from the Operating Partnership in connection with their ownership of non-voting Series B LP Units. The Advisor’s ownership of Series B LP Units is presented as non-controlling interest on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The Advisor and its affiliates may be reimbursed by us for certain organization and offering expenses in connection with the Company’s securities offerings, including legal, printing, marketing and other offering costs and expenses. Following the termination of the Offering, the Advisor will reimburse us for any such amounts incurred by us in excess of 15% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. In addition, we may pay directly or reimburse the Advisor and its affiliates for certain costs incurred in connection with its provision of services to the Company, including certain acquisition costs, financing costs, and sales and marketing costs, as well as an allocable share of general and administrative overhead costs. All reimbursements are paid to the Advisor and its affiliates at cost.

NHS earns a monthly base management fee for property management services, including overseeing the day-to-day operations of the hotel properties equal to 4% of gross revenue. NHS also earns an accounting fee of $14.00 per room for accounting services, payable monthly, and an administrative fee equal to 0.60% of gross revenues for administrative and other services. The Company reimburses NHS for certain costs of operating the properties incurred on behalf of the Company. All reimbursements are paid to NHS at cost.

30

One Rep provides construction oversight, project management, and other related services to the Company. For the services provided, One Rep is paid a construction management fee equal to 6% of the total project costs. The Company also reimburses One Rep for certain costs incurred on behalf of the Company, and all reimbursements are paid to One Rep at cost.

Debt

Lines of Credit

On August 22, 2018, we entered into a $3.0 million revolving line of credit, collateralized by 300,000 partnership units of Lodging Fund REIT III OP, LP. The line of credit has a variable interest rate equal to the U.S. Prime Rate, plus 1.00%, with a minimum rate of 5.00%. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the interest rate was 5.00% and 5.75%, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, there was an outstanding balance of $1.2 million on the line of credit. There was no outstanding balance on the line of credit as of December 31, 2019. The line of credit requires monthly payments of interest only, with all principal due at maturity on November 22, 2020. The line of credit is partially guaranteed by each of Corey Maple and Norman Leslie, as the members of the Advisor, each in the amount of $1.2 million.

On February 10, 2020, we entered into a $5.0 million revolving line of credit. The line of credit requires monthly payments of interest only, with all outstanding principal amounts being due and payable at maturity on February 10, 2021. The line of credit has a variable interest rate equal to the U.S. Prime Rate, plus 0.50%, resulting in an effective rate of 3.75% per annum as of June 30, 2020. The line of credit is secured by our Cedar Rapids Property and Eagan Property, which are also subject to term loans with the same lender, and 100,000 limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The line of credit includes cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions such that the existing mortgage loan agreements with respect to the Cedar Rapids Property and the Eagan Property, as well as future loan agreements that we may enter into with this lender, are cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with each other. The line of credit, including all cross-collateralized debt, is guaranteed by Corey Maple, our Chief Executive Officer. As of June 30, 2020, there was no outstanding balance on the line of credit.

Mortgage Debt

As of June 30, 2020, we had $64.8 million in outstanding mortgage debt secured by seven properties, with maturity dates ranging from June 2024 to April 2029, with fixed interest rates ranging from 3.70% to 5.33%, and a weighted-average interest rate of 4.54%. The loans generally require monthly payments of principal and interest on an amortized basis, with certain loans allowing for an interest-only period up to 12 months following origination, and generally require a balloon payment due at maturity. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, certain mortgage debt was guaranteed by the members of the Advisor.

Forbearance Agreements and Loan Amendments

On April 17, 2020, we entered into a Change In Terms Agreement (the “Cedar Rapids Amendment”), amending the terms of the its original Promissory Note (the “Cedar Rapids Note”), dated March 5, 2019 in the original principal amount of $5.86 million. Pursuant to the Cedar Rapids Amendment, the maturity date of the Cedar Rapids Note was extended from March 1, 2024, to September 1, 2024, the requirement to make any replacement reserve deposits was waived until March 1, 2021, and the requirement to make any payments of principal and interest was deferred until October 1, 2020. In addition to the Cedar Rapids Amendment, the lender has also waived the required financial covenants under the terms of the Cedar Rapids Note through December 31, 2020.

On April 17, 2020, we entered into a Change In Terms Agreement (the “Eagan Amendment”), amending the terms of the its original Promissory Note (the “Eagan Note”), dated June 19, 2019 in the original principal amount of $9.44 million. Pursuant to the Eagan Amendment, the maturity date of the Eagan Note was extended from July 1, 2024, to January 1, 2025, the requirement to make any replacement reserve deposits was waived until June 1, 2021, and the requirement to make any payments of principal and interest was deferred until October 1, 2020. In addition to the Eagan

31

Amendment, the lender has also waived the required financial covenants under the terms of the Eagan Note through December 31, 2020.

On April 22, 2020, we entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Prattville Forbearance Agreement”), effective May 1, 2020, amending the terms of its original loan agreement (the “Prattville Loan”), dated July 11, 2019, in the original principal amount of $9.6 million. Pursuant to the Prattville Forbearance Agreement, we did not make interest payments that were due and payable during the Prattville Forbearance Period (as defined below) which constituted events of default under the terms of the Prattville Loan (collectively, the “Prattville Projected Events of Default”).  However, during the Prattville Forbearance Period, the lender agreed to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under the Prattville Loan and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Prattville Loan) to the extent such rights and remedies arise as a result of the Prattville Projected Events of Default. The lender further agreed to defer the interest accrued during the Prattville Forbearance Period such that the accrued interest of $100,878 was paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the loan. The forbearance period (the “Prattville Forbearance Period”) was the period from May 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020.

On August 14, 2020, the Prattville Loan was amended (the “Prattville Amendment”) to waive the Prattville Projected Events of Default and to adjust other terms of the Prattville Loan. The Prattville Amendment, among other things, extended the required PIP completion date to align with the extension provided by the franchise agreement, adjusted certain financial covenants, put into place certain liquidity requirements and added restrictions on capital expenditures, related party payments, including management fees payable to NHS and loan guarantee fees, and cash distributions until certain financial covenants are achieved. Pursuant to the Prattville Amendment, until certain financial covenants are achieved, the borrower may not make any payments for capital expenditures or any distributions and must maintain a minimum cash balance of $155,000 in its hotel operating account. The restriction on distributions precludes the borrower subsidiary entities from making distributions of cash to the Operating Partnership, and as of June 30, 2020, the borrower subsidiary entities had cash in the amount of $525,940, which is included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

On April 22, 2020, we entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Southaven Forbearance Agreement”), effective May 1, 2020, amending the terms of its original loan agreement (the “Southaven Loan”), dated February 21, 2020, in the original principal amount of $13.5 million. Pursuant to the Southaven Forbearance Agreement, we did not make interest payments that were due and payable during the Southaven Forbearance Period (as defined below) which constituted events of default under the terms of the Southaven Loan (collectively, the “Southaven Projected Events of Default”).  However, during the Southaven Forbearance Period, the lender agreed to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under the Southaven Loan and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Southaven Loan) to the extent such rights and remedies arise as a result of the Southaven Projected Events of Default. The lender further agreed to defer the interest accrued during the Southaven Forbearance Period such that the accrued interest of $126,110 was paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the loan. The forbearance period (the “Southaven Forbearance Period”) was the period from May 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020.

On August 14, 2020, the Southaven Loan was amended (the “Southaven Amendment”) to waive the Southaven Projected Events of Default and to adjust other terms of the Southaven Loan. The Southaven Amendment, among other things, extended the required PIP completion date to align with the extension provided by the franchise agreement, adjusted certain financial covenants, put into place certain liquidity requirements and added restrictions on capital expenditures, related party payments, including loan guarantee fees, and cash distributions until certain financial covenants are achieved. Pursuant to the Southaven Forbearance Agreement and Southaven Amendment, until certain financial covenants are achieved, the borrower may not make any payments for capital expenditures or any distributions and must maintain a minimum cash balance of $225,000 in its hotel operating account. The restriction on distributions precludes the borrower subsidiary entities from making distributions of cash to the Operating Partnership, and as of June 30, 2020, the borrower subsidiary entities had cash in the amount of $634,341, which is included in cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loans

In April 2020, we entered into six unsecured promissory notes under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), totaling $763,100. The PPP was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was passed in March 2020, and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The term of each PPP loan is two years. The interest rate on each PPP loan is 1.0% per annum, which shall be deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. After the initial six-month deferral period, each loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest until maturity with respect to any portion of such PPP loan which is not forgiven as described below.  We are permitted to prepay each PPP loan at any time with no prepayment penalties.   Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for, and be granted, forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations and ongoing rulemaking by the SBA, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance of the PPP Loans was $763,100, and we had not applied for any forgiveness, but intends to do so.

Outlook

We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and continue to assess the situation at our properties and operations on a daily basis. Each of our hotels remains open for business. However, as a result of measures taken to limit the impact of COVID-19, self-quarantines or actual viral health issues, we have experienced a reduction in bookings for hotel rooms which has negatively affected our occupancy levels and could materially and adversely affect the financial performance and value of our hotels.  All of the markets in which our properties are located have been subject to some level of restrictions on business operations. While we have seen improving demand at some of our properties as states and cities across the United States have loosened stay-at-home restrictions, we expect any recovery to occur unevenly across our portfolio. Some of our properties are located in states currently experiencing a surge in new cases and hospitalizations, which have resulted, and may continue to result, in renewed government mandates and stay-at-home orders. We expect that the reduction in hotel demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to put pressure on our occupancy levels, ADR and RevPAR, which will negatively impact cash flows from operations. Our third quarter of 2020 financial results are expected to be negatively impacted by such reduced demand. Even after travel advisories and restrictions are modified or lifted, demand for hotels may remain weak for a significant length of time, which may be a function of continued concerns over safety, unwillingness to travel, and decreased consumer spending due to economic conditions, including job losses. We cannot predict if and when the demand for our hotel properties will return to pre-outbreak levels of occupancy and pricing.

We have taken several measures intended to help maintain financial flexibility including implementing cost cutting measures where possible. The Company has implemented expense reduction efforts at all properties, including reductions in headcount, and reduced or deferred planned maintenance or capital expenditures as deemed appropriate. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, we entered into a new $5.0 million line of credit, of which the full $5.0 million was available as of the date of this filing. In April 2020, we obtained loans totaling $0.8 million under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) to help pay for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs related to six of our hotel properties. In addition, we amended the mortgage loans secured by two of our hotel properties to extend the maturity date of such loans by six months and to defer the requirement to pay principal and interest until October 1, 2020. We also entered into forbearance agreements in connection with mortgage loans secured by two of our hotel properties, pursuant to which the lenders agreed to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under such loans arising from the failure to make interest payments during the period beginning May 1, 2020 through and including July 31, 2020. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Debt” for more details regarding these measures. We have also expanded our Offering to include the offering of up to $30,000,000 of Interval Common Stock, and the Operating Partnership commenced a private offering of up to $20,000,000 of Series GO LP Units. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we have further amended the mortgage loans secured by the four hotel properties described above under “—Debt—Forbearance Agreements and Loan Agreements” to waive the required financial covenants under the terms of two of the mortgage loans through December 31, 2020 and to adjust certain financial covenants, put into place certain liquidity requirements and restrictions on capital expenditures, related party payments, and cash distributions, as well as extend certain PIP completion deadlines with respect to two of the mortgage loans.

33

To maintain cash reserves, we determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to declare

distributions quarterly, if at all, beginning in the second quarter of 2020, rather than monthly as previously had been

declared. Furthermore, the distributions declared for the second quarter of 2020 were declared and paid entirely in stock (pursuant to the DRIP), rather than cash and DRIP, as had been declared in previous periods.

Based on information currently available and our current projected operating cash flow needs and interest and debt repayments, we believe we have adequate cash for at least the next twelve months to fund our business operations, meet all of our financial commitments, and other obligations. However, we cannot predict whether future developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic will adversely affect our liquidity position.

Cash Flows

The following table provides a breakdown of the net change in our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020		2019
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(1,491,302)	$	(1,531,321)
Net cash used in investing activities		(27,839,152)		(19,022,247)

Net (decrease) increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(5,859,347)	$	2,892,489

Cash Flows Used In Operating Activities

As of June 30, 2020, we owned seven hotel properties. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $1.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Our cash flows used in operating activities generally consist of the net cash generated by or used in our hotel operations, partially offset by the cash paid for corporate expenses and other working capital changes. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources–Outlook” for a discussion of the current and expected impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 on our business. See "- Results of Operations" for further discussion of our operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Cash Flows Used In Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $27.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and primarily consisted of $27.2 million for the acquisition of two hotel properties. Net cash used in investing activities was $19.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and primarily consisted of $18.8 million for the acquisition of two hotel properties.

Cash Flows Provided By Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $23.5 million and consisted primarily of the following:

● $9.2 million of net cash provided by offering proceeds related to our Offering, net of payments of commissions and other offering costs of $2.1 million;

● $15.1 million of net cash provided by debt financing as a result of proceeds from debt financing of $21.0 million, partially offset by principal payments on debt of $5.3 million and payments of financing costs of $0.6 million;

● $0.7 million of net cash distributions, after giving effect to distributions reinvested by stockholders of $0.4 million;

● and $0.1 million paid for share redemptions.

34

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $23.5 million and consisted primarily of the following:

● $17.5 million of net cash provided by offering proceeds related to our Offering, net of payments of commissions and other offering costs of $3.4 million;

● $6.2 million of net cash provided by debt financing as a result of proceeds from debt financing of $12.6 million, partially offset by principal payments on debt of $5.7 million and payments of financing costs of $0.5 million;

● and $0.4 million of net cash distributions, after giving effect to distributions reinvested by stockholders of $0.3 million.

Distributions

During our Offering, when we may raise capital more quickly than we acquire income-producing assets, and from time to time after the Offering, we may not pay distributions solely from our cash flow from operating activities, in which case distributions may be paid in whole or in part from proceeds from the Offering or debt financing. Distributions declared, distributions paid (excluding the stock distributions declared and paid for the second quarter 2020), and net cash flow used in operations were as follows for the first and second quarter of 2020 and during each quarter of 2019:

			Distribution								Net Cash
	Distributions		Declared Per		Distributions Paid (3)(4)						Flows Used in
Period	Declared (1)		Share (1) (2)		Cash		Reinvested		Total		Operations

(1) Distributions for the periods from January 1, 2019 through March 31, 2020 were based on daily record dates and were calculated based on stockholders of record each day during this period at a rate of $0.00191781 per share per day.

(2) Assumes share was issued and outstanding each day that was a record date for distributions during the period presented.

(3) Distributions for the period from January 1, 2019 through February 29, 2020 were paid on a monthly basis, generally on or about the tenth day of the month following the record date of a given month.

(4) Distributions for the period from March 1, 2020 through March 31, 2020 were paid in July 2020.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we paid aggregate distributions (excluding the Second Quarter stock distribution) of $1.1 million, including $0.7 million of distributions paid in cash and $0.4 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $2.3 million. Net cash flow used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.5 million. We funded 100% of our distributions paid, which includes cash distributions and distributions reinvested by stockholders, with proceeds from the Offering.

In addition, we declared a stock distribution for the three months ended June 30, 2020, which we refer to as the Second Quarter stock distribution, at a daily rate of $0.00191781 per share of common stock to the stockholders of

35

record on each calendar day within the quarter. In connection with the Second Quarter stock distribution, we issued $1.2 million in shares of our common stock, consisting of 131,267 shares of common stock, in July 2020. Distributions declared and issued in shares of our common stock as the Second Quarter stock distribution are excluded from distributions declared and paid in the table above.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, we paid aggregate distributions of $2.3 million, including $1.5 million of distributions paid in cash and $0.8 million of distributions reinvested through our dividend reinvestment plan. Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $4.9 million. Net cash flows used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $3.7 million. We funded 100% of our distributions paid, which includes cash distributions and distributions reinvested by stockholders, with proceeds from the Offering.

To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operating activities, we will have less funds available for the acquisition of real estate investments, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced and subsequent investors will experience dilution.

Our board of directors has determined that, due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is in the best interests of the Company to transition from declaring and paying distributions to stockholders on a monthly basis to doing so, if at all, on a quarterly basis, beginning in the second quarter of 2020. Cash and stock distributions, if any, will be determined by our board of directors based on our financial condition and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Our board of directors has not pre-established a percentage rate of return for cash or stock distributions to stockholders. We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders.

Results of Operations

Outlook

Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are not indicative of those expected in future periods, as we were actively raising capital through our Offering and acquiring hotel properties during both of these periods, and as of June 30, 2020, had only owned three properties for a full 12 month operating cycle.

In evaluating financial condition and operating performance, important indicators on which the Company focuses are revenue measurements, such as average occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, and expenses, such as property operations expenses, general and administrative expenses and other expenses described below. Occupancy is the total number of rooms occupied for the period divided by the total number of available rooms for the period. ADR is equal to the total gross room revenue divided by the total number of rooms rented for the period.  RevPAR is equal to the total gross room revenue divided by the total number of available rooms for the period.

The outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact on the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present uncertainty and risk with respect to our financial condition and results of operations. Each of our hotels remains open for business. However, as a result of measures taken to limit the impact of COVID-19, self-quarantines or actual viral health issues, we initially experienced a substantial number of cancellations, and have experienced and continue to experience a reduction in bookings for hotel rooms compared to historical periods. Furthermore, while operating expenses at such hotels are likely to decrease, we expect that many of our hotel properties will generate substantially reduced operating cash flow, have diminished RevPAR, and may operate at a loss. We expect that these impacts are likely to continue to some extent as the outbreak persists and potentially even longer. The fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions, and, as a result, present material uncertainty and risk with respect to us and our results of operations. See “Recent Developments” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Outlook” above for further discussion of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Critical Accounting Policies

Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management believes are or will be critical to our operations. We consider these policies critical in that they involve significant management judgments and assumptions, require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.

The Company, as an emerging growth company, has elected to use the extended transition period which allows us to defer compliance with new or revised accounting standards. This allows the Company to adopt new or revised accounting standards as of the effective date for non-public business entities.

Investment in Hotel Properties

We evaluate whether each hotel property acquisition should be accounted for as an asset acquisition or a business combination. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, then the transaction is considered to be an asset acquisition. All of our acquisitions since inception have been determined to be asset acquisitions. Transaction costs associated with asset acquisitions will be capitalized and transaction costs associated with business combinations will be expensed as incurred.

Our acquisitions generally consist of land, land improvements, buildings, building improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment (“FF&E”). We may also acquire intangible assets or liabilities related to in-place leases, management agreements, debt, and advanced bookings. For transactions determined to be asset acquisitions, we allocate the purchase price among the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. For transactions determined to be business combination, we record the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. We determine the fair value by using market data and independent appraisals available to us and making numerous estimates and assumptions.

The difference between the relative fair value and the face value of debt assumed in connection with an acquisition is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt assumed. The valuation of assumed liabilities is based on our estimate of the current market rates for similar liabilities in effect at the acquisition date.

Our investments in hotel properties are carried at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 15 years for land improvements, 15 years for building improvements, 40 years for buildings and three to seven years for FF&E. Maintenance and repairs are expensed and major renewals or improvements to the hotel properties are capitalized. Interest used to finance the real estate under development is capitalized as an additional

39

cost of development. We discontinue the capitalization of interest once the real estate development project is substantially complete.

We assess the carrying value of its hotel properties whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The recoverability is measured by comparing the carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows which take into account current market conditions and our intent with respect to holding or disposing of the hotel properties. If our analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, we will recognize an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including internally developed discounted cash flow models, comparable market transactions or third-party appraisals.

The use of projected future cash flows is based on assumptions that are consistent with a market participant’s future expectations for the travel industry and the economy in general and our expected use of the underlying hotel properties. The assumptions and estimates related to the future cash flows and the capitalization rates are complex and subjective in nature. Changes in economic and operating conditions, including those occurring as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, that occur subsequent to a current impairment analysis and our ultimate use of the hotel property could impact the assumptions and result in future impairment losses to the hotel properties.

Fair Value Measurement

We establish fair value measures based on the fair value definition and hierarchy levels established by GAAP. These fair values are based on a three-tiered fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1     Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.

Level 2     Directly or indirectly observable inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets.

Level 3     Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require a reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Our estimates of fair value were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. We classify assets and liabilities in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Seasonality

Depending on a hotel’s location and market, operations for the hotel may be seasonal in nature. This seasonality can be expected to cause fluctuations in our quarterly operating performance. Based on historic trends, for hotels located in non-resort markets, demand is generally lower in the winter months due to decreased travel and higher in the spring and summer months during the peak travel season. Accordingly, excluding any impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, we generally would expect to have lower revenue, operating income and cash flow in the first and fourth quarters and higher revenue, operating income and cash flow in the second and third quarters.

Subsequent Events

Termination of Purchase and Sale Agreement

As previously disclosed, on February 17, 2020, the due diligence period expired under the Agreement of Purchase and Sale among Central PA Equities 17, LLC, Central PA Equities 19, LLC, and Springwood – FHP LP (collectively, the “Seller”) and the Operating Partnership (the “Buyer”) (each, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), dated as of November 22, 2019 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to acquire the 108-room Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott hotel in Hershey, Pennsylvania, the 107-room Home2 Suites by Hilton hotel in York, Pennsylvania, and the 100-room Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton hotel in York, Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Hotel Properties”) from the Seller for the purchase price of approximately $46.9 million plus closing costs, subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase Agreement. As required by the Purchase Agreement, we had deposited a total of $1.5 million into escrow as earnest money pending the closing or termination of the Purchase Agreement (the “Earnest Money Deposit”).

Beginning on July 31, 2020, the Parties exchanged written notices of default with one another in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The notice from each Party was based on allegations that the other Party failed to perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement provides each Party thirty (30) days from the date of such notice (the “Termination Date”) to cure its defaults. If such defaults are not cured by the Termination Date, the Purchase Agreement shall terminate, and the Seller and the Buyer must determine how to dispose of the Earnest Money Deposit.

The Buyer and Seller are currently in discussions regarding potential modifications to the timing and terms of the acquisitions of the Hotel Properties. There can be no assurance that the parties will reach any such agreement prior to the Termination Date. If the Parties are unable to reach an agreement prior to the Termination Date, the Purchase Agreement will terminate on the Termination Date and resolution on how to dispose of the Earnest Money Deposit will be required.

Distributions Paid

On July 24, 2020, the Company paid distributions of $0.4 million, declared for daily record dates for each day in the period from March 1, 2020, through March 31, 2020, which included $0.2 million of distributions paid pursuant to the DRIP.

On July 31, 2020, the Company issued $1.3 million in shares of common stock, consisting of 131,267 shares of common stock, as a stock distribution declared for daily record dates in the period from April 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020. All of such shares were issued through the DRIP.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2020, the Company is not subject to any material legal proceedings nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against the Company by any governmental authorities.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factor reflects an addition to the risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, or Annual Report.  The below risk factor should be read in conjunction with the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report.

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and other possible pandemics and similar outbreaks could result in material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus that has rapidly spread around the world, including every state in the United States, has created considerable instability and disruption in the U.S. and world economies. Substantial uncertainty still surrounds COVID-19 and its effects, and the extent of and effectiveness of any responses taken on a national and local level. However, measures taken to limit the impact of COVID-19, including shelter-in-place orders, social distancing measures and other restrictions on travel, congregation and business operations, have resulted in significant negative impacts in the United States and world economies and in relation to our business. These measures have had a severe impact on the U.S. hospitality industry. The long-term impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. and world economies remains uncertain, but is likely to result in a world-wide economic downturn, the duration and scope of which cannot currently be predicted. The extent to which our financial condition, results of operations and overall value will continue to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others.

As a result of measures taken to limit the impact of COVID-19, self-quarantines or actual viral health issues, we initially experienced a substantial number of cancellations, and have experienced and continue to experience a reduction in bookings for hotel rooms which have negatively affected our occupancy levels and could materially and adversely affect the financial performance and value of our hotels.  While certain states and cities across the United States have loosened stay-at-home restrictions, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including large outbreaks of new COVID-19 cases and surges in hospitalizations in certain regions, have resulted, and may continue to result, in renewed government mandates and stay-at-home orders. All of the markets in which our properties are located are subject to some level of restrictions on business operations. Even after travel advisories and restrictions are modified or lifted, demand for hotels may remain weak for a significant length of time, which may be a function of continued concerns over safety, unwillingness to travel, and decreased consumer spending due to economic conditions, including job losses. We cannot predict if and when the demand for our hotel properties will return to pre-outbreak levels of occupancy and pricing. The market and economic challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic, and measures implemented to prevent its spread, have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, our returns and profitability and, as a result, our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders or to realize appreciation in the value of our properties.

Additionally, the management companies that operate our hotel properties may be limited in their ability to properly maintain the properties.  Market fluctuations may affect our ability to obtain necessary funds for the operation of our hotels from current lenders or new borrowings.  In addition, we may be unable to obtain financing for the acquisition of new hotels on satisfactory terms, or at all.  Further, we have entered into agreements with lenders under our mortgage loans to provide for relief from certain obligations under the loan agreements, including deferral of payment obligations and covenant relief. If our financial condition and results of operation continue to be negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic beyond the terms of our existing lender accommodations, we may be unable to

43

obtain further extensions of the payment obligations and covenant relief, and may be forced to make additional payments on the loans which could adversely affect our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Third-party reports relating to market studies or demographics we obtained prior to the COVID-19 virus outbreak for hotels we acquired or have identified for acquisition may no longer be accurate or complete.  The occurrence of any of the foregoing events or any other related matters could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and the overall value of our properties, and stockholders may lose all or a substantial portion of their investment in us.

The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and the extent of its effect on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and related containment measures, among others. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our business, financial condition, results of operations and our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. Moreover, many risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 should be interpreted as heightened risks as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, if in the future there is an outbreak of another highly infectious or contagious disease or other health concern, our company and our properties may be subject to similar risks as posed by COVID-19.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On June 1, 2018, we commenced a private placement offering of up to $100,000,000 in shares of our common stock. We are offering these securities in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act relating to sales not involving any public offering. The securities are being offered and sold only to purchasers who are “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, and without the use of general solicitation, as that concept is embodied in Regulation D. In addition to sales of common stock for cash, we have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan, which permits stockholders to reinvest their distributions back into the Company. Except as otherwise provided in the offering memorandum, we are offering the shares in the private offering at an initial price of $10.00 per share, with shares purchased in our dividend reinvestment plan at an initial price of $9.50 per share. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we sold 197,824 shares of common stock in the private offering, resulting in gross offering proceeds of approximately $1.9 million, with no shares issued pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, aggregate selling commissions of $0.2 million and marketing and diligence allowances and other wholesale selling costs and expenses of $0.3 million were paid in connection with the private offering.

Share Repurchase Plan

The board of directors has adopted a share repurchase plan that may enable our stockholders to have their shares repurchased in limited circumstances. In its sole discretion, the board of directors could choose to terminate or suspend the plan or to amend its provisions without stockholder approval. The repurchase plan may be reviewed and modified by the board of directors as it deems necessary in its sole discretion. The following discussion summarizes the principal terms of our share repurchase plan.

Repurchase Price

Under certain circumstances and subject to the death repurchase described below, the prices at which we will repurchase shares under our repurchase plan are as follows:

● For those shares held by the stockholder for at least one year, 92% of the current share NAV;

● For those shares held by the stockholder for at least two years, 96% of the current share NAV; and

● For those shares held by the stockholder for at least three years, 100% of the current share NAV.

44

For purposes of determining the time period a stockholder has held each share, the time period begins as of the date the stockholder acquired the share, provided that shares purchased by the stockholder pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan will be deemed to have been acquired on the same date as the initial shares to which the dividend reinvestment plan shares relate. The board of directors may, in its sole discretion, reject any request for repurchase and may, upon notice to the stockholders, amend, suspend or terminate the repurchase program at any time.

Limitations on Repurchase

There are several limitations on our ability to repurchase shares under our share repurchase plan:

● Unless the shares are being repurchased in connection with a stockholder’s death, we may not repurchase shares unless the stockholder has held the shares for at least one year.

● During any calendar year, we will repurchase only the number of shares that we could purchase with the amount of net proceeds from the sale of shares under our dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. However, we may increase or decrease the funding available for the repurchase of shares pursuant to our share repurchase plan upon 10 business days’ notice to our stockholders.

● During any calendar year, we will limit the total shares repurchased to no more than 5.0% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding as of December 31 of the prior calendar year.

● We have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.

● We will not repurchase shares if the board of directors determines, in its sole discretion, that the repurchase price determined in accordance with the terms of our share repurchase plan exceeds the then current fair market value of the shares to be repurchased.

Procedures for Repurchase

We will repurchase shares within 21 days following the end of a calendar quarter. We must receive a written request for repurchase at least two business days before the end of the calendar quarter in order for us to repurchase a stockholder’s shares on the repurchase date. If we cannot repurchase all shares presented for repurchase in any quarter, we will attempt to honor repurchase requests on a pro rata basis. The board of directors may, in its sole discretion, reject any request for repurchase.

If we did not completely satisfy a stockholder’s repurchase request on a repurchase date because we did not receive the request in time, because of the limitations on repurchases set forth in our share repurchase plan or because of a suspension of our share repurchase plan, we would treat the unsatisfied portion of the repurchase request as a request for repurchase at the next repurchase date at which funds are available for repurchase unless the stockholder withdraws its request. Any stockholder may withdraw a repurchase request upon written notice to the program administrator if such notice is received at least two business days before the repurchase date.

All shares to be repurchased must be (i) fully transferable and not be subject to any liens or other encumbrances and (ii) free from any restrictions on transfer. If we determine that a lien or other encumbrance or restriction exists against the shares, we will not repurchase any such shares.

Neither we nor the board of directors will have any liability to any stockholder for any damages resulting from or related to the stockholder’s presentment of its shares. Further, stockholders will have complete responsibility for payment of all taxes, assessments and other applicable obligations and third-party costs resulting from or relating to our repurchase of shares. All repurchased shares shall be repurchased as treasury shares and may be made available for purchase to new or existing stockholders.

45

Special Repurchases—Death Repurchase

In the event of the death of a stockholder, the Company will, upon request and within six months from the date of the request, repurchase such stockholder’s shares regardless of the period the deceased stockholder has owned such shares at the following prices:

● 92% of the current share NAV if death occurs less than six months of the purchase;

● 96% of the current share NAV if death occurs from six months to one year of purchase; and

● 100% of the current share NAV if death occurs after one year of purchase.

We will not be obligated to repurchase a deceased stockholder’s shares if more than two years have elapsed from the date of death.

Amendment, Suspension or Termination of Program and Notice

The board of directors may, at any time and without stockholder approval, upon 10 business days’ written notice to the stockholders (i) amend, suspend or terminate our share repurchase plan and (ii) increase or decrease the funding available for the repurchase of shares pursuant to our share repurchase plan.

Shares Repurchased

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased shares of our common stock in the following amounts, which represented all of the share repurchase requests received for the same period.  During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we funded repurchases under our share repurchase plan with the net proceeds from our dividend reinvestment plan.

Month	Total Number of Shares Repurchased		Average Price Paid Per Share		Approximate Dollar Value of Shares Available That May Yet Be Repurchased Under the Program
January 2020		10,000	$	9.20		(1)
February 2020		—	$	—		(1)
March 2020		—	$	—		(1)
Total		10,000
April 2020		—	$	—		(1)
May 2020		—	$	—		(1)
June 2020		—	$	—		(1)
Total		—
Six Months Ended June 30, 2020		10,000

⁽¹⁾ We limit the dollar value of shares that may be redeemed under the plan as described above. One of these limitations is that during each calendar year, our share repurchase plan limits the number of shares we may repurchase to those that we could purchase with the amount of the net proceeds from the sale of shares under our dividend reinvestment plan during the prior calendar year. However, we may increase or decrease the funding available for the redemption of shares upon ten business days’ notice to our stockholders. Based on the repurchase limits described above, as of June 30, 2020, there was $707,133 available for eligible purchases for the remainder of 2020.

Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities

None.

46

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information

Because this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is being filed within four business days after the applicable reportable events, the information below is being disclosed under this Item 5 instead of under Item 1.01 (Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement) of Form 8-K.

Amendment of Prattville Loan Documents

As previously disclosed, the Company, through its subsidiaries LF3 Prattville, LLC and LF3 Prattville TRS, LLC (the “Prattville Borrowers”), entered into a loan agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Lender”) (the “Prattville Loan”), dated July 11, 2019, in the original principal amount of $9.6 million. The Prattville Loan is secured by a mortgage lien on the Prattville Property. The Prattville Loan is also guaranteed by Corey Maple, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “Guarantor” and, together with the Prattville Borrowers and the Lender, the “Prattville Parties”) pursuant to a Guaranty. The Lender is not affiliated with the Prattville Parties or the Advisor. Also as previously disclosed, on April 22, 2020, the Prattville Parties entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Prattville Forbearance Agreement”), effective May 1, 2020, pursuant to which the Lender agreed, during the Forbearance Period (as defined below) to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under the Prattville Loan and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Prattville Loan) to the extent such rights and remedies arise as a result of the Prattville Borrower’s failure to make interest payments that were due and payable during the Forbearance Period which constituted events of default under the terms of the Prattville Loan (“collectively, the “Prattville Projected Events of Default”) and agreed to defer the interest accrued during the Forbearance Period such that the accrued interest of $100,878 was paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the Prattville Loan. The Forbearance Period was the period from May 1, 2020 through July 31, 2020.

On August 14, 2020, the Prattville Parties entered into an amendment to Prattville Loan, amendment to the Guaranty and an amended and restated term loan note (collectively, the “Prattville Amendment”) to waive the Prattville Projected Events of Default and to adjust certain other terms of the Prattville Loan, Guaranty and note. The Prattville Amendment, among other things, extends the required PIP completion date to align with the extension provided by the franchise agreement for the Prattville Property, adjusts certain required financial covenants and the timing of compliance with such financial covenants, including the debt service coverage ratio and debt yield, puts into place certain liquidity requirements and adds restrictions on capital expenditures, related party payments, including management fees payable to NHS and loan guarantee fees payable to the Guarantor, and cash distributions until certain financial covenants are achieved. The various restrictions remain in place until the Prattville Borrowers achieve the required debt service coverage ratio and debt yield for at least two consecutive calendar quarters, which shall in no event be before June 30, 2021. Pursuant to the Prattville Amendment, until certain financial covenants are achieved, the Prattville Borrowers may not make any payments for capital expenditures or any distributions and must maintain a minimum cash balance of $155,000 in its hotel operating account. The restriction on distributions precludes the Prattville Borrowers from making distributions of cash to the Operating Partnership.

Amendment of Southaven Loan Documents

As previously disclosed, the Company, through its subsidiaries LF3 Southaven, LLC and LF3 Southaven TRS, LLC (the “Southaven Borrowers”), entered into a loan agreement with Lender (the “Southaven Loan”), dated February 21, 2020, in the original principal amount of $13.5 million. The Southaven Loan is secured by a mortgage lien on the Southaven Property. The Southaven Loan is also guaranteed by the Guarantor (the “Guarantor,” together with the Southaven Borrowers and the Lender, the “Southaven Parties”) pursuant to a Guaranty. The Lender is not affiliated with the Southaven Parties or the Advisor. Also as previously disclosed, on April 22, 2020, the Southaven Parties entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Southaven Forbearance Agreement”), effective May 1, 2020, pursuant to which the Lender agreed, during the Forbearance Period to forbear from exercising any available rights and remedies under the Southaven Loan and other Loan Documents (as defined in the Southaven Loan) to the extent such rights and remedies

47

arise as a result of the Borrower’s failure to make interest payments that were due and payable during the Forbearance Period which constituted events of default under the terms of the Southaven Loan (“collectively, the “Southaven Projected Events of Default”) and agreed to defer the interest accrued during the Forbearance Period such that the accrued interest of $126,110 was paid-in-kind and added to the outstanding principal balance of the Southaven Loan.

.

On August 14, 2020, the Southaven Parties entered into an amendment to Southaven Loan, amendment to the Guaranty and an amended and restate term loan note (collectively, the “Southaven Amendment”) to waive the Southaven Projected Events of Default and to adjust other terms of the Southaven Loan, Guaranty and note. The Southaven Amendment, among other things, extends the required PIP completion date to align with the extension provided by the franchise agreement for the Southaven Property, adjusts the timing of compliance with certain financial covenants, including the debt service coverage ratio and debt yield, puts into place certain liquidity requirements and adds restrictions on capital expenditures, related party payments, including loan guarantee fees payable to the Guarantor, and cash distributions until certain financial covenants are achieved. The various restrictions remain in place until the Southaven Borrowers achieve the required debt service coverage ratio and debt yield for at least two consecutive calendar quarters, which shall in no event be before June 30, 2021. Pursuant to the Southaven Amendment, until certain financial covenants are achieved, the Southaven Borrowers may not make any payments for capital expenditures or any distributions and must maintain a minimum cash balance of $225,000 in its hotel operating account. The restriction on distributions precludes the Southaven Borrowers from making distributions of cash to the Operating Partnership.

The foregoing descriptions of the Prattville Amendment and Southaven Amendment do not purport to be complete descriptions and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Prattville Amendment loan documents and the Southaven Amendment loan documents.
