5, we amended the mortgage loan secured by The Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe. Terms of the amendment included extending the maturity date from July 2025 to July 2026. 

On August 7, 2025, we sold the Marriott Seattle Waterfront hotel pursuant to an Agreement of Purchase and Sale, entered into effective July 3, 2025, for $145 million in cash, subject to customary pro-rations and adjustments. Additionally, the Company repaid approximately $88.4 million on the mortgage loan that was partially secured by the hotel property.

On August 15, 2025, the Company refinanced its $140.0 million mortgage loan secured by the Four Seasons Scottsdale which had an interest rate of SOFR + 3.75% and a final maturity date in December 2028. The new non-recourse loan has a balance of $180.0 million and bears interest at a floating rate of SOFR + 3.00%. The new loan has a three-year initial term with two, one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. 

On August 25, 2025, Braemar, Ashford Trust, and Ashford Inc. (collectively, the “Company Group”) entered into a cooperation agreement (the “Agreement”) with Babak “Bob” Ghassemieh and certain related parties of Mr. Ghassemieh (together with the other signatories other than the Company Group, the “Ghassemieh Group”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company appointed Mr. Ghassemieh to the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and the Ghassemieh Group agreed to withdraw the notice delivered to the Company on June 2, 2025, purporting to nominate director candidates to the Board. In addition, the Company agreed to nominate Mr. Ghassemieh or a Replacement Director (as defined below) for election at the Company’s 2025 and 2026 annual stockholder meetings.

The Agreement provides the Ghassemieh Group rights to a replacement director (a “Replacement Director”) selected by the Board from a specified list of individuals in the event that Mr. Ghassemieh ceases to serve as a director under certain circumstances. These replacement rights fall away if the Ghassemieh Group ceases to hold the Minimum Ownership Threshold (as defined below). Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement
