 encourage our directors to visit our hotels and other hotels in order to maintain and enhance their knowledge of our portfolio and the lodging industry. All of such reimbursement was considered taxable income to the director who received such reimbursement and is disclosed in the “All Other Compensation” column of the chart entitled “Director Compensation.”

#### Stock Ownership Policy for Directors
The Company encourages our directors to own shares of the Company's stock. We pursue this goal via our stock ownership policy, which establishes an ownership target for each of our non-employee directors on an annual basis. The ownership target for a non-employee director is determined by multiplying the annual cash retainer for Board membership for that year by five and then dividing that result by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock during the first 10 trading days of the same calendar year ($8.85 per share for 2025). We count towards this minimum stock ownership target both owned shares and deferred stock units. Directors are expected to achieve this ownership target within five (5) years of joining the Board. Each non-employee director is restricted from selling any shares of Company stock if such sale would result in the director not meeting the minimum stock ownership target, except (i) as needed to pay personal taxes related to the issuance of Company stock from equity compensation grants, (ii) if such director has additional time within which to come into compliance with the policy, or (iii) for shares that the director has purchased on the open market. As of December 31, 2024, each of our non-employee directors holds shares in excess of his or her 2025 ownership target, except Ms. Zalotrawala and Ms. Lepori, who were elected to our Board of Directors in 2021 and 2025, respectively, and have additional time within which to come into compliance with the ownership target.
