Other Information

Non-employee directors’ compensation is paid based on an annual period
commencing with the annual shareholders meeting. The Company reimburses
directors for travel expenses, other out-of-pocket costs they incur when they
attend meetings and, for one meeting per year, attendance by spouses. To
encourage our directors to visit and personally evaluate properties, the
directors also receive complimentary rooms, food and beverages at Company-owned,
operated or franchised hotels when on personal travel. The value of these
benefits is reported to the directors as taxable compensation.

Employee Directors

Officers of the Company are not paid for their service as directors.
