As of September 30, 2021, we owned 1,098 properties in 47 states, the District of Columbia, Canada and Puerto Rico.

As of March 31, 2022, we owned 1,084 properties in 47 states, the District of Columbia, Canada and Puerto Rico.

Business Environment and Outlook.

Since March 2020, the lodging industry and other industries in which our managers and tenants operate have been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 global pandemic, along with federal, state and local government mandates intended to contain and mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and market reactions to the pandemic.

The effects of COVID-19 continue to have a significant negative impact on our results of operations, financial position and cash flow.

Although lodging demand improved during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 when compared to 2020 levels, we cannot predict with certainty when business levels may return to historical pre-pandemic levels.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it has had on travel and the broader economy throughout the U.S.

since March 2020, our hotels have experienced significant declines in occupancy, which have had and are expected to continue to have a significant negative effect on our operating results and cash flow.

While occupancy has since recovered significantly, there remains uncertainty as to when and if operations at our hotels will return to pre-pandemic levels.

We currently expect that the recovery with respect to business transient and group business will be gradual and likely inconsistent.

We also currently expect the recovery of the U.S.

hospitality industry to be a multi-year process and to remain uneven.

In addition, consumer confidence and lodging demand will continue to be affected by unemployment, perceptions of the safety of returning to normal activities, the continued use of video conferencing technologies rather than in person meetings and broader macroeconomic trends.

We are closely monitoring the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, specifically, but not limited to, labor availability and cost pressures from supply chain disruptions and commodity price inflation in our hotel portfolio.

For more information and risks relating to the COVID-19 pandemic on us and our business, see Part I, Item 1, “Business—Impact of COVID-19” and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2020 Annual Report.

Our manager, RMR LLC, has taken various actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to address its operating and financial impact on us.

In addition, we are continuing to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business.

For more information regarding these actions and monitoring activities, see our 2020 Annual Report.

hospitality industry to be a multi-year process.

In addition, consumer confidence and lodging demand will continue to be affected by unemployment levels, perceptions of the safety of returning to normal activities, the continued use of video conferencing technologies rather than in person meetings and broader macroeconomic trends.

These trends, together with increasing labor costs and shortages and commodity and other price inflation and supply chain challenges, may continue to negatively impact our hotel operations and financial results.

As of March 31, 2022, our $1,000,000 revolving credit facility was scheduled to mature on July 15, 2022.

In April 2022, we amended the agreement governing the credit facility to among other things, obtain additional covenant relief, we repaid $200,000 of the outstanding balance, and reduced the size of the facility from $1,000,000 to $800,000.

Also in April 2022, we exercised a six month option to extend the maturity date to January 15, 2023.

We have $500,000 of unsecured senior notes due on August 15, 2022, which we currently expect to repay with cash on hand on or prior to the maturity date.

From April 1, 2022 through May 3, 2022, we sold 16 hotels with 2,021 rooms for an aggregate sales price of $169,469, excluding closing costs and four net lease properties with 38,578 square feet for an aggregate sales price of $3,469, excluding closing costs.

As of May 3, 2022, we have entered into agreements to sell 42 Sonesta branded hotels located in 22 states for an aggregate sales price of $301,125 and five net lease properties with an aggregate of 64,617 square feet for an aggregate sales price of $3,815.

We expect the majority of these sales to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2022.

We continue to market four additional hotels with 631 keys for sale.

As of May 3, 2022, we have $916,106 of cash or cash equivalents.

Our Managers and Tenants

As of September 30, 2021, all 304 of our hotels were managed by five hotel operating companies pursuant to six combination portfolio agreements.

Our 794 net lease properties were leased to 175 tenants as of September 30, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, all 298 of our hotels were managed by five hotel operating companies.

Our 786 net lease properties were leased to 174 tenants as of March 31, 2022.

The costs of operating and maintaining our properties are generally paid by the hotel managers as agents for us or by our tenants for their own account.

Our hotel managers and tenants derive their funding for property operating expenses and for returns and rents due to us generally from property operating revenues and, to the extent that these parties themselves fund our minimum returns and rents, from their separate resources.

As of September 30, 2021, our hotel managers included Sonesta (261 hotels), Hyatt (17 hotels), Radisson (nine hotels), Marriott (16 hotels) and IHG (one hotel).

Our hotel managers and tenants derive their funding for property operating expenses and for returns and rents due to us generally from property operating revenues and, to the extent that these parties themselves fund our owner’s priority returns and rents, from their separate resources.

As of March 31, 2022, our hotel managers included Sonesta (256 hotels), Hyatt (17 hotels), Radisson (eight hotels), Marriott (16 hotels) and IHG (one hotel).

TA is our largest tenant (179 travel centers).

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material and adverse effect on the lodging and service industries and on our hotel managers’ and tenants’ businesses, which may reduce their ability or willingness to pay us our minimum returns and rents, increase the likelihood they will default in paying us returns and rent and reduce the value of those properties.

As of March 31, 2022, we owned 256 hotels that are managed by Sonesta and 62 of these hotels are Sale Hotels.

On January 7, 2022, we and Sonesta amended and restated our management agreements effective January 1, 2022.

As of that date, we owned 261 hotels managed by Sonesta, including the 67 Sale Hotels.

Among other terms, the changes to the agreements between us and Sonesta for 194 hotels, or the retained hotels, are as follows:

• The term for the Retained Hotels expires on January 31, 2037 and includes two 15-year renewal options.

• All Retained Hotels are subject to a pooling agreement that combines the management agreements for the Retained Hotels for purposes of calculating gross revenues, hotel operating expenses, fees and distributions and the owner’s priority return due to us.

• The owner’s priority return for the Retained Hotels was initially set at $325,200 annually.

We have the right to terminate Sonesta’s management of specific hotels that we own if minimum performance thresholds are not met starting in 2023.

• We will renovate the Retained Hotels to comply with agreed upon brand standards.

As we advance such funding or fund other capital expenditures, the aggregate annual owner’s priority return due to us will increase by 6% of the amounts funded.

• Trade area restrictions by hotel brand were added to define boundaries to protect our owned hotels in response to Sonesta increasing its franchising and third-party management activities.

For the Sale Hotels, the term was extended to the earlier of December 31, 2022 (or until the applicable hotel has been sold) and the FF&E reserve funding requirement was removed.

Our owner’s priority return will be reduced by the current owner’s priority return for a Sale Hotel once sold.

The total owner’s priority return for all the sale hotels is $84,653 as of March 31, 2022.

See Notes 5 and 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on these agreements.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material and adverse effect on the lodging and service industries and on our hotel managers’ and tenants’ businesses, which may reduce their ability or willingness to pay us our owner’s priority returns and rents, increase the likelihood they will default in paying us returns and rent and reduce the value of those properties.

We continue to carefully monitor the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our operators and our other stakeholders.

As of January 1, 2021, Marriott managed 105 of our hotels under agreements we had terminated in 2020 for Marriott’s failure to pay the cumulative shortfall between the payments we had received and 80% of the cumulative priority returns due to us in accordance with the agreement.

We transitioned the branding and management of 88 Marriott hotels to Sonesta in February 2021 and March 2021.

We sold one Marriott hotel in April 2021.

As of September 30, 2021 , Marriott managed 16 of our hotels.

For further information regarding this sale, see the Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We are in arbitration proceedings with Marriott regarding, among other things, the timing and characterization of certain payments made to us, including Marriott’s assertion that we are required to refund $19,120 of minimum return advances made to us in 2020, and the validity of the timing of the termination of the Marriott agreements, including an exit hotel agreement which, if not terminated, would require us to sell the 16 hotels encumbered with a Marriott brand.

We are also seeking repayment of certain working capital advances we made to Marriott during 2020.

We have entered an agreement with Marriott regarding the 16 hotels noted above, pursuant to which we agreed to have these hotels remain Marriott branded hotels until the arbitration is resolved.

On June 7, 2021, we and Hyatt amended our Hyatt agreement.

Under our amended Hyatt agreement, Hyatt will continue to manage 17 of the 22 hotels we own for a 10-year term effective April 1, 2021.

Our amended Hyatt agreement sets our annual minimum return at $12,000, and Hyatt provided us with a new $30,000 limited guarantee for 75% of the aggregate annual minimum returns due to us beginning in 2023.

Under our amended Hyatt agreement a management fee of 5% of gross room revenues payable to Hyatt will be an operating cost paid senior to our minimum return.

Hyatt may also earn a 20% incentive management fee after payment of our annual minimum return and reimbursement of certain advances, if any.

We agreed to fund approximately $50,000 of renovations that are expected to be completed by the end of 2022.

We transitioned the branding and management of the remaining five hotels that Hyatt previously managed to Sonesta in June 2021.

On November 1, 2021, we and Radisson amended our Radisson agreement.

Under our amended Radisson agreement, Radisson will continue to manage eight of the nine hotels we own for a 10-year term effective August 1, 2021.

Our amended Radisson agreement sets our annual minimum return at $10,200 and Radisson has provided us with a new $22,000 limited guarantee for 75% of the aggregate annual minimum returns beginning in 2023.

Under our amended Radisson agreement, a management fee of 5% of gross room revenues for each hotel operated under the Country Inn & Suites brand and a management fee of 3% of gross room revenues for each hotel managed under the Radisson Hotel brand payable to Radisson will be an operating cost paid senior to our minimum return.

Radisson may also earn a 20% incentive management fee after payment of our annual minimum return and reimbursement of certain advances, if any.

We also agreed to fund approximately $12,000 of renovations that are expected to be completed by the end of 2022.

We transitioned the branding and management of the ninth hotel that Radisson previously managed to Sonesta on November 1, 2021.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we entered into a rent deferral agreement for $2,852 of rent with one net lease tenant.

We had $10,827 of deferred rents outstanding related to 15 tenants who represent approximately 2.9% of our annualized rental income of our net lease retail portfolio as of September 30, 2021.

Generally, the rent deferrals we have entered into are payable by the tenants over a 12 to 24 month period.

We may receive additional similar requests in the future, and we may determine to grant additional relief in the future, which may vary from the type of relief we have granted to date, and could include more substantial relief, if we determine it prudent or appropriate to do so.

In addition, if any of our tenants are unable to continue as going concerns as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on economic conditions or otherwise, we will experience a reduction in rents received and we may be unable to find suitable replacement tenants for an extended period or at all and the terms of our leases with those replacement tenants may not be as favorable to us as the terms of our agreements with our existing tenants.

As a result of these uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and the duration and extent of the resulting economic conditions, we are unable to determine what the ultimate impact will be on our tenants and their ability and willingness to pay us rent and any additional impact this pandemic will have on our future cash flows.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we reduced our reserves for uncollectible amounts and increased rental income by $5,373 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 based on our assessment of collectibility and cash received from certain tenants.

We recorded reserves for uncollectible amounts against rental income of $2,369 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, and $588 and $7,689 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

We had reserves for uncollectible rents of $16,434 and $18,230 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2022, we had $6,355 of deferred rents outstanding related to six tenants who represented approximately 6.6% of our annualized rental income of our net lease retail portfolio as of March 31, 2022, to which we granted rent relief during the COVID-19 pandemic.

We define net lease coverage as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and rent, or EBITDAR, divided by the annual minimum rent due to us weighted by the minimum rent of the property to total minimum rents of the net lease portfolio.

In instances where we do not have financial information for the most recent quarter from our tenants, we have calculated an implied EBITDAR for the period using industry benchmark data to more accurately reflect the current operating trends.

Our Operating Liquidity and Capital Resources

We receive minimum returns and rents from our managers and tenants monthly.

Our principal sources of funds to meet operating and capital expenses, debt service obligations and distributions to our shareholders are owner’s priority returns from our hotels, rents from our net lease portfolio and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

We may receive additional returns, percentage rents and our share of the operating profits of our managed hotels after payment of management fees and other deductions, if any, either monthly or quarterly, and these amounts are usually subject to annual reconciliations.

We believe we have sufficient liquidity to withstand the current decline in operating cash flow, fund our capital expenditures, pay debt service obligations and make distributions to our shareholders for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

However, our managers and tenants may become further or increasingly unable or unwilling to pay minimum returns and rents to us when due as a result of current economic conditions and, as a result, our revenue, cash flow, and net income could decline.

Under the challenging operating environment posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the slowdown in U.S.

economic activity and lodging demand beginning in March 2020, we have taken steps to preserve liquidity by drawing down the remaining capacity on our $1,000,000 revolving credit facility, maintaining our quarterly distribution to our shareholders at $0.01 per share, which we expect to continue at that rate for the foreseeable future, subject to applicable REIT tax requirements, by selectively making capital expenditures, and by continuing to work with our hotel operators to reduce hotel operating expenses.

We intend to use available cash in the near term predominantly to fund any operating losses at our hotels, to pay corporate expenses, including debt service, fund capital expenditures, and to pay distributions to our shareholders.

As of September 30, 2021, we were not in compliance with one of our debt covenants necessary to incur additional debt, and as a result, we will not be able to incur additional debt until we satisfy that covenant.

The change from cash flows provided by operating activities in the 2020 period to cash flows used in operating activities in the 2021 period is primarily due to lower returns earned from our hotel portfolio and higher interest expense in the 2021 period.

The decrease in cash flows used in investing activities in the 2021 period is primarily due to a decrease in hotel managers’ purchases with restricted cash and a decrease in real estate dispositions in the 2021 period, partially offset by an investment in Sonesta we made in the 2021 period and our receipt of a hotel manager’s deposit of insurance proceeds into restricted cash during the 2020 period.

The increase in cash provided by financing activities for the 2021 period as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to a draw down of the remaining capacity on our $1,000,000 revolving credit facility, a decrease in net senior notes issuances and lower common share distributions compared to the 2020 period.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the adverse impact on the lodging industry and our properties, we and certain of our hotel operators agreed to temporarily suspend the required contribution to our FF&E reserves under certain of our agreements.

As a result, less cash will be available to us to fund future capital improvements and we may be required to provide additional fundings that may have otherwise been available in escrowed FF&E reserves.

Such fundings are unlikely to materially increase in the near term above what we currently expect, as reduced occupancies are resulting in less usage and less wear and tear of our properties.

• in order to exercise the first six month extension option under the credit agreement, we would have needed to be in compliance with the financial covenants under the agreement calculated using pro forma projections as defined in the agreement for the quarter ending June 30, 2022, annualized, and have repaid or refinanced our $500,000 of 5.00% senior notes due in August 2022;

• we were not able to utilize the feature in our credit agreement pursuant to which maximum aggregate borrowings may be increased to up to $2,300,000 on a combined basis in certain circumstances until we demonstrate compliance with certain covenants.

On April 14, 2022, we further amended our credit agreement and exercised our option to extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility by six months to January 15, 2023.

Pursuant to the amendment:

• we repaid $200,000 of the outstanding balance and reduced the size of the revolving credit facility from $1,000,000 to $800,000;

• we are permitted to acquire up to an aggregate of $300,000 of real property through the waiver period, which was extended pursuant to the amendment to December 31, 2022;

• certain of the financial covenants in our credit agreement will be tested and in full force and effect beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2022 and were modified to lower the required fixed charge coverage ratio from 1.5x to 1.0x through December 31, 2022, increase the required leverage ratio limit from 60% to 70% and increase the minimum liquidity requirement from $125,000 to $150,000 (which amount is subject to an additional increase as noted below);

• we can fund through the waiver period an aggregate of $100,000 of capital contributions requested by Sonesta for business activities and to acquire additional shares of common stock of TA to retain our pro rata ownership of TA, an increase from the previous aggregate limit of $50,000;

• the interest rate premium payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility is increased from 235 basis points per annum to 250 basis points per annum, with the facility fee remaining unchanged at 30 basis points per annum on the total amount of lending commitments under the facility.

The interest rate premiums and the facility fee continue to be subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings and, pursuant to the amendment, the interest rate premium will increase by an additional 25 basis points if we do not satisfy certain financial covenants;

• we are required to maintain minimum liquidity of $650,000 until we repay our $500,000 of 5.0% senior notes due in August, 2022 and at least $150,000 of liquidity thereafter.

We continue to have the option to further extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility by an additional six months, subject to the payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, including pursuant to the amendment, maintaining a $650,000 minimum liquidity requirement until we repay or refinance our $500,000 of 4.5% senior notes due June 2023.

This requirement is reduced to $150,000 if we are in compliance with certain financial covenants, including the 1.5x ratio of consolidated income available for debt service to debt service required to incur additional debt under the agreements governing our public debt.

Our revolving credit facility continues to be secured by 73 properties with an undepreciated book value of $1,757,253 as of March 31, 2022 to secure our obligations under the credit agreement.

Our term debt maturities (other than our revolving credit facility) as of March 31, 2022 were as follows:

None of our unsecured debt obligations require principal or sinking fund payments prior to their maturity dates.

We currently expect to use cash on hand, the cash flows from our operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility (when available), net proceeds from any asset sales and net proceeds of offerings of equity or debt securities, as allowed by our existing credit agreement, to fund our operations, capital expenditures, future debt maturities, distributions to our shareholders and other general business purposes.

While we believe we will generally have access to various types of financings, including debt or equity, to fund our future acquisitions and to pay our debts and other obligations, we cannot be sure that we will be able to complete any debt or equity offerings or other types of financings or that our cost of any future public or private financings will not increase.

Also, as noted above, we are limited in our ability to incur additional debt pursuant to our debt agreements and are not permitted under our debt agreements to incur any debt while below the 1.5x debt service coverage ratio requirement under our public debt covenants as described below.

Our ability to complete, and the costs associated with, future debt transactions depends primarily upon credit market conditions and our then perceived creditworthiness.

We intend to conduct our business activities in a manner which will afford us reasonable access to capital for investment and financing activities.

However, as discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on economic conditions are uncertain and may have various negative consequences on us and our operations including a decline in financing availability and increased costs for financing.

However, as discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on economic conditions, as well as the impact of the current and possibly future, inflationary conditions are uncertain and may have various negative consequences on us and our operations including a decline in financing availability and increased costs for financing.

Further, such conditions could also disrupt the capital markets generally and limit our access to financing from public sources or on favorable terms, particularly if the global financial markets experience significant disruptions.

Debt Covenants

Our debt obligations at September 30, 2021 consisted of outstanding borrowings under our $1,000,000 revolving credit facility and $6,200,000 of publicly issued term debt.

Our debt obligations at March 31, 2022 consisted of outstanding borrowings under our $1,000,000 revolving credit facility and $6,200,000 of publicly issued term debt.

Our publicly issued term debt is governed by our indentures and related supplements.

These indentures and related supplements and our credit agreement contain covenants that generally restrict our ability to incur debts, including debts secured by mortgages on our properties, in excess of calculated amounts, and require us to maintain various financial ratios and our credit agreement currently restricts our ability to make certain investments and limits our distributions under certain circumstances.

Our credit agreement and our unsecured senior notes, indentures and their supplements provide for acceleration of payment of all amounts outstanding upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, such as, in the case of our credit agreement, a change of control of us, which includes RMR LLC ceasing to act as our business manager.

As of September 30, 2021, we believe we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our indentures and their supplements and our credit agreement, subject to the waivers and except as noted above and below.

As of March 31, 2022, we believe we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our indentures and their supplements and our credit agreement, subject to the waivers and except as noted above and below.
