Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except share data)
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
Service Properties Trust, or we, us or our, is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, organized on February 7,
1995 under the laws of the State of Maryland, which invests in hotels and service-focused retail net lease properties. At September 30, 2022, we owned, directly and through our subsidiaries, 242 hotels and 769 net lease properties.
At September 30, 2022, all 242 of our hotels were operated by subsidiaries of the following companies: Sonesta Holdco Corporation, or Sonesta ( 200 hotels), Hyatt Hotels Corporation, or Hyatt ( 17 hotels), Radisson Hospitality, Inc., or Radisson ( eight hotels), Marriott International, Inc., or Marriott ( 16 hotels), and InterContinental Hotels Group, plc, or IHG ( one hotel). At September 30, 2022, we owned 769 net lease properties with 178 tenants, including 179 travel centers leased to TravelCenters of America Inc., or TA, our largest tenant. Hereinafter, these companies are sometimes referred to as our managers and/or tenants, or collectively, operators.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of us are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, or our 2021 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period, have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries, all of which are 100 % owned directly or indirectly by us. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods and those of our managers and tenants are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in our condensed consolidated financial statements include the allowance for credit losses, purchase price allocations, useful lives of fixed assets, impairment of real estate and related intangibles.
We have determined that each of our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, is a variable interest entity, or VIE, as defined under the Consolidation Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification ™ . We have concluded that we must consolidate each of our wholly owned TRSs because we are the entity with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact such VIEs’ performance and we have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from each VIE that could be significant to the VIE and are, therefore, the primary beneficiary of each VIE. The assets of our TRSs were $ 166,075 and $ 113,705 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and consist primarily of our TRSs’ investment in Sonesta’s common stock and amounts due from and working capital advances to certain of our hotel managers. The liabilities of our TRSs were $ 35,968 and $ 42,432 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and consist primarily of amounts payable to certain of our hotel managers. The assets of our TRSs are available to satisfy our TRSs’ obligations and we have guaranteed certain obligations of our TRSs.
Note 2. Revenue Recognition
We report hotel operating revenues for managed hotels in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). We generally recognize hotel operating revenues, consisting primarily of room and food and beverage sales, when goods and services are provided.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, except share data)
(Unaudited)
We report rental income for leased properties in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). We recognize rental income from operating leases on a straight line basis over the term of the lease agreements. We reduced rental income by $ 1,845 and $ 905 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and reduced rental income by $ 5,530 and $ 3,087 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, to record scheduled rent changes under certain of our leases, the deferred rent obligations payable to us under our leases with TA and the estimated future payments to us under our TA leases for the cost of removing underground storage tanks at our travel centers on a straight line basis. See Notes 5 and 10 for further information regarding our TA leases. Due from related persons includes $ 10,840 and $ 20,655 and other assets, net, includes $ 31,176 and $ 26,881 of straight line rent receivables at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Certain of our lease agreements require additional percentage rent if gross revenues of our properties exceed certain thresholds defined in our lease agreements. We may determine percentage rent due to us under our leases monthly, quarterly or annually, depending on the specific lease terms, and recognize it when all contingencies are met and the rent is earned. We recorded percentage rent of $ 2,279 and $ 555 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 3,421 and $ 944 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We had deferred estimated percentage rent of $ 830 and $ 1,849 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 6,168 and $ 4,827 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 5 for further information on this deferred estimated percentage rent.
Note 3. Weighted Average Common Shares
We calculate basic earnings per common share under the two class method. We calculate diluted earnings per share using the more dilutive of the two class method or the treasury stock method. Unvested share awards, and the related impact on earnings, are considered when calculating diluted earnings per share. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no dilutive common shares and certain unvested common shares were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been antidilutive.
Note 4. Real Estate Properties
At September 30, 2022, we owned 242 hotels with an aggregate of 40,563 rooms or suites and 769 service-oriented retail properties with an aggregate of 13,412,371 square feet that are primarily subject to “triple net” leases, or net leases where the tenant is generally responsible for payment of operating expenses and capital expenditures of the property during the lease term. Our properties had an aggregate undepreciated carrying value of $ 9,715,649 , including $ 142,972 related to properties classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2022.
We made capital expenditures at certain of our properties of $ 73,952 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Acquisitions
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we acquired the previously leased land at one of our hotels for a purchase price of $ 2,765 , including acquisition related costs of $ 51 . This acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition and the entire purchase price was allocated to land.
Dispositions
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we sold 80 properties for an aggregate sales price of $ 531,737 , excluding closing costs, as presented in the table below. The sales of these properties do not represent significant dispositions nor do they represent a strategic shift. As a result, the results of the operations of these properties are included in continuing operations through the date of sale in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

From October 1, 2022 through November 1, 2022, we sold one hotel with 120 rooms and a carrying value of $ 4,514 for a sales price of $ 6,025 . See Notes 5 and 13 for further information on these properties.
As of November 1, 2022, we have entered into agreements to sell 16 Marriott branded hotels and four Sonesta branded hotels with an aggregate of 2,701 rooms for an aggregate sales price of $ 162,470 , excluding closing costs. These pending sales are subject to conditions; as a result, these sales may not occur, may be delayed or their terms may change. We continue to market one additional hotel with 219 rooms and three net lease properties with 8,575 square feet for sale. We expect the sale of a majority of these hotels to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2023. See Notes 5 and 13 for further information on our property sales.
Note 5. Management Agreements and Leases
As of September 30, 2022, we owned 242 hotels which were included in six operating agreements and 769 service oriented retail properties net leased to 178 tenants. We do not operate any of our properties.
Hotel agreements
Sonesta agreement. As of September 30, 2022, Sonesta managed 40 of our full-service hotels, 111 of our extended stay hotels, and 49 of our select service hotels pursuant to management agreements for all of the hotels. The hotels Sonesta managed for us comprised approximately 47.7 % of our total historical real estate investments.
On January 7, 2022, we and Sonesta amended and restated our management agreements effective January 1, 2022. We refer to our management agreements with Sonesta collectively as our Sonesta agreement. As of that date, we owned 261 hotels managed by Sonesta and we expected to sell 67 of those hotels, or the Sale Hotels. Among other things, the amendments to the agreements between us and Sonesta for 194 hotels we did not then expect to sell, 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.

(Unaudited)
• 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 December 31, 2022 (or, if earlier, until the applicable hotel has been sold) and the reserve established for the regular refurbishment of our hotels, or FF&E, reserve funding requirement was removed. The Sale Hotels are subject to a pooling agreement that combines the management agreements for the Sale Hotels for purposes of calculating gross revenues, hotel operating expenses, management and related fees and the owner’s priority return due to us. Our owner’s priority return will be reduced by the current owner’s priority return for a Sale Hotel once sold. We sold 61 of the Sale Hotels as of September 30, 2022 for an aggregate sales price of $ 517,568 , excluding closing costs . We recognized a net gain of $ 44,682 and the total annual owner’s priority return was reduced by $ 73,851 in connection with these sales. As of September 30, 2022, the total annual owner’s priority return for the remaining six Sale Hotels we then owned was $ 11,819 as of that date. Subsequent to September 30, 2022, we sold an additional one Sale Hotel for an aggregate sales price of $ 6,025 , excluding closing costs, and the total annual owner’s priority return was reduced by $ 902 in connection with this sale. As of November 1, 2022, we had agreements to sell an additional four Sale Hotels for an aggregate sales price of $ 25,170 and having a net book value of $ 22,996 and a total annual owner’s priority return of $ 5,408 as of September 30, 2022. These pending sales are subject to conditions; as a result, those sales may not occur, may be delayed or their terms may change. See Notes 6 and 10 for further information regarding our sales of hotels managed by Sonesta.
Our Sonesta agreement provides that we are paid an annual owner’s priority return if gross revenues of the hotels, after payment of hotel operating expenses and management and related fees (other than Sonesta’s incentive fee, if applicable), are sufficient to do so. The Sonesta agreement further provides that we are paid an additional return equal to 80 % of the operating profits, as defined therein, after reimbursement of owner or manager advances and with respect to the Retained Hotels, FF&E reserve escrows and Sonesta’s incentive fee, if applicable. Our Sonesta hotels generated net operating cash flow of $ 67,765 and $ 40,728 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and net operating cash flow of $ 148,217 and $ 28,531 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Pursuant to our Sonesta agreement, we incurred management, reservation and system fees and reimbursement costs for certain guest loyalty, marketing program and third-party reservation transmission fees of $ 31,136 and $ 26,640 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 87,615 and $ 59,962 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These fees and costs are included in hotel operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). In addition, we incurred procurement and construction supervision fees payable to Sonesta of $ 284 and $ 184 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 840 and $ 1,571 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which amounts have been capitalized in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related capital assets.
Our Sonesta agreement requires us to fund capital expenditures that we approve at the hotels. We incurred capital expenditures for hotels included in our Sonesta agreement in an aggregate amount of $ 56,297 and $ 76,035 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which resulted in increases in our contractual annual owner’s priority returns of $ 3,378 and $ 6,083 , respectively. We owed Sonesta $ 7,252 and $ 5,016 for capital expenditures and other reimbursements at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Sonesta owed us $ 21,213 and $ 4,592 in owner’s priority returns as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Amounts due from Sonesta are included in due from related persons and amounts owed to Sonesta are included in due to related persons in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of the hotels operated under the Retained Hotels management agreements require that 5 % of the hotel gross revenues be escrowed for future capital expenditures as FF&E reserves, subject to available cash flows after payment of the owner’s priority returns due to us. No FF&E escrow deposits were required during either of the three or nine months ended September 30, 2022 or 2021.
We are required to maintain working capital for each of our hotels managed by Sonesta and have advanced a fixed amount based on the number of rooms in each hotel to meet the cash needs for hotel operations. The sales of the hotels managed by Sonesta referenced above resulted in a return to us of working capital amounts we had previously advanced with respect to those hotels. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had advanced $ 49,218 and $ 56,697 , respectively, of initial working capital to Sonesta net of any working capital returned to us on termination of the applicable management agreements in connection with such sales. These amounts are included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

TA leases. TA is our largest tenant, leasing 29.2 % of our total historical real estate investments as of September 30, 2022. We lease to TA a total of 179 travel centers under five leases that expire between 2029 and 2035, subject to TA’s right to extend those leases, and require annual minimum rents of $ 246,110 as of September 30, 2022. In addition, TA is required to pay us previously deferred rent obligations in quarterly installments of $ 4,404 through January 31, 2023. TA paid $ 4,404 and $ 13,212 of deferred rent to us for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The remaining balance of previously deferred rents was $ 8,807 and $ 22,018 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
We recognized rental income from our TA leases of $ 64,011 and $ 62,116 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 188,280 and $ 186,357 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Rental income was reduced by $ 3,240 and $ 3,267 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 9,825 and $ 9,789 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, to record the deferred rent obligations under our TA leases and the estimated future payments to us by TA for the cost of removing underground storage tanks on a straight-line basis. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had receivables for current rent amounts owed to us by TA and straight-line rent adjustments of $ 33,874 and $ 48,168 , respectively. These amounts are included in due from related persons in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Our TA leases require TA to pay us percentage rent based upon increases in certain sales. We recognize percentage rent due under our TA leases as rental income when all contingencies are met. We recognized percentage rent of $ 1,861 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 under our TA leases. In addition, we had aggregate deferred percentage rent under our TA leases of $ 831 and $ 1,849 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 6,168 and $ 4,827 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Our TA leases do not require FF&E escrow deposits. However, TA is required to maintain the leased travel centers, including structural and non-structural components. Under our TA leases, TA may request that we fund capital improvements in return for increases in TA’s annual minimum rent equal to 8.5 % of the amounts funded. We did not fund any capital improvements to our properties that we leased to TA during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 or 2021.
See Notes 6 and 10 for further information regarding our relationship with TA.
Our other net lease agreements generally provide for minimum rent payments and in addition may include variable payments. Rental income from operating leases, including any payments derived by index or market-based indices, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term when we have determined that the collectability of substantially all of the lease payments is probable. Some of our leases have options to extend or terminate the lease exercisable at the option of our tenants, which are considered when determining the lease term. We recognized rental income from our net lease properties (excluding TA) of $ 33,787 and $ 36,608 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which included $ 1,395 and $ 2,361 , respectively, of adjustments to record scheduled rent changes under certain of our leases on a straight-line basis, and $ 102,669 and $ 99,594 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which included $ 4,296 and $ 6,702 , respectively, of adjustments to record scheduled rent changes under certain of our leases on a straight-line basis.
We continually review receivables related to rent, straight-line rent and property operating expense reimbursements and determine collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. The review includes an assessment of whether substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease are probable of collection. For leases that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as cash is received. We recognize all changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease as an adjustment to rental income. We recorded reserves for uncollectable amounts of $ 352 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and reduced our reserves for uncollectable amounts by $ 315 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 based on our assessment of collectability and cash received from certain tenants. We reduced our reserves for uncollectable amounts by $ 5,373 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and recorded reserves for uncollectable amounts of $ 588 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 based on our assessment of collectability and cash received from certain tenants. We had reserves for uncollectable rents of $ 7,755 and $ 15,519 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, 2022 , t he maturity date of our revolving credit facility was January 15, 2023, and, subject to the payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, we had the option to extend the maturity date of the facility for one six-month period. We can borrow, repay and reborrow funds available under our revolving credit facility until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity. We are required to pay interest on borrowings under our revolving credit facility at the rate of LIBOR plus a premium, which was 250 basis points per annum, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.50 %, as of September 30, 2022. We also pay a facility fee, which was 30 basis points per annum at September 30, 2022, on the total amount of lending commitments under our revolving credit facility. Both the interest rate premium and the facility fee are subject to adjustment based upon, among other things, changes to our credit ratings.

We and our lenders amended the credit agreement governing our revolving credit facility, or our credit agreement, in 2020. Among other things, the amendment waived all of the then existing financial covenants through the end of the then existing agreement term, or July 15, 2022. As a result of the amendment, among other things:
• we pledged certain equity interests of subsidiaries owning properties and provided first mortgage liens on 74 properties owned by the pledged subsidiaries;
• we had the ability to fund up to $ 250,000 of capital expenditures per year and up to $ 50,000 of certain other investments per year as defined in the credit agreement;

• we were generally required to apply the net cash proceeds from the disposition of assets, capital markets transactions and debt refinancings to repay outstanding amounts under the credit agreement, and then to other debt maturities;
• 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 credit agreement calculated using pro forma projections as defined in the credit 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; and
• 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 demonstrated 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 1.5 x to 1.0 x 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);

• the interest rate premium payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 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; and
• we are required to maintain minimum liquidity of at least $ 150,000 .
As a result of the decrease in the size of the revolving credit facility, we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $ 590 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which represented the write off of a portion of deferred financing fees.
On October 4, 2022, we further amended our credit agreement and exercised our remaining option to extend the maturity date of our revolving credit facility by six months to July 15, 2023. Pursuant to the amendment:

Our revolving credit facility continues to be secured by 73 properties with an undepreciated book value of $ 1,573,608 as of September 30, 2022 to secure our obligations under the credit agreement.
On June 15, 2022, we redeemed at par all of our outstanding 5.00 % senior notes due 2022 for a redemption price equal to the principal amount of $ 500,000 , plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result of the redemption, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $ 201 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which represented the unamortized discounts and issuance costs related to these notes.
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 The RMR Group LLC, or RMR, ceasing to act as our business manager. Our credit agreement and our unsecured senior notes indentures and their supplements also contain covenants, including those that restrict our ability to incur debts or to make distributions under certain circumstances and generally require us to maintain certain financial ratios. We believe we were in compliance with the terms and conditions of our credit agreement and our unsecured senior notes indentures and their supplements as of September 30, 2022.

We have two agreements with RMR to provide management services to us: (1) a business management agreement, which relates to our business generally, and (2) a property management agreement, which relates to our property level operations of our net lease portfolio, excluding properties leased to TA, the office building component of one of our hotels and major renovation or repositioning activities at our hotels that we may request RMR to manage from time to time.
We recognized net business management fees payable to RMR of $ 8,272 and $ 10,794 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 27,455 and $ 31,836 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Based on our common share total return, as defined in our business management agreement, as of each of September 30, 2022 and 2021, no incentive fees are included in the net business management fees we recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 or 2021. The actual amount of annual incentive fees for 2022, if any, will be based on our common share total return, as defined in our business management agreement, for the three-year period ending December 31, 2022, and will be payable in January 2023. We did not incur an incentive fee payable to RMR for the year ended December 31, 2021. We include business management fee amounts in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
We and RMR amended our business management agreement effective August 1, 2021 to provide that (i) for periods beginning on and after August 1, 2021, the MSCI U.S. REIT/Hotel & Resort REIT Index will be used to calculate benchmark returns per share for purposes of determining any incentive management fee payable by us to RMR, and (ii) for periods prior to August 1, 2021, the SNL U.S. REIT Hotel Index will continue to be used. This change of index was due to S&P Global, Inc. ceasing to publish the SNL U.S. REIT Hotel Index.
We recognized property management and construction supervision fees payable to RMR of $ 1,628 and $ 1,384 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 4,526 and $ 3,267 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Of those amounts, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, $ 975 and $ 1,002 , respectively, of property management fees were expensed to other operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and $ 653 and $ 382 , respectively, of construction and supervision fees were capitalized for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The amounts capitalized are included in building, improvements and equipment in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, $ 3,007 and $ 2,683 , respectively, of property management fees were expensed to other operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and $ 1,520 and $ 584 , respectively, of construction and supervision fees were capitalized and included in building, improvements and equipment in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts capitalized are being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related capital assets.

We are generally responsible for all our operating expenses, including certain expenses incurred or arranged by RMR on our behalf. We are generally not responsible for payment of RMR’s employment, office or administrative expenses incurred to provide management services to us, except for the employment and related expenses of RMR employees assigned to work exclusively or partly at our net lease properties, our share of the wages, benefits and other related costs of RMR's centralized accounting personnel, our share of RMR’s costs for providing our internal audit function, and as otherwise agreed. We reimbursed RMR $ 892 and $ 679 for these expenses and costs for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 2,331 and $ 2,016 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We included these amounts in other operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, as applicable, in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
On June 22, 2021, we and RMR amended our property management agreement to, among other things, provide for RMR's oversight of any major capital projects and repositioning activities at our hotels, including our hotels that are managed by Sonesta, as we may request from time to time. RMR will receive the same fee previously paid to Sonesta for these services, which is equal to 3 % of the cost of any such major capital project or repositioning activity.

Note 11. Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the IRC, and, as such, are generally not subject to federal and most state income taxation on our operating income provided we distribute our taxable income to our shareholders and meet certain organization and operating requirements. We are subject to income tax in Canada, Puerto Rico and certain states despite our qualification for taxation as a REIT. Further, we lease our managed hotels to our wholly owned TRSs that, unlike most of our subsidiaries, file a separate consolidated tax return and are subject to federal, state and foreign income taxes. Our consolidated income tax provision includes the income tax provision related to the operations of our TRSs and certain state and foreign income taxes incurred by us despite our qualification for taxation as a REIT.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized an income tax expense of $ 390 , which includes $ 318 of state tax expense and $ 72 of foreign tax expense. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized an income tax benefit of $ 55 , which includes $ 194 of state tax benefit and $ 139 of foreign tax expense.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized an income tax expense of $ 1,558 , which includes $ 1,153 of state tax expense and $ 405 of foreign tax expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized an income tax expense of $ 1,009 , which includes $ 698 of state tax expense and $ 309 of foreign tax expense.
