had authorized the Company to repurchase up to $150 million of its common
stock during 2008. During the first quarter of 2008, the Company

authorized by its Board of Directors to repurchase up to an additional
$138.2 million of its common stock before expiration of the repurchase
program on December 31, 2008.
Balance Sheet/Liquidity Update
As of March 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $69.7 million of
cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash). As of March 31,
2008, the Company had no outstanding indebtedness under its $200 million
credit facility, and had $10.8 million in outstanding irrevocable letters
of credit backed by the credit facility, leaving, as of that date, $189.2

During the first quarter of 2008, the Company invested $31.8 million in
capital projects. Significant projects completed in the first quarter
include a complete renovation of all guestrooms and the ballroom at the
Marriott Boston Long Wharf, a renovation of the atrium of the Embassy
Suites La Jolla; renovations of the lobby, grounds and certain meeting
rooms at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza and the addition of a new spa
facility at the Renaissance Orlando.
Management Succession
On March 14, 2008, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
had formed a search committee to conduct a search for a new president and
chief executive officer, replacing Steven R. Goldman, who resigned in the
first quarter.
Outlook
The Company is providing guidance at this time but does not undertake
to make updates for any developments in its business. Achievement of the
anticipated results is subject to risks and uncertainties, including those
disclosed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Company has provided guidance for the second quarter of
2008 as well as full year 2008. The Company's guidance does not take into
account any additional hotel acquisitions, dispositions, stock repurchases
or financings during 2008. As the level of demand for U.S. lodging is
highly correlated to the overall U.S. economy, changes in U.S. economic
performance could have a material effect on the Company's results of
operations.
Second Quarter 2008 Outlook
For the second quarter 2008, the Company expects total portfolio RevPAR
to increase approximately 4.0% to 6.0% over the second quarter of 2007 and
Comparable RevPAR, excluding two "Non-comparable" hotels (the
Renaissance Orlando and the Renaissance Baltimore), to increase
approximately 4.0% to 6.0% over the second quarter of 2007 (see page 7 for
an explanation of measures relating to comparability). Additionally, for
the second quarter of 2008:
-- Income available to common stockholders is expected to be approximately
$22.0 million to $24.8 million;
-- Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $86.5 million to
$89.3 million;
-- Adjusted FFO available to common stockholders is expected to be
approximately $54.9 million to $57.7 million;

approximately 50 - 100 basis points compared to the second quarter of
2007; and
-- Comparable hotel operating profit margins are expected to increase
approximately 50 - 100 basis points from the second quarter of 2007.
Full Year 2008 Outlook

increase approximately 2.0% to 5.0% over the full year 2007 and Comparable
RevPAR, excluding two "Non-comparable" hotels (the Renaissance
Orlando and the Renaissance Baltimore), to increase approximately 2.0% to
5.0% over the full year 2007. Additionally, for the full year 2008:

$50.3 million to $63.8 million;

compared to the prior year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present the following non-GAAP financial measures that we believe
are useful to investors as key measures of our operating performance: (1)
Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, or
EBITDA; (2) Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below); (3) Funds From Operations,
or FFO; (4) Adjusted FFO (as defined below); and (5) Hotel Operating
Income and Hotel Operating Profit Margin for the purpose of our operating
margins.
EBITDA represents income (loss) available to common stockholders before
minority interest excluding: (1) preferred stock dividends; (2) interest
expense (including prepayment penalties, if any); (3) provision for income
taxes, including income taxes applicable to sale of assets; and (4)
depreciation and amortization. In addition, we have presented Adjusted
EBITDA, which excludes: (1) the impact of any gain or loss from asset
sales; (2) impairment charges; and (3) other adjustments we have
identified in this release. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are
useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because these
measures help investors evaluate and compare the results of our operations
from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure
(primarily interest expense and preferred stock dividends) and our asset
base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results.
We also use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures in determining the
value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions. A reconciliation of income
(loss) available to common stockholders to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is
set forth on pages 10 and 11. A reconciliation and the components of Hotel
Operating Income and Hotel Operating Profit Margin are set forth on page
12. We believe Hotel Operating Income and Hotel Operating Profit Margin
are also useful to investors in evaluating our property level operating
performance.
We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, an industry trade
group. The Board of Governors of NAREIT in its March 1995 White Paper (as
clarified in November 1999 and April 2002) defines FFO to mean net income
(loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains and losses from
sales of property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization
(excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), and after adjustment
for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We also present
Adjusted FFO, which excludes prepayment penalties, written-off deferred
financing costs, impairment losses and other adjustments we have
identified in this release. We believe that the presentation of FFO and
Adjusted FFO provide useful information to investors regarding our
operating performance because they are measures of our operations without
regard to specified non-cash items such as real estate depreciation and
amortization, gain or loss on sale of assets and certain other items which
we believe are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel
properties. We believe that these items are more representative of our
asset base and our acquisition and disposition activities than our ongoing
operations. We also use FFO as one measure in determining our results
after taking into account the impact of our capital structure. A
reconciliation of income available to common stockholders to FFO and
Adjusted FFO is set forth on pages 10 and 11.
We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our
definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, Adjusted FFO, hotel operating
income and hotel operating profit margin may not be comparable to similar
measures disclosed by other companies, because not all companies calculate
these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO,
Adjusted FFO, hotel operating income and hotel operating profit margin
should not be considered as an alternative measure of our net income
(loss), operating performance, cash flow or liquidity. EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA, FFO, Adjusted FFO, hotel operating income and hotel operating
profit margin may include funds that may not be available for our
discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for
capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and
uncertainties. Although we believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO,
Adjusted FFO, hotel operating income and hotel operating profit margin can
enhance an investor's understanding of our results of operations, these
non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed individually, are not necessarily
a better indicator of any trend as compared to GAAP measures such as net
income (loss) or cash flow from operations. In addition, you should be
aware that adverse economic and market conditions may harm our cash flow.
Comparable Portfolio Information
The Company's definition of "Comparable Portfolio" includes
those hotels owned as of the reporting date which have not experienced
material and prolonged business interruption due to renovations,
re-branding or property damage during either the calendar year presented
or the preceding calendar year. For the second quarter and full year 2008,
the Comparable Portfolio is expected to exclude the Renaissance Orlando
and the Renaissance Baltimore. We refer to these excluded hotels as
"Non-comparable" hotels. Also, the revenue and expense items
associated with the Company's two commercial laundry facilities and any
guaranty payments have been shown below the hotel operating income line in
presenting comparable hotel operating margins. Management believes the
definition of Comparable Portfolio as well as the calculation of hotel
operating income results in a more accurate presentation of the trends in
RevPAR and comparable hotel operating margins of the Company's stabilized
portfolio of hotels.
