NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization and Description of Business

Highland Hospitality Corporation (the “Company”) is a self-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated in Maryland in July 2003 to own upscale full-service, premium limited-service, and extended stay properties located in major convention, business, resort and airport markets in the United States and all-inclusive resort properties in certain beachfront destinations outside the United States. The Company commenced operations on December 19, 2003 when it completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) and concurrently consummated the acquisition of three hotel properties (“initial properties”).

The IPO consisted of the sale of 30,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $10 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $300 million and net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses) of approximately $277 million. Concurrent with the IPO, the Company sold in private placement transactions an aggregate of 4,550,000 shares of common stock at a price per share equal to the IPO price, less an amount equal to the underwriting discount of $0.70 per share. The proceeds generated from the private placement transactions were approximately $42.3 million. On December 26, 2003, the Company sold an additional 4,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $9.30 per share, net of the underwriting discount, as a result of the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, resulting in additional net proceeds of approximately $41.9 million. The total net proceeds generated from the IPO, the private placement transactions, and the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option was approximately $361.2 million.

The Company contributed all of the net proceeds from the IPO, the private placement transactions, and the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to Highland Hospitality, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), in exchange for an approximate 98% general and limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership used approximately $61.9 million of the net proceeds from the Company, along with 967,211 units of limited partner interest, to acquire all of the equity interests in the entities that own or lease the initial properties.

On December 29, 2003, December 30, 2003, January 8, 2004, January 12, 2004, and May 10, 2004, the Operating Partnership completed the acquisition of five additional hotel properties for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $194.3 million, including the assumption of mortgage debt of $17 million. As of June 30, 2004, the Company owned eight hotel properties.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership. For the Company to qualify as a REIT, it cannot operate hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership, which is owned approximately 98% by the Company and approximately 2% by other limited partners, leases its hotels to subsidiaries of HHC TRS Holding Corporation (collectively, “HHC TRS”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. HHC TRS then engages hotel management companies to operate the hotels under management contracts. HHC TRS is treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes.
