Sunstone Corporate Profile –
We have…
…a significant opportunity to improve valuation by removing
overhang issues and unlocking our portfolio’s intrinsic value.
Management transition
we will build investor confidence by completing
our leadership transition and consistently executing on our business plan
Improving operations
we believe our recently completed or in-process
renovations combined with our redefined hotel operating models will produce
meaningful RevPAR index gains, margin expansion and cash flow growth
Credit enhancement
by continuing to improve our credit statistics and
reducing our leverage, we will reduce corporate risk and provide
greater
flexibility
Dividend reintroduction
improved cash flow from both internal and
external growth initiatives is likely to result in a reintroduction of our common
dividend beginning in 2011


11
Sunstone Portfolio –
We expect…
…our portfolio to generate significant internal growth over
the next several years, driven by:
Cyclical recovery
we are in the early stages of what we believe will be a
strong and prolonged recovery. PKF expects a 6 -
7% RevPAR CAGR (2010
2015)
Renovations
we expect our recently completed and in-process
renovations will result in RevPAR index gains and meaningful cash flow
growth
Asset management
our redefined hotel operating model drove significant
margin expansion as compared to prior trough. We expect margins to
continue to benefit from new efficiencies resulting in margin expansion over
prior peak


12
Sunstone Portfolio –
We are…
Rebranding Doubletree Times Square to Hilton Suites Times Square
Capitalize on the strength of a higher-rated brand with international draw
Control of all Times Square Hilton branded product
Conversion expected following a renovation of the hotel (anticipated completion in Q2 2012)
Complexed Times Square Hotels under Highgate management
Maximize RevPAR and minimize overhead costs across our combined 920 rooms within the
Times Square sub-market
…enhancing the value of our portfolio.


13

We have…
…completed, or are about to complete, significant renovations
throughout our portfolio.
