On December 9, 2011, Supertel Hospitality, Inc.

The Amendment also, among other things:
 
·  
extends the maturity date of all loans to December 7, 2012, and provides for the further extension of the maturity dates to June 30, 2013 in the event the purchase from the Company of 2,000,000 shares of Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company at a price of $20 million by Real Estate Strategies L.P. (as more fully described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 16, 2011, the “Investment”) is completed prior to December 7, 2012;
 
·  
provides for $12.5 million of availability under the revolving credit facility through June 30, 2012, after which the loans available to the Company through the revolving credit facility and term loans may not exceed the lesser of (a) an amount equal to 70% of the total appraised value of the hotels securing the credit facilities and (b) an amount that would result in a loan-specific debt service coverage ratio of less than 1.05x from July 1, 2012 through December 30, 2012 and 1.20x from December 31, 2012 through the maturity of the credit facilities;
 
·  
requires a $500,000 reduction in the availability of the revolving credit facility by September 30, 2012 and an additional $500,000 reduction by December 31, 2012;
 
·  
sets the interest rate on the revolving credit facility at 5.95% per annum and the interest rate on the term loans at 6.00% per annum;
 
·  
requires monthly principal and interest payments based on a 20-year amortization schedule for the new $7.5 million term loan;
 
·  
requires the Company to grant the Lender a second priority mortgage in its Days Inn hotel located in Bossier City, Louisiana and pay off the first priority mortgage upon completion of the Investment;
 
·  
adds a covenant requiring maintenance of a consolidated leverage ratio, tested quarterly, that does not exceed 4.25x through the maturity of the credit facilities; and
 
·  
provides for maintenance of (a) a consolidated debt service coverage ratio, tested quarterly, of at least 0.9x through June 29, 2012 and 1.05x from June 30, 2012 through the maturity of the credit facilities and (b) a loan-specific debt service coverage ratio, tested quarterly, of at least 0.9x through June 29, 2012, 1.05x from June 30, 2012 through December 30, 2012 and 1.20x from December 31, 2012 through the maturity of the credit facilities.
