Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 5, 2012, Philadelphia Hotel Associates LP and other affiliates of MHI Hospitality Corporation (“MHI” or the “Company”), entered into a Loan Agreement and other loan documents to secure a new $30.0 million mortgage (the “Mortgage Loan”) on the Hilton Philadelphia Airport hotel property (the “Hotel”) with TD Bank, N.A.

Pursuant to the loan documents:

 

   

the maturity date of the Mortgage Loan is August 30, 2014 with an extension option until March 1, 2017, contingent upon the extension or acceptable replacement of the Hilton Worldwide license agreement for the Hotel; and

 

   

the Mortgage Loan carries a floating interest rate of the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 3.0%, with a 50 basis point floor on LIBOR, and amortizes on a 25 year schedule.

MHI used proceeds of the Mortgage Loan to extinguish the indebtedness under the Company’s existing credit facility, to prepay a portion of the Company’s indebtedness under its Note Agreement with Essex Equity High Income Joint Investment Vehicle, LLC, and for working capital purposes. With this transaction, the Company’s syndicated credit facility is now terminated and the Company’s Crowne Plaza Tampa Westshore hotel is released therefrom and unencumbered.
