Significantly outperforming industry, segment and competitive set 1,2 3 • STAY’s 2020 RevPAR and occupancy compared to 2019 have held up significantly better than the industry and other mid-priced extended stay hotels since the pandemic began in the United States in March 20201,2 • STAY’s RevPAR Index3, which began to improve before COVID-19, has continued at very high levels months into the industry recovery 1 Total industry RevPAR numbers per STR, Inc.

Neither STR nor Highland endorse the Company, nor any other operator of hotels, and the data provided by each such company should not be viewed as investment advice or as a recommendation to take a particular course of action. 2 Industry RevPAR numbers do not reflect hotel closures; industry revenue decline is steeper than RevPAR. 4 3 See Appendix for RevPAR Index definition and disclosure.


 
Well positioned in a challenging environment ✓ System-wide occupancy running close to FY 2019 levels in recent months ✓ Majority of STAY’s guests are driving to hotels; ~75% of locations are suburban ✓ STAY’s guests average length of stay is ~30 nights vs ~2 nights for overall industry ✓ RevPAR levels since June generate positive cash flow, even with significant capital investments ✓ Full kitchen and refrigerator in room attract guests concerned about COVID- 19 exposure while traveling or with limited dining out options ✓ Very limited urban, group and in-bound international exposure; no hotels were closed during pandemic 5

REVPAR INDEX RevPAR Index is stated as a percentage and calculated by comparing RevPAR for comparable system-wide hotels to the aggregate RevPAR of a group of competing hotels generally in the same geographic market. As such, the RevPAR Index is only a measure of RevPAR relative to certain competing hotels and not a measure of our absolute RevPAR or profitability. We subscribe to STR, Inc. ("STR"), an independent third-party service, which collects and compiles the data used to calculate RevPAR Index. We select the competing hotels included in the RevPAR Index calculation subject to STR's guidelines. The competing hotels included in STR guidelines will generally include certain hotels that are not considered part of the extended stay lodging segment of the hospitality industry and, instead, fall within the category of short-term stay hotels. STR does not endorse the Company, or any other company or operator of hotels, and STR data should not be viewed as investment advice or as a recommendation to take a particular course of action. 10
