Respectfully submitted, Shamrock Capital LLC Robert P Hill Christopher M. Keegan 322 N Forest Blvd, Lake Mary, FL 32746 Tel.

The proposed WoodSpring will be positioned as an economy- priced extended-stay hotel. Our research indicates that the 124-room proposed design would be suitable for this market. Client and Intended User The client and intended user of this feasibility study is Mountain View Hospitality LLC. Mr. David Babatope, Member, authorized the preparation of this feasibility study by signing a letter of proposal dated October 17, 2016. Any use of this report by third parties is unauthorized without the written consent of the Client and Shamrock Capital LLC. Client’s Intended Use Financial analysis and decision making as they pertain to the development of the subject property and to provide supporting documentation for financing. Date of Report November 28, 2016 Executive Summary (cont’d) Economy Conyers is experiencing a period of moderate economic expansion whereby several film and television production companies like Warner Brothers’ Bonanza Productions and Twentieth Century Fox all located permanent production facilities calling Rockdale County and the City of Conyers home. These production companies alone lease more than 300,000 sf of office space and sound stages per month and contract with over 75 local businesses for goods and services. They employ over 300 people, with about 20 percent of their full-time employees coming from Rockdale County. The metro area is supported by a number of employers currently relocating their operations to the city/county to take advantage of the significant tax incentives and thus providing a solid foundation for the local economy. Immediately east and abutting the city's downtown core is the Georgia International Horse Park. The park's 1,400 acres can accommodate other entertainment and special event venues such as concerts and outdoor festivals, providing both employment and revenue to the City of Conyers. Market Area Land uses in the proposed subject’s immediate market area include light industrial, warehousing and distribution facilities; Fieldstone Plaza Shopping Center; quick-service food venues including Burger King, Dunkin’ Donuts, Hardee’s, McDonald’s and Wendy’s; diners and casual dining venues including Los Bravos, Sudo Bar & Grill, Third Base Grill, Tokyo Hibachi Express, and Waffle House; four gas station/convenience stores; a medical clinic and animal hospital; two grocery stores; an auto dealership and auto and truck accessory and service centers. Executive Summary (cont’d) Local Lodging Trends The projection of market demand by segment in consideration of overall market supply indicates that market occupancy is expected to end Fiscal 2017 up 3.0% followed by a net decrease of -10.2% in Fiscal 2018 with the opening of the subject WoodSpring Suites. In Fiscal 2019, competitive occupancy is forecast to increase by 2.7% to a stabilized level of 68.7%. Occupancy Projection Using projections for the subject’s demand by segment and considering overall market supply and demand forecasts, the proposed subject’s Year 1 occupancy rate is projected to be 79.1% at a penetration rate of 120%. In Year 2, the proposed subject’s occupancy and penetration rates are forecast to increase to a stabilized level of 86.0% and 125%, respectively. Revenue Projection The competitive set offered estimated average daily rates in the previous 12 months that ranged from a low of $35.00 to a high of $75.00, and averaged $46.41 per occupied room night. Considering the subject will be a new-construction, interior- corridor, purpose-built, economy extended-stay hotel with a fresh design and branding as a WoodSpring Suites, we estimate, if the subject existed in today’s market, it would command an ADR of $38.83, or an AWR of $271.84. Given that the subject will not enter the market until early 2018, and considering the historical ADR growth rates in the market, we forecast a Year 1 ADR and AWR of $40.00 and $280.00, respectively, with annual increases of 3.0% per year throughout the projection period. Executive Summary (cont’d) Revenue Projection (cont’d) Noting the subject will generate income from extra fees and services, including kitchen packages, guest laundry, WiFi and requested room cleanings, we have projected net rentals and other income in the amount of $1.50 per occupied room night for a Year 1 combined revenue of $41.50 per room night or $290.50 per week. NOI Projection Total revenue and expenses for Year 1 are projected at $1,460,884 and $858,375, respectively, resulting in a Year 1 Net Operating Income estimated at $602,509, or 42.5% or total revenue. Reversion Estimate The reversion price has been estimated using a Terminal Capitalization Rate of 9.5% as follows: Net Operating Income at Year 8 $900,410 Out-Going Capitalization Rate ÷ 9.50% Indicated Resale Price $9,478,001 Sale Costs @ 3.0% - $284,340 Net Proceeds from Sale $9,193,661 IRR Projection On the basis of the following cash flow projections, including the above reversion price after sale costs, the subject’s implied free-and-clear IRR equals 10.5%, which meets the risk-adjusted expectations of investors based on average expected market returns of 10.7% for similar hotel investments. Year 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ($7,700,000) $602,509 $693,240 $717,322 $742,173 $767,816 $792,226 $809,031 $8,545,695 ($7,700,000) $602,509 $693,240 $717,322 $742,173 $767,816 $792,226 $9,354,726 Note: Figures may not add due to rounding.

Data by ChainXY, STI: Market Outlook and Shopping Center Database, Inc. Information is presented without verification or warranty. Page 1 5000 Murfreesboro Road 5000 Murfreesboro Road | La Vergne TN Void Analysis Overview The match scoring algorithm is a proprietary index created by SiteSeer Technologies and provides the user with a visual indicator of how well one’s site trade area matches the typical site location profile of each tenant chain. The match score ranges from 0-100 with a score of zero indicating that the chain has never located in a trade area similar to yours and a score of 100 indicating that the chain always locates in a trade area like yours. The algorithm looks at both (a) the percentage of times each chain locates in a trade area similar to yours, and (b) how far each site metric is from the chain’s median site profile. The site profile is determined by the types of communities and trade areas where the tenant typically locates; site characteristics such as whether the chain typically locates in primary or secondary retail areas, on major arteries, or in areas of high business traffic; and trade area consumer demographics and behavior. The cotenant column indicates how often each tenant co-locates with your site’s existing anchors or major tenants. For example, if the tenant shown on the report “ABC Retail” has a cotenant result of 25% and your anchor is Target, 25% of ABC Retail locations are co-located with Target.

  • Indexing Hotel Brand Reputation
    CORNELL CENTER FOR HOSPITALITY RESEARCH Indexing Hotel Brand Reputation by Christopher K. Anderson and Saram Han EXECUTIVE SUMMARY sing monthly online reputation data from 2016 through to the first quarter of 2018, we index major hotel brands in the United States and Canada. This analysis of online reputation for branded properties yields three major conclusions: (1) theU variation in reputation across brands is four times larger than the variation across chain scales; (2) online reputation is mainly a function of brand and sub brand rather than segment or hotel location; and (3) variability in reputation across hotels within a brand is greater than the variability in reputation in hotels across brands. These three points indicate the changing impact of brand upon hotel choice, considering that the variance in reputation within a brand and online reputation scores—as presented at OTAs or meta-reputation sites like TripAdvisor or Google—may outweigh the traditional quality signals provided by brands.
