DoubleTree Portfolio
On March 8, 2022, the Company began the marketing process to sell its DoubleTree Portfolio. As of May 27, 2022, the Company has received multiple offers and expects the transaction to close in the third quarter of 2022. The Company will use the proceeds from the sale to pay down the outstanding debt on the DT Portfolio with the remaining proceeds used to make principal paydowns on existing third party debt.
NHT Capitalization Updates
NHT announced that a subsidiary of NHT has, between January 1, 2022, and March 31, 2022, issued convertible notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of US$27.48 million (the "Liquidity Transactions") to affiliates of NHT's external advisor. NHT repaid $4.55 million of principal to affiliates in the first quarter of 2022.
The Notes bear interest at varying rates and are repayable in membership interests ("Membership Interests") of NHT's operating subsidiary, NHT Operating Partnership, LLC (the "OP"), which are redeemable for trust units of NHT ("Trust Units") at the option of NHT in its sole discretion. The approval of the TSX Venture Exchange will be required prior to any conversion of the Membership Interests into Trust Units. NHT used the proceeds of the Liquidity Transactions for general working capital purposes. Management believes the Liquidity Transactions will further strengthen NHT's balance sheet and liquidity profile to better position itself as the hospitality industry continues to rebound from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The fair market value of each Note does not exceed and did not exceed at the time of issuance of such Note 25% of NHT's market capitalization.
Each of the Liquidity Transactions constituted a related party transaction as defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ? Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Liquidity Transactions were completed in reliance on (i) an available exemption from the formal valuation requirement of MI 61-101 provided in paragraph (a) of Section 5.5 of MI 61-101 and (ii) an available exemption from the minority shareholder requirement of MI 61-101 provided in paragraph (a) of Section 5.7(1) of MI 61-101.
