Reference is made to the report on Schedule 13D originally filed by the parties identified in Item 2 below with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 2006 (the “Schedule 13D”). Pursuant to this Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D (the “Amendment”), the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as provided below.

ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.

This Amendment amends the Schedule 13D relating to the Class A Membership Interests, no par value (the “Class A Interests’) of Summit Hotel Properties, LLC (the “Issuer”), with a principal executive office located at 2701 South Minnesota Avenue, Suite 6, Sioux Falls, South Dakota 57105.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

Item 2 is hereby amended and restated as follows:

This Amendment is being filed by Steven T. Kirby, an individual, Bluestem Capital Company, LLC, a South Dakota limited liability company, and Bellevue Partners, LLC, a South Dakota limited liability company (the “Filers”). In connection with the merger of the Issuer with and into Summit Hotel OP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Summit OP”), on February 14, 2011, all of the Class A Interests of the Issuer held of record or beneficially owned by the Filers were exchanged for limited partnership units of Summit OP. As a result, the Filers no longer beneficially own any Class A Interests of the Issuer, and therefore, the Filers are no longer reporting persons.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

Item 3 is amended and restated as follows:

The Filers identified in Item 2 are no longer reporting persons.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Item 4 is amended and restated as follows:

The Filers identified in Item 2 are no longer reporting persons.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

Item 5 is amended and restated as follows:

The Filers identified in Item 2 are no longer reporting persons.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

None.

ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

1.	An agreement relating to the filing of a joint statement as required by Rule 13d-1(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is filed herewith as Exhibit A.

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
