(3)Amortizes in equal quarterly installments of $1.6 million. In addition to scheduled amortization, subject to certain exceptions, annual mandatory prepayments of up to 50% of Excess Cash Flow, as defined, may be required commencing with the year ending December 31, 2020. Annual mandatory prepayments for a given fiscal year are due during the first quarter of the following fiscal year.

ESH REIT’s credit agreement, as may be amended and supplemented from time to time, provides for senior secured credit facilities (collectively, the “ESH REIT Credit Facilities”) which consist of a $630.9 million senior secured term loan facility (the “ESH REIT Term Facility”) and a $350.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility”). Subject to the satisfaction of certain criteria, borrowings under the ESH REIT Credit Facilities may be increased by an amount of up to $600.0 million, plus additional amounts, so long as, after giving effect to the incurrence of such incremental facility and the application of proceeds thereof, ESH REIT’s pro-forma senior loan-to-value ratio is less than or equal to 45%.

ESH REIT Term Facility—The ESH REIT Term Facility bears interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus 1.75% for any period during which ESH REIT maintains a public corporate family rating better than or equal to BB (with a stable or better outlook) from S&P and Ba3 (with a stable or better outlook) from Moody’s (a “Level 1 Period”) or LIBOR plus 2.00% for any period other than a Level 1 Period; or (ii) a base rate (determined by reference to the highest of (A) the prime lending rate, (B) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (C) the one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.00%), plus 0.75% during a Level 1 Period or 1.00% for any period other than a Level 1 Period. ESH REIT has the option to prepay outstanding loans under the ESH REIT Term Facility without penalty.

ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility—Borrowings under the ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a spread that ranges from 1.50% to 2.00% based on ESH REIT’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, as defined, or (ii) a base rate (determined by reference to the highest of (A) the prime lending rate, (B) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or (C) the one-month adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.00%) plus a spread that ranges from 0.50% to 1.00% based on ESH REIT’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, as defined. ESH REIT incurs a fee of 0.30% or 0.175% on the unutilized revolver balance. ESH REIT is also required to pay customary letter of credit fees and agency fees. The ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility provides for the issuance of up to $50.0 million of letters of credit. As of June 30, 2020, ESH REIT had no letters of credit outstanding and no available borrowing capacity under the facility.

In March 2020, ESH REIT borrowed the full available borrowing capacity of $350.0 million under the ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility as a precautionary measure in order to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in business markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. These proceeds may in the future be used for working capital, general corporate or other purposes permitted under the agreement.

The ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a springing financial covenant whereby the senior loan-to-value ratio may not exceed 45% when the aggregate principal amount of borrowings and letters of credit under the ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility, excluding up to $30.0 million of letters of credit, is equal to or greater than 35% of the aggregate available principal amount of the ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility on the applicable fiscal quarter end date.

In May 2015 and March 2016, ESH REIT issued $500.0 million and $800.0 million, respectively, of its 5.25% senior notes due in May 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) under an indenture with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee, in private placements pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. ESH REIT may redeem the 2025 Notes at any time on or after May 1, 2020, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 102.625% of the principal amount, declining annually to 100% of the principal amount from May 1, 2023 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to May 1, 2020, ESH REIT may redeem the 2025 Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a “make-whole” premium, as defined, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon a Change of Control, as defined, holders of the 2025 Notes have the right to require ESH REIT to redeem the 2025 Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

In September 2019, ESH REIT issued $750.0 million of its 4.625% senior notes due in 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) under an indenture with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee, at a price equal to 100% of par value in a private placement pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. ESH REIT may redeem the 2027 Notes at any time on or after October 1, 2022, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 102.313% of the principal amount, declining annually to 100% of the principal amount from October 1, 2024 and thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to October 1, 2022, ESH REIT may redeem the 2027 Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a “make-whole” premium, as defined, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Prior to October 1, 2022, subject to certain conditions, ESH REIT may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings, provided 65% of the original amount of the principal remains outstanding after the occurrence of each such redemption. Upon a Change of Control, as defined, holders of the 2027 Notes have the right to require ESH REIT to redeem the 2027 Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Corporation’s revolving credit facility, as may be amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Corporation Revolving Credit Facility”), provides for the issuance of up to $50.0 million of letters of credit as well as borrowing on same day notice, referred to as swingline loans, in an amount of up to $20.0 million. Borrowings under the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus 2.25% or (ii) a base rate (determined by reference to the highest of (A) the prime lending rate, (B) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (C) the one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00%) plus 1.25%. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal, the Corporation incurs a fee of 0.30% or 0.175% on the unutilized revolver balance, based on the amount outstanding under the facility. As of June 30, 2020, the Corporation had one letter of credit outstanding of $0.2 million and no available borrowing capacity under the facility.

In March 2020, the Company borrowed $49.8 million under the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility as a precautionary measure in order to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of uncertainty in business markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The proceeds may in the future be used for working capital, general corporate or other purposes permitted under the agreement.

Obligations under the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain existing and future material domestic subsidiaries of the Corporation, excluding ESH REIT and its subsidiaries and subject to customary exceptions. The facility is secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and the guarantors. If obligations are outstanding under the facility during any fiscal quarter, the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility requires that the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined, calculated as of the end of such fiscal quarter for any consecutive four quarter period, be less than or equal to 8.75 to 1.00 (the "Leverage Covenant," subject to the Four Quarter Suspension Period, as defined below). The facility is also subject to a springing financial covenant whereby the senior loan-to-value ratio may not exceed 45% when the aggregate principal amount of borrowings and letters of credit under the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility, excluding up to $30.0 million of letters of credit, is equal to or greater than 25% of the aggregate available principal amount of the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility on the applicable fiscal quarter end date.

In May 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility and obtained a suspension of the Leverage Covenant from the beginning of the second quarter of 2020 through the end of the first quarter of 2021 (the “Four Quarter Suspension Period”). For the second quarter of 2021 through the fourth quarter of 2021, the leverage covenant calculation has been modified to use annualized EBITDA, as opposed to trailing twelve-month EBITDA. Additionally, the amendment provides for the Corporation to borrow up to $150.0 million from ESH REIT through an intercompany loan facility. Throughout the Four Quarter Suspension Period, the Company has agreed to maintain minimum liquidity of $150.0 million and to limit share repurchases and dividend payments made by the Corporation.

The ESH REIT Credit Facilities, the 2027 Notes, the 2025 Notes, the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility and certain intercompany loan facilities contain a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit the Corporation’s or ESH REIT’s ability and the ability of their respective subsidiaries to engage in certain transactions. In addition, the ESH REIT Revolving Credit Facility and the Corporation Revolving Credit Facility contain financial covenants that, subject to certain conditions, require compliance with certain senior loan-to-value and consolidated leverage ratios. The agreements governing the Corporation’s and ESH REIT’s indebtedness also contain certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including, but not limited to, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness and, in the case of the ESH REIT Credit Facilities and certain intercompany loan facilities, certain material operating leases and management agreements. As of June 30, 2020, the Corporation and ESH REIT were in compliance with all covenants under their respective debt agreements.

The Company’s continued compliance with these covenants could be impacted by current or future economic conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company's failure to maintain compliance with its debt covenants or to pay debt obligations as they become due would give rise to default under one or more agreements governing the Company's indebtedness, and could entitle the lenders under the defaulted agreements to accelerate the maturity of the amounts thereunder, which could raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company may seek additional covenant waivers or amendments, though there is no certainty that it would be successful in such efforts.

Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock—The Corporation has authorized 350.0 million shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value, of which 708 and 7,130 shares of mandatorily redeemable voting preferred stock were issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Dividends on these mandatorily redeemable voting preferred shares are payable quarterly in arrears at a rate of 8.0% per year. With respect to dividend, distribution and liquidation rights, the 8.0% voting preferred stock ranks senior to the Corporation’s common stock. Holders of the 8.0% voting preferred stock have the right to require the Corporation to redeem in cash the 8.0% voting preferred stock at $1,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid dividends. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, 6,422 shares of the 8.0% mandatorily redeemable voting preferred stock were redeemed for $6.4 million. On November 15, 2020, the Corporation shall mandatorily redeem all of the outstanding 8.0% voting preferred stock at $1,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid dividends.

Fair Value of Debt and Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock—As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt was $3.0 billion and $2.7 billion, respectively, and the estimated fair value of the Corporation’s 8.0% mandatorily redeemable preferred stock was $0.7 million and $7.1 million, respectively. Estimated fair values are determined by comparing current borrowing rates and risk spreads offered in the market (Level 2 fair value measures) or quoted market prices (Level 1 fair value measures), when available, to the stated interest rates and spreads on the Company’s debt and the Corporation’s 8.0% mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the estimated fair value of each of the Corporation and ESH REIT revolving credit facilities is equal to its carrying value due to its short-term nature and frequent settlement.
