Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed by Braemar Hotels & Resorts Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2022 (the “Original Filing”) amends the statements on page 66 in the Original Filing under “Counting of Votes” and page 52 in the Original Filing under “Vote Required for Approval” to clarify that abstentions will not be considered “votes cast” and therefore will not be included in vote totals and will not affect the outcome of the vote for Proposal 4 (the “Proposal”). The Original Filing stated that the Proposal abstentions will be treated as “votes cast” and therefore will be included in vote totals and will affect the outcome of the vote for the Proposal and that abstentions would have the same effect as a vote “against” the Proposal. This Amendment is being filed to reflect the applicable voting standard for, and impact of abstentions on, the Proposal.
This Amendment should be read together with the matters set forth in the Original Filing. Other than as set forth above, all other items of the Original Filing are incorporated herein by reference without change.
