ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
Contribution Agreement – Hilton Garden Charlotte North – Charlotte, North Carolina
As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Lodging Fund REIT III, Inc. (the “Company”) on March 25, 2022, the Company, through its operating partnership subsidiary Lodging Fund REIT III OP, LP (the “Operating Partnership”), entered into a Legendary Equity Preservation UPREIT (Pat. Pend.) Contribution Agreement with Smith/Curry Hotel Group HH-Harris, LLC (the “Charlotte HGI Contributor”), dated as of March 21, 2022 (as amended, the “Charlotte HGI Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which the Contributor agreed to contribute the 112-room Hilton Garden Charlotte North hotel in Charlotte, North Carolina (the “Charlotte HGI”) to the Operating Partnership. The Contributor is not affiliated with the Company or Legendary Capital REIT III, LLC (the “Advisor”), the Company’s external advisor. The aggregate contractual consideration under the Charlotte HGI Contribution Agreement is $15,000,000 plus closing costs, subject to adjustment as provided in the Charlotte HGI Contribution Agreement. The consideration consists of the payoff of the existing loan secured by the Charlotte HGI in the amount of $8.7 million, refinanced with a new loan by subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership with Western Alliance Bank (the “Lender”) secured by the Charlotte HGI (described in Item 2.03 below), the issuance by the Operating Partnership of 598,755 Series T Limited Units of the Operating Partnership, and the payment by the Operating Partnership of $0.4 million in cash.
Pursuant to the Charlotte HGI Contribution Agreement, the parties entered into an amendment to the amended and restated limited partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership to evidence the issuance of the Series T Limited Units to the Contributor. Such Series T Limited Units will be entitled to annual cash distributions of up to 6.0% of the unit value for the three years after closing, depending upon the net operating income (“NOI”) of the Charlotte HGI during each such applicable year. The Series T Limited Units will convert into Common Limited Units of the Operating Partnership beginning 24 months after the closing. The number of Common Limited Units to be issued to the Contributor upon conversion will be based upon a capitalization rate applied to the then-current trailing 12-month NOI of the Charlotte HGI less amounts incurred or accrued by the Operating Partnership for (i) any funds advanced as cash at closing (ii) the loan balance outstanding as of the contribution date on the existing loan secured by the Charlotte HGI, (iii) loan assumption or origination fees and related expenses, (iv) if applicable, costs of prepayment or defeasance and related expenses, (v) property improvement plan (“PIP”) and capital expenditures, (vi) operating cash infused by the Company and/or Operating Partnership, (vii) any shortfall of the 10% minimum cumulative yield on Company’s invested capital, and (ix) any other unrealized or unreimbursed costs of operating the Charlotte HGI, calculated pursuant to the terms of the Charlotte HGI Contribution Agreement, which may be higher or lower than the initial valuation.
Acquisition of Charlotte HGI
On August 25, 2022, the Contributor contributed the Charlotte HGI to the Operating Partnership for the contribution consideration described above. The Company funded the acquisition of the Charlotte HGI with proceeds from the Company’s ongoing private offering, Series T units issued to the Contributor as described above, and the refinancing of the existing loan with a new loan secured by the Charlotte HGI (described above and discussed in more detail in Item 2.03 below).
Management of Charlotte HGI
On August 25, 2022, the Company, through its subsidiary LF3 Charlotte TRS, LLC (the “Charlotte HGI TRS Subsidiary”) entered into a management agreement with HP Hotel Management, Inc. (“HP”) (the “HP Management Agreement”), to provide property management and hotel operations management services for the Charlotte HGI. The HP Management Agreement has an initial term of three years after its effective date, which automatically renews for successive three-year periods, unless terminated in accordance with its terms. Pursuant to the HP Management Agreement, the TRS Subsidiary agrees to pay to HP a management fee equal to 3.0% of total revenues, an accounting fee of $2,000 for
accounting services, and a revenue management fee of $1,650, all payable monthly. HP may also receive incentive management fees if certain performance metrics are achieved and may receive an onboarding fee as defined in the HP Management Agreement. The TRS Subsidiary also reimburses HP for certain costs of operating the property incurred on behalf of the Company. All reimbursements are paid to HP at cost. The HP Management Agreement may be terminated upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the HP Management Agreement), subject in certain cases to applicable notice and cure periods as described in the HP Management Agreement.

ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
On June 1, 2018, Lodging Fund REIT III, Inc. (the “Company”) commenced a private placement offering of up to $100,000,000, which was increased to $150,000,000 in shares of its common stock (the “Offering”). The Company is offering these securities in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Regulation D under the Securities Act relating to sales not involving any public offering. The securities are being offered and sold only to purchasers who are “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, and without the use of general solicitation, as that concept is embodied in Regulation D. In addition to sales of common stock for cash, the Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), which permits stockholders to reinvest their distributions back into the Company. Except as otherwise provided in the offering memorandum for the Offering, the shares offered in the Offering for cash are being offered at an initial price of $10.00 per share, with shares issued pursuant to the DRIP being purchased at an initial price of $9.50 per share.
On June 15, 2020, the Operating Partnership commenced a private placement offering of limited partnership units in the OP, designated as Series GO LP Units, with a maximum offering of $20,000,000, which may be increased to $30,000,000 in the sole discretion of the General Partner, (the “GO Unit Offering”). The Operating Partnership is offering these securities in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act relating to sales not involving any public offering. The securities are being offered and sold only to purchasers who are “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, and without the use of general solicitation, as that concept is embodied in Regulation D. Subject to restrictions on ownership in order to comply with rules governing real estate investment trusts and the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, each holder of Series GO LP Units (a “Series GO Limited Partner”) will have the right to
exchange its Series GO LP Units for, at the option of the Operating Partnership, an equivalent number of shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Shares”), or cash equal to the fair market value of the Common Shares (the “Cash Amount”) which would have otherwise been received pursuant to such exchange. The exchange right is not available until all of the following have occurred (the “Exchange Date”): (i) the Common Shares are listed on a national securities exchange, the sale of all or substantially all of the GP Units and Interval Units held by the Company or any sale, exchange or merger of the Company or the Operating Partnership or, as determined in the sole discretion of the Company, the occurrence of a similar event; (ii) the Series GO Limited Partner has held its Series GO LP Units for at least one year; (iii) the Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the redemption have been registered with the SEC and the registration statement has been declared effective, or an exemption from registration is available; and (iv) the exchange does not result in a violation of the shareholder ownership limitations set forth in the Company’s articles of incorporation. Notwithstanding the above, the Company may waive any of the requirements above in its sole discretion other than (ii) or (iv). Our board of directors terminated the GO Unit Offering as of February 14, 2022. Our board of directors approved and ratified additional sales after February 14, 2022 in the GO Unit Offering for sales which were pending as of that date
On June 15, 2020, the Operating Partnership established a new series of limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership, designated as Series T LP Units (the “Series T LP Units”). The Operating Partnership may issue the Series T LP Units from time to time to persons who contribute direct or indirect interests in real estate to the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership issued an aggregate of 5,404,433 Series T LP Units in connection with such property contributions. These securities were issued in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act relating to sales not involving any public offering. The securities were offered and sold only to purchasers who are “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act. Subject to the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, each holder of Series T LP Units (a “Series T Limited Partner”) will have its Series T LP Units convert into Common Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (“Common LP Units”) beginning 24 months after the issuance and will automatically convert into Common LP Units upon other events as described in the Partnership Agreement of the Operating Partnership. The conversion of Series T LP Units into Common LP Units may vary with each issuance and is generally based on a formula that applies an applicable capitalization rate to the then-current trailing twelve months net operating income of the hotel property less the loan balance outstanding as of the contribution date as assumed by the Operating Partnership, and less other amounts incurred by the Operating Partnership including but not limited to certain closing costs, loan assumption fees and defeasance costs, property improvement plan (“PIP”) and capital expenditures, operating cash infused by the Operating Partnership, and any shortfall of certain minimum cumulative investment yield. There is no guarantee that the future financial performance of the contributed hotel property will be sufficient to result in the issuance of Common LP Units resulting from the application of the conversion formula applicable to the issuance of Series T LP Units at the time of conversion. As a result, the number of Common Shares described below in connection with the Series T LP Unit conversions assumes a projected conversion rate based on the value of the contributed property assigned by third-party appraisals received by the Company on or prior to the date of this filing.
On December 3, 2021, the Operating Partnership commenced a private placement offering of its Common LP Units. The Operating Partnership is offering these securities in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act relating to sales not involving any public offering. The securities are being offered and sold only to purchasers who are “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act. Subject to restrictions on ownership in order to comply with rules governing real estate investment trusts and the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, each holder of Common LP Units (a “Common LP Partner”) will have the right to exchange its Common LP Units for, at the option of the Operating Partnership, an equivalent number of Common Shares or the Cash Amount which would have otherwise been received pursuant to such exchange. The exchange right is not available until the Exchange Date (as defined above). Notwithstanding the above, the Company may waive any of the requirements above in its sole discretion other than (ii) or (iv).
During the period from May 13, 2022 to August 25, 2022, the Company issued and sold 625,538 shares of common stock, including 49,565 shares issued pursuant to the DRIP. Although the number is not determinable at this time, the Operating Partnership estimates that an additional 250,435 Common LP Units will be issuable upon conversion of Series T Limited Units to Common LP Units as described above. The Company and the Operating Partnership received aggregate proceeds of approximately $8.7 million. During the period from May 13, 2022 to August 25, 2022, aggregate selling commissions of $311,602 and marketing and diligence allowances and other wholesale selling costs and expenses of $492,436 were paid in connection with the Offering. As of August 25, 2022, there were 9,506,657 shares of the Company’s common stock, 3,118,051 Series GO LP Units and 1,238,812 Common LP Units outstanding.
