Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On November 30, 2010, the members of Summit Hotel Properties, LLC (the “Company”) approved an amendment to the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (the “Operating Agreement”). The amendment provides that The Summit Group, Inc., as the Class C member, voting separately, and holders of 51% or more of the Class A and Class A-1 membership interests, voting together as a group, may approve a merger of the Company. Prior to the approval of the amendment, the Operating Agreement did not address the required vote for approval of a merger of the Company.

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On November 30, 2010, the Company held a special meeting of its Class A, Class A-1 and Class C members at the Hilton Garden Inn, 5300 South Grand Circle, Sioux Falls, South Dakota 57108.

The members approved an amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Operating Agreement for the Company concerning the voting provisions for approval of a merger, the agreement and plan of merger dated as of August 5, 2010 between the Company and Summit Hotel OP, LP, and a proposal relating to adjournment of the meeting to a later date, if necessary or appropriate.
