Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, REIT unitholders (the “Unitholders”) were able to elect to receive, per trust unit of the REIT (each, a “Unit”), either US$0.36 cash or one (1) common share of NHT Hospitality, Inc., which was subsequently converted into a number of common shares of NXDT (the “NXDT Common Shares”) equal to the quotient of US$0.36 divided by the volume weighted average price of the NXDT Common Shares quoted on the New York Stock Exchange for the ten (10) trading days prior to Closing.
