Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 25, 2025, Chatham Lodging Trust (the “Company”), as parent guarantor, Chatham Lodging LP, as borrower (the “Operating Partnership”), and certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership, as guarantors, entered into that certain new Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) for which Bank of America Securities, Inc. (“BOFA”) is acting as the administrative agent. BOFA, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Capital One, National Association, Regions Capital Markets and Truist Securities Inc. acted as joint lead arrangers, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada also served as lenders in the transaction.

The Credit Agreement provides for a $300 million unsecured revolving loan and an unsecured term loan of $200 million for a total of $500 million to replace the existing $260 million revolving credit facility and $140 unsecured term loan facility (together, the “Existing Facilities”). Proceeds from the new $200 million funded term loan were used to repay the $60 million of outstanding borrowings under the prior $260 million revolving credit facility and the $140 million of outstanding borrowings under the prior term loan. The new credit facility will mature on September 25, 2029 and additionally includes options to extend the maturity by 12 months.

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company guarantee to the lenders thereunder all of the financial obligations (including indebtedness, capital leases and guarantees) of the Operating Partnership and each other guarantor. From time to time, the Operating Partnership may be required to cause additional subsidiaries to become guarantors under the Credit Agreement.

All borrowings under the unsecured revolving loan will bear interest at a rate per annum pursuant to a leveraged based pricing grid over the applicable adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) ranging from 1.5% to 2.25% (currently 1.6%) and all borrowings under the term loan will bear interest at a rate per annum pursuant to a leveraged based pricing grid over the applicable adjusted term SOFR ranging from 1.45% to 2.2% (a 0.1% decrease from Existing Facilities).

The Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions customary for transactions of this type, including limitations on liens, incurrence of debt, investments, mergers and asset dispositions, covenants to preserve corporate existence and comply with laws, covenants on the use of proceeds of the credit facility or default provisions, including defaults for non-payment, breach of representations and warranties, insolvency, non-performance of covenants, cross-defaults and guarantor defaults. The occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement Amendment could result in all loans and other obligations becoming immediately due and payable and the credit facility being terminated and allow the lenders under the agreement to exercise all rights and remedies available to them with respect to the collateral.

The foregoing summaries of the material provisions of the Credit Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entireties by reference to the copy of the Credit Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
