CHOICE HOTELS ANNOUNCES EARLY TENDER RESULTS AND INCREASE IN AGGREGATE

MAXIMUM TENDER AMOUNT OF TENDER OFFER FOR ITS OUTSTANDING 5.750% SENIOR

NOTES DUE 2022

ROCKVILLE, Md. (July 23, 2020) — Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH) (the “Company”) announced today the early tender results for its previously announced tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase for cash up to an aggregate principal amount of $180,000,000 of its 5.750% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”). Additionally, the Company announced today that it has amended the Tender Offer by increasing the aggregate maximum tender amount from $180,000,000 to $183,429,000 (as amended, the “Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount”).

The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are set forth in the offer to purchase, dated July 9, 2020, as amended by this press release (as the same may be amended or supplemented, the “Offer to Purchase”). The Tender Offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City Time, at the end of August 5, 2020, unless earlier terminated.

As of 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on July 22, 2020 (such date and time, the “Early Tender Time”), according to information provided by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the Tender Offer, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes set forth in the table above under “Principal Amount Tendered at Early Tender Time” had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Tender Offer. Withdrawal rights for the Notes expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, on July 22, 2020.

The “Total Consideration” for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the fixed spread for the Notes specified in the table above plus the yield based on the bid-side price of the U.S. Treasury Reference Security specified in the table above at 10:00 a.m., New York City Time, today, and is inclusive of the Early Tender Premium as set forth in the table above.

The Company expects to announce the pricing of the Tender Offer and the amount of Notes accepted for purchase later today.

Only holders of Notes who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw their Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Time are eligible to receive the Total Consideration for the Notes accepted for purchase. Holders of Notes will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on their Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the settlement date.

The Company expects to satisfy the financing condition to the Tender Offer later today and, on July 24, 2020, expects to pay for the Notes that were validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Time and that are accepted for purchase.

Since the Tender Offer for the Notes was fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Time, the Company will not accept for purchase any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time. Because the aggregate principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Early Tender Time does not exceed the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, the Company expects to accept for purchase all such tendered Notes.
