Are the revenue management programs offered by Baymont Inn Suites mandatory?

We offer comprehensive revenue management programs for additional fees.

These optional programs are available at three levels of service for varying fees: Standard RMS, Premium RMS, and Premium Plus RMS, as further described below.

No matter the service level, Revenue Management Services ("RMS") include inventory management, strategic positioning, future demand strategy and targeted promotions and packages, at different frequencies.

We reserve the right to evaluate a variety of factors, including but not limited to, your Facility's room count, occupancy rate, trends, and market to determine the most suitable

level of service. See Exhibit C-7 and Item 6 for additional description of options and fees.

• Standard RMS is a service that includes STR review and evaluation, rate and inventory maintenance, as well as scheduled communication two times per week and monthly meetings with your assigned revenue management professional.

However, if you opt to participate and your Facility achieves greater than 70% occupancy for 12 consecutive months, then it will only be permitted to participate at the Premium RMS level (see directly below).

• Premium RMS is a service that includes inventory management, as well as scheduled communication two times per week and weekly meetings with your assigned revenue management professional, and STR review and recommendations.

However, if you opt to participate and your Facility achieves greater than 70% occupancy for 12 consecutive months, then it will only be permitted to participate at the Premium RMS level.

• Premium Plus RMS includes Premium RMS plus daily recommendations, twice-weekly strategy discussions, and two annual property visits.
