None of the three alternatives required by the Dodd-Frank Law and applicable SEC rules to be presented to shareholders regarding the frequency of future advisory votes by shareholders on named executives officers' compensation received a majority vote of shareholders. The recommendation for such a vote every year received votes of 47.6% of outstanding shares; the recommendation for such a vote every two years received votes of 1.4% of outstanding shares; the recommendation for such a vote every three years received 36.2% of outstanding shares; and the balance of outstanding shares abstained or did not vote.

Shareholders did not approve a non-binding proposal by the California Public Employee Pension Plan, or CalPERS, requesting that HPT take steps to require that all HPT Trustees stand for election each year. This proposal received 68.6% of the votes outstanding, which is less than the votes of 75% of the outstanding shares required for its adoption.
