It would own 46 hotels with 12,636 guest rooms in 19 states and the District of Columbia, along with a majority interest in two hotels under development.<\/p>\n<p>Xenia will focus on premium full-service, lifestyle and urban upscale hotels in the top 25 lodging markets and key leisure destinations throughout the United States, \u201cwith a particular focus on urban and densely populated suburban markets with multiple demand generators and high barriers to entry,\u201d the company said in a statement. Its portfolio will include such brands as Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, Starwood, Kimpton, Aston, Fairmont and Loews.<\/p>\n<p>Xenia will be led by president and CEO Marcel Verbaas, a member of Xenia\u2019s board of directors who, with his team, has managed Inland American\u2019s lodging assets since 2007.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the past 18 months, Inland American has been implementing its long-term strategy of focusing our portfolio into three asset classes \u2013 lodging, multi-tenant retail and student housing,\u201d Inland American president Thomas P. McGuinness commented in the statement. \u201cWe believe the potential spin-off is an important and significant step\u201d toward achieving this and other strategic goals, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Goldman, Sachs &amp; Co. and Morgan Stanley &amp; Co. L.L.C. are financial advisors to Inland American in relation to the spinoff and Latham &amp; Watkins L.L.P. is providing \u00a0legal counsel.<\/p>\n<p>The brand name Xenia (pronounced ZEEN-yah) is derived from an ancient Greek term that refers to offering hospitality to a stranger.<\/p>\n<p>Inland American is also currently marketing for sale their remaining suburban select-service hotels. As of March 31, Inland American owned 20,093 hotel rooms.<\/p>\n<p>The spinoff is expected to take place through a pro rata distribution by Inland American of a specified percentage of the outstanding shares of Xenia common stock. Following the distribution, Inland American stockholders will own shares of common stock in both Inland American (the same number of shares each stockholder held initially) and Xenia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inland American Real Estate Trust Inc. plans to spin off much of its lodging portfolio, as a  publicly traded company called Xenia Hotels &amp;
