HALIFAX, Feb. 10, 2014 /CNW/ - Holloway Lodging Corporation (TSX: HLC)
("Holloway") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an
additional credit facility consisting of a $17.0 million term loan (the

acquisition of additional hotels.
The Term Loan has an interest rate of 6.5% and does not require any
principal payments until the maturity on March 31, 2016. The maturity
date may be extended 12 months at Holloway's option provided certain
conditions are satisfied, including there being no event of default
then continuing under the Term Loan. Holloway may prepay all or part of
the Term Loan at any time following the six-month anniversary of the
first loan draw. The Term Loan may be drawn up to three times on or

the use of proceeds drawn. The Term Loan is secured by a negative
pledge on one of Holloway's hotel properties, a corporate general
security agreement and an assignment of the equity interests of certain
subsidiaries. The Term Loan is callable by the lender upon a change of
control of Holloway that is not approved by the lender in advance.
