VANCOUVER, March 15, 2018 /CNW/ - American Hotel Income
Properties REIT LP ("AHIP") (TSX: HOT.UN, HOT.U, and HOT.DB.U) announced today a cash distribution of US$0.054 per limited partnership unit ("Unit") for the period of March 1, 2018 to
March 31, 2018, which is equivalent to US$0.648 per Unit on an
annualized basis. The distribution will be paid on April 13, 2018 to unitholders of record at the
close of business on March 29, 2018.
"We have no intention of changing our distribution based on our ongoing performance and expectations, and understand the
importance of this cash return to our valued income-biased investor base," said Rob O'Neill, CEO,
AHIP. "Like all hotel companies, our business has seasonality and therefore should be reviewed and evaluated on an annual basis,
which we believe is an important consideration for long-term oriented investors."
The policy of AHIP is to pay cash distributions on or about the 15th day of each month to the unitholders of record on
the last business day of the preceding month.
