The Company’s Senior Notes due 2020 and 2022 are guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally, subject to certain customary limitations,
by eight wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends to Choice Hotels International, Inc. from
subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes. As a result of the guarantee arrangements, the following condensed consolidating financial statements are
presented. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
As described in Note 1 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 2012 and 2011 have been revised from prior filings to reflect the reclassification of certain operating and investing cash flows related to the
misapplication of GAAP to the presentation of cash flows from the Company's forgivable notes receivable. The following tables present the effect of the
correction on select line items included in the Parent and Guarantor's Condensed Consolidating Statement of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31,
2012 and 2011:
