The 14.3% increase in Revenue per Available Room (RevPar excluding the addition of rooms) was the net effect of:

a.   A 10.0% ADR increase resulting from: (i) double-digit growth for rates in various hotels of the Company’s portfolio. This increase was driven by the correct management of and implementation of hotel rates; and (ii) the benefit of foreign exchange variations over a number of rates in U.S. dollars, due to global brands.
b. Occupancy levels increased 1.9 percentage points. It is important to mention that generally, during the months of December and January, there is an expected decrease in occupancy due to the seasonality of the holiday season that results in a lower number of business travelers. However, December occupancy rose compared to December 2015.
