Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 12, 2026, Summit Hotel Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that William Conkling, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has resigned as an officer and employee of the Company effective as of June 15, 2026 (the “Effective Date”). Mr. Conkling’s departure is not the result of any disagreement with the Company or any matter related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices, including its accounting principles, financial statements or financial disclosures.
In connection with his separation from the Company, the Company and Mr. Conkling entered into a Separation and Consulting Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) that sets forth the terms of his termination of employment. Under the Separation Agreement, Mr. Conkling has agreed to provide the Company with consulting and transition services for the period commencing on June 16, 2026, and ending on September 30, 2026. During the consulting period, Mr. Conkling will receive a consulting fee of $25,000 per calendar month as prorated based on the effective date of the Separation Agreement.
Other than accrued obligations and the consulting fee described above, Mr. Conkling will not be entitled to any termination or severance payments or benefits in connection with his termination, and any unvested equity-based awards held by Mr. Conkling as of the Effective Date will be forfeited.
In addition, the Separation Agreement provides that, in connection with his termination of employment and the termination of the consulting period, Mr. Conkling will execute and deliver a general release of claims in favor of the Company. The Separation Agreement further provides that the noncompete covenant under Mr. Conkling’s employment agreement with the Company will continue to apply for six months (rather than twelve months) following the termination of his employment. All other restrictive covenants contained in Mr. Conkling’s employment agreement will continue to apply in accordance with their terms.
The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2026.
Jonathan Stanner will assume the role of principal financial officer of the Company effective June 15, 2026, in addition to continuing as President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Stanner will not receive any additional compensation for his role as principal financial officer.
