StructureLightstone Value Plus Real Estate Investment Trust III, Inc. ("Lightstone REIT III"), is aMaryland corporation, formed onOctober 5, 2012 , which elected to qualify to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") forU.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year endingDecember 31, 2015 . Lightstone REIT III is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT ("UPREIT"), and substantially all of its current and future business is and will be conducted throughLightstone Value Plus REIT III LP , aDelaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). As ofMarch 31, 2021 , Lightstone REIT III held an approximately 99% general partnership interest in theOperating Partnership's common units. 17
Lightstone REIT III and theOperating Partnership and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "Company" and the use of "we," "our," "us" or similar pronouns in this annual report refers to the Lightstone REIT III, itsOperating Partnership or the Company as required by the context in which such pronoun is used. We have and will continue to seek to acquire a diverse portfolio of real estate assets and real estate-related investments, including hotels, other commercial and/or residential properties, primarily located inthe United States . All such properties may be acquired and operated by us alone or jointly with another party. We may also originate or acquire mortgage loans secured by real estate. Although we expect that most of our investments will be of these types, we may make other investments. In fact, we may invest in whatever types of real estate-related investments that we believe are in our best interests. We currently have one operating segment. As ofMarch 31, 2021 , we majority owned and consolidated the operating results and financial condition of eight limited service hotels containing a total of 872 rooms and an unconsolidated 50.0% membership interest inLVP LIC Hotel JV LLC (the "Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture "). We account for our unconsolidated membership interest in theHilton Garden Inn Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting. Our advisor isLightstone Value Plus REIT III LLC (the "Advisor"), which is majority owned byDavid Lichtenstein . OnJuly 16, 2014 , the Advisor contributed$2,000 to theOperating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in theOperating Partnership . Our Advisor also owns 20,000 shares of our common stock ("Common Shares") which were issued onDecember 24, 2012 for$200,000 , or$10.00 per share.Mr. Lichtenstein also is the majority owner of the equity interests of theLightstone Group, LLC .The Lightstone Group, LLC served as our sponsor (the "Sponsor") during our initial public offering (the "Offering") which terminated onMarch 31, 2017 .Mr. Lichtenstein owns 222,222 Common Shares which were issued onDecember 11, 2014 for$2.0 million , or$9.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of an advisory agreement and subject to the oversight of our board of directors (the "Board of Directors"), the Advisor has primary responsibility for making investment decisions on our behalf and managing our day-to-day operations. Through his ownership and control ofThe Lightstone Group, LLC ,Mr. Lichtenstein is the indirect owner and manager ofLightstone SLP III LLC , aDelaware limited liability company (the "Special Limited Partner"), which owns 242 subordinated participation interests ("Subordinated Participation Interests") in theOperating Partnership which were acquired for$12.1 million in connection with our Offering.Mr. Lichtenstein also acts as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. As a result, he exerts influence over but does not control Lightstone REIT III or theOperating Partnership .
We do not have employees. The Advisor receives compensation and fees for services related to the investment and management of our assets.
Our Advisor has affiliated property managers (the "Property Managers"), which may manage certain of the properties we acquire. We also use other unaffiliated third-party property managers, principally for the management of our hospitality properties. Our Common Shares are not currently listed on a national securities exchange. We may seek to list our Common Shares for trading on a national securities exchange only if a majority of our independent directors believe listing would be in the best interest of our stockholders. We do not intend to list our Common Shares at this time. We do not anticipate that there would be any active market for our Common Shares until they are listed for trading. In the event we do not begin the process of achieving a liquidity event prior toMarch 31, 2025 , which is the eighth anniversary of the termination of our Offering, our charter requires either (a) an amendment to our charter to extend the deadline to begin the process of achieving a liquidity event, or (b) the holding of a stockholders meeting to vote on a proposal for an orderly liquidation of our portfolio.
Noncontrolling Interests - Partners of the
Limited Partner OnJuly 16, 2014 , the Advisor contributed$2,000 to theOperating Partnership in exchange for 200 limited partner units in theOperating Partnership . The Advisor has the right to convert the limited partner units into cash or, at our option, an equal number of our Common Shares. Special Limited Partner In connection with our Offering, which terminated onMarch 31, 2017 , the Special Limited Partner purchased from theOperating Partnership an aggregate of approximately 242 Subordinated Participation Interests for consideration of$12.1 million . The Subordinated Participation Interests were each purchased for$50,000 in consideration and may be entitled to receive liquidation distributions upon the liquidation of Lightstone REIT III. As the majority owner of the Special Limited Partner,Mr. Lichtenstein is the beneficial owner of a 99% interest in such Subordinated Participation Interests and will thus receive an indirect benefit from any distributions made in respect thereof. 18 These Subordinated Participation Interests entitle the Special Limited Partner to a portion of any regular and liquidation distributions that we make to our stockholders, but only after our stockholders have received a stated preferred return. From our inception throughMarch 31, 2021 , no distributions have been declared or paid on the Subordinated Participation Interests. Tax Status We elected to qualify and be taxed as a REIT forU.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year endedDecember 31, 2015 . As a REIT, we generally will not be subject toU.S. federal income tax on our net taxable income that we distribute currently to our stockholders. To maintain our REIT qualification under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code"), we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we annually distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, which does not equal net income, as calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States of America ("GAAP"), determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding any net capital gain. If we fail to remain qualified for taxation as a REIT in any subsequent year and do not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, our income for that year will be taxed at regular corporate rates, and we may be precluded from qualifying for treatment as a REIT for the four-year period following our failure to qualify as a REIT. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders. We engage in certain activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"), including when we acquire a hotel we usually establish a TRS which then enters into an operating lease agreement for the hotel. As such, we may be subject toU.S. federal and state income taxes and franchise taxes from these activities. As ofMarch 31, 2021 andDecember 31, 2020 , we had no material uncertain income tax positions. Additionally, even if we continue to qualify as a REIT forU.S. federal income tax purposes, we may still be subject to someU.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property and toU.S. federal income taxes and excise taxes on our undistributed income, if any. Current Environment Our operating results are substantially impacted by the overall health of local,U.S. national and global economies and may be influenced by market and other challenges. Additionally, our business and financial performance may be adversely affected by current and future economic and other conditions; including, but not limited to, availability or terms of financings, financial markets volatility, political upheaval or uncertainty, natural and man-made disasters, terrorism and acts of war, unfavorable changes in laws and regulations, outbreaks of contagious diseases, cybercrime, loss of key relationships, and recession.
COVID-19 Pandemic Operations and Liquidity Update
OnMarch 11, 2020 , theWorld Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic leading many countries, includingthe United States , particularly at the individual state level, to subsequently impose various degrees of restrictions and other measures, including, but not limited to, mandatory temporary closures, quarantine guidelines, limitations on travel, and "shelter in place" rules in an effort to reduce its duration and the severity of its spread. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve, most of these previously imposed restrictions and other measures have now been reduced and/or lifted. However, the COVID-19 pandemic remains highly unpredictable and dynamic and its duration and extent is likely dependent on numerous developments such as the regulatory approval, mass production, administration and ultimate effectiveness of vaccines, as well as the timeline to achieve a level of sufficient herd immunity amongst the general population. Accordingly, the COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have negative effects on the overall health of theU.S. economy for the foreseeable future. The extent to which our business may be affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will largely depend on both current and future developments, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, room demand for our consolidated and unconsolidated hotels began to significantly decline inMarch 2020 and while there has been slight sequential improvement since then; room demand continues to be substantially below historical levels. SinceMarch 2020 , the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant negative impact on our operations, financial position and cash flow and we currently expect that it will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. We cannot currently estimate if and when room demand will fully recover to pre-pandemic levels for our hotels.
In light of the past, present and potential future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating results of our hotels, we have taken various actions to preserve our liquidity, including, but not limited to, those described below:
? We implemented cost reduction strategies for all of our hotels, leading to
reductions in certain operating expenses and capital expenditures. 19 ? Amendments to Revolving Credit Facility -

debt service payments aggregating$0.8 million for the period fromApril 1, 2020 throughSeptember 30, 2020 untilJuly 13, 2022 ; (ii) a 100 bps
reduction in the interest rate spread to LIBOR + 2.15%, subject to a 3.00%
floor, for the six-month period from
collateral reserve account to cover the six monthly debt service payments
due from

collateral reserve account; (iii) a waiver of all financial covenants for
quarter-end periods through
return to the full financial covenant requirements over the quarter-end
periods beginning
one-year extension options at the lender's sole discretion (v) certain
limitations and restrictions on asset sales and additional borrowings
related to the pledged collateral. See Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. ? InApril 2020 , our hotels received$1.5 million from loans provided under
the federal Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP Loans"). Subsequently,
during the first quarter of 2021, our hotels received an additional
million from PPP Loans. See Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for additional information. ? OnJune 19, 2019 , the Board of Directors had previously determined to
suspend regular monthly distributions and, as a result, have not declared
any distributions on our Common Shares since the suspension. Additionally,
onMarch 19, 2020 , the Board of Directors approved the suspension of all redemptions under our shareholder redemption program.
? We had
intermediary to facilitate a potential like-kind exchange transaction
under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as Amended,
released to us inMay 2020 . ?The Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture has obtained various amendments to its non-recourse mortgage loan secured by theHilton Garden Inn -Long Island City. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. We believe that these actions, along with our available cash on hand, restricted cash and marketable securities, will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations for at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. We are not currently aware of any other material trends or uncertainties, favorable or unfavorable, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on either capital resources or the revenues or income to be derived from our operations, other than those referred to above or throughout this Form 10-Q. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during a reporting period. 20 Portfolio Summary - Average Revenue per Daily Available Rate For Percentage Room for the Occupied the Three Three for the Three Months Months Year to Date Months Ended Ended Ended March March 31, March 31, 31, Location Year Built Date Acquired Available Rooms 2021 2021 2021 Wholly-Owned and Consolidated Hospitality Properties: Hampton Inn - Des Des Moines, Moines Iowa 1987 02/04/2015 10,800 40 %$ 30.60 $ 77.07 Courtyard - Durham Durham, North Carolina 1996 05/15/2015 13,140 38 %$ 31.83 $ 83.46 Hampton Inn - Lansing Lansing, Michigan 2013 03/10/2016 7,740 52 %$ 39.16 $ 75.57 Courtyard - Warwick Warwick, Rhode Island 2003 03/23/2016 8,280 44 %$ 35.55 $ 80.51 Home2 Suites - Salt Salt Lake City, Lake Utah 2013 08/02/2016 11,250 47 %$ 32.52 $ 69.91 Home2 Suites - Tukwila, Tukwila Washington 2015 08/02/2016 12,510 82 %$ 73.32 $ 89.35 Fairfield Inn - Austin Austin, Texas 2014 09/13/2016 7,560 100 %$ 70.00 $ 70.00 Staybridge Suites - Austin Austin, Texas 2009 10/07/2016 7,200 74 %$ 59.20 $ 80.52 Total 78,480 57.7 %$ 45.68 $ 79.10

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There were no material changes during the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 to our critical accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 . Results of Operations
Disposition of an unconsolidated 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture
OnFebruary 12, 2020 , we completed the disposition of an unconsolidated 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture which resulted in the recognition of a gain on the disposition of unconsolidated affiliated real estate entity of$7.9 million during the first quarter of 2020. We currently have one operating segment. As ofMarch 31, 2021 , we majority owned and consolidated the operating results and financial condition of eight limited service hotels containing a total of 872 rooms and an unconsolidated 50.0% membership interest in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture, which we account for under the equity method of accounting. 21
Comparison of the three months ended
Consolidated
Our consolidated revenues, property operating expenses, real estate taxes, general and administrative expense and depreciation and amortization for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 and 2020 are attributable to our consolidated hospitality properties, all of which were owned by us during the entire periods presented. Although our operating performance during the 2021 and 2020 quarterly periods were both negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, our hospitality portfolio first began to experience a significant drop in room demand beginning inMarch 2020 . Overall, our hospitality portfolio experienced decreases in the percentage of rooms occupied from 60.3% to 57.7% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively, revenue per available room ("RevPAR") from$63.54 to$45.68 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively, and the average daily rate per room ("ADR") from$105.35 to$79.10 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively. Revenues
Revenues decreased by$1.6 million to$3.7 million during the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 compared to$5.3 million for the same period in 2020. This decrease reflects the lower occupancy, RevPAR and ADR during the 2021 quarterly period compared to the same period in 2020, which was primarily attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. Property operating expenses Property operating expenses decreased by$1.3 million to$2.7 million during the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 compared to$4.0 million for the same period in 2020. This decrease reflects the lower occupancy during the 2021 period resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Real estate taxes
Real estate taxes were
General and administrative expense
General and administrative expenses decreased slightly by$0.1 million to$0.6 million during the three months endedMarch 31 , 2021compared to$0.7 million for the same period in 2020.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased slightly by$0.1 million to$0.7 million during the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 compared to$0.8 million for the same period in 2020. Interest expense is attributable to financings associated with our hotels and reflects both changes in market interest rates on our variable rate indebtedness and the weighted average principal outstanding during the periods.
Gain on disposition of unconsolidated affiliated real estate entity
OnFebruary 12, 2020 , we completed the disposition of an unconsolidated 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture which resulted in the recognition of a gain on the disposition of unconsolidated affiliated real estate entity of$7.9 million during the first quarter of 2020. Earnings from investments in unconsolidated affiliated real estate entities Our loss from investments in unconsolidated affiliated real estate entities was$0.2 million during the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 compared to$0.6 million for the same period in 2020. Our loss from investments in unconsolidated affiliated real estate entities is attributable solely to our unconsolidated 50.0% membership interest in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture during the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 and both our unconsolidated 50.0% membership interest in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture our unconsolidated 22.5% membership interest in the Cove Joint Venture (through the date of the redemption of our membership interest onFebruary 12, 2020 ) during the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 . We account for our membership interests in the Hilton Garden Inn Joint Venture and the Cove Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting commencing on the date that we acquired our interests.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview: Revenues, interest and dividend income, proceeds from the sale of marketable securities, cash on hand and borrowings are our principal sources of funds to pay operating expenses, scheduled debt service, capital expenditures (excluding non-recurring capital expenditures), contributions to our unconsolidated affiliated entity, redemptions and cancellations of shares of our common stock, if approved, and distributions, if any, required to maintain our status as a REIT. During the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 , our primary source of funds was from the disposition of marketable securities of$1.5 million . We currently believe that these cash resources along with our available cash on hand of$25.6 million , restricted cash of$3.2 million and marketable securities of$1.8 million , all as ofMarch 31, 2021 , will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not currently anticipate a need to raise funds from other than these sources within the next 12 months. However, to the extent that cash flow from operations and available cash on hand, restricted cash and marketable securities are not sufficient to cover our cash needs, we may use proceeds from additional borrowings and/or selective asset sales to fund such needs. As ofMarch 31, 2021 , we have$60.8 million of outstanding mortgage debt and$3.3 million of PPP Loans (classified as notes payable on our consolidated balance sheet). We have and intend to continue to limit our aggregate long-term permanent borrowings to 75% of the aggregate fair market value of all properties unless any excess borrowing is approved by a majority of the independent directors and is disclosed to our stockholders. Market conditions will dictate our overall leverage limit; as such our aggregate long-term permanent borrowings may be less than 75% of aggregate fair market value of all properties. We may also incur short-term indebtedness, having a maturity of two years or less. Our charter provides that the aggregate amount of our borrowing, both secured and unsecured, may not exceed 300% of net assets in the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level is appropriate, the approval of our Board of Directors and disclosure to stockholders. Net assets means our total assets, other than intangibles, at cost before deducting depreciation or other non-cash reserves less our total liabilities, calculated at least quarterly on a basis consistently applied. Any excess in borrowing over such 300% of net assets level must be approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to our stockholders in our next quarterly report to stockholders, along with justification for such excess. Market conditions will dictate our overall leverage limit; as such our aggregate borrowings may be less than 300% of net assets. As ofMarch 31, 2021 , our total borrowings were$64.3 million which represented 62% of our net assets. Our borrowings currently consist of mortgages cross-collateralized by a pool of properties. Our mortgages typically provide for either interest-only payments (generally for variable-rate indebtedness) or level payments (generally for fixed-rate indebtedness) with "balloon" payments due at maturity. Any future properties that we may acquire or develop may be funded through a combination of borrowings and the proceeds received from the disposition of certain of our assets. These borrowing may consist of single-property mortgages as well as mortgages cross-collateralized by a pool of properties. Such mortgages may be put in place either at the time we acquire a property or subsequent to our purchasing a property for cash. In addition, we may acquire properties that are subject to existing indebtedness where we choose to assume the existing mortgages. Generally, though not exclusively, we intend to seek to encumber our properties with non-recourse debt. This means that a lender's rights on default will generally be limited to foreclosing on the property. However, we may, at our discretion, secure recourse financing or provide a guarantee to lenders if we believe this may result in more favorable terms. When we give a guaranty for a property owning entity, we will be responsible to the lender for the satisfaction of the indebtedness if it is not paid by the property owning entity. We may also obtain lines of credit to be used to acquire properties. If obtained, these lines of credit will be at prevailing market terms and will be repaid from proceeds from the sale or refinancing of properties, working capital and/or permanent financing. Our Sponsor and/or its affiliates may guarantee our lines of credit although they are not obligated to do so. We expect that such properties may be purchased by our Sponsor's affiliates on our behalf, in our name, in order to minimize the imposition of a transfer tax upon a transfer
of such properties to us. 23 We have various agreements, including an advisory agreement, with the Advisor to pay certain fees in exchange for services performed by the Advisor and/or its affiliated entities. Additionally, our ability to secure financing and our real estate operations are dependent upon our Advisor and its affiliates to perform such services as provided in these agreements. In addition to meeting working capital needs and distributions, if any, made to maintain our status as a REIT, our capital resources are used to make certain payments to our Advisor, including payments related to asset acquisition fees and asset management fees, the reimbursement of acquisition-related expenses to our Advisor. We also reimburse our advisor for actual expenses it incurs for administrative and other services provided to us. Additionally, theOperating Partnership may be required to make distributions toLightstone SLP III LLC , an affiliate of the Advisor. Upon the liquidation of assets, we may pay our Advisor or its affiliates a real estate disposition commission. The advisory agreement has a one-year term and is renewable for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of the Advisor and our independent directors.
The following table represents the fees incurred associated with the payments to the Company's Advisor for the periods indicated:
