Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	LTIP Units are a class of limited partnership units in XHR LP (the "Operating Partnership"), of which the Issuer's wholly-owned subsidiary is the general partner. Initially, the LTIP Units do not have full parity with common limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership ("Common Units") with respect to liquidating distributions. However, upon the occurrence of certain events described in the Operating Partnership's partnership agreement, the LTIP Units can over time achieve full parity with the Common Units for all purposes. If such parity is reached, vested LTIP Units may be converted into an equal number of Common Units on a one for one basis at any time at the request of the Reporting Person or the general partner of the Operating Partnership.
(2)	Common Units are redeemable for cash based on the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of the Issuer's common stock, or, at the election of the Issuer, an equal number of shares of the Issuer's common stock, each subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, specified extraordinary distributions or similar events. The LTIP Units issued pursuant to the Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc., XHR Holding, Inc. and XHR LP 2015 Incentive Award Plan were fully vested on the grant date.
