Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On November 11, 2016, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of InnSuites Hospitality Trust (the “Trust”) determined that the Trust’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2016 Annual Meeting”) will be held on January 24, 2017 at the Trust’s corporate offices located at 1625 E. Northern Avenue, Suite # 105, Phoenix, Arizona 85020, at 10 a.m., local time. The record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2016 Annual Meeting was set as December 12, 2016.

 

Because the 2016 Annual Meeting will be held more than 30 days after the anniversary of the 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Trust is informing its shareholders of the revised deadlines for the submission of shareholder proposals. Any shareholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in the Trust’s proxy materials for the 2016 Annual Meeting must be submitted to the Trust a reasonable time before we begin to print and send proxy materials (that is, no later than November 22, 2016). For the 2016 Annual Meeting, any proposal that a shareholder desires to present at the 2016 Annual Meeting, but is not submitted for inclusion in the Trust’s proxy materials, must be submitted to the Trust a reasonable time before we send the proxy materials (that is, no later than November 25, 2016).

 

Important Information

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the solicitation of proxies from shareholders in connection with the 2016 Annual Meeting. The Trust will file a proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the 2016 Annual Meeting. The proxy statement, any other relevant documents and other material filed with the SEC concerning the Trust will be, when filed, available free of charge at www.sec.gov and on our website at www.innsuitestrust.com. Copies may also be obtained, free of charge, by contacting InnSuites Hospitality Trust at (602) 944-1500. Shareholders are urged to read the proxy statement and any other relevant documents filed when they become available before making any voting decision because they will contain important information.

 

Participants in Solicitation

 

The Trust, its trustees and executive officers and employees may be deemed to be participants in such solicitation. Information about the Trust’s trustees and executive officers and their ownership of the Trust’s securities is available in the Trust’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 29, 2016, and in subsequent SEC filings on Form 8-K and Forms 4.
