DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

As of the date hereof, CorePoint Lodging Inc. (the “Company”), has been, or will be, acquired by Cavalier Acquisition Owner LP (“Cavalier”) pursuant to a certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of November 6, 2021, by and among the Company, Cavalier (as assignee of Cavalier Acquisition JV LP) and Cavalier MergerSub LP, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cavalier (as assignee of Cavalier) (“Merger Sub”) (as amended, modified or assigned, the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Company has been, or will as of the date hereof be, merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Cavalier. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to vesting restrictions, restricted stock unit, performance-based restricted stock unit, and deferred stock unit, in each case, granted under the CorePoint Lodging Inc. 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was, or will be, automatically converted into the right to receive the merger consideration in the manner described in the Merger Agreement.

As a result of the aforementioned merger, the Company is no longer issuing securities under the Plan. Accordingly, the Company is filing these post-effective amendments (these “Post-Effective Amendments”) to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statements”), which have been previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), to deregister any and all securities registered but unsold or otherwise unissued under the following Registration Statements:

1. Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-225259), filed with the SEC on May 29, 2018, registering 8,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the Plan; and

2. Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-254288), filed with the SEC on March 15, 2021, registering 331,734 shares of Common Stock under the Plan.

The Company, by filing these Post-Effective Amendments, hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements. These Post-Effective Amendments are being filed in accordance with an undertaking made by the Company in Part II of each Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any securities that had been registered for issuance but remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
