PEBBLEBROOK HOTEL TRUST
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Organization
Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (the "Company") is an internally managed hotel investment company, formed as a Maryland real estate investment trust in October 2009 to opportunistically acquire and invest in hotel properties located primarily in major United States cities and resort properties located near our primary target urban markets and select destination resort markets, with an emphasis on major gateway coastal markets.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company owned 51 hotels with a total of 12,756 guest rooms . The hotel properties are located in: Boston, Massachusetts; Chicago, Illinois; Hollywood, Florida; Jekyll Island, Georgia; Key West, Florida; Miami (Coral Gables), Florida; Los Angeles, California (Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and West Hollywood); Naples, Florida; Newport, Rhode Island; Portland, Oregon; San Diego, California; San Francisco, California; Santa Cruz, California; Seattle, Washington; Stevenson, Washington; and Washington, D.C.
Substantially all of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of the Company's operations are conducted through, Pebblebrook Hotel, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"). The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of September 30, 2022, the Company owned 99.3 % of the common limited partnership units issued by the Operating Partnership ("common units"). The remaining 0.7 % of the common units are owned by the other limited partners of the Operating Partnership. For the Company to maintain its qualification as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), it cannot operate the hotels it owns. Therefore, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries lease the hotel properties to subsidiaries of Pebblebrook Hotel Lessee, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, "PHL"), a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), which in turn engage third-party eligible independent contractors to manage the hotels. PHL is consolidated into the Company’s financial statements.
COVID-19 Update
The COVID-19 pandemic, which began in early 2020, has had a significant negative impact on the Company's operations and financial results and is expected to continue to have a negative impact on the hotel industry and the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the remainder of 2022. Results improved in 2021 and have continued to improve through the first nine months of 2022. The Company exited its debt covenant waiver period under its credit facilities as of the end of the second quarter of 2022, and is in compliance with the covenants in the credit facility agreements. There remains significant uncertainty regarding the trends and outlook as a result of new variants and individual and government responses.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial information. As such, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, consolidated statements of equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full-year performance, as a result of the impact of seasonal and other short-term variations and the acquisitions and or dispositions of hotel properties. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The Company and its subsidiaries are separate legal entities and maintain records and books of accounts separate and apart from each other. The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

Table of Contents
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management’s best judgment after considering past, current and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The state of the overall economy can significantly impact the hotels' operational performance and thus the Company's financial position. As discussed in Note 1. Organization , the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the hotels' operational performance. There has been a significant recovery in travel, however, the emergence of new variant strains or other factors that may impact travel demand may impact the Company's cash flow and ability to service debt or meet other financial obligations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020 and January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting , and ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) , respectively. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 was effective upon issuance and, once adopted, may be applied prospectively to contract modifications and hedging relationships through December 31, 2022.
In 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Business Combinations
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers , to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to the recognition of an acquired contract liability and to payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendments in ASU 2021-08 require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts.
ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and early adoption is permitted. While the Company is continuing to assess the timing of adoption and the potential impacts of ASU 2021-08, it does not expect ASU 2021-08 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Note 3. Acquisition and Disposition of Hotel Properties
Acquisitions
On May 11, 2022, the Company acquired the 119 -room Inn on Fifth in Naples, Florida for $ 156.0 million, excluding prorations and transactions costs. This transaction was funded with cash on hand, the issuance of 16,291 common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership and 3,104,400 preferred units of the Operating Partnership designated as 6.0 % Series Z Preferred Units.
On June 23, 2022, the Company acquired the 257 -room Newport Harbor Island Resort (formerly Gurney's Newport Resort & Marina) in Newport, Rhode Island for $ 174.0 million, using cash on hand and proceeds from its senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The property was acquired as part of a reverse 1031 Exchange in which the Company engaged a qualified intermediary to establish a trust to hold the property pending completion of the sale of the subject property or properties related to the reverse 1031 Exchange. The trust was deemed to be a variable interest entity (VIE) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and therefore, the Company has consolidated the trust and property.

On September 27, 2022, LaPlaya Beach Resort and LaPlaya Beach Club ("LaPlaya") and Inn on Fifth, both located in Naples, Florida, and Southernmost Beach Resort located in Key West, Florida were impacted by the effects of Hurricane Ian. Inn on Fifth and Southernmost Beach Resort did not suffer significant damage and have been reopened. LaPlaya was closed in anticipation of the storm and remains closed as a result of the damage sustained from Hurricane Ian. The Company expects LaPlaya to re-open in stages beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022.
The Company’s insurance policies provide coverage for property damage, business interruption and reimbursement for other costs that were incurred relating to damages sustained during Hurricane Ian. Insurance proceeds are subject to deductibles. As of September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an impairment for the damage to LaPlaya and Southernmost Beach Resort, which resulted in an aggregate impairment loss of $ 12.9 million, which is included in impairment loss in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. The Company expects to incur additional costs related to the cleanup of the property and preparation of the property for reopening which are expected to be recovered through insurance proceeds. The Company is continuing to evaluate the financial impact of Hurricane Ian and its ability to recover, through insurance policies, any loss due to business interruption or damage to the hotel properties.
Impairment
The Company reviews its investment in hotel properties for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate potential impairment. As a result of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on its expected future operating cash flows and estimated hold periods for certain properties, the Company determined certain impairment triggers had occurred and therefore, the Company assessed its investment in hotel properties for recoverability. Based on the analyses performed, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $ 73.3 million related to two hotels as a result of their fair values being lower than their carrying values. The impairment loss was determined using Level 2 inputs under authoritative guidance for fair value measurements using information from marketing efforts for these properties. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $ 14.9 million related to one hotel as a result of its fair value being lower than its carrying value. The impairment loss was determined using Level 2 inputs under authoritative guidance for fair value measurements using information from marketing efforts for this property.
Right-of-use Assets and Lease Liabilities
The Company recognized right-of-use assets and related liabilities related to its ground leases, all of which are operating leases. When the rate implicit in the lease could not be determined, the Company used incremental borrowing rates, which ranged from 4.7 % to 7.6 %. In addition, the term used includes any options to exercise extensions when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise such options. See Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information about the ground leases.
The right-of-use assets and liabilities are amortized to ground rent expense over the term of the underlying lease agreements. As of September 30, 2022, the Company's lease liabilities consisted of operating lease liabilities of $ 320.3 million and financing lease liabilities of $ 42.5 million. As of December 31, 2021, the Company's lease liabilities consisted of operating lease liabilities of $ 319.4 million and financing lease liabilities of $ 42.0 million. The financing lease liabilities are included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company's accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Note 5. Debt
In 2021, the Company amended the agreements governing its existing credit facilities, term loan facilities and senior notes to, among other things, waive financial covenants until the second quarter of 2022 (with substantially less-restrictive covenants through the end of the first quarter of 2023), extend certain debt maturity dates and increase the interest rate spread.

As discussed in Note 13. Subsequent Events, on October 13, 2022, the Company refinanced its senior unsecured revolving credit facility and all of its term loans. As a result, the Company has no significant debt maturities due within one year.
Unsecured Revolving Credit Facilities
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had a $ 611.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity of March 2023, with options to extend the maturity date for up to two six-month periods , subject to certain terms and conditions and payment of an extension fee. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings, $ 12.6 million of outstanding letters of credit and a borrowing capacity of $ 598.4 million remaining on its senior unsecured credit facility. Interest is paid on the periodic advances under the senior unsecured revolving credit facility at varying rates, based upon either LIBOR or the alternate base rate, plus an additional margin amount, or spread. The Company had the ability to further increase the aggregate borrowing capacity under the credit agreement up to $ 1.3 billion, subject to lender approval. Borrowings on the revolving credit facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.45 % to 2.25 %, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. As a result of the amendments to the credit agreements, the spread on the borrowings was fixed at 2.40 % during the waiver period. Additionally, the Company was required to pay an unused commitment fee at an annual rate of 0.20 % or 0.30 % of the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, depending on the amount of borrowings outstanding. The credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a maximum percentage of secured debt to total asset value.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company also had a $ 20.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the "PHL Credit Facility") to be used for PHL's working capital and general corporate purposes. This credit facility had substantially similar terms as the Company's senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity of March 2023. Borrowings on the PHL Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.45 % to 2.25 %, depending on the Company's leverage ratio. As a result of the amendments described above, the spread of the borrowings was fixed at 2.40 % during the waiver period. The PHL Credit Facility was subject to debt covenants substantially similar to the covenants under the Company's credit agreement that governs the Company's senior unsecured revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no borrowings under the PHL Credit Facility and had a $ 20.0 million borrowing capacity remaining available under the PHL Credit Facility.
Under the terms of the credit agreement for the unsecured revolving credit facility, one or more standby letters of credit, up to a maximum aggregate outstanding balance of $ 30.0 million, may be issued on behalf of the Company by the lenders under the unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company will incur a fee that shall be agreed upon with the issuing bank. Any outstanding standby letters of credit reduce the available borrowings on the senior unsecured revolving credit facility by a corresponding amount. Standby letters of credit of $ 12.6 million and $ 12.1 million were outstanding as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants of the credit agreements that govern the unsecured revolving credit facilities.
Unsecured Term Loan Facilities
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had senior unsecured term loans with different maturities. Each unsecured term loan bore interest at a variable rate of a benchmark interest rate plus an applicable margin, depending on the Company's leverage ratio. Each of the term loan facilities was subject to debt covenants substantially similar to the covenants under the credit agreement that governs the revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants of its term loan facilities.
The Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR rate on a portion of these unsecured term loan facilities. See Derivative and Hedging Activities for further discussion on the interest rate swaps.
Convertible Senior Notes
In December 2020, the Company issued $ 500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75 % Convertible Senior Notes due December 2026 (the "Convertible Notes"). The net proceeds from this offering of the Convertible Notes were approximately $ 487.3 million after deducting the underwriting fees and other expenses paid by the Company.
In February 2021, the Company issued an additional $ 250.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. These additional Convertible Notes were sold at a 5.5 % premium to par and generated net proceeds of approximately $ 257.2 million after deducting the underwriting fees and other expenses paid by the Company of $ 6.5 million, which was offset by a premium received in the amount of $ 13.8 million.
The Convertible Notes are governed by an indenture (the “Base Indenture”) between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.75 % per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15th and December 15th of each year, beginning on June 15, 2021. The Convertible Notes will mature on December 15, 2026.
16
Table of Contents
The Company separated the Convertible Notes issued in December 2020 into liability and equity components. The initial carrying amount of the liability component was $ 386.1 million and was calculated using a discount rate of 6.25 %. The discount rate was based on the terms of debt instruments that were similar to the Convertible Notes. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the principal amount of such Convertible Notes, or $ 113.9 million. The amount recorded in equity was not subject to remeasurement or amortization. The $ 113.9 million also represented the initial discount recorded on the Convertible Notes. As a result of the Company's early adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021, the Convertible Notes are now recorded as a single liability with no portion recorded in equity. The Company also ceased recording non-cash interest expense associated with the amortization of the debt discount.
Prior to June 15, 2026, the Convertible Notes will be convertible upon certain circumstances. On and after June 15, 2026, holders may convert any of their Convertible Notes into the Company’s common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”) at the applicable conversion rate at any time at their election two days prior to the maturity date. The initial conversion rate is 39.2549 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $ 25.47 per share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the if-converted value of the Convertible Notes did not exceed the principal amount.
The Company may redeem for cash all or a portion of the Convertible Notes, at its option, on or after December 20, 2023 upon certain circumstances. The redemption price will be equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. If certain make-whole fundamental changes occur, the conversion rate for the Convertible Notes may be increased.
In connection with the Convertible Notes issuances, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain of the underwriters of the offerings of the Convertible Notes or their respective affiliates and other financial institutions. The Capped Call Transactions initially cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Convertible Notes, the number of common shares underlying the Convertible Notes. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to holders of common shares upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or offset the potential cash payments that the Company could be required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted Convertible Notes upon conversion thereof, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The upper strike price of the Capped Call Transactions is $ 33.0225 per share. The cost of the Capped Call Transactions entered into in December 2020 and February 2021 was $ 38.3 million and $ 21.0 million, respectively, and was recorded within additional paid-in capital.
Senior Unsecured Notes
The Company has $ 47.6 million of senior unsecured notes outstanding bearing a fixed interest rate of 4.70 % per annum and maturing in December 2023 (the "Series A Notes") and $ 2.4 million of senior unsecured notes outstanding bearing a fixed interest rate of 4.93 % per annum and maturing in December 2025 (the "Series B Notes"). In February 2021, as a result of the amendments described above, the interest rates of the Series A Notes and the Series B Notes increased to 5.15 % and 5.38 %, respectively. The debt covenants of the Series A Notes and the Series B Notes are substantially similar to those of the Company's senior unsecured revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all such debt covenants.
Mortgage Loans
On September 23, 2021, the Company assumed a $ 161.5 million loan secured by a first-lien mortgage on the leasehold interest of Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort ("Margaritaville"). The loan requires interest-only payments based on a floating interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus a weighted-average spread of 2.37 %. The loan matures on May 9, 2023 and may be extended by one-year . If the loan is extended, the interest rate spread will increase by 20 basis points for the extension period only. The Company expects to exercise this extension. The loan is also subject to an interest rate cap agreement.
On December 1, 2021, the Company assumed a $ 61.7 million loan secured by a first-lien mortgage on the leasehold interest of Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa ("Estancia"). The loan requires both principal and interest monthly payments based on a fixed interest rate of 5.07 %. The loan matures on September 1, 2028.
17
Table of Contents
The Company's mortgage loans associated with Margaritaville and Estancia are non-recourse to the Company except for customary carve-outs to the general non-recourse liability. The loans contain customary provisions regarding events of default, as well as customary cash management, cash trap and lockbox provisions. Cash trap provisions are triggered if the hotel's performance is below a certain threshold. Once triggered, all of the cash flow generated by the hotel is deposited directly into lockbox accounts and then swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of our lender. No event of default has occurred under the loan documents. Both mortgage loans triggered the cash trap provisions prior to their acquisition, but both properties reached profitability levels in 2022 that permitted the termination of the cash traps and all cash in the lockboxes has been released.
Interest Expense
The components of the Company's interest expense consisted of the following for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

Total interest expense $ 25,020 $ 22,930 $ 70,753 $ 73,065
Fair Value
The Company estimates the fair value of its fixed rate debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates, taking into consideration general market conditions and maturity of the debt with similar credit terms and is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt (unsecured senior notes, convertible senior notes and the Estancia mortgage loan) as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $ 676.5 million and $ 747.8 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Company's variable rate debt approximates its book value.
Derivative and Hedging Activities
The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to hedge against interest rate fluctuations. All of the Company's interest rate swaps are cash flow hedges. All unrealized gains and losses on these hedging instruments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.
The Company's interest rate swaps at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consisted of the following, by maturity date (dollars in thousands):
Aggregate Notional Value as of
Hedge Type Interest Rate Range Maturity September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Swap-cash flow 1.78 % - 1.79 %
January 2022 $ — $ 180,000
Swap-cash flow 1.64 % - 1.68 %

February 2026 290,000 290,000
Total $ 1,040,000 $ 1,320,000
The Company records all derivative instruments at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Fair values of interest rate swaps and caps are determined using the standard market methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts/payments and the discounted expected variable cash payments/receipts. Variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts and payments on the swaps are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves (Overnight Index Swap curves) and volatilities (Level 2 inputs). Derivatives expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements. The Company incorporates these counterparty credit risks in its fair value measurements. The Company believes it minimizes the credit risk by transacting with major creditworthy financial institutions.
18
Table of Contents
As of September 30, 2022, the Company's derivative instruments were in an asset position with an aggregate fair value of $ 39.1 million. None of the Company's derivative instruments were in a liability position as of September 30, 2022. Derivative assets are included in prepaid expenses and other assets and derivative liabilities are included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company expects approximately $ 21.2 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to interest expense within the next 12 months.

The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the redemption rights will be adjusted upon the occurrence of share splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro-rata share transactions, which otherwise would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of the Operating Partnership's limited partners or the Company's shareholders.
On November 30, 2018, in connection with the merger with LaSalle Hotel Properties ("LaSalle"), the Company issued 133,605 OP units in the Operating Partnership to third-party limited partners of LaSalle's operating partnership.

Of the 727,208 LTIP units outstanding at September 30, 2022, 127,111 LTIP units have vested.

Holders of Series Z Preferred Units are entitled to receive quarterly distributions at an annual rate of 6.0 % of the liquidation preference value of $ 25.00 per share.
At any time, holders of Series Z Preferred Units may elect to convert some or all of their units into any other series of the Operating Partnership’s preferred units outstanding at that time. After the second anniversary of the issuance of the Series Z Preferred Units, holders may elect to redeem some or all of their units for, at the Company’s election, cash, common shares having an equivalent value or preferred shares on a one-for-one basis. After the fifth anniversary of their issuance, the Company may redeem the Series Z Preferred Units for cash, common shares having an equivalent value or preferred shares on a one-for-one basis. At any time following a change of control of the Company, holders of Series Z Preferred Units may elect to redeem some or all of their units for, at the Company’s election, cash or common shares having an equivalent value.

Hotel Management Agreements
The Company’s hotel properties are operated pursuant to management agreements with various management companies.

The majority of the Company’s management agreements are terminable at will by the Company upon paying a termination fee and some are terminable by the Company upon sale of the property, with, in some cases, the payment of termination fees. Most of the agreements also provide the Company the ability to terminate based on failure to achieve defined operating performance thresholds. Termination fees range from zero to up to six times the annual base management and incentive management fees, depending on the agreement and the reason for termination. Certain of the Company’s management agreements are non-terminable except upon the manager’s breach of a material representation or the manager’s failure to meet performance thresholds as defined in the management agreement.
The management agreements require the payment of a base management fee generally between 1 % and 4 % of hotel revenues. Under certain management agreements, the management companies are also eligible to receive an incentive management fee if hotel operating income, cash flows or other performance measures, as defined in the agreements, exceed certain performance thresholds. The incentive management fee is generally calculated as a percentage of hotel operating income after the Company has received a priority return on its investment in the hotel.
