Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 25, 2010, a subsidiary of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (the "Company") entered into an agreement to acquire an upscale full-service hotel in the Atlanta region for $105.0 million from an unaffiliated third party. The Company expects to fund the purchase price with proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering. The closing is expected to occur within 45 days, however, because the acquisition is subject to customary closing requirements and conditions, the Company can give no assurance that the transaction will be consummated during that time period, or at all.
