Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 7, 2014, a subsidiary of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (the "Company") entered into an agreement to acquire an upscale, full-service hotel and adjacent commercial real estate and land parcel in the Boston, Massachusetts region for $261.0 million from an unaffiliated third party. The Company expects to fund the purchase price with available cash and borrowings on its senior unsecured credit facility. The closing is expected to occur before the end of 2014, 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.
