 Capitalized terms which are not defined in this Note shall have the meanings set forth in the Deed of
Trust. 
 1. Payment of Principal and Interest. Principal and interest under this Note shall be payable as follows: 
 (a) The Initial Interest Rate is the rate set forth on the front page of this Note. 
 (b) The Interest Rate will be reset by Holder, effective as of the first day of the second month following the month during which the Initial Advance
Date occurs, and thereafter shall be reset by Holder effective the first day of each successive one-month period thereafter during the term of the Loan (individually “Rate Reset Date” and collectively “Rate Reset
Dates”). The Interest Rate will be reset as aforesaid to the annual rate equal to (i) 0.70% plus (ii) the “LIBOR Rate” as of approximately 11:00 am London time on the second Business Day prior to each of the Rate
Reset Dates. A “Business Day” shall mean a day that both (x) commercial banks in London are open for international business (including dealings in dollar deposits) and (y) Holder is open for business in New York City; 

(c) The term “LIBOR Rate” as used herein shall mean the one-month London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars rounded
upwards if necessary to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of one percent appearing on the display
designated as page 3750 on the Dow Jones Telerate Service, or such other page as may replace page 3750 on that service (or such other service as may be nominated as the information vendor by the British Bankers’ Association for the purpose of
displaying British Bankers’ Association interest settlement rates for U.S. dollar deposits as the composite offered rate for London interbank deposits). If the aforementioned sources of the LIBOR Rate are no longer available, then the term
“LIBOR Rate” shall mean the one-month London interbank offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars rounded upwards if necessary to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of one percent as shown on the appropriate Bloomberg Financial Markets Services Screen or any successor index on such service under the heading
“USD”; 
 (d) Borrower shall pay interest only in advance on the Initial Advance Date for the period from and including the Initial
Advance Date to the end of the month of July 2006, and shall then pay interest only in arrears, on the first day of the month of September 2006 and thereafter Borrower shall make payments of interest only on the first day of each month through and
including the 24th month following the Advance Date. The entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan together
with all accrued interest and all other sums due under the Loan Documents, shall be paid on the Maturity Date; 
 (e) Interest shall be
calculated on a daily basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a three hundred sixty (360) day year; and, 
 (f) On the Maturity
Date (as the same may be extended pursuant to Section 13 hereof), a final payment in the aggregate amount of the unpaid principal sum evidenced by this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest, and all other sums evidenced by this Note or secured
by the Deed of Trust and/or any other Loan Documents as well as any future advances under the Deed of Trust that may be made to or on behalf of Borrower by Holder following the Advance Date (collectively, the “Secured
Indebtedness”), shall become immediately payable in full. 
  

 3 








 Borrower acknowledges and agrees that all or a substantial portion of the original Loan Amount shall be
outstanding and due on the Maturity Date (as the same may be extended pursuant to Section 13 hereof). 
 2. Application of
Payments. At the election of Holder, and to the extent permitted by law, all payments shall be applied in the order selected by Holder to any expenses, prepayment fees, late charges, escrow deposits and other sums due and payable under the Loan
Documents, and to unpaid interest at the Interest Rate or at the Default Rate, as applicable. The balance of any payments shall be applied to reduce the then unpaid Loan Amount. 
 3. Security. The covenants of the Deed of Trust are incorporated by reference into this Note. This Note shall evidence, and the Deed of Trust
shall secure, the Secured Indebtedness. 
 4. Late Charge. If any payment of interest, any payment of a Monthly Installment or any
payment of a required escrow deposit is not paid within 7 days after the due date, Holder shall have the option to charge Borrower the Late Charge. The Late Charge is for the purpose of defraying the expenses incurred in connection with handling and
processing delinquent payments and is payable in addition to any other remedy Holder may have. Unpaid Late Charges shall become part of the Secured Indebtedness and shall be added to any subsequent payments due under the Loan Documents. 

5. Acceleration Upon Default. At the option of Holder, if Borrower fails to pay any sum specified in this Note within 7 days of the due date,
or if an Event of Default occurs, the Secured Indebtedness, and all other sums evidenced and/or secured by the Loan Documents, including without limitation the Permitted Prepayment Fee (as defined in Section 8(b) below)) or the Default
Prepayment Fee (as defined in Section 9(b) below), respectively as the case may be (collectively, the “Accelerated Loan Amount”) shall become immediately due and payable. 
 6. Interest Upon Default. The Accelerated Loan Amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate which shall never exceed the maximum rate of
interest permitted to be contracted for under the laws of the State. The Default Rate shall commence upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and shall continue until all defaults are cured. 
 7. Limitation on Interest. The agreements made by Borrower with respect to this Note and the other Loan Documents are expressly limited so that in
no event shall the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Holder exceed the highest lawful amount of interest permissible under the laws applicable to the Loan. If at any time performance of any provision of this Note or the other
Loan Documents results in the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under applicable laws being exceeded, then the amount of interest received, charged or contracted for by Holder shall automatically and without further action by any party be
deemed to have been reduced to the highest lawful amount of interest then permissible under applicable laws. If Holder shall ever receive, charge or contract for, as interest, an amount which is unlawful, at Holder’s election, the amount of
unlawful interest shall be refunded to Borrower 
  

 4 








 (if actually paid) or applied to reduce the then unpaid Loan Amount. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws,
any amounts contracted for, charged or received under the Loan Documents included for the purpose of determining whether the Interest Rate would exceed the highest lawful rate shall be calculated by allocating and spreading such interest to and over
the full stated term of this Note. 
 8. Permitted Prepayment Fee. 
 (a) Borrower shall not have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Loan Amount at any time prior to the Permitted Prepayment Period after which,
Borrower may prepay the Secured Indebtedness in whole, but not in part, on no less than ten (10) days prior written notice to Holder, provided such prepayment is accompanied by the Permitted Prepayment Fee. If Borrower provides notice of its
intention to prepay, the Secured Indebtedness shall become due and payable on the date specified in the Prepayment Notice; provided, however, Borrower shall have the right two (2) times during the term of the Loan, including extension, to
rescind or extend a Prepayment Notice, provided that Borrower (x) provides Holder with not less than 5 (five) days prior written notice of such extension or rescission and (b) reimburses Holder for any out-of-pocket costs (but specifically
excluding any arising from any missed reinvestment opportunity) incurred by Holder as a result of Borrower’s original notice of intention to prepay the Loan. 
 (b) The “Permitted Prepayment Fee” shall be equal to (x) sixty-five basis points (0.65%) of the principal being prepaid during months 7 through 12 following the month in which the Initial Advance Date
occurs; (y) thirty-five basis points (0.35%) of the principal being prepaid during months 13 through 18 following the month in which the Initial Advance Date occurs; and (z) no basis points thereafter. No Prepayment Fee shall be payable
with respect to a prepayment of the Loan made after the last day of the 18th calendar month following the month in which the Initial Advance Date occurs. 
 9. Default Prepayment. 
 (a) Any tender of payment by Borrower or any other person or entity of the
Secured Indebtedness, other than as expressly provided in Section 8, shall constitute a prohibited prepayment. If a prepayment of all or any part of the Secured Indebtedness is made following (i) an Event of Default and an acceleration of
the Maturity Date, or (ii) in connection with a purchase of the Property or a repayment of the Secured Indebtedness at any time before, during or after, a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or sale of the Property, then to compensate Holder
for the loss of the investment, Borrower shall pay an amount equal to the Default Prepayment Fee (as hereinafter defined). 
 (b) The
“Default Prepayment Fee” shall be equal to (i) the greater of (x) the present value of all remaining Partial Monthly Payments of Interest (as defined below), discounted at the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to
the Treasury Rate (as defined below), compounded semi-annually, or (y) one percent (1%) of the amount of the principal being prepaid, plus (ii) the actual LIBOR breakage fee which shall be calculated and payable to Holder if a pricing
contract is in place at the time of such prepayment. 
  

 5 








 (i) A “Partial Monthly Payment of Interest” shall be defined as the outstanding
principal balance of the Loan multiplied by 0.70%, divided by 360, multiplied by 365 and divided by 12. The number of “remaining” Partial Monthly Payments of Interest to be used in the calculation of the Default Prepayment Fee shall be
equal to the number of remaining monthly installments of interest due on the Loan to and including the Maturity Date. 
 (ii) The
“Treasury Rate” shall be the annualized yield on securities issued by the United States Treasury having a maturity equal to the remaining stated term of the Note, as quoted in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release [H. 15
(519)] under the heading “U.S. Government Securities - Treasury Constant Maturities” for the date which is 5 Business Days prior to the date on which prepayment is being made. If this rate is not available on such date, the Treasury
Rate shall be determined by interpolating between the yield on securities of the next longer and next shorter maturity. If the Treasury Rate is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable rate. Holder will, upon request, provide an
estimate of the amount of the Default Prepayment Fee two weeks before the date of the scheduled prepayment for purposes of this provision 9(b). 
 10. Waiver of Right to Prepay Note Without Prepayment Fee. Borrower acknowledges that Holder has relied upon the anticipated investment return under this Note in entering into transactions with, and in making commitments to, third
parties and that the tender of any prohibited prepayment, shall, to the extent permitted by law, include the Prepayment Fee. Borrower agrees that the Prepayment Fee represents the reasonable estimate of Holder and Borrower of a fair average
compensation for the loss that may be sustained by Holder as a result of a prohibited prepayment of this Note and it shall be paid without prejudice to the right of Holder to collect any other amounts provided to be paid under the Loan Documents.

 BORROWER EXPRESSLY (A) WAIVES ANY RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 2954.10 TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN
PART, WITHOUT FEE OR PENALTY, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND (B) AGREES THAT IF, FOR ANY REASON, A PREPAYMENT OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, UPON OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON
ACCOUNT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BORROWER UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION WHICH IS PROHIBITED BY THE DEED OF TRUST, THEN BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY CONCURRENTLY THE PREPAYMENT
FEE SPECIFIED IN SECTION 9. BY INITIALING THIS PROVISION IN THE SPACE PROVIDED BELOW, BORROWER AGREES THAT HOLDER’S AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION FOR
THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT. 
 BORROWER’S INITIALS: RMB

respect. However, nothing contained in this Section or in the Loan Documents shall: 
 (a) prevent recourse to the Borrower or, if and to the
extent applicable, the Liable Party or the assets of Borrower, or, if and to the extent applicable, as provided in the Guaranty or Indemnity Agreement, the assets of the Liable Party, or enforcement of the Deed of Trust or other instrument or

(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, causes of action, suits, claims, demands and adjustments of any nature or description whatsoever) which may at any time be imposed upon, incurred by or awarded against Holder, in the
event (and arising out of such circumstances) that Borrower should raise any defense, counterclaim and/or allegation in any foreclosure action by Holder relative to the Property, or in any claim or action by Holder relative to the assignment of
Borrower’s rights to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (including the right to receive any proceeds derived therefore) or any part thereof, which is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been raised by Borrower or Operating Lessee in

thereof; provided however, that Holder shall have no right to recover such damages and losses described in this subparagraph 11 (f) from the Liable Party. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this limitation of liability shall not apply and the Loan will be a fully recourse Loan to Borrower and to Liable Party: 
 (i) in the event of any Transfer of the Property in violation of the Deed of Trust or in the event Borrower or Operating Lessee enters into any
indebtedness for borrowed money which is secured by a lien, security interest or other encumbrance of any part of the Property, other than the Loan and any related obligations to Holder or except either as allowed by the Deed of Trust or as accepted
or approved in the commercially reasonable discretion of Holder as evidenced in writing by an officer of Holder;

Documents; and (5) none of Borrower nor any Related Persons shall propose or consent to any use of cash collateral except with Holder’s consent, which may be withheld in Holder’s sole discretion. As used herein, a “Related
Person” shall mean (a) any guarantor or other person or entity which is liable in any way (including contingently liable) for any part of the Loan, (b) person or entity which has any direct or indirect interest in Borrower or in which
Borrower has any direct or indirect interest, or (c) any person who, by reason of any relationship with any of the foregoing, would be reasonably expected to act in accordance with the request of any of the foregoing. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees that its sole recourse against the Operating Lessee for Operating Lessee’s obligations hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents shall be to the collateral owned by Operating Lessee and pledged to Holder pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents; provided however, the foregoing shall not limit Holder’s rights against Borrower and/or
Liable Party with respect to the obligations of Operating Lessee to the extent otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents.

comprising Borrower and Liable Party and the credit of Borrower and Liable Party as well as all other features of the Loan shall be substantially identical to the condition existing as of the Initial Advance Date; provided, however, as it relates to
Liable Party, no Adverse Change shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to Liable Party as long as the Market Capitalization (as defined in Section 8.5(b) of the Deed of Trust) of Strategic Hotels and Resorts, Inc. is no less than
$1,000,000,000.00 and Strategic Hotels and Resorts, Inc., continues to own at least 95% of the equity of Liable Party; and, (ii) except as may be otherwise permitted by Holder, neither Borrower, nor any person or entity comprising Borrower or
which is a partner, member or shareholder of Borrower, nor any Liable Party, nor any tenant or combination of tenants renting 10% or more of the leased space in the Improvements, exclusive of guest rooms and conference rooms, nor any guarantor of

amounts disbursed to Borrower hereunder does not exceed the Loan Amount. 
 13. Extension of Maturity Date. 
 (a) Borrower shall have three (3) options to extend the Maturity Date for one (1) year each (the “Extension Options”).
Borrower’s right to exercise the Extension Options shall be subject to satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) there shall be no Event of Default under the Loan Documents, the Guaranty or the Indemnity Agreement at the time of the
exercise of any Extension Option; (ii) Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Holder in connection with such extension including title insurance premiums, documentation costs and reasonable attorneys fees; (iii) if and to
the extent applicable, prior to the commencement of the Extension Option, Borrower shall deliver an Interest Rate Cap Agreement covering the period of the Extension Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.9 of the Deed of Trust;

time on the second Business Day prior to the Maturity Date. Holder shall notify the Borrower of such initial Interest Rate and, if applicable, acceptable terms for the required Interest Rate Cap Agreement with respect to any extension prior to such
applicable Maturity Date. With respect to any extension, the Interest Rate will be reset by Holder effective the first day of the first month following the month during which the effective date of the extension occurred and thereafter the Interest
Rate shall be reset by Holder effective the first day of each successive one month period thereafter during the remaining term of the Loan (the “Extension Rate Reset Dates”). The Interest Rate will be reset as aforesaid to the rate
equal to the sum of (x) 0.70% plus (ii) the one-month LIBOR Rate as of approximately 11:00 am London time on the second Business Day prior to each of the Extension Rate Reset Dates. The process for determining and notifying the parties of
the initial and reset Interest Rate shall be the same as set forth with respect to the Interest Rate prior to the extension, except as modified in this Section 13.

waive notice of any amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of this Note, including the granting of extension of time for payment, whether made to or in favor of Borrower or any other person or persons. 
 15. Exercise of Rights. No single or partial exercise by Holder, or delay or omission in the exercise by Holder, of any right or remedy under the
Loan Documents shall waive or limit the exercise of any such right or remedy. Holder shall at all times have the right to proceed against any portion of or interest in the Property in the manner that Holder may deem appropriate, without waiving any
other rights or remedies. The release of any party under this Note shall not operate to release any other party which is liable under this Note and/or under the other Loan Documents or under the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement. 
 16. Fees and Expenses. If Borrower defaults under this Note, Borrower shall be personally liable for and shall pay to Holder, in addition to the
sums stated above, the costs and expenses of enforcement and collection, including a reasonable sum as an attorney’s fee. This obligation is not limited by Section 11. 
 17. No Amendments. This Note may not be modified or amended except in a writing executed by Borrower and Holder. No waivers shall be effective
unless they are set forth in a writing signed by the party which is waiving a right. This Note and the other Loan Documents are the final expression of the lending relationship between Borrower and Holder, and there is no unwritten agreement with
respect to the subject matter of the Loan. 
 18. Governing Law. This Note is to be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws
of California. 
 19. Construction. The words “Borrower” and “Holder” shall be deemed to include their respective
heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and shall denote the singular and/or plural, and the masculine and/or feminine, and natural and/or artificial persons, as appropriate. The provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect
notwithstanding any changes in the shareholders, partners or members of Borrower. If more than one party is Borrower, the obligations of each party shall be joint and several. The captions in this Note are inserted only for convenience of reference
and do not expand, limit or define the scope or intent of any section of this Note. 
 20. Notices. All notices, demands, requests and
consents permitted or required under this Note shall be given in the manner prescribed in the Deed of Trust.

 22. Severability. If any provision of this Note should be held unenforceable or void, then that
provision shall be deemed separable from the remaining provisions and shall not affect the validity of this Note, except that if that provision relates to the payment of any monetary sum, then Holder may, at its option, declare the Secured
Indebtedness (together with the Prepayment Fee) immediately due and payable.
