PART I



|Item 1. | Business
|------- | --------



General



The Company
was organized as a Maryland real estate investment trust on January 15, 1998 to buy, own and lease primarily upscale and luxury full-service hotels located in convention, resort and major urban business markets. As of December 31, 2005,
the Company owned interests in 26 hotels with approximately 8,300 rooms/suites located in eleven states and the District of Columbia. Independent hotel operators manage the hotels. The Company is a self-managed and self-administered real estate
investment trust (REIT) as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). A REIT is a legal entity that holds real estate interests, and that may reduce its federal taxable income to the extent it
distributes taxable dividends to its shareholders.



Substantially all of the Companys assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership. The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company owned approximately
99.6% of the common units of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2005. The remaining 0.4% is held by limited partners who hold 143,090 limited partnership common units at December 31, 2005. Common units of the Operating Partnership
are redeemable for cash or, at the option of the Company, for a like number of common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company. In addition, another limited partner owns 2,348,888 preferred units of limited interest
in the Operating Partnership having an aggregate liquidation value of approximately $58.7 million and bearing an annual cumulative distribution of 7.25% on the liquidation preference. The hotels are leased under participating leases that provide for
rental payments equal to the greater of (i) base rent or (ii) participating rent based on fixed percentages of gross hotel revenues.



The Companys principal offices are located at 3 Bethesda Metro Center, Suite 1200, Bethesda, MD 20814. The Companys website is
www.lasallehotels.com. The Company makes available on its website free of charge its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and
amendments to those reports.



Strategies and Objectives



The Companys primary objectives are to provide a stable stream of
income to its shareholders through increases in distributable cash flow and to increase long-term total returns to shareholders through appreciation in the value of its common shares of beneficial interest. To achieve these objectives, the Company
seeks to:



| |  |  | enhance the return from, and the value of, the hotels in which it owns interests and any additional hotels the Company may acquire or develop; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | invest in or acquire additional hotel properties on favorable terms.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



The Company seeks to achieve revenue growth principally through:



| |  |  | renovations, repositioning and/or expansions at selected hotels;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquisitions of full-service hotels located in convention, resort and major urban markets in the U.S. and abroad, especially upscale and luxury full-service hotels in such markets
where the Company perceives strong demand growth or significant barriers to entry; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | selective development of hotel properties, particularly upscale and luxury full-service hotels in high barrier to entry and high demand markets where development economics are
favorable.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Company intends to acquire
additional hotels in target markets, consistent with the growth strategies outlined above and which may:



| |  |  | possess unique competitive advantages in the form of location, physical facilities or other attributes;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



2



---

| |  |  | be available at significant discounts to replacement cost, including when such discounts result from reduced competition for hotels with long-term management and/or franchise
agreements;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | benefit from brand or franchise conversion, new management, renovations or redevelopment or other active and aggressive asset management strategies; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have expansion opportunities.
| | - |  | -----------------------------



The Company seeks to grow through strategic relationships with premier, internationally recognized hotel operating companies, including Westin Hotels and
Resorts, Sheraton Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc., Crestline Hotels & Resorts, Inc., Outrigger Lodging Services, Noble House Hotels and Resorts, Hyatt Hotels Corporations, Kimpton Hotel & Restaurant Group, L.L.C., Hilton Hotels
Corporation, Benchmark Hospitality, White Lodging Services Corporation, Davidson Hotel Company and Sandcastle Resorts & Hotels. The Company believes that having multiple independent operators creates a network that will generate acquisition
opportunities. In addition, the Company believes its acquisition capabilities are enhanced by its considerable experience, resources and relationships in the hotel industry specifically and the real estate industry generally.

shares to cover over-allotments. This option may be exercised any time before March 3, 2006. As of February 22, 2006 this option has not been exercised.



On February 8, 2006, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 3,050,000 shares of 8.0% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Shares (the Series E Preferred Shares) par value $0.01 per share (liquidation preference $25.00 per share). After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering costs, the Company raised net proceeds of approximately $74.3
million. The net proceeds will be used to repay existing indebtedness under the Companys senior unsecured credit facility and for general corporate purposes including acquisitions. On February 16, 2006, the Company issued an additional
450,000 Series E Preferred Shares pursuant to an over-allotment option for approximately $11.0 million after deducting underwriters discounts and commissions.



On February 15, 2006, the tax-exempt special project revenue bond and the taxable special project revenue bond, both issued by the Massachusetts
Port Authority, were remarketed with the supporting letters of credit being provided by Royal Bank of Scotland, replacing GE Commercial Credit. The cost of the supporting letters of credit was reduced from 2% to 1.35%. The bonds are secured by the
letters of credit and the letters of credit are secured by the Harborside Hyatt Conference Center & Hotel.



On February 21, 2006, the Washington Grande Hotel (formerly the Holiday Inn Downtown) was closed for renovations. The Company plans to invest over
$21 million in a renovation and repositioning similar to those performed on the Companys DC Urban Collection purchased in March 2001. After completion of the renovation and repositioning in early 2007, the hotel will be operated as a luxury
high-style, independent hotel.



Hotel Dispositions



Effective May 9, 2005, the Company entered into an exclusive listing
agreement for the sale of the Seaview Resort and Spa. The asset was classified as held for sale at that time because the property was being actively marketed and the sale was expected to occur within one year; accordingly, depreciation was
suspended. Based on initial pricing expectations, the Company expected to recognize a gain on the sale; therefore, no impairment had been recognized. In September 2005, the Company changed its intent to sell the Seaview Resort and Spa. Though
pricing was above the book value of the asset, it was below the Companys target. The Company evaluated the carrying value of the hotel and determined no impairment exists. The Company reclassified the Seaview Resort and Spa as held and used
and adjusted for depreciation expense of $1.0 million in the third quarter that would have been recognized had the asset been continuously classified as held and used.



Hotel Renovations



The Company believes that its regular program of capital improvements at the hotels, including replacement and refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and
equipment, helps maintain and enhance its competitiveness and



4



---

maximizes revenue growth under the participating leases. As of December 31, 2005, purchase orders and letters of commitment totaling approximately $16.5
million had been issued for renovations at the hotels. The Company has committed to these projects and anticipates making similar arrangements with the existing hotels or any future hotels that it may acquire. Any unexpended amounts will remain the
property of the Company upon termination of the participating leases.



Tax
Status



The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT
under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. As a result, the Company generally is not subject to corporate income tax on that portion of its net income that is currently distributed to shareholders. A REIT is subject to a number of highly technical
and complex organizational and operational requirements, including requirements with respect to the nature of its gross income and assets and a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its taxable income. The Company may, however, be
subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property.



Effective January 1, 2001, the Company elected to operate its wholly-owned subsidiary, LHL, as provided for under the REIT Modernization Act as a taxable-REIT subsidiary. Accordingly, LHL is required to pay corporate income taxes at
the applicable rates.



Seasonality



The hotels operations historically have been seasonal. The hotels
maintain higher occupancy rates during the second and third quarters. The Seaview Resort and Spa and Lansdowne Resort, which generate a portion of their revenues from golf-related business, and the Hotel Viking, have revenues that fluctuate
according to the season and the weather. These seasonality patterns can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Companys quarterly lease revenue under the participating leases with third-party lessees and hotel operating revenue from LHL.



Competition



The hotel industry is highly competitive. Each of the hotels is located in a
developed area that includes other hotel properties. The number of competitive hotel properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on occupancy, average daily rate and room revenue per available room of the Companys
current hotels or at hotels acquired in the future. The Company may be competing for investment opportunities with entities that have substantially greater financial resources than the Company. These entities may generally be able to accept more
risk than the Company can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of a hotel operator or the geographic proximity of its investments. Competition may generally reduce the number of suitable investment opportunities
offered to the Company and increase the bargaining power of property owners seeking to sell.



Environmental Matters



In connection with the ownership of hotels, the Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to environmental protection. Under these laws, a current or previous owner or operator of real
estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for,
the presence of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, the presence of contamination from hazardous or toxic substances, or the failure to remediate such contaminated property properly, may adversely affect the owners ability to borrow
using such property as collateral. Furthermore, a person who arranges for the disposal or treatment of a hazardous or toxic substance at a property owned by another, or who transports such substance to or from such property, may be liable for the
costs of removal or remediation of such substance released into the environment at the disposal or treatment facility. The costs of



5



---

remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial, and the presence of such substances may adversely affect the owners ability to sell such
real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral. In connection with the ownership of hotels the Company may be potentially liable for such costs.



The Company believes that its hotels are in compliance, in all material respects, with all federal, state and local environmental ordinances and
regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances and other environmental matters, the violation of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company has not received written notice from any governmental authority of any
material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of its present properties.



Employees



The Company had 27 employees as of February 15, 2006. All persons employed in the day-to-day operations of the hotels are employees of the management
companies engaged by the lessees to operate such hotels.



Additional
Information



The Company has made available copies of the
charters of the committees of the board of trustees, its code of ethics and conduct, its corporate governance guidelines and its whistleblower policy on its website at www.lasallehotels.com. Copies of these documents are available in print to
any shareholder who requests them. Requests should be sent to LaSalle Hotel Properties, 3 Bethesda Metro Center, Suite 1200, Bethesda, Maryland, 20814. Attn: Hans S. Weger, Corporate Secretary.



Compliance with NYSE Corporate Governance Standards



Each year, the chief executive officer of each company listed on the New
York Stock Exchange must certify to the NYSE that he or she is not aware of any violation by the company of NYSE corporate governance listing standards as of the date of certification, qualifying the certification to the extent necessary. Last year,
the Companys chief executive officer timely submitted the required certification to the NYSE. The Companys chief executive officer subsequently provided an updated certificate disclosing that while the Companys non-management
trustees regularly met in executive session, the Company had not disclosed in its proxy statement that the non-management trustees met in such sessions or that a single trustee presided over the sessions or the procedure by which a presiding trustee
was selected. The Company also subsequently issued a press release disclosing that the non-management trustees regularly met in executive session, as required by NYSE, and that the Board of Trustees had determined that the chairman of the Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Trustees would preside over future executive sessions.



In addition, the NYSE requires each listed company to disclose that the Company filed with the SEC, as an exhibit to the companys most recently
filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, the certification regarding the quality of the companys public disclosure required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K is such
certificate, and this Form 10-K and the certificate have been filed with the SEC.



|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------



Additional Factors that May Affect Future Results



The following risk factors and other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K should be carefully considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones the Company faces.
Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that it may currently deem immaterial also may impair its business operations. If any of the following risks occur, the Companys business, financial condition, operating
results and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.



6



---

The Companys return on its hotels depends upon the ability of the lessees and the hotel operators to operate and
manage the hotels.



To maintain its status as a REIT, the
Company is not permitted to operate any of its hotels. As a result, the Company is unable to directly implement strategic business decisions with respect to the operation and marketing of its hotels, such as decisions with respect to the setting of
room rates, repositioning of a hotel, food and beverage prices and certain similar matters. Although the Company consults with the lessees and hotel operators with respect to strategic business plans, the lessees and hotel operators are under no
obligation to implement any of the Companys recommendations with respect to such matters. Thus, even if the Company believes its hotels are being operated inefficiently or in a manner that does not result in satisfactory occupancy rates,
revenue per available room, average daily rates or operating profits, the Company may not have sufficient rights under its hotel operating agreements to enable it to force the hotel operator to change its method of operation. The Company generally
can only seek redress if a hotel operator violates the terms of the applicable operating agreement, and then only to the extent of the remedies provided for under the terms of the agreement. Some of the Companys operating agreements have
lengthy terms and may not be terminable by the Company before the agreements expiration. In the event that the Company is able to and does replace any of its hotel operators, the Company may experience significant disruptions at the affected
hotels, which may adversely affect its ability to make distributions to its shareholders.



The Companys performance and its ability to make distributions on its shares are subject to risks associated with the hotel industry.



Competition for guests, increases in operating costs, dependence on travel and economic conditions could adversely affect
the Companys cash flow.    The Companys hotels are subject to all operating risks common to the hotel industry. These risks include:



| |  |  | competition for guests and meetings from other hotels including competition and pricing pressure from internet wholesalers and distributors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in operating costs, including wages, benefits, insurance, property taxes and energy, due to inflation and other factors, which may not be offset in the future by increased
room rates;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | labor strikes, disruptions or lockouts that may impact operating performance;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | dependence on demand from business and leisure travelers, which may fluctuate and be seasonal;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in energy costs, airline fares and other expenses related to travel, which may negatively affect traveling;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | terrorism, terrorism alerts and warnings, military actions such as the engagement in Iraq, and SARs, pandemics or other medical events which may cause decreases in business and
leisure travel; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adverse effects of weak general and local economic conditions.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



These factors could adversely affect the ability of the lessees (including the Companys taxable-REIT subsidiary lessees) to generate revenues and to
make rental payments to the Company.



Unexpected capital
expenditures could adversely affect the Companys cash flow.    Hotels require ongoing renovations and other capital improvements, including periodic replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment.
Under the terms of its leases, the Company is obligated to pay the cost of certain capital expenditures at the hotels, including new brand standards, and to pay for periodic replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment. If
capital expenditures exceed expectations, there can be no assurance that sufficient sources of financing will be available to fund such expenditures.



In addition, the Company has acquired hotels that are undergoing or will undergo significant renovation and may acquire additional hotels in the future
that require significant renovation. Renovations of hotels involve numerous risks, including the possibility of environmental problems, construction cost overruns and delays, the effect on current demand, uncertainties as to market demand or
deterioration in market demand after commencement of renovation and the emergence of unanticipated competition from other hotels.



7



---

The Companys obligation to comply with financial covenants in its senior unsecured credit facility and mortgages
on some of its hotel properties could restrict its range of operating activities.



The Company has a senior unsecured credit facility with a syndicate of banks, which provides for a maximum borrowing of up to $300.0 million. The senior unsecured facility matures on June 9, 2008 and has a
one-year extension option.



The Companys credit facility
contains financial covenants that could restrict its ability to incur additional indebtedness or make distributions on its shares. The senior unsecured credit facility contains certain financial covenants relating to debt service coverage, net worth
and total funded indebtedness; it also contains financial covenants that, assuming no continuing defaults, allow the Company to make shareholder distributions that, when combined with the distributions to shareholders in the three immediately
preceding fiscal quarters, do not exceed the greater of (i) 90% of the funds from operations from the preceding four-quarter rolling period or (ii) the greater of (a) the amount of distributions required for the Company to maintain
its status as a REIT or (b) the amount required to ensure that the Company will avoid imposition of an excise tax for failure to make certain minimum distributions on a calendar-year basis. Availability under the credit facility may be reduced
by hotel financing that the Company obtains outside the credit facility. The credit facility financial covenants could adversely affect the Companys financial condition.



LHL has a senior unsecured credit facility with U.S. Bank National Association, which provides for a maximum borrowing of up
to $25.0 million. The senior unsecured credit facility matures on June 9, 2008. The senior unsecured credit facility contains certain financial covenants relating to debt service coverage, minimum tangible net worth and total funded
indebtedness.



The Sheraton Bloomington Hotel Minneapolis
South, Westin City Center Dallas, Le Montrose Suite Hotel, San Diego Paradise Point Resort, Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, Hilton Alexandria Old Town, Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, Westin Copley Place and the University Tower Hotel are each
mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness aggregating approximately $489.7 million as of December 31, 2005. The Harborside Hyatt Conference Center & Hotel is mortgaged to secure payment of principal and interest on bonds with an
aggregate par value of approximately $42.5 million. In addition, the joint venture that owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown in which the Company holds a non-controlling 9.9% equity interest is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness of $140.0
million. The Companys pro rata share of the loan is approximately $13.9 million. If the Company is unable to meet mortgage payments, the mortgage securing the specific property could be foreclosed upon by, or the property could be otherwise
transferred to, the mortgagee with a consequent loss of income and asset value to the Company. From time to time, the Company may mortgage additional hotels to secure payment of additional indebtedness.



The Companys performance is subject to real estate industry conditions and the terms
of its leases.



Because real estate investments are
illiquid, the Company may not be able to sell hotels when desired.    Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly. The Company may not be able to vary its portfolio promptly in response to economic or other
conditions. In addition, provisions of the Code limit a REITs ability to sell properties in some situations when it may be economically advantageous to do so.



Liability for environmental matters could adversely affect the Companys financial
condition.    As an owner of real property, the Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment that may require a current or previous owner of real
estate to investigate and clean-up hazardous or toxic substances at a property. These laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants, and liability is not limited under the
enactments and could exceed the value of the property and/or the aggregate assets of the owner. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances at a facility, whether or not such facility is owned or operated by
the person, may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of such substance released into the environment at the disposal or treatment facility. Even if more than one person were responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the
environmental laws may be held responsible for the entire amount of clean-up costs incurred.



8



---

Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos-containing materials.
These laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with asbestos-containing materials. In connection
with ownership (direct or indirect) of its hotels, the Company may be considered an owner or operator of properties with asbestos-containing materials. Having arranged for the disposal or treatment of contaminants, the Company may be potentially
liable for removal, remediation and other costs, including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property.



The costs of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other government regulations could adversely affect the Companys cash
flow.    Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or ADA, all public accommodations are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. A determination that the Company
is not in compliance with the ADA could result in imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. If the Company is required to make substantial modifications to its hotels, whether to comply with ADA or other government regulation
such as building codes or fire safety regulations, its financial condition, results of operations and ability to make shareholder distributions could be adversely affected.



Certain leases and management agreements may constrain the Company from acting in the best interests of shareholders or
require it to make certain payments.    The Harborside Hyatt Conference Center & Hotel, the San Diego Paradise Point Resort, Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, Hilton San Diego Resort and one of two golf courses, the
Pines, at Seaview Resort and Spa are each subject to a ground lease with a third-party lessor. The Westin Copley Place is subject to a long term air rights lease with a third party lessor and requires no payments through maturity. The ground leases
for the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown and the Pines golf course at Seaview Resort and Spa are each for one dollar per year. In order for the Company to sell any of these hotels or to assign its leasehold interest in any of these ground leases, it
must first obtain the consent of the relevant third-party lessor. A parking lot at the Sheraton Bloomington Hotel Minneapolis South is also subject to a ground lease with a third-party lessor; third-party lessor consent is required to assign the
leasehold interest unless the assignment is in conjunction with the sale of the hotel. Accordingly, if the Company determines that the sale of any of these hotels or the assignment of its leasehold interest in any of these ground leases is in the
best interest of its shareholders, the Company may be prevented from completing such a transaction if it is unable to obtain the required consent from the relevant lessor.



In some instances, the Company may be required to obtain the consent of the hotel operator or franchisor prior to selling
the hotel. Typically, such consent is only required in connection with certain proposed sales, such as if the proposed purchaser is engaged in the operation of a competing hotel or does not meet certain minimum financial requirements. Hotels where
operator approval of certain sales may be required include the Chicago Marriott Downtown and Harborside Hyatt Conference Center & Hotel.



The Westin City Center Dallas is a unit of a commercial condominium complex and is subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the owner of the
remaining condominium units. The Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter is a unit of a commercial condominium complex and is not subject to a right of first refusal by the owner of the remaining condominium units. In addition, the Company is subject to
certain rights of first refusal or similar rights with respect to the following hotels: LaGuardia Airport Marriott and Seaview Resort and Spa. The Company is subject to a franchisors right of first offer with respect to the Hilton Alexandria
Old Town, Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, and Hilton San Diego Resort.



If the Company determines to terminate a lease with a third-party lessee (other than in connection with a default by such lessee), it may be required to pay a termination fee calculated based upon the value of the
lease.



Increases in interest rates may increase the Companys interest
expense.



As of December 31, 2005, approximately
$87.5 million of aggregate indebtedness (15.2% of total indebtedness) was subject to variable interest rates. The aggregate indebtedness balance includes the Companys



9



---

$14.3 million pro rata portion of indebtedness relating to the Companys joint venture investment in the Chicago Marriott Downtown hotel. An increase in
interest rates could increase the Companys interest expense and reduce its cash flow and may affect its ability to make distributions to shareholders and to service its indebtedness.



Failure to qualify as a REIT would be costly.



The Company has operated (and intends to so operate in the future) so as to
qualify as a REIT under the Code beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. Although management believes that the Company is organized and operated in a manner to so qualify, no assurance can be given that the Company will qualify
or remain qualified as a REIT.



If the Company fails to qualify
as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. Moreover, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, the
Company also will be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. This treatment would cause the Company to incur additional tax liabilities and would significantly impair
the Companys ability to service indebtedness, and reduce the amount of cash available to make new investments or to make distributions on its common shares of beneficial interest and preferred shares.



New legislation, enacted October 22, 2004, contained several provisions
applicable to REITs, including provisions that could provide relief in the event the Company violates certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code that otherwise would result in its failure to qualify as a REIT. The Company cannot assure that
these relief provisions would apply if the Company failed to comply with the REIT qualification laws. Even if the relief provisions do apply, the Company would be subject to a penalty tax of at least $50,000 for each disqualifying event in most
cases.



Property ownership through partnerships and joint ventures could
limit the Companys control of those investments.



Partnership or joint venture investments may involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by the Company, including the possibility that its co-investors might become bankrupt, might at any time have different interests
or goals from those of the Company, and may take action contrary to the Companys instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including its policy with respect to maintaining its qualification as a REIT. Other risks of joint venture
investments include an impasse on decisions, such as a sale, because neither the Companys co-investors nor the Company would have full control over the partnership or joint venture. There is no limitation under the Companys
organizational documents as to the amount of funds that may be invested in partnerships or joint ventures.



Tax consequences upon a sale or refinancing of properties may result in conflicts of interest, and a hotel sale or refinancing may trigger tax indemnification obligations.



Holders of units of limited partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership or co-investors in properties not owned entirely by the Company may suffer different and more adverse tax consequences than the Company upon the sale or refinancing of properties. The Company may have different objectives from these
co-investors and unitholders regarding the appropriate pricing and timing of any sale or refinancing of these properties. While the Company, as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has the exclusive authority as to whether and on
what terms to sell or refinance each property owned solely by the Operating Partnership, one of its trustees who has interests in units of limited partnership interest may seek to influence the Company not to sell or refinance the properties, even
though such a sale might otherwise be financially advantageous to it, or may seek to influence the Company to refinance a property with a higher level of debt.



In addition, [in one case] the Company has agreed to indemnify the sellers of a hotel acquired by the Company against certain tax consequences if the
Company sells the hotel before a specific date. The Company could agree to additional similar tax indemnification obligations in connection with future acquisitions. These obligations may make it costly for the Company to sell the affected hotel
during the indemnification period.



10



---

The Company may not have enough insurance.



The Company carries comprehensive liability, fire, flood, earthquake, extended coverage and business interruption policies
that insure it against losses with policy specifications and insurance limits that the Company believes are reasonable. There are certain types of losses, such as losses from environmental problems or terrorism, that management may not be able to
insure against or may decide not to insure against since the cost of insuring is not economical. The Company may suffer losses that exceed its insurance coverage. Further, market conditions, changes in building codes and ordinances or other factors
such as environmental laws may make it too expensive to repair or replace a property that has been damaged or destroyed, even if covered by insurance.



The Companys organizational documents and agreements with its executives and applicable Maryland law contain provisions that may delay, defer or prevent change
of control transactions and may prevent shareholders from realizing a premium for their shares.



The Companys trustees serve staggered three-year terms, the trustees may only be removed for cause and remaining trustees may fill board
vacancies.    The Companys Board of Trustees is divided into three classes of trustees, each serving staggered three-year terms. In addition, a trustee may only be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the Companys outstanding common shares. The Companys declaration of trust and bylaws also provide that a majority of the remaining trustees may fill any vacancy on the Board of Trustees and further effectively
provide that only the Board of Trustees may increase or decrease the number of persons serving on the Board of Trustees. These provisions preclude shareholders from removing incumbent trustees, except for cause after a majority affirmative vote, and
filling the vacancies created by such removal with their own nominees.



The Companys Board of Trustees may approve the issuance of shares with terms that may discourage a third party from acquiring the Company.    The Board of Trustees has the power under the declaration of
trust to classify any of the Companys unissued preferred shares, and to reclassify any of the Companys previously classified but unissued preferred shares of any series from time to time, in one or more series of preferred shares,
without shareholder approval. The issuance of preferred shares could adversely affect the voting power, dividend and other rights of holders of common shares and the value of the common shares.



The Companys declaration of trust prohibits ownership of more than
9.8% of the common shares or 9.8% of any series of preferred shares.    To qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, no more than 50% of the value of the Companys outstanding shares may be owned, directly or
under applicable attribution rules, by five or fewer individuals (as defined to include certain entities) during the last half of each taxable year. The Companys declaration of trust generally prohibits direct or indirect ownership by any
person of (i) more than 9.8% of the number or value (whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding common shares or (ii) more than 9.8% of the number or value (whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding shares of any class or
series of preferred shares. Generally, shares owned by affiliated owners will be aggregated for purposes of the ownership limitation. Any transfer of shares that would violate the ownership limitation will result in the shares that would otherwise
be held in violation of the ownership limit being designated as shares-in-trust and transferred automatically to a charitable trust effective on the day before the purported transfer or other event giving rise to such excess ownership.
The intended transferee will acquire no rights in such shares.



The Maryland Business Combination Statute applies to the Company.    A Maryland business combination statute contains provisions that, subject to limitations, prohibit certain business combinations
between the Company and an interested stockholder (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of the Companys shares or an affiliate thereof) for five years after the most recent date on
which the shareholder becomes an interested stockholder, and thereafter impose special shareholder voting requirements on these combinations.



The Board of Trustees may choose to subject the Company to the Maryland Control Share Act.    A Maryland law known as the
Maryland Control Share Act provides that control shares of a company (defined



11



---

as shares which, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the acquiring shareholder, entitle the shareholder to exercise one of three increasing
ranges of voting power in electing trustees) acquired in a control share acquisition (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of control shares) have no voting rights except to the extent
approved by the companys shareholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares. The Companys bylaws currently provide that the Company is not
subject to these provisions. However, the Board of Trustees, without shareholder approval, may repeal this bylaw and cause the Company to become subject to the Maryland Control Share Act.



Other provisions of the Companys organization documents may delay or prevent a change of control of the
Company.    Among other provisions, the Companys organizational documents provide that the number of trustees constituting the full Board of Trustees may be fixed only by the trustees and that a special meeting of
shareholders may not be called by holders of common shares holding less than a majority of the outstanding common shares entitled to vote at such meeting.



The Companys executive officers have agreements that provide them with benefits in the event of a change in control of the
Company.    The Company entered into agreements with its executive officers that provide them with severance benefits if their employment ends under certain circumstances within one year following a change in
control of the Company (as defined in the agreements) or if the executive officer resigns for good reason (as defined in the agreements). These benefits could increase the cost to a potential acquiror of the Company and thereby
prevent or deter a change in control of the Company that might involve a premium price for the common shares or otherwise be in the interests of the Companys shareholders.

expenditures. The third-party participating leases expire between 2008 and 2009.



|Item 3. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------



The nature of the operations of the hotels exposes the hotels to the risk of claims and litigation in the normal course of their business. Although the
outcome of these matters cannot be determined, management does not expect the ultimate resolution of these matters to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, operations or liquidity of the hotels.



The Company has engaged Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. to
manage and operate its Dallas hotel under the Westin brand affiliation. Meridien Hotels, Inc. (Meridien) affiliates had been operating the Dallas property as a wrongful holdover tenant, until the Westin brand conversion occurred on
July 14, 2003 under court order.



On December 20,
2002, affiliates of Meridien abandoned the Companys New Orleans hotel. The Company entered into a lease with a wholly-owned subsidiary of LHL and an interim management agreement with Interstate Hotels & Resorts, Inc., and re-named the
hotel the New Orleans Grande Hotel. The New Orleans property thereafter was sold on April 21, 2003 for $92.5 million.



In connection with the termination of the Meridien affiliates at these hotels, the Company is currently in litigation with Meridien and related
affiliates. The Company believes its sole potential obligation in connection with the termination of the leases is to pay fair market value of the leases, if any. With respect to the Dallas hotel, the Company has obtained a judgment from the court
that Meridien defaulted and that Meridien is not entitled to the payment of fair market value. The Companys damage claims against Meridien went to trial in March 2005, and a final judgment was entered for the Company in the amount of $3.9
million, plus post-judgment interest. Meridien has indicated that it plans to appeal. With respect to the New Orleans hotel, arbitration of the fair market value of the New Orleans lease commenced in October 2002. On December 19, 2002, the
arbitration panel determined that Meridien was entitled to an award of approximately $5.7 million, subject to adjustment (reduction) by the courts to account for Meridiens holdover. In order to dispute the arbitration decision, the Company was
required to post a $7.8 million surety bond, which was secured by $5.9 million of restricted cash. The Company successfully challenged the award on appeal, and the dispute was remanded to the trial court. Meridiens request for rehearing was
denied on March 31, 2004, and Meridien did not petition to the Louisiana Supreme Court. In June 2004, the $7.8 million surety bond was released and the $5.9 million restricted cash securing it was returned to the Company. The issue of default
by the lessee and the Companys wrongful holdover claim, as well as Meridiens damage claims arising from the termination of its leasehold, among other claims, went to trial in February 2005. On June 9, 2005, the trial court issued
its judgment denying the Companys default claim as well as Meridiens fraud claim, and re-determined fair market value to be $8.6 million, plus interest. The Company has noticed an appeal from the trial courts judgment.
On July 18, 2005, the Company posted a $8.6 million surety bond, which was secured by $8.8 million of restricted cash.



On April 22, 2005, the Company filed suit against Meridien in Delaware state court alleging certain defaults, including non-payment of rent and other
breaches in connection with the transition at the New Orleans hotel. Preliminary motions are set to be heard in February 2006. That matter has not yet been set for trial.

In 2002, the Company recognized a net $2.5 million contingent lease termination expense and reversed
previously deferred assets and liabilities related to the termination of both the New Orleans property and Dallas property leases and recorded a corresponding contingent liability included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet. The Company believes, however, it is owed holdover rent per the lease terms due to Meridiens failure to vacate the properties as required under the leases. The contingent lease termination expense was, therefore,
net of the holdover rent the Company believes it is entitled to for both properties. In 2003, the Company adjusted this liability by additional holdover rent of $0.8 million that it believes it is entitled to for the Dallas property. These amounts
were recorded as other income in the Companys December 31, 2003 consolidated financial statements. The contingent lease termination expense recognized cumulatively since 2002 is comprised of (dollars in thousands):

In September 2004,
after evaluating the ongoing Meridien litigation, the Company accrued additional net legal fees of $0.9 million due to litigation timeline changes in order to conclude this matter. In June 2005, after further evaluation of the ongoing Meridien
litigation, the Company accrued an additional $1.0 million in legal fees. As a result, the net contingent lease termination liability has a balance of approximately $1.7 million as of December 31, 2005, which is included in accounts payable and
accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Based on the claims the Company has against Meridien, the Company is and will continue to challenge Meridiens claim that it is entitled to the payment of fair market value, and
will continue to seek reimbursement of legal fees and damages. These amounts may exceed or otherwise may be used to offset any amounts potentially owed to Meridien, and therefore, ultimately may offset or otherwise reduce any contingent lease
termination expense. Additionally, the Company cannot provide any assurances that the holdover rents or any damages will be collectible from Meridien or that the amounts due will not be greater than the recorded contingent lease termination expense.



The Company maintained a lien on Meridiens security
deposit on both disputed properties with an aggregate value of approximately $3.3 million, in accordance with the lease agreements. The security deposits were liquidated in May 2003 with the proceeds used to partially satisfy Meridiens
outstanding obligations. The judgment entered by the Dallas Court already incorporates a set-off in the amount of $1.0 million attributable to the security deposit for the Dallas property.



Meridien also has sued the Company and one of the Companys officers
alleging that certain actions taken in anticipation of re-branding the Dallas and New Orleans hotels under the Westin brand affiliation constituted unfair trade practices, false advertising, trademark infringement, trademark dilution and tortious
interference. The parties have reached an agreement to settle this matter through dismissal of all claims with prejudice, with no consideration to be paid from either party to the other, although settlement documents have not yet been fully
executed.



The Company does not believe that the amount of any
fees or damages it may be required to pay on any of the litigation related to Meridien will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations, taken as a whole. The Companys management has
discussed this contingency and the related accounting treatment with the audit committee of its Board of Trustees.

The Company initiated a lawsuit against Marriott Hotel Services, Inc. in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, County of New York, in connection with Marriotts implementation of certain expenditures without the Companys approval at the LaGuardia Airport Marriott. The Company alleged breach of contract and breach of fiduciary
duty by Marriott Hotel Services, Inc., among other claims. The trial court dismissed the Companys claims before receiving any evidence, and the Company has appealed from the courts decision. The appeal was argued in January 2006, and a
decision has not yet been issued by the appeals court.



The
Company is not presently subject to any other material litigation nor, to the Companys knowledge, is any other litigation threatened against the Company, other than routine actions for negligence or other claims and administrative proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are expected to be covered by liability insurance and all of which collectively are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations or business or
financial condition of the Company.

Holders of common
units of limited partnership interest receive distributions per unit in the same manner as distributions on a per common share basis to the common shareholders of beneficial interest.



Common shares issued upon redemption of common units of limited partnership interest were issued in reliance on an exemption
from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The Company relied on the exemption based on representations given by the limited partners that redeemed the units.



In connection with the Companys acquisition of the Westin Copley Place
in Boston, Massachusetts, and as part of the consideration for the hotel acquisition, the Operating Partnership issued 2,348,888 preferred units of limited partnership interest designated as the 7.25% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Units (liquidation preference $25 per unit). The issuance of the Series C Preferred Units was effected in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company relied on the
exemption based on representations given by the seller receiving the units. A holder of Series C Preferred Units receives a preferred distribution of 7.25% of the $25 per unit liquidation value, or $1.8125 per unit.



Equity compensation information including the Companys equity
compensation plan is incorporated into Part III of this report.

|(1) |  | The Company considers the non-GAAP measure of funds from operations (FFO) to be a key supplemental measure of the Companys performance and should be considered
along with, but not as an alternative to, net income as a measure of the Companys operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictable over
time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider supplemental measurements of performance to be helpful in evaluating a real estate companys
operations. The Company believes that excluding the effect of extraordinary items, real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and the portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are based on historical cost
accounting and which may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance, can facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and between REITs, even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common
shareholders. However, FFO may not be helpful when comparing the Company to non-REITs.
|--- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The White Paper on FFO approved by NAREIT in April 2002 defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses
from sales of properties and items classified by GAAP as extraordinary, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred finance costs) and after comparable adjustments for the Companys portion of
these items related to unconsolidated entities and joint ventures. The Company computes FFO consistent with standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with
the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company.



FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, cash flow
from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. FFO is not a measure of the Companys liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Companys cash needs, including its ability to make cash
distributions. FFO does not reflect cash expenditures for long-term assets and other items that have been and will be incurred. FFO may include funds that may not be available for managements discretionary use due to functional requirements to
conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties. To compensate for this, management considers the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or
evaluation of the Companys operating performance.

See Non-GAAP Financial Measures below in Item 7. Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a reconciliation of FFO to net income applicable to common shareholders.



|Item 7. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Overview



In 2005, the overall economy and the travel industry, including lodging, continued to be strong. We believe the lodging industry is in the midst of the
fundamentally strong portion of a typical multi-year up-cycle, assuming a normal economic growth period. With a strong balance sheet and high quality hotel portfolio, the Company was able to take advantage of this environment, significantly
increasing room revenue per available room (RevPAR), funds from operations (FFO), and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). The Companys revenues come primarily from hotel
operating revenues from its hotels. Hotel operating revenues include room revenue, food and beverage revenue and other ancillary revenue such as golf revenue at two golf resorts and telephone and parking revenue.



For 2005, the Company had net income of $20.8 million, or $0.67 per diluted
share. FFO was $70.5 million, or $2.25 per diluted share/unit and EBITDA was $109.9 million. RevPAR was $121.49. We consider RevPAR and EBITDA to be key measures of the performance of the individual hotels. RevPAR for the total portfolio increased
11.2% for 2005. The RevPAR increase is primarily attributable to an Average Daily Rate (ADR) increase of 7.8% to $170.43, while occupancy throughout the portfolio improved by 3.2% to 71.3%. The Companys EBITDA increased 43.9% due
to increased lodging demand, aggressive asset management and property acquisitions. The Companys hotel portfolio EBITDA increased $17.6 million due to higher ADR, occupancy and margin improvements.



The Company uses RevPAR, EBITDA, FFO and ADR as measures to evaluate the
hotels in its portfolio and potential acquisitions to determine each portfolio hotels contribution or acquisition hotels potential contribution toward reaching the Companys goal of maintaining a reliable stream of income and
moderate growth to shareholders. The Company invests in capital improvements throughout the portfolio to continue to increase the competitiveness of its hotels and improve their financial performance. The Company actively seeks to acquire new hotel
properties that meet its investment criteria. However, due to a high level of competitive capital resources, the Company continues to face significant competition for acquisitions that meet its investment criteria.



Please refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for a detailed
discussion of the Companys use of FFO and EBITDA and a reconciliation of FFO and EBITDA to net income, a GAAP measurement.



Critical Accounting Policies



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, LHL and the Companys other consolidated
subsidiaries and partnerships. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.



Use of Estimates



The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In preparing these financial statements,
management has utilized the information available including its past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the consolidated
financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. For example, included in the accompanying consolidated



23



---

financial statements is an estimated contingent lease termination expense of $1.0 million, $0.9 million and zero for the years ended December 31, 2005,
2004 and 2003, respectively, related to the Companys litigation with Meridien Hotels, Inc. (see Item 3. Legal Proceedings). Additionally, included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements is an estimated liability of $1.7
million related to the Companys litigation with Meridien Hotels, Inc. (see Item 3. Legal Proceedings), an estimated allowance for doubtful accounts of $1.0 million and an estimated deferred tax asset of $18.2 million as of
December 31, 2005. Management believes that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized and has determined that no valuation allowance is required.



It is possible that the ultimate outcome as anticipated by management in formulating its estimates inherent in these
financial statements might not materialize. However, application of the critical accounting policies below involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from those
estimates. In addition, other companies may determine these estimates differently, which may impact comparability of the Companys results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.



Revenue Recognition



For properties leased to third-party lessees, the Company recognizes lease
revenue on an accrual basis pursuant to the terms of the respective participating leases. Base rent and participating rent are recognized based on quarterly thresholds, pursuant to the lease agreements. As of December 31, 2005, the Company
leased two of its properties, Le Montrose Suite Hotel and San Diego Paradise Point Resort, to third parties. For properties leased by LHL, the Company recognizes hotel operating revenue on an accrual basis consistent with the hotel operations. As of
December 31, 2005, 23 of the 26 hotels in which the Company owned an interest were leased to LHL.



For the Lansdowne Resort, the Company defers golf membership fees and recognizes revenue over the average expected life of an active membership (currently
six years) on a straight-line basis. Golf membership, health club and executive club annual dues are recognized as earned throughout the membership year.



Investment in Hotel Properties



Upon acquisition, the Company allocates the purchase price of asset classes based on the fair value of the acquired real estate, furniture, fixtures and
equipment, assumed debt, and intangible assets. The Companys investments in hotel properties are carried at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30 to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for
building improvements, 20 years for golf course land improvements, 20 years for pool assets, and three to five years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Renovations and/or replacements that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized
and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.



The Company
is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives and classification of its properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation expense to reflect each year with respect to those properties. These assessments have a
direct impact on the Companys net income. Should the Company change the expected useful life or classification of particular assets, it would result in a change in depreciation expense and annual net income.



The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of each hotel to
determine if circumstances exist indicating impairment to the carrying value of the investment in the hotel or that depreciation periods should be modified. If facts or circumstances support the possibility of impairment, the Company will prepare an
estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, without interest charges, of the specific hotel and determine if the investment in such hotel is recoverable based on the undiscounted future cash flows. If impairment is indicated, an adjustment will
be made to the carrying value of the hotel to reflect the hotel at fair value. These assessments have a direct impact on the Companys net income. The Company does not believe that there are any facts or circumstances indicating impairment in
its hotels.



24



---

In accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, a hotel is considered held for sale when a contract for sale is entered into or when management has committed to a plan to sell an asset, the asset is actively marketed and
sale is expected to occur within one year.



Share-Based
Compensation



The Company has applied Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for the 1998 share option and incentive plan. Accordingly, no compensation costs have been recognized for share options granted to the Companys employees. The
Company has not issued any options since 2002. Under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, no compensation expense is recognized upon the granting of stock options when the exercise price of such options equals the market price of the
underlying shares on the date of grant. The Company recognizes compensation cost pursuant to FAS 123 for restricted shares issued based upon the fair market value of the common shares at the grant date. Compensation cost is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The remaining increase of $24.9 million, or 9.5% is attributable to an 11.2% increase in RevPAR for properties leased to
LHL. The increase in RevPAR was primarily attributable to an increase in ADR of 7.8%.



The economy, the travel industry and the lodging business were all improved during 2005. On a year-over-year basis, overall industry demand for hotel rooms significantly outpaced supply growth throughout the year,
with demand up an average 3.3% in 2005 and supply up only 0.4% for the same period. These positive lodging industry fundamentals led to very healthy increases in average daily rates. Pricing power was even stronger in 2005 than in 2004, with more
major markets around the United States participating due to higher occupancy levels. It was the third year in the lodging industrys recovery and was the second year in a row of meaningful increases in RevPAR following the down years of 2001
and 2002. Business transient travel, group and leisure all continued to be very strong in 2005. International visitation was up for the second year in a row, benefiting

international gateway and resort markets in the U.S., including New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle and Hawaii. A
number of major urban markets reached record occupancy and ADR levels in 2005, including Washington, D.C., San Diego and New York City. Group business also continued to recover, with overall group volumes and food and beverage contributions up in
2005.



Participating lease revenue



Participating lease revenue from hotels leased to third-party lessees (two
hotels as of December 31, 2005) increased $2.9 million from $18.6 million in 2004 to $21.5 million in 2005. Participating lease revenue includes (i) base rent and (ii) participating rent based on fixed percentages of hotel revenues
pursuant to the respective participating lease. Approximately $2.7 million of this increase is from San Diego Paradise Point Resort due to a 13.6% increase in RevPAR in 2005. The remaining increase of $0.2 million is due to a 7.8% increase in RevPAR
in 2005 at LeMontrose Suite Hotel.



Hotel operating expenses



Hotel operating expenses increased approximately $70.0
million from $186.7 million in 2004 to $256.7 million in 2005. This increase includes amounts that are not comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $18.9 million increase from Westin Copley Place, which was purchased in August 2005;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $11.9 million increase from Chaminade Resort and Conference Center, which was purchased in November 2004;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.1 million increase from Washington Grande Hotel, which was purchased in December 2005.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining increase of $14.9 million, or 8.0%, is a result of higher occupancies at the hotels as well as above-inflation
increases in payroll and related employee costs and benefits, sales and marketing, insurance, energy costs and operator incentive fees.



Depreciation and other amortization



Depreciation and other amortization expense increased by approximately $10.0 million from $38.9 million in 2004 to $48.9 million in 2005. This increase
includes amounts that are not comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $4.4 million increase from Westin Copley Place, which was purchased in August 2005;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $2.4 million increase from Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, which was purchased in January 2005;

| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.1 million increase from Washington Grande Hotel, which was purchased in December 2005.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining change is a decrease of $0.3 million and is due to certain assets becoming fully depreciated during 2005.



Real estate taxes, personal property taxes, insurance and
ground rent



Real estate taxes, personal property taxes,
insurance and ground rent expense increased approximately $4.4 million from $15.4 million in 2004 to $19.8 million in 2005. This increase includes amounts that are not comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $1.5 million increase from Westin Copley Place, which was purchased in August 2005;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $1.2 million increase from Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, which was purchased in January 2005;

| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.3 million increase from Hilton Alexandria Old Town, which was purchased in May 2004; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.2 million increase from Onyx Hotel, which was purchased in May 2005.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining increase of $0.4 million, or 2.6%, is a result of an increase in ground rent for San Diego Paradise Point Resort and Harborside Hyatt
Conference Center & Hotel. Real estate taxes generally increased, however these were offset by reductions in assessments due to appeals.



General and administrative expenses



General and administrative expense increased approximately $1.9 million from $8.4 million in 2004 to $10.3 million in 2005 primarily as a result of
increases in payroll related expenses, executive compensation, director fees, legal fees, office rent and technology expenses.



Interest expense



Interest expense increased by approximately $9.1 million from $15.3 million in 2004 to $24.4 million in 2005 due to an increase in the Companys
weighted average debt outstanding, and an increase in the weighted average interest rate, partly offset by an increase in capitalized interest. The Companys weighted average debt outstanding related to continuing operations increased from
$281.9 million in 2004 to $435.0 million in 2005, which includes increases from:

| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional borrowings under the Companys credit facility to finance other capital improvements during 2005.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The above borrowings are offset by paydowns on the line of credit from proceeds from:



| |  |  | the sale of the Omaha Marriott on September 15, 2004;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a November 2004 common share offering;

| |  |  | a December 2005 common share offering; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operating cash flows.
| | - |  | ---------------------



The Companys weighted average interest rate related to continuing operations increased from 4.6% in 2004 to 4.9% in 2005. Capitalized interest
increased by approximately $0.4 million from $0.8 million in 2004 to $1.2 million in 2005, primarily due to 2005 capital expenditures related to the Lansdowne Resort development project.



Income taxes



Income tax benefit decreased approximately $1.2 million from $3.4 million in 2004 to $2.2 million in 2005. For 2005, the REIT incurred state and local
income tax expense of approximately $1.5 million. LHLs net loss before income tax benefit decreased by approximately $0.8 million from $9.7 million in 2004 to $8.9 million in 2005. Accordingly, in 2005 LHL recorded a federal income tax benefit
of approximately $2.7 million (using an estimated tax rate of 30.8%) and a state and local tax benefit of approximately $0.9 million (using an estimated tax rate of 10.7%). The portion of LHLs income tax benefit relating to the Omaha property,
which the Company sold in 2004, was reclassified in 2004 to discontinued operations. The following table summarizes the change in income tax (benefit) expense (dollars in thousands):

As of
December 31, 2005, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $18.2 million primarily due to past and current years tax net operating losses. These loss carryforwards will expire in 2021 through 2025 if not utilized by then. Management
believes that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized and has determined that no valuation allowance is required.



Minority interest



Minority interest of common units in the Operating Partnership represents the common units limited partners proportionate share of the equity in the
Operating Partnership. Income is allocated to the common units minority interest based on the weighted average percentage ownership throughout the year. At December 31,

The minority interest
of preferred units in the Operating Partnership represents the allocation of income of the Operating Partnership to the preferred units held by a third party. The increase from zero in 2004 to $1.4 million in 2005 is a result of the preferred units
which were issued on August 31, 2005 related to the Westin Copley acquisition.



Discontinued operations



Net income from discontinued operations was the result of the sale of the Omaha property in September 2004. Net income from discontinued operations decreased by approximately $4.4 million from $4.4 million in 2004 to approximately zero in
2005. The following table summarizes net income from discontinued operations (dollars in thousands):

Distributions to preferred
shareholders increased $2.1 million from $12.5 million in 2004 to $14.6 million in 2005 due to distribution on the Series D Preferred Shares, which were not outstanding in 2004 and were issued in August 2005.



Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2004 to the Year Ended December 31,
2003



Hotel operating revenues



Hotel operating revenues from the hotels leased to LHL (16 hotels as of
December 31, 2004), including room revenue, food and beverage revenue and other operating department revenues (which includes golf, telephone, parking and other ancillary revenues) increased approximately $95.6 million, from $166.2 million in

| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $1.0 million increase from Chaminade Resort and Conference Center, which was purchased in November 2004.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining increase of $17.8 million, or 10.7%, is attributable to increases in RevPAR and associated food and beverage
and other operating department revenues for other properties leased to LHL. While ADR increased, the majority of the increase in RevPAR is attributable to higher occupancies from stronger business travel.



Overall, travel levels improved in 2004, when the industry benefited from
continued relatively strong leisure demand and significant increases in demand from business travels. On a year-over-year basis, overall industry demand for hotel rooms significantly outpaced supply growth throughout the year, with occupancies up an
average of 4.9% during 2004. With demand improving during 2004, the Company began to find it easier to achieve increased ADRs. Nevertheless, both the leisure traveler and the business traveler, group and transient, continued to be price sensitive in
2004 and utilized an aggressive negotiation posture and internet sites to shop for the lowest rates. Additionally, the business was more competitive because transient guests tended to book their rooms closer to their time of stay than in the past,
and transient rooms had prices lower than they otherwise would have. Despite these rate challenges, many of the Companys hotels experienced ADR increases during 2004, especially the urban and convention hotels.



Participating lease revenue



Participating lease revenue from hotels leased to third-party lessees (two
hotels as of December 31, 2004) decreased $2.7 million from $21.3 million in 2003 to $18.6 million in 2004. Participating lease revenue includes (i) base rent and (ii) participating rent based on fixed percentages of gross hotel
revenues pursuant to the respective participating lease. This decrease includes amounts that are not comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $1.6 million decrease from the Westin City Center Dallas, which lease was transferred to LHL in July 2003.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining decrease of $1.1 million, or 5.2%, is primarily as result of a
decrease in RevPAR at San Diego Paradise Point Resort, which is leased to a third-party lessee. The lower RevPAR resulted from decreased occupancy and ADR from weak group and leisure demand and the difficult comparison to 2003s first quarter
that included the significant benefits to the San Diego Paradise Point Resort as a result of the Super Bowl held in San Diego.



Hotel operating expenses



Hotel operating expenses increased approximately $63.6 million from $123.1 million in 2003 to $186.7 million in 2004. This increase includes amounts that
are not comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $25.2 million increase from the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, which was purchased in February 2004;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $11.2 million increase from the Lansdowne Resort, which was purchased in June 2003;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $6.8 million increase from the Westin City Center Dallas, which lease was transferred to LHL in July 2003;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $4.8 million increase from the Hilton Alexandria Old Town, which was purchased in May 2004;

| |  |  | $3.3 million increase from the Hotel George, which was purchased in September 2003; and

| |  |  | $1.5 million increase from Chaminade Resort and Conference Center, which was purchased in November 2004.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining increase of $10.8 million, or 8.8%, is a result of higher occupancies at the hotels as well as above inflation
increases in payroll and related employee costs and benefits, sales and marketing, insurance and energy costs.



Depreciation and other amortization



Depreciation and other amortization expense increased by approximately $7.2 million from $31.7 million in 2003 to $38.9 million in 2004. This increase
includes amounts that are not comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $4.9 million increase from the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, which was purchased in February 2004;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $1.7 million increase from the Lansdowne Resort, which was purchased in June 2003:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $1.2 million increase from the Hilton Alexandria Old Town, which was purchased in May 2004;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.6 million increase from the Hotel George, which was purchased in September 2003; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.1 million increase from the Chaminade Resort and Conference Center, which was purchased in November 2004.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining decrease of $1.3 million is due to certain furniture, fixture
and equipment assets that were fully depreciated during 2003 and 2004.



Real estate taxes, personal property taxes, insurance and ground rent



Real estate taxes, personal property taxes, insurance and ground rent expenses increased approximately $2.5 million from $12.9 million in 2003 to $15.4 million in 2004. This increase includes amounts that are not
comparable year-over-year as follows:



| |  |  | $1.3 million increase from the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, which was purchased in February 2004;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.5 million increase from the Lansdowne Resort, which was purchased in June 2003;

| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $0.2 million increase from the Hilton Alexandria Old Town, which was purchased in May 2004.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The remaining real estate taxes, personal property taxes, insurance and ground rent increased by a net approximate $0.3
million in 2004 for the remaining hotels.



General and
administrative expenses



General and administrative
expenses increased approximately $1.1 million from $7.3 million in 2003 to $8.4 million in 2004, primarily as a result of increases in accounting fees, compliance costs and payroll-related expenses to executives and employees.



Interest expense



Interest expense increased by approximately $0.2 million from $15.1 million
in 2003 to $15.3 million in 2004 due to an increase in the Companys weighted average debt outstanding, offset by a decrease in the

weighted average interest rate, and an increase in capitalized interest. The Companys weighted average debt outstanding related to continuing
operations increased from $234.4 million in 2003 to $281.9 million in 2004, which includes increases from:



| |  |  | additional borrowings to purchase San Diego Paradise Point Resort in December 2003;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional borrowings to purchase Indianapolis Marriott Downtown in February 2004;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional borrowings to purchase Hilton Alexandria Old Town in August 2004;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional borrowings to purchase Chaminade Resort and Conference Center in November 2004;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional borrowings to purchase Hotel George in September 2003; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional borrowings under the Companys credit facility to finance other capital improvements during 2004.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The above borrowings are offset by paydowns on the line of credit from
proceeds from:



| |  |  | a June 2003 common share offering;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | a September 2003 Series B Preferred Share offering;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | the sale of the Omaha Marriott on September 15, 2004;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a November 2004 common share offering; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operating cash flows.
| | - |  | ---------------------



The Companys weighted average interest rate related to continuing operations decreased from 5.3% in 2003 to 4.6% in 2004. Capitalized interest
increased by approximately $0.5 million from $0.3 million in 2003 to $0.8 million in 2004, primarily due to 2004 capital expenditures related to the Lansdowne Resort development project.



Income taxes



Income tax benefit decreased approximately $2.2 million from $5.6 million in 2003 to $3.4 million in 2004. For 2004, the REIT incurred state and local
income tax expense of approximately $0.4 million. LHLs net loss before income tax benefit decreased by approximately $5.2 million from $14.9 million in 2003 to $9.7 million in 2004. Accordingly, for 2004, LHL recorded a federal income tax
benefit of approximately $2.9 million (using an estimated tax rate of 30.8%) and a state and local tax benefit of approximately $0.9 million (using an estimated tax rate of 10.7%). The portion of LHLs income tax benefit relating to the Omaha
property, the New Orleans property and the Key West property, which the Company sold in 2003, was reclassified to discontinued operations. The following table summarizes the income tax (benefit) expense (dollars in thousands):

As of December 31, 2004, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $14.5 million primarily due to past
and current years tax net operating losses. These loss carryforwards will expire in 2021 through 2024 if not utilized by then. Management believes it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized and has determined that
no valuation allowance is required.



Minority interest



Minority interest in the Operating Partnership represents
the limited partners proportionate share of the equity in the Operating Partnership. Income is allocated to minority interest based on the weighted average percentage ownership throughout the year. At December 31, 2004, the aggregate
weighted average partnership interest held by the limited partners in the Operating Partnership was approximately 1.52%. The following table summarizes the change in minority interest (dollars in thousands):

Discontinued
operations



Net income from discontinued operations is a
result of the sale of the Omaha property, the Holiday Inn Key West property and the New Orleans property in September 2004, July 2003 and April 2003, respectively. Net income from discontinued operations decreased by approximately $32.6 million
from $37.0 million in 2003 to $4.4 million in 2004. The following table summarizes net income from discontinued operations from 2004 and 2003 (dollars in thousands):

Series B Preferred Shares distributions in the first, second and third quarters of 2003. Distributions on the Series A Preferred Shares were paid for the full year in 2004 and 2003.



Non-GAAP Financial Measures



Funds From Operations and EBITDA



The Company considers the non-GAAP measures of FFO and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to be key
supplemental measures of the Companys performance and should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income as a measure of the Companys operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets
implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO and EBITDA to be
helpful in evaluating a real estate companys operations.



The White Paper on FFO approved by NAREIT in April 2002 defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of properties and items classified by GAAP as extraordinary, plus real
estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred finance costs) and after comparable adjustments for the Companys portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities and joint ventures. The Company
computes FFO consistent with standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition
differently than the Company.



With respect to FFO, the Company
believes that excluding the effect of extraordinary items, real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and the portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are based on historical cost accounting and which may be of
limited significance in evaluating current performance, can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs, even though FFO does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders. However, FFO
may not be helpful when comparing the Company to non-REITs.



With respect to EBITDA, the Company believes that excluding the effect of non-operating expenses and non-cash charges, and the portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities, all of which are also based on historical cost
accounting and may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance, can help eliminate the accounting effects of depreciation and amortization, and financing decisions and facilitate comparisons of core operating profitability between
periods and between REITs, even though EBITDA also does not represent an amount that accrues directly to common shareholders.



Neither FFO nor EBITDA represents cash generated from operating activities determined by GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income,
cash flow from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Neither FFO nor EBITDA is a measure of the Companys liquidity, nor is FFO or EBITDA indicative of funds available to fund the Companys cash needs,
including its ability to make cash distributions. Neither measurement reflects cash expenditures for long-term assets and other items that have been and will be incurred. FFO and EBITDA may include funds that may not be available for
managements discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties. To compensate for this, management considers the impact of these excluded
items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or the evaluation of the Companys operating performance.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



Investment in Joint Venture



The Company is a party to a joint venture (the Joint Venture)
arrangement with The Carlyle Group, an institutional investor that owns the 1,192-room Chicago Marriott Downtown in Chicago, Illinois. The Company owns a non-controlling 9.9% equity interest in the Joint Venture. The Company receives an annual
preferred return in addition to its pro rata share of annual cash flow. The Company also has the opportunity to earn an incentive participation in net sale or refinancing proceeds based upon the achievement of certain overall investment returns, in
addition to its pro rata share of net sale or refinancing proceeds. The Chicago Marriott Downtown is leased to Chicago 540 Lessee, Inc., in which the Company also owns a non-controlling 9.9% equity interest. The Carlyle Group owns a 90.1%
controlling interest in both the Joint Venture that owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown and Chicago 540 Lessee, Inc. Marriott International, Inc. operates the Chicago Marriott Downtown pursuant to a long-term incentive-based operating agreement. As
the controlling partner, The Carlyle Group may elect to dispose of the Chicago Marriott Downtown without the Companys consent. The Company accounts for its non-controlling 9.9% equity interest in each of the Joint Venture that owns the Chicago
Marriott Downtown and Chicago 540 Lessee, Inc. under the equity method of accounting.



The Joint Venture was subject to two mortgage loans for an aggregate principal amount of $120.0 million. The mortgage loans had two-year terms, and were due to expire in July 2004. On April 6, 2004, the Joint
Venture refinanced its existing two mortgage loans with a new mortgage loan for an aggregate principal amount of $140.0 million. Upon refinancing, the Company received approximately $1.8 million in cash representing its prorated share of the
proceeds. The new mortgage loan has a two-year term, expires in April 2006, and can be extended at the option of the Joint Venture for three additional one-year terms. The mortgage bears interest at the London InterBank Offered Rate plus 2.25%. The
Joint Venture has purchased a cap on the London InterBank Offered Rate capping the London InterBank Offered Rate at 7.25%, effectively limiting the rate on the mortgage to 9.5%. As of December 31, 2005, the interest rate on this mortgage was
6.6%. Monthly interest-only payments are due in arrears throughout the term. The Chicago Marriott Downtown secures the mortgage. The Companys pro rata share of the mortgage loan is approximately $13.9 million and is included in the
Companys liquidity and capital resources discussion and in calculating debt coverage ratios under the Companys credit facility. No guarantee exists on behalf of the Company for this mortgage.



On November 2, 2004, the Joint Venture obtained a three and a half year
commitment for a $5.75 million credit facility to be used for partial funding of furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) costs related to the property. The FF&E credit facility matures on the earlier of i) April 30, 2008,
or ii) three years from the date on which the final borrowing is made. The borrower has an option to borrow portions of the principal debt bearing interest with reference to the base rate or to LIBOR, and portions may be converted from one interest
basis to another. Base rate will be the greater of i) the rate established by the lender as a base rate and which is designated by the lender as its U.S. prime rate, or ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. LIBOR rate will be set two business days
before the start of an interest period. The Joint Venture purchased a cap on London InterBank Offered Rate capping the London InterBank Offered Rate at 7.5%. Consistent with the Companys ownership interest, it is guaranteeing 9.9% of the
credit facility. The Companys maximum exposure under the FF&E

facility is $0.6 million, and the guarantee will expire at the maturity of the credit facility. In the event of default, any outstanding principal and
accrued interest will be due and payable. As of December 31, 2005, the Companys pro rata share of the borrowings outstanding under the FF&E Facility was $0.5 million.



Tax Indemnification Agreement



Pursuant to the acquisition of the Westin Copley Place, the Company entered into a Tax Reporting and Protection Agreement
(the Tax Agreement) with SCG Copley Square LLC (SCG). Under the Tax Agreement, the Company is required, among other things, to indemnify SCG (and its affiliates) for certain income tax liabilities that such entities would
incur if the Westin Copley Place was transferred by the Company in a taxable transaction or if the Company fails to maintain a certain level of indebtedness with respect to the Westin Copley Place or its operations. The obligations of the Company
under the Tax Protection Agreement (i) do not apply in the case of a foreclosure of the Westin Copley Place, if certain specified requirements are met, (ii) are limited to $20.0 million (although a limitation of $10.0 million is applicable
to certain specified transactions), and (iii) terminates on the earlier of the 10thanniversary of the
Companys acquisition of the Westin Copley Place or January 1, 2016. The Company believes that the likelihood that the Company will be required to pay under this Tax Agreement is remote, and therefore, a liability has not been recorded.



Reserve Funds



The Company is obligated to maintain reserve funds for capital expenditures
at the hotels (including the periodic replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment) as determined pursuant to the management, franchise, and mortgage agreements. The Companys aggregate obligation under the reserve funds
was approximately $30.2 million at December 31, 2005. Three management agreements, one franchise agreement and one mortgage agreement require that the Company reserve restricted cash ranging from 3.0% to 5.5% of the individual hotels
annual revenues. As of December 31, 2005, $8.8 million was available in restricted cash reserves for future capital expenditures. Twenty of the management agreements require that the Company reserve funds of 4.0% of the individual hotels
annual revenues but do not require the funds to be set aside in restricted cash. As of December 31, 2005, the total amount obligated for potential future capital expenditures but not set aside in restricted cash reserves was $21.5 million. In
addition, one of the twenty hotels with a management agreement which does not require the cash to be set aside, also has a loan agreement which requires the Company to set aside an additional reserve of a minimal amount. Amounts will be recorded as
incurred. As of December 31, 2005, purchase orders and letters of commitment totaling approximately $16.5 million have been issued for renovations at the hotels. The Company has committed to these projects and anticipates making similar
arrangements with the existing hotels or any future hotels that it may acquire. Any unexpended amounts will remain the property of the Company upon termination of the participating leases.



The Company has no other off-balance sheet arrangements.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Companys principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements,
including distributions to shareholders, is its pro rata share of hotel operating cash flow distributed by LHL and the Operating Partnerships cash flow from the participating leases. The Companys senior unsecured credit facility contains
certain financial covenants relating to debt service coverage, net worth and total funded indebtedness and contains financial covenants that, assuming no continuing defaults, allow the Company to make shareholder distributions. There are currently
no other contractual or other arrangements limiting payment of distributions by the Operating Partnership. Similarly, LHL is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. Payments to the Operating Partnership are required pursuant to the
terms of the lease agreements between LHL and the Operating Partnership relating to the properties owned by the Operating Partnership and leased by LHL. Except for the security deposits required under the participating leases for the two hotels not
leased by LHL, the lessees obligations under the participating leases are unsecured and the lessees abilities to make rent payments to the Operating Partnership, and the Companys liquidity, including its ability to make
distributions to shareholders, are dependent on the lessees abilities to generate sufficient cash flow from the operations of the hotels.

In addition, cash flow from hotel operations is subject to all operating risks common to the hotel
industry. These risks include:



| |  |  | competition for guests and meetings from other hotels, including competition from internet wholesalers and distributors;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in operating costs including wages, benefits, insurance, property taxes and energy due to inflation and other factors, which may not be offset in the future by increases
in room rates;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | labor strikes, disruptions or lockouts that may impact operating performance;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | dependence on demand from business and leisure travelers, which may fluctuate and be seasonal;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in energy costs, airline fares, and other expenses related to travel, which may deter traveling;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | terrorism, terrorism alerts and warnings and military actions such as the war in Iraq, and SARS, pandemics or other medical events which may cause decreases in business and leisure
travel; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adverse affects of weak general and local economic conditions.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



These factors could adversely affect the ability of the hotel operators to generate revenues and therefore adversely affect the lessees of the
Companys hotels and their ability to make rental payments to the Company pursuant to the participating leases and therefore impact the Companys liquidity.

Credit Facility



The Company has a senior unsecured credit facility from a syndicate of banks that provides for a maximum borrowing of up to
$300.0 million. On June 9, 2005, the Company amended the credit facility to extend the credit facilitys maturity date to June 9, 2008 with a one-year extension option and to reduce the applicable margin pricing by a range of 0.25% to
0.5%. The senior unsecured credit facility contains certain financial covenants relating to debt service coverage, net worth and total funded indebtedness and contains financial covenants that, assuming no continuing defaults, allow the Company to
make shareholder distributions which, when combined with the distributions to shareholders in the three immediately preceding fiscal quarters, do not exceed the greater of (i) ninety percent of the funds from operations from the preceding
four-quarter rolling period or (ii) the greater of (a) the amount of distributions required for the Company to maintain its status as a REIT or (b) the amount required to ensure the Company will avoid imposition of an excise tax for
failure to make certain minimum distributions on a calendar year basis. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at floating rates equal to, at the Companys option, either (i) London InterBank Offered Rate plus an applicable margin, or
(ii) an Adjusted Base Rate plus an applicable margin. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants and was not otherwise in default under the credit facility. For the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility was approximately 5.0% and 3.7%, respectively. The Company did not have any Adjusted Base Rate borrowings outstanding at
December 31, 2005. Additionally, the Company is required to pay a variable unused commitment fee determined from a ratings or leverage based pricing matrix, currently set at 0.2% of the unused portion of the senior unsecured credit facility.
The Company incurred an unused commitment fee of approximately $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had $30.0 million and zero, respectively,
of outstanding borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility.



LHL has a $25.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. On June 9, 2005, LHL amended the credit facility to extend the credit facility maturity date to June 9,
2008 with a one-year extension option and to reduce the applicable margin pricing by a range of 0.25% to 0.5%. Borrowings under the LHL credit facility bear interest at floating rates equal to, at LHLs option, either (i) London InterBank
Offered Rate plus an applicable margin, or (ii) an Adjusted Base Rate plus an applicable margin. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants and was not otherwise in default under the credit
facility. The weighted average interest rate under the LHL credit facility for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was 4.9% and 3.6%, respectively. LHL is required to pay a variable unused commitment fee determined from a ratings or
leverage based pricing matrix, currently set at 0.2% of the unused portion of the LHL credit facility. LHL incurred an immaterial commitment fee for each of the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the
Company had $0.7 million and zero, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under LHL credit facility.

unsecured credit facility and to fund, in part, the Companys acquisitions of the University Tower Hotel, the Hilton San Diego Resort, and the Washington Grande Hotel (formerly the Holiday Inn Downtown).



Sources and Uses of Cash



At December 31, 2005, the Company had approximately $10.2 million of
cash and cash equivalents and approximately $20.8 million of restricted cash reserves.



Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $86.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 primarily due to the distribution of available hotel operating cash by LHL and participating lease
revenues, which were offset by payments for real estate taxes, personal property taxes, insurance and ground rent.



Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $413.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 primarily due to the purchases of the
Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, The Grafton on Sunset, Onyx Hotel, Westin Copley Place, University Tower Hotel, Hilton San Diego Resort and Washington Grande Hotel, outflows for improvements and additions at the hotels, the funding of restricted
cash reserves, offset by proceeds from restricted cash reserves.



Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $305.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, comprised of borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility, proceeds from mortgage loans, proceeds from the
exercise of share options and proceeds from the October 12, 2005 and December 9, 2005 common share offerings and the August 19, 2005 preferred share offering, offset by repayments of borrowings under the senior unsecured credit
facility, payment of distributions to the common shareholders and unitholders and payments of distributions to preferred shareholders and mortgage loan repayments.



The Company has considered its short-term (one year or less) liquidity needs and the adequacy of its estimated cash flow
from operations and other expected liquidity sources to meet these needs. The Company believes that its principal short-term liquidity needs are to fund normal recurring expenses, debt service



42



---

requirements, distributions on the preferred shares and the minimum distribution required to maintain the Companys REIT qualification under the Code.
The Company anticipates that these needs will be met with cash flows provided by operating activities and using availability under the senior unsecured credit facility. The Company also considers capital improvements and property acquisitions as
short-term needs that will be funded either with cash flows provided by operating activities, utilizing availability under the senior unsecured credit facility, the issuance of other indebtedness, or the issuance of additional equity securities.



The Company expects to meet long-term (greater than one year)
liquidity requirements such as property acquisitions, scheduled debt maturities, major renovations, expansions and other nonrecurring capital improvements utilizing availability under the senior unsecured credit facility, estimated cash flows from
operations, the issuance of long-term unsecured and secured indebtedness and the issuance of additional equity securities. The Company expects to acquire or develop additional hotel properties only as suitable opportunities arise, and the Company
will not undertake acquisition or development of properties unless stringent acquisition/development criteria have been achieved.



Reserve Funds



The Company is obligated to maintain reserve funds for capital expenditures at the hotels (including the periodic replacement or refurbishment of
furniture, fixtures and equipment) as determined pursuant to the management, franchise, and mortgage agreements. The Companys aggregate obligation under the reserve funds was approximately $30.2 million at December 31, 2005. Three
management agreements, one franchise agreement and one mortgage agreement require that the Company reserve restricted cash ranging from 3.0% to 5.5% of the individual hotels annual revenues. As of December 31, 2005, $8.8 million was
available in restricted cash reserves for future capital expenditures. Twenty of the management agreements require that the Company reserve funds of 4.0% of the individual hotels annual revenues but do not require the funds to be set aside in
restricted cash. As of December 31, 2005, the total amount obligated for potential future capital expenditures but not set aside in restricted cash reserves was $21.5 million. In addition, one of the twenty hotels with a management agreement
which does not require the cash to be set aside, also has a loan agreement which requires the Company to set aside an additional reserve of a minimal amount. Amounts will be recorded as incurred. As of December 31, 2005, purchase orders and
letters of commitment totaling approximately $16.5 million have been issued for renovations at the hotels. The Company has committed to these projects and anticipates making similar arrangements with the existing hotels or any future hotels that it
may acquire. Any unexpended amounts will remain the property of the Company upon termination of the participating leases.



The Joint Venture lease requires that the Joint Venture reserve restricted cash of 5.0% of the Chicago Marriott Downtowns annual revenues; however,
the Joint Venture is not consolidated in the Companys financial statements and, therefore, the amount of restricted cash reserves relating to the Joint Venture is not recorded on the Companys books and records.



Subsequent Events



On January 1, 2006, the Company repurchased 27,675 common shares of beneficial interest related to executives and
employees surrendering shares to pay taxes at the time restricted shares vested. The Company re-issued these 27,675 treasury shares related to (i) compensation to the Board of Trustees and (ii) issuance of restricted common shares of
beneficial interest to the Companys executive officers.



On January 6, 2006, the joint venture that owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown in which the Company holds a non-controlling 9.9% equity interest, signed a term sheet to refinance its mortgage and furniture, fixtures and equipment line of
credit by obtaining a new $220.0 million mortgage with a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.85%. Upon closing, the Companys pro rata share of the mortgage loan will be approximately $21.8 million.



On January 13, 2006, the Company declared monthly cash distributions to
shareholders of the Company and partners of the Operating Partnership, in the amount of $0.10 per common share of beneficial interest/unit for each of the months of January, February and March 2006.

to occur during the first quarter of 2006. The property will continue to be managed by Starwood Hotels & Resorts.



On February 7, 2006, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 3,250,000 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per
share. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering costs, the Company raised net proceeds of approximately $119.8 million. The net proceeds were used to repay existing indebtedness under the Companys senior
unsecured credit facility and for general corporate purposes including acquisitions. The Company granted the underwriters an option to purchase up to 487,500 additional common shares to cover over-allotments. This option may be exercised any time
before March 3, 2006. As of February 22, 2006 this option has not been exercised.



On February 8, 2006, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 3,050,000 shares of 8.0% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (the Series E Preferred Shares) par value $0.01 per share
(liquidation preference $25.00 per share). After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other

Companys senior unsecured credit facility and for general corporate purposes including acquisitions. On February 16, 2006, the Company issued an additional 450,000 Series E Preferred Shares pursuant to an over-allotment option for
approximately $11.0 million after deducting underwriters discounts and commissions.



On February 15, 2006, the Company paid its January 2006 monthly distribution of $0.10 per share/unit on its common shares of beneficial interest and units of limited partnership interest to shareholders and unit

On
February 15, 2006, the tax-exempt special project revenue bond and the taxable special project revenue bond, both issued by the Massachusetts Port Authority, were remarketed with the supporting letters of credit being provided by Royal Bank of
Scotland, replacing GE Commercial Credit. The cost of the supporting letters of credit was reduced from 2% to 1.35%. The bonds are secured by the letters of credit and the letters of credit are secured by the Harborside Hyatt Conference
Center & Hotel.



On February 21, 2006, the
Washington Grande Hotel (formerly the Holiday Inn Downtown) was closed for renovations. The Company plans to invest over $21 million in a renovation and repositioning similar to those performed on the Companys DC Urban Collection purchased in
March 2001. After completion of the renovation and repositioning in 2007, the hotel will be operated as a luxury high-style, independent hotel.



Inflation



The Companys revenues come primarily from its pro rata share of the Operating Partnerships cash flow from the participating leases and the LHL
hotel operating revenues, thus the Companys revenues will vary based on changes in the underlying hotels revenues. Therefore, the Company relies entirely on the performance of the hotels and the lessees abilities to increase
revenues to keep pace with inflation. The hotel operators can change room rates quickly, but competitive pressures may limit the lessees and hotel operators abilities to raise rates faster than inflation or even at the same rate.



The Companys expenses (primarily real estate taxes,
property and casualty insurance, administrative expenses and LHL hotel operating expenses) are subject to inflation. These expenses are expected to grow with the general rate of inflation, except for energy costs, property and casualty insurance,
liability insurance, property tax rates, employee benefits, and some wages, which are expected to increase at rates higher than inflation, and except for instances in which the properties are subject to periodic real estate tax reassessments.



Derivative/Financial Instruments



In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effects of
interest rate changes. As of December 31, 2005, approximately 15.2% (including the Companys $14.3 million pro rata portion of indebtedness relating to the Companys joint venture investment in the Chicago Marriott Downtown hotel) of
the Companys borrowings were subject to variable rates. The Company limits the risks associated with interest rate changes by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. For interest rate
exposures, derivatives are used primarily to align rate movements between interest rates associated with the Companys hotel operating revenue, participating lease revenue and other financial assets with interest rates on related debt, and
manage the cost of borrowing obligations. The Company may utilize derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risk. The Company requires that hedging derivative instruments be effective in reducing the interest rate risk
exposure that they are designated to hedge. This effectiveness is essential in order to qualify for hedge accounting. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract. When
the terms of an underlying transaction are modified, or when the underlying hedged item ceases to exist, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are marked-to-market with changes in value included in net income each period until the
instrument matures.



45



---

The Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions based upon
their credit ratings and other factors. When viewed in conjunction with the underlying and offsetting exposure that the derivatives are designed to hedge, the Company has not sustained a material loss from those instruments nor does it anticipate
any material adverse effect on its net income or financial position in the future from the use of derivatives.



To manage interest rate risk, the Company may employ options, forwards, interest rate swaps, caps and floors or a combination thereof depending on the
underlying exposure. The Company utilizes a variety of borrowings including lines of credit and medium and long-term financings. To reduce overall interest cost, the Company uses interest rate instruments, typically interest rate swaps, to convert a
portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. Interest rate differentials that arise under these swap contracts are recognized in interest expense over the life of the contracts. The resulting cost of funds is usually lower than that which
would have been available if debt with matching characteristics was issued directly.



To determine the fair values of derivative instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing as of each valuation date. For the majority of
financial instruments including most derivatives and long-term debt, standard market conventions and techniques such as discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models, replacement cost, and termination cost are used to determine fair value.
All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.

Interest Rate Sensitivity



The table below provides information about financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including mortgage obligations, bonds,
lines of credit and an interest rate swap. For debt obligations, the table presents scheduled maturities and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. The debt securing the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown has been included
in fixed rate debt because the Company has an interest rate swap in place which is not used for trading purposes and effectively fixes the interest rate on the debt.

The table above
presents the principal amount of debt maturing each year, including annual amortization of principal, through December 31, 2010 and thereafter and weighted average interest rates for the debt maturing in each specified period. This table
reflects indebtedness outstanding as of December 31, 2005 and does not reflect indebtedness incurred after that date. The Companys ultimate exposure to interest rate fluctuations depends on the amount of indebtedness that bears interest
at variable rates, the time at which the interest rate is adjusted, the amount of adjustment, the ability to prepay or refinance variable rate indebtedness and hedging strategies used to reduce the impact of any increases in rates.



The Company employs interest rate swaps to hedge against interest rate
fluctuations. On February 27, 2004, the Company entered into a three-year fixed interest rate swap that fixes the LIBOR at 2.56% for $57.0 million of the Companys mortgage loan secured by the Indianapolis hotel and therefore fixes the
mortgage rate at 3.56%.



46



---

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. The Company seeks to limit the
impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower the overall borrowing costs by closely monitoring the Companys variable rate debt and converting such debt to fixed rates when we deem such conversion advantageous. As of
December 31, 2005, approximately $87.5 million of the Companys aggregate indebtedness (15.2% of total indebtedness), including the Companys $14.3 million pro rata portion of indebtedness relating to the Companys joint venture
investment in the Chicago Marriott Downtown hotel, was subject to variable interest rates.



If market rates of interest on the Companys variable rate long-term debt increase by 0.25%, the increase in interest expense on the variable long-term rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by
approximately $0.3 million annually. On the other hand, if market rates of interest on the variable rate long-term debt decrease by 0.25%, the decrease in interest expense on the variable rate long-term debt would increase future earnings and cash
flows by approximately $0.3 million annually. This assumes that the amount outstanding under the Companys variable rate debt remains at $87.5 million, the balance at December 31, 2005.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



The Shareholders and Board of Trustees

LaSalle Hotel Properties:



We have audited the consolidated financial statements of LaSalle Hotel
Properties (the Company) as listed in the accompanying Index to Financial Statements. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying Index
to Financial Statements. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits.



We conducted
our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LaSalle Hotel
Properties as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.



We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of LaSalle Hotel Properties internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework
issued by theCommittee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 22, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on managements assessment of, and the effective operation of, internal
control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



The Shareholders and Board of Trustees

LaSalle Hotel Properties:



We have audited managements assessment, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting,
that LaSalle Hotel Properties (the Company) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established inInternal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over
financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on managements assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.



We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our
audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures
as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.



A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors
of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.



Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.



In
our opinion, managements assessment that LaSalle Hotel Properties maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established inInternal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by COSO. Also, in our opinion, LaSalle Hotel Properties maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria
established inInternal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by COSO.



LaSalle Hotel Properties acquired Onyx Hotel, Westin Copley Place, University Tower Hotel, Hilton San Diego Resort and Washington Grande Hotel on May 18, 2005, August 31, 2005, December 8,
2005, December 15, 2005 and December 16, 2005, respectively, and management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of LaSalle Hotel Properties internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005,
these hotels internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of approximately $524,473,000 and total revenues of approximately $34,752,000 included in the consolidated financial statements of LaSalle Hotel Properties as
of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of LaSalle Hotel Properties also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of these hotels.



We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of LaSalle Hotel Properties as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each
of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2005, and our report dated February 22, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

LASALLE HOTEL PROPERTIES



Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, expect per share data)



1. Organization and Initial Public Offering



LaSalle Hotel Properties (the Company) was organized in the state
of Maryland on January 15, 1998 as a real estate investment trust (REIT) as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. The Company was formed to own hotel properties. The Company had no operations prior to April 24, 1998, at which
time the Company completed its initial public offering. The Company buys, owns and leases upscale and luxury full-service hotels located in convention, resort and major urban business markets.



As of December 31, 2005, the Company owned interests in 26 hotels with
approximately 8,300 suites/rooms located in eleven states and the District of Columbia. The Company owns 100% equity interests in 25 of the hotels and a non-controlling 9.9% equity interest in a joint venture that owns one hotel. Each hotel is
leased under a participating lease that provides for rental payments equal to the greater of (i) a base rent or (ii) a participating rent based on hotel revenues. An independent hotel operator manages each hotel. Two of the hotels are
leased to unaffiliated lessees (affiliates of whom also operate these hotels) and 23 of the hotels are leased to the Companys taxable-REIT subsidiary, LaSalle Hotel Lessee, Inc. (LHL), or a wholly-owned subsidiary of LHL (see Note 14). Lease
revenue from LHL and its wholly-owned subsidiaries is eliminated in consolidation. The hotel that is owned by the joint venture that owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown is leased to Chicago 540 Lessee, Inc. in which the Company has a non-controlling
9.9% equity interest (see Note 2).



Substantially all of the
Companys assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership. The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company owned approximately 99.6% of the common units of the
Operating Partnership at December 31, 2005. The remaining 0.4% is held by limited partners who hold 143,090 limited partnership common units at December 31, 2005. Common units of the Operating Partnership are redeemable for cash or, at the
option of the Company, for a like number of common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company. In addition, another limited partner owns 2,348,888 preferred units of limited interest in the Operating Partnership having
an aggregate liquidation value of approximately $58,722 and bearing an annual cumulative distribution of 7.25% on the liquidation preference. The hotels are leased under participating leases that provide for rental payments equal to the greater of
(i) base rent or (ii) participating rent based on fixed percentages of gross hotel revenues.



2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



Basis of Presentation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, LHL and its subsidiaries and partnerships in which it has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated.



Use of Estimates



The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and the amounts of contingent assets and
liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



Fair Value of Financial Instruments



Fair value is determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Borrowings under the
senior unsecured credit facility, borrowings under LHLs credit facility and the



F-9



---

Massachusetts Port Authority Special Project Revenue Bonds bear interest at variable market rates, carrying values approximate market value at
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The carrying amount of the Companys other debt approximates fair value. The carrying amount of the Companys other financial instruments approximate fair value because of the relatively short
maturities of these instruments.



Investment in Hotel
Properties



Upon acquisition, the Company allocates the
purchase price of assets to asset classes based on the fair value of the acquired real estate, furniture, fixtures and equipment, assumed debt and intangible assets. The Companys investments in hotel properties are carried at cost and are
depreciated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30 to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for building improvements, 20 years for golf course land improvements, 20 years for pool assets, and three to five years for
furniture, fixtures and equipment. Furniture fixtures and equipment under capital leases are carried at the present value of the minimum lease payments.



The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of each hotel to determine if circumstances exist indicating impairment to the carrying value of the
investment in the hotel or that depreciation periods should be modified. If facts or circumstances support the possibility of impairment, the Company will prepare an estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, without interest charges, of the
specific hotel and determine if the investment in such hotel is recoverable based on the undiscounted future cash flows. If impairment is indicated, an adjustment will be made to the carrying value of the hotel to reflect the hotel at fair value.
The Company does not believe that there are any facts or circumstances indicating impairment of any of its hotels.



In July 2003, the Companys management changed its intent from holding its investment in the Holiday Inn Beachside Resort to selling the property due
to the projected cost of renovating the property and receiving an unsolicited offer to purchase the property. As a result, the Company wrote down its investment in the Holiday Inn Beachside Resort by $2,453 to its estimated fair value, net of
estimated costs to sell. The Board of Trustees approved managements plan to sell the asset in July 2003, and the asset was sold in July 2003.



In accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets, a hotel is considered held for sale when a contract for sale is entered into or when management has committed to a plan to sell an asset, the asset is actively marketed and sale is expected to occur within one year.



Interest and real estate taxes incurred during the renovation
period are capitalized and depreciating over the lives of the renovated assets. Capitalized interest for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $1,178, $783 and $289, respectively.



Intangible Assets



The Company has an intangible asset for rights to build in the future at the
Lansdowne Resort, which has an indefinite useful life. The Company does not amortize intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. The non-amortizable intangible asset is reviewed annually for impairment and more frequently if events or
circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. If a non-amortizable intangible asset is subsequently determined to have a finite useful life, the intangible asset will be written down to the lower of its fair value or carrying amount and
then amortized prospectively, based on the remaining useful life of the intangible asset. The intangible asset for rights to build in the future is included in property under development in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.



Investment in Joint Venture



Investment in joint venture represents the Companys non-controlling
9.9% equity interest in each of (i) the joint venture that owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown and (ii) Chicago 540 Lessee, Inc., both of which are associated with the Chicago Marriott Downtown. The Carlyle Group owns a 90.1% controlling
interest in both



F-10



---

the Chicago 540 Hotel Venture and Chicago 540 Lessee, Inc. The Company accounts for its investment in joint venture under the equity method of accounting,
and receives an annual preferred return in addition to its pro rata share of annual cash flow. The Company also has the opportunity to earn an incentive participation in net sale proceeds based upon the achievement of certain overall investment
returns, in addition to its pro rata share of net sale or refinancing proceeds. Marriott International, Inc. operates the Chicago Marriott Downtown pursuant to a long-term incentive-based operating agreement.



The joint venture that owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown and in which the
Company holds a non-controlling 9.9% ownership interest was subject to two mortgage loans for an aggregate amount of $120,000. The mortgage loans had two-year terms, and were due to expire in July 2004. On April 6, 2004, the joint venture that
owns the Chicago Marriott Downtown refinanced its existing two mortgage loans with a new mortgage loan for an aggregate amount of $140,000. Upon refinancing, the Company received approximately $1,822 in cash representing its prorated share of the
proceeds. The new mortgage loan has a two-year term, expires in April 2006, and can be extended at the option of the joint venture for three additional one-year terms. The mortgage bears interest at the London InterBank Offered Rate plus 2.25%. The
joint venture has purchased a cap on the London InterBank Offered Rate capping the London InterBank Offered Rate at 7.25%, effectively limiting the rate on the mortgage to 9.5%. As of December 31, 2005, the interest rate on this mortgage was
6.63%. Monthly interest-only payments are due in arrears throughout the term. The Chicago Marriott Downtown secures the mortgage. The Companys pro rata share of the loan is $13,860 and is included in the Companys liquidity and capital
resources discussion and in calculating debt coverage ratios under the Companys credit facility. No guarantee exists on behalf of the Company for this mortgage.



On November 2, 2004, the Chicago 540 Hotel Venture, in which the Company has a non-controlling 9.9% ownership interest,
obtained a three and a half year commitment for a $5,750 FF&E credit facility to be used for partial funding of the FF&E costs related to the property. The FF&E credit facility matures on the earlier of (i) April 30, 2008, or
(ii) three years from the date on which the final borrowing is made. The borrower has an option to borrow portions of the principal debt bearing interest with reference to the base rate or to LIBOR, and portions may be converted from one
interest basis to another. Base rate will be the greater of (i) the rate established by the lender as a base rate and which is designated by the lender as its U.S. prime rate, or (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. LIBOR rate will be
set two business days before the start of an interest period. The Chicago 540 Hotel Venture purchased a cap on London InterBank Offered Rate capping the London InterBank Offered Rate at 7.5%. Consistent with ownership interest, the Company is
guaranteeing 9.9% of the credit facility. The Companys maximum exposure under the FF&E facility is $569, and the guarantee will expire at the maturity of the credit facility. In the event of default, any outstanding principal and accrued
interest will be due and payable. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004 there was $4,694 and zero, respectively outstanding under the FF&E credit facility. The Companys pro rata share of the borrowings outstanding under the FF&E
facility was $465 and zero at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Company believes that the likelihood that the Company will be required to pay under the guarantee is remote, and therefore, a liability has not been recorded. The
Companys pro rata share of the outstanding borrowings is included in the Companys liquidity and capital resources discussion and in calculating debt coverage ratios under the Companys credit facility.



Derivative/Financial Instruments



In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effects of
interest rate changes. As of December 31, 2005, approximately 15.2% (including the Companys $14,325 pro rata portion of indebtedness relating to the Companys joint venture investment in the Chicago Marriott Downtown) of the
Companys borrowings were subject to variable rates. The Company limits the risks associated with interest rate changes by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. For interest rate
exposures, derivatives are used primarily to align rate movements between interest rates associated with the Companys hotel operating revenue, participating lease revenue and other financial assets with interest rates on related debt, and
manage the cost of borrowing obligations. The Company utilizes derivative financial



F-11



---

instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risk. The Company requires that hedging derivative instruments be effective in reducing the interest rate risk
exposure that they are designated to hedge. This effectiveness is essential in order to qualify for hedge accounting. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract. When
the terms of an underlying transaction are modified, or when the underlying hedged item ceases to exist, all changes in the fair value of the instrument are marked-to-market with changes in value included in net income each period until the
instrument matures.



The Company has a policy of only entering
into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. When viewed in conjunction with the underlying and offsetting exposure that the derivatives are designed to hedge, the Company has not sustained a
material loss from those instruments nor does it anticipate any material adverse effect on its net income or financial position in the future from the use of derivatives.



To manage interest rate risk, the Company may employ options, forwards, interest rate swaps, caps and floors or a
combination thereof depending on the underlying exposure. The Company utilizes a variety of borrowings including lines of credit and medium and long-term financings. To reduce overall interest cost, the Company uses interest rate instruments,
typically interest rate swaps, to convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. Interest rate differentials that arise under these swap contracts are recognized in interest expense over the life of the contracts. The resulting cost
of funds is usually lower than that which would have been available if debt with matching characteristics was issued directly.



To determine the fair values of derivative instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and
risks existing as of each valuation date. For the majority of financial instruments including most derivatives and long-term debt, standard market conventions and techniques such as discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models, replacement
cost, and termination cost are used to determine fair value. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized.



Cash and Cash Equivalents



All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.



Restricted Cash Reserves



At December 31, 2005, the Company held $20,845 in restricted cash
reserves. Included in such amounts are (i) $8,758 of reserve funds relating to the hotels with leases or operating agreements requiring the Company to maintain restricted cash to fund future capital expenditures, (ii) $8,778 as security
for a surety bond in furtherance of the Companys appeal from the June 9, 2005 court judgment with respect to the New Orleans hotel, (iii) $500 for future renovations and conversion costs expected to be incurred because of the
Bloomington property re-branding under the Sheraton brand affiliation and (iv) $2,809 deposited in mortgage escrow accounts pursuant to mortgage obligations to pre-fund a portion of certain hotel expenses.



Deferred Financing Costs



Financing costs related to long-term debt are recorded at cost and are
amortized as interest expense over the life of the related debt instrument. Accumulated amortization at December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $9,017 and $7,406, respectively.



Revenue Recognition



For properties not leased by LHL, the Company recognizes lease revenue on an accrual basis pursuant to the terms of each participating lease. Base and
participating rent are each recognized based on quarterly thresholds



F-12



---

pursuant to each participating lease (see Note 13). For properties leased by LHL, the Company recognizes hotel operating revenue on an accrual basis
consistent with the hotel operations.



For the Lansdowne
Resort, the Company defers golf membership fees and recognizes revenue over the average expected life of an active membership (currently six years) on a straight-line basis. Golf membership, health club and executive club annual dues are recognized
as earned throughout the membership year. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004 deferred membership revenue was $7,766 and $5,615, respectively. The Company recorded revenue of $1,751, $956, and $311 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004,
and 2003, respectively.



Minority Interest



Minority interest in the Operating Partnership represents the limited
partners proportionate share of the equity in the Operating Partnership. During 2005 and 2004, respectively, 240,000 and 41,596 common units of limited partnership interest were redeemed by unitholders. At December 31, 2005, the limited
partners held 143,090 common units of limited partnership interest. At December 31, 2005, the limited partners held 2,348,888 preferred units. Income is allocated to the common unit minority interest based on the weighted average percentage
ownership throughout the year and to the preferred unit minority interest based upon 7.25% on the liquidation preference.



Outstanding Operating Partnership units of limited partnership interest are redeemable for cash or, at the option of the Company, for a like number of
shares of beneficial interest of the Company.



Stock-Based
Compensation



Prior to 2003, the Company applied Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for the 1998 share option and incentive plan. Accordingly, no compensation costs were recognized for stock options granted to the Companys employees, as all options
granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement No. 123 prospectively
for all options granted to employees and members of the Board of Trustees. No options were granted during 2005, 2004 and 2003. Options granted under the 1998 share option and incentive plan vest over three to four years, therefore the costs related
to stock-based compensation for 2005, 2004 and 2003 are less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based method had been applied to all grants since the original effective date of Statement No. 123.



The Company has applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and
related interpretations in accounting for the 1998 share option and incentive plan. Accordingly, no compensation costs have been recognized. Had compensation cost for all of the options granted under the Companys 1998 share option and
incentive plan been determined in accordance with the method required by Statement No. 123, the Companys net income and net income per common share for 2005, 2004 and 2003 would approximate the pro forma amounts below (in thousands,
except per share data).

From time to time, the Company awards restricted stock shares under the 1998 share option and incentive
plan to trustees, executive officers and employees, which vest over three or four years. The Company recognizes compensation expense over the vesting period equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of issuance, adjusted for any
forfeiture. In 2005, 2004 and 2003, 79,242, 9,465 and 134,436 shares, respectively, of restricted stock were granted to certain trustees, executive officers and employees. In 2005 and 2004, 3,162 and 3,466 shares, respectively, were forfeited.
Deferred compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $1,262, $1,259 and $940, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value per share granted during 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $31.70, $26.57 and $18.01,
respectively. Under these awards 233,370 shares were outstanding at December 31, 2005.



Reclassification



Certain 2004 and 2003 financial statement accounts have been reclassified to conform with 2005 presentations.



Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements



In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (FIN 47), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143. FIN 47 refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the
control of the entity. An entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair value of a liability for the conditional
asset retirement obligation should be recognized when incurred, generally upon acquisition, construction, or development and through the normal operation of the asset. This interpretation is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending
after December 31, 2005. Adoption did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



In June 2005, the FASB ratified the EITFs consensus on Issue No. 04-5 Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a
Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights. This consensus established the presumption that general partners in a limited partnership control that limited partnership regardless of the
extent of the general partners ownership interest in the limited partnership. The consensus further establishes that the rights of the limited partners can overcome the presumption of control by the general partners, if the limited partners
have either (a) the substantive ability to dissolve (liquidate) the limited partnership or otherwise remove the general partners without cause or (b) substantive participating rights. Whether the presumption of control is overcome is a
matter of judgment based on the facts and circumstances, for which the consensus provides additional guidance. This consensus is currently applicable to the Company for new or modified partnerships, and will otherwise be applicable to existing
partnerships in 2006. This consensus applies to limited partnerships or similar entities, such as limited liability companies that have governing provisions that are the functional equivalent of a limited partnership. The Company is currently
evaluating the effect of this consensus on its Joint Venture.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However,
SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The new standard
will be effective for the Company in the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. Adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company.



Income Taxes



The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To
qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of



F-14



---

organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to its
shareholders. It is the Companys current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Companys qualification for taxation as a REIT. As a REIT, the Company generally is not subject to federal corporate income tax on that
portion of its net income that is currently distributed to shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable
alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to
federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through taxable REIT subsidiaries is subject to federal, state and local income taxes. As a wholly-owned taxable-REIT
subsidiary of the Company, LHL is required to pay income taxes at the applicable rates.



Earnings Per Share



Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares of beneficial interest outstanding during the year excluding the weighted average number of unvested restricted shares. Diluted earnings per share is based on
the weighted average number of common shares of beneficial interest outstanding plus the effect of in-the-money stock options.



3. Acquisition of Hotel Properties



On February 10, 2004, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, a 615-room, AAA Four Diamond full-service hotel
located in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana, for $106,000. The source of the funding for the acquisition was the Companys senior unsecured credit facility, a portion of which was repaid when the Company entered into a mortgage agreement secured
by the Indianapolis property in February 2004. The property is leased to LHL, and White Lodging Services Corporation manages the property.



On May 28, 2004, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Hilton Alexandria Old Town, a 241-room, upscale full-service hotel located in the heart
of historic downtown Alexandria, Virginia, for $59,000. The source of the funding for the acquisition was the Companys senior unsecured credit facility. The property is leased to LHL, and Sandcastle Resorts & Hotels manages the
property.



On November 18, 2004, the Company acquired a
100% interest in the Chaminade Resort and Conference Center, a 153-room, AAA Four Diamond resort and executive conference center located in Santa Cruz, California, for $18,500. The source of the funding for the acquisition was the Companys
senior unsecured credit facility. The property is leased to LHL, and Benchmark Hospitality manages the property.



On January 6, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter, a 282-room urban upscale full-service hotel located
in the historic Gaslamp district of San Diego, California for $85,120. The source of funding for the acquisition was the Companys senior unsecured credit facility, a portion of which was repaid when the Company entered into a mortgage
agreement secured by the Gaslamp property in June 2005. The property is leased to LHL, and is managed by Davidson Hotel Company.



On January 10, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in The Grafton on Sunset, an upscale full-service hotel with 108 well-appointed guestrooms
and suites, located in the heart of West Hollywood, for $25,540. The source of funding for the acquisition was the Companys senior unsecured credit facility. The property is leased to LHL, and is managed by Outrigger Lodging Services.



On May 18, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in
the Onyx Hotel, an urban, luxury full-service hotel with 112 well-appointed guestrooms, located in historic downtown Boston, for approximately $28,671. The source of funding for the acquisition was the Companys senior unsecured credit

On August 31, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Westin Copley Place, a 803-room, AAA
Four Diamond, urban full-service hotel located in downtown Boston, Massachusetts, for aggregate consideration of $324,000 after expenses. The source of funding for the acquisition was the assumption of a $210,000 first mortgage on the property which
does not allow for prepayment without penalty prior to May 31, 2015, $59,000 in preferred units of the Operating Partnership and the balance with proceeds from the Companys senior unsecured credit facility. The property is leased to LHL,
and Starwood Hotels and Resorts continues to manage the property. Pursuant to the acquisition of the Westin Copley Place, the Company entered into a Tax Reporting and Protection Agreement (the Tax Agreement) with SCG Copley Square LLC
(SCG). Under the Tax Agreement, the Company is required, among other things, to indemnify SCG (and its affiliates) for certain income tax liabilities that such entities would incur if the Westin Copley Place was transferred by the
Company in a taxable transaction or if the Company fails to maintain a certain level of indebtedness with respect to the Westin Copley Place or its operations. The obligations of the Company under the Tax Protection Agreement (i) do not apply
in the case of a foreclosure of the Westin Copley Place, if certain specified requirements are met, (ii) are limited to $20,000 (although a limitation of $10,000 is applicable to certain specified transactions), and (iii) terminate on the
earlier of the tenth anniversary of the Companys acquisition of the Westin Copley Place or January 1, 2016. The Company believes that the likelihood that the Company will be required to pay under the Tax Agreement is remote, and
therefore, a liability has not been recorded.



On
December 8, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in The University Tower Hotel, an urban, upscale full-service hotel with 158 stylish guestrooms located in Seattles University District, two blocks from the University of Washington
and within minutes of downtown Seattle, Washington, for approximately $26,400. The source of funding for the acquisition was the assumption of an approximately $10,761 first mortgage on the property and the balance with the Companys senior
unsecured credit facility. The Company leases the hotel to LHL, and Noble House Hotels & Resorts was selected to manage the property.



On December 15, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Hilton San Diego Resort, a AAA Four Diamond, full-service resort with 357
guestrooms/suites, located directly on the waterfront of Mission Bay Park, the largest aquatic preserve in the United States, for approximately $90,392. The source of funding for the acquisition was the December 9, 2005 common share equity
offering and the Companys senior unsecured credit facility. The property is leased to LHL and Noble House Hotels & Resorts was selected to manage the property.



On December 16, 2005, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Holiday Inn Downtown and renamed it the Washington
Grande Hotel, an urban, full-service hotel with 212 guestrooms, located in the heart of downtown Washington, DC, for approximately $44,600. The source of funding for the acquisition was the Companys senior unsecured credit facility. The
Company anticipates investing over $21,000 in a renovation and repositioning similar to those performed on the Companys DC Urban Collection purchased in March 2001. Upon anticipated completion of the renovation and repositioning in 2007, the
hotel will be operated as a luxury high-style, independent hotel. The Company leases the hotel to LHL.

5. Notes Receivable

to third party lessees was $295 at both December 31, 2005 and 2004. The working capital notes receivable bear interest at either 5.6% or 9.0% per annum and have terms identical to the terms of the related participating lease. The working

6. Discontinued Operations



Effective
May 9, 2005, the Company entered into an exclusive listing agreement for the sale of the Seaview Resort and Spa. The asset was classified as held for sale at that time because the property was being actively marketed and the sale was expected
to occur within one year; accordingly, depreciation was suspended. Based on initial pricing expectations, the Company expected to recognize a gain on the sale; therefore, no impairment had been recognized. In September 2005, the Company changed its
intent to sell the Seaview Resort and Spa. Though pricing was above the book value of the asset, it was below the Companys target. The Company evaluated the carrying value of the hotel and determined no impairment exists. The Company
reclassified the Seaview Resort and Spa as held and used and adjusted for depreciation expense of $1,040 in the third quarter that would have been recognized had the asset been continuously classified as held and used.



On August 1, 2002, the Company classified the New Orleans property as
held for sale and accordingly, depreciation was suspended. On April 21, 2003, the Company sold the New Orleans Grande Hotel for $92,500 resulting in a gain of approximately $37,087. The gain is recorded in discontinued operations in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Total revenues related to the asset of $6,267, comprised of primarily participating rent and hotel operating revenues, and income before income tax expense related to the asset of $62 for the year
ended December 31, 2003, are included in discontinued operations.



In July 2003, management of the Company changed its intent from holding its investment in the Holiday Inn Beachside Resort, located in Key West, Florida, to selling the property due to the projected cost of renovating the property and
receiving an unsolicited offer to purchase the property. As a result, the Company wrote down its investment in the Holiday Inn Beachside Resort by $2,453 during the second quarter 2003 to its estimated fair value, net of estimated costs to sell. The
writedown is recorded in impairment of investment in hotel property in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. On July 16, 2003, the Board of Trustees approved managements commitment to a plan to sell the Holiday Inn Beachside
Resort. The asset was classified as held for sale at that time because sale was expected to occur within one year; accordingly, depreciation was suspended. On July 25, 2003, the Company sold the Holiday Inn Beachside Resort for $17,170. The
Company recognized a loss on the sale of the asset of $425 at the time of the sale. The loss is recorded in discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Total revenues related to the asset of $5,429, comprised of
primarily participating rent and hotel operating revenues, and income before income tax benefit related to the asset of $903 for the year ended December 31, 2003, are included in discontinued operations.

Effective January 16, 2004, the Company entered into an exclusive listing agreement for the sale of
its Omaha property. The asset was classified as held for sale at that time because the property was being actively marketed and sale was expected to occur within one year; accordingly, depreciation was suspended. On September 15, 2004, the
Company sold the Omaha Marriott hotel for $28,500, resulting in a gain of approximately $2,636. The gain is recorded in discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Total revenues related to the asset of $9,828,
comprised of primarily hotel operating revenues, and income before income tax expense related to the asset of $1,910 for the year ended December 31, 2004 are included in discontinued operations. Revenues and expenses for the year ended
December 31, 2003 have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.



The Company allocates interest expense to discontinued operations for debt that is to be assumed or that is required to be repaid as a result of the disposal transaction. The Company allocated $0, $0 and $1,678 of
interest expense to discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.



As of December 31, 2004, the Company had unsettled assets and liabilities of $0 and $162, respectively, related to the sale of the Omaha property. At
December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had no assets and liabilities for assets held for sale.



7. Disposition of Land



On March 15, 2005, the Company sold approximately 8 acres of land located at the Lansdowne Resort for $1,500, resulting in income of approximately $418, net of closing cost, which is included in other income on the consolidated
financial statements. At the time the Company purchased the Lansdowne Resort, the seller had entered into a contract with a third party for the sale of the 8 acres. The 8 acre contract was assigned to the Company at closing and the purchase/sale
agreement related to the acquisition of the resort required the Company to pay the seller upon completion of the sale $1,080 of net sale proceeds which represented the expected sales price for the land. On March 21, 2005, the Company made the
$1,080 payment to the seller resulting in the gain of $418.

Credit Facility



The Company has a senior unsecured credit facility from a
syndicate of banks that provides for a maximum borrowing of up to $300,000. On June 9, 2005, the Company amended the credit facility to extend the credit facilitys maturity date to June 9, 2008 with a one-year extension option and to
reduce the applicable margin pricing by a range of 0.25% to 0.5%. The senior unsecured credit facility contains certain financial covenants relating to debt service coverage, net worth and total funded indebtedness and contains financial covenants
that, assuming no continuing defaults, allow the Company to make shareholder distributions which, when combined with the distributions to shareholders in the three immediately preceding fiscal quarters, do not exceed the greater of (i) ninety
percent of the funds from operations from the preceding four-quarter rolling period or (ii) the greater of (a) the amount of distributions required for the Company to maintain its status as a REIT or (b) the amount required to ensure
the Company will avoid imposition of an excise tax for failure to make certain minimum distributions on a calendar year basis. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at floating rates equal to, at the Companys option, either
(i) London InterBank Offered Rate plus an applicable margin, or (ii) an Adjusted Base Rate plus an applicable margin. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants and was not otherwise in
default under the credit facility. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility was approximately 5.0% and 3.7%, respectively. The Company did not
have any Adjusted Base Rate borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2005. Additionally, the Company is required to pay a variable unused commitment fee determined from a ratings or leverage based pricing matrix, currently set at 0.2% of the
unused portion of the senior unsecured credit facility. The Company incurred an unused commitment fee of approximately $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2005 and
2004, the Company had $30,000 and zero, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under the senior unsecured credit facility.



LHL has a $25,000 unsecured revolving credit facility to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. On June 9, 2005, LHL amended the
credit facility to extend the credit facility maturity date to June 9, 2008 with a one-year extension option and to reduce the applicable margin pricing by a range of 0.25% to 0.5%. Borrowings under the LHL credit facility bear interest at
floating rates equal to, at LHLs option, either (i) London InterBank Offered Rate plus an applicable margin, or (ii) an Adjusted Base Rate plus an applicable margin. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in
compliance with all debt covenants and was not otherwise in default under the credit facility. The weighted average interest rate under the LHL credit facility for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was 4.9% and 3.6%, respectively. LHL
is required to pay a variable unused commitment fee determined from a ratings or leverage based pricing matrix, currently set at 0.2% of the unused portion of the LHL credit facility. LHL incurred an immaterial commitment fee for each of the years
ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had $655 and zero, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under LHL credit facility.

Bonds Payable



The Company is the obligor with respect to a $37,100 tax-exempt special project revenue bond and $5,400 taxable special
project revenue bond, both issued by the Massachusetts Port Authority (collectively, the MassPort Bonds). The MassPort Bonds, which mature on March 1, 2018, bear interest based on a weekly floating rate and have no principal
reductions prior to their scheduled maturities. The MassPort Bonds may be redeemed at any time at the Companys option without penalty. The bonds are secured by letters of credit issued by GE Capital Corporation that expire in 2007 and the
letters of credit are collateralized by the Harborside Hyatt Conference Center & Hotel and a $6,000 letter of credit from the Company. If GE Capital Corporation fails to renew its letters of credit at expiration and an acceptable
replacement provider cannot be found, the Company may be required to pay-off the bonds. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the weighted average interest rate on the MassPort bonds was 2.6% and 1.3%, respectively. Interest expense
for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $1,109 and $552, respectively. In addition to interest payments, the Company incurs a 2.0% annual maintenance fee, which is included in amortization of deferred finance fees. At
December 31, 2005, the Company had outstanding bonds payable of $42,500.



Mortgage Loans



On
June 8, 2005 the Company entered into a $59,600 seven-year mortgage loan that is secured by the Hilton San Diego Gaslamp Quarter. The mortgage loan matures on June 1, 2012 and does not allow for prepayment without penalty prior to
February 1, 2012. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.35% and requires interest only payments through maturity.



On August 31, 2005, in connection with the acquisition of the Westin Copley Place, the Company assumed a $210,000 ten-year mortgage secured by the
Westin Copley Place. The mortgage loan matures on August 31, 2015, and does not allow for prepayment without penalty prior to May 31, 2015. The mortgage loan bears interest at 5.28% and has monthly interest only payments until maturity.
The loan contains cash management and lock-box provisions that allow the lender to direct net income from the hotel to ensure that items such as real estate taxes, insurance, and property maintenance are adequately funded.



On December 8, 2005, in connection with the acquisition of the
University Tower Hotel, the Company assumed a $10,761 mortgage secured by the University Tower Hotel. The mortgage loan matures on August 1, 2014 and does not allow prepayment without penalty. The mortgage loan bears interest at 6.276% and has
monthly interest and principal payments of $73. As the market interest rate at the date of acquisition was below the mortgage interest rate, the Company recorded a loan premium of $619 which is recorded as an increase to the carrying value of the
loan. The loan premium is amortized as interest expense for the remaining life of the loan.

9. Commitments and Contingencies



Ground and Air Rights Leases



Four of the Companys hotels, San Diego Paradise Point Resort, Harborside Hyatt Conference Center & Hotel, Indianapolis Marriott Downtown
and Hilton San Diego Resort and the parking lot at Sheraton Bloomington Hotel Minneapolis South are subject to ground leases under non-cancelable operating leases expiring from 2016 to June 2099. The Westin Copley Place is subject to a long term air
rights lease which expires on December 14, 2077 and requires no payments through maturity. In addition, one of the two golf courses, the Pines, at Seaview Resort and Spa is subject to a ground lease, which expires on December 31, 2012 and
may be renewed for 15 successive periods of 10 years. The ground leases related to the Pines golf course and the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown require future ground rent of one dollar per year. Total ground lease expense for the years ended
December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 was $3,986, $3,493 and $3,689, respectively. Future minimum ground lease payments (without reflecting future applicable Consumer Price Index increases) are as follows (dollars in thousands):

|           |  | $ | 158,259
|           |  |   |        



Reserve Funds



The Company is obligated to maintain reserve funds for
capital expenditures at the hotels (including the periodic replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment) as determined pursuant to the management, franchise, and mortgage agreements. The Companys aggregate obligation under
the reserve funds was approximately $30,212 at December 31, 2005. Three management agreements, one franchise agreement and one mortgage agreement require that the Company reserve restricted cash ranging from 3.0% to 5.5% of the individual
hotels annual revenues. As of December 31, 2005, $8,758 was available in restricted cash reserves for future capital expenditures. Twenty of the management agreements require that the Company reserve funds of 4.0% of the individual
hotels annual revenues but do not require the funds to be set aside in restricted cash. As of December 31, 2005, the total amount obligated for potential future capital expenditures but not set aside in restricted cash reserves was
$21,454. In addition, one of the twenty hotels with a management agreement which does not require the cash to be set aside, also has a loan agreement which requires the Company to set aside an additional reserve of $16 per month. Amounts will be
recorded as incurred. As of December 31, 2005, purchase orders and letters of commitment totaling approximately $16,500 have been issued for renovations at the hotels. The Company has committed to these projects and anticipates making similar
arrangements with the existing hotels or any future hotels that it may acquire. Any unexpended amounts will remain the property of the Company upon termination of the participating leases.



The joint venture lease requires that the joint venture reserve restricted
cash of 5.0% of the Chicago Marriott Downtowns annual revenues; however, the joint venture is not consolidated in the Companys financial statements and the amount of restricted cash reserves relating to the joint venture is not recorded
on the Companys books and records.



Litigation



The Company has engaged Starwood Hotels & Resorts
Worldwide, Inc. to manage and operate its Dallas hotel under the Westin brand affiliation. Meridien Hotels, Inc. (Meridien) affiliates had been operating the Dallas property as a wrongful holdover tenant, until the Westin brand
conversion occurred on July 14, 2003 under court order.

On December 20, 2002, affiliates of Meridien abandoned the Companys New Orleans hotel. The
Company entered into a lease with a wholly-owned subsidiary of LHL and an interim management agreement with Interstate Hotels & Resorts, Inc., and re-named the hotel the New Orleans Grande Hotel. The New Orleans property thereafter was sold
on April 21, 2003 for $92,500.



In connection with the
termination of the Meridien affiliates at these hotels, the Company is currently in litigation with Meridien and related affiliates. The Company believes its sole potential obligation in connection with the termination of the leases is to pay fair
market value of the leases, if any. With respect to the Dallas hotel, the Company has obtained a judgment from the court that Meridien defaulted and that Meridien is not entitled to the payment of fair market value. The Companys damage claims
against Meridien went to trial in March 2005, and a final judgment was entered for the Company in the amount of $3,903, plus post-judgment interest. Meridien has indicated that it plans to appeal. With respect to the New Orleans hotel, arbitration
of the fair market value of the New Orleans lease commenced in October 2002. On December 19, 2002, the arbitration panel determined that Meridien was entitled to an award of approximately $5,700, subject to adjustment (reduction) by the courts
to account for Meridiens holdover. In order to dispute the arbitration decision, the Company was required to post a $7,800 surety bond, which was secured by $5,900 of restricted cash. The Company successfully challenged the award on appeal,
and the dispute was remanded to the trial court. Meridiens request for rehearing was denied on March 31, 2004, and Meridien did not petition to the Louisiana Supreme Court. In June 2004, the $7,800 surety bond was released and the $5,900
restricted cash securing it was returned to the Company. The issue of default by the lessee and the Companys wrongful holdover claim, as well as Meridiens damage claims arising from the termination of its leasehold, among other claims,
went to trial in February 2005. On June 9, 2005, the trial court issued its judgment denying the Companys default claim as well as Meridiens fraud claim, and re-determined fair market value to be $8,572, plus interest.
The Company has noticed an appeal from the trial courts judgment. On July 18, 2005, the Company posted a $8,633 surety bond, which was secured by $8,778 of restricted cash.



On April 22, 2005, the Company filed suit against Meridien in Delaware state court alleging certain defaults, including
non-payment of rent and other breaches in connection with the transition at the New Orleans hotel. Preliminary motions are set to be heard in February 2006. That matter has not yet been set for trial.



In 2002, the Company recognized a net $2,520 contingent lease termination
expense and reversed previously deferred assets and liabilities related to the termination of both the New Orleans property and Dallas property leases and recorded a corresponding contingent liability included in accounts payable and accrued
expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company believes, however, it is owed holdover rent per the lease terms due to Meridiens failure to vacate the properties as required under the leases. The contingent lease
termination expense was, therefore, net of the holdover rent the Company believes it is entitled to for both properties. In 2003, the Company adjusted this liability by additional holdover rent of $827 that it believes it is entitled to for the
Dallas property. These amounts were recorded as other income in the Companys December 31, 2003 consolidated financial statements. The contingent lease termination expense recognized cumulatively since 2002 is comprised of (dollars in
thousands):

In September 2004, after evaluating the ongoing Meridien litigation, the Company accrued additional net
legal fees of $850 due to litigation timeline changes in order to conclude this matter. In June 2005, after further evaluation of the ongoing Meridien litigation, the Company accrued an additional $1,000 in legal fees. As a result, the net
contingent lease termination liability has a balance of approximately $1,688 as of December 31, 2005, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Based on the claims the Company has
against Meridien, the Company is and will continue to challenge Meridiens claim that it is entitled to the payment of fair market value, and will continue to seek reimbursement of legal fees and damages. These amounts may exceed or otherwise
may be used to offset any amounts potentially owed to Meridien, and therefore, ultimately may offset or otherwise reduce any contingent lease termination expense. Additionally, the Company cannot provide any assurances that the holdover rents or any
damages will be collectible from Meridien or that the amounts due will not be greater than the recorded contingent lease termination expense.



The Company maintained a lien on Meridiens security deposit on both disputed properties with an aggregate value of approximately $3,300, in
accordance with the lease agreements. The security deposits were liquidated in May 2003 with the proceeds used to partially satisfy Meridiens outstanding obligations. The judgment entered by the Dallas Court already incorporates a set-off in
the amount of $989 attributable to the security deposit for the Dallas property.



Meridien also has sued the Company and one of the Companys officers alleging that certain actions taken in anticipation of re-branding the Dallas and New Orleans hotels under the Westin brand affiliation
constituted unfair trade practices, false advertising, trademark infringement, trademark dilution and tortious interference. The parties have reached an agreement to settle this matter through dismissal of all claims with prejudice, with no
consideration to be paid from either party to the other, although settlement documents have not yet been fully executed.



The Company does not believe that the amount of any fees or damages it may be required to pay on any of the litigation related to Meridien will have a
material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations, taken as a whole. The Companys management has discussed this contingency and the related accounting treatment with the audit committee of its Board of
Trustees.



The Company initiated a lawsuit against Marriott
Hotel Services, Inc. in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, in connection with Marriotts implementation of certain expenditures without the Companys approval at the LaGuardia Airport Marriott. The Company
alleged breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty by Marriott Hotel Services, Inc., among other claims. The trial court dismissed the Companys claims before receiving any evidence, and the Company has appealed from the courts
decision. The appeal was argued in January 2006, and a decision has not yet been issued by the appeals court.



The Company accrues for future legal fees related to contingent liabilities based upon managements estimate. The Company is not presently subject to
any other material litigation nor, to the Companys knowledge, is any other litigation threatened against the Company, other than routine actions for negligence or other claims and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of
business, some of which are expected to be covered by liability insurance and all of which collectively are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations or business or financial condition of the Company.



10. Shareholders Equity



Stock Purchase Rights



In connection with the acquisition of the initial hotels, the Company granted
1,280,569 rights to purchase common shares of beneficial interest at the exercise price of $18.00 per share. The Company has recorded these rights in shareholders equity at their fair value on the date of grant. All rights had a one-year
vesting period and a 10-year term. In 2005, 2004 and 2003, 198,000, 921,583 and zero, respectively, stock purchase rights were exercised. At December 31, 2005, there were 160,986 exercisable rights remaining.

In connection
with the Westin Copley Place acquisition, on August 24, 2005, the Company designated 2,450,000 shares of the authorized but unissued preferred shares as 7.25% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares (the Series C Preferred Shares), par
value $0.01 per share (liquidation preference of $25.00 per share). These shares were authorized in conjunction with the issuance of 2,348,888 7.25% Series C Preferred Units to facilitate the redemption of 7.25% Series C Preferred Units. As of
December 31, 2005, there were no Series C Preferred Shares outstanding.



The Series A Preferred Shares, Series B Preferred Shares, Series C Preferred Shares, and Series D Preferred Shares (collectively, the Preferred Shares) rank senior to the common shares of beneficial interest and on
parity with each other with respect to payment of distributions; the Company will not pay any distributions, or set aside any funds for the payment of distributions, on its common shares of beneficial interest unless it has also paid (or set aside
for payment) the full cumulative distributions on the Preferred Shares for the current and all past dividend periods. The outstanding Preferred Shares do not have any maturity date, and are not subject to mandatory redemption. Difference between the
carrying value and the redemption amount of the Preferred Shares are the offering costs. In addition, the Company is not required to set aside funds to redeem the Preferred Shares. The Company may not optionally redeem the Series A Preferred Shares,
Series B Preferred Shares or Series D Preferred Shares prior to March 6, 2007, September 30, 2008 and August 24, 2010, respectively, except in limited circumstances relating to the Companys continuing qualification as a
REIT. The Company may not optionally redeem the Series C Preferred Shares prior to January 1, 2021 except in limited circumstances relating to the Companys continuing qualification as a REIT and during the period from January 1, 2016
to and including December 31, 2016 upon giving notice as specified. After those dates, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Preferred Shares, in whole or from time to time in part, by payment of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated,
accrued and unpaid distributions to and including the date of redemption. Accordingly, the Preferred Shares will remain outstanding indefinitely unless the Company decides to redeem them.



Common Operating Partnership Units



The outstanding units of limited partnership interest are redeemable for cash, or at the option of the Company, for a like
number of common shares of beneficial interest of the Company.



On September 17, 2004, 41,596 units of limited partnership interest were converted to common shares. On May 10, 2005, 80,000 units of limited partnership interest were converted to common shares. On both July 8, 2005 and
July 29, 2005, 80,000 (for a total of 160,000 units) common units of limited partnership interest were converted to common shares.

preferred units in LaSalle Hotel Operating Partnership net of original issuance costs of $402.



11. Share Option and Incentive Plan



In April 1998, the Board of Trustees adopted and the then current shareholders approved the 1998 share option and incentive plan that is currently administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees.
The Companys employees and the hotel operators and their employees generally are eligible to participate in the 1998 share option and incentive plan.



The 1998 share option and incentive plan authorizes, among other things: (i) the grant of share options that qualify as incentive options under the
Code, (ii) the grant of share options that do not so qualify, (iii) the grant of share options in lieu of cash trustees fees, (iv) grants of common shares of beneficial interest in lieu of cash compensation, and (v) the
making of loans to acquire common shares of beneficial interest in lieu of compensation. The exercise price of share options is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees, but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value
of the common shares of beneficial interest on the date of grant. Options under the plan vest over a period determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees, which is generally a three-year period. The duration of each option is
also determined by the Compensation Committee; however, the duration of each option shall not exceed 10 years from date of grant.



On April 21, 2005, the common shareholders approved an amendment to the 1998 share option and incentive plan, increasing the number of common shares
of beneficial interest authorized for issuance under the 1998 share option and incentive plan from 1,900,000 to 2,800,000. Accordingly, at December 31, 2005 and 2004, 2,800,000 and 1,900,000 shares, respectively, were authorized for issuance
under the 1998 share option and incentive plan. At December 31, 2005, there were 1,081,531 common shares available for future grant under the 1998 share option and incentive plan.



From time to time, the Company awards restricted stock shares under the 1998 Share Option and Incentive Plan to members of
the Board of Trustees, executives, and employees. The restricted shares generally vest over three or four years based on continued employment. The Company measures compensation cost for the restricted shares based upon the fair market value of its
common stock at the date of grant. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period and is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company granted
79,242, 9,465, and 134,436 shares in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, to members of the Board of Trustees, executives, and employees. In 2005, 2004, and 2003 there were 3,162, 3,466 and zero, respectively, forfeitures of restricted stock. The
Company recorded $1,262, $1,259, and $940 of compensation expense related to the restricted stock grants in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.



The Company issues common shares of beneficial interest to the independent members of the Board of Trustees for at least half of their compensation in
lieu of cash. The Trustees may elect to receive the remaining half in cash or additional common shares. A portion of the shares issued may be deferred. These common shares

are issued under the 1998 Share Option and Incentive Plan. The Company issued an aggregate of 10,680, 5,255, and 6,761 shares, including 4,798, 4,241, and
5,448 deferred shares, related to the Trustees compensation for the years 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

|Dividend yield          |  | n/a  |  | n/a  |  | 10.40 | %    



12. Financial Instruments:
Derivatives and Hedging



The Company employs interest rate
swaps to hedge against interest rate fluctuations. Unrealized gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive income with no effect recognized in earnings as long as the characteristics of the swap and the hedged item are closely matched. On
February 27, 2004, the Company entered into a three-year fixed interest rate swap that fixes the London Interbank offered rate at 2.56% for $57,000 of the Companys mortgage loan secured by the Indianapolis hotel and therefore fixes the
mortgage rate at 3.56%. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, there was $1,353 and $965, respectively, in unrealized gain included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The hedge was effective in offsetting the variable cash flows; therefore
no gain or loss was realized during the year ended December 31, 2005 or 2004.



The following table summarizes the notional value and fair value of the Companys derivative financial instrument. The notional value at December 31, 2005 provides an indication of the extent of the
Companys involvement in these instruments at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks.

At December 31, 2005:



|               |  |                |  |               |  |          |  |           
|-------------- |  | -------------- |  | ------------- |  | -------- |  | ----------
|Hedge Type     |  | Notional Value |  | Interest Rate |  | Maturity |  | Fair Value
|Swap-Cash Flow |  | $57,000        |  | 2.555%        |  | 2/9/07   |  | $1,353    



At December 31,
2005, the derivative instrument was reported at its fair value of $1,353 and is included within prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



Interest rate hedges that are designated as cash flow hedges hedge the future cash outflows on debt. Interest rate swaps
that convert variable payments to fixed payments, interest rate caps, floors, collars, and forwards are cash flow hedges. The unrealized gains/losses in the fair value of these hedges are reported on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment
to either accumulated other comprehensive income/loss or in earnings depending on the type of hedging relationship. If the hedging transaction is a cash flow hedge, then the offsetting gains and losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive
income/loss. Over time, the unrealized gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/loss will be reclassified to earnings. This reclassification is consistent with when the hedged items are also recognized in earnings. For the
year ended December 31, 2005, the Company reclassified $444 of accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings as a reduction of interest expense. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company reclassified $504 of accumulated other
comprehensive income to earnings as interest expense.



The
Company hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for transactions it anticipates entering into in the foreseeable future. During the forecast period, unrealized gains and losses in the hedging instrument will be reported in
accumulated other comprehensive income/loss. Once the hedged transaction takes place, the hedge gains and losses will be reported in earnings during the same period in which the hedged item is recognized in earnings.



13. Participating Leases



The participating leases have non-cancelable terms ranging from five to 11 years (from commencement), subject to earlier
termination upon the occurrence of certain contingencies, as defined. Each participating lease requires the applicable lessee to pay the greater of (i) base rent in a fixed amount or (ii) participating rent based on certain percentages of
room revenue, food and beverage revenue and telephone and other revenue at the applicable hotel. Participating rent applicable to room and other hotel revenues varies by lease and is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by the total amounts
of such revenues over specified quarterly threshold amounts. Both the base rent and the participating rent thresholds used in computing percentage rents applicable to room and other hotel revenues, including food and beverage revenues, are subject
to annual adjustments based on increases in the United States Consumer Price Index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States of America Department of Labor, U.S. City Average, Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers.
Participating lease revenues from non-LHL leased properties, for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $21,527, $18,635, and $21,284, of which $9,886, $7,376 and $8,578, respectively, was in excess of base rent. Rent from
properties leased to LHL, a wholly-owned subsidiary, is eliminated in consolidation.



Future minimum rentals from non-LHL leased properties (without reflecting future applicable Consumer Price Index increases) to be received by the Company pursuant to the participating leases for each of the years in
the period 2006 to 2009 are as follows.



|     |  |   |       
|---- |  | - | ------
|2006 |  | $ | 12,060
|2007 |  |   | 12,060

15. Income Taxes



The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To
qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income to its shareholders. It is the Companys current
intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Companys qualification for taxation as a REIT. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax on that portion of its net income that is currently
distributed to shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to
qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its
undistributed taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through taxable REIT subsidiaries is subject to federal, state and local income taxes. LHL is a wholly-owned taxable-REIT subsidiary of the Company and as
such is required to pay income taxes at the applicable rates.



The following is a reconciliation between the GAAP net income and taxable income for the REIT for the years ended December 31, 2005 (estimated), 2004 and 2003:

For the year ended
December 31, 2005, LHL recorded an income tax benefit of $3,611 that is included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company has estimated its income tax benefit using a combined federal and state rate of 41.5%. As of
December 31, 2005, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $18,176 primarily due to past and current years tax net operating losses. These loss carryforwards will expire in 2021 thru 2025 if not utilized by then. Management believes that
it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset and has determined that no valuation allowance is required. Reversal of deferred tax asset in the subsequent
year cannot be reasonably estimated.

16. Earnings Per Common Share



The limited partners outstanding limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership (which may be converted to
common shares of beneficial interest) have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as there would be no effect on the amounts since the limited partners share of income would also be added back to net income. The
computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is presented below:

21. Quarterly Operating Results (Unaudited)



The Companys unaudited consolidated quarterly
operating data for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands, except per share data) follows. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of quarterly
results have been reflected in the data. It is also managements opinion, however, that quarterly operating data for hotel enterprises are not indicative of results to be achieved in succeeding quarters or years.
