     Section 2.2. Application of Payments.

               (a) Each and every payment (a “Payment”) made by Borrower to Lender in accordance with
the terms of this Note and/or the terms of any one or more of the other Loan Documents and all
other proceeds received by Lender with respect to the Debt, shall be applied as follows:

               (1) Payments, other than Unscheduled Payments, shall be applied (i) first, to all Late
Charges, Default Rate Interest or other premiums and other sums payable hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents (other than those sums included in clauses (ii) and (iii) of this
Section 2.2(a)(1)) in such order and priority as determined by Lender in its sole discretion

               (2) Unscheduled Payments shall be applied at the end of the Interest Accrual Period in
which such Unscheduled Payments are received as a principal prepayment of the Loan Amount to
amortize the Loan Amount.

               (b) To the extent that Borrower makes a Payment or Lender receives any Payment or proceeds for
Borrower’s benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any
other party representing the estate of Borrower under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable
cause, then, to such extent, the obligations of Borrower hereunder

2

 

intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such Payment or proceeds had not
been received by Lender.

     Section 2.3. Prepayments.

     The Debt may not be prepaid, in whole or in part, except as set forth in Section 13.03 and
Article XV of the Security Instrument.

SECTION 3. DEFAULTS

     Section 3.1. Events of Default.

     This Note is secured by, among other things, the Security Instrument which specifies various
Events of Default, upon the happening of which all or portions of the sums owing under this Note
may be declared immediately due and payable as more specifically provided therein. Each Event of
Default under the Security Instrument or any one or more of the other Loan Documents shall be an
Event of Default hereunder.

     Section 3.2. Remedies.

     If an Event of Default shall occur hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the Principal
Amount and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all accrued but unpaid interest on the
Principal Amount shall, commencing on the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default, at the
option of Lender, immediately and without notice to Borrower, accrue interest at the Default Rate
until such Event of Default is cured or if not cured or such cure is not accepted by Lender, until
the repayment of the Debt. The foregoing provision shall not be construed as a waiver by Lender of
its right to pursue any other remedies available to it under the Security Instrument, or any other
Loan Document, nor shall it be construed to limit in any way the application of the Default Rate.

SECTION 4.EXCULPATION

     Section 4.1. Exculpation.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Loan Documents,
the obligations of Borrower hereunder shall be non-recourse except with respect to the Property,
and as otherwise provided in Section 18.32 of the Security Instrument, the terms of which are
incorporated herein.

SECTION 5. MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 5.1. Further Assurances.

     Borrower shall execute and acknowledge (or cause to be executed and acknowledged) and deliver
to Lender all documents, and take all actions, reasonably required by Lender from time to time (i)
to confirm the rights created or now or hereafter intended to be created under this Note and the
other Loan Documents, (ii) to protect and further the validity, priority and enforceability of this
Note and the other Loan Documents, (iii) to subject to the Loan Documents any property of Borrower
intended by the terms of any one or more of the Loan Documents to be encumbered by the Loan
Documents, or (iv) to otherwise carry out the purposes of the Loan

3

 

Documents and the transactions contemplated thereunder; provided, however,
that no such further actions, assurances and confirmations shall increase Borrower’s obligations
under this Note or any other Loan Documents.

     Section 5.2. Modification, Waiver in Writing.

     No modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver (a
“Modification”) of any provision of this Note, the Security Instrument or any one or more
of the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event
be effective unless the same shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is
sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance, and for
the purpose, for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no notice to, or
demand on, Borrower shall entitle Borrower to any other or future notice or demand in the same,
similar or other circumstances. Lender does not hereby agree to, nor does Lender hereby commit
itself to, enter into any Modification. However, in the event Lender does ever agree to a
Modification, such Modification shall only be upon the terms and conditions set forth in the
Security Instrument.

     Section 5.3. Costs of Collection.

     Borrower agrees to pay all costs and expenses of collection incurred by Lender, in addition to
principal, interest and late or delinquency charges (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and including all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
the pursuit by Lender of any of its rights or remedies referred to in Section 3 hereof or its
rights or remedies referred to in any of the Loan Documents or the protection of or realization of
collateral or in connection with any of Lender’s collection efforts, whether or not suit on this
Note, on any of the other Loan Documents or any foreclosure proceeding is filed, and all such costs
and expenses shall be payable on demand, together with interest at the Default Rate thereon, and
also shall be secured by the Security Instrument and all other collateral at any time held by
Lender as security for Borrower’s obligations to Lender.

     Section 5.4. Maximum Amount.

               (a) It is the intention of Borrower and Lender to conform strictly to the usury and similar
laws relating to interest and the collection of other charges from time to time in force, and all
agreements between Borrower and Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral
or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by
acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the
aggregate to Lender as interest or other charges hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or in
any other security agreement given to secure the Debt, or in any other document evidencing,
securing or pertaining to the Debt, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or
such other laws (the “Maximum Amount”). If under any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment
of any provision hereof, or any of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such
provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the Maximum Amount, then ipso
facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Amount. For the
purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest or other charges paid and/or payable
hereunder, in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all charges and other sums
paid or agreed to be paid hereunder to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of
the Debt, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted

4

 

by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement
of the proceeds of this Note until payment in full of all of the Debt, so that the actual rate of
interest on account of the Debt is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of
this Section 5.4 shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between
Borrower or any endorser and Lender.

               (b) If under any circumstances Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the
Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the Loan Amount owing
hereunder and any other obligation of Borrower in favor of Lender, and shall be so applied in
accordance with Section 2.2 hereof (without any prepayment fee or other fee resulting from such
reduction of the Principal Amount), or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the
Loan Amount and any other obligation of Borrower in favor of Lender, the excess shall be deemed to
have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to Borrower.

     Section 5.5. Waivers.

     Borrower hereby expressly and unconditionally waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of
protest or notice of any kind, including, without limitation, any notice of intention to accelerate
and notice of acceleration, except as expressly provided herein and in the other Loan Documents,
and in connection with any suit, action or proceeding brought by Lender on this Note, any and every
right it may have to (a) to the extent permitted by applicable law, a trial by jury, (b) interpose
any counterclaim therein (other than a counterclaim which can only be asserted in the suit, action
or proceeding brought by Lender on this Note and cannot be maintained in a separate action), except
as set forth in the Loan Documents and (c) have the same consolidated with any other or separate
suit, action or proceeding, except as set forth in the Loan Documents.

     Section 5.6. Governing Law.

     This Note and the obligations arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the District of Columbia applicable to contracts made and performed in
such State and any applicable law of the United States of America.

     Section 5.7. Headings.

     The Section headings in this Note are included herein for convenience of reference only and
shall not constitute a part of this Note for any other purpose.

     Section 5.8. Assignment.

     Lender shall have the right to transfer, sell and assign this Note, the Security Instrument
and/or any of the other Loan Documents or any interest therein, and the obligations hereunder, to
any Person. All references to “Lender” hereunder shall be deemed to include the assigns of the
Lender.

     Section 5.9. Severability.

     Wherever possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited

5

 

by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining
provisions of this Note.

     Section 5.10. Joint and Several.

     If Borrower consists of more than one Person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each
such Person or party hereunder shall be joint and several.

or in connection with any act or omission occurring on or before the Effective Date (the “Retained
Obligations”), and that such obligations shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with
the terms and provisions thereof and hereof. Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents with
respect to the Retained Obligations shall not be discharged or reduced by any extension, amendment,
renewal or modification to, the Note, the Security Instrument or any other Loan Documents,
including, without limitation, changes to the terms of repayment thereof, modifications, extensions

any liability due to fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Noteholder. Each of
Borrower, Original Guarantor, Assumptor and New Guarantor, after consultation with its respective
attorney, hereby expressly waives the benefits of the provisions of applicable law, if any, which
provides to the effect that:

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not
know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release
which, if known by him, must have materially affected his settlement with
the debtor.”

From time to time without first requiring performance on the part of Assumptor,

          Borrower and Assumptor each hereby further represents and warrants to

that the parties have obtained all such consents.

     b. No Defaults. Assumptor and Borrower each hereby represents and warrants, to
its respective knowledge, that no default, event of default, breach or failure of condition
has occurred, or would exist with notice or the lapse of time or both, under any of the Loan

herein and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects.

     c. Loan Documents. Assumptor represents and warrants to Noteholder that
Assumptor has actual knowledge of all terms and conditions of the Loan Documents, and agrees

representations, agreements and warranties in the Loan Documents regarding Borrower (as
modified by this Assumption Agreement), its status, authority, financial condition and
business shall apply to Assumptor, as though Assumptor were the borrower originally named in
the Loan Documents. Assumptor further understands and acknowledges that, except as
expressly provided in this Assignment and Assumption Agreement or in any other writing
executed by Noteholder, Noteholder has not waived any right of Noteholder or obligation of
Borrower or Assumptor under the Loan

7

 

Documents and Noteholder has not agreed to any modification of any provision of any
Loan Document or to any extension of the Loan.

     d. Financial Statements. Assumptor represents and warrants to Noteholder that

material respects the financial condition of each of such parties; and (iii) have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied,
except as expressly noted therein, or other accounting standards approved by Noteholder.
Assumptor further represents and warrants to Noteholder that, since the date of such
financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition
of any of such parties, nor have any assets or properties reflected on such financial
statements been sold, transferred, assigned, mortgaged, pledged or encumbered except as
previously disclosed in writing by Assumptor to Noteholder and approved in writing by
Noteholder or disclosed in public filings prior to the Effective Date.

     e. Reports. Assumptor represents and warrants to Noteholder that all reports,
documents, instruments and information (other than information of a general economic or
industry nature) that Assumptor has delivered to Noteholder in connection with Assumptor’s
assumption of the Loan: (i) are correct and sufficiently complete to give Noteholder
accurate knowledge of their subject matter; and (ii) do not contain any misrepresentation of
a material fact or omission of a material fact which omission makes the provided information
misleading omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they are made, not materially misleading; provided
that, with respect to projected financial information, Assumptor represents and warrants
only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be
reasonable at the time.

     f. Assumptor Location. Assumptor represents and warrants that its chief
executive office is located at the following address: c/o Pebblebrook Hotel Trust, 2

     h. No Pledge of Equity Interests. Assumptor and New Guarantor represent and
warrant to Noteholder that the equity interests in (i) Assumptor or (ii) any entity that,
directly or indirectly, owns an equity interest in Assumptor have not been pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise encumbered as security for any obligation, and that no portion of
the capital contributed to Assumptor, directly or indirectly, in connection with Assumptor’s
acquisition of the Property consists of borrowed funds.

8

 

     i. Embargoed Person. Assumptor and New Guarantor represent and warrant that
none of the funds or other assets of Assumptor or New Guarantor constitute property of, or
are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any person, entity or government subject
to trade restrictions under U.S. law, including but not limited to, the USA PATRIOT Act
(including the anti-terrorism provisions thereof), the International Economic Powers Act, 50
U.S.C. §§ 1701, et. seq., the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et. seq., and any
Executive Orders or regulations promulgated thereunder, including those related to Specially

further warrant and represent that no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature
whatsoever in Assumptor or New Guarantor with the result that the investment in Assumptor
(whether directly or indirectly) is prohibited by law.

     9. Waiver of Acceleration. Noteholder hereby consents to the sale and conveyance of
the Property and Collateral and agrees that it shall not exercise its right to cause all sums
secured by the Security Instrument to become immediately due and payable because of the conveyance
of the Property and the Collateral from Borrower to Assumptor; provided, however,
Noteholder reserves its right under the terms of the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document
to accelerate all principal and interest in the event of any subsequent sale, transfer, encumbrance
or other conveyance of the Property, the Collateral or any interest in Assumptor, except as
permitted by the Loan Documents.

     g. The definition of “Transfer” on pages 22-24 of the Security Instrument is

     h. The following is hereby added at the end of the definition of “Transfer” on
pages 22-24 of the Security Instrument:

     “Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or
in any other Loan Documents, the issuance, sale, conveyance, transfer or other
disposition (the “REIT Transfer”) of any shares of stock (the “REIT
Shares”) in Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (the “REIT”) shall be permitted
without Lender’s prior written consent, provided that (i) the REIT Shares are
publicly traded on a nationally recognized U. S. Stock Exchange; (ii) no Person or
group (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations
thereunder) shall have acquired beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of a percentage (based on voting power, in the event
different classes of stock shall have different voting powers) of the voting stock
of the REIT greater than forty nine percent (49%); and (iii) the REIT Transfer does
not result in or cause: (A) Borrower no longer being the owner of the Property; (B)
Operating Lessee no longer being the tenant under the Operating Lease; (C) the REIT
no longer being the sole general partner and in Control of Guarantor and the owner
of at least 51% of the limited partnership interests in the Guarantor; (D) the

Control over both DC Hotel Trust (the “Baby REIT”) and Pebblebrook Hotel
Lessee, Inc. (the “TRS”); (E) the Baby REIT no longer being the sole member
of and in Control of Borrower; (F) TRS no longer being the sole member of and in
Control of Operating Lessee; (G) Guarantor no longer being the guarantor under the
Loan Documents; or (H) a REIT Change of Control (as defined below).

10

 

     For purposes of this Section, a “REIT Change of Control” shall occur
when: (i) one Person or group of affiliated Persons acquires more than 49% of the
REIT Shares in one or a series of transactions, (ii) during the twelve (12) month
period immediately prior to the REIT Transfer, individuals who at the beginning of
such period constituted the Board of Directors or Trustees of the REIT (the
“Board”) (together with any new directors whose election by the Board or
whose nomination for election by the shareholders of the REIT was approved by a vote
of at least a majority of the members of the Board then in office who either were
members of the Board at the beginning of such period or whose election or nomination
for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute a
majority of the members of the Board as of the date of completion of the REIT
Transfer, or (iii) if the REIT enters into a merger, consolidation or other business
combination, or a sale of all or substantially all of the REIT’s assets and/or
ownership interests which results in Borrower, Operating Lessee and/or Guarantor no
longer being controlled, directly or indirectly, by the REIT.”

     i. The following language is hereby deleted from the end of the first sentence of
Section 2.02(g) (iv) on page 27 of the Security Instrument: “...have filed and will
file their own tax returns or, if Borrower and/or, if applicable, General Partner is part of
a consolidated group for purposes of filing tax returns, Borrower and General Partner, as
applicable, have been shown and will be shown as separate members of such group.”

     j. Section 2.02(g)(vii) on page 27 of the Security Instrument is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety as follows: “Borrower and, if applicable, each General
Partner, have been at all times, and intend to remain, adequately capitalized in light of
the nature of their respective businesses.”

     k. The reference to “California limited partnership” in Section 2.02(g)(xi) on
page 28 of the Security Instrument is modified to refer to “Delaware limited liability
company”.

     l. The following is hereby added as Section 2.05(y) of the Security Instrument:

     “(y) Operating Lease.

     (i) Borrower shall (A) promptly perform and observe all of the material
covenants required to be performed and observed by it under the Operating Lease and

thereunder; (B) promptly notify Lender of any material default under the Operating
Lease; (C) promptly deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default or other
material notice under the Operating Lease delivered to Operating Lessee by

or (C) enter into, renew, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, reduce Rents under
or shorten the term of the Operating Lease except in the case of clauses (B) and (C)

adverse to the Noteholder.

     m. Assumptor acknowledges and agrees that the annual, quarterly and other financial
statements and reports required or otherwise requested by Noteholder under Section
2.09 of the Security Instrument shall include statements and reports of Operating Lessee
as applicable.

     n. The seventh and eighth sentences in Section 5.01 shall be amended and
restated in their entirety as follows:

“Additionally, Borrower shall cause Operating Lessee or Manager to
send each respective credit card company or credit card clearing
bank with which Operating Lessee or Manager has entered into
merchant’s agreements (each, a “Credit Card Company”) a direction
letter in the form of Exhibit F annexed hereto and made part hereof
(the “Credit Card Payment Direction Letter”) directing such Credit
Card Company to make all payments due in connection with goods or
services furnished at or in connection with the Property by Federal
wire or through ACH directly to a bank account established by the
Operating Lessee (the “Operating Lessee Rent Account”). Without the
prior written consent of Lender, Borrower shall not permit Operating
Lessee or Manager to (i) terminate, amend, revoke or modify any
Credit Card Payment Direction Letter in any manner or (ii) direct or
cause any Credit Card Company to pay any amount in any manner other
than as specifically provided in the related Credit Card Payment
Direction Letter.”

     o. The definition of “Management Agreement” in Section 7.02(e) on page
77 of the Security Instrument is hereby modified to include that certain Assignment of and
First Amendment to Hotel Operating Agreement being executed by Operating Lessee and Manager
in connection with this assumption.

     p. Assumptor shall cause Operating Lessee to comply in all material respects with all

12

 

     q. Sections 13.01 (d), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j), (l) and (n) of the Security
Instrument are hereby modified to include acts and omissions of the Operating Lessee to the
same extent as acts and omissions of the Assumptor and/or New Guarantor, as applicable

in full force and effect.

     11. Net Worth Representation of New Guarantor. As of the Effective Date, New
Guarantor represents and warrants to Noteholder that New Guarantor has a Tangible Net Worth of not
less than $300,000,000. For purposes of this Section 11, “Tangible Net Worth” means the
sum of (a) consolidated partnership’s equity of the New Guarantor and its subsidiaries, plus (b)
accumulated depreciation with respect to real assets (to the extent deducted in determining
partnerships’ equity), less (c) the value of all intangible assets of New Guarantor and its
consolidated subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (to the extent included in determining
partnerships’ equity), in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP.

     12. Hazardous Materials. Without in any way limiting any other provision of this
Assumption Agreement, Assumptor and Borrower expressly reaffirm as of the date hereof, and
Assumptor reaffirms continuing hereafter: (a) each and every representation and warranty in the
Loan Documents respecting “Hazardous Materials”; and (b) each and every covenant and indemnity in
the Loan Documents respecting “Hazardous Materials”.

     13. Multiple Parties. If more than one person or entity has signed this Assumption
Agreement as Assumptor or Borrower, then all references in this Assumption Agreement to Assumptor
or Borrower shall mean each and all of the persons so signing, as applicable. The liability of all

     16. Integration; Interpretation. The Loan Documents, including this Assumption
Agreement, contain or expressly incorporate by reference the entire agreement of the parties with

any parts of the Property or the Collateral.

to the benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties but subject to all prohibitions
of transfers contained in any Loan Document.

     18. Attorneys’ Fees; Enforcement. If any attorney is engaged by Noteholder to
enforce, construe or defend any provision of this Assumption Agreement, or as a consequence of any
default under or breach of this Assumption Agreement, with or without the filing of any legal
action or proceeding, Assumptor shall pay to Noteholder, within 15 days after written demand, the
amount of all attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred by Noteholder in connection therewith,
together with interest thereon from the date that is15 days after the date of such demand at the
rate of interest applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein.

     19. Right of Transfer of Property. The parties acknowledge that Section 9.04
of the Security Instrument provides that Noteholder shall consent to the voluntary sale or
exchange of all of the Property, all subject, however, to the terms and conditions set forth
therein. The parties agree that this Assumption Agreement and the actions to be taken as
contemplated herein shall constitute one such consent.

     20. Deferred Maintenance; Liquor License. Assumptor covenants and agrees that it
will, within 60 days of the Effective Date, provide Noteholder with satisfactory evidence that (a)
the short term repair items listed on Exhibit D of the Security Instrument have been

necessary; and (c) that Assumptor has obtained a permanent liquor license for the Property.

time-frame, that an immediate Event of Default shall have occurred, and that Noteholder shall have
all remedies available to it under the terms of the Loan Documents, including but not limited to
the immediate right to accrue interest on the Loan at the Default Interest Rate.

     21. Miscellaneous.

     a. This Assumption Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the
laws of the jurisdiction(s) specified in the other Loan Documents as governing the other
Loan Documents. In any action brought or arising out of this Assumption Agreement,
Borrower, Original Guarantor, New Guarantor, Noteholder and Assumptor, and general partners,
members and joint venturers of them, hereby consent to the jurisdiction of any state or

to the service of process by any means authorized by the law of such jurisdiction(s).
Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, all terms

14

 

used herein shall have the meaning given to them in the Loan Documents. Time is of the
essence of each term of the Loan Documents, including this Assumption Agreement. If any
provision of this Assumption Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
that portion shall be deemed severed therefrom and the remaining parts shall remain in full
force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable portion had not been a part thereof.

     b. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement is subject to the
provisions of Section 4 of the Note and Section 18.32 of the Security
Instrument as if such provisions were set forth at length herein.

     22. Counterparts. This Assumption Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered will be deemed an original and all of which
taken together will be deemed to be one and the same instrument.
