Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of financial statement presentation

In this report Orient-Express Hotels Ltd. is referred to as the “Company”, and the Company and its subsidiaries are referred to collectively as “OEH”.

“FASB” means Financial Accounting Standards Board and “APB” means Accounting Principles Board, the FASB’s predecessor. “SFAS” means Statement of Financial Accounting Standards of the FASB, and “FIN,” “EITF” or “FSP” means an accounting interpretation of the FASB.

(a) Accounting policies

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, operating results and cash flows have been included in the statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s periodic filings, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in the 2008 Form 10-K for additional information regarding significant accounting policies.

The accounting policies used in preparing these financial statements are the same as those applied in the prior year, except for the implementation of SFAS No. 161, SFAS No. 160, SFAS No. 141(R), FSP FAS 142-3, and SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities as deferred by FSP FAS 157-2, effective January 1, 2009, and SFAS No. 165, FSP FAS 157-4, and FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, effective June 15, 2009.

SFAS No. 161

SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 133

with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about the fair value of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments. OEH has implemented the standard by adding the required disclosures.

As required by SFAS No. 133, OEH records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether OEH has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecast transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged forecast transactions in a cash flow hedge. OEH may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or OEH elects not to apply hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133.

SFAS No. 160

Effective January 1, 2009, OEH has implemented SFAS No. 160, “Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51”. Non-controlling interests have been classified as a component of equity for all periods presented and the statements of consolidated equity have been amended accordingly. No further disclosures have been made as the impact on the statements of consolidated operations from the non-controlling interests is not deemed material.

SFAS No. 165

Effective June 15, 2009, OEH has implemented SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”. The date through which subsequent events have been evaluated has been disclosed (see Note 19).

SFAS No. 141(R), FSP FAS 142-3 and SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, FSP FAS 157-4, and FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1.

The implementation of SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations,” FSP FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets,” and SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly,” and FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” has not resulted in any material impact to the financial statements as of June 30, 2009 and for the six months then ended.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In addition, OEH is considering SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — A Replacement of SFAS No. 162”, which was issued in June 2009. The statement establishes the codification as the source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards recognized by the FASB for use in the preparation of financial statements and revises the framework for selecting the accounting principles to be used. It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” which changes how a reporting company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting should be consolidated. The standard will require a number of new disclosures about a reporting company’s involvement with variable interest entities, any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement and how that involvement affects the reporting company’s financial statements. SFAS No. 167 is effective from January 1, 2010. OEH is in the process of determining the effects of the adaptation of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

(b) Net earnings per share

The number of shares used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share was as follows (in thousands):

Three months ended June 30,	2009	2008

Basic	67,167	42,470
Effect of dilution	—	138
Diluted	67,167	42,608

Six months ended June 30,	2009	2008

Basic	59,019	42,468
Effect of dilution	—	150
Diluted	59,019	42,618

For the three months ended June 30, 2009 and the six months ended June 30, 2009, all share options and share-based awards were excluded from the calculation of the diluted weighted average number of shares because OEH made a net loss in both periods and the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended June 30, 2008 and the six months ended June 30, 2008, the effect of anti-dilutive share options and share-based awards has been excluded from the calculation of the diluted weighted average number of shares.

The average number of share options and share-based awards excluded was as follows:

Three months ended June 30,	2009	2008

Share options	1,147,948	562,742
Share-based awards	504,709	59,365
	1,652,657	622,107

Six months ended June 30,	2009	2008

Share options	1,072,369	564,820
Share-based awards	377,400	59,303
	1,449,769	624,123

The number of stock options and share-based awards at June 30, 2009 was 2,145,411 (June 30, 2008 – 641,415).

(c) Earnings from unconsolidated companies

Earnings from unconsolidated companies include OEH’s share of the net earnings of its equity investments as well as interest income related to loans and advances to the equity investees. This interest income amounted to $nil and $3,000,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $nil and $6,004,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. See Note 3 regarding consolidation of Charleston Center LLC effective December 31, 2008.

2. Discontinued operations

(a) Lapa Palace Hotel sale

On June 2, 2009, OEH sold its shares in the Lapa Palace Hotel owning company in Lisbon, Portugal for a cash consideration of $41,983,000. Of that consideration $26,287,000 has been received in cash on the date of sale and remaining $15,696,000 has been deferred until 2010 and is secured by a Portuguese bank guarantee. The disposal resulted in a gain on sale of $5,043,000.

The following is a summary of the net assets sold and gain on sale (dollars in thousands):

	June 2, 2009

Cash	$	1,303
Property, plant and equipment, net	43,333
Net working capital deficit	(281		)

(b) Assets held for sale: Windsor Court Hotel and Bora Bora Lagoon Resort

During the fourth quarter of 2007, OEH decided to sell its investment in Bora Bora Lagoon Resort. The asset is being actively marketed and is expected to be disposed of within a year. During the second quarter of 2009, OEH decided to sell Windsor Court Hotel and entered into a sale agreement in July 2009.

The hotels have been classified as held for sale and their results have been presented as discontinued operations for all the interim periods presented.

At June 30, 2009, an impairment loss of $21,549,000 was recognized on the re-measurement of Windsor Court Hotel which reduced the carrying amount of the hotel assets to fair value less costs to sell, offset by a related tax credit of $7,146,000. Also at June 30, 2009, an additional impairment loss of $12,000,000 was recognized for Bora Bora Lagoon Resort tangible assets to reflect the level of offers being received on the hotel.

3. Consolidation of variable interest entity — Charleston Place Hotel

OEH holds a 19.9% equity investment in Charleston Center LLC, owner of Charleston Place Hotel. It has also made a number of loans to the hotel. On evaluating its various variable interests in the hotel at December 31, 2008, OEH concluded that the hotel no longer qualified for certain scope exemptions under FIN 46(R), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, because OEH’s share of loans provided to the hotel had increased and OEH provided a majority of subordinated financial support. OEH further concluded that OEH is the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity as defined in FIN 46(R) because it is expected to absorb a majority of the entity’s residual gains or losses based on the current organizational structure. OEH has consolidated the entity effective December 31, 2008. Previously the entity had been accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

The results of operations of Charleston Place Hotel have been included in the consolidated financial statements of OEH from January 1, 2009 and, accordingly, any intercompany transactions have been eliminated from that date forward.

The assets and liabilities of Charleston Center LLC that were consolidated into the financial statements at their fair value as at December 31, 2008 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	December 31, 2008
Current assets	$	4,937
Property, plant and equipment	196,650
Other assets	1,824
Goodwill	40,395

Third party debt	79,626
Deferred income taxes	64,100
Other liabilities	12,306
Total liabilities before amounts payable to OEH of $97,000	$	161,405

The third-party debt of Charleston Center LLC is non-recourse to its members, including OEH, and the hotel’s separate assets and liabilities are not available to pay the debts of OEH and do not constitute obligations of OEH.

4. Property, plant and equipment

The major classes of property, plant and equipment are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2009			December 31, 2008
Land and buildings	$	1,245,887		$	1,200,909

5. Goodwill

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2009 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Hotels & Restaurants			Trains & Cruises		Total
Balance as of January 1, 2009	$	146,381		$	7,673	$	154,054
Goodwill impairment (from continuing operations)	(6,835		)	—		(6,835		)
Foreign currency translation adjustment	(643		)	347		(296		)
Balance as at June 30, 2009	$	138,903		$	8,020	$	146,923

OEH’s goodwill impairment testing is performed in two steps, first, the determination of impairment based upon the fair value of each reporting unit as compared with its carrying value and, second, if there is an implied impairment, the measurement of the amount of the impairment loss is determined by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying value of the goodwill. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the goodwill is deemed to be impaired and is written down to the extent of the difference.

The determination of impairment incorporates various assumptions and uncertainties that OEH believes are reasonable and supportable considering all available evidence, such as the future cash flows of the business, future growth rates and the related discount rate. However, these assumptions and uncertainties are, by their very nature, highly judgmental. If the assumptions are not met, OEH may be required to recognize additional goodwill impairment losses.

During the first quarter of 2009, OEH completed its 2008 impairment analysis and identified a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $6,835,000 in addition to the estimated impairment loss included in its annual December 31, 2008 results, as follows (dollars in thousands):

Miraflores Park	$	3,208
Casa de Sierra Nevada	2,805
Observatory Hotel	274
Lilianfels Blue Mountain	548
	$	6,835

In addition, an impairment charge of $213,000 was made in respect of tradenames owned by the Casa de Sierra Nevada, bringing the total impairment charge to $7,048,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2009.

This debt is non-recourse to OEH, and the separate assets and liabilities of Charleston Place Hotel are not available to pay the debts of OEH and do not constitute obligations of OEH.

Of the current portion of long-term debt $112,163,000 (December 31, 2008 - $105,373,000) related to revolving credit facilities which, although falling due within 12 months, are available for re-borrowing throughout the period of the loan facilities which are repayable in 2011 and 2012.

Certain credit agreements of OEH have restrictive covenants. At June 30, 2009, OEH was in compliance with all major covenants that applied to OEH, including a minimum consolidated net worth test and a minimum consolidated interest coverage test as defined under OEH’s largest bank-syndicated loan facility. OEH does not currently have any covenants in its loan agreements which limit the payment of dividends.

The following is a summary of the aggregate maturities of long-term debt, including obligations under capital lease, at June 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

2012	92,672
2013	16,223

In April 2009, OEH closed a $30,000,000 secured construction loan for its Porto Cupecoy residential mixed-use development project on the Dutch side of St Martin, French West Indies. OEH has drawn $5,200,000 of this loan and has access to a further $12,700,000 immediately to fund future expenditure on the project, and may borrow additional amounts as additional new unit sales at Porto Cupecoy are made.

8. Other liabilities

Other liabilities are $1,491,000 of deferred consideration on acquisition of land next to Maroma Resort and Spa after discounting to present value, $1,837,000 of deferred income relating to guarantees given by OEH in connection with bank loans entered into by the Peruvian hotel joint nature operation (see Note 18), $3,434,000 in respect of interest rate swaps (see Note 17) and $12,640,000 of long-term accrued interest at Charleston Place Hotel.

9. Income taxes

The Company is incorporated in Bermuda, which does not impose an income tax. OEH’s effective tax rate is entirely due to the income taxes imposed by jurisdictions in which OEH conducts business other than Bermuda.

OEH recorded a tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2009 of $10,296,000, compared to a provision of $9,722,000 for the corresponding period in 2008. OEH’s current tax charge for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $4,881,000, compared to a charge of $2,806,000 in 2008. Cumulatively, OEH recorded a tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2009 of $919,000, compared to a provision of $6,165,000 for the corresponding period in 2008. OEH’s current tax charge for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $7,709,000, compared to a charge of $5,067,000 in 2008.

The June 30, 2009 provision for income taxes includes a current tax charge of $2,249,000 and a deferred tax charge of $3,221,000 arising in Italy in connection with the closure of a tax audit in respect of the 2004, 2005 and 2006 tax years. OEH had previously included a liability of $4,960,000 within its provision under FIN 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty of Income Taxes”, in respect of these uncertain tax positions. The provision for income taxes in the three months ended June 30, 2009 includes a tax credit in the amount of $4,960,000 to release this FIN 48 provision. The net charge to OEH taking

into account all of these entries is $510,000. The $2,249,000 current tax liability is payable in 12 quarterly instalments of approximately $187,000 each, commencing in July 2009.

OEH’s tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2009 included a net tax benefit of $4,514,000 (2008 - $522,000) in respect of a reduction in the provision under FIN 48, of which $212,000 (2008 - $445,000) relates to interest and penalty costs associated with the uncertain tax positions. OEH’s tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2009 included a net tax benefit of $4,383,000 (2008 - $808,000) in respect of a reduction in the FIN 48 provision, including a charge of $271,000 (2008 - $698,000) that related to the potential interest and penalty costs. As described in the preceding paragraph, the FIN 48 tax benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 include a benefit of $4,960,000 related to the Italian tax audits.

At June 30, 2009, OEH had recognized a $7,034,000 provision (December 31, 2008 - $11,493,000) in respect of its uncertain tax positions. OEH believes that it is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months the FIN 48 provision will decrease by approximately $1,000,000 as a result of the resolution of tax positions in certain jurisdictions in which OEH operates.

Earnings from unconsolidated companies are reported net of tax in the statements of consolidated operations. The tax provision applicable to these unconsolidated companies in the three months ended June 30, 2009 is $750,000, compared to a provision of $1,439,000 in the corresponding period in 2008. The cumulative tax provision applicable to unconsolidated subsidiaries in the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $1,182,000 compared to a provision of $2,620,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2008.

13. Equity-compensation plans

On June 5, 2009, the shareholders of the Company approved a new 2009 Share Award and Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”) which replaced the 2000 Stock Option Plan, 2004 Stock Option Plan and 2007 Performance Share Plan (the “Pre-existing Plans”). A total of 1,084,550 class A common shares plus the number of class A common shares subject to outstanding awards under the Pre-existing Plans which become available after June 5, 2009 as a result of expirations, cancellations, forfeitures or terminations, are reserved for issuance for awards under 2009 Plan.

The 2009 Plan permits awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, deferred shares, bonus shares and awards in lieu of obligations, dividend equivalents, other share-based awards, performance-based awards, or any combination of the foregoing. Each type of award is granted and vests based on its own terms, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board.

On June 8, 2009, OEH awarded under the 2009 Plan stock options on 631,900 class A common shares at an exercise price of $8.38 per share vesting in June 2012 and expiring in June 2018, deferred shares covering 21,265 class A common shares vesting in February 2012 without performance criteria, and deferred shares covering 926 class A common shares vesting in March 2012 with performance criteria related to total shareholder return and earnings before tax.

OEH awarded under the 2007 Performance Share Plan, on February 2, 2009, 158,046 class A common shares vesting in February 2010 without performance criteria and 68,070 class A common shares vesting in February 2012 without performance criteria and, on March 13, 2009, 210,519 class A common shares vesting in March 2012 with performance criteria related to total shareholder return and earnings before tax.

The fair value of grants issued in the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $4,416,000 (2008-$1,486,000).

The fair value of the stock options issued under the 2009 Plan on the grant date was $4.18 per share.

Estimate of the fair value of stock options on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was based on the following assumptions:

	June 8, 2009

Expected share price volatility	55		%
Risk-free interest rate	2.95		%
Expected annual dividends per share	$	0
Expected life of stock options	5 years

Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s class A common share price and other factors. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

The total compensation cost related to unvested awards outstanding at June 30, 2009, to be recognized over the period July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2012, is $7,891,000.

14. Fair values of financial instruments and non-financial assets

Fair values of financial instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.

The carrying amount of cash, cash equivalents and working capital facilities approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

The fair value of OEH’s long-term debt is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to OEH for debt of the same remaining maturities.

The estimated fair values of OEH’s financial instruments are as follows (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2009
	Carrying amount		Fair value

Cash and cash equivalents	$	143,553	$	143,553
Working capital facilities	$	31,851	$	31,851
Long-term debt, including current portion, excluding obligations under capital leases	$	795,913	$	683,745

Fair values of non-financial assets measured on a non-recurring basis

(dollars in thousands)

			Fair value measurements using
	At June 30, 2009		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)		Total losses for six months ended June 30, 2009
Assets of discontinued operations held for sale	$	76,882	$	—	$	76,882	$	—	$	(26,403	)

Other intangible assets	$	20,504	$	—	$	—	$	20,504	$	(213	)

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, assets of discontinued operations held for sale with a carrying amount of $103,285,000 were written down to their fair value less cost to sell, resulting in a loss of $26,403,000 which was included in losses from discontinued operations for the period (see Note 2).

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, goodwill with a carrying amount of $153,758,000 was written down to its implied fair value of $146,923,000, resulting in an impairment charge of $6,835,000 which was included in earnings from continuing operations for the period (see Note 5).

Also in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, other intangible assets with a carrying amount of $20,717,000 were written down to their fair value of $20,504,000, resulting in an impairment charge of $213,000 which was included in earnings from continuing operations for the period (see Note 5).

15. Commitments and contingencies

Outstanding contracts to purchase fixed assets were approximately $64,389,000 at June 30, 2009 (December 31, 2008 - $76,606,000), including $52,000,000 (December 31, 2008 - $53,000,000) in respect of the New York Public Library contracts referred to in the next paragraph. Additionally, outstanding contracts for project related costs on the Porto Cupecoy development were approximately $20,007,000 at June 30, 2009 (December 31, 2008 - $31,960,000).

As reported in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report, OEH entered into agreements in November 2007 with the New York Public Library to acquire its Donnell Library branch site adjacent to ‘21’ Club and to construct a mixed use hotel and residential development in New York City. In February 2009, in light of current and anticipated future economic conditions, OEH

decided to suspend further payments under the agreements, as they had been amended in December 2008. On July 9, 2009, OEH and the New York Public Library signed agreements to spread future payments on this purchase over the next 24 months. In addition to the $7,000,000 that OEH has already paid, OEH paid $9,000,000 upon execution of the agreements, to be followed by 16 monthly payments of $500,000 each commencing in February 2010, and final payments of $6,000,000 and $29,000,000 respectively in June 2011. In the event OEH elects not to close the transaction, the final payment of $29,000,000 will not be due to the Library. OEH has given the Library security on seven unencumbered villas at La Samanna to secure the payments.

16. Information concerning financial reporting for segments and operations in different geographical areas

As reported in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report, OEH has three reporting segments, (i) hotels and restaurants, (ii) tourist trains and cruises, and (iii) real estate and property development. Segment performance is evaluated based upon segment net earnings before interest, foreign currency, tax (including tax on earnings from unconsolidated companies), depreciation and amortization (“segment EBITDA”). Financial information regarding these business segments is as follows, with net finance costs appearing net of capitalized interest and interest and related income (dollars in thousands):

17. Derivatives and hedging activities

Risk management objective of using derivatives

OEH enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which is determined by interest rates. OEH’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of OEH’s known or expected cash receipts and payments principally related to its investments and borrowings.

Cash flow hedges of interest rate risk

OEH’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add certainty and stability to its interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this

objective, OEH primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for OEH making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional loan amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecast transaction affects earnings. During the next 12 months, OEH estimates that an additional $6,969,000 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2009, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable interest rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.

As of June 30, 2009, OEH had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Interest Rate Derivatives	Notional Amount

Interest Rate Swap	€	165,000,000
Interest Rate Swaps	$	181,250,000

Non-designated hedges of interest rate risk

Derivatives not designated as hedges are used to manage OEH’s exposure to interest rate movements but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements of SFAS No. 133. As of June 30, 2009, OEH had one interest rate swap with a €24,700,000 notional amount that was a non-designated hedge of OEH’s exposure to interest rate risk.

The table below presents the fair value of OEH’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification as of June 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands).

	Liability Derivatives
	Balance Sheet Location	Fair Value as of June 30, 2009		Fair Value as of December 31, 2008
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments under SFAS No. 133
Interest Rate Swaps	Accrued liabilities	$	7,538	$	1,980

Credit-risk-related contingent features

OEH has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision under which if OEH defaults on any of its indebtedness, then OEH could also be declared in default in respect of its derivative obligations.

As of June 30, 2009, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for non-performance risk, related to these agreements was $13,049,000. As of June 30, 2009, OEH has posted cash collateral of $4,612,000 with certain of its derivative counterparties in respect of these net liability positions. If OEH breached any of these provisions, it would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $13,049,000.

SFAS No. 157 disclosures

The following table summarizes the valuation of OEH’s assets and liabilities by the SFAS No. 157 fair value hierarchy at June 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

	June 30, 2009
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets at fair value:
Derivative financial instruments	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—
Total assets	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—
Liabilities at fair value:
Derivative financial instruments	$	—	$	11,996	$	—	$	11,996
Total liabilities	$	—	$	11,996	$	—	$	11,996

The tables below present a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of liabilities having fair value measurements based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

	Beginning balance at April 1, 2009		Transfers into Level 3			Realized losses included in earnings		Unrealized losses included in other comprehensive income		Settle- ments			Ending balance at June 30, 2009
Liabilities at fair value:
Derivative financial instruments	$	7,611	$	(8,128	)	$	1,057	$	413	$	(953	)	$	—
Total liabilities	$	7,611	$	(8,128	)	$	1,057	$	413	$	(953	)	$	—

	Beginning balance at January 1, 2009		Transfers into Level 3			Realized losses included in earnings		Unrealized gains included in other comprehensive income			Settle- ments			Ending balance at June 30, 2009
Liabilities at fair value:
Derivative financial instruments	$	5,858	$	(5,202	)	$	1,405	$	(671	)	$	(1,390	)	$	—
Total liabilities	$	5,858	$	(5,202	)	$	1,405	$	(671	)	$	(1,390	)	$	—

The amount of total losses included in earnings that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those liabilities still held at June 30, 2009 was $104,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and $15,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

OEH reviews its fair value hierarchy classifications quarterly. Changes in significant observable valuation inputs identified during these reviews may trigger a reclassification of the fair value hierarchy levels of financial assets and liabilities. These reclassifications are reported as transfers into Level 3 at their fair values at the beginning of the period in which the change occurs and the transfers out at their fair values at the end of the period. During the three months ended June 30, 2009, OEH transferred certain derivative instruments due to decreased significance of unobservable inputs used to estimate the fair value of these securities.

The fair value of OEH’s derivative financial instruments is computed based on an income approach using appropriate valuation techniques including discounting future cash flows and other methods that are consistent with accepted economic methodologies for pricing financial instruments. Where credit value adjustments exceeded 20% of the fair value of the derivatives, Level 3 inputs are assumed to have a significant impact on the fair value of the derivatives in their entirety and the valuation has been classified in the Level 3 category.

Non-derivative financial instruments — net investment hedges

OEH uses certain of its debt denominated in foreign currency to hedge portions of its net investments in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates. These contracts are included in non-derivative hedging instruments. The fair values of non-derivative hedging instruments were $84,163,000 at June 30, 2009 and $83,403,000 at December 31, 2008, both liabilities. Amounts recorded in other comprehensive income were $4,503,000 loss for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and $36,000 gain for the three months ended June 30, 2008, and a $760,000 loss for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and $5,479,000 loss for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

18. Related party transactions

OEH guarantees a $3,000,000 bank loan to Eastern and Oriental Express Ltd. in which OEH has a minority shareholder interest. The amount due to OEH by Eastern and Oriental Express Ltd. at June 30, 2009 was $1,313,000 (December 31, 2008 - $1,290,000).

OEH manages under long-term contracts the Hotel Monasterio, the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge and Las Casitas del Colca owned by its 50/50 joint venture with local Peruvian interests, as well as the 50/50-owned PeruRail operation, and provides loans, guarantees and other credit accommodation to these joint ventures. In the three months ended June 30, 2009, OEH earned

management and guarantee fees of $1,685,000 (2008 - $2,002,000) and loan interest of $nil (2008 - $15,000) which are recorded in revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, OEH earned management and guarantee fees of $3,155,000 (2008 - $3,714,000) and loan interest of $nil (2008 - $31,000) which are recorded in revenue. The amount due to OEH from its joint venture Peruvian operations at June 30, 2009 was $5,244,000 (December 31, 2008 - $6,502,000).

OEH manages under a long-term contract the Hotel Ritz in Madrid, Spain, in which OEH owns a 50% interest and is accounted for under the equity method. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, OEH earned $329,000 (2008 - $502,000) in management fees, which are included in revenue.

OEH has granted to James Sherwood, a director of the Company, a right of first refusal to purchase the Hotel Cipriani in Venice, Italy in the event OEH proposes to sell it. The purchase price would be the offered sale price in the case of a cash sale or the fair market value of the hotel, as determined by an independent valuer, in the case of a non-cash sale. Mr. Sherwood has also been granted an option to purchase the hotel at fair market value if a change in control of the Company occurs. Mr. Sherwood may elect to pay 80% of the purchase price if he exercises his right of first refusal, or 100% of the purchase price if he exercises his purchase option, by a non-recourse promissory note secured by the hotel payable in ten equal annual instalments with interest at LIBOR. These agreements relating to the Hotel Cipriani between Mr. Sherwood and OEH and its predecessor companies have been in place since 1983 and were last amended and restated in 2005.

19. Subsequent events

OEH has evaluated subsequent events up to August 7, 2009, the date the financial statements are issued.

On July 9, 2009, OEH and the New York Public Library signed agreements to settle disputes relating to the purchase of the Donnell Library branch and redevelopment of the site (see Note 15).

On July 10, 2009, OEH agreed to sell the Windsor Court Hotel in New Orleans. Completion of the sale is scheduled in September 2009.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

OEH has three business segments, namely (1) hotels and restaurants, (2) tourist trains and cruises and (3) real estate and property development. Hotels currently consist of 40 deluxe hotels. Thirty-six of these hotels are wholly or majority owned (except Charleston Place Hotel), and are referred to in this discussion as “owned hotels.” As explained in Note 3 to the financial statements, OEH holds a 19.9% equity investment in Charleston Center LLC, owner of Charleston Place Hotel, which OEH manages and has consolidated into its financial statements effective December 31, 2008. The other four hotels, in which OEH has unconsolidated equity interests and operate under management contracts, are referred to in this discussion as “hotel management interests.” Of the owned hotels, 11 are located in Europe, eight in North America and 17 in the rest of the world.

On June 2, 2009, OEH sold the Lapa Palace Hotel in Lisbon, Portugal at a price of $42.0 million, of which $15.7 million is deferred until 2010, which resulted in a gain of $5.0 million (or $0.08 per share). The operation of this hotel was not material to OEH’s consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, pro forma data have not been presented. In June 2009, OEH decided to sell Windsor Court Hotel in New Orleans. In December 2007, OEH decided to sell its investment in Bora Bora Lagoon Resort. The results of these three hotels have been presented as discontinued operations for all of the interim periods presented.

OEH currently owns and operates the restaurants ‘21’ Club in New York and La Cabana in Buenos Aires.

OEH’s tourist trains and cruises segment operates six tourist trains — four of which are owned and operated by OEH, one in which OEH has an equity interest and exclusive management contracts, and one in which OEH has an equity investment — and a river cruiseship and five canalboats.

For a discussion of OEH’s liquidity, see under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. On May 4, 2009, the Company completed a public offering through underwriters in the United States of 25,875,000 newly issued class A common shares including 3,375,000 shares covered by the underwriters’ over-allotment option in the offering which was exercised in full. OEH intends to use the net proceeds, approximately $140.9 million, primarily for debt reduction and general corporate purposes.

For a discussion of the impact of foreign exchange rate movements on OEH’s results of operations and financial condition and the change of application of accounting policy for Porto Cupecoy, see Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report.

Segment EBITDA	$	26.1		$	49.8

Management evaluates the operating performance of OEH’s segments on the basis of segment EBITDA and believes that segment EBITDA is a useful measure of operating performance because segment EBITDA is not affected by non-operating factors such as leverage and the historic cost of assets. EBITDA is a financial measure commonly used in OEH’s industry. OEH’s segment EBITDA, however, may not be comparable in all instances to EBITDA as disclosed by other companies. Segment EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to earnings from operations or net earnings (as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of OEH’s operating performance, or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of OEH’s ability to meet cash needs.

Restaurants: Revenue decreased by $2.9 million, or 29%, from $10.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $7.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Trains and Cruises: Revenue decreased by $13.1 million, or 28%, from $36.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $23.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Venice Simplon-Orient-Express revenue decreased by $6.4 million from $14.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $7.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, principally as a result of running two fewer services in the current year. Fewer

day train services were operated in the United Kingdom in the six months ended June 30, 2009 than in the prior year, resulting in a revenue decrease of $1.2 million compared with the same period in the prior year.

Real Estate: Although 13 condominiums at Porto Cupecoy were sold during the six months ended June 30, 2009, no revenue was recognized following OEH’s decision to change the application of its accounting policy in respect of the Porto Cupecoy development in the fourth quarter of 2008. Revenue of $8.2 million was recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2008 at Porto Cupecoy under the percentage completion method of accounting. There was no revenue at Keswick Hall in the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to revenue of $0.3 million in respect of the one lot sold in the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.3 million from $18.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $19.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The 2009 depreciation charge includes an expense of $2.0 million in respect of Charleston Place. Excluding this charge, depreciation was $1.7 million lower in 2009 than in the prior period, $1.1 million of which was due to the change in exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with exchange rates in the same period in 2008.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses decreased by $30.2 million from $134.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $104.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Operating expenses in 2009 include a charge of $10.6 million in respect of Charleston Place. Excluding this expenditure, operating expenses were $40.8 million lower in 2009 than in the prior period, $3.6 million of which was due to the change in exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with exchange rates in the same period in 2008. Operating expenses were 49% of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 50% of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Excluding Charleston Place Hotel’s revenue and expenses, operating expenses in 2009 increased by 2% to 51% of revenue.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $11.1 million from $87.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $76.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The 2009 costs include a charge of $6.9 million in respect of Charleston

Place Hotel. Excluding these costs, selling, general and administrative expenses were $18.4 million lower in 2009 than in the prior period, $4.9 million of which was due to the change in exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with exchange rates in the same period in 2008. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 32% of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 36% of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Excluding Charleston Place Hotel’s revenue and expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses in 2009 were 37% of revenue in 2009.

Impairment of goodwill

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, OEH completed its 2008 impairment analysis and identified the following non-cash goodwill and tradename impairments within its continuing operations, considering discounted future cash flows prepared as of the December 31, 2008 balance sheet date (dollars in millions):

Miraflores Park	$	3.2
Casa de Sierra Nevada	3.0
Lilianfels Blue Mountain	0.5
Observatory Hotel	0.3
	$	7.0

These impairments have no cash effect on OEH and arose primarily because of expected reductions in future cash flows.

Segment EBITDA margins (calculated as segment EBITDA as a percentage of revenue) decreased by 11% from 24% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, to 13% for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Excluding impairment of goodwill in the six months ended June 30, 2009, segment EBITDA decreased by 8%, or $31.4 million, to $34.0 million. The segment EBITDA margin in the six months ended June 30, 2009, excluding the impact of the impairment of goodwill, was 16%.

The European hotels collectively reported a segment EBITDA of $11.8 million in 2009 compared to $29.4 million in the same period in 2008. As a percentage of European hotels revenue, the European segment EBITDA margin fell from 28% in 2008 to 18% in 2009.

With the inclusion of Charleston Place Hotel from January 1, 2009, segment EBITDA in the North American hotel region increased by 39% from $8.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008, to $12.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Segment EBITDA in the Rest of the World hotel region decreased by 21% from $16.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $12.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The segment EBITDA margin for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was 22%, compared to a margin of 23% for the same period in 2008.

Earnings from operations before net finance costs

Earnings from operations decreased by $30.5 million from a profit of $34.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to a profit of $3.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, due to the factors described above.

Net finance costs

Net finance costs increased by $3.0 million, or 17%, from $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $21.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The six months ended June 30, 2008 included a foreign exchange gain of $4.7 million compared to a foreign exchange loss of $4.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Excluding these foreign exchange items, net interest expense decreased by $5.9 million, or 26%, from $22.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $16.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily as a result of lower interest rates in the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes decreased by $5.3 million, from a provision of $6.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to a provision of $0.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009.

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2009 includes a current tax charge of $2.2 million and a deferred tax charge of $3.2 million arising in Italy in connection with the closure of a tax audit in respect of the 2004, 2005 and 2006 tax years. OEH had previously included a liability of $4.9 million within its FIN 48 provision in respect of these uncertain tax positions. The provision for income taxes in the six months ended June 30, 2009 includes a tax credit in the amount of $4.9 million to release this FIN 48 provision. The net cost to OEH taking into account all of these entries is $0.5 million. The $2.2 million current tax liability is payable in twelve quarterly instalments of approximately $0.2 million each, commencing in July 2009.

Excluding the FIN 48 tax credit related to the Italian uncertain tax position, the provision from income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2009 included a tax charge of $0.6 million in respect of the FIN 48 liability, compared to a provision of $0.8 million in respect of the FIN 48 liability in the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Earnings from unconsolidated companies

Earnings from unconsolidated companies net of tax decreased by $6.7 million, from $9.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The 2008 earnings included $4.3 million in respect of Charleston Place Hotel, which is included within OEH’s consolidated earnings with effect from January 1, 2009. Excluding this hotel from the prior year, earnings from unconsolidated companies net of tax decreased by $2.4 million from $5.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The tax cost associated with earnings from unconsolidated companies, excluding Charleston Place Hotel, was $1.5 million in 2008 and $1.2 million in 2009.

Loss from discontinued operations

The Bora Bora Lagoon Resort’s net loss increased from $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The 2009 loss includes an impairment charge of $12.0 million in respect of this property.

The Windsor Court net loss increased from $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The 2009 loss includes an impairment charge of $21.5 million in anticipation of the sale of this property, with a related tax credit of $7.1 million in respect of the impairment write down.

The Lapa Palace Hotel net earnings increased from $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The 2009 earnings included a gain of $5.0 million arising on the disposal of the hotel, including a foreign currency translation adjustment gain of $6.7 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital

OEH had cash and cash equivalents of $143.6 million at June 30, 2009, $78.8 million more than the $64.8 million at December 31, 2008. In addition, OEH had restricted cash of $13.1 million (December 31, 2008 - $13.2 million) mainly related to the Porto Cupecoy project in St Martin, which will be released when the next 12.5% phase of construction is completed. At June 30, 2009, there were undrawn amounts available to OEH under committed short-term lines of credit of $25.2 million and undrawn amounts available to OEH under secured revolving credit facilities of $32.0 million, bringing total cash availability at June 30, 2009 to $213.9 million, including the restricted cash of $13.1 million.

Current assets less current liabilities, including the current portion of long-term debt, resulted in a working capital surplus of $51.4 million at June 30, 2009, an increase of $42.0 million from a surplus of $9.4 million at December 31, 2008. The main factors that contributed to the increase in working capital were the increase in cash and cash equivalents offset by the impairments to the Windsor Court and Bora Bora Lagoon Resort and by the increase in the current portion of long-term debt.

Cash Flow

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $20.4 million from $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease was due to worse performance of the continuing hotels in the first six months of 2009.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities decreased by $40.8 million to $17.3 million cash outflow for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $58.1 million cash outflow for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

The $24.3 million disposals in the six months ended June 30, 2009 consisted mainly of proceeds from the sale of Lapa Palace Hotel. The $3.3 million acquisitions made during the first six months of 2008 included acquisitions of the 20% minority interest in Casa de Sierra Nevada, and the La Samanna spa acquisition. There were no acquisitions in the first six months of 2009.

Restricted cash in the first six months of 2009 decreased by $0.1 million compared to an increase in restricted cash of $3.7 million in the same period in 2008. This mainly represented movements in Porto Cupecoy escrow account.

Capital expenditure of $40.9 million included $6.5 million of Hotel Cipriani refurbishment, $5.7 million of Hotel das Cataratas capital costs, $4.0 million of Copacabana Palace Hotel refurbishment, $4.9 million of Grand Hotel Europe refurbishment, $2.8 million of El Encanto construction costs, and $2.8 million on construction of assets at Porto Cupecoy in St. Martin.

Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $92.9 million compared to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of $82.0 million. On May 4, 2009, the Company completed a public offering of 25,875,000 class A common shares with net proceeds of $140.9 million. This was offset by net debt repayments of $48.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared with net borrowings of $12.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2008. Of the repayments in 2009, $25.8 million related to discontinued operations of Hotel Lapa and Windsor Court.

Capital Commitments. There were $64.4 million of capital commitments outstanding as of June 30, 2009 of which $12.4 million relates to investments in owned hotels and $52.0 million to the purchase of land and a building adjoining ‘21’ Club, New York. OEH negotiated a deferral of this purchase in early July 2009.

Indebtedness

At June 30, 2009, OEH had $808.7 million of long-term debt secured by assets, including the current portion, which is repayable over periods of 1 to 11 years with a weighted average maturity of 2.8 years and a weighted average interest rate of 3.75%. See Note 7 to the financial statements regarding the maturity of long-term debt. Additionally there was $36.8 million of debt related to discontinued operations.

Approximately 50% of the outstanding principal was drawn in European euros and the balance primarily in U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2009, 46% of borrowings of OEH were in floating interest rates.

Liquidity

During the six months ending December 31, 2009, OEH has approximately $16.7 million of scheduled debt repayments, excluding amounts relating to revolving working capital facilities, which it expects to meet through operating cash flow, other available committed facilities and the May 2009 share sale proceeds, and excluding $3.0 million of debt at Keswick Hall which comes due when the relevant building lots are sold. OEH expects to repay mortgage debt of $36.8 million on closing of the sale of Windsor Court Hotel in September 2009. This debt is included within liabilities of discontinued operations held for sale.

OEH’s capital commitments amount to $64.4 million of which $52.0 million relates to the purchase of land and a building adjoining ‘21’ Club from the New York Public Library. On July 9, 2009, OEH and the New York Public Library signed agreements to spread and secure future payments on this purchase over the next 24 months. In addition to the $7 million that OEH has already paid, OEH paid $9 million upon execution of the agreements, to be followed by 16 monthly payments of $0.5 million each commencing in February 2010, and final payments of $6 million and $29 million respectively in June 2011. In the event OEH elects not to close the transaction, the final payment of $29 million will not be due to the Library. The balance of $12.4 million of capital commitments is currently covered by committed funding and projected operating cash flows. OEH expects to incur costs of a further $20.0 million to complete construction of its Porto Cupecoy development, which will be funded by a short-term loan agreed with a bank lender in April 2009 and from monies received from buyers of sold units.

On May 4, 2009, OEH completed a public offering through underwriters in the United States of 25,875,000 newly issued class A common shares including 3,375,000 shares covered by the underwriters’ over-allotment option in the offering which was exercised in full. OEH intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, approximately $140.9 million, primarily for debt reduction and general corporate purposes. Accordingly, OEH expects to have available cash to fund its working capital requirements, capital expenditure and debt service for the foreseeable future.

OEH recognizes that, in the current economic climate, there is an enhanced risk of a financial covenant breach in its existing loan facilities if weak trading conditions lead to a deterioration of OEH’s results and the costs of implementing remedial steps reduce OEH’s earnings in any given period. If current economic conditions, including the volatility recently experienced in foreign exchange and global debt markets, continue or worsen, OEH believes there is heightened risk that it could breach certain financial covenants applicable to OEH during 2009.

OEH’s liquidity would be adversely affected if a covenant breach occurred in a material loan facility and OEH were unable to agree with its bankers how the particular financial covenant should be amended or how the breach could be cured. OEH expects to take pro-active steps to meet with its bankers to seek an amendment to any specific financial covenant if OEH believed that it was likely that the covenant would be breached because of adverse trading conditions or incurrence of additional costs. OEH can give no assurance that OEH’s loan facility lenders would agree to modify any affected covenant, which could impact OEH’s ability to fund its cash requirements for working capital, commitments and debt service and could cause an event of default under any affected loan facility.

As disclosed in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report, OEH was concerned that it could violate a minimum $600 million tangible net worth covenant in two long-term debt facilities at the end of its first quarter of 2009. Approximately $102.3 million had been borrowed under these facilities at March 31, 2009 when tangible net worth calculated under the covenants was approximately $586 million. In May 2009, OEH and the bank lenders agreed a waiver of these net worth covenants, and OEH repaid $9.7 million in June 2009 in connection with the waiver. One of the loans is the Windsor Court Hotel mortgage loan that OEH expects to repay in September 2009.

At June 30, 2009, OEH was in compliance with all major covenants, except as noted below.

Also as disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K annual report, Hotel Ritz, Madrid, in which OEH has a 50% interest, was out of compliance with a debt service coverage ratio in its first mortgage loan facility which is non-recourse to and not credit-supported by OEH or its joint venture partner in the hotel. OEH and its partner continue to service the debt and to negotiate with the lender to determine how to bring the hotel back into compliance. No assurance can be given that these negotiations will be successful.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

As of June 30, 2009, OEH had adopted SFAS No. 160, SFAS No. 161, SFAS No. 141(R), FSP FAS 142-3, SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, SFAS No. 165, FSP FAS 157-4, and FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, as reported in Note 1(a) to the financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

For a discussion of these, see under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies” in Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

OEH is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures are monitored and managed as part of OEH’s overall risk management program, which recognizes the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to mitigate material adverse effects on consolidated earnings and cash flows. OEH does not hold market rate sensitive financial instruments for trading purposes.

The market risk relating to interest rates arises mainly from the financing activities of OEH. Earnings are affected by changes in interest rates on borrowings, principally based on U.S. dollar LIBOR and EURIBOR, and on short-term cash investments. If interest rates increased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, annual net finance costs of OEH would have increased by approximately $1,900,000 on an annual basis based on borrowings at June 30, 2009. The interest rates on substantially all of OEH’s long-term debt are adjusted regularly to reflect current market rates. Accordingly, the carrying amounts approximate fair value.

The market risk relating to foreign currencies and its effects have not changed materially during the first six months of 2009 from those described in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of its chief executive and financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e)) as of June 30, 2009 and, based on that evaluation, believes those disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of that date. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(f)) during the second quarter of 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met such as prevention and detection of mis-statement. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate, for example. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

As previously reported in the Company’s 2008 Form 10-K annual report, three hedge funds owning collectively about 6.1 million class A common shares in the Company filed a petition in the Supreme Court of Bermuda on January 12, 2009 challenging on various grounds the Company’s corporate governance structure with dual class A and class B common shares outstanding and ownership of higher-voting class B common shares by a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The named respondents are the Company, its subsidiary and seven of the current eight members of Company’s Board of Directors.

The Company continues to believe the petition is without merit and intends to defend the action vigorously. The respondents filed points of defence to the petition on May 11, 2009. After the petitioners filed points of reply on June 11, 2009 to the points of defence, the petitioners and the respondents filed with the Court on July 10 and 17, 2009 separate summonses seeking, among other matters, a trial on preliminary issues relating to the legality of the holding of class B common shares in the Company by the subsidiary. The respondents also filed a summons seeking to strike out (dismiss) the petition. A hearing before the Court is likely to be held during August 2009 at which further proceedings on the production of evidence and the substance of the summonses will be scheduled later in the year.

ITEM 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The Company convened and held an annual general meeting of shareholders on June 5, 2009.
