Of the shares of Class A Common Stock beneficially owned by Family Corp, 7,848,315 shares have been pledged as collateral in connection with investments in hotel properties.
Foundation Stock Trading Plan
J.W. Marriott, Jr., John W. Marriott III, Deborah Marriott Harrison, Richard E. Marriott (the brother of J.W. Marriott, Jr.) and two of Richard E. Marriott’s adult daughters serve as co-trustees of the J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott Foundation (the “Foundation”) and may be deemed to have beneficial ownership over the shares held by the Foundation. Each has no pecuniary interest in the shares held by the Foundation. In order to ensure compliance with certain federal tax requirements limiting the number of shares of voting stock that can be owned by a private foundation, the Foundation entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Stock Trading Plan (the “Stock Trading Plan”) as of March 16, 2009 with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, a registered broker-dealer, for the purpose of establishing a trading plan to effect sales of shares of the Class A Common Stock in compliance with all applicable laws including, without limitation, Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder including, without limitation, Rule 10b5-1.
Under the Stock Trading Plan, the Foundation will sell up to an aggregate of 9,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock beginning in May 2009 through October 31, 2015. The Stock Trading Plan provides for a minimum price each selling period, generally calendar quarters, that gradually increases each subsequent selling period. Any shares not sold during a selling period are rolled forward and available for sale in the subsequent period at the new price threshold. As of the date of this Amendment, an aggregate of 4,300,000 shares have been sold under the Stock Trading Plan. All sales under the Stock Trading Plan will be made in accordance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the manner of sale and volume limitations of Rule 144. A copy of the Stock Trading Plan was filed as Exhibit 7.03 to a Schedule 13D amendment filed on April 21, 2009 and is incorporated herein by reference.

3.4 Permitted Pledges.

Each Stockholder agrees, at the direction of the Corporation, to pledge his or her Stock to secure any loan made to the Corporation, the Hotel Partnerships, or any other entity controlled by the Corporation, so long as all Stockholders are similarly required to pledge their Stock.
3.5 Other Transfers of Stock Not Valid. Any purported transfer, sale, assignment, mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, gift, or bequest of any Stock that is not in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be null and void and neither the Corporation nor any Stockholder shall recognize the validity of any such transfer, sale, assignment, mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, gift, or bequest.
3.6 Involuntary Transfers.
(a) Upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any Stock owned by a Stockholder to be transferred by Involuntary Transfer (other than to a Person or trust that is a permitted transferee of such Stockholder as provided in Section 3.2, Section 3.3 and Section 3.4), such Stockholder (or his legal representative or successor), as the case may be, shall give the Corporation and the other Stockholders written notice thereof stating the terms of such Involuntary Transfer, the identity of the transferee or proposed transferee, the price or other consideration, if readily determinable, for which the Stock is proposed to be or have been transferred and the number of shares of Stock which are the subject of such Involuntary Transfer. For purposes of this Section 3.6, “Involuntary Transfer” means, with respect to any Stock, any involuntary transfer or transfer by operation of law of such Stock (other than to a Person or trust that is a permitted transferee of such Stockholder as provided in Section 3.2, Section 3.3 and Section 3.4) by or in which such Stockholder shall be deprived or divested of any right, title or interest in or to any Stock, including, without limitation, by seizure under levy of attachment or
- 4 -
(b) After its receipt of such notice or, failing such receipt, after the Corporation otherwise obtains actual knowledge of such a proposed or completed Involuntary Transfer, the Corporation shall have the right and option to purchase all or any portion of such Stock, which right shall be exercised by written notice given by the Corporation to the transferor (or transferee following the occurrence of any Involuntary Transfer) and the other Stockholders within sixty (60) days following the later of (i) the Corporation’s receipt of such notice or, failing such receipt, the Corporation’s obtaining actual knowledge of such proposed or completed Transfer and (ii) the date of such Involuntary Transfer.
(c) If the Corporation elects not to exercise its purchase right or elects to exercise its purchase right with respect to a portion but not all of such Stock, then each of the other Stockholders holding shares of the same class of Stock which are the subject of such Involuntary Transfer shall have the same right and option to purchase any such Stock not to be purchased by the Corporation, which right shall be exercised by written notice given by such Stockholders to the transferor (or transferee following the occurrence of any Involuntary Transfer) and the other Stockholders within sixty (60) days following the end of the 60-day period referenced in subsection (b) above. Each Stockholder shall have the right to purchase his or her pro rata share of the Stock of the applicable class, and if any Stockholder elects not to purchase its pro rata share, then the remaining Stockholders in such class may purchase his or her pro rata share of such Stock. All of the Stock which is the subject of such Involuntary Transfer shall be allocated by continuing to apply this mechanism until the Stockholders have elected to purchase all of the Stock they desire to purchase.
(d) Any purchase pursuant to this Section 3.6 shall be at the price and on the terms applicable to such Involuntary Transfer. If the nature of the event giving rise to such Involuntary Transfer is such that no readily determinable consideration is to be paid for or assigned to the transfer of the Stock, the price to be paid by the Corporation or Stockholders, as applicable, for each share of Stock shall be the fair market value thereof as of the date of transfer, taking into account any appropriate discounts for lack of control and lack of marketability of the shares of Stock.
(e) The closing of the purchase and sale of such Stock pursuant to this Section 3.6 shall be held at the place and on the date established by the Corporation. At such closing, the Stockholder (or his legal representative or successor), as the case may be, shall deliver the certificates evidencing the Stock to be purchased by the Corporation or other Stockholders, as applicable, accompanied by stock powers, duly endorsed in blank, or duly executed instruments of transfer, and any other documents that are necessary to transfer to the Corporation or purchasing Stockholder, as applicable, good title to such Stock free and clear of all liens and encumbrances and, concurrently with such delivery, the Corporation or purchasing Stockholder, as applicable, shall deliver to the transferor thereof the full amount of the purchase price therefor in cash.

(b) Exculpation.

- 10 -
Person or trust that is a permitted transferee of an Original Voting Stockholder as provided in Section 3.2, Section 3.3 and Section 3.4) holds any Stock of the Corporation. Termination of this Agreement will not affect any party’s liability for a breach of this Agreement that occurred prior to such termination.
9.2 Agreement Binding Upon Transferees. If any Stock is transferred by a Stockholder to any party, the transferee shall take such Stock subject to all provisions, conditions, and covenants of this Agreement.
9.3 Specific Performance. The parties agree that the failure of any party to perform the obligations provided by this Agreement could result in irreparable damage to the other parties, and that monetary damages alone would not be adequate to compensate the non-defaulting party for its injury. Any party shall therefore be entitled, in addition to any other remedies that may be available, including money damages, to obtain specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. If any action is brought by any party to enforce this Agreement, any party against which the action is brought shall waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
9.4 Amendments. This Agreement cannot be amended, supplemented, or modified and no provision of this Agreement may be waived except by an agreement in writing which makes specific reference to this Agreement and which is signed by those Stockholders holding 75% or more of the Class A Stock and those Stockholders holding 75% or more of the Class B Stock; provided, however, that any amendment or modification that would treat a Stockholder differently than another Stockholder of the same class in a material and adverse manner (except in proportion to their ownership interests or voting rights) shall require the consent of such Stockholder.
9.5 Notices. All notices, demands, and requests required or permitted to be given under the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly delivered and received (a) on the date of personal delivery, (b) on the date of receipt (as shown on the return receipt) if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, or sent by commercial courier service, or (c) on the date of receipt by telecopy. Notices, demands, and requests shall be addressed to the address that a party may designate from time to time upon notice to the other parties given in like manner. Rejection or other refusal to accept or the inability to deliver because of changed address of which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the notice, demand, or request sent.
9.6 Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

9.7 Benefit and Burden. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the parties and their legatees, distributees, estates, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and other legal representatives. Nothing express or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or to provide any Person, other than the parties, any rights or remedies hereunder or by reason hereof. This Agreement and all its conditions and provisions are intended to be, and are, for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and are not for the benefit of any other Person.
9.8 Gender and Number. Words used herein, regardless of the gender and number specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, and any other number, singular or plural, as the context requires.
9.9 Waiver. The failure of any party at any time to insist upon strict performance of any condition, promise, agreement, or understanding set forth in this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the right to insist upon strict performance of the same or any other condition, promise, agreement, or understanding at a future time.
9.10 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party shall pay its own expenses incurred in connection with the authorization, preparation, execution, and performance of this Agreement, including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, agents, and other representatives.
9.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties, and supersedes all prior written and oral agreements between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof. No variations, modifications, or changes herein or hereof shall be binding upon either party unless set forth in a document duly executed by or on behalf of such party except as expressly provided herein.
9.12 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED, AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF).
9.13 Headings. The headings, subheadings, and other captions in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be used in interpreting, construing, or enforcing any of the provisions of this Agreement.
9.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
9.15 Exclusive Agreement. Except as expressly authorized by this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall enter into a voting trust or voting agreement with any other Person (other than another Stockholder that is a party to and bound by this Agreement) or give a proxy to any such Person or otherwise agree with any such person to restrict or limit the power to vote any Stock.

9.16 Conflicting Charter or By-Law Provisions. Each Stockholder entitled to vote any Stock shall, at all times and from time to time as required, vote his or her Stock, and shall take all other actions necessary, to ensure that the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation and the By-Laws of the Corporation facilitate and do not at any time conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.
9.17 Mediation; Arbitration.
(a) Mediation. If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement or any alleged breach thereof and if the dispute is not settled through negotiation, the Stockholders involved in the dispute agree to submit the dispute for mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association (or any organization successor thereto) (“AAA”) under its Commercial Mediation Rules before resorting to arbitration. Any Stockholder involved in the dispute may initiate mediation pursuant to Rule 2 of the AAA’s Commercial Mediation Rules. The Stockholders will cooperate with the AAA and with one another in the appointment of a mediator and in scheduling the mediation proceedings. Unless otherwise agreed by the Stockholders involved in the dispute, the first mediation session shall be held no later than thirty days after the date of filing the written request for mediation, and the memorandum provided for under Rule 9 of the Commercial Mediation Rules shall be provided to the mediator at least five days prior to the first mediation session. All offers, promises, conduct, and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the Stockholders, their agents, employees, experts, and attorneys, and by the mediator or any AAA employees, shall be confidential and inadmissible for any purposes, including impeachment, in any arbitration or other proceeding involving the parties, but evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. Any Stockholder involved in the dispute may initiate arbitration with respect to the matters submitted to mediation by filing a written demand for arbitration with the AAA no sooner than thirty days after the first mediation session. The mediation may continue after the commencement of arbitration if the Stockholders involved so agree. Unless otherwise agreed by the Stockholders involved in the dispute, the mediator shall be disqualified from serving as arbitrator in the case.
(b) Arbitration. If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement or any alleged breach thereof, and if the dispute is not resolved through negotiation and mediation, such dispute shall be settled by arbitration in Washington, D.C. in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA and the Supplementary Procedures for Large, Complex Disputes of the AAA or other rules agreed to by the Stockholders involved in the dispute, by three arbitrators. The Stockholder requesting arbitration shall do so by giving notice to that effect (the “Arbitration Notice”) to the other Stockholder or Stockholders involved in the dispute and by filing the notice with the AAA in accordance with Rule 6 of the Commercial Arbitration Rules. Within thirty days after the Arbitration Notice is filed, the Stockholders involved in the dispute shall select three arbitrators from the arbitrators in the Large, Complex case pool for the Washington, D.C. AAA office, as follows: the Stockholder requesting arbitration shall select one arbitrator; the other Stockholder or Stockholders shall select one arbitrator; and the two selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator. The arbitrators shall take evidence directly from witnesses and documents presented by the Stockholders involved in the dispute. All witnesses shall be available for cross-examination. The arbitrators shall have no authority to make any
- 13 -
decision or issue any award that is inconsistent with this Agreement. The arbitrators shall render their written decision and award, including a statement of reasons upon which such award is based, within ninety days after their receipt of all information required to be submitted to them or otherwise requested by them. The agreement to arbitrate set forth in this Section shall be construed, and the legal relations among the Stockholders shall be determined in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of Delaware as provided for in Section 9.12 of this Agreement. The decision of the arbitrators shall be in writing and shall be binding upon the Stockholders involved in the dispute, final and non-appealable. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. No action at law or in equity based upon any dispute that is subject to arbitration under this Section shall be instituted. All expenses of any arbitration pursuant to this Section, including fees and expenses of the Stockholders’ attorneys, fees and expenses of the arbitrators, and fees and expenses of any witness or the cost of any proof produced at the request of the arbitrators, shall be borne by the Stockholders as determined by the arbitrators.
