STR, an independent research firm servicing the travel industry, compiles occupancy rate, average daily room rate, RevPAR, and other relevant information concerning the lodging industry and is used by substantially all of the major lodging companies for tracking this data. The information in this Item 19 used in calculating average occupancy rate, average daily room rate, and average RevPAR was compiled and reported by STR, and such information has not been audited or otherwise confirmed by us. The results of the STR Included Hotels that operate in Canada are reported to us in Canadian Dollars (“CAD”) by STR on a monthly basis. In preparing the performance data for the STR Included Hotels, we converted these results from CAD to United States Dollars (“USD” or “$”) using the currency exchange rate in effect as of the second to the last day of the month in which the results were achieved, as published by the United States Department of Treasury. The data in this Item 19 regarding reservations and the loyalty programs was not provided by STR, but instead was drawn from Marriott’s internal databases. Because of STR’s minimum competitive set reporting requirements, some hotels that are Included Hotels and are reflected in Marriott’s internal databases may not be included in the STR data and, as a result, would not be STR Included Hotels for purposes of this Item 19.

We may expand or otherwise modify the scope of this program to reflect, among other things, changes in consumer searching and booking preferences, and we may adjust the charge for digitally generated stays accordingly.
