Exhibit 99
[CRESTLINE LETTERHEAD APPEARS HERE]
CRESTLINE CAPITAL CORPORATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS ELECT NEW MEMBER
BETHESDA, MD, September 15, 1999 Crestline Capital Corporation (NYSE:CLJ)
announced today that its Board of Directors has elected William L. Wilson,
Principal-in-Charge of Synterra, Ltd., to its Board. Mr. Wilson fills the
Board seat vacated by Christopher J. Nassetta, Executive Vice President and
Chief Operating Officer of Host Marriott Corporation. The Board accepted
Mr. Nassetta's resignation to avoid any conflict of interest during possible
lease termination negotiations with Host Marriott. The REIT Modernization Act,
if passed, would allow REITs to own their lessees in taxable subsidiaries
beginning January 2001. Therefore, Host Marriott Corporation may choose to
terminate its 119 full-service leases with Crestline Capital.
Bruce D. Wardinski, Chairman of the Board and CEO, stated, "Although we
regretfully accept Mr. Nassetta's resignation, we are extremely pleased to
announce the addition of Mr. Wilson to our Board. Mr. Wilson's high personal
integrity, stellar reputation in the community, and business experience will be
a definite asset to Crestline Capital."
Mr. Wilson has successfully directed the growth of Synterra Ltd., a firm of
site/landscape architects, development planners, project managers, and
construction managers in the U.S. and abroad. His many affiliations include:
United Way African American Fund Raising Initiative of Philadelphia, City of
Philadelphia Art Commission, Board of Trustee member and Chairperson of Building
and Grounds Committee for the Pennsylvania School for the Deaf and many more.
