                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used throughout this report, the words "believes", "anticipates",
"expects", "intends", "hopes" and other similar expressions, which are
predictions of or indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking
statements.  Such statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties
which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected,
including:  competition within each of the Company's business segments; the
balance between supply of and demand for hotel rooms, timeshare units and senior
living accommodations;  the Company's continued ability to obtain new operating
contracts and franchise agreements; the Company's ability to develop and
maintain positive relations with current and potential hotel and retirement
community owners and contract services clients; the effect of international,
national and regional economic conditions;  the availability of capital to fund
investments; the Company's ability to achieve synergies and performance
improvements subsequent to closing on acquisitions; and other risks described
from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including those set forth on Exhibit 99 filed herewith.  Given these
uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such
statements.  The Company also undertakes no obligation to publicly update or
revise any forward-looking statement to reflect current or future events or
circumstances.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation
   ---------------------
   The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Marriott
   International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared
   without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
   in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted
   accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes
   the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not
   misleading. However, the condensed consolidated financial statements should
   be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
   thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
   year ended January 3, 1997. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
   have the meanings specified in the Annual Report.

   In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying condensed consolidated
   financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal
   recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of
   the Company as of June 20, 1997 and January 3, 1997, and the results of
   operations for the twenty-four weeks and twelve weeks ended June 20, 1997 and
   June 14, 1996. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year
   performance because of seasonal and short-term variations. All material
   intercompany transactions and balances between Marriott International, Inc.
   and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

   Certain amounts previously presented have been reclassified to conform to
   the 1997 presentation.

2. Earnings Per Share
   ------------------
   Earnings per share is computed on a fully diluted basis using the weighted
   average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding plus
   other potentially dilutive securities which, in the aggregate, totaled 139.0
   million and 137.3 million for the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 1997 and
   June 14, 1996, respectively, and 139.2 million and 140.2 million for the
   twelve weeks ended June 20, 1997 and June 14, 1996, respectively. Common
   equivalent shares are computed using the treasury stock method based on the
   higher of average or end of period market prices. The if converted method is
   used for convertible subordinated debt.

3. Acquisitions and Dispositions
   -----------------------------
   Renaissance Hotel Group N.V. On March 29, 1997, the Company acquired
   substantially all of the outstanding common stock of Renaissance Hotel Group
   N.V. (RHG), an operator and franchisor of 150 hotels in 38 countries under
   the Renaissance, New World and Ramada International brands. The total
   acquisition cost, of approximately $1 billion, was funded with proceeds from
   commercial paper borrowings, supported by the Company's long-term revolving
   credit facility. The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase
   method of accounting. The purchase cost has been allocated to the assets
   acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values. Goodwill is
   being amortized on a straight line basis over 40 years. Amounts allocated to
   management and licensing agreements are being amortized on a straight line
   basis over the estimated lives of the agreements.



                                       7

The Company's reported results of operations include RHG's operating
results from the date of acquisition. Summarized below are the unaudited pro
forma consolidated results of operations of the Company for the twenty-four
weeks ended June 20, 1997 and June 14, 1996, as if RHG had been acquired at the
beginning of the respective periods (in millions, except per share amounts).

Unaudited pro forma net income includes interest expense on borrowings relating
to the Company's acquisition of RHG's common stock as well as the impact on
historical interest expense of the revaluation of RHG's debt based on the
Company's borrowing cost. Amortization expense included in net income reflects
the impact of the excess of the purchase price over the net tangible assets
acquired. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations are not
intended to reflect the Company's expected future results of operations.

Dr. Henry Cheng Kar-Shun is the Managing Director of New World Development
Company Limited (New World) and, together with his family and affiliated
corporations, owns or otherwise controls a majority of New World's common stock.
Effective June 1, 1997, Dr. Cheng was appointed to the Company's Board of
Directors. Dr. Cheng, New World and their affiliates own all or a portion of 87
hotels that are operated by the Company, and prior to the Company's acquisition
of RHG, owned a majority of RHG common stock. New World and other affiliates of
Dr. Cheng have indemnified RHG, its subsidiaries and the Company for certain
lease, debt, guarantee and other obligations in connection with the formation of
RHG as a hotel management company in 1995.

Property Sales. On April 3, 1997, the Company agreed to sell and leaseback,
under long-term, limited-recourse leases, 14 limited service hotels for
approximately $149 million in cash. Concurrently, the Company paid security
deposits of $15 million, which will be refunded upon expiration of the leases.
These operating leases have initial terms of 17 years, and are renewable at the
option of the Company. On April 11, 1997, the Company sold five senior living
communities for cash consideration of approximately $79 million. The Company
will continue to operate the communities under long-term management agreements.

Forum Group, Inc. On March 25, 1996, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Forum Group, Inc.
(Forum), for total cash consideration of approximately $303 million. The
Company's results of operations include Forum from the acquisition date.
Unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations of the Company for the
twenty-four weeks ended June 14, 1996, as if Forum had been acquired

<PAGE>
 
   at December 29, 1995, would have resulted in sales of $4,564 million, net
   income of $135 million, and earnings per share of $1.00.

   On June 21, 1997, the Company sold 29 retirement communities acquired as part
   of the Forum acquisition, to Host Marriott Corporation (together with its
   subsidiaries, Host Marriott) for approximately $550 million, including
   approximately $87 million to be received as expansions at certain communities
   are completed. The $463 million received at closing, which is subject to
   adjustment based on finalization of working capital levels at the properties,
   was comprised of $205 million in cash, $187 million of outstanding debt, $50
   million of notes receivable due in 12 months, and $21 million of notes
   receivable due January 1, 2001. The notes receivable from Host Marriott bear
   interest at nine percent. Under the terms of sale, Host Marriott purchased
   all of the common stock of Forum which, at the time of the sale, included the
   29 communities, certain working capital and associated debt. The Company will
   continue to operate these communities under long-term management agreements.

4. Commitments
   -----------
   The Company issues guarantees to lenders and other third parties in
   connection with financing transactions and other obligations. These
   guarantees are limited, in the aggregate, to $222 million at June 20, 1997,
   including $151 million applicable to guarantees by or debt obligations of
   Host Marriott, partnerships in which Host Marriott is the general partner or
   other affiliated entities. As of June 20, 1997, the Company had extended
   approximately $320 million of loan commitments to owners of lodging and
   senior living properties. Previously, the Company had a $225 million line of
   credit available to Host Marriott which was terminated by mutual consent on
   June 19, 1997. Letters of credit outstanding on the Company's behalf at June
   20, 1997 totaled $142 million, the majority of which related to the
   Company's self-insurance program. At June 20, 1997, the Company had a
   repurchase obligation of $75 million related to notes receivable from
   timeshare interval purchasers that have been sold with limited recourse. New
   World and another affiliate of Dr. Cheng have severally indemnified the
   Company for loan guarantees with a maximum funding of $33 million and lease
   guarantees by RHG with minimum annual payments of approximately $60 million.

5. New Accounting Standards
   ------------------------
   On January 4, 1997, the Company adopted FAS No. 125, "Accounting for
   Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of
   Liabilities," with no material effect on the Company's consolidated financial
   statements. The Company will adopt FAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" and FAS
   No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" in the fourth
   quarter of 1997, and FAS 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" and FAS 131
   "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" during
   1998. These statements are not expected to have a material effect on the
   Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company reported net income of $83 million for the second quarter, on sales
of $2,878 million. This represents an 11 percent increase in net income and 22
percent increase in sales over the second quarter of 1996. Earnings per share of
$.61 for the quarter increased 11 percent over the corresponding 1996 quarter.
Excluding the impact of the RHG acquisition, net income and earnings per share
for the quarter were up 19 percent and 18 percent, respectively, on 15 percent
sales growth.

LODGING added a net of 197 hotels (53,106 rooms) during the second quarter of
1997, including 150 hotels (46,496 rooms) as part of the RHG acquisition. The
Company expects to operate and franchise nearly 1,500 hotels (300,000 rooms) by
the end of 1997. Hotels by brand are as follows:

Lodging operating profits were up 24 percent, on a sales increase of 23 percent.
The revenue increase resulted from REVPAR growth across all brands averaging
nine percent, and the net addition of 433 hotels since the beginning of 1996.
This revenue growth resulted in the Company earning higher base management and
franchise fees. Revenue growth also contributed to higher house profits which
resulted in higher incentive management fees.

</TABLE>

Sales for Marriott Hotels, Resorts and Suites, which comprise more than 60
percent of total lodging sales, increased nine percent over the prior year. A 10
percent increase in average room rate, and a slight increase in occupancy
generated a REVPAR increase of 10 percent which drove higher base management and
franchise fees. Profit growth reflects higher incentive fees at many hotels and
the addition of 22 properties since the beginning of 1996.

Ritz-Carlton reported an increase in average room rates of seven percent and
occupancy increased six percentage points to 82 percent, resulting in a 14
percent increase in REVPAR. Ritz-Carlton opened a property in Osaka, Japan this
quarter, and is on schedule to open new, managed properties in San Juan, Puerto
Rico and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia by early 1998.

RHG contributed $183 million in sales during the quarter. After intangible
amortization and interest expense, the RHG acquisition reduced earnings per
share by $.04 and is expected to reduce 1997 earnings per share by $.10 to $.14.
REVPAR increased seven percent, due primarily to room rate increases of six
percent, and a slight increase in occupancy. Integration of RHG into the
Company's payroll, procurement, marketing and sales, and reservation processes
is progressing on schedule. In addition to the 150 properties acquired in the
RHG acquisition, the Company opened four Ramada International properties in
Germany, Japan and Indonesia during the quarter.

Limited-service brands represent about 20 percent of total lodging sales for the
second quarter and each of the brands increased REVPAR for the quarter.

  .  Residence Inn, the Company's quality extended-stay brand, posted a REVPAR
     increase of seven percent, due to an increase in average room rates of
     eight percent, to $95.47, offset by a slight decrease in occupancy to 87
     percent. Sales increased by 10 percent, primarily due to the addition of 43
     properties since the beginning of fiscal year 1996.

  .  Courtyard, the Company's moderate price lodging brand, achieved a nine
     percent increase in sales. Courtyard's average room rates increased eight
     percent with no change in

     occupancy, resulting in a REVPAR increase of eight percent. Sales and
     profits also reflect the addition of 64 units from the beginning of fiscal
     year 1996.

  .  Fairfield Inn and Suites, the Company's economy lodging brand, had an
     increase in sales of 10 percent over last year. While occupancy declined to
     79 percent for Company-operated units, average room rates increased by
     three percent resulting in flat REVPAR which reflects the impact of
     aggressive rate increases for the past three years and supply additions in
     this segment over the past several years. Sales also increased due to the
     addition of 87 units since the beginning of fiscal year 1996, including the
     Company's 300th unit in Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Marriott Vacation Club International sold approximately 5,700 timeshare
intervals in the second quarter representing an increase of 15 percent over the
prior year. The Company experienced very strong sales in several locations, and
is on schedule to commence sales at its new resort in Aruba later this year.
Increased profits from resort development were offset by minor operating losses
in Europe and start-up losses at the new Orlando golf institute and training
center.

CONTRACT SERVICES reported operating profit of $44 million on sales of $1,164
million, representing 16 percent and 21 percent increases, respectively, from
the second quarter of 1996.

Profit growth in the mid-teens for Marriott Management Services was paced by its
health care and corporate services groups. Health care was aided by new account
gains, and expansion of services to existing clients. Corporate services
benefited from increased catering sales and positive customer response to its
Crossroads Cuisines retail program. Results for the 1997 second quarter also
were favorably affected by contributions from food service and facilities
management contracts awarded by several major urban school districts in 1996.

Marriott Senior Living Services reported significant profit growth on sales
increases of 16 percent. Sales growth was due to the opening of 10 communities
since the second quarter of 1996, a two percentage point increase in occupancy
to 94 percent, and a four percent increase in per diem rates to $99. Operating
profit growth was a result of the increased sales and improved profitability for
the Forum communities. During the second quarter, the Company opened four new
assisted living communities, including the first two Village Oaks communities
developed for the moderate price market. The Village Oaks communities feature
the companion living concept, and can accommodate approximately 120 residents.
At the end of the quarter, the Company operated 79 communities totaling 15,700
units, and has 20 additional communities under construction. The Company is on
target to meet its goal of 200 communities by the year 2000.

Marriott Distribution Services' sales more than doubled due to the impact of the
new accounts added during 1996. Five new distribution centers were opened in
1996 and the first quarter of 1997 to service this new business. Profits were
lower in the 1997 quarter as a result of the start-up costs associated with
these new centers, and integration of new business into the operations.

CORPORATE ACTIVITY. Interest expense increased 48 percent over the second
quarter of 1996, despite lower effective interest rates, as the average debt
balance increased due to the acquisition of RHG. Interest income decreased from
$9 million to $6 million reflecting reduced loans receivable as a result of the
collection or sale of over $200 million of loans since the second quarter of
1996. Corporate expenses increased due to non-cash items associated with
investments generating significant income tax benefits as well as modest
staffing increases to accommodate growth and new business development. The
effective income tax rate increased from 39 percent to 39.5 percent reflecting
approximately a one percentage point increase due to nondeductible goodwill
amortization associated with the RHG acquisition, partially offset by credits
generated by tax related investments.

The Company reported net income of $160 million for the first two quarters, on
sales of $5,482 million. This represents a 16 percent increase in net income and
21 percent increase in sales over the same period in 1996. Earnings per share of
$1.18 for the period increased 16 percent over the corresponding 1996 period.
Excluding the impact of the RHG acquisition, net income and earnings per share
for the period were both up 20 percent on 17 percent sales growth.

LODGING operating profits were up 26 percent, on a sales increase of 19 percent.
The revenue increase resulted from REVPAR growth across all brands averaging
nine percent, the addition of 433 hotels since the beginning of 1996, together
with better weather and fewer holidays in the first quarter of 1997. This
revenue growth resulted in the Company earning higher base management and
franchise fees. Revenue growth also contributed to higher house profits which
resulted in higher incentive management fees. The following table is a summary
of year-to-date rate and occupancy statistics by brand.

/1/ Year-to-date 1996 statistics for REVPAR, occupancy and average room rates
have been adjusted to make them comparable to the 1997 statistics. Due to the
variations in the Company's fiscal year, which ends on the Friday closest to
December 31, the last week of calendar 1995 fell into the first quarter of 1996,
but the last week of calendar 1996 fell into the last quarter of 1996. The
adjusted year-to-date 1996 statistics are based on the same calendar days as the
1997 statistics. Comparable statistics are used throughout this discussion, and
are based on Company-operated U.S. properties. The Ramada International and New
World brands do not have any U.S. properties.

Sales for Marriott Hotels, Resorts and Suites comprised approximately 70 percent
of total lodging sales. Lodging sales for the first two quarters increased 10
percent over the same period in 1996 due to strong REVPAR growth and the
addition of 22 properties since the beginning of 1996. A 10 percent increase in
average room rate and no change in occupancy, generated a REVPAR increase of 10
percent. Profits increased as improved REVPAR generated higher base management
fees and higher house profits, resulting in increased incentive fees at many
hotels.

Ritz-Carlton reported an increase in average room rates of five percent and
occupancy increased four percentage points to 80 percent, resulting in an 11
percent increase in REVPAR.

The Company acquired RHG at the beginning of the second quarter of 1997. Please
see page 11 for discussion.

Limited-service brands represent about 20 percent of total lodging sales for the
first two quarters, and each of the brands increased REVPAR for this period. In
addition, the Company opened the first property under the TownePlace Suites
brand, which is designed to attract extended-stay travelers in the moderate
price range.

  .  Residence Inn posted a REVPAR increase of seven percent, due to an increase
     in average room rates of nine percent, to $95, offset by a decrease in
     occupancy to 85 percent. Sales growth in the period, of 12 percent, was
     also due to the addition of 43 properties since the beginning of fiscal
     year 1996, including its fourth property outside the U.S.

  .  Courtyard achieved a 10 percent increase in sales. Courtyard's average room
     rates increased eight percent, to $84, while occupancy dropped slightly to
     82 percent, resulting in a REVPAR increase of seven percent. Sales and
     profits also reflect the addition of 64 units from the beginning of fiscal
     year 1996. Courtyard opened its 300th unit in Fort Worth, Texas during this
     period and expanded its non-U.S. operations to 10 franchised Courtyard
     units in the United Kingdom.

  .  Fairfield Inn and Suites had an increase in sales of 11 percent over last
     year. The slight decline in occupancy, to 77 percent for Company-operated
     units, was offset by a three percent average room rate increase to $50,
     resulting in no change in REVPAR which reflects the impact of aggressive
     rate increases for the past three years and supply additions in this market
     over the past several years. Sales also increased due to the addition of 87
     units since the beginning of fiscal year 1996, including the Company's
     300th unit in Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Marriott Vacation Club International sold over 11,000 timeshare intervals in the
first two quarters representing an increase of nearly 26 percent over the prior
year. The Company's increase in sales resulted from very strong performance in
several locations, including its first European location in Marbella, Spain, as
well as Florida and South Carolina. Increased profits from resort development
were offset by reduced financing income, due to lower note sales in the first
quarter of 1997, and minor operating losses in Europe.

CONTRACT SERVICES reported operating profit of $85 million on sales of $2,318
million, representing 27 percent and 25 percent increases, respectively, from
the first two quarters

                                      14

of 1996. Excluding the impact of the Forum acquisition, sales and operating
profits for the twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 1997 would have increased by 22
percent and 12 percent, respectively over the prior year. This profit growth was
impacted by start-up losses for new senior living communities, new distribution
services accounts and recently opened distribution centers and the impact of the
sale-leaseback of four senior living communities in August 1996.

Marriott Management Services reported increased profits on a seven percent
increase in sales over the first two quarters of 1996. Increases in sales were
due to the increased number of operating days for higher education, school
services and corporate accounts during the period and improved weather, the
acquisition of Russell & Brand Limited, and increased sales on existing
accounts. Profit growth was due to positive response to the Crossroads Cuisine
retail program and cost control throughout the year.

Marriott Senior Living Services more than doubled profits on sales growth of
over 50 percent due to the acquisition of Forum in the second quarter of 1996.
In addition, occupancy rates increased three percentage points, to 94 percent
and average per diem rates also increased by four percent, to $99. Seven
properties opened in the first two quarters, including the Company's first
properties to feature special care centers for people with Alzheimer's and other
memory disorders, and the Company's first two Village Oaks communities.

Marriott Distribution Services more than doubled sales by adding several major
restaurant accounts, including Boston Market, Steak & Ale and Bennigans. Two new
distribution centers were opened in 1997, an increase of five since the second
quarter of last year. Profits declined due to the start-up costs at these new
centers and costs associated with integration of new business.

CORPORATE ACTIVITY. Interest expense increased 43 percent over the first two
quarters of 1996, despite lower effective interest rates, as the average debt
balance increased to finance the RHG acquisition. Interest income decreased from
$18 million to $11 million reflecting reduced loans receivable as a result of
the collection or sale of over $200 million of loans in the second half of 1996.
Corporate expenses increased due to non-cash items associated with investments
generating significant income tax benefits as well as modest staff increases to
accommodate growth and new business development. The effective income tax rate
increased from 39 percent to 39.5 percent reflecting approximately a one
percentage point increase due to nondeductible goodwill amortization associated
with the RHG acquisition, partially offset by credits generated by tax related
investments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and equivalents totaled $351 million at June 20, 1997, an increase of $83
million from year end. Cash provided by operations increased $6 million over the
first two quarters of 1996, to $293 million, as higher net income was offset by
working capital changes. EBITDA increased 22 percent to $400 million. EBITDA is
an indicative measure of the Company's operating performance which can be used
to measure the Company's ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and
expand its business. However, EBITDA is not an alternative to net income,
operating profit, cash from operations, or any other operating or liquidity
measure prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles.

Cash used in investing activities totaled $962 million for the first two
quarters of 1997, primarily consisting of the RHG acquisition and expenditures
for the construction of limited-service lodging properties and senior living
communities. Cash generated from dispositions of $183 million primarily included
$79 million from the sale of five Senior Living Services communities and $99
million from the sale-leaseback of 10 limited service hotels (the other four
properties discussed in note 3 to the financial statements will be sold during
the remainder of 1997). The Company expects that, over time, it will continue to
sell certain lodging and senior living service properties under development, or
to be developed, while continuing to operate them under long-term agreements.

The Company entered into a $400 million bank facility in February, 1997, which
along with the Company's pre-existing $1 billion revolving credit facility, was
replaced with a single $1.5 billion credit facility on March 27, 1997. This new
facility has a term of five years and bears interest at LIBOR plus a spread,
presently 21.5 basis points, based on the Company's senior debt rating.
Additionally, annual fees are paid on the total facility at a rate, presently 11
basis points, also based on the Company's senior debt rating. On June 20, 1997,
the Company had $584 million available under the facility.

The Company continues to grow its businesses, in part, by investing in new
units. The Company's principal investments will continue to include loans,
minority equity interests, business acquisitions and direct development and
ownership of certain lodging and senior living services projects. The Company
expects that cash generated by operations, together with its borrowing capacity
and proceeds from the sale of assets, will be sufficient to finance its planned
growth and capital requirements.

        hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each Holder the due
        and punctual payment of the principal of and interest (including any

                Marriott hereby agrees that its obligations under this Section
        12.7 shall be as if it were principal debtor and not merely surety, and
        shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of

        thereof or of the Indenture, the recovery of any judgment against RHG
        Finance or any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance with

<PAGE>
 
        otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
        guarantor. Marriott hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of
        payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or
        bankruptcy of RHG Finance, any right to require a proceeding first
        against RHG Finance, protest or notice with respect to such Securities
        or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and

        by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Securities,
        this Additional Guarantee and the Indenture. The Company hereby further

        the Securities or the Additional Guarantee as shall be required pursuant
        to Section 3.2 hereof.

        or this Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of Marriott set
        forth in this Section 12.7, which are absolute and unconditional.

                This Additional Guarantee shall be valid and effective upon
        execution and delivery of the First Supplemental Indenture by the
        parties thereto.

                        ------------
provisions contained in this First Supplemental Indenture shall for any reason
be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this
First Supplemental Indenture, which shall be construed as if such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained therein.

        Section 3.5   Paying Agents.
                      -------------

        Whenever RHG Finance shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the
Trustee, it will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee
an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the
provisions of this Section,

        (a) that it will hold all sums received by it as such agent for the
payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities (whether such sums
have been paid to it by RHG Finance or by any other obligor on the Securities)
in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities or of the Trustee,

        (b) that it will give the Trustee notice of any failure by RHG Finance
(or by any other obligor on the Securities) to make any payment of the principal
of or interest on the Securities when the same shall be due and payable, and

        (c) that it will pay any such sums so held in trust by it to the Trustee
upon the Trustee's written request at any time during the continuance of the
failure referred to in clause (b) above.

        RHG Finance will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of or
interest on the Securities, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to
pay such principal or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee)
RHG Finance will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action.

        If RHG Finance shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before
each due date of the principal of or interest on the Securities, set aside,
segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities a
sum sufficient to pay such principal or interest so becoming due. RHG Finance
will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action.

        Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, RHG Finance
may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all
sums held in trust by RHG Finance or any paying agent hereunder, as required by
this Section, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein
contained.

        Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement
to hold sums in trust as provided in this Section are subject to the provisions
of Sections 9.5 and 9.6.

                -------------------

        Except as described in Section 3.18, so long as any of the Securities
shall be Outstanding, Marriott will not create, assume or suffer to exist, or
permit any Restricted Subsidiary to create, assume or suffer to exist, any Lien
of or upon any (i) Principal Property of Marriott or any Restricted Subsidiary
or (ii) any shares of capital stock or Debt issued by any Restricted Subsidiary
and owned by Marriott or any Restricted Subsidiary, without making effective
provision whereby all of the Securities (together with, if Marriott shall so
determine, any other indebtedness or any other obligation of Marriott or such
Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created that is not
subordinate to the Securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or
prior to) any Debt thereby secured as long as such Debt shall be so secured;
provided that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to:

        (a)    Liens existing on the date of this Second Supplemental Indenture;

        (b)    Liens existing on (i) Principal Property at the time of

        (c)    Liens to secure Debt with respect to all or any part of the
Acquisition Cost or the Cost of Construction or improvement of one or more
Principal Properties acquired or constructed by Marriott or a Restricted
Subsidiary, provided such Debt is incurred and related Liens are created not
later than 24 months after acquisition or completion of construction (including
any improvements on an existing property), whichever is later, and such Debt
does not exceed the aggregate amount of the Acquisition Cost of all such
properties and/or the Cost of Construction thereof;

        (d)    Liens on shares of capital stock or Debt issued by one or more
Restricted Subsidiaries to secure Debt with respect to all or part of the
Acquisition Cost of such Restricted Subsidiary or Restricted Subsidiaries;
provided such Debt is incurred and related Liens are created not later than 24
months after the acquisition of such Restricted Subsidiary or Restricted
Subsidiaries and such Debt does not exceed the aggregate amount of the
Acquisition Cost of such Restricted Subsidiary or Restricted Subsidiaries;

        (e)    Liens in favor of any domestic or foreign government or
governmental body or any of their agencies and instrumentalities, to secure
partial progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute
or to secure any Debt incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of

subject to such Liens;

        (f)    in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary, Liens in favor of 
Marriott or another Restricted Subsidiary; and

        (g)    any extension, renewal or replacement, in whole or in part, 
of any Liens referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (f) or of any Debt
secured thereby,

                                       9

opinion of Marriott's Board of Directors) of the properties subject to such
extension, renewal or replacement plus (y) any costs incurred in connection
with such extension, renewal or replacement, and that such extension, renewal
or replacement of Liens shall be limited to properties which had previously

        Section 3.9     Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.  
                        ---------------------------------------------

        Except as described in Section 3.18, so long as any of the 
Securities shall be Outstanding, Marriott will not enter into, or permit any
Restricted Subsidiary to enter into, any arrangement with any lessor (other than
Marriott or a Restricted Subsidiary), providing for the leasing to Marriott or a
Restricted Subsidiary for a period of more than three years (including renewals
at the option of the lessee) of any Principal Property that has been or is to be
sold or transferred by Marriott or such Restricted Subsidiary to such lessor or
to any other Person, to which funds have been or are to be advanced by such
lessor or other Person on the security of the leased property (in this Article
Three called "Sale and Leaseback Transactions") unless either:

        (a)     Marriott or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled,
pursuant to Section 3.8, to create, assume or suffer to exist a Lien on the
property to be leased without equally and ratably securing the Securities, or

        (b)     Marriott within 240 days after the effective date of such 
Sale and Leaseback Transaction (whether made by Marriott or a Restricted
Subsidiary) applies to the retirement, repayment or other discharge of the
Securities, or Debt ranking on a parity with the Additional Guarantee, an amount
not less than (x) the greater of (i) the net cash proceeds of the sale of the
property leased pursuant to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction or (ii) the fair
market value (in the opinion of Marriott's Board of Directors) of such property
at the time of entering into such Sale and Leaseback Transaction less (y) the
fair market value (in the opinion of Marriott's Board of Directors) of any non-
cash proceeds of the sale of such property provided, that, such non-cash
proceeds shall be considered "Principal Property" acquired on the date the
property sold in the Sale and Leaseback Transaction was acquired by Marriott or
any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of Sections 3.8 and 3.9.

        Section 3.10    Company Merger or Consolidation.  The Company 
                        -------------------------------
covenants that it shall not consolidate with or merge into another Person, or
convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety
to, any Person (the "Successor Person") if such Successor Person is not
organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States, any State
thereof or the District of Columbia or The Netherlands, unless:

                (I)     the Successor Person shall expressly agree by 
        supplemental indenture (A) to indemnify the Holder of each Security
        against (1) any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon such
        Holder or required to be withheld or

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
        deducted from any payment to such Holder as a consequence of such
        consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, and (2) any costs
        or expenses of the act of such consolidation, merger, conveyance,
        transfer or lease, and (B) that all payments pursuant to the Securities
        or the Guarantees in respect of the principal of and interest on the
        Securities, as the case may be, shall be made without withholding or
        deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties,
        assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied
        by or on behalf of the jurisdiction of organization of the Successor
        Person or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
        therein, unless such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges
        are required by such jurisdiction or any such subdivision or authority
        to be withheld or deducted, in which case the Successor Person will pay
        by way of additional interest such additional amounts of, or in respect
        of, principal and interest ("Successor Additional Amounts") as will
                                     ----------------------------
        result (after deduction of such taxes, duties, assessments or
        governmental charges and any additional taxes, duties, assessments or
        governmental charges payable in respect of such) in the payment to each
        Holder of a Security of the amounts which would have been payable
        pursuant to the Securities or the Guarantees, as the case may be, had no
        such withholding or deduction been required, except that no Successor
        Additional Amounts shall be so payable for or on account of:

                        (1)     any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental
                charge which would not have been imposed but for the fact that
                such Holder:

                                (a) was a resident, domiciliary or national of,
                        or engaged in business or maintained a permanent
                        establishment or was physically present in, the
                        jurisdiction of organization of the Successor Person or
                        otherwise had some connection with the jurisdiction of
                        organization of the Successor Person other than the mere
                        ownership of, or receipt of payment under, such Security
                        or Guarantee;

                                (b) presented such Security or Guarantee for
                        payment in the jurisdiction of organization of the
                        Successor Person, unless such Security or Guarantee
                        could not have been presented for payment elsewhere; or

                                (c) presented such Security or Guarantee more
                        than thirty (30) days after the date on which the
                        payment in respect of such Security or Guarantee first
                        became due and payable or provided for, whichever is
                        later, except to the extent that the Holder would have
                        been entitled to such Successor Additional Amounts if it
                        had presented such Security or Guarantee for payment on
                        any day within such period of thirty (30) days;

                        (2)     any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, 
                personal property or similar tax, assessment or other
                governmental charge;

                (3)     any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental 
        charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction 
        from payments of (or in respect of) principal of or interest on the
        Securities or the Guarantees;

                (4)     any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental
        charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure to comply by
        the Holder or the beneficial owner of a Security with a request of the
        Successor Person, RHG Finance or the Company, as the case may be,
        addressed to the Holder (a) to provide information concerning the
        nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial
        owner or (b) to make any declaration or other similar claim or satisfy
        any information or reporting requirement, which, in the case of (a) or
        (b), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or
        administrative practice of the taxing jurisdiction as a precondition to
        exemption from all or part of such tax, duty, assessment or other
        governmental charge; or

                (5)     any combination of items (1), (2), (3) and (4 );

nor shall Successor Additional Amounts be paid with respect to any payment
of the principal of or interest on any such Security to any Holder who is a
fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such
payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the
jurisdiction of organization of the Successor Person (or any taxing authority
thereof or therein) to be included in the income for tax purposes of a
beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such
partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such
Additional Amounts of interest had it been the Holder of the Security; 

                                      or

        (II)    Marriott in its sole discretion expressly agrees by supplemental
indenture to assume all obligations otherwise applicable to a Successor Person
pursuant to Subsection 3.10(I) above, in which case no supplemental indenture
as referenced in such Subsection 3.10(I) shall be required of a Successor
Person in connection with a consolidation, merger or conveyance, transfer or
lease of assets of the Company to a Person that is not organized and validly
existing under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District
of Columbia or The Netherlands, and none of the provisions of Subsection
3.10(I) shall be applicable to such Successor Person.  

        In connection with the execution and delivery of any supplemental 
indenture pursuant to this Section 3.10, the Successor Person (with respect to a
supplemental indenture pursuant to Subsection 3.10(I)) or Marriott (with respect
to a supplemental indenture pursuant to Subsection 3.10(II)) shall deliver to
the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such
supplemental indenture complies with the applicable provisions of this
Indenture, and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to
such transaction have been complied with.

        cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force
        and effect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and
        franchises; provided, however, that Marriott shall not be required to
        preserve any such right or franchise if Marriott shall determine that
        the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
        business of Marriott.

        create, assume or suffer to exist Liens or enter into Sale and Leaseback
        Transactions not otherwise permitted as contained in Sections 3.8 and
        3.9, provided that at the time of such event, and after giving effect
        thereto, the sum of outstanding Debt secured by such Liens plus all
        Attributable Debt in respect of such Sale and Leaseback Transactions
        entered into, measured in each case, at the time any Lien is incurred or

        Subsidiary which is secured by a Lien on Principal Property of Marriott
        or any Restricted Subsidiary or capital stock or Debt issued by any
        Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the
        lesser of (i) the amount of such Debt or (ii) the fair market value (in
        the opinion of Marriott's Board of Directors) of the property of
        Marriott and its Restricted Subsidiaries which is encumbered by such
        Lien.

        least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
        shall, by act of such Holders (pursuant to Section 6.1), either waive
        such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such
        term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or
        affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent expressly
        so waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the
        obligations of Marriott and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any
        such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

                Marriott or any Restricted Subsidiary would become subject to a

        shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other
        Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such
        notice may be waived in writing by the person entitled to receive such
        notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the
        equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed
        with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to
        the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

                In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in
        regular mail service, it shall be impracticable to mail notice to RHG
        Finance, the Company, Marriott and Securityholders when such notice is
        required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then
        any matter of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee
        shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

For the purpose of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges as
prescribed by the rules and regulations of the Commission, earnings represents
income before cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, plus, when
applicable, (a) taxes on such income, (b) fixed charges, and (c) the Company's
equity interest in losses of certain 50%-or-less-owned-affiliates; less (x)
undistributed earnings of 50%-or-less-owned-affiliates, and (y) interest
capitalized.  Fixed charges represent interest (including amounts capitalized),
amortization of deferred financing costs, the portion of rental expense deemed
representative of interest and, when applicable, the Company's share of the
interest expense of certain 50%-or-less-owned-affiliates.

                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this
report or presented elsewhere by management.

Dependence on Others: The Company's present growth strategy for development of
additional lodging and senior living facilities entails entering into and
maintaining various arrangements with present and future property owners,
including Host Marriott Corporation and New World Development Company Limited.
There can be no assurance that any of the Company's current strategic
arrangements will be continued, or that the Company will be able to enter into
future collaborations.

Contract Terms for New Units: The terms of the operating contracts,
distribution agreements, franchise agreements and leases for each of the
Company's lodging facilities, retirement communities, and contract service units
are influenced by contract terms offered by the Company's competitors at the
time such agreements are entered into. Accordingly, there can be no assurance
that contracts entered into or renewed in the future will be on terms that are
as favorable to the Company as those under existing agreements.

Competition:  The profitability of hotels, vacation timeshare resorts,
retirement communities, food service and facilities management accounts and
distribution centers operated by the Company is subject to general economic
conditions, competition, the desirability of particular locations, the
relationship between supply of and demand for hotel rooms, vacation timeshare
resorts, senior living facilities, food services, facilities management and
distribution services, and other factors.  The Company generally operates in
markets that contain numerous competitors and the continued success of the
Company will be dependent, in large part, upon the ability to compete in such
areas as access, location, quality of accommodations, amenities, specialized
services, cost containment and, to a lesser extent, the quality and scope of
food and beverage services and facilities.

Supply and Demand: During the 1980s, construction of lodging facilities
in the United States resulted in an excess supply of available rooms, and the
oversupply had an adverse effect on occupancy levels and room rates in the
industry. Although industry conditions have improved, the lodging industry may
be adversely affected in the future by (i) international, national and regional
economic conditions, (ii) changes in travel patterns, (iii) taxes and government
regulations which influence or determine wages, prices, interest rates,
construction procedures and costs, and (iv) the availability of capital. The
Company's timeshare and senior living services businesses are also subject to
the same or similar uncertainties and, accordingly, there can be no assurance
that the present level of demand for timeshare intervals and senior living
communities will continue, or that there will not be an increase in the supply
of competitive units, which could reduce the prices at which the Company is able
to sell or rent units.

Effect of Acquisitions: The benefit to the Company of acquisitions such as RHG
depends, in part, on the Company's ability to integrate the acquired businesses
into existing operations. Such integration may be more difficult, costly and
time consuming than anticipated.
