* Effective as of April 9, 1999, the Sodexho Savings Plus Plan (the "Plan") was
merged into the Sodexho Marriott Services, Inc. 401(k) Employees' Retirement
Savings Plan and Trust. As a result, interests in the Plan which constituted
securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
(registered on Form S-8, SEC file number 333-63861) no longer exist. Therefore,
this Form 15 has been filed to suspend the Plan's duty to file reports under
Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
