Items 1 & 2. Business and Properties

Introduction

We are a self-managed and self-administered real estate investment trust or
REIT that owns full-service hotel properties. As of March 1, 2002, we own 122
hotels representing approximately 58,000 rooms located throughout North
America. Most of our hotels are operated under brand names that are among the
most respected and widely recognized in the lodging industry--including the
Marriott, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hilton, Hyatt and Swissotel brand names.

Our primary business objective is to provide superior total returns to our
shareholders through a combination of dividends, appreciation in net asset
value per share, and growth in funds from operations, or FFO, by focusing on
aggressive asset management and disciplined capital allocation. FFO is defined
by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts as net income
computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of
properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after
adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

We were formed in 1998 as a Maryland corporation as part of the conversion
of Host Marriott, a Delaware corporation, as a REIT. As part of this REIT
conversion, and Host Marriott's desire to re-incorporate in Maryland, we merged
with Host Marriott and retained the name. We conduct our operations as an
umbrella partnership REIT through our direct and indirect subsidiaries,
including Host Marriott, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership of which we are
the sole general partner and in which we hold approximately 92% of the
interests.

In this report, we refer to ourselves (excluding our subsidiaries) as "Host
REIT," to our predecessor Host Marriott, a Delaware corporation, as "Host
Marriott," and to Host Marriott, L.P. as the "operating partnership" or "Host
LP."

The address of our principal executive office is 10400 Fernwood Road,
Bethesda, Maryland, 20817. Our phone number is 301-380-9000.

The Lodging Industry

The lodging industry in the United States consists of both private and
public entities, which operate in an extremely diversified market under a
variety of brand names. Competition in the industry is based primarily on the
level of service, quality of accommodations, convenience of locations and room
rates. In order to cater to a wide variety of tastes and needs, the lodging
industry is broadly segmented into six categories: luxury, upper-upscale,
upscale, midscale (with and without food and beverage service) and economy.
Most of our hotels operate in urban markets in either the luxury lodging
segment (represented by such brand names as Ritz-Carlton and Four Seasons) and
the upper-upscale lodging segment (represented by such brand names as Marriott,
Hilton, Hyatt, Swissotel, Crowne Plaza, Doubletree, Renaissance and Westin).
Although the competitive position of each of our hotel properties varies by
market, we believe that our properties compare favorably to their competitive
set in their respective markets.

A common measure used by the industry to evaluate the operations of a hotel
is "Revenue per available room," or "RevPAR," which is defined as the product
of the average daily room rate charged and the average daily occupancy
achieved. RevPAR does not include food and beverage or other ancillary revenues
such as parking, telephone or other guest services generated by the property.
The lodging industry experienced significant RevPAR declines in 2001 compared
to 2000 due to the sluggish economy that was intensified by the September 11,
2001 terrorist attacks. We believe that the lodging industry will continue to
experience RevPAR declines at least through the first half of 2002. From 1991
through 1997, the upper-upscale sector of the lodging industry benefited from a
favorable supply/demand imbalance, driven in part by low construction levels
combined with high gross domestic product, or GDP, growth. However, beginning
in 1998, supply has

2



moderately outpaced demand, causing slight declines in occupancy rates in the
sector in which we operate, although room rates continued to increase through
2000. The relative balance between supply and demand growth in the industry and
the segments in which we operate may be influenced by a number of factors,
including growth of the economy, interest rates, unique local considerations
and the relatively long lead time to develop urban, convention and resort
hotels. The current amount of excess supply growth in the upper-upscale and
luxury portions of the full-service segment of the lodging industry has been
much less severe than that experienced in the lodging industry in other
economic downturns. Growth in room supply in the upper-upscale sector continued
in 2001, while room demand declined during the year. We believe that during
2002, the rate of supply growth will begin to decrease as the lack of
availability of development financing slows new construction. However, demand
decreased substantially in 2001 because of the economic recession, and the
decline was deepened by the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. We believe
that demand will remain below historical levels at least during the first half
of 2002, but should begin to grow toward the end of 2002 and continue in 2003
if the economy strengthens.

According to Smith Travel Research, RevPAR for hotels operating in the
upper-upscale and luxury segments decreased 12% for the year ended December 31,
2001 when compared to the year ended December 31, 2000. This decrease resulted
from decreases in occupancy and average daily rate for this period of 10% and
2%, respectively. Our portfolio of hotels has experienced an overall decline in
RevPAR that is consistent with the results of our segment as a whole.

Business Strategy

Our primary business objective is to provide superior total returns to our
shareholders through a combination of dividends, appreciation in net asset
value per share, and growth in FFO, a frequently used measure in the real
estate industry. In order to achieve this objective we employ the following
strategies:

. we acquire existing upper-upscale and luxury full-service hotels as
market conditions permit, including hotels operated by leading
management companies which satisfy our investment criteria such as
Marriott, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hyatt, and Hilton. Such
acquisitions may be completed through various means including
transactions involving entities in which we are already a partner,
public and private portfolio transactions, single asset transactions,
and by entering into joint ventures when we believe our return on
investment will be maximized by doing so;

. we seek to maximize the value of our existing portfolio through
aggressive asset management, by working with the managers of our hotels
to reduce the operating costs of our hotels and increase revenues, as
well as by completing selective capital improvements and expansions that
are designed to improve operations;

. we selectively expand existing properties and develop new upper-upscale
and luxury full-service hotels operated by leading management companies
that we believe satisfy our investment criteria and employ transaction
structures which mitigate our risk; and

. we seek to recycle capital through opportunistic asset sales and
selective disposal of non-core assets, including older assets with
significant capital needs, assets that are at a competitive risk given
potential new supply, or assets in slower-growth markets.

Our acquisition strategy focuses on hotels operating in the upper-upscale
and luxury full-service segments of the market. We believe these market
segments will continue to offer opportunities over time to acquire assets at
attractive multiples of cash flow and at discounts to replacement value. Our
acquisition criteria continues to focus on:

. properties in locations that are difficult to duplicate with high costs
for market entry by prospective competitors, such as hotels located in
urban, airport and resort/convention locations;

3



. properties operated under premium brand names, such as Marriott,
Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hilton, and Hyatt; and

. underperforming hotels that can be improved by conversion to high
quality brands;

We believe we are well-qualified to pursue our acquisition and development
strategy. Management has extensive experience in acquiring and financing
lodging properties and believes its industry knowledge, relationships and
access to market information provide a competitive advantage with respect to
identifying, evaluating and acquiring lodging properties, as well as improving
and maintaining the quality of the hotel assets.

Our acquisition efforts since 1998 have been limited and primarily focused
on acquiring the interests of limited or joint venture partners, consolidating
our ownership of assets already included in the portfolio and purchasing the
lessee interests that were created as part of our REIT conversion. We are
exploring acquisitions with an emphasis on transactions that can be
accomplished, at least in part, through the issuance of operating partnership
units such that our overall debt ratios are improved. Recently, our
acquisitions have been limited due to the lack of availability of suitable
candidates that complement our portfolio of upper-upscale and luxury hotels and
provide an attractive return on our investments, increased price competition
for upper-upscale and luxury hotels, and capital limitations due to weak equity
markets for REIT stocks.We expect that lack of liquidity will ultimately cause
some property owners to make some of their properties available for sale;
however, the timing of these potential sales is uncertain. We believe that
acquisitions that meet our criteria will provide the highest and best use of
our capital.

Our asset management team, which consists of professionals with extensive
industry knowledge and relationships, focuses on maximizing the value of our
existing portfolio through working with our managers to reduce operating costs
at our hotels and to provide economic incentives to individual and business
travelers in selected markets in order to increase demand; monitoring property
and brand performance; pursuing expansion and repositioning opportunities;
overseeing capital expenditure budgets and forecasts; assessing return on
investment expenditure opportunities; and analyzing competitive supply
conditions in each market.

In addition to acquiring and maintaining superior assets, a key part of our
strategy is to have the hotels managed by leading management companies. As of
March 1, 2002, 101 of our 122 properties were managed by subsidiaries of
Marriott International as Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brand hotels and an
additional eight hotels are part of Marriott International's full-service hotel
system through franchise agreements. The remaining hotels are managed by
leading management companies including Four Seasons, Hyatt and Swissotel. In
general, we believe that these premium brands have consistently outperformed
the industry. Demonstrating the strength of our portfolio, our comparable
properties, consisting of 116 hotels, owned directly or indirectly by us for
the entire 2001 and 2000 fiscal years (excluding nine hotels with
non-comparable operating environments as a result of acquisitions,
dispositions, property damage, and expansion and development projects),
generated 24% and 26% RevPAR premiums over other similar brands in the
upper-upscale and luxury segment for fiscal years 2001 and 2000, respectively,
based on information from Smith Travel Research.

Operating Structure

We are managed by our board of directors and executive officers. We have no
employees who are not also employees of the operating partnership. Together
with the operating partnership, we continue, in an UPREIT structure, the
full-service hotel ownership business formerly conducted by Host Marriott and
its subsidiaries. We are the sole general partner of the operating partnership
and manage all aspects of the business of the operating partnership. This
includes decisions with respect to sales and purchases of hotels, the financing
of the operating partnership and its assets, the leasing of the hotels, and
capital expenditures for the hotels subject to the terms of the leases and the
management agreements. All of our hotels are owned by the operating partnership
or one or more of its subsidiaries.

Host Marriott and its subsidiaries and affiliates consummated a series of
transactions in order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for
the fiscal year beginning January 1, 1999 (a process which we refer to as the
REIT conversion). During 1998, Host Marriott reorganized its hotels and certain
other assets so that they were owned by the operating partnership and its
subsidiaries. Host Marriott and its subsidiaries received a number of operating
partnership interests, or OP Units, equal to the number of then outstanding
shares of Host Marriott common stock, and the operating partnership and its
subsidiaries assumed substantially all of the liabilities of Host Marriott and
its subsidiaries. As a result of this reorganization, we are the sole general
partner in the operating partnership. OP Units owned by holders other than us
are redeemable at the option of the holders, generally commencing one year
after the issuance of their OP Units. Upon redemption of an OP Unit, a holder
would receive cash from the operating partnership in an amount equal to the
market value of one share of our common stock. However, in lieu of a cash
redemption by the operating partnership, we have the right to acquire any OP
Unit offered for redemption directly from the holder thereof in exchange for
one share of our common stock. As of December 31, 2001, we owned approximately
92% of the outstanding OP Units of Host LP.

Due to certain tax laws restricting REITs from deriving revenues directly
from the operations of hotels, as part of the REIT conversion, our hotel
properties were leased by the operating partnership and its subsidiaries to
third party lessees that, in turn, assumed or entered into agreements with
Marriott International and other hotel operators to conduct the day-to-day
management of the hotels. During 1999 and 2000, approximately 95% of our hotels
were leased to Crestline Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries.

The REIT Modernization Act, which was enacted in December 1999, amended the
tax laws to permit REITs, effective January 1, 2001, to lease hotels to a
subsidiary that qualifies as a taxable REIT subsidiary, and to own all of the
voting stock of such subsidiary. The earnings of the taxable REIT subsidiary
are subject to normal corporate level federal and state income taxes.

Effective January 1, 2001, a wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary of Host
LP, HMT Lessee LLC (the "TRS") acquired from Crestline the equity interests in
the lessees of 112 of our hotels and the leasehold interests in four hotels for
$207 million in cash, including approximately $6 million of legal fees and
transfer taxes. In connection with that transaction, we recorded a
non-recurring, pre-tax loss related to the termination of the leases for
financial reporting purposes of $207 million during the fourth quarter of 2000,
net of an $82 million tax benefit which we have recorded as a deferred tax
asset, because for income tax purposes, the transaction is recorded as an
acquisition of leasehold interests that will be amortized over the remaining
term of the leases.

During June 2001, we completed two other transactions, which resulted in the
acquisition by the TRS of our remaining four leases held by third parties.
Effective June 16, 2001, we acquired the lease for the San Diego Marriott Hotel
and Marina by purchasing the lessee equity interest from Crestline for $2.7
million net of an income tax benefit of $1.8 million. Also in June 2001, in
connection with the acquisition from Wyndham International, Inc. of the
minority limited partnership interests in five partnerships holding seven
hotels, we acquired the leases for three hotels: the San Diego Marriott Mission
Valley, the Minneapolis Marriott Southwest, and the Albany Marriott.

Prior to the effectiveness of the REIT Modernization Act, the operating
partnership held a 95% non-voting interest in two taxable subsidiaries,
Rockledge Hotel Properties, Inc. ("Rockledge") and Fernwood Hotel Assets, Inc.
("Fernwood"), that held assets in which, under REIT rules, we could not own a
controlling interest. As a result of the effectiveness of the REIT
Modernization Act, we were able to acquire the remaining 5% economic interest
and 100% of the voting interest in these subsidiaries for $2 million. The
purchase was consummated in April of 2001, and, as a result, we now consolidate
these subsidiaries.

The acquisition of the leases through taxable REIT subsidiaries enables us
to better control our portfolio of hotels and was accretive to our earnings and
cash flow. There can be no guarantee, however, that we will benefit


5



from similar favorable results in the future. Further, on a consolidated basis
our results of operations will reflect the revenues and expenses, including
taxes paid by the taxable REIT subsidiaries, generated by these hotels rather
than rental income.

We also consolidate seven entities in which we have a controlling financial
interest. At December 31, 2001, these entities own, in the aggregate 8 hotels,
with $842 million in assets, and $400 million in debt, all of which is
non-recourse to Host Marriott. Our ownership in these entities varies from
50.5% to 97.5%.

Lodging Property Portfolio

Overview. Our lodging portfolio, as of March 1, 2002, consists of 122
upper-upscale and luxury full-service hotels containing approximately 58,000
rooms. Our hotel lodging properties represent quality upper-upscale and luxury
assets in the full-service segment and are operated under various premium
brands including Marriott, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hyatt, and Swissotel.

The following chart details our portfolio by brand:



Number of
Brand Hotels Rooms
----- --------- ------

Marriott managed... 91 46,383
Marriott franchised 8 2,321
Ritz-Carlton....... 10 3,831

Swissotel.......... 4 1,970
Four Seasons....... 2 608
Other brands....... 3 682
--- ------
122 58,009
=== ======


Our hotels average approximately 475 rooms. Twelve of our hotels have more
than 750 rooms. Hotel facilities typically include meeting and banquet
facilities, a variety of restaurants and lounges, swimming pools, gift shops
and parking facilities. Our hotels primarily serve business and pleasure
travelers and group meetings at locations that are generally well situated with
significant barriers to entry by competitors. These locations include downtown
areas of major metropolitan cities, airports and resort/convention locations
where there are limited or no development sites and suburban areas near
business corridors. The average age of the properties is 18 years, although
many of the properties have had substantial renovations or major additions.

To maintain the overall quality of our lodging properties, each property
undergoes refurbishments and capital improvements on a regularly scheduled
basis. Typically, refurbishing has been provided at intervals of five years,
based on an annual review of the condition of each property. For fiscal years
2001, 2000 and 1999 we spent $230 million, $271 million and $211 million,
respectively, on capital improvements to existing properties. As a result of
these expenditures, we expect to maintain high-quality rooms, restaurants and
meeting facilities at our properties. During the current economic downturn we
are conserving funds by temporarily suspending certain major capital
expenditures.

Acquisitions. Recently, our acquisitions have been limited due to the lack
of availability of suitable candidates that complement our portfolio of
upper-upscale and luxury hotels and provide an attractive return on our
investments, increased price competition for upper-upscale and luxury hotels,
and capital limitations due to weak equity markets for REIT stocks. During the
three-year period from 1996 through 1998, we acquired 77 full-service hotels,
but since 1998 our acquisitions have primarily focused on acquiring the
interests of limited or joint venture partners, consolidating our ownership of
assets already included in the portfolio and repurchasing the lessee interests
that were created as part of our REIT conversion. We believe that acquisitions
that meet our criteria will provide the highest and best use of our capital.

6



During 2001, we acquired outstanding minority interests in seven hotels from
Wyndham for $60 million. In addition, we acquired the voting interests
representing 5% of the equity interests in two previously non-controlled
subsidiaries for approximately $2 million. During 2000, we acquired a
non-controlling partnership interest in JWDC Limited Partnership, which owns
the 772-room J.W. Marriott Hotel in Washington, D.C., for $40 million and have
the option to purchase the outstanding interests beginning in 2002. Also during
2000, we invested with Marriott International in the Courtyard joint venture
described in "Business and Properties--Other Real Estate Investments." During
1999, our acquisitions were limited to the purchase of minority interests in
two hotels where we had previously acquired the controlling interests, for a
total consideration of approximately $14 million.

Through subsidiaries we currently own four Canadian and two Mexican
properties, with 2,548 rooms. International acquisitions are limited due to the
difficulty in meeting our stringent return criteria. However, we intend to
continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities in Canada and other
international locations. We will acquire international properties only when we
believe such acquisitions offer satisfactory returns after adjustments for
currency and country risks.

Dispositions. We will also consider from time to time selling hotels that
do not fit our long-term strategy or otherwise meet our ongoing investment
criteria, including, for example, hotels in some smaller or slower growth
markets, hotels that require significant future capital improvements and other
underperforming assets. We typically reinvest the net proceeds from any
property sales into upper-upscale and luxury hotels more consistent with our
strategy or otherwise apply such net proceeds in a manner consistent with our
investment strategy (which has included open market purchases of our common
stock, our convertible redeemable preferred securities and other securities).
Under the terms of our amended bank credit facility, which we entered into in
late 2001, we are required to use the net proceeds from any sale of hotel
properties to repay amounts due, if any, under our bank credit facility. As of
March 1, 2002, we have no borrowings under our credit facility. The following
table summarizes our dispositions from January 1, 1999 through March 1, 2002
(in millions, except number of rooms):



Pre-tax

During January 2002, we transferred one of our non-core properties, the St.
Louis Marriott Pavilion hotel, to the mortgage lender. Due to the original
management agreement and debt structure of this partnership, we had not been
receiving any cash flow after payments of debt service from this property. In
the first quarter, we will write off the remaining $13 million of property and
equipment, eliminate $37 million of mortgage debt and related liabilities and
record a non-cash gain of approximately $22 million.

Development Projects. During 2000 and 2001, we focused our energies on
increasing the value of our current portfolio with selective investments,
expansions at existing hotels and a limited amount of new development projects.
Concurrent with the slowdown in the economy, we had evaluated the timing and
size of many of our capital projects. For 2001, we had anticipated spending
approximately $350 million in total capital expenditures, including $225
million in replacement and renewal expenditures. Subsequent to September 11,

7



however, we temporarily suspended certain major capital expenditures. As a
result of the actions taken, our capital expenditures for 2001, not including
new investments such as the Ritz-Carlton, Naples Golf Resort, were $230
million. Based on expected business conditions, we anticipate that our capital
spending will be approximately $185 million in 2002. Over the past three years,
our capital spending has focused on properly maintaining and enhancing the
values of our existing hotels. As a result of the regular attention we have
paid to maintaining our assets at a high standard and the high quality of our
assets, we believe that these capital reductions are achievable during this
period without materially affecting the long-term value of our portfolio. For
the four-year period beginning in 1998, we have spent $1.3 billion on capital
expenditures, including $798 million in replacement and renewal expenditures.
As the industry recovers, we plan to continue our strategy of pursuing capital
expenditure projects designed to enhance the value of our hotels.

In January 2002, we opened the 295-room Ritz-Carlton, Naples Golf Resort,
which is approximately 2 miles from our existing Ritz-Carlton, Naples hotel, at
a development cost of approximately $75 million. The golf resort has 15,000
square-feet of meeting space, four food and beverage outlets, and full access
to 36 holes of a Greg Norman-designed golf course surrounding the hotel. The
newly created golf resort, as well as the 50,000 square-foot world-class
beachfront spa facility, which opened in April 2001 at a cost of $26 million,
will operate in concert with the 463-room Ritz-Carlton, Naples and will offer
travelers an unmatched resort experience. Further, given the close proximity of
the properties to each other, we hope to benefit from cost efficiencies and the
ability to capture larger groups.

Also, during June 2001, we completed the addition of a 20,000 square foot
oceanfront spa to the Marriott Harbor Beach Resort at a development cost of $8
million.

During 2000, we completed construction of a 717-room full-service Marriott
hotel adjacent to the convention center in downtown Tampa, Florida. The hotel
(completed at a development cost of approximately $104 million, excluding a $16
million tax subsidy by the City of Tampa, Florida) opened for business on
February 19, 2000 and includes 45,000 square feet of meeting space, three
restaurants and a 30-slip marina as well as many other amenities.

At the Orlando World Center Marriott Resort, the addition of a 500-room
tower and 15,000 square feet of meeting space was placed in service in June
2000 at an approximate development cost of $88 million, making this hotel the
largest in the Marriott system with 2,000 rooms and over 200,000 square feet of
meeting space. We have also renovated the property's golf course, added a
multi-level parking deck, and upgraded and expanded several restaurants.

We also accomplished various projects to enhance revenues, control expenses
and enhance technology at the hotels. In 2001, we reached an agreement with a
national parking management company to act as an advisor to us regarding
methods to maximize revenues from the parking facilities throughout our entire
portfolio. During 2000, we added approximately 36,000 square feet of new
meeting space and 200 premium-priced rooms to the portfolio, and approved new
parking contracts at four of our properties. We authorized utility conservation
efforts including energy management strategies at five properties, the closing
of several unprofitable food and beverage outlets, and the development of a
program to review labor models. We also approved and implemented internet
connectivity solutions and in-room portal and entertainment options to better
meet the technology needs of our customers.

Our properties have reported annual increases in RevPAR in every year since
1993 except the year just ended. Based upon data provided by Smith Travel
Research, our comparable properties have an approximate 6 and 7 percentage
point occupancy premium for fiscal years 2001 and 2000, respectively, and an
approximate 24% and 26% RevPAR premium over similar brands in the upper-upscale
and luxury segments for fiscal years 2001 and 2000, respectively. We believe
the hotel brands in the upper-upscale and luxury full-service segment that are
most representative of our overall portfolio of full-service hotels are Ritz
Carlton; Marriott; Four Seasons; Crowne Plaza; Doubletree; Hyatt; Hilton;
Radisson; Renaissance; Sheraton; Westin; and Wyndham.

Historically, our hotels have experienced relatively high occupancy rates,
which along with strong demand for full-service hotel rooms have allowed the
managers of our hotels to increase average daily room rates by selectively
raising room rates for certain types of bookings and by minimizing, in
specified cases, discounted group business. For the year ended December 31,
2001, as a percentage of total rooms sold, transient business comprised 58% and
group business, including contract business, comprised 42%.

The occupancy rates and average daily rates commanded by our properties in
2001 and 2000 exceeded both the industry as a whole and the upper-upscale and
luxury full-service segment. The attractive locations of our hotels, the
limited availability of new building sites for new construction of competing
full-service hotels, and the lack of availability of financing for new
full-service hotels has allowed us to maintain RevPAR and average daily rate
premiums over our competitors in these service segments. For our comparable
hotels, average daily rates increased 6.3% in 2000. The increase in average
daily rate helped generate a strong increase in comparable hotel RevPAR of 6.6%
for the same period. However, for 2001, operations for our comparable
properties declined with average occupancy and RevPAR decreasing 7.7 percentage
points and 13.0%, respectively. Furthermore, because our lodging operations
have a high fixed-cost component, increases/decreases in RevPAR generally yield
greater percentage increases/decreases in our earnings and cash flows. As a
result of the decline in operations in 2001, we have been working with our
managers to achieve cost reductions at the properties that have slowed the
decrease in operating margins. These cost reduction efforts have been
accelerated since the events of September 11. The efforts were successful based
on the ratio of RevPAR to EBITDA calculated for both the year and the fourth
quarter. While RevPAR declined 28% for the fourth quarter, margins were only
down 5.0 percentage points, resulting in a ratio of RevPAR to EBITDA decline of
only 1.4 times. Similarly, while RevPAR declined 13% for the full year, margins
were only down 2.9 percentage points, resulting in a ratio of RevPAR to EBITDA
decline of only 1.5 times. Although some of these savings will not be
permanent, we do believe that we have achieved meaningful long-term
efficiencies. Also, as a result of our acquisition in 2001 of the lessee
entities and/or leasehold interests, changes in earnings and cash flow at those
properties now have a direct effect on our consolidated earnings and cash
flows. See "Business and Properties--Operating Structure."

The economic trends affecting the hotel industry and the overall economy
will be a major factor in the company's ability to generate growth in hotel
revenues. Additionally, the abilities of the managers to curb operating costs
while continuing to maintain high quality hotels will have a material impact on
future hotel level sales and operating profit growth. If the current economic
conditions continue, operations may decline further in 2002.

Foreign Operations. During 2000 and 1999, our foreign operations consisted
of four full-service hotel properties located in Canada. Effective in the
second quarter of 2001, with the acquisition of a controlling voting interest
in Rockledge, we own a controlling interest in a partnership that owns two
full-service hotel properties in Mexico and, as a result, began consolidating
the operations of those hotel properties. During 2001, 2000, and 1999,
respectively, 98% of total revenues were attributed to sales within the United
States, and the remaining 2% of total revenues were attributed to foreign
countries.

Competition. We compete with other hotel owners through the ownership of
premium branded hotels in downtown/urban, airport, and resort locations. Our
competitors include Starwood Hotels and Resorts, Hilton Hotel Corporation,
Wyndham International, FelCor Lodging Trust, and MeriStar Hospitality
Corporation.

10



We believe that our properties will continue to enjoy competitive advantages
arising from their participation in the Marriott, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons,
Hilton, Hyatt and Swissotel hotel brand systems. The national marketing
programs and reservation systems of each of these managers, as well as the
advantages of strong customer preference for these upper-upscale and luxury
brands should also help these properties to maintain or increase their premium
over competitors in both occupancy and room rates. Repeat guest business is
enhanced by guest rewards programs offered by Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt and
Swissotel. Each of the managers maintains national reservation systems that
provide reservation agents with complete descriptions of the rooms available
and up-to-date rate information from the properties. Our website
(www.hostmarriott.com) currently permits users to connect to the Marriott,
Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hilton and Hyatt reservation systems to reserve
rooms in our hotels.

Seasonality. Our hotel sales have traditionally experienced moderate
seasonality. Additionally, hotel revenues in the fourth quarter reflect sixteen
weeks of results compared to twelve weeks for the first three quarters of the
fiscal year. As a result of the events of September 11, 2001 and the subsequent
decline in the economy, the fourth quarter 2001 dispersion rate was 6
percentage points below that of 1999 and 2000. During 1999 and 2000, the hotel
sales were not recorded in our revenues, as most of our hotels were leased to
third parties, however, hotel sales were used to calculate rental income.
Average hotel sales by quarter for the years 1999 through 2001 for our lodging
properties are as follows:

Other Real Estate Investments

In addition to our 122 full-service hotels, we maintain investments in
general and/or limited partner interests in partnerships that in the aggregate
own 3 full-service hotels and 158 limited service hotels, as well as other real
estate investments, the operations of which we do not consolidate. During 2001,
our EBITDA from these partnership investments was less than 1% of our total
EBITDA. Typically, we and certain of our subsidiaries manage our investments
and, through a combination of general and limited partnership and limited
liability company interests, conduct the venture's or partnership's business.
As of December 31, 2001, the combined balance sheets of these investments
included approximately $1.7 billion in assets and $1.3 billion in debt,
principally mortgages. All partnership investments in which we do not own a
controlling interest are accounted for using the equity method, and
accordingly, we do not consolidate the debt or assets on our balance sheet. All
of the debt of these partnerships is non-recourse to us and our
subsidiaries.

The hotels owned by the partnerships are currently operated under management
agreements with Marriott International or its subsidiaries. As the general
partner, we oversee and monitor Marriott International and its subsidiaries'
performance pursuant to these agreements. Additionally, we are responsible for
the payment of partnership obligations from partnership funds, preparation of
financial reports and tax returns and communications with lenders, limited
partners and regulatory bodies. As the general partner, we are reimbursed for
the cost of providing these services subject to limitations in certain cases.
Cash distributions provided from these partnerships are tied to the overall
performance of the underlying properties and the overall level of debt.
Distributions from these partnerships to us were $8.8 million in 2001 and $1.3
million in 2000. There were no distributions in 1999.

On March 1, 2002, we mailed a consent solicitation to the limited partners
of Marriott Residence Inn Limited Partnership, in which we own a 1% general
partnership interest, relating to the sale of the partnership to a third party.
The partnership owns 15 Residence Inn hotels. We have received sufficient votes
as of March 20, 2002 to approve the sale subject to the normal and customary
closing conditions, and we anticipate the sale to close during the second
quarter of 2002. Additionally, we are currently in discussions to sell the
Marriott Residence Inn II Limited Partnership, which owns 23 Residence Inn
hotels, including our 1% general partnership interest. The proceeds to us from
the sale of these partnerships, if any, would not be material.

Effective August 16, 2001, we sold our limited partnership interests in the
Fairfield Inn Limited Partnership for an immaterial amount and withdrew as
general partner, eliminating any further role in the partnership. Additionally,
Mutual Benefit/Marriott Hotel Associates L.P., a partnership in which we are
the general partner and the owner of the Richmond Marriott Hotel, filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the December 2001. We are currently in
discussions with the City of Richmond, other independent parties, and the
primary lender regarding restructuring the partnership.

As a result of the consolidation of Rockledge during March 2001, Host
Marriott owns a 49% interest in the partnership that owns the 36-hole Greg
Norman-designed golf course surrounding our Ritz-Carlton, Naples Golf Resort.
As previously discussed, during 2000 we acquired a non-controlling interest in
the partnership that owns the 772- room J.W. Marriott Hotel in Washington, D.C.
for $40 million. The partnership has $95 million in debt that is non-recourse
to Host Marriott.

Courtyard Joint Venture. In March 2000, Rockledge formed a joint venture
with Marriott International to acquire and hold the partnership interests in
the Courtyard by Marriott Limited Partnership ("CBM I") and Courtyard by
Marriott II Limited Partnership ("CBM II"), which together own 120 Courtyard by
Marriott properties totaling 17,559 rooms. The formation of the joint venture
and the acquisition of the CBM I and CBM II partnership interests was effected
as part of a settlement of litigation brought against Host Marriott and
Marriott International by CBM I and CBM II limited partners. For our 50%
interest in the joint venture the Company and Rockledge contributed $90 million
and the CBM I and CBM II partnership interests that we already owned. The joint
venture acquired the partnership interests in CBM I and CBM II for an aggregate
payment in cash of $372 million, which was funded by our cash contribution
together with Marriott

13



International's cash contribution and $200 million of non-recourse mezzanine
debt provided by Marriott International to the joint venture. Additionally, the
joint venture has approximately $735 million of debt, all of which is
non-recourse to and not guaranteed by Host Marriott, that consists of the
following: 1) The $287 million mortgage maturing April 2012 requiring monthly
payments of principal and interest at a fixed interest rate of 7.865% which is
secured by the 50 hotels owned by CBM I. 2) The $127 million senior notes
maturing February 2008 requiring semiannual interest payments at a fixed
interest rate of 10.75%. The notes are secured by a first priority pledge of
CBM II of its general and limited partnership interests. 3) The $321 million
multi-class commercial mortgage pass-through certificates maturing January 2013
requiring monthly payments of principal and interest at weighted average
interest rate of 7.8%, which is secured by first priority mortgage liens on the
69 hotels owned by CBM II. Each of the joint venture's 120 hotels is operated
by Marriott International pursuant to long-term management agreements. Since we
do not control the Courtyard joint venture, we record our investment using the
equity method of accounting.

HPT Leases. Prior to 1997, we divested certain limited-service hotel
properties through the sale and leaseback of 53 Courtyard properties and 18
Residence Inn properties to Hospitality Properties Trust ("HPT"). The Courtyard
and Residence Inn properties are subleased to subsidiaries of Crestline under
sublease agreements and are managed by Marriott International under long-term
management agreements. Revenues for these 71 properties of $77 million, $83
million and $80 million for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, are reflected in
our rental income. Rental payments to HPT totaled $72 million, $74 million and
$71 million, for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Other Real Estate Activities. We conduct lease activity related to
approximately 249,000 square feet of office space in four buildings that we own
in Atlanta, Chicago and San Francisco which is included in rental income in our
statements of operations. Additionally, we have lease and sublease activity
relating to Host Marriott's former restaurant operations for which we remain
contingently liable. As of December 31, 2001, the expected sublease rental
income for the restaurant operations exceeded our contingent lease liability.
We also have guarantees related to certain divested restaurant properties. The
guarantees totaled $57 million and $68 million as of December 31, 2001 and
2000, respectively. We consider the likelihood of any payments under any of
these lease guarantees or contingencies to be remote.

During 2001, we recorded interest on a note relating to the 1994 sale of 26
Fairfield Inns under the cost recovery method.

For a more detailed discussion of our other real estate investments, which
includes a summary of the outstanding debt balances of our affiliates, see Note
4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, "--Investments in and Receivables
from Affiliates."

Environmental and Regulatory Matters

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and
regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be
liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances
on, under, or in such property. Such laws may impose liability whether or not
the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such
hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain environmental laws and
common law principles could be used to impose liability for release of
asbestos-containing materials, and third parties may seek recovery from owners
or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with exposure to
released asbestos-containing materials. Environmental laws also may impose
restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or business may be
operated, and these restrictions may require expenditures. In connection with
our current or prior ownership or operation of hotels, we may be potentially
liable for any such costs or liabilities. Although we are currently not aware
of any material environmental claims pending or threatened against us, we can
offer no assurance that a material environmental claim will not be asserted
against us.

Material Agreements

Our hotels are managed and operated by third parties pursuant to management
agreements with our subsidiaries to which we have leased our hotels. The
initial term of our management agreements is generally 15 to 20 years in length
with multiple renewal terms. As of March 1, 2002, 101 of our hotels are managed
by Marriott International or its affiliates as Marriott or Ritz-Carlton hotels.
The following is a brief summary of the material terms typical to our current
management agreements, an example of which has been filed with the Securities &
Exchange Commission as an exhibit to this report.

. General. Under each management agreement, the manager provides complete
management services to the applicable lessee with respect to management
of such lessee's hotels.

. Operational services. The managers have sole responsibility and
exclusive authority for all activities necessary for the day-to-day
operation of the hotels, including establishing all room rates,
processing reservations, procuring inventories, supplies and services,
providing periodic inspection and consultation visits to the hotels by
the managers' technical and operational experts and promoting and
publicizing of the hotels. The manager receives compensation in the form
of a base management fee and an incentive management fee, typically
calculated as percentages of gross revenues and operating profits,
respectively. The incentive management fee typically is paid only after
an agreed upon return has been paid to our lessee subsidiary from the
remaining profit to the hotel.

. Executive supervision and management services. The managers provide all
managerial and other employees for the hotels, review the operation and
maintenance of the hotels, prepare reports, budgets and projections,
provide other administrative and accounting support services to the
hotel, such as planning and policy services, financial planning,
divisional financial services, risk planning services, product planning
and development, employee planning, corporate executive management,
legislative and governmental representation and certain in-house legal
services; and protect trademarks, trade-names and service marks. The
manager also provides a national reservations system.

. Chain services. The management agreements require the manager to
furnish chain services that are furnished generally on a central basis.
Such services include: (1) the development and operation of computer
systems and reservation services, (2) regional management and
administrative services, regional marketing and sales services, regional
training services, manpower development and relocation costs of regional
personnel and (3) such additional central or regional services as may
from time to time be more efficiently performed on a regional or group
level. Costs and expenses incurred by the manager in providing such
services are allocated among all hotels managed by the manager or its
affiliates.

. Working capital and fixed asset supplies. Our management agreements
typically require us to maintain working capital for each hotel and to
fund the cost of fixed asset supplies such as linen and other similar
items. We are also responsible for providing funds to meet the cash
needs for the hotel operations of the hotels if at any time the funds
available from hotel operations are insufficient to meet the financial
requirements of the hotels.

. FF&E replacements. The management agreements generally provide that
once each year the manager will prepare a list of furniture, fixtures
and equipment (FF&E) to be acquired and certain routine repairs to be
performed in the next year and an estimate of the funds that are
necessary therefor, subject to our review or approval. Under the
agreement, we are required to provide to the manager all necessary FF&E
for the operation of the hotels (including funding any required FF&E
replacements). For purposes of funding the FF&E replacements, a
specified percentage of the gross revenues of the hotel is deposited by
the manager in an escrow account (typically 5%). However, for 38 of our
hotels, we have entered into an agreement with Marriott International to
allow us to fund such expenditures directly as incurred from a
consolidated account subject to maintaining a balance of the greater of
$15 million or 40% of the total contributions made in the prior year to
the reserve account at all times in the account used for such
expenditures.

15



. Building alterations, improvements and renewals. The management
agreements require the manager to prepare an annual estimate of the
expenditures necessary for major repairs, alterations, improvements,
renewals and replacements to the structural, mechanical, electrical,
heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing and vertical
transportation elements of each hotel. In addition to the foregoing, the
management agreements generally provide that the manager may propose
such changes, alterations and improvements to the hotel as are required,
in the manager's reasonable judgment, to keep the hotel in a
competitive, efficient and economical operating condition.

. Sale of the hotel. Most of the management agreements limit our ability
to sell, lease or otherwise transfer the hotels unless the transferee is
not a competitor of the manager, and unless the transferee assumes the
related management agreements and meets specified other conditions.

. Service marks. During the term of the management agreements, the
service mark, symbols and logos currently used by the manager, such as
Marriott International, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hyatt and Swissotel,
may be used in the operation of the hotel. Any right to use the service
marks, logo and symbols and related trademarks at a hotel will terminate
with respect to that hotel upon termination of the management agreement
with respect to such hotel.

. Termination fee. Most of the management agreements provide that if the
management agreement is terminated prior to its full term due to
casualty, condemnation or the sale of the hotel, the manager would
receive a termination fee.

. Termination for failure to perform. Most of the management agreements
may be terminated based upon a failure to meet certain financial
performance criteria, subject to the manager's right to prevent such
termination by making specified payments to us based upon the shortfall
in such criteria.

We are currently negotiating with Marriott International certain changes to
the management and other agreements for our Marriott-managed hotels. If made,
the changes, which remain subject to the consent of various lenders to the
properties and other third parties, would be effective as of December 29, 2001.
There can be no assurance that the negotiations will be successful, that the
changes will be made in substantially the form described below or that we will
receive the necessary consents to implement the amendments. The amendments to
the management agreements that are under discussion include the following:

. Providing additional approval rights relating to the annual operating
budgets and FF&E estimates;

. Reducing certain expenses to the properties and lowering our working
capital requirements;

. Clarifying the circumstances and conditions under which Marriott
International and its affiliates may earn a profit on transactions with
the hotels, in addition to the amounts that Marriott International earns
through its base and incentive management fees;

. Enhancing territorial restrictions for certain hotels;

. Reducing the incentive management fees that we pay on our portfolio of
Marriott-managed hotels;

. Expanding the pool of hotels that are subject to an existing agreement
that allows us to sell certain assets without a Marriott International
management agreement, and revising the method for determining the number
of hotels that may be sold without a Marriott International management
agreement or a franchise agreement, and, in each case, without the
payment of a termination fee; and

. Terminating Marriott International's right to purchase up to 20% of each
class of our outstanding voting shares upon certain changes of control
and clarifying existing provisions in the management agreements that
limit our ability to sell a hotel or our company to a competitor of
Marriott International.

Employees

Our Board of Directors and executive officers manage us and we have no
employees who are not employees of the operating partnership. Currently, the
operating partnership has 199 employees at March 1, 2002, including

16



approximately 14 employees who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement
that is subject to review and renewal on a regular basis. We believe that we
and our managers generally have good relations with labor unions and have not
experienced any material business interruptions as a result of labor disputes.

Risk Factors

Prospective investors should carefully consider, among other factors, the
material risks described below.

Risks of Ownership of Our Common Stock

There are limitations on the acquisition of our common stock and changes in
control. Our charter and bylaws, the partnership agreement of the Operating
Partnership, our shareholder rights plan, the Maryland General Corporation Law
and certain contracts contain a number of provisions that could delay, defer or
prevent a transaction or a change in control of us that might involve a premium
price for our shareholders or otherwise be in their best interests, including
the following:

Ownership limit. The 9.8% ownership limit described under "Risk
Factors--Risks of Ownership of Our Common Stock--There are possible adverse
consequences of limits on ownership of our common stock" may have the effect
of precluding a change in control of us by a third party without the consent
of our Board of Directors, even if the change in control would be in the
interest of our shareholders, and even if the change in control would not
reasonably jeopardize our REIT status.

Staggered board. Our Board of Directors consists of eight members but
our charter provides that our number of directors may be increased or
decreased according to our bylaws, provided that the total number of
directors is not less than three nor more than 13. Pursuant to our bylaws,
the number of directors will be fixed by our Board of Directors within the
limits in our charter. Our Board of Directors is divided into three classes
of directors. Directors for each class are chosen for a three-year term when
the term of the current class expires. The staggered terms for directors may
affect shareholders' ability to effect a change in control of us, even if a
change in control would be in the interest of our shareholders.

Removal of board of directors. Our charter provides that, except for any
directors who may be elected by holders of a class or series of shares of
capital stock other than our common stock, directors may be removed only for
cause and only by the affirmative vote of shareholders holding at least
two-thirds of our outstanding shares entitled to be cast for the election of
directors. Vacancies on the Board of Directors may be filled by the
concurring vote of a majority of the remaining directors and, in the case of
a vacancy resulting from the removal of a director by the shareholders, by
at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast in the election of
directors.

Preferred shares; classification or reclassification of unissued shares
of capital stock without shareholder approval. Our charter provides that
the total number of shares of stock of all classes which we have authority
to issue is 800,000,000, initially consisting of 750,000,000 shares of
common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which 14,140,000
shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding as of March 1, 2002.
Our Board of Directors has the authority, without a vote of shareholders, to
classify or reclassify any unissued shares of stock, including common stock
into preferred stock or vice versa, and to establish the preferences and
rights of any preferred or other class or series of shares to be issued. The
issuance of preferred shares or other shares having special preferences or
rights could delay or prevent a change in control even if a change in
control would be in the interests of our shareholders. Because our Board of
Directors has the power to establish the preferences and rights of
additional classes or series of shares without a shareholder vote, our Board
of Directors may give the holders of any class or series preferences, powers
and rights, including voting rights, senior to the rights of holders of our
common stock.

Consent rights of the limited partners. Under the partnership agreement
of the operating partnership, we generally will be able to merge or
consolidate with another entity with the consent of partners holding

17



percentage interests that are more than 50% of the aggregate percentage
interests of the outstanding limited partnership interests entitled to vote
on the merger or consolidation, including any limited partnership interests
held by us, as long as the holders of limited partnership interests either
receive or have the right to receive the same consideration as our
shareholders. We, as holder of a majority of the limited partnership
interests, would be able to control the vote. Under our charter, holders of
at least two-thirds of our outstanding shares of common stock generally must
approve the merger or consolidation.

Maryland business combination law. Under the Maryland General
Corporation Law, specified "business combinations," including specified
issuances of equity securities, between a Maryland corporation and any
person who owns 10% or more of the voting power of the corporation's then
outstanding shares, or an "interested shareholder," or an affiliate of the
interested shareholder are prohibited for five years after the most recent
date in which the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder.
Thereafter, any of these specified business combinations must be approved by
80% of outstanding voting shares, and by two-thirds of voting shares other
than voting shares held by an interested shareholder unless, among other
conditions, the corporation's common shareholders receive a minimum price,
as defined in the Maryland General Corporation Law, for their shares and the
consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously paid by
the interested shareholder. We are subject to the Maryland business
combination statute.

Maryland control share acquisition law. Under the Maryland General
Corporation Law, "control shares" acquired in a "control share acquisition"
have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds
of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding shares owned by
the acquiror and by officers or directors who are employees of the
corporation. "Control shares" are voting shares which, if aggregated with
all other voting shares previously acquired by the acquiror or over which
the acquiror is able to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power
(except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquiror
to exercise voting power in electing directors within one of the following
ranges of voting power: (1) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (2)
one-third or more but less than a majority or (3) a majority or more of the
voting power. Control shares do not include shares the acquiring person is
then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained shareholder
approval. A "control share acquisition" means the acquisition of control
shares, subject to specified exceptions. We are subject to these control
share provisions of Maryland law, subject to an exemption for Marriott
International pursuant to its purchase right discussed below. See "Risk
Factors--Risks of Ownership of Our Common Stock--There are limitations on
the acquisition of our common stock and changes in control--Marriott
International purchase right."

Merger, consolidation, share exchange and transfer of our
assets. Pursuant to our charter, subject to the terms of any outstanding
class or series of capital stock, we can merge with or into another entity,
consolidate with one or more other entities, participate in a share exchange
or transfer our assets within the meaning of the Maryland General
Corporation Law if approved (1) by our Board of Directors in the manner
provided in the Maryland General Corporation Law and (2) by our shareholders
holding two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter,
except that any merger of us with or into a trust organized for the purpose
of changing our form of organization from a corporation to a trust requires
only the approval of our shareholders holding a majority of all votes
entitled to be cast on the merger. Under the Maryland General Corporation
Law, specified mergers may be approved without a vote of shareholders and a
share exchange is only required to be approved by a Maryland corporation by
its Board of Directors. Our voluntary dissolution also would require
approval of shareholders holding two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be
cast on the matter.

Amendments to our charter and bylaws. Our charter contains provisions
relating to restrictions on transferability of our common stock, the
classified Board of Directors, fixing the size of our Board of Directors
within the range set forth in our charter, removal of directors and the
filling of vacancies, all of which may be amended only by a resolution
adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by our shareholders holding
two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. As permitted
under the Maryland General Corporation Law, our charter and bylaws provide
that directors have the exclusive right to amend our bylaws. Amendments of
this provision of our charter also would require action of our Board of
Directors and approval by shareholders holding two-thirds of all the votes
entitled to be cast on the matter.

18



Marriott International purchase right. As a result of our spin-off of
Marriott International in 1993, Marriott International has the right to
purchase up to 20% of each class of our outstanding voting shares at the
then fair market value when specific change of control events involving us
occur, subject to specified limitations to protect our REIT status. The
Marriott International purchase right may have the effect of discouraging a
takeover of us, because any person considering acquiring a substantial or
controlling block of our common stock will face the possibility that its
ability to obtain or exercise control would be impaired or made more
expensive by the exercise of the Marriott International purchase right. In
connection with our negotiations with Marriott International on changes to
our management agreements, we are discussing terminating this right and
clarifying existing provisions in the management agreements that currently
limit our ability to sell a hotel or the company to a competitor of Marriott
International.

Shareholder rights plan. We adopted a shareholder rights plan which
provides, among other things, that when specified events occur, our
shareholders will be entitled to purchase from us a newly created series of
junior preferred shares, subject to our ownership limit described below. The
preferred share purchase rights are triggered by the earlier to occur of (1)
ten days after the date of a public announcement that a person or group
acting in concert has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, beneficial
ownership of 20% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock or (2)
ten business days after the commencement of or announcement of an intention
to make a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would
result in the acquiring person's becoming the beneficial owner of 20% or
more of our outstanding common stock. The preferred share purchase rights
would cause substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to
acquire us on terms not approved by our Board of Directors.

There are possible adverse consequences of limits on ownership of our common
stock. To maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal income tax
purposes, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding shares of capital stock
may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals, as defined
in the Internal Revenue Code to include some entities. In addition, a person
who owns, directly or by attribution, 10% or more of an interest in a tenant of
ours, or a tenant of any partnership in which we are a partner, cannot own,
directly or by attribution, 10% or more of our shares without jeopardizing our
qualification as a REIT. Primarily to facilitate maintenance of our
qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the ownership limit
under our charter prohibits ownership, directly or by virtue of the attribution
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, by any person or persons acting as a
group, of more than 9.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common
stock, subject to an exception for shares of our common stock held prior to our
conversion into a REIT (referred to as the "REIT conversion") so long as the
holder would not own more than 9.9% in value of our outstanding shares after
the REIT conversion, and prohibits ownership, directly or by virtue of the
attribution provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, by any person, or persons
acting as a group, of more than 9.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of
any class or series of our preferred shares. Together, these limitations are
referred to as the "ownership limit." Our Board of Directors, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may waive or modify the ownership limit with respect to
one or more persons who would not be treated as "individuals" for purposes of
the Internal Revenue Code if the Board of Directors is satisfied, based upon
information required to be provided by the party seeking the waiver and, if it
determines necessary or advisable, upon an opinion of counsel satisfactory to
our Board of Directors, that ownership in excess of this limit will not cause a
person who is an individual to be treated as owning shares in excess of the
ownership limit, applying the applicable constructive ownership rules, and will
not otherwise jeopardize our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes
(for example, by causing any of our tenants to be considered a "related party
tenant" for purposes of the REIT qualification rules). Common stock acquired or
held in violation of the ownership limit will be transferred automatically to a
trust for the benefit of a designated charitable beneficiary, and the person
who acquired the common stock in violation of the ownership limit will not be
entitled to any distributions thereon, to vote those shares of common stock or
to receive any proceeds from the subsequent sale of the common stock in excess
of the lesser of the price paid for the common stock or the amount realized
from the sale. A transfer of shares of our common stock to a person who, as a
result of the transfer, violates the ownership limit may be void under certain
circumstances, and, in any event, would deny that person any of the economic
benefits of owning shares of our common stock in excess of the ownership limit.
The ownership limit may have the effect of delaying, deferring

19



or preventing a change in control and, therefore, could adversely affect the
shareholders' ability to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market
price for our common stock in connection with such transaction.

We depend on external sources of capital for future growth. As with other
REITs, but unlike corporations generally, our ability to reduce our debt and
finance our growth largely must be funded by external sources of capital
because we generally will have to distribute to our shareholders at least 90%
of our taxable income in order to qualify as a REIT, including taxable income
we recognize for tax purposes but with regard to which we do not receive
corresponding cash. Our access to external capital will depend upon a number of
factors, including general market conditions, the market's perception of our
growth potential, our current and potential future earnings, cash distributions
and the market price of our common stock.

Shares of our common stock that are or become available for sale could
affect the price for shares of our common stock. Sales of a substantial number
of shares of our common stock, or the perception that sales could occur, could
adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. In addition,
holders of units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership
(referred to as "OP Units") who redeem their OP Units and receive common stock
upon redemption will be able to sell those shares freely, unless the person is
our affiliate and resale of the affiliate's shares is not covered by an
effective registration statement. As of December 31, 2001, there were
approximately 21.6 million OP Units outstanding (not including OP Units held
directly or indirectly by us), all of which are currently redeemable. Further,
a substantial number of shares of our common stock have been and will be issued
or reserved for issuance from time to time under our employee benefit plans,
including shares of our common stock reserved for options, and these shares of
common stock would be available for sale in the public markets from time to
time pursuant to exemptions from registration or upon registration. Moreover,
the issuance of additional shares of our common stock by us in the future would
be available for sale in the public markets. We can make no prediction about
the effect that future sales of our common stock would have on the market price
of our common stock.

Our earnings and cash distributions will affect the market price of shares
of our common stock. We believe that the market value of a REIT's equity
securities is based primarily upon the market's perception of the REIT's growth
potential and its current and potential future cash distributions, whether from
operations, sales, acquisitions, development or refinancings, and is
secondarily based upon the value of the underlying assets. For that reason,
shares of our common stock may trade at prices that are higher or lower than
the net asset value per share. To the extent we retain operating cash flow for
investment purposes, working capital reserves or other purposes rather than
distributing the cash flow to shareholders, these retained funds, while
increasing the value of our underlying assets, may negatively affect the market
price of our common stock. Our failure to meet the market's expectation with
regard to future earnings and cash distributions would likely adversely affect
the market price of our common stock.

Market interest rates may affect the price of shares of our common
stock. We believe that one of the factors that investors consider important in
deciding whether to buy or sell shares of a REIT is the distribution rate on
the shares, considered as a percentage of the price of the shares, relative to
market interest rates. If market interest rates increase, prospective
purchasers of REIT shares may expect a higher distribution rate. Thus, higher
market interest rates could cause the market price of our shares to go down.

Risks of Operation

Our revenues and the value of our properties are subject to conditions
affecting the lodging industry. Our revenues and the value of our properties
are subject to conditions affecting the lodging industry. These include:

. changes in the national, regional and local economic climate

. changes in business and pleasure travel

20



. local conditions such as an oversupply of hotel properties or a
reduction in demand for hotel rooms

. the attractiveness of our hotels to consumers and competition from
comparable hotels

. the quality, philosophy and performance of the managers of our hotels

. changes in room rates and increases in operating costs due to inflation
and other factors and

. the need to periodically repair and renovate our hotels.

As a result of the effects of the economic recession and the September 11,
2001 terrorist attacks, the lodging industry has experienced a significant
decline in business caused by a reduction in travel for both business and
pleasure. We currently expect that the decline in operating levels will
continue in 2002. Additionally, as a result of the September 11 terrorist
attacks and the collapse of the World Trade Center Towers, our New York World
Trade Center Marriott hotel was destroyed. We also sustained considerable
damage to a second property, the New York Marriott Financial Center hotel.

Room revenues of our hotels decreased during 2001 as a result of the
continuing economic recession. For the year ended December 31, 2001 our
comparable RevPAR decreased 13.0% due to a decrease in occupancy of 7.7
percentage points to 70.0% combined with a decline in the average room rate of
3.5% to $151.02.

During the 4-week period subsequent to the events of September 11, 2001, our
hotels recorded average weekly occupancy rates of 38% to 63%. During that
period, we had a very high level of large group cancellations which represented
approximately $70 million in future revenue primarily affecting our luxury and
larger convention hotels. This period was not representative of the remainder
of the fourth quarter. However, our results from operations for the fourth
quarter of 2001 did reflect a 28.3% decline in RevPAR when compared to the
fourth quarter of 2000. We have been actively working with the managers of our
hotels to reduce the operating costs of our hotels, as well as to provide
economic incentives to individuals and business travelers in selected markets
to increase demand. In addition, based on our assessment of the current
operating environment and to conserve capital, we have reduced or suspended
certain capital expenditure projects.

As a result of a gradual return to more normal levels of business, we have
begun to see modest improvements in occupancy and average room rates, though
they remain below prior year levels. However, our fourth quarter results for
2001 were significantly lower than the fourth quarter of 2000. There can be no
assurance that the current economic recession will not continue for an extended
period of time and that it will not significantly affect our operations.

If, as a result of conditions such as those referenced above affecting the
lodging industry, our assets do not generate income sufficient to pay our
expenses, we will be unable to service our debt and maintain our properties.

Thirty-one of our hotels and assets related thereto are subject to mortgages
in an aggregate amount of approximately $2.3 billion. If these hotels do not
produce adequate cash flow to service the debt represented by such mortgages,
the mortgage lenders could foreclose on such assets and we would lose such
assets; however, the debt is non-recourse to Host LP. If the cash flow on such
properties were not sufficient to provide us with an adequate return, we could
opt to allow such foreclosure rather than making necessary mortgage payments
with funds from other sources.

Our expenses may remain constant even if our revenue drops. The expenses of
owning property are not necessarily reduced when circumstances like market
factors and competition cause a reduction in income from the property. Because
of the effects of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the current
economic recession, we are working with our managers to substantially reduce
the operating costs of our hotels. In addition, based on our assessment of the
current operating environment, and in order to conserve capital, we have

21



reduced or suspended certain capital expenditure projects. Nevertheless, our
financial condition could be adversely affected by the following costs:

. interest rate levels

. debt service levels (including on loans secured by mortgages)

. the availability of financing

. the cost of compliance with government regulation, including zoning and
tax laws and

. changes in governmental regulations, including those governing usage,
zoning and taxes.

If we are unable to reduce our expenses to reflect our current reduction in
revenue and the reduction that we expect in the future, our business will be
adversely affected.

We do not control our hotel operations, and we are dependent on the managers
of our hotels. Because federal income tax laws restrict REITs and their
subsidiaries from operating a hotel, we do not manage our hotels. Instead, we
retain third-party managers including, among others, Marriott International,
Hyatt, Four Seasons and Swissotel, to manage our hotels pursuant to management
agreements. Our income from the hotels may be adversely affected if the
managers fail to provide quality services and amenities and competitive room
rates at our hotels or fail to maintain the quality of the hotel brand names.
While HMT Lessee LLC, a taxable REIT subsidiary of ours that is the lessee of
substantially all of our full-service properties, monitors the hotel managers'
performance, we have limited specific recourse if we believe that the hotel
managers are not performing adequately. Underperformance by our hotel managers
could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our relationships with our hotel managers are primarily contractual in
nature, although certain of our managers owe fiduciary duties to us under
applicable law. We are in discussions with various managers of our hotels
regarding their performance under management agreements for our hotels. We have
had, and continue to have, differences with the managers of our hotels over
their performance and compliance with the terms of our agreements. We generally
resolve issues with our managers through discussions and negotiations. However,
if we are unable to reach satisfactory results through discussions and
negotiations, we also occasionally may engage in litigation with our managers.
For example, we are currently engaged in litigation with Swissotel, the manager
of four of our hotels. If we fail to reach satisfactory resolution with respect
to any disputes, the operation of our hotels could be adversely affected.

Our relationship with Marriott International may result in conflicts of
interest. Marriott International, a public hotel management company, and its
affiliates, manages or franchises 110 of our 122 hotels. In addition, Marriott
International manages and in some cases may own or be invested in hotels that
compete with our hotels. As a result, Marriott International may make decisions
regarding competing lodging facilities that it manages that would not
necessarily be in our best interests. Richard E. Marriott is our Chairman of
the Board and has served as a director of Marriott International since 1993. He
has announced his intention to not stand for reelection for the Board of
Directors of Marriott International in May 2002. His brother, J.W. Marriott,
Jr. has been a member of our Board of Directors since 1964 and has announced
that he will not stand for reelection at the end of his term in May 2002. J.W.
Marriott, Jr. also serves as a director and an executive officer, of Marriott
International. J.W. Marriott, Jr. and Richard E. Marriott beneficially owned,
as determined for securities law purposes, as of January 31, 2002,
approximately 12.7% and 12.3%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of
common stock of Marriott International. As a result, J.W. Marriott, Jr. and
Richard E. Marriott have potential conflicts of interest as our directors when
making decisions regarding Marriott International, including decisions relating
to the management agreements involving the hotels and Marriott International's
management of competing lodging properties.

Our Board of Directors follows policies and procedures intended to limit the
involvement of J.W. Marriott, Jr. and Richard E. Marriott in conflict
situations, including requiring them to abstain from voting as directors on

22



matters which present a conflict between the companies. If appropriate, these
policies and procedures will apply to other directors and officers.

We have substantial leverage. We have a significant amount of indebtedness
that could have important consequences. It currently requires us to dedicate a
substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our
indebtedness, which reduces the availability of our cash flow to fund working
capital, capital expenditures, expansion efforts, distributions to our
shareholders and other general purposes. Additionally, it could:

. limit our ability in the future to undertake refinancings of our debt or
obtain financing for expenditures, acquisitions, development or other
general business purposes on terms and conditions acceptable to us, if
at all, or

. affect adversely our ability to compete effectively or operate
successfully under adverse economic conditions.

If our cash flow and working capital were not sufficient to fund our
expenditures or service our indebtedness, we would have to raise additional
funds through:

. the sale of our equity

. the incurrence of additional permitted indebtedness or

. the sale of our assets.

We cannot assure you that any of these sources of funds would be available
to us or, if available, would be on terms that we would find acceptable or in
amounts sufficient for us to meet our obligations or fulfill our business plan.
For example, under the terms of our bank credit facility, the proceeds from
these activities must be used to repay amounts outstanding and may not be
otherwise available for our use.

There is no charter or by-law restriction on the amount of debt we may
incur. There are no restrictions in our organizational documents that limit
the amount of indebtedness that we may incur. However, our existing debt
instruments contain restrictions on the amount of indebtedness that we may
incur. If we became more highly leveraged, our debt service payments would
increase and our cash flow and our ability to service our debt and other
obligations might be adversely affected.

The terms of our debt place restrictions on us and our subsidiaries,
reducing operational flexibility and creating default risks. The documents
governing the terms of our senior notes and bank credit facility contain
covenants that place restrictions on us and our subsidiaries. The activities
upon which such restrictions exist include, but are not limited to:

. acquisitions, merger and consolidations

. the incurrence of additional debt

. the creation of liens

. the sale of assets

. capital expenditures

. raising capital

. the payment of dividends and

. transactions with affiliates.

In addition, certain covenants in our bank credit facility require us and
our subsidiaries to meet financial performance tests. The restrictive covenants
in the indenture, the bank credit facility and the documents

23



governing our other debt (including our mortgage debt) will reduce our
flexibility in conducting our operations and will limit our ability to engage
in activities that may be in our long-term best interest. Our failure to comply
with these restrictive covenants could result in an event of default that, if
not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all or a substantial
portion of our debt or a significant increase in the interest rates on our
debt, either of which could adversely affect our operations and ability to
maintain adequate liquidity.

As a result of the effects on our business of the economic recession and the
events of September 11, 2001, we anticipate that in the future we may fail to
comply with certain financial covenants under the documents governing certain
of our indebtedness. As a result of the effects on our business of the economic
recession and the events of September 11, 2001, we have entered into an
amendment to our bank credit facility, effective November 19, 2001, which among
other things:

. adjusts certain financial covenants so as to require us to meet less
stringent levels in respect of (a) a minimum consolidated interest
coverage ratio and a minimum unsecured interest coverage ratio until
September 6, 2002 and (b) the maximum leverage ratio through August 15,
2002

. suspends until September 6, 2002 the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio
test that we must meet

. limits draws under the revolver portion of our bank credit facility to
(a) $50 million in the first quarter of 2002 and (b) up to $25 million
in the second quarter of 2002 (but only if draws in the second quarter
of 2002 do not cause the aggregate amount drawn in 2002 and then
outstanding to exceed $25 million) and

. increases the interest rate based on higher leverage levels.

In addition, the amendment imposes restrictions and requirements through
August 15, 2002 which include, among others:

. restricting our ability to pay dividends on our equity securities and
our convertible debt obligations unless projections indicate such
payment is necessary to maintain our REIT status and/or unless we are
below certain leverage levels

. restricting our ability to incur additional indebtedness and requiring
that we apply all net proceeds of permitted incurrences of indebtedness
to repay outstanding amounts under the bank credit facility

. requiring us to apply all net proceeds from capital contributions to the
Operating Partnership or from sales of equity by us to repay outstanding
amounts under the bank credit facility

. requiring us to use all net proceeds from the sale of assets to repay
indebtedness under the bank credit facility

. restricting our ability to make acquisitions and investments unless the
asset to be acquired has a leverage ratio of 3.5 to 1.0 or below

. restricting our investments in subsidiaries and

. restricting our capital expenditures.

The amendment also permits us (i) to retain in escrow any casualty insurance
proceeds that we receive from insurance policies covering the New York World
Trade Center Marriott and the New York Marriott Financial Center until such
proceeds are applied toward the restoration of the New York Marriott Financial
Center and the construction of a new hotel that replaces the New York World
Trade Center Marriott, or (ii) to apply such insurance proceeds to the payment
of amounts due to certain third parties, including the New York World Trade
Center Marriott ground lessor, mortgage lender and Marriott International as
manager. Any proceeds (other than business interruption insurance proceeds) not
so used would be used to repay amounts outstanding under the bank credit
facility. The amendment also allows us to include business interruption
proceeds that we receive for the New York World Trade Center Marriott and the
New York Marriott Financial Center hotels in our calculation of consolidated
EBITDA for purposes of our financial covenants.

24



We intend to amend or replace the bank credit facility prior to August 15,
2002. There can be no assurance that we will be able to amend or replace the
bank credit facility on terms any more favorable than those currently in
effect, if at all. Any default under the bank credit facility or any successor
credit facility that results in an acceleration of its final stated maturity
could constitute an event of default under the indenture with respect to all
outstanding series of senior notes issued thereunder.

We are currently in compliance with the terms and restrictive covenants of
our bank credit facility. As a result of entering into the recent amendment,
and obtaining the relief from the financial covenants described above, we
expect to remain in compliance with our bank credit facility through at least
August 15, 2002, the date after which our maximum leverage ratio will return to
the levels that were in effect prior to this amendment. We anticipate that, if
adverse operating conditions continue at currently forecasted levels, we will
not be able to comply with the leverage ratio applicable after August 15, 2002
or other financial tests applicable at the end of our third quarter of 2002
(September 6, 2002). If we fail to comply with the leverage ratio or any other
covenant of the bank credit facility, we would be in default under the bank
credit facility to the extent we had an outstanding balance. As of December 31,
2001 we had no amounts outstanding under our bank credit facility.

Under the indenture pursuant to which nearly all of our outstanding senior
notes were issued, we and our restricted subsidiaries are generally prohibited
from incurring additional indebtedness unless, at the time of such incurrence,
we would satisfy the requirements set forth in the indenture. One of these
requirements is that, after giving effect to any such new incurrence, on a pro
forma basis, our consolidated coverage ratio cannot be less than 2.0 to 1.0. As
a result of the effects on our business of the economic recession and the
September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, we anticipate that any consolidated
coverage ratio that is calculated under the indenture after the end of our
first quarter 2002 may be less than 2.0 to 1.0. If this occurs, then we will be
prohibited from incurring indebtedness and from issuing disqualified stock
under the indenture other than the indebtedness that we and our restricted
subsidiaries are specifically permitted to incur under certain exceptions to
this prohibition set forth in the indenture. Our failure to maintain a
consolidated coverage ratio of greater than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0 could limit
our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interest.

Our management agreements could impair the sale or financing of our
hotels. Under the terms of the management agreements, we generally may not
sell, lease or otherwise transfer the hotels unless the transferee is not a
competitor of the manager, and the transferee assumes the related management
agreements and meets specified other conditions. Our ability to finance,
refinance or sell any of the properties may, depending upon the structure of
such transactions, require the manager's consent. If the manager does not
consent, we would be prohibited from financing, refinancing or selling the
property without breaching the management agreement.

The acquisition contracts relating to some hotels limit our ability to sell
or refinance those hotels. For reasons relating to federal income tax
considerations of the former and current owners of approximately 20 of our
full-service hotels, we agreed to restrictions on selling some hotels or
repaying or refinancing the mortgage debt on those hotels for varying periods
depending on the hotel. We anticipate that, in specified circumstances, we may
agree to similar restrictions in connection with future hotel acquisitions. As
a result, even if it were in our best interests to sell or refinance the
mortgage debt on these hotels, it may be difficult or impossible to do so
during their respective lock-out periods.

Our ground lease payments may increase faster than the revenues we receive
on the hotels. As of January 31, 2002, 45 of our hotels are subject to ground
leases (including the New York World Trade Center Marriott hotel ground lease
which is still in effect). These ground leases generally require increases in
ground rent payments every five years. Our ability to service our debt could be
adversely affected to the extent that our revenues do not increase at the same
or a greater rate as the increases under the ground leases. In addition, if we
were to sell a hotel encumbered by a ground lease, the buyer would have to
assume the ground lease, which could result in a lower sales price. Moreover,
to the extent that such ground leases are not renewed at their expiration, our
revenues could be adversely affected.

25



We may be unable to sell properties when appropriate because real estate
investments are illiquid. Real estate investments generally cannot be sold
quickly. We may not be able to vary our portfolio promptly in response to
economic or other conditions. The inability to respond promptly to changes in
the performance of our investments could adversely affect our financial
condition and ability to service debt. In addition, there are limitations under
the federal tax laws applicable to REITs and agreements that we have entered
into when we acquired some of our properties that may limit our ability to
recognize the full economic benefit from a sale of our assets.

We depend on our key personnel. We depend on the efforts of our executive
officers and other key personnel. While we believe that we could find
replacements for these key personnel, the loss of their services could have a
significant adverse effect on our operations. None of our key personnel have
employment agreements. We do not have or intend to obtain key-man life
insurance with respect to any of our personnel.

Partnership and other litigation judgments or settlements could have a
material adverse effect on our financial condition. We are a party to various
lawsuits relating to previous partnership transactions, including transactions
relating to our conversion into a REIT. While we and the other defendants to
such lawsuits believe all of the lawsuits in which we are a defendant are
without merit and we are vigorously defending against such claims, we can give
no assurance as to the outcome of any of the lawsuits. If any of the lawsuits
were to be determined adversely to us or a settlement involving a payment of a
material sum of money were to occur, there could be a material adverse effect
on our financial condition.

We may acquire hotel properties through joint ventures with third parties
that could result in conflicts. Instead of purchasing hotel properties
directly, we may invest as a co-venturer. Joint venturers often share control
over the operation of the joint venture assets. For example, through our
subsidiary Rockledge, we entered into a joint venture with Marriott
International through which the joint venture owns two limited partnerships
holding, in the aggregate, 120 Courtyard by Marriott hotels. Subsidiaries of
Marriott International manage these Courtyard by Marriott hotels. Actions by a
co-venturer, particularly Marriott International, could subject the assets to
additional risk, including:

. our co-venturer in an investment might have economic or business
interests or goals that are inconsistent with our interests or goals;

. our co-venturer may be in a position to take action contrary to our
instructions or requests or contrary to our policies or objectives or;

. a joint venture partner could go bankrupt, leaving us liable for its
share of joint venture liabilities.

Although we generally will seek to maintain sufficient control of any joint
venture to permit our objectives to be achieved, we might not be able to take
action without the approval of our joint venture partners. Also, our joint
venture partners could take actions binding on the joint venture without our
consent. For further discussion of the risks associated with entering into a
joint venture with Marriott International, see the discussion above under "Our
relationship with Marriott International may result in conflicts of interest".

Environmental problems are possible and can be costly. We believe that our
properties are in compliance in all material respects with applicable
environmental laws. Unidentified environmental liabilities could arise,
however, and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition
and performance. Federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the
protection of the environment may require a current or previous owner or
operator of real estate to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic
substances or petroleum product releases at the property. The owner or operator
may have to pay a governmental entity or third parties for property damage and
for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by the parties in connection with
the contamination. These laws typically impose clean-up responsibility and
liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the
presence of the contaminants. Even if more than one person may have been
responsible for the contamination, each person covered by the environmental
laws may be held

26



responsible for all of the clean-up costs incurred. In addition, third parties
may sue the owner or operator of a site for damages and costs resulting from
environmental contamination emanating from that site. Environmental laws also
govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos. These laws require
that owners or operators of buildings containing asbestos properly manage and
maintain the asbestos, that they notify and train those who may come into
contact with asbestos and that they undertake special precautions, including
removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or
demolition of a building. These laws may impose fines and penalties on building
owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements and may allow
third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury
associated with exposure to asbestos fibers.

Compliance with other government regulations can also be costly. Our hotels
are subject to various other forms of regulation, including Title III of the
Americans with Disabilities Act, building codes and regulations pertaining to
fire safety. Compliance with those laws and regulations could require
substantial capital expenditures. These regulations may be changed from time to
time, or new regulations adopted, resulting in additional or unexpected costs
of compliance. Any increased costs could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition or results of operations.

Some potential losses are not covered by insurance. We carry comprehensive
insurance coverage for general liability, property, business interruption and
other risks with respect to all of our hotels and other properties. These
policies offer coverage features and insured limits that we believe are
customary for similar type properties. Generally, the policies provide coverage
and limits on a blanket basis, combining the claims of our properties together
for evaluation against policy aggregate limits and sub-limits and, in the case
of our Marriott-managed hotels, with other Marriott-managed hotels of other
owners. Thus, for certain risks (e.g., earthquake), multiple claims from
several hotels or owners may exceed policy sub-limits. Certain other risks
(e.g., war and environmental hazards), however, may be uninsurable or too
expensive to justify insuring against. Furthermore, an insurance provider could
elect to deny or limit coverage under a claim. Should an uninsured loss or a
loss in excess of insured limits occur, or should an insurance carrier deny or
limit coverage under a claim, we could lose all, or a portion of, the capital
we have invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from
the hotel. In that event, we might nevertheless remain obligated for any
mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the property.

As discussed below in "Recent or future terrorist attacks could adversely
affect us", on September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center
Towers in New York City resulted in the destruction of our New York World Trade
Center Marriott hotel and caused considerable damage to our New York Marriott
Financial Center hotel. Although we have both property and business
interruption insurance for our two affected hotels with a major insurer through
our manager, Marriott International, from which we expect to receive business
interruption insurance and property damage insurance proceeds to cover all or a
substantial portion of the losses at both hotels, we cannot currently determine
the amount or timing of those payments. Under the terms of the New York World
Trade Center Marriott ground lease, any proceeds from the property portion of
the hotel claim are required to be placed in an insurance trust for the
exclusive purpose of rebuilding the hotel. As of March 1, 2002, we had received
business interruption and property advances from our insurers in an aggregate
amount of $17 million of which approximately $5 million was for property
insurance proceeds relating to the two hotels. Under the terms of our amended
bank credit facility, property insurance proceeds that we receive from
insurance coverage on the New York World Trade Center Marriott and New York
Marriott Financial Center are to be retained in escrow until applied as
described in "--There is no charter or by-law restriction on the amount of debt
we may incur." If the amount of such insurance proceeds is substantially less
than our actual losses or if the payments are substantially delayed, it could
have a material adverse effect on our business. Our insurance carrier has an
A/+ A.M. Best Rating. /

Recent or future terrorist attacks could adversely affect us. On September
11, 2001, several aircraft that were hijacked by terrorists destroyed the World
Trade Center Towers in New York City and damaged the

27



Pentagon in northern Virginia. As a result of the attacks and the collapse of
the World Trade Center Towers, our New York World Trade Center Marriott hotel
was destroyed and we sustained considerable damage to our New York Marriott
Financial Center hotel. Subsequent to the attacks, the Federal Aviation
Administration closed United States airspace to commercial traffic for several
days. The aftermath of these events, together with an economic recession, has
adversely affected the travel and hospitality industries, including the
full-service hotel industry. The impact which these terrorist attacks, or
future events such as military or police activities in the United States or
foreign countries, future terrorist activities or threats of such activities,
biological or chemical weapons attacks, political unrest and instability,
interruptions in transportation infrastructure, riots and protests, could have
on our business in particular and the United States economy, the global
economy, and global financial markets in general cannot presently be
determined. It is possible that these factors could have a material adverse
effect on our business, our ability to finance our business, our ability to
insure our properties (see "We may not be able to obtain new insurance for our
hotels or to obtain insurance at acceptable premium levels" below), and on our
financial condition and results of operations as a whole.

We may not be able to obtain new insurance for our hotels or to obtain
insurance at acceptable premium levels. Due to changes in the insurance market
arising prior to September 11, 2001 and the effects of the terrorist attacks on
September 11, 2001, it is becoming more difficult and more expensive to obtain
insurance. Our current insurance policies on our hotels generally reach the end
of their terms on April 1, 2002 and June 1, 2002. We may encounter difficulty
in obtaining or renewing property or casualty insurance on our properties at
the same levels of coverage and under similar terms. Such insurance may be more
limited and for some catastrophic risks (e.g., earthquake, flood and terrorism)
may not be generally available at current levels. Even if we are able to renew
our policies or to obtain new policies at levels and with limitations
consistent with our current policies, we cannot be sure that we will be able to
obtain such insurance at premium rates that are commercially reasonable. If we
were unable to obtain adequate insurance on our properties for certain risks,
it could cause us to be in default under specific covenants on certain of our
debt instruments or other contractual commitments we have which require us to
maintain adequate insurance on our properties to protect against the risk of
loss. If this were to occur, or if we were unable to obtain adequate insurance
and our properties experienced damages which would otherwise have been covered
by insurance, it could materially adversely affect our business and the
conditions of our properties.

Federal Income Tax Risks

To qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our
taxable income, irrespective of our available cash or outstanding
obligations. To continue to qualify as a REIT, we currently are required to
distribute to our shareholders with respect to each year at least 90% of our
taxable income, excluding net capital gain. In addition, we will be subject to
a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions
made by us with respect to the calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of
our ordinary income and 95% of our capital gain net income for that year and
any undistributed taxable income from prior periods. We intend to make
distributions to our shareholders to comply with the distribution requirement
and to avoid the nondeductible excise tax and will rely for this purpose on
distributions from the Operating Partnership. However, there are differences in
timing between our recognition of taxable income and our receipt of cash
available for distribution due to, among other things, the seasonality of the
lodging industry and the fact that some taxable income will be "phantom"
income, which is taxable income that is not matched by cash flow, or EBITDA, to
us. Due to some transactions entered into in years prior to the REIT
conversion, we expect to recognize substantial amounts of "phantom" income.
There is a distinct possibility that these timing differences could require us
to borrow funds or to issue additional equity to enable us to meet the
distribution requirement and, therefore, to maintain our REIT status, and to
avoid the nondeductible excise tax. In addition, because the REIT distribution
requirements prevent us from retaining earnings, we will generally be required
to refinance debt that matures with additional debt or equity. We cannot assure
you that any of these sources of funds, if available at all, would be
sufficient to meet our distribution and tax obligations.

Adverse tax consequences would apply if we failed to qualify as a REIT. We
believe that we have been organized and have operated in such a manner so as to
qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code,

28



commencing with our taxable year beginning January 1, 1999, and we currently
intend to continue to operate as a REIT during future years. No assurance can
be provided, however, that we qualify as a REIT or that new legislation,
Treasury Regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will
not significantly change the tax laws with respect to our qualification as a
REIT or the federal income tax consequences of our REIT qualification. If we
fail to qualify as a REIT, we will be subject to federal and state income tax,
including any applicable alternative minimum tax, on our taxable income at
regular corporate rates. In addition, unless entitled to statutory relief, we
would not qualify as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year
during which REIT qualification is lost. The additional tax burden on us would
significantly reduce the cash available for distribution by us to our
shareholders, and we would no longer be required to make any distributions to
shareholders. Our failure to qualify as a REIT could reduce materially the
value of our common stock and would cause any distributions to shareholders
that otherwise would have been subject to tax as capital gain dividends to be
taxable as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated
earnings and profits, or "E&P." However, subject to limitations under the
Internal Revenue Code, corporate distributees may be eligible for the dividends
received deduction with respect to our distributions. Our failure to qualify as
a REIT also would cause an event of default under our credit facility that
could lead to an acceleration of the amounts due under the credit facility,
which, in turn, would constitute an event of default under our outstanding debt
securities.

We will be disqualified as a REIT at least for taxable year 1999 if we
failed to distribute all of our E&P attributable to our non-REIT taxable
years. In order to qualify as a REIT, we cannot have at the end of any taxable
year any undistributed E&P that is attributable to one of our non-REIT taxable
years. A REIT has until the close of its first taxable year as a REIT in which
it has non-REIT E&P to distribute its accumulated E&P. We were required to have
distributed this E&P prior to the end of 1999, the first taxable year for which
our REIT election was effective. If we failed to do this, we will be
disqualified as a REIT at least for taxable year 1999. We believe that
distributions of non-REIT E&P that we made were sufficient to distribute all of
the non-REIT E&P as of December 31, 1999, but we cannot guarantee that we met
this requirement.

If our leases are not respected as true leases for federal income tax
purposes, we would fail to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must
satisfy two gross income tests, under which specified percentages of our gross
income must be passive income, like rent. For the rent paid pursuant to the
leases, which constitutes substantially all of our gross income, to qualify for
purposes of the gross income tests, the leases must be respected as true leases
for federal income tax purposes and not be treated as service contracts, joint
ventures or some other type of arrangement. In addition, the lessees must not
be regarded as "related party tenants," as defined in the Internal Revenue
Code. We believe that the leases will be respected as true leases for federal
income tax purposes. There can be no assurance, however, that the IRS will
agree with this view. We also believe that Crestline Capital Corporation, the
lessee of substantially all of our full-service hotels prior to January 1,
2001, was not a "related party tenant" and, as a result of changes in the tax
laws effective January 1, 2001, HMT Lessee will not be treated as a "related
party tenant" so long as it qualifies as a "taxable REIT subsidiary." If the
leases were not respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes or if
the lessees were regarded as "related party tenants," we would not be able to
satisfy either of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs and we would
lose our REIT status. See "Risk Factors--Federal Income Tax Risks--Adverse tax
consequences would apply if we failed to qualify as a REIT" above.

If HMT Lessee fails to qualify as a taxable REIT subsidiary, we would fail
to qualify as a REIT. For our taxable years beginning on and after January 1,
2001, as a result of REIT tax law changes under the specific provisions of the
Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999 relating to REITs
(we refer to those provisions as the "REIT Modernization Act"), we are
permitted to lease our hotels to a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership that
is taxable as a corporation and that elects to be treated as a "taxable REIT
subsidiary." Accordingly, effective January 1, 2001, HMT Lessee directly or
indirectly acquired all but one of the full-service hotel leasehold interests
formerly held by Crestline. So long as HMT Lessee and other affiliated lessees
qualify as taxable REIT subsidiaries of ours, they will not be treated as
"related party tenants." As of June 16, 2001, we acquired the one remaining
leasehold interest from Crestline. In addition, as of June 28, 2001, we
acquired the three remaining leasehold interests from third parties. We believe
that HMT Lessee qualifies to be treated as a

29



taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes. We cannot assure you,
however, that the IRS will not challenge its status as a taxable REIT
subsidiary for federal income tax purposes, or that a court would not sustain
such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in disqualifying HMT Lessee from
treatment as a taxable REIT subsidiary, we would fail to meet the asset tests
applicable to REITs and substantially all of our income would fail to qualify
for the gross income tests and, accordingly, we would cease to qualify as a
REIT. See "Risk Factors--Federal Income Tax Risks--Adverse tax consequences
would apply if we failed to qualify as a REIT" above.

Despite our REIT status, we remain subject to various taxes, including
substantial deferred and contingent tax liabilities. Notwithstanding our
status as a REIT, we are subject, through our ownership interest in the
Operating Partnership, to certain federal, state, local and foreign taxes on
our income and property. In addition, we will be required to pay federal tax at
the highest regular corporate rate upon our share of any "built-in gain"
recognized as a result of any sale before January 1, 2009, by the Operating
Partnership and its non-corporate subsidiaries of assets, including the hotels,
in which interests were acquired by the Operating Partnership from our
predecessor and its subsidiaries as part of the REIT conversion. Built-in gain
is the amount by which an asset's fair market value exceeded our adjusted basis
in the asset on January 1, 1999, the first day of our first taxable year as a
REIT. The total amount of gain on which we would be subject to corporate income
tax if the assets that we held at the time of the REIT conversion were sold in
a taxable transaction prior to January 1, 2009 would be material to us. In
addition, at the time of the REIT conversion, we expected that we or Rockledge
Hotel Properties, Inc. or Fernwood Hotel Assets, Inc. (each of which is a
taxable corporation in which the Operating Partnership owns a 95% nonvoting
interest and in April, 2001 the Operating Partnership purchased the remaining
5% voting interest) likely would recognize substantial built-in gain and
deferred tax liabilities in the next ten years without any corresponding
receipt of cash by us or the Operating Partnership. We may have to pay certain
state income taxes because not all states treat REITs the same as they are
treated for federal income tax purposes. We may also have to pay certain
foreign taxes to the extent we own assets or conduct operations in foreign
jurisdictions. The Operating Partnership is obligated under its partnership
agreement to pay all such taxes (and any related interest and penalties)
incurred by us, as well as any liabilities that the IRS successfully may assert
against us for corporate income taxes for taxable years prior to the time we
qualified as a REIT. Our taxable REIT subsidiaries, including Rockledge,
Fernwood and HMT Lessee, are taxable as corporations and will pay federal,
state and local income tax on their net income at the applicable corporate
rates, and foreign taxes to the extent they own assets or conduct operations in
foreign jurisdictions.

If the IRS were to challenge successfully the Operating Partnership's status
as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, we would cease to qualify as
a REIT and suffer other adverse consequences. We believe that the Operating
Partnership qualifies to be treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes. As a partnership, it is not subject to federal income tax on its
income. Instead, each of its partners, including us, is required to recognize
its allocable share of the Operating Partnership's income. No assurance can be
provided, however, that the IRS will not challenge its status as a partnership
for federal income tax purposes, or that a court would not sustain such a
challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating the Operating Partnership as
a corporation for tax purposes, we would fail to meet the income tests and
certain of the asset tests applicable to REITs and, accordingly, cease to
qualify as a REIT. If the Operating Partnership fails to qualify as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes or we fail to qualify as a REIT,
either failure would cause an event of default under our credit facility that,
in turn, could constitute an event of default under our outstanding debt
securities. Also, the failure of the Operating Partnership to qualify as a
partnership would cause it to become subject to federal and state corporate
income tax, which would reduce significantly the amount of cash available for
debt service and for distribution to its partners, including us. Finally, the
classification of the Operating Partnership as a corporation would cause us to
recognize gain at least equal to our "negative capital account," if any.

As a REIT, we are subject to limitations on our ownership of debt and equity
securities. Subject to the exceptions discussed in this paragraph, a REIT is
prohibited from owning securities in any one issuer to the extent that the
value of those securities exceeds 5% of the value of the REIT's total assets or
the securities owned

30



by the REIT represent more than 10% of the issuer's outstanding voting
securities or more than 10% of the value of the issuer's outstanding
securities. A REIT is permitted to own securities of a subsidiary in an amount
that exceeds the 5% value test and the 10% vote or value test if the subsidiary
elects to be a "taxable REIT subsidiary," which is taxable as a corporation.
However, a REIT may not own securities of taxable REIT subsidiaries that
represent in the aggregate more than 20% of the value of the REIT's total
assets. Effective January 1, 2001, each of Fernwood, Rockledge and HMT Lessee
has elected to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary.

Our taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to special rules that may result
in increased taxes. Several Internal Revenue Code provisions ensure that a
taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to an appropriate level of federal income
taxation. For example, a taxable REIT subsidiary is limited in its ability to
deduct interest payments made to an affiliated REIT. In addition, the REIT has
to pay a 100% penalty tax on some payments that it receives if the economic
arrangements between the REIT and the taxable REIT subsidiary are not
comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties.

We may be required to pay a penalty tax upon the sale of a hotel. The
federal income tax provisions applicable to REITs provide that any gain
realized by a REIT on the sale of property held as inventory or other property
held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business is
treated as income from a "prohibited transaction" that is subject to a 100%
penalty tax. Under existing law, whether property, including hotels, is held as
inventory or primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business
is a question of fact that depends upon all of the facts and circumstances with
respect to the particular transaction. The Operating Partnership intends that
it and its subsidiaries will hold the hotels for investment with a view to
long-term appreciation, to engage in the business of acquiring and owning
hotels and to make occasional sales of hotels as are consistent with the
Operating Partnership's investment objectives. We cannot assure you, however,
that the IRS might not contend that one or more of these sales is subject to
the 100% penalty tax.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We believe all of the lawsuits in which we are a defendant, including the
following lawsuits, are without merit and we intend to defend vigorously
against such claims; however, no assurance can be given as to the outcome of
any of the lawsuits.

Marriott Hotel Properties II Limited Partnership (MHP II). Limited partners
of MHP II filed putative class action lawsuits in Palm Beach County Circuit
Court on May 10, 1996, Leonard Rosenblum, as Trustee of the Sylvia Bernice
Rosenblum Trust, et. al. v. Marriott MHP Two Corporation, et. al., Case No.
CL-96-4087-AD, and, in the Delaware Court of Chancery on April 24, 1996, Cary
W. Salter, Jr., et. al. v. MHP II Acquisition Corp., et. al., respectively,
against Host REIT and certain of its affiliates alleging that the defendants
violated their fiduciary duties and engaged in fraud and coercion in connection
with the 1996 tender offer for MHP II units and with our acquisition of MHP II
during the 1998 REIT conversion. The plaintiffs in these actions are seeking
unspecified damages.

In the Florida case, the defendants removed the case to the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Florida and, after hearings on
various procedural motions, the District Court remanded the case to state court
on July 25, 1998.

In the Delaware case, the Delaware Court of Chancery initially granted the
plaintiffs' motion to voluntarily dismiss the case with the proviso that the
plaintiffs could refile in the aforementioned action in federal court in
Florida. After the District Court's remand of the Florida action back to
Florida state court, two of the three original Delaware plaintiffs asked the
Court of Chancery to reconsider its order granting their voluntary dismissal.
The Court of Chancery refused to allow the plaintiffs to join the Florida
action and, instead, reinstated the Delaware case, now styled In Re Marriott
Hotel Properties II Limited Partnership Unitholders Litigation, Consolidated
Civil Action No. 14961. On January 29, 1999, Cary W. Salter, one of the
original plaintiffs, alone

31



filed an Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint in the Delaware action. On
January 24, 2000, the Delaware Court of Chancery issued a memorandum opinion in
which the court dismissed all but one of the plaintiff's claims, which
remaining claim concerns the adequacy of disclosure during the initial tender
offer. On October 22, 2001, we entered into a settlement agreement with respect
to the two above-referenced cases. At a fairness hearing held on February 22,
2002, the Florida court gave final approval to the settlement. The Court of
Chancery subsequently dismissed the Delaware case.

A subsequent lawsuit, Accelerated High Yield Growth Fund, Ltd., et al. v.
HMC Hotel Properties II Limited Partnership, et. al., C.A. No. 18254NC, was
filed on August 23, 2000 in the Delaware Court of Chancery by the MacKenzie
Patterson group of funds, one of the three original Delaware plaintiffs,
against Host REIT and certain of its affiliates alleging breach of contract,
fraud and coercion in connection with the acquisition of MHP II during the 1998
REIT conversion. The plaintiffs allege that our acquisition of MHP II by merger
in connection with the REIT conversion violated the partnership agreement and
that our subsidiary acting as the general partner of MHP II breached its
fiduciary duties by allowing the merger to occur. The settlement referenced
above resolves all claims of MHP II's limited partners against Host REIT and
its affiliates with the exception of the claims of the MacKenzie Patterson
group. The MacKenzie Patterson group elected to opt out of the settlement class
with respect to its 28 limited partner units. Discovery is proceeding in this
case.

Mutual Benefit Chicago Marriott Suite Hotel Partners, L.P. ("O'Hare
Suites"). On October 5, 2000, Joseph S. Roth and Robert M. Niedelman, limited
partners in O'Hare Suites, filed a putative class action lawsuit, Joseph S.
Roth, et al., v. MOHS Corporation, et al., Case No. 00CH14500, in the Circuit
Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division, against Host REIT, Host LP,
Marriott International, and MOHS Corporation, a subsidiary of Host LP and a
former general partner of O'Hare Suites. The plaintiffs allege that an improper
calculation of the hotel manager's incentive management fees resulted in
inappropriate payments in 1997 and 1998, and, consequently, in an inadequate
appraised value for their limited partner units in connection with the
acquisition of O'Hare Suites during the 1998 REIT conversion. The plaintiffs
are seeking damages of approximately $13 million. On August 28, 2001, the
plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint, which did not include Marriott
International as a defendant. We responded by filing a motion to dismiss based
on the plaintiffs' lack of standing to bring a derivative action under Rhode
Island law. At a hearing held on December 10, 2001, the court denied this
motion and we sought leave to file an appeal. The court granted leave to appeal
on March 15, 2002, and we are pursuing the appeal.

Swissotel. On June 22, 2001, Swissotel Management (USA) L.L.C.
("Swissotel") filed a lawsuit against Host REIT, and five of our subsidiaries,
regarding the hotel management agreements between Swissotel and BRE/Swiss LLC,
dated August 1, 1997 (the "Management Agreements"). The Management Agreements
relate to the Swissotel hotels in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, and New York (the
"Hotels").

On January 18, 2001, we informed Swissotel that reports received from
engineering consultants hired by us to inspect the New York hotel established
that Swissotel failed to meet its responsibilities to operate and maintain the
New York hotel in accordance with a first-class hotel standard. In response to
this notice, Swissotel filed a lawsuit seeking declaratory relief, but later
agreed to arbitrate the matter as required by the management agreement for the
New York hotel. On May 18, we informed Swissotel that a performance shortfall
existed under the Management Agreements for fiscal year 2000. A week later, on
May 25, we declared that Swissotel was in default under the Management
Agreements due to deficiencies in its accounting practices. In addition, we
informed Swissotel that we were withholding our consent to the sale of its
management business to Raffles International. Notwithstanding this latter
notice, Swissotel and Raffles closed on their proposed transaction during the
first week of June.

In response to the performance shortfall and accounting notices, Swissotel
filed a second lawsuit seeking declarations that it is not in violation of the
Management Agreements. In addition, Swissotel has demanded arbitration of those
issues which are arbitrable under the Management Agreements. Swissotel argues
that its accounting practices were, and are, in accordance with the
requirements of the Management Agreements.

32



Swissotel also claims that the performance of the Hotels in fiscal year 2000
exceeded the performance standard described in the Management Agreements.
Swissotel maintains that the May 18 and 25 letters have no force and effect,
and that no event of default can be declared under the Management Agreements.
On July 25, 2001, the defendants filed answers to the complaint and
counterclaims against Swissotel and Raffles for breach of contract and tortuous
interference, respectively. In addition, we responded to the arbitration demand
by denying that any of the issues raised by Swissotel are arbitrable under the
Management Agreements. Swissotel filed an amended complaint on August 14, 2001.
We subsequently participated in settlement discussions with Swissotel and
entered into a confidentiality agreement and a standstill agreement which,
unless extended, will expire on March 22, 2002. Absent settlement or an
extension of the standstill agreement, our response to Swissotel's amended
complaint will be due on April 10, 2002.

PART II

Item 5. Market for our common stock and related shareholder matters

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Chicago Stock
Exchange, the Pacific Stock Exchange and the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and is
traded under the symbol "HMT." The following table sets forth, for the fiscal
periods indicated, the high and low sales prices per share of our common stock
as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape.



High Low
------ ------

2000
1st Quarter. $ 9.56 $ 8.06
2nd Quarter. 10.94 8.69
3rd Quarter. 11.50 9.31
4th Quarter. 12.94 10.00

2001
1st Quarter. $13.75 $11.82
2nd Quarter. 13.89 11.45
3rd Quarter. 13.48 12.15
4th Quarter. 11.76 6.45


We paid quarterly cash distributions on our common stock of $0.26 per share
for each of the first three quarters of 2001 for total distributions of $0.78
per share. As a result of the decline in our operations disclosed herein, we
believe that we distributed the amount of taxable income necessary for 2001 to
qualify as a REIT. Therefore, our Board of Directors did not declare a dividend
on our common stock for the fourth quarter of 2001. During 2000, we paid
quarterly cash distributions on our common stock of $0.21, $0.21, $0.23 and
$0.26 per share.

As of March 1, 2002, there were approximately 107,000 individual
participants in security position listings and approximately 2,664 holders of
OP Units, each of which is redeemable for cash, or, at our election,
convertible into common stock.

For several technical reasons relating to the federal income tax law, our
ability to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code is facilitated by
limiting the number of shares of our stock that a person may own. Primarily
because the Board of Directors believes it is desirable for us to qualify as a
REIT, our Articles of Incorporation provide that, subject to limited
exceptions, no person or persons acting as a group may own, or be deemed to own
by virtue of the attribution provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, more than
9.8% of the lesser of the number or value of shares of common stock
outstanding; or 9.8% of the lesser of the number or value of the issued and
outstanding preferred or other shares of any class or series of our stock.

The Board of Directors has the authority to increase the ownership limit
from time to time, but does not have the authority to do so to the extent that
after giving effect to such increase, five beneficial owners of capital stock
could beneficially own in the aggregate more than 49.5% of the outstanding
capital stock. These limitations on the ownership of our stock could delay,
defer or prevent a takeover or other transaction in which holders of some, or a
majority, of our common stock might receive a premium for their common stock
over the then prevailing market price or which our shareholders might believe
to be otherwise in their best interest.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

The following table presents certain selected historical financial data of
us and our predecessor, which has been derived from audited consolidated
financial statements for the fiscal years 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

The historical information contained in the following table for our 2001,
1998 and 1997 operations relate to an operating entity which owned and operated
its hotels, while during 1999 and 2000 we owned the hotels but leased them to
third-party lessees, thus receiving rental payments. As a result of the
acquisition by our wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary of the leasehold
interests with respect to 120 of our full-service hotels, our consolidated
operations in 2001 present property-level revenues and expenses rather than
rental income from lessees. For a comparison of hotel level sales for fiscal
years 1999 through 2001, please see the tables presenting comparable periods in
our "Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial
Condition--Results of Operations".

- --------
(1) The Internal Revenue Code requires REITs to file their income tax return on
a calendar year basis. Accordingly, in 1998 we changed our fiscal year end
to December 31 for both financial and tax reporting requirements.
Previously, our fiscal year ended on the Friday nearest to December 31. As
a result of this change, the results of operations for 15 hotels not
managed by Marriott International were adjusted in 1998 to include 13
months of operations (December 1997 through December 1998) and therefore
are not comparable to fiscal year 1997 which included 12 months of
operations. The additional month of operations in 1998 increased our
revenues by $44 million.
(2) The historical financial data for fiscal years 1998 and 1997 reflect as
discontinued operations our senior living business that we formerly
conducted but disposed of in the spin-off of Crestline as part of the REIT
conversion. We recorded income from the discontinued operations, net of
taxes, of $6 million in fiscal year 1998.
(3) Historical revenues for 2000 and 1999 primarily represent rental income
generated by our leases, primarily with Crestline. Periods prior to 1999
represent gross hotel sales because our leases were not in effect until
January 1, 1999. Effective January 1, 2001, we acquired ownership of the
leasehold interests in 116 of our full-service hotels from Crestline.
Accordingly, our results of operations for 2001 reflect this acquisition by
presenting hotel level revenues rather than rental income. Beginning with
the third quarter of 2001, hotel level revenues were recorded for an
additional four full-service hotels as a result of the acquisition of three
leasehold interests from Wyndham and the final leasehold interest from
Crestline. Revenues for fiscal years 2000, 1999, 1998 and 1997 have also
been adjusted to reclassify interest income, net gains on property
transactions, and equity in earnings of affiliates below operating profit
to be consistent with our 2001 statement of operations presentation.

36



(4) During 2001, we recorded an extraordinary loss of $1 million in connection
with the refinancing of the mortgage debt on our Canadian properties and an
extraordinary loss of $1 million related to the extinguishment of the
outstanding balance on the term loan component of the bank credit facility.
During 2000, we recorded an extraordinary loss of $2 million in connection
with the renegotiation of the bank credit facility and an extraordinary
loss of $1 million representing the write-off of deferred financing fees in
connection with the repurchase of 0.4 million shares of the Convertible
Preferred Securities. In 1999, we recognized a $14 million extraordinary
gain on the renegotiation of the management agreement for the New York
Marriott Marquis, a net extraordinary gain of $5 million related to the
refinancing of the mortgage debt for eight properties, a $2 million
extraordinary loss related to prepayments on the bank credit facility, and
an extraordinary loss of $2 million representing the write-off of deferred
financing fees in connection with the repurchase of 1.1 million shares of
Convertible Preferred Securities. In 1998, we recognized a $148 million
extraordinary loss, net of taxes, on the early extinguishment of debt. In
1997, we recognized a $3 million extraordinary gain, net of taxes, on the
early extinguishment of debt.
(5) Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by
dividing net income available to common shareholders as adjusted for
potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding plus other dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per
share has not been adjusted for the impact of the Convertible Preferred
Securities for 2001, 2000, 1999 and 1997, as they are anti-dilutive.
(6) 2001 cash dividends per common share reflect quarterly cash dividends of
$.26 per common share paid on April 13, July 13, and October 12, 2001. As
previously discussed, our Board of Directors did not declare a fourth
quarter 2001 dividend. 2000 cash dividends per common share reflect
quarterly cash dividends of $0.21, $0.21, $0.23, and $0.26 per common
share. 1999 cash dividends per common share reflect a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.21 per common share. 1998 cash dividends per common share
reflect the cash portion of a special dividend paid on February 10, 1999.
This special dividend entitled shareholders of record on December 28, 1998
to elect to receive either $1.00 in cash or .087 of a share of common stock
for each outstanding share of our common stock owned by such shareholder on
the record date. Cash totaling approximately $73 million and approximately
11.5 million shares were subsequently issued during 1999.
(7) Total assets for fiscal year 1997 include $236 million related to net
investment in discontinued operations.
(8) Consists of long term debt (which includes senior notes, secured senior
notes, mortgage debt, other notes, capital lease obligations, and a
revolving bank credit facility).

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition

Overview

Host Marriott Corporation, a Maryland corporation, operating through an
umbrella partnership structure, is the owner of hotel properties. We operate as
a self-managed and self-administered REIT with our operations conducted solely
through the operating partnership and its subsidiaries. As of December 31,
2001, we owned approximately 92% of the operating partnership.

Recent Events

On September 11, 2001, two aircraft that were hijacked by terrorists
destroyed the World Trade Center Towers in New York City, and as a result, our
New York World Trade Center Marriott hotel was destroyed. In addition, we
sustained considerable damage to a second property, the New York Marriott
Financial Center hotel. A third hijacked aircraft caused considerable damage to
the Pentagon in Northern Virginia and a fourth hijacked aircraft crashed in
western Pennsylvania. Subsequent to the attacks, the Federal Aviation
Administration closed United States airspace to commercial traffic for several
days, significantly impacting the operations of our hotels during this period.
As described below, the aftermath of these events, together with an economic
recession has adversely affected our operations.

Through our manager, Marriott International, we have both property and
business interruption insurance for our two affected hotels with a major
insurer. We have restored the New York Marriott Financial Center to operating
condition and reopened the hotel January 7, 2002. We are required under our
ground lease with The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to rebuild the
New York World Trade Center Marriott, and our insurance provides for rebuilding
of the asset at replacement cost. Our insurer is a large insurance company with
an A/+ A.M. Best Rating and has accepted responsibility for the claim. In
addition, we are obligated to make payments on behalf of the property,
including ground rent and debt service. We are also liable for severance
payments for employees of both hotels as well as other operating liabilities.
While we expect to receive sufficient insurance proceeds to cover all or a
substantial portion of these and other costs at both hotels and reimbursement
of lost profits, we cannot currently determine the total amount or timing of
those payments. We wrote off the $129 million net book value of the New York
World Trade Center Marriott hotel and recorded a corresponding receivable for
property insurance proceeds due to us under the terms of our insurance contract
and for which we believe receipt is probable . We believe the replacement cost
of the property is substantially in excess of the hotel's previously recorded
net book value. Currently, no gain or loss has been recorded. As of December
31, 2001, the Company has received $5 million in property insurance with
respect to the two hotels. /

The Company also receives business interruption insurance as a result of the
discontinuation of operations of the two hotels. Income resulting from business
interruption insurance will not be recognized until all contingencies related
to the insurance recoveries are resolved. To the extent that we incur expenses
related to the hotels, principally the ground rent due for the New York World
Trade Center Marriott, for which we are still liable and for which we are
entitled to recovery under the insurance contract, we will recognize a
receivable, if we can demonstrate that the receivable is probable of
realization. As of December 31, 2001, the Company has received $12 million in
business interruption insurance with respect to the two hotels.

In the fourth quarter of 2001, RevPAR for comparable hotels showed a
significant decline of approximately 28% when compared to the 2000 fourth
quarter as a result of a decrease in occupancy of 13.4 percentage points and a
decline in room rates of 12.6% due to an economic recession and the reduction
in business travel. During the 4-week period subsequent to the events of
September 11, 2001, our hotels recorded weekly occupancy rates of 38% to 63%.
During that period, we had a very high level of large group cancellations,
which represented a loss of approximately $70 million in revenue. The results
of operations for the fourth quarter have shown steady growth from that point,
reflecting a steady return to more normal business levels; however, they still
remain below prior year levels.

38



We have been actively working with the managers of our hotels to reduce the
operating costs of our hotels as well as to provide economic incentives to
individuals and business travelers in selected markets to increase demand. This
process was accelerated after the September 11/th terrorist attacks. These
initiatives include reducing labor costs, streamlining staffing and service
delivery, reducing hours of operations at hotel restaurants and consolidating
operations by closing unused or unoccupied floors in hotels. /

In addition, based on our assessment of the current operating environment
and to conserve capital, we have reduced or temporarily suspended certain
capital expenditure projects. Our renewal and replacement expenditures for 2001
were $206 million versus $230 million in 2000. For 2002, we anticipate a
further reduction in spending of approximately 10% for renewal and replacement
expenditures.

Dividends. Our policy on common dividends generally has been to distribute
the minimum amount necessary to maintain REIT status. As a result of September
11th and the economic downturn, our operating results and, thus, taxable income
have been greatly reduced. On December 6, 2001, our Board of Directors declared
a $0.625 dividend per share of Class A, B and C Preferred Stock, but did not
declare a dividend on Host REIT's common stock for the fourth quarter of 2001.
The preferred stock dividend was paid on January 15, 2002. Upon a review of our
operating and taxable income on a quarterly basis, we will reinstate the
dividend on our common stock when operations have improved sufficiently so that
our taxable income supports such a payment. It is likely that when the common
dividend is reinstated, it will be meaningfully lower than the level for the
first three quarters of 2001. It is our intention to continue to pay dividends
on our convertible preferred securities and preferred stock. On March 19, 2002,
our Board of Directors declared a $0.625 dividend per share of Class A, B and C
Preferred Stock.

Credit Facility and Senior Notes. Our bank credit facility contains
certain financial covenants related to, among other things, maintaining certain
levels of tangible net worth and certain ratios of EBITDA to interest and fixed
charges, total debt to EBITDA, unencumbered EBITDA interest coverage and
unencumbered EBITDA as a percentage of total EBITDA. Effective November 19,
2001, we amended our bank credit facility to modify these covenants through
August 15, 2002, among other things. This amendment also has resulted in
reducing the availability under the credit facility to $50 million through the
first quarter of 2002 and $25 million for the second quarter of 2002 and placed
additional restrictions on our ability to issue debt or equity, pay dividends
to certain holders of our capital stock, make acquisitions or investments, or
to use the proceeds from asset sales. As of March 1, 2002, there was no
outstanding balance for the credit facility. For a further discussion of the
modified covenants of the bank credit facility, see Risk Factors--"There is no
charter or by-law restriction on the amount of debt we may incur."

We have $3.2 billion of senior notes outstanding as of March 1, 2002. The
balance includes $450 million of Series H senior notes with a fixed interest
rate of 9 1/2% that were issued in December 2001. The proceeds from this
offering were used to repay the majority of the outstanding balance under the
bank credit facility. Under the indenture pursuant to which the senior notes
were issued there are covenants that could restrict our ability to incur
indebtedness, grant liens on our assets, acquire or sell or make investments in
other entities, and make certain distributions to our equity holders. This
restriction would take effect if, after giving effect to any new increase of
debt on a pro forma basis, our consolidated coverage ratio is less than or
equal to 2.0 to 1.0. As a result of the effects on our business of the economic
recession and the events of September 11, 2001, we anticipate that any
consolidated coverage ratio that is calculated under the indenture after the
end of our first quarter 2002 may be less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0. If this
occurs, then we will be prohibited from incurring indebtedness and from issuing
stock (other than certain types of debt specifically permitted under the
indenture) and we would be prohibited from declaring or paying dividends on our
capital stock, other than to the extent required to maintain our status as a
REIT.

Debt and Equity Registrations. In January 2002, our shelf registration for
$1.55 billion of debt and equity was declared effective. We completed this
shelf in order to help expedite future public offerings; however, we currently
do not anticipate accessing the capital markets during 2002. Additionally,
during February 2002, we

39



filed a shelf registration statement for 1.1 million common shares to be issued
to a minority partner in the San Diego Marina Marriott Hotel in exchange for
certain interests in the San Diego partnership. On March 15, 2002, this
minority partner sold the 1.1 million common shares to an underwriter for
resale on the open market. Concurrent with the issuance of the common shares,
the Operating Partnership issued to us an equivalent number of OP Units. This
transaction did not materially impact our ownership percentage in the Operating
Partnership. We received no proceeds as a result of these transactions.

Subsequent to this exchange, other minority partners in the San Diego hotel
have notified us of their intent to exchange additional interests in the San
Diego partnership for approximately 6.8 million OP Units. We expect these
exchanges to close during the second quarter. After completion of these
exchanges the minority partner will own a 10% interest in the San Diego hotel.

Management and Other Agreements. The Company currently is in the process of
negotiating changes to the management and other agreements with Marriott
International and its affiliates. If made, the changes, which remain subject to
the consent of various lenders to the properties and other third parties, would
be effective December 29, 2001. The proposed changes would result in reductions
in incentive management fees on the portfolio of Marriott-managed hotels,
reduce certain expenses to the property, lower our working capital
requirements, clarify the circumstances and conditions under which Marriott
International and its affiliates may earn a profit on transactions with the
hotels, and provide greater approval rights over budgets and capital
expenditures. The Company is also negotiating to expand the pool of hotels that
are subject to an existing agreement that allows us to sell certain assets
without a Marriott International management agreement, and to revise the method
for determining the number of hotels that may be sold without a Marriott
International management agreement or a franchise agreement, in each case,
without the payment of a termination fee. There can be no assurance that the
negotiations will be successful, that the changes will be made in substantially
the form described or that we will receive the necessary consents to implement
these changes.

Marriott International currently has the right to purchase up to 20 percent
of the Company's outstanding stock upon certain changes in control of Host
Marriott. In connection with the Company's negotiations with Marriott
International on changes to the management agreements, we are discussing
terminating this right and clarifying existing provisions in the management
agreements that currently limit the Company's ability to sell a hotel or the
company to a competitor of Marriott International.

Results of Operations

Our historical revenues for 2000 and 1999 represent rental income on leases
of our hotels. Expenses during 2000 and 1999 represent specific owner costs,
including real estate and property taxes, property insurance and ground and
equipment rent. Beginning January 1, 2001, we reported gross property level
sales from the majority of our hotels and, accordingly, our expenses included
all property level costs including depreciation, management fees, real and
personal property taxes, ground building and equipment rent, property insurance
and other costs due to changes in the REIT tax laws which enabled the
subsequent acquisition by the TRS of leases on our hotels previously leased to
third parties (see Business and Properties, "Operating Structure"). As a
result, our 2001 results are not comparable to the historical reported amounts
for 2000 and 1999.

2001 Compared to 2000

Revenues. Revenues increased $2.4 billion, or 171%, to approximately $3.8
billion for 2001. As discussed above, our revenues and operating profit are not
comparable to 2000, due to the acquisition of the lessee entities by the TRS.
Rental income decreased $1.3 billion, or 91%, to $126 million for 2001 versus
2000, reflecting the purchase of the leasehold interests from Crestline with
respect to 116 hotels by the TRS effective January 1, 2001 and the purchase of
four additional lessee entities (three of the lessee entities were purchased
from Wyndham, while the other was

40



purchased from Crestline) effective June 16, 2001. Rental income for 2001
includes: 1) lease income from our HPT leases of $77 million, 2) lease income
earned on five full-service properties of $29 million, 3) lease income earned
on certain FF&E of $14 million and 4) office building rental income of $6
million. For 2002, rental income will include the HPT leases income, rent from
the one remaining leased full-service hotel and the office buildings leases.

The table below presents gross hotel sales for the years ended December 2001
and 2000. For 2000, gross hotel sales were used as the basis for calculating
rental income. The data is presented in order to facilitate an investor's
understanding and comparative analysis of the operations of our properties.

Total hotel sales..... $4,029 $4,509
====== ======


The $480 million decrease in hotel sales for the year ended December 31,
2001 primarily reflects the decrease in REVPAR for our properties of 13.7% to
$105.96. Room sales also declined as a result of the loss of sales from the New
York Marriott World Trade Center and the New York Marriott Financial Center due
to the terrorist acts of September 11. The declines were partially offset by
incremental revenues provided by the 500-room expansion at Orlando Marriott,
which was placed in service in June 2000, and the addition of three hotels as a
result of our consolidation of Rockledge and Fernwood as of March 24, 2001.

The aforementioned decline in REVPAR for the year ended December 31, 2001
compared to the year ended December 31, 2000, of 13.7% to $105.96, was due to
the economic recession and the effects of the September 11, 2001 terrorist
attacks. The decrease is attributable to a decrease in occupancy of 7.7
percentage points and a 4.1% decrease in room rates for the year. As a result
of decreased hotel sales, our hotel managers implemented cost cutting measures
and revenue enhancement programs at the property level during the second
quarter in order to stabilize house profit. These measures include increasing
labor efficiency particularly at the managerial level and in the food and
beverage area at the hotels, reducing discretionary expenses in rooms, food and
beverage, and repairs and maintenance and reducing energy consumption. These
cost cutting measures served to stabilize the profit margins during the second
and third quarters, however, due to continued declines in RevPAR during the
third and fourth quarters, profit margins on our entire portfolio of hotels
decreased 3.0 percentage points for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Other Property-level Expenses. Other property-level owner expenses
primarily consist of property taxes, insurance, and ground and equipment rent.
These expenses increased $6 million, or 2%, to $282 million, for the year ended
December 31, 2001. The increase was primarily due to additional expenses
required as the lessee of the properties. Included in other property-level
expenses is $72 million and $74 million for rental expense on our HPT Lease for
2001 and 2000, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $47
million, or 14%, to $378 million during 2001 primarily reflecting an increase
in depreciable assets. The increase in depreciation expense reflects the
consolidation of three hotels and other equipment as a result of the purchase
of the voting interests in Rockledge and Fernwood. The transaction caused an
increase in depreciable assets of $206 million. The increase in depreciation
expense is also the result of $286 million and $379 million in capital
expenditures in 2000 and 2001, respectively.


41



Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses decreased by $10 million, or 24%, as
a result of our efforts to curb costs in the wake of a more difficult operating
environment during 2001 and a decrease in compensation expense related to
employee stock plans.

Lease Repurchase Expense. In connection with the definitive agreement with
Crestline in November 2000 for the purchase of the leasehold interests with
respect to 116 hotels, by the TRS, we recorded a nonrecurring loss provision of
$207 million. In 2001, as a result of the purchase of four additional leasehold
interests by the TRS, we recognized a loss of $5 million.

Minority Interest Expense. For 2001 and 2000, we recognized minority
interest expense of $23 million and $72 million, respectively. The variance is
primarily due to the decrease in the minority interest ownership from 22% at
December 31, 2000 to 8% at December 31, 2001. The decline is also a reflection
of the decrease in our results of operations. Assuming the Blackstone OP Units
had been converted at January 1, 2001, the year-end minority interest expense
would have been $21 million, or a decrease of $51 million when compared to
prior year.

Interest Expense. For the year ended December 31, 2001, interest expense
increased 6% to $460 million, compared to the year ended December 31, 2000,
primarily due to the issuance in October 2000 of $250 million of 9/1/4% Series
F Senior Notes, which were primarily used to fund the purchase of the leasehold
interests from Crestline and for general corporate purposes. /

Interest Income. Interest income decreased $4 million, or 10%, for the year
ended December 31, 2001, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2000. The
decrease was due to the elimination of notes receivable as a result of the
consolidation of Rockledge on March 24, 2001, the elimination of working
capital notes receivable in connection with the acquisition of the leasehold
interests in 120 hotels, as well as a decrease in the average cash balance
during the year. The decrease was partially offset by interest on a note
relating to the 1994 sale of 26 Fairfield Inns that is recorded under the cost
recovery method.

Equity in Earnings of Affiliates. For the year ended December 31, 2001,
equity in earnings of affiliates decreased $22 million, or 88%, to $3 million.
The decrease is due to the consolidation of Rockledge and Fernwood on March 24,
2001 as a result of the purchase of the 5% voting interests in both entities.

Dividends on Convertible Preferred Securities. Dividends on Convertible
Preferred Securities were unchanged for the year ended December 31, 2001, when
compared to the year ended December 31, 2000, as virtually none of the
securities were repurchased or exchanged for our common stock during 2001.

Provision for Income Taxes. For the year ended December 31, 2001, we
recorded an income tax provision of $8 million, a change of $106 million, from
the $98 million income tax benefit in 2000. The change is primarily due to the
$82 million benefit taken during 2000 due to the recognition of the income tax
asset as a result of the purchase of the leasehold interests with respect to
120 hotels. Also, during 2001 and 2000, we favorably resolved certain tax
matters and recognized $16 million and $32 million, respectively, related
thereto as a benefit to our tax provision.

Extraordinary Loss. We recorded extraordinary losses of $2 million and $3
million during 2001 and 2000, respectively. During 2001 and 2000 the losses
consist of $1 million and $2 million, respectively, representing the write-off
of deferred financing costs and certain fees paid to our lender in connection
with renegotiations of the bank credit facility in each year. Additionally, in
2001, we recorded an extraordinary loss of $1 million representing the
write-off of deferred financing costs in connection with the refinancing of the
mortgage debt of our Canadian properties. In 2000, we recognized an additional
loss of $1 million representing the write-off of deferred financing costs in
connection with the repurchase of 0.4 million shares of the Convertible
Preferred Securities.


42



Net Income. Our net income was $51 million in 2001 compared to net income
of $156 million in 2000. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $.08
and $.08, respectively, for 2001, compared to $.64 and $.63, respectively, in
2000.

Net Income Available to Common Shareholders. The net income available to
common shareholders was $19 million in 2001, a decrease of $122 million when
compared to the same period in 2000. The decrease reflects the previously
discussed decrease in net income, an increase in preferred stock dividends as a
result of the issuance of Class C preferred stock in March 2001 as well as the
$5 million gain on the repurchase of the Convertible Preferred Securities
recorded during the first quarter of 2000.

2000 Compared to 1999

Revenues. Revenues increased $104 million, or 8%, to approximately $1.4
billion for 2000. Gross hotel sales, which is used in the determination of
rental income for 2000, increased $231 million or 5% over 1999 amounts as is
shown in the following table.



Year Ended
-------------------------
December 31, December 31,
2000 1999
------------ ------------
(in millions)

Hotel Sales(1)
Rooms............... $2,877 $2,725
Food and beverage... 1,309 1,258
Other............... 323 295
------ ------
Total sales..... $4,509 $4,278
====== ======

- --------
(1) Gross hotel sales do not represent our reported revenues for 2000 and 1999,
but are used to compute our reported rental income.

Rental income increased $95 million, or 7%, to approximately $1.4 billion
for 2000, primarily driven by the growth in room revenues generated per
available room or RevPAR, completion of the new Tampa Waterside Marriott in
February 2000, and the opening of a 500-room expansion at the Orlando World
Center Marriott in June 2000, partially offset by the sale of five properties
(1,577 rooms) in 1999. RevPAR increased 5.4% to $122.43 in 2000 for our hotels.
Average room rates increased approximately 5.6%, while average occupancy
decreased less than one percentage point for 2000.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $38
million or 13% during 2000, reflecting an increase in depreciable assets, which
is primarily the result of capital projects placed in service in 2000,
including the Tampa Waterside Marriott and expansion at the Orlando World
Center Marriott, partially offset by net asset disposals of approximately $174
million in connection with the sale of five hotels during 1999.

Other Property-level Expenses. Property-level expenses primarily consist of
property taxes, insurance, and ground and equipment rent. These expenses
increased $8 million, or 3%, to $276 million for 2000, primarily due to an
increase in ground lease expense, which is commensurate with the increase in
hotel sales, and an increase in equipment rent expense due to technology
initiatives at the hotels during 2000.

Minority Interest Expense. Minority interest expense decreased $10 million
to $72 million in 2000, primarily reflecting the OP Unitholders' share of the
operating partnership's net income, which decreased $78 million to $207 million
in 2000.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased to $433 million in 2000,
primarily due to the issuance of the Series F Senior Notes in October 2000,
partially offset by the decrease in the outstanding balance of the bank credit
facility during 2000 compared to 1999.


43



Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses increased $8 million to $42 million
for 2000, resulting primarily from an increase in compensation expense related
to employee stock plans.

Dividends on Convertible Preferred Securities. The dividends on the
convertible preferred securities decreased $5 million or 14% for 2000, as a
result of repurchases of 1.5 million shares of the convertible preferred
securities during the fourth quarter of 1999 and the first quarter of 2000 in
connection with our stock repurchase program.

Loss on Litigation Settlement. The Company and Marriott International
closed on the settlement with plaintiffs to resolve specific litigation
involving seven limited partnerships in which we acted as general partner. The
settlement involved an acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2000 of the
limited partner interests in two partnerships by a joint venture between one of
our affiliates and a subsidiary of Marriott International, the contribution by
our subsidiaries of cash and their general and limited partnership interests in
the partnerships to the joint venture and cash payments to partners in the
other five partnerships, in exchange for resolution of claims against all
defendants in all seven partnerships. Our total share of the cash required to
resolve the litigation and purchase the interest in the joint venture,
including amounts paid by our subsidiary, was approximately $121 million. As a
result of the settlement, we recorded a one-time non-recurring, pre-tax charge
of $40 million in the fourth quarter of 1999.

Lease Repurchase Expense. In connection with the execution of a definitive
agreement with Crestline in November 2000 for the termination of the Crestline
leases through the purchase and sale of the Crestline subsidiaries' leasehold
interests by our TRS for $207 million in cash, we recorded a non-recurring loss
provision of $207 million during the fourth quarter of 2000.

Provision for Income Taxes. In connection with the lease repurchase expense
recognized during the fourth quarter of 2000, we recognized an income tax
benefit of $82 million, because, for income tax purposes, the acquisition is
recognized as an asset that will be amortized over the remaining term of the
leases. In addition, during 2000 we favorably resolved certain tax
contingencies and reversed $32 million of our net tax liabilities into income
through the tax provision during the year ended December 31, 2000.

Extraordinary Gain (Loss). During 2000, we recorded an extraordinary loss
of approximately $2 million representing the write off of deferred financing
costs and certain fees paid to our lender in connection with the renegotiation
of the bank credit facility and an extraordinary loss of $1 million
representing the write-off of deferred financing costs in connection with the
repurchase of 0.4 million shares of the Convertible Preferred Securities.

During 1999, in connection with the refinancing of the mortgage and
renegotiation of the management agreement on the New York Marriott Marquis
hotel, we recognized an extraordinary gain of $14 million on the forgiveness of
debt in the form of accrued incentive management fees.

An extraordinary loss of $3 million representing the write-off of deferred
financing fees occurred in July 1999 when the mortgage debt for eight
properties, including the New York Marriott Marquis hotel, was refinanced. In
connection with this refinancing, the interest rate swap agreements associated
with some of the original debt were terminated and an extraordinary gain of $8
million was recognized.

An extraordinary loss of $2 million representing the write-off of deferred
financing fees occurred during the fourth quarter of 1999 when prepayments
totaling $225 million were made to permanently reduce the outstanding balance
of the term loan portion of the Bank Credit Facility to $125 million.

An extraordinary loss of $2 million representing the write-off of deferred
financing fees occurred during the fourth quarter of 1999 when approximately
1.1 million shares of our Convertible Preferred Securities were repurchased
(see Note 6 to the financial statements) and subsequently retired.


44



Net Income (Loss). Our net income in 2000 was $156 million, compared to
$211 million in 1999. Basic and diluted earnings per common share was $.64 and
$.63, respectively, for 2000, compared to $.95 and $.92, respectively, in 1999.

Net Income (Loss) Available to Common Shareholders. Our net income
available to common shareholders in 2000 was $141 million, compared to $216
million in 1999, reflecting dividends of $20 million in 2000 on the Class A and
Class B preferred stock which were issued during 1999, and gains of $5 million
and $11 million on the repurchase of the Convertible Preferred Securities
during 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During 2000 and 2001, we focused on maintaining the strength and flexibility
of our balance sheet in order to allow us the opportunity to selectively choose
investment alternatives that will further enhance shareholder value. As a
result September 11, 2001, we have focused on implementing cost controls,
limiting capital expenditures and maintaining our liquidity and access to
capital markets.

The acquisitions made in January 2001 and June 2001 of the Crestline and
Wyndham lessee entities enable us to better control our portfolio of hotels and
were accretive to our earnings and cash flow during 2001. There can be no
guarantee, however, that we will benefit from similar favorable results in the
future.

As a result of several key actions taken by us in the fourth quarter of
2001, including amending our bank credit facility, issuing $450 million of
senior notes and selling two hotels, we had $352 million of cash at year end,
no outstanding debt on our bank credit facility and no significant debt
maturities until 2005. Although we do not believe we will need to access the
bank credit facility during 2002, we are seeking to implement a new long-term
facility that will be smaller but with less restrictive covenants than our
existing agreement.

Cash from Operations. Cash and cash equivalents were $352 million and $313
million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cash from operations
decreased $244 million to $239 million in 2001, primarily reflecting declining
results of operations due to the 13% decrease in RevPAR for our comparable
properties as previously discussed, in addition to the $208 million paid in
2001 for the purchase of the leasehold interests with respect to 120 of our
hotels.

Cash from Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities was $279
million and $448 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cash used in investing
activities includes capital expenditures of $286 million and $379 million and
cash payments for acquisitions of $63 million and $40 million in 2001 and 2000,
respectively. Cash used in investing activities during 2001 was partially
offset by cash provided by the sale of two hotels of $60 million, discussed
below.

As a result of our efforts to conserve capital, we have budgeted a lower
level of capital expenditures for 2002 as compared to 2001. We estimate that
approximately $185 million will be required for the upcoming year for renewals
and replacements, new investments and other capital expenditure projects. We
expect to fund the anticipated capital expenditure projects from the property
improvement funds as well as from operations.

Capital expenditures include contributions to property improvement funds,
which have been established for certain of our hotels pursuant to the
management agreement in order to provide for the replacement of furniture,
fixtures and equipment as well as non-routine repairs and maintenance which are
normally capitalized. Contributions to the property improvement funds are
generally 5% of gross hotel sales. Capital expenditures also include the costs
for expansion and development projects that are funded through loans such as
the Orlando World Center Marriott that was completed during 2000.

The following table summarizes significant investing activities which were
completed during 2001 and 2000 (in millions).

- --------
(1) The voting interests were previously held by the Host Marriott Statutory
Employee/Charitable Trust. Prior to the acquisition we held a 95%
non-voting interest in each company. As a result of the acquisition we now
consolidate three additional full-service hotels.
(2) During 2001, a total of $5 million of the development cost was expended.
(3) The limited partner interests relate to 7 full-service hotels, and as a
part of the transaction, the leases were acquired from Wyndham with respect
to three of the hotels.
(4) The partnership owns the 772-room JW Marriott Hotel located on Pennsylvania
Avenue in Washington, DC.
(5) Includes the addition of a 500-room tower and 15,000 square feet of meeting
space. During 2000, a total of $39 million of the development cost was
expended.
(6) See below for discussion.

In December 2000, a joint venture formed by us (through non-controlled
subsidiaries) and Marriott International acquired the partnership interests in
CBM I and CBM II, two partnerships owning 120 hotels for an aggregate payment
of approximately $372 million plus interest and legal fees, of which Rockledge
paid approximately $90 million. The joint venture acquired the partnerships by
acquiring partnership units pursuant to a tender offer for such units followed
by a merger of each of CBM I and CBM II with subsidiaries of the joint venture.
The joint venture financed the acquisition with mezzanine indebtedness borrowed
from Marriott International, cash and other assets contributed by us (through
our non-controlled subsidiaries) including Rockledge's existing general partner
and limited partner interests in the partnerships, and cash contributed by
Marriott International. We own a 50% interest in the joint venture and account
for it on the equity method because we do not control it.

For purposes of our investment analysis and the charge for litigation
settlements in our 1999 financial statements, we estimated the value of the
planned investment in the Courtyard joint venture based upon: (1) estimated
post-acquisition cash flows, including anticipated changes in the related hotel
management agreements to be made contemporaneously with the investment; (2) the
joint venture's new capital structure; and (3) estimates of prevailing discount
rates and capitalization rates reflected in the market at that time. The amount
of post-settlement equity of the Courtyard joint venture was considerably lower
than the pre-acquisition equity due to additional indebtedness post-acquisition
offset by the impact of changes to the management agreements made
contemporaneously with the transaction. The investment in the Courtyard joint
venture was consummated late in the fourth quarter of 2000. The Courtyard joint
venture has recorded its investment in the partnership units at $363 million,
which reflected estimated fair value based on: (1) pre-acquisition cash flows;
(2) the pre-acquisition capital structure; and (3) prevailing discount rates
and capitalization rates in December 2000. The factors giving rise to the
differences between our 1999 assessment based on post-acquisition cash flows
and the joint venture purchase accounting based on pre-acquisition cash flows
did not materially affect our previous assessment of expense related to
litigation.

Due to a number of factors, the equity values used in the purchase
accounting for the joint venture's investment were different from limited
partner unit estimates included in the CBM I and CBM II Purchase Offer

46



and Consent Solicitations prepared in early 2000. The solicitations reported
that the value of limited partner units based on an assumed 20 percent discount
rate would be $254 million. The difference between this and the purchase
accounting entry by the Courtyard joint venture is primarily attributed to: (1)
the investment's being consummated almost one year subsequent to the time the
original estimates were prepared ($30 million); and (2) a lower discount rate
(17 percent) and capitalization rate reflecting changes in market conditions
and capital structure versus the date at which the estimates in the
solicitations were prepared ($79 million).

Although we may from time to time sell assets for strategic reasons or to
realize unique market conditions, the factors driving the change in value for
the CBM I and CBM II properties did not have a material impact on other
properties owned by us because our strategy is to buy and hold investments in
real estate. As investments in real estate are accounted for on a historical
basis, the impact of changes in market conditions are not reflected in the
financial statements.

Property and equipment balances include $149 million and $135 million for
construction in progress as of December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000,
respectively. The balance as of December 31, 2001, primarily relates to the
development of the Ritz-Carlton, Naples Golf Resort, which opened on January 4,
2002.

Cash from Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities was
$79 million and $1 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively.

As of December 31, 2001, our total consolidated debt was approximately $5.6
billion. Our total enterprise value was approximately $9.0 billion as of
December 31, 2001 calculated using the fair market value of our long term debt,
plus outstanding shares of our common and preferred stock, shares granted under
the comprehensive stock plans, common and preferred OP Units issuable or
outstanding that are held by minority partners which could be converted, and
mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred securities multiplied by the
closing stock prices on the balance sheet date. Consolidated debt represents
62% of our total enterprise value, compared to 56% as of December 31, 2000.

As a result of the repayment of the outstanding balance on the credit
facility with the proceeds from the Series H senior notes we have substantially
reduced all of our near term maturities, with $148 million in principal
payments due during 2002 and $294 million in principal payments due over the
next three years. The weighted average interest rate of all our debt is
approximately 8.2%, and our current average maturity is six years.
Additionally, 98% of our debt has a fixed rate of interest as of December 31,
2001. However, in order to reduce interest rate risk by taking advantage of
low, short-term interest rates and to maintain a mix of floating and fixed rate
debt, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement (described below),
effective in January 2002, to convert the fixed rate of the Series H senior
notes to a floating rate. If the swap agreement had been effective as of
December 31, 2001, the percentage of fixed rate debt would have been 90%. We do
not have a specific goal relative to our level of variable or fixed interest
rate debt. We will continue to evaluate each debt offering in regards to the
type and timing of payments, maturity date and its overall effect on earnings.
We entered into a separate cap arrangement in January to limit our exposure to
interest rate increases on this floating rate swap (described below).

- --------
(1) On March 27, 2001, we sold approximately 6.0 million shares of 10% Class C
cumulative redeemable preferred stock ("Class C Preferred Stock") with a
par value of $0.01 for net proceeds of $143 million. Holders of the Class C
Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative cash distributions at a
rate of 10% per year of the $25 per unit liquidation preference. Dividends
are payable quarterly in arrears commencing April 15, 2001, on which date
pro rata distributions of $0.03 per Class C Preferred Stock were paid. We
paid two other quarterly distributions of $0.625 per share in 2001, and on
December 5, 2001, the Board of Directors declared the fourth quarter
dividend of $0.625, which was paid in January 2002.
(2) Proceeds from the Canadian mortgage were used to repay the mortgage debt on
the Ritz Carlton, Amelia Island and the Toronto Eaton Centre. See below for
further discussion.
(3) Proceeds from the Series H senior notes were used to repay the outstanding
balance on the credit facility. Additionally, we entered into an interest
rate swap agreement with regards to this principal balance, as is dicussed
below.
(4) For the year ended December 31, 2000, we purchased approximately 4.9
million shares of common stock, 0.4 million shares of the Convertible
Preferred Securities, and 0.3 million OP Units for approximately $62
million.
(5) These transactions represent the refinancing of the prior $80 million
mortgage debt on the Harbor Beach Marriott Hotel.
(6) Proceeds from the Series F senior notes were used to partially fund the
buyback of leases from Crestline and litigation dealing with our Courtyard
partnerships. During March of 2001, the Series F senior notes were
exchanged on a one-for-one basis for Series G senior notes, which are
freely transferable.

We have a bank credit facility, which was entered into in 1998 and has been
subsequently modified in May 2000 and November 2001. The original facility was
for $1.25 billion and matured in three years. In May 2000 the borrowing
capacity under the facility was reduced to $775 million. As previously
discussed, the last modification to the facility was in November 2001, which
reduced the available capacity to $50 million during the first quarter of 2002
and $25 million during the second quarter of 2002, and temporarily amended
certain covenants as a result of the economic recession and the events of
September 11, 2001. Borrowings under the facility bear interest currently at
the Eurodollar rate plus 225 basis points. Additionally, the interest rate
fluctuates based on our leverage ratio. Borrowings under the facility averaged
$248 million in 2001 and $153 million in 2000 and were used for the purchase of
outside partnership interests in our hotels, to partially fund the purchase of
the leasehold interests by the TRS, as well as general corporate purposes. As
of December 31, 2001 there are no outstanding borrowings under the facility.

Historically, our debt has primarily been fixed rate including all of the
previous series of senior notes. We have increased the amount of our exposure
to variable rate instruments on the issuance of our Series H senior notes by
using derivative products. On December 20, 2001, we entered into a 5-year
interest rate swap agreement, which is effective January 15, 2002 and matures
January 2007. Under the swap, we receive fixed-rate

48



payments at 9.5% and pay floating-rate payments based on one-month LIBOR plus
450 basis points, on a $450 million notional amount. The fair value of the
interest rate swap agreement was zero at inception. Under SFAS 133 we have
entered into an interest rate swap which is designated as a fair value hedge.
The requirements for hedge accounting having been met, the swap is recorded at
fair value on the balance sheet with changes in the fair value recorded to the
carrying value of the Series H debt. Additionally, the amounts paid or received
under the swap agreement will be recognized over the life of the agreement as
an adjustment to interest expense. On January 4, 2002, in a separate agreement
with a different counter party, we purchased for approximately $3.5 million an
interest rate cap with the same notional amount which caps the floating
interest rate at 14%. Under SFAS 133 the cap does not qualify for hedge
accounting and therefore will be marked to market and the gains and losses from
changes in the market value of the cap will be recorded in other income or
expense in the current period.

On August 30, 2001, certain Canadian subsidiaries entered into financing
agreements pursuant to which they borrowed $96.6 million due August 2006 at a
variable rate of LIBOR plus 275 basis points. The Calgary Marriott, Toronto
Airport Marriott, Toronto Marriott Eaton Centre, and Toronto Meadowvale Delta
hotels serve as collateral. Since the mortgage loan on these Canadian
properties is denominated in U.S. Dollars and the functional currency of the
Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian Dollar, we purchased derivative instruments
for hedging of the foreign currency investment. Therefore, the subsidiaries
entered into 60 separate currency forward contracts to buy U.S. dollars at a
fixed price. These forward contracts hedge the currency exposure of converting
Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars on a monthly basis to make debt service
payments. This swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge of the principal
payments, and the forward contracts are recorded at fair value on the balance
sheet with offsetting changes recorded in accumulated other comprehensive
income. The fair value of the forward contracts is recorded each period. As of
December 31, 2001, the fair value of these contracts was $1.5 million and were
recorded in other assets.

On February 7, 2001, May 7, 2001 and May 29, 2001, Blackstone and affiliates
("Blackstone") converted 12.5 million, 10.0 million and 18.2 million OP Units,
respectively, to common shares and immediately sold them to an underwriter for
sale on the open market. As a result of the transactions, Blackstone now owns
approximately 1% of the outstanding OP Units of the Operating Partnership and
we increased our ownership in the Operating Partnership to 92%. We received no
proceeds as a result of the transactions.

FFO and EBITDA

We consider Comparative Funds From Operations ("Comparative FFO"), which
consists of Funds From Operations, as defined by the National Association of
Real Estate Investment Trusts, adjusted for significant non-recurring items
detailed in the chart below, and our consolidated earnings before interest
expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items
(including contingent rent) ("EBITDA") to be indicative measures of our
operating performance due to the significance of our long-lived assets.
Comparative FFO and EBITDA are also useful in measuring our ability to service
debt, fund capital expenditures and expand our business. Furthermore,
management believes that Comparative FFO and EBITDA are meaningful disclosures
that will help shareholders and the investment community to better understand
our financial performance, including comparing our performance to other real
estate investment trusts. However, Comparative FFO and EBITDA as presented may
not be comparable to amounts calculated by other companies. This information
should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating profit,
cash from operations, or any other operating or liquidity performance measure
prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Cash expenditures for various long-term assets, interest expense (for EBITDA
purposes only) and income taxes have been, and will be incurred which are not
reflected in the EBITDA and Comparative FFO presentations.

Comparative FFO available to common shareholders decreased $107 million, or
22%, to $370 million in 2001 over 2000. The following is a reconciliation of
income before extraordinary items to Comparative FFO (in millions):

(1) During the REIT conversion, we received a number of units of general and
limited partnership interests in the operating partnership--which we refer
to as OP Units--equal to the number of then outstanding shares of our
common stock, and the operating partnership assumed all of our liabilities.
As a result of this reorganization we are the sole general partner in the
operating partnership and as of December 31, 2001 held approximately 92% of
the outstanding OP Units. The $50 million and $137 million deducted for
2001 and 2000, respectively, represent the Comparative FFO attributable to
the interests in the operating partnership earned by those minority
partners. OP Units owned by holders other than us are redeemable at the
option of the holder, generally commencing one year after the issuance of
their OP Units. Upon redemption of an OP Unit, the holder would receive
from the operating partnership cash in an amount equal to the market value
of one share of our common stock, or at our option, a share of our common
stock.

EBITDA decreased $135 million, or 13%, to $908 million in 2001 from $1,043
million in 2000. Hotel EBITDA decreased $160 million, or 14%, to $959 million
in 2001 from $1,119 million in 2000, reflecting the decrease in hotel operating
results during 2001. As previously discussed, 2001 hotel EBITDA primarily
reflects the revenues and expenses generated by the hotels, whereas 2000 hotel
EBITDA primarily reflects rental income from lessees.

Distributions to minority interest partners of Host LP of $41 million and
$55 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively, reflect cash distributions made
during the year to minority holders of OP Units and holders of certain
preferred OP Units.

Our interest coverage, defined as EBITDA divided by cash interest expense,
was 2.0 times, 2.4 times, and 2.3 times for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.
The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.2 to 1.0, 1.2 to 1.0, and 1.5 to
1.0 in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

Leases. In addition to our full-service hotels, we also lease some property
and equipment under noncancelable operating leases, including the long-term
ground leases for some of our hotels, generally with multiple renewal options.
The leases related to the 53 Courtyard properties and 18 Residence Inn
properties sold during 1995 and 1996, are nonrecourse to us and contain
provisions for the payment of contingent rentals based on a percentage of sales
in excess of stipulated amounts. We remain contingently liable on some leases
related to divested non-lodging properties. Such contingent liabilities
aggregated $57 million at December 31, 2001. However, management considers the
likelihood of any substantial funding related to these divested properties'
leases to be remote.

Inflation. Our hotel lodging properties have been impacted by inflation
through its effect on increasing costs and on the managers' ability to increase
room rates. Unlike other real estate, hotels have the ability to change room
rates on a daily basis, so the impact of higher inflation often can be passed
on to customers. However, the current weak economic environment has resulted in
a decline in demand and has restricted our managers' ability to raise room
rates to offset rising costs.

51



Critical Accounting Policies. Our consolidated financial statements include
accounts of the company and all majority owned subsidiaries. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the
date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. While we do not believe the reported
amounts would be materially different, application of these policies involves
the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties
and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. All of our
significant accounting policies are disclosed in footnote 1 to the audited
financial statements. The following represent certain critical accounting
policies that require the use of business judgment or significant estimates to
be made.

. Revenue Recognition from the sale of real estate. Gains on the sale of
real estate are affected by exposure to continuing involvement with
properties sold and the structure of specific transactions.

. Minority Interest Expense. The allocation of income between us and
outside investors for properties that are not wholly owned is generally
based on stated percentage of ownership by outside interests. However,
judgment can be required when structures of agreements provide for
different allocations among investors for profits, losses, certain
costs, distributions from operations and distributions on liquidations
or when changes in the allocation ratios are required at specified times
or upon the occurrence of certain events.

. Management Fees. Incentive management fees due to managers are accrued
when earned, whether or not paid, based on stated formulas in management
agreements. However, judgment can be required during interim reporting
periods as a result of the change in allocation ratios at specified
times or upon the occurrence of certain events.

. Consolidation policies. Judgment is required with respect to
consolidation of partnership and joint venture entities in the
evaluation of control including assessment of the importance of rights
and privileges of the partners. Currently, we have investments in
entities that in the aggregate own 161 hotel properties and a golf
course, which we record using the equity method of accounting. The debt
on these investments is non-recourse to the company and the effect of
the results of operations is not material. For further detail on our
unconsolidated entities see footnote 4 to the audited financial
statements.

New Accounting Standards. In October 2001, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets" which replaces SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."
The standard provides guidance beyond that previously specified in Statement
121 to determine when a long-lived asset should be classified as held for sale,
among other things. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2001. Additionally, in February 2002 the Financial
Accounting Standards Board resolved an implementation issue regarding SFAS No.
144 dealing with the treatment of sales of properties. Under the new
guidelines, gains and losses from the dispositions of investment properties and
the properties' historical operations for periods beginning in 2002 will be
treated as discontinued operations, and therefore, be classified separately
from income from continuing operations. Historically, we have occasionally
disposed of properties that were not consistent with the overall quality of our
portfolio or presented unique opportunities to realize the asset's value and we
may dispose of additional assets from time to time in the future. This
statement would require us to reclassify results for any future dispositions
previously included in continuing operations to discontinued operations for all
periods presented, although net income would not be affected.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,
"Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." SFAS No. 141 sets forth new standards on business combinations,
eliminating the pooling treatment of accounting for business combinations. SFAS
No. 142 requires additional disclosure of identifiable intangible assets, and
requires that they be segregated from goodwill. Additionally, the statement
requires that goodwill no longer be amortized over 40 years, and that it is
instead impaired as the fair value of the goodwill declines. We have not
accounted for any of our business combinations using the pooling method of
accounting and do not have goodwill or intangible assets at year-end 2001.
These statements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001. We will adopt SFAS Nos. 141 and 142 in 2002 and do not believe
implementation of the statements will have a material effect.

52



In 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an exposure draft
which would rescind SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment
of Debt. The rescission, which would apply to periods subsequent to December
31, 2001, would eliminate the requirement that gains and losses from the
extinguishment of debt be classified as extraordinary items, unless it can be
considered unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. As a result, we
would no longer classify gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt as
extraordinary items and will adjust prior years accordingly.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The Statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative
instrument (including specified derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet measured at its fair value. The
Statement requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized
currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.
Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses
to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement. SFAS No.
133 was implemented on January 1, 2001.

Item 7a. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The table below provides information about the company's derivative
financial instruments and other financial instruments that are sensitive to
changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps and debt obligations.
For debt obligations, the table presents scheduled maturities and related
weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. For interest rate
swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates
by expected (contractual) maturity dates. Weighted average interest rates are
based on implied forward rates in the yield curve as of December 31, 2001.
Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged
under the contract. Weighted average variable rates are presented in U.S.
dollar equivalents, which is the company's reporting currency.

(1) The swap agreement became effective on January 15, 2002.

As of December 31, 2001, approximately 98% of our debt bears interest at
fixed rates. Effective January 15, 2002, we entered an interest rate swap
agreement, and, as a result, the percentage of our debt bearing interest at a
fixed rate decreased to 90%. This debt structure largely mitigates the impact
of changes in the rate of inflation on future interest costs. We have some
financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates,
including our bank credit facility. The interest rate on our bank credit
facility, which had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2001 and $150
million at December 31, 2000, is based on various LIBOR terms plus a spread.
The weighted average interest rate for the facility was 4.4% for the year ended
December 31, 2001 and 9.0% for the year ended December 31, 2000. The credit
facility was repaid in full in December 2001 with the net proceeds from the
offering of the Series H senior notes and a portion of the proceeds from the
sale of two properties.

53



Subsequent to the Series H senior note offering, we entered into an interest
rate swap agreement that effectively converts the $450 million notional amount
from a fixed rate to a floating rate based on 30 day LIBOR plus 450 basis
points. A change in the LIBOR rate of 100 basis points will result in an
additional $4.5 million increase or decrease in interest expense. As discussed
earlier, the swap has been designated as a hedge and changes in the interest
rate over the life of the agreement are recorded as an adjustment to interest
expense. Changes in the fair value of the swap and the notes are reflected in
the balance sheet as offsetting changes and have no income statement effect.

In January 2002, in addition to the swap agreement, we have entered into a
separate interest rate cap agreement with a different counter party that has a
notional amount of $450 million and caps our floating rate interest expense at
14%. Changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the cap. The gains
or losses from the changes in the market value of the cap will be recorded in
other income or expense in the current period.

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The table below summarizes information on instruments and transactions that
are sensitive to foreign currency exchange rates, including foreign currency
forward exchange agreements. For foreign currency forward exchange agreements,
the table presents the notional amounts and weighted average exchange rates by
expected (contractual) maturity dates. These notional amounts generally are
used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract.

On August 30, 2001, Canadian subsidiaries of the operating partnership
entered into a mortgage loan pursuant to which they borrowed $96.6 million
(denominated in US dollars) at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 275 basis points.
In addition, the subsidiaries entered into currency forward contracts to hedge
the currency exposure of converting Canadian dollars to US dollars on a monthly
basis to cover debt service payments. This swap has been designated as a cash
flow hedge of the principal payments, and the forward contracts are recorded at
fair value on the balance sheet with offsetting changes recorded in accumulated
other comprehensive income. The weighted average interest rate for this
mortgage loan was 5.5% for the year ended December 31, 2001. The fair value of
the forward contracts was $1.5 million at December 31, 2001.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To Host Marriott Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Host
Marriott Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and
comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2001. These financial statements and the schedule referred
to below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Host
Marriott Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in the index at Item
14(a)(ii) is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial statements.
This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our
audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in
all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Host Marriott Corporation ("Host REIT"), a Maryland corporation, operating
through an umbrella partnership structure, is primarily the owner of hotel
properties. Host REIT operates as a self-managed and self-administered real
estate investment trust ("REIT") with its operations conducted solely through
an operating partnership, Host Marriott, L.P. ("Host LP" or the "Operating
Partnership") and its subsidiaries.

The Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999 ("REIT Modernization Act")
amended the tax laws to permit REITs, effective January 1, 2001, to lease
hotels to a subsidiary that qualifies as a taxable REIT subsidiary. Prior to
the REIT Modernization Act, certain tax laws restricted REITs from deriving
revenues directly from the operations of hotels, consequently on January 1,
1999, Host REIT leased substantially all of its hotels to subsidiaries of
Crestline Capital Corporation ("Crestline") and certain other lessees as
further discussed at Note 9. However, with the inception of the REIT
Modernization Act, a wholly owned subsidiary of Host LP, HMT Lessee LLC (the
"TRS"), which has elected to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary for
federal income tax purposes, acquired certain subsidiaries owning the leasehold
interests with respect to 120 of the Company's full-service hotels (the "Lessee
Entities") from Crestline and Wyndham International, Inc. and affiliates
("Wyndham"). As a result of the acquisitions, the Company's operating results
reflect property-level revenues and expenses rather than rental income from
lessees with respect to those 120 full-service properties from the effective
dates of the acquisitions. Two of the properties were sold in December of 2001.

As of December 31, 2001, the Company owned, or had controlling interests in,
122 upper-upscale and luxury, full-service hotel lodging properties generally
located throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico operated primarily
under the Marriott, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hilton, Hyatt and Swissotel
brand names. Of these properties, 109 are managed or franchised by Marriott
International, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Marriott International").

Basis of Presentation

On December 15, 1998, shareholders of Host Marriott Corporation, ("Host
Marriott"), a Delaware corporation and the predecessor to Host REIT, approved a
plan to reorganize Host Marriott's business operations through the spin-off of
Host Marriott's senior living business as part of Crestline and the
contribution of Host Marriott's hotels and certain other assets and liabilities
to a newly formed Delaware limited partnership, Host LP. Host Marriott
Corporation, a newly formed Maryland corporation elected to be treated,
effective January 1, 1999, as a REIT and is the sole general partner of the
Operating Partnership. Host Marriott and its subsidiaries' contribution of its
hotels and certain assets and liabilities to the Operating Partnership and its
subsidiaries in exchange for units of partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership ("OP Units") was accounted for at Host Marriott's historical basis.
As of December 31, 2001, Host REIT owned approximately 92% of the Operating
Partnership.

In these consolidated financial statements, the "Company" or "Host Marriott"
refers to Host Marriott Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, both
before and after the Merger and its conversion to a REIT (the "REIT
conversion").

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates. The Company consolidates
entities in which it owns a controlling financial interest (when it

62



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

owns over 50% of the voting shares of another company or, in the case of
partnership investments, when the company owns the general partnership
interest). In all cases, the Company considers the impact on the Company's
financial control or the ability of minority shareholders or other partners to
participate or block management decisions. All material intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenues

Revenue from operations of the Company's hotels not leased to third parties
is recognized when the services are provided. As previously discussed, the
Company, through the TRS, acquired the Lessee Entities in 2001, and as a
result, the Company no longer leases the properties to a third party, or
receives rental income with respect to those 120 properties. Therefore, the
Company's consolidated results of operations for 2001 primarily reflect
property-level revenues and expenses.

The Company's 2000 and 1999 revenues primarily represent the rental income
from its leased hotels. The rent due under each lease is the greater of base
rent or percentage rent, as defined. Percentage rent applicable to room, food
and beverage and other types of hotel revenue varies by lease and is calculated
by multiplying fixed percentages by the total amounts of such revenues over
specified threshold amounts. As of year end 2000 and 1999, all annual
thresholds were achieved.

Accounting for the Impact of the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Acts

The Company is entitled to receive business interruption insurance as a
result of the discontinuation of operations of the World Trade Center Marriott
and the New York Marriott Financial Center, both of which were affected by the
terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Income resulting from business
interruption insurance will not be recognized until all contingencies related
to the insurance recoveries are resolved. To the extent that the Company incurs
expenses related to the hotels, principally the ground rent due for the World
Trade Center Marriott, for which the Company is still liable and for which it
is entitled to recovery under the insurance contract, a receivable will be
recognized, if it can be demonstrated that it is probable that the receivable
will be realized. The Company also has property insurance for these hotels and
while it is expected that insurance proceeds will be sufficient to cover all or
a substantial portion of the costs at both hotels, no determination has been
made as to the total amount or timing of those payments. The $129 million net
book value of the World Trade Center Marriott hotel has been written off and a
corresponding receivable recorded for the property insurance proceeds due under
the terms of the insurance contract, which the Company believes is probable of
receipt. The Company believes the replacement cost of the property is
substantially in excess of the hotel's previously recorded net book value.
Currently, no gain or loss has been recorded.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income less
dividends on preferred stock and an add back of gains on repurchases of the
Convertible Preferred Securities by the weighted average number of

63



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share are
computed by dividing net income less dividends on preferred stock and an add
back of gains on repurchases of the Convertible Preferred Securities as
adjusted for potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding plus other potentially dilutive securities.
Dilutive securities may include shares granted under comprehensive stock plans
and the Convertible Preferred Securities. Dilutive securities also include
those common and preferred OP Units issuable or outstanding that are held by
minority partners which are assumed to be converted. Diluted earnings per
common share was not adjusted for the impact of the Convertible Preferred
Securities for 2001, 2000 and 1999 as they were anti-dilutive. In December
1998, the Company declared the Special Dividend (See discussion at Note
7--"Shareholders' Equity") and, in 1999, the Company distributed 11.5 million
shares to existing shareholders in conjunction with the Special Dividend. The
weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the basic and diluted
earnings per share computations have been restated to reflect these shares as
outstanding for all periods presented.

A reconciliation of the number of shares utilized for the calculation of
diluted earnings per common share follows (in millions, except per share
amounts):

International Operations

The consolidated statements of operations include the following amounts
related to non-U.S. subsidiaries and affiliates: revenues of $62 million, $25
million and $24 million, and income before income taxes of $6 million, $6
million and $8 million in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

64



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. For newly developed properties,
cost includes interest, ground rent and real estate taxes incurred during
development and construction. Replacements and improvements are capitalized,
while repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets, generally 40 years for buildings and three to ten
years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over
the shorter of the lease term or the useful lives of the related assets.

Gains on sales of properties are recognized at the time of sale or deferred
to the extent required by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. Deferred gains are recognized as income in subsequent periods as
conditions requiring deferral are satisfied or expire without further cost to
the Company.

In cases where management is holding for sale particular hotel properties,
the Company assesses impairment based on whether the estimated sales price less
costs of disposal of each individual property to be sold is less than the net
book value. A property is considered to be held for sale when the Company has
made the decision to dispose of the property. Otherwise, the Company assesses
impairment of its real estate properties based on whether it is probable that
undiscounted future cash flows from each individual property will be less than
its net book value. If a property is impaired, its basis is adjusted to its
fair market value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90
days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Minority Interest

The percentage of the Operating Partnership equity owned by outside third
parties, which was 8% as of December 31, 2001 and 22% as of December 31, 2000,
is presented as minority interest in the consolidated balance sheets and was
$102 million and $346 million as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Minority interest also includes outside partnership interests in consolidated
investments of the Operating Partnership of $108 million and $139 million
million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Deferred Charges

Financing costs related to long-term debt are deferred and amortized over
the remaining life of the debt.

Other Comprehensive Income

The components of total accumulated other comprehensive income in the
balance sheet are as follows (in millions):

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


Derivative Instruments

The Company attempts to maintain a reasonable balance between fixed- and
floating-rate debt, using interest rate swaps and caps, to keep financing costs
as low as possible. If the requirements for hedge accounting are met, amounts
paid or received under these agreements are recognized over the life of the
agreements as adjustments to interest expense, and the fair value of the
derivatives is recorded on the accompanying balance sheet, with offsetting
adjustments or charges recorded to the underlying debt. Otherwise the
instruments are marked to market, and the gains and losses from the changes in
the market value of the contracts are recorded in other income. Upon early
termination of an interest rate swap or cap, gains or losses are deferred and
amortized as adjustments to interest expense of the related debt over the
remaining period covered by the terminated swap or cap.

The Company is also subject to exposure from fluctuations in foreign
currencies relating to the four properties operated in Canada and two
properties in Mexico. To manage the exposure to changes in the Canadian
exchange rate, the Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts. Gains and
losses on contracts that meet the requirements for hedge accounting are
recorded on the balance sheet at fair value, with offsetting changes recorded
to accumulated other comprehensive income. Contracts that do not meet these
requirements are marked to market and included in other income each period.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various high
credit-quality financial institutions. The Company performs periodic
evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions and
limits the amount of credit exposure with any one institution.

On January 1, 1999, subsidiaries of Crestline became the lessees of
virtually all the hotels and, as such, their rent payments were the primary
source of the Company's revenues during 2000 and 1999. As a result of the
acquisition of the Crestline Lessee Entities during January 2001 (Note 2), the
third party credit concentration with Crestline ceased to exist. Effective
January 1, 2001 the Company leases substantially all of the hotels to the TRS.

Application of New Accounting Standards

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" which
replaces SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets" to
determine when a long-lived asset should be classified as held for sale, among
other things. Those criteria specify that the asset must be available for
immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to terms that are usual
and customary for sales of such assets, and the sale of the asset must be
probable, and its transfer expected to qualify for recognition as a completed
sale, within one year. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2001. Additionally, in February 2002 the Financial
Accounting Standards Board resolved an implementation issue regarding SFAS No.
144 dealing with the treatment of sales of properties. Under the new
guidelines, gains and losses from the dispositions of investment properties and
the properties' historical operations for periods beginning in 2002 will be
treated as discontinued operations, and therefore, be classified separately
from income from continuing operations. Historically, the Company has
occasionally disposed of properties that were not consistent with the overall
quality of their portfolio or presented unique opportunities to realize the
asset's value and the Company may dispose of additional assets from time to
time in the future. This statement would require reclassification of results
for any future dispositions previously included in continuing operations to
discontinued operations for all periods presented, although net income would
not be affected.

66



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,
"Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other intangible
Assets." SFAS No. 141 sets forth new standards on business combinations,
eliminating the pooling treatment of accounting for business combinations. SFAS
No. 142 requires additional disclosure of identifiable intangible assets, and
requires that they may be segregated from goodwill. Additionally, the statement
requires that goodwill no longer be amortized over 40 years, and that it is
instead impaired as the fair value of the goodwill declines. The Company has
not accounted for any of our business combinations using the pooling method of
accounting and does not have goodwill or intangible assets at year-end 2001.
These statements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001. The Company will implement SFAS Nos. 141 and 142 in 2002 and does not
believe the statements will materially impact the Company.

In 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an exposure draft
which would rescind SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment
of Debt. The rescission, which would apply to periods subsequent to December
31, 2001, would eliminate the requirement that gains and losses from the
extinguishment of debt be classified as extraordinary items, unless it can be
considered unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. As a result, the
Company would no longer classify gains and losses from the extinguishment of
debt as extraordinary items and will adjust prior years accordingly.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The standard
establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that derivative
instruments (including specified derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet measured at fair value. The
standard requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized
currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.
Accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to
offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement. The Company
implemented SFAS No. 133 in 2001.

2. Lease Repurchase

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company, through the TRS, acquired from
Crestline the entities ("Crestline Lessee Entities") owning the leasehold
interests with respect to 116 full-service hotel properties owned by the
Company for $207 million in cash, including $6 million of legal and
professional fees and transfer taxes, effectively terminating the leases for
financial reporting purposes. In connection therewith, during the fourth
quarter of 2000 the Company recorded a non-recurring, pre-tax loss of $207
million net of a tax benefit of $82 million which the Company recognized as a
deferred tax asset because, for income tax purposes, the acquisition is
recognized as an asset that will be amortized over the next six years. The
transaction was consummated effective January 1, 2001.

On June 16, 2001, the Company consummated another agreement with Crestline
for the acquisition of their lease agreement with respect to San Diego Marriott
Hotel and Marina (the "San Diego Hotel"). The purchase price was $4.5 million,
including $1.8 million of legal and professional fees. The TRS acquired the
lease by purchasing the lessee entity, effectively terminating the lease for
financial reporting purposes.

On June 28, 2001, the Company consummated an agreement to purchase
substantially all the minority limited partnership interests held by Wyndham
with respect to seven full-service hotels for $60 million. As part of this
acquisition, the leases were acquired from Wyndham with respect to the San
Diego Marriott Mission Valley, the Minneapolis Marriott Southwest, and the
Albany Marriott by the TRS, effectively terminating the leases for financial
reporting purposes. For purposes of purchase accounting no amounts were
attributed to the leases themselves, as the leases had no value. The entire
purchase price was allocated to the minority limited partner interests
purchased.

As a result of these acquisitions, the Company's consolidated results of
operations, from the effective dates of the transactions, will present
property-level revenues and expenses rather than rental income from lessees
with respect to those 120 full-service properties. Two of these properties were
sold in December of 2001.

Properties, Inc. See discussion below.
(b) Includes investment in 120 Courtyard hotels, 38 Residence Inns and 50
Fairfield Inns (partnership interest was sold during 2001).

On May 16, 2000, the Company acquired for $40 million in cash a
non-controlling interest in the JWDC Limited Partnership, which owns the JW
Marriott Hotel, a 772-room hotel located on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington,
D.C. In 2002, Host LP has the option to purchase the 44.4% limited partner
interest of one of the partners for the lesser of $5.8 million or the fair
value of the interest. Additionally, on or after April 1, 2003, HMC JWDC GP, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Host LP or Quad-JWM LLC, the other general partner,
have the right to require the partnership to purchase the 1% general partner
interest held by Quad-JWM LLC for the lesser of $375,000 or fair value of the
interest. As of December 31, 2001, the fair value of both interests is less
than $1 million.

In connection with the REIT conversion, Rockledge Hotel Properties, Inc.
("Rockledge") and Fernwood Hotel Assets, Inc. (together, "Non-Controlled
Subsidiaries'') were formed to own various assets contributed by the Company to
the Operating Partnership, the direct ownership of which by the Company or the
Operating Partnership could jeopardize the Company's status as a REIT. In
exchange for the contribution of these assets to the Non-Controlled
Subsidiaries, the Operating Partnership received non-voting common stock of the
Non-Controlled Subsidiaries, representing 95% of the total economic interests
therein. On March 24, 2001, the Company acquired, through a taxable REIT
subsidiary, all of the voting common stock representing the remaining 5% of the
total economic interest of the Non-Controlled Subsidiaries from the Host
Marriott Statutory Employee/Charitable Trust. As a result of the acquisition,
the Company began consolidating Rockledge and Fernwood effective March 24, 2001
and therefore they are no longer accounted for as equity investments.

During December 2000, a newly created joint venture (the "Joint Venture")
formed by Rockledge and Marriott International acquired the partnership
interests in two partnerships that collectively own 120 limited service hotels
for approximately $372 million plus interest and legal fees, of which Rockledge
paid approximately $90 million. Previously, both partnerships were operated by
Rockledge as sole general partner. The Joint Venture acquired the two
partnerships by acquiring partnership units pursuant to a tender offer for such
units followed by a merger of the two partnerships with and into subsidiaries
of the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture financed the acquisition with $200
million of mezzanine indebtedness borrowed from Marriott International and with
cash and other assets contributed by Rockledge and Marriott International,
including Rockledge's existing general partner and limited partner interests in
the partnerships. Additionally, the joint venture has approximately $735
million of debt, all of which is non-recourse to and not guaranteed by Host
Marriott, that consists of the following: 1) The $287 million mortgage maturing
April 2012 requiring monthly payments of principal and interest at a fixed
interest rate of 7.865% which is secured by the 50 hotels owned by CBM I. 2)
The $127 million senior notes maturing February 2008 requiring semiannual
interest payments at a

fixed interest rate of 10.75% secured by a first priority pledge of CBM II of
its general and limited partnership interests. 3) The $321 million multi-class
commercial mortgage pass-through certificates maturing January 2013 requiring
monthly payments of principal and interest at weighted average interest rate of
7.8%, which is secured by first priority mortgage liens on the 69 hotels owned
by CBM II. Each of the joint venture's 120 hotels is operated by Marriott
International pursuant to long-term management agreements. Rockledge, currently
a consolidated, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, through its
subsidiaries, owns a 50% non-controlling interest in the Joint Venture and
records the investment under the equity method.

As a result of the consolidation of Rockledge, our investments include a 49%
interest in Tiburon Golf Ventures, L.P., which owns the 36-hole Greg
Norman-designed golf course surrounding the Ritz-Carlton, Naples Golf Resort.
Additionally, we now consolidate the operations of two hotels located in Mexico
City, Mexico, in which we own a controlling interest.

Receivables from affiliates are reported net of reserves of $7 million at
December 31, 2001 and 2000. There were no repayments in 2001, while repayments
were $3 million in 2000 and $2 million in 1999. There were no additional

Senior Notes

The Company currently has six series of Senior Notes outstanding all of
which have been issued under the same indenture. The indenture contains certain
financial covenants that, in the event of a default, would prohibit the Company
from incurring additional indebtedness. These covenants include a ratio test of
aggregate debt to total assets to be less than 65% on a pro forma basis and a
consolidated coverage ratio of EBITDA to interest expense of 2.0 to 1.0.
Failure to meet these covenants would limit the company's ability to incur
additional debt and make dividend payments except to the extent required to
maintain REIT status. As of December 31, 2001 the Company is in compliance with
these covenants.

In December 2001, the Company issued $450 million of 91/2% Series H senior
notes due in 2007. The proceeds were used to repay the term loan and pay down
the revolver portion of the bank credit facility. The December 31, 2001 balance
of the Series H senior notes includes an adjustment for the fair market value
of the related interest rate swap agreement as discussed below.

In October 2000, the Company issued $250 million of 91/4% Series F senior
notes due in 2007. The proceeds were used for the $26 million repayment of the
outstanding balance on the revolver portion of the bank credit facility,
settlement of certain litigation, and to partially fund the acquisition of the
Crestline Lessee Entities. The notes were exchanged in the first quarter of
2001 for Series G senior notes on a one-for-one basis, which are freely
transferable by the holders.

In February 1999, the Company issued $300 million of 8 3/8% Series D notes
due in 2006. The debt was used to refinance, or purchase, approximately $299
million of debt acquired in the partnership mergers, including a $40 million
variable rate mortgage and an associated swap agreement, which was terminated
by incurring a termination fee of $1 million. The notes were exchanged in
August 1999 for Series E Senior notes on a one-for-one basis, which are freely
transferable by the holders.

Bank Credit Facility. The Company has a bank credit facility, which was
entered into in 1998 and has subsequently been modified in June 2000 and
November 2001. The original facility was for $1.25 billion and matured in three
years. In June 2000, the borrowing capacity under the facility was reduced to
$775 million. The last modification to the facility was in November 2001, which
reduced the available capacity to $50 million. The bank credit facility
contains covenants restricting the ability of the Company and certain of its
subsidiaries to incur indebtedness, grant liens on their assets, acquire or
sell assets or make investments in other entities, and make certain
distributions to equity holders of the Company and the Operating Partnership.
The bank credit facility also contains certain financial covenants relating to,
among other things, maintaining certain levels of tangible net worth and
certain ratios of EBITDA to interest and fixed charges, total debt to EBITDA,
unencumbered assets to unsecured debt, and secured debt to total debt.
Borrowings under the facility bear interest currently at the Eurodollar rate
plus 225 basis points. The interest rate on the facility fluctuates based on
the company's leverage ratio. Borrowings under the facility averaged $248
million in 2001 and $153 million in 2000. As of December 31, 2001 there are no
outstanding borrowings under the facility. During 2001, 2000 and 1999, the
Company recognized extraordinary losses of approximately $1 million, $2
million, and $2 million, respectively, representing the write-off of deferred
financing costs.

As a result of the economic recession and the events of September 11, 2001
the operations of our hotels were severely impacted. Certain covenants of the
bank credit facility have been temporarily amended and currently require the
Company, among other items, to: 1) meet less stringent levels in respect to
minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio and minimum unsecured interest
coverage ratio until September 6, 2002 and a maximum leverage ratio through
August 15, 2002, 2) suspends until September 6, 2002 the minimum consolidated
fixed charge coverage ratio test, 3) limits draws under the revolver portion to
$50 million in the first

quarter of 2002 and up to $25 million in the second quarter of 2002 (but only
if draws in the second quarter of 2002 do not cause the aggregate amount drawn
in 2002 and then outstanding to exceed $25 million) and 4) increases the
interest rate charged for borrowing based on higher leverage levels. The
covenants also restrict our ability to: 1) make equity distributions, 2) incur
additional indebtedness, 3) acquire assets, 4) make investments in subsidiaries
and 5) make capital expenditures. The Company is currently in compliance with
all of these covenants.

Mortgage Debt

In October 2001, the Company prepaid the remaining mortgage debt of $16.5
million on the San Antonio Marriott Riverwalk which was due to mature January
1, 2002.

During January 2002, we transferred one of our non-core properties, the St.
Louis Marriott Pavilion, to the mortgage lender. In the first quarter of 2002,
we wrote off the remaining $13 million of property and equipment, eliminated
$37 million of mortgage debt and related liabilities and recorded a non-cash
gain of approximately $22 million.

In August 2001, a Canadian subsidiary of the Company entered into a
financing agreement pursuant to which it borrowed $96.6 million due August 2006
at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 275 basis points. The Calgary Marriott,
Toronto Airport Marriott, Toronto Marriott Eaton Centre, and Toronto Delta
Meadowvale hotels serve as collateral. The proceeds from this financing were
used to refinance existing indebtedness on these hotels as well as to repay the
$88 million mortgage note on The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island hotel. The Company
recorded an extraordinary loss of $1 million during 2001 related to this
refinancing.

In February 2000, the Company refinanced the $80 million mortgage on
Marriott's Harbor Beach Resort property in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The new
mortgage is for $84 million, at a rate of 8.58%, and matures in March 2007.

In August 1999, the Company made a prepayment of $19 million to pay down in
full the mezzanine mortgage on the Marriott Desert Springs Resort and Spa. In
September 1999, the Company made a prepayment of $45 million to pay down in
full the mortgage note on the Philadelphia Four Seasons Hotel.

In July 1999, the Company entered into a financing agreement pursuant to
which it borrowed $665 million due 2009 at a fixed rate of 7.47% with eight
hotels serving as collateral. The proceeds from this financing were used to
refinance existing mortgage indebtedness maturing at various times through
2000, including approximately $590 million of outstanding variable rate
mortgage debt. The Company recorded an extraordinary gain of $5 million during
1999 related to this refinancing.

In June 1999, the Company refinanced the debt on the San Diego Marriott
Hotel and Marina. The mortgage is $195 million with a term of 10 years at a
rate of 8.45%. In addition, the Company entered into a mortgage for the
Philadelphia Marriott expansion in July 1999 for $23 million at an interest
rate of approximately 8.6%, maturing in 2009.

Derivative Instruments

The mortgage loan on the Canadian properties is denominated in U.S. dollars
and the functional currency of the Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian
dollar. The subsidiaries have entered into 60 separate currency forward
contracts to buy U.S. dollars at a fixed price. These forward contracts hedge
the currency exposure of converting

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars on a monthly basis to cover debt service
payments. The fair value of the contracts on December 31, 2001 was $1.5 million.

On December 20, 2001, we entered into a 5-year interest rate swap agreement,
which is effective January 15, 2002 and matures January 2007. Under the swap,
we receive fixed-rate payments of 9.5% and pay floating-rate payments based on
one-month LIBOR plus 450 basis points, on a $450 million notional amount. The
fair value of the interest rate swap agreement was zero at inception. Under
SFAS No. 133 we have designated the interest rate swap as a fair value hedge,
and the amounts paid or received under the swap agreement will be recognized
over the life of the agreement as an adjustment to interest expense. On January
4, 2002, in a separate agreement with a different counter party, we purchased
for approximately $3.5 million an interest rate cap with the same notional
amount which caps the floating interest rate at 14%. Under SFAS No. 133 the cap
represents a derivative that will be marked to market and the gains and losses
from changes in the market value of the cap are to be recorded in other income
or expense in the current period.

During 1999, the Company terminated its then outstanding interest rate swap
agreements and recognized an extraordinary gain of approximately $8 million.

in 1999. Deferred financing costs, which are included in other assets, amounted
to $99 million and $108 million, net of accumulated amortization, as of
December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing
costs totaled $22 million, $15 million, and $17 million in 2001, 2000, and
1999, respectively.

6. Company-Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Securities
of a Subsidiary Trust Whose Sole Assets are the Convertible Subordinated
Debentures Due 2026

In December 1996, Host Marriott Financial Trust (the "Issuer"), a wholly
owned subsidiary trust of the Company, issued 11 million shares of 6/3/4%
convertible quarterly income preferred securities (the "Convertible Preferred
Securities"), with a liquidation preference of $50 per share (for a total
liquidation amount of $550 million). The Convertible Preferred Securities
represent an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the /

74



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

Issuer. The payment of distributions out of moneys held by the Issuer and
payments on liquidation of the Issuer or the redemption of the Convertible
Preferred Securities are guaranteed by the Company to the extent the Issuer has
funds available therefor. This guarantee, when taken together with the
Company's obligations under the indenture pursuant to which the Debentures
(defined below) were issued, the Debentures, the Company's obligations under
the Trust Agreement and its obligations under the indenture to pay costs,
expenses, debts and liabilities of the Issuer (other than with respect to the
Convertible Preferred Securities) provides a full and unconditional guarantee
of amounts due on the Convertible Preferred Securities. Proceeds from the
issuance of the Convertible Preferred Securities were invested in 6/3/4%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the "Debentures") due December 2, 2026
issued by the Company. The Issuer exists solely to issue the Convertible
Preferred Securities and its own common securities (the "Common Securities")
and invest the proceeds therefrom in the Debentures, which is its sole asset.
Separate financial statements of the Issuer are not presented because of the
Company's guarantee described above; the Company's management has concluded
that such financial statements are not material to investors as the Issuer is
wholly owned and essentially has no independent operations. /

Each of the Convertible Preferred Securities and the related debentures are
convertible at the option of the holder into shares of Company common stock at
the rate of 3.2537 shares per Convertible Preferred Security (equivalent to a
conversion price of $15.367 per share of Company common stock). The Issuer will
only convert Debentures pursuant to a notice of conversion by a holder of
Convertible Preferred Securities. During 2001 and 2000, 400 shares and 325
shares were converted into common stock, respectively. During 1999, no shares
were converted into common stock. The conversion ratio and price were adjusted
to reflect the impact of the distribution and the Special Dividend.

Holders of the Convertible Preferred Securities are entitled to receive
preferential cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of 6 3/4% accruing
from the original issue date, commencing March 1, 1997, and payable quarterly
in arrears thereafter. The distribution rate and the distribution and other
payment dates for the Convertible Preferred Securities will correspond to the
interest rate and interest and other payment dates on the Debentures. The
Company may defer interest payments on the Debentures for a period not to
exceed 20 consecutive quarters. If interest payments on the Debentures are
deferred, so too are payments on the Convertible Preferred Securities. Under
this circumstance, the Company will not be permitted to declare or pay any cash
distributions with respect to its capital stock or debt securities that rank
pari passu with or junior to the Debentures.

Subject to certain restrictions, the Convertible Preferred Securities are
redeemable at the Issuer's option upon any redemption by the Company of the
Debentures after December 2, 1999. Upon repayment at maturity or as a result of
the acceleration of the Debentures upon the occurrence of a default, the
Convertible Preferred Securities are subject to mandatory redemption.

In connection with consummation of the REIT Conversion, the Operating
Partnership assumed primary liability for repayment of the Debentures of the
Company underlying the Convertible Preferred Securities. Upon conversion by a
Convertible Preferred Securities holder, the Company will issue shares of
Company common stock, which will be delivered to such holder. Upon the issuance
of such shares by the Company, the Operating Partnership will issue to the
Company a number of OP Units equal to the number of shares of Company common
stock issued in exchange for the Debentures.

The Company repurchased .4 million shares of the Convertible Preferred
Securities in 2000 as part of the share repurchase program described below in
Note 7. No shares of the Convertible Preferred Securities were repurchased in
2001.

7. Shareholders' Equity

Seven hundred fifty million shares of common stock, with a par value of
$0.01 per share, are authorized, of which 263.2 million and 221.3 million were
outstanding as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Fifty million
shares of no par value preferred stock are authorized, with 14.2 million shares
outstanding as of December 31, 2001 and 8.2 million shares outstanding as of
December 31, 2000.

The Board of Directors declared annual dividends of $.78 per common share
and $.91 per common share during 2001 and 2000, respectively. A common share
dividend was not declared during the fourth quarter of 2001, as the Company
believes that it has already distributed the amount of taxable income necessary
for 2001 to qualify as a REIT.

In September 1999, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase, from time
to time on the open market and/or in privately negotiated transactions, of up
to 22 million of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock,
operating partnership units, or a corresponding amount of Convertible Preferred
Securities, which are convertible into a like number of common shares. Such
repurchases will be made at management's discretion, subject to market
conditions, and may be suspended at any time at the Company's discretion. For
the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company repurchased 4.9 million common
shares and .4 million shares of the Convertible Preferred Securities and
redeemed .3 million OP Units for a total investment of $62 million. The Company
spent, in the aggregate, approximately $150 million to retire approximately
16.2 million equivalent shares on a fully diluted basis. No repurchases were
made in 2001.

In August 1999, the Company sold 4.16 million shares of 10% Class A
preferred stock ("Class A Preferred Stock"), in November 1999, the Company sold
4.0 million shares of 10% Class B preferred stock ("Class B Preferred Stock")
and in March 2001 the Company sold 6.0 million shares of 10% Class C Preferred
Stock. Holders of all classes of the preferred stock are entitled to receive
cumulative cash dividends at a rate of 10% per annum of the $25.00 per share
liquidation preference. Dividends are payable quarterly in arrears commencing
October 15, 1999, January 15, 2000 and April 15, 2001 for the each class of the
Preferred Stock, respectively. After August 3, 2004, April 29, 2005, and March
27, 2006, respectively, the Company has the option to redeem the Class A
Preferred Stock, Class B Preferred Stock and Class C Preferred Stock, for
$25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the date of redemption.
The preferred stock classes rank senior to the common stock and the authorized
Series A Junior Participating preferred stock (discussed below), and on a
parity with each other. The preferred stockholders generally have no voting
rights. Accrued preferred dividends at December 31, 2001 were $8.8 million.

In conjunction with the REIT Conversion, the Operating Partnership issued
approximately 73.5 million OP Units which are convertible into cash or shares
of Host Marriott common stock, at Host Marriott's option. On May 29, May 7 and
February 7, 2001, Blackstone and affiliates ("Blackstone") converted 18.2
million, 10.0 million and 12.5 million OP Units, respectively, to common shares
and immediately sold them to an underwriter for sale on the open market. As a
result of this transaction, Blackstone's ownership interest was reduced to
approximately 1% of the outstanding OP Units of the Operating Partnership, and
the Company increased its ownership in the Operating Partnership to
approximately 92% of the outstanding OP Units. The Company received no proceeds
as a result of these transactions. Approximately 21.6 million and 63.6 million
of the OP Units were owned by outside parties as of December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

In November 1998, the Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan
(as amended December 24, 1998) under which a dividend of one preferred stock
purchase right was distributed for each outstanding share of the Company's
common stock. Each right when exercisable entitles the holder to buy 1/1,000th
of a share of a Series A junior participating preferred stock of the Company at
an exercise price of $55 per share, subject to

76



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

adjustment. The rights are exercisable 10 days after a person or group acquired
beneficial ownership of at least 20%, or began a tender or exchange offer for
at least 20%, of the Company's common stock. Shares owned by a person or group
on November 3, 1998 and held continuously thereafter were exempt for purposes
of determining beneficial ownership under the rights plan. The rights are
non-voting and expire on November 22, 2008, unless exercised or previously
redeemed by the Company for $.005 each. If the Company was involved in a merger
or certain other business combinations not approved by the Board of Directors,
each right entitles its holder, other than the acquiring person or group, to
purchase common stock of either the Company or the acquiror having a value of
twice the exercise price of the right.

Special Dividend

On December 18, 1998, in connection with the Company's REIT conversion, the
Board of Directors declared a special dividend which entitled shareholders of
record on December 28, 1998 to elect to receive either $1.00 in cash or .087 of
a share of common stock of the Company for each outstanding share of the
Company's common stock owned by such shareholder on the record date (the
"Special Dividend"). Cash totaling $73 million and 11.5 million shares of
common stock that were elected in the Special Dividend were paid and/or issued
in 1999.

8. Income Taxes

In December 1998, the Company restructured itself to enable the Company to
qualify for treatment as a REIT effective January 1, 1999, pursuant to the U.S.
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In general, a corporation that
elects REIT status and meets certain tax law requirements regarding
distribution of its taxable income to its shareholders as prescribed by
applicable tax laws and complies with certain other requirements (relating
primarily to the nature of its assets and the sources of its revenues) is not
subject to Federal income taxation on its operating income to the extent it
distributes at least 90% (95% for tax years prior to 2001) of its taxable
income. In 2001 and 2000, the Company distributed 100% of its taxable income to
its common and preferred shareholders. Dividends to common shareholders totaled
$.78 and $.91 per outstanding share in 2001 and 2000, respectively. Of the 2001
common stock dividend, $.49 was taxable as ordinary income, $.04 was taxable as
a capital gain and the remaining $.25 was a return of capital. The entire 2000
distribution was taxable as ordinary income. Accordingly, the Company does not
believe that it will be liable for current income taxes at the Federal level or
in most of the states in which it operates. However, the Company is required to
pay taxes on "built-in gains" on sales of certain of its assets, if any.
Additionally, the Company's consolidated taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject
to Federal and state income tax. The consolidated income tax provision
includes, primarily, the tax provision related to the operations of the TRS,
Rockledge, Fernwood and international taxes at the Operating Partnership, as
well as each of their respective subsidiaries.

In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, among other
things, the Company was required to distribute all of its accumulated earnings
and profits ("E&P") to its stockholders in one or more taxable dividends prior
to December 31, 1999. To accomplish the requisite distributions of accumulated
E&P, the Company made distributions consisting of approximately 20.4 million
shares of Crestline valued at $297 million, $73 million in cash, and
approximately 11.5 million shares of Host Marriott stock valued at $138 million.

Where required, deferred income taxes are accounted for using the asset and
liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for
temporary differences between the financial reporting bases of assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases and for operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards based on enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when
such amounts are realized or settled. However, deferred tax assets are
recognized only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be
realized based on consideration of available evidence, including tax planning
strategies and other factors.

income tax refund of $16 million. The Company recorded the refund as a benefit
to the provision in 2001. In addition, the Company settled with the Internal
Revenue Service all other outstanding issues for the tax years through 1998.
The Company made net payments to the IRS of approximately $19 million in 2001
and $14 million in 1999 related to these settlements.

9. Leases

Hotel Leases. Prior to 2001, the Company leased its hotels (the "Leases")
to one or more third party lessees (the "Lessees"), primarily subsidiaries of
Crestline, due to federal income tax law restrictions on a REIT's ability to
derive revenues directly from the operation of a hotel. Effective January 1,
2001, the REIT Modernization Act amended the tax laws to permit REITs to lease
hotels to a subsidiary that qualifies as a taxable REIT subsidiary.
Accordingly, the TRS acquired the Crestline Lessee Entities owning the
leasehold interests with respect to 116 of the Company's full-service hotels
during January 2001 and acquired the Lessee Entities owning the leasehold
interest with respect to four of the Company's full-service hotels from
Crestline (one lease) and Wyndham (three leases) during June of 2001. As a
result, the Company's revenues now reflect hotel level sales instead of rental
income.

Each Lessee is responsible for paying all of the expenses of operating the
applicable hotel(s), including all personnel costs, utility costs and general
repair and maintenance of the hotel(s). The Lessee also is responsible for all
fees payable to the applicable manager, including base and incentive management
fees, chain services payments and franchise or system fees, with respect to
periods covered by the term of the Lease. The Company also remains liable under
each management agreement.

The Company is responsible for paying real estate taxes, personal property
taxes (to the extent the Company owns the personal property), casualty
insurance on the structures, ground lease rent payments, required expenditures
for FF&E (including maintaining the FF&E reserve, to the extent such is
required by the applicable management agreement) and other capital expenditures.

Crestline Guarantees. During 1999 and 2000, Crestline and certain of its
subsidiaries, as lessees under virtually all of the hotel leases, entered into
limited guarantees of the Lease obligations of each Lessee. The full-service
hotel leases were grouped into four lease pools (determined on the basis of the
term of the particular Lease with all leases having generally the same lease
term placed in the same "pool"). As a result of the acquisition of the Lessee
Entities in 2001 by the TRS, there no longer is a third party credit
concentration. Separate financial statements for the years ended December 31,
2000 and 1999 for each of the four lease pools in which the Company's hotels
were organized are presented in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

79



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


The Operating Partnership sold the existing working capital to the
applicable Lessee upon the commencement of the Lease at a price equal to the
fair market value of such assets. The purchase price was represented by a note
evidencing a loan that bore interest at a rate of 5.12%. As of December 31,
2000 and 1999, the note receivable from Crestline for working capital was $91
million and $90 million, respectively. In connection with the acquisitions of
the Lessee Entities, the working capital was acquired by the TRS.

Hospitality Properties Trust Relationship. In a series of related
transactions in 1995 and 1996, the Company sold and leased back 53 of its
Courtyard properties and 18 of its Residence Inns to Hospitality Properties
Trust ("HPT"). These leases, which are accounted for as operating leases and
are included in the table below, have initial terms expiring through 2012 for
the Courtyard properties and 2010 for the Residence Inn properties, and are
renewable at the option of the Company. Minimum rent payments are $51 million
annually for the Courtyard properties and $17 million annually for the
Residence Inn properties, and additional rent based upon sales levels are
payable to the owner under the terms of the leases.

In connection with the REIT Conversion, the Operating Partnership sublet the
HPT hotels (the "Subleases") to separate sublessee subsidiaries of Crestline
("Sublessee"), subject to the terms of the applicable HPT Lease. The term of
each Sublease expires simultaneously with the expiration of the initial term of
the HPT lease to which it relates and automatically renews for the
corresponding renewal term under the HPT lease, unless either the HPT lessee
(the "Sublessor") elects not to renew the HPT lease, or the Sublessee elects
not to renew the Sublease at the expiration of the initial term provided,
however, that neither party can elect to terminate fewer than all of the
Subleases in a particular pool of HPT hotels (one for Courtyard by Marriott
hotels and one for Residence Inn hotels). Rent payable by Crestline under the
Sublease consists of the minimum rent payable under the HPT lease and an
additional percentage rent payable to the Company. The percentage rent payable
by the Sublessor is sufficient to cover the additional rent due under the HPT
lease, with any excess being retained by the Sublessor. The rent payable under
the Subleases is guaranteed by Crestline, up to a maximum amount of $30 million
which amount is allocated between the two pools of HPT hotels.

Other Lease Information. A number of the Company's leased hotel properties
also include long-term ground leases for certain hotels, generally with
multiple renewal options. Certain leases contain provisions for the payment of
contingent rentals based on a percentage of sales in excess of stipulated
amounts. Future minimum annual rental commitments for all non-cancelable leases
for which the Company is the lessee are as follows:

Certain of the lease payments included in the table above relate to

contain one or more renewal options, generally for five or 10-year periods.

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

Future rentals on leases have not been reduced by aggregate minimum sublease
rentals from restaurants and HPT subleases of $48 million and $722 million,
respectively, payable to the Company under non-cancellable subleases.

In conjunction with the refinancing of the mortgage of the New York Marriott
Marquis in 1999, the Company also renegotiated the terms of the ground lease.
The renegotiated ground lease provides for the payment of a percentage of the
hotel sales (3% in 1998, 4% in 1999 and 5% thereafter) through 2017, which is
to be used to amortize the then existing deferred ground rent obligation of
$116 million. The Company has the right to purchase the land under certain
circumstances. The balance of the deferred ground rent obligation was
$65 million and $77 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and is
included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company remains contingently liable on certain leases relating to
divested non-lodging properties. Such contingent liabilities aggregated $57
million at December 31, 2001. However, management considers the likelihood of
any substantial funding related to these leases to be remote.

10. Employee Stock Plans

At December 31, 2001, the Company maintained two stock-based compensation
plans, including the comprehensive stock plan (the "Comprehensive Plan"),
whereby the Company may award to participating employees (i) options to
purchase the Company's common stock, (ii) deferred shares of the Company's
common stock and (iii) restricted shares of the Company's common stock, and the
employee stock purchase plan (the "Employee Stock Purchase Plan"). Total shares
of common stock reserved and available for issuance under the Comprehensive
Plan at December 31, 2001, were approximately $15 million.

Employee stock options may be granted to officers and key employees with an
exercise price not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the
date of grant. Non-qualified options generally expire up to 15 years after the
date of grant. Most options vest ratably over each of the first four years
following the date of the grant. In connection with the Marriott International
distribution in 1993, the Company issued an equivalent number of Marriott
International options and adjusted the exercise prices of its options then
outstanding based on the relative trading prices of shares of the common stock
of the two companies.

In connection with the Host Marriott Services ("HM Services") spin-off in
1995, outstanding options held by current and former employees of the Company
were redenominated in both Company and HM Services stock and the exercise
prices of the options were adjusted based on the relative trading prices of
shares of the common stock of the two companies. Pursuant to the distribution
agreement between the Company and HM Services, the Company originally had the
right to receive up to 1.4 million shares of HM Services' common stock or an
equivalent cash value subsequent to exercise of the options held by certain
former and current employees of Marriott International. On August 27, 1999,
Autogrill Acquisition Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of Autogrill SpA of Italy,
acquired Host Marriott Services Corporation. Since HM Services is no longer
publicly traded, all

81



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

future payments to the Company will be made in cash, as HM Services Corporation
has indicated that the receivable will not be settled in Autogrill SpA stock.
As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the receivable balance was approximately $6.4
million and $8.8 million, respectively, which is included in other assets in
the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The Company continues to account for expense under its plans according to
the provisions of Accounting Principle Board Opinion 25 and related
interpretations as permitted under SFAS No. 123. Consequently, no compensation
cost has been recognized for its fixed stock options under the Comprehensive
Plan and its Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

For purposes of the following disclosures required by SFAS No. 123, the fair
value of each option granted has been estimated on the date of grant using an
option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for
grants in 2001 and 2000, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 5.2% and
5.1%, volatility of 37% and 32%, expected lives of 12 years, and dividend yield
of $.78 per share and $0.91 per share. The weighted average fair value per
option granted during the year was $2.73 in 2001 and $1.06 in 2000. Pro forma
compensation cost for 2001, 2000 and 1999 would have reduced net income by
approximately $855,000, $811,000 and $919,000, respectively. Basic and diluted
earnings per share on a pro forma basis were not impacted by the pro forma
compensation cost in 2001, 2000 and 1999.

The effects of the implementation of SFAS No. 123 are not representative of
the effects on reported net income in future years because only the effects of
stock option awards granted in 1997 and subsequent years have been considered.

A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plans that have been
approved by the stockholders for 2001, 2000 and 1999 follows. The Company does
not have stock option plans that have not been approved by the Company's
stockholders:

Deferred stock incentive plan shares granted to officers and key employees
after 1990 generally vest over 10 years in annual installments commencing one
year after the date of grant. Certain employees may elect to defer payments
until termination or retirement. The Company accrues compensation expense for
the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, less estimated
forfeitures. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, 23,000, 20,000 and 11,000 shares were
granted, respectively, under this plan. The compensation cost that has been
charged against income for deferred stock was not material in 2001, 2000 and
1999. The weighted average fair value per share granted during each year was
$12.99 in 2001, $9.44 in 2000 and $14.31 in 1999.

The Company from time to time awards restricted stock shares under the
Comprehensive Plan to officers and key executives to be distributed over the
next three years in annual installments based on continued employment and the
attainment of certain performance criteria. The Company recognizes compensation
expense over the restriction period equal to the fair market value of the
shares on the date of issuance adjusted for forfeitures, and where appropriate,
the level of attainment of performance criteria and fluctuations in the fair
market value of the Company's common stock. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, 130,000,
889,000, and 3,203,000 shares of restricted stock plan shares were granted to
certain key employees under these terms and conditions. Approximately 593,000
and 106,000 shares were forfeited in 2001 and 2000, respectively. The Company
recorded compensation expense of $7.6 million, $11 million and $7.7 million in
2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, related to these awards. The weighted
average grant date fair value per share granted during each year was $12.82 in
2001, $8.87 in 2000 and $12.83 in 1999. Under these awards 2,010,000 shares
were outstanding at December 31, 2001.

In 1998, 568,408 stock appreciation rights ("SARs") were issued under the
Comprehensive Plan to certain directors of the Company as a replacement for
previously issued options that were cancelled during the year. The conversion
to SARs was completed in order to comply with ownership limits applicable to
the Company upon conversion to a REIT. The SARs are fully vested and the grant
prices range from $1.20 to $5.13. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company
recognized compensation (income) expense for outstanding SARs as a result of
fluctuations in the market price of the Company's common stock of $(1.2)
million, $1.4 million and $(2.7) million, respectively.

Under the terms of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, eligible employees may
purchase common stock through payroll deductions at 90% of the lower of market
value at the beginning or market value at the end of the plan year.

11. Profit Sharing and Postemployment Benefit Plans

The Company contributes to profit sharing and other defined contribution
plans for the benefit of employees meeting certain eligibility requirements and
electing participation in the plans. The amount to be matched by the Company is
determined annually by the Board of Directors. The Company provides medical
benefits to a limited number of retired employees meeting restrictive
eligibility requirements. Amounts for these items were not material in 1999
through 2001.

12. Acquisitions and Dispositions

Effective March 24, 2001, the Company purchased the 5% voting interests in
each of Rockledge and Fernwood that were previously held by the Host Marriott
Statutory Employee/Charitable Trust for approximately $2 million. Prior to this
acquisition, the Company held a 95% non-voting interest in each company and
accounted for such investments under the equity method. As a result of this
acquisition, the Company holds 100% of the voting and non-voting interests in
Rockledge and Fernwood, and its consolidated results of operations will reflect
the revenues and expenses generated by the two taxable corporations, and its
consolidated balance sheets will include the various assets, including,
primarily, three full-service hotels and certain limited service hotel
partnership interests, including the Joint Venture interest. The Company's
acquisition, including certain joint venture interests, totaled approximately
$356 million in assets and $262 million in liabilities, including $54 million
of third party debt.

On June 28, 2001, the Company consummated an agreement to purchase
substantially all the minority limited partnership interests held by Wyndham
with respect to seven full-service hotels for $60 million. As part of this
acquisition, the leases were acquired from Wyndham with respect to three hotels
by the TRS, effectively terminating the leases for financial reporting
purposes. The entire purchase price was allocated to the minority limited
partner interests purchased.

During January 2002, the Company transferred one of our non-core properties,
the St. Louis Marriott Pavilion hotel, to the mortgage lender. Due to the
original structure of this deal, the Company has not received any cash flow
after payments of debt service from this property since the original spin-off
in 1993. In the first quarter of 2002, the Company will write off the remaining
$13 million of property and equipment, eliminate $37 million of mortgage debt
and related liabilities and record a non-cash gain of approximately $22 million.

In 1999, the Company acquired the remaining unaffiliated partnership
interests in two full-service hotels by issuing approximately 612,000
cumulative preferred OP Units and paid cash of approximately $6.8 million.
During 2000, the holders of approximately 593,000 cumulative preferred OP Units
converted to common OP Units on a one-for-one basis.

During February 2002, we filed a shelf registration statement for 1.1
million common shares to be issued to a minority partner in the San Diego
Marina Marriott Hotel upon the exchange for certain of their interests in the
San Diego partnership. Subsequently, this minority partner sold the 1.1 million
common shares to an underwriter for resale on the open market. Concurrent with
the issuance of the common shares, the Operating Partnership issued to us an
equivalent number of OP Units. This transaction did not materially impact our
ownership percentage in the Operating Partnership. We received no proceeds as a
result of these transactions.

Subsequent to this exchange, other minority partners in the San Diego hotel
have notified us of their intent to exchange additional interests in the San
Diego partnership for approximately 6.8 million OP Units. We expect these
exchanges to close during the second quarter. After completion of these
exchanges the minority partner will own a 10% interest in the San Diego hotel.

During 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, approximately 42,054,000, 652,000

1999 an additional 360,000 and 233,000 OP Units were redeemed for $3 million
and $2 million in cash, respectively. No OP Units were redeemed for cash in
2001.

During 2001, the Company disposed of two hotels (751 rooms) for a total
consideration of $65 million and recognized a net gain of $12 million. During
1999, the Company disposed of 5 hotels (1,577 rooms) for a total consideration
of $198 million and recognized a net gain of $24 million. There were no
dispositions in 2000.

14. Marriott International Distribution and Relationship with Marriott
International

The Company and Marriott International (formerly a wholly owned subsidiary,
the common stock of which was distributed to the Company's shareholders on
October 8, 1993) have entered into various agreements including the management
of the majority of the company's hotels including franchised properties;
financing for joint ventures including the acquisition in 1996 of two
full-service properties for which Marriott International provided $29 million
of debt financing and $28 million in preferred equity and the 2000 acquisition
of two partnerships owning 120 limited service hotels (see below); and certain
limited administrative services.

The Company currently is in the process of negotiating changes to the
management and other agreements with Marriott International and its affiliates.
If made, the changes, which remain subject to the consent of various lenders to
the properties and other third parties, would be effective December 29, 2001.
The proposed changes would result in reductions in incentive management fees on
the portfolio of Marriott-managed hotels, reduce certain expenses to the
property, lower our working capital requirements, clarify the circumstances and
conditions under which Marriott International and its affiliates may earn a
profit on transactions with the hotels, and provide greater approval rights
over budgets and capital expenditures. The Company is also negotiating to
expand the pool of hotels that are subject to an existing agreement that allows
us to sell certain assets without a Marriott International management
agreement, and to revise the method for determining the number of hotels

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

that may be sold without a Marriott International management agreement or a
franchise agreement, in each case, without the payment of a termination fee.
There can be no assurance that the negotiations will be successful, that the
changes will be made in substantially the form described or that we will
receive the necessary consents to implement these changes.

Marriott International currently has the right to purchase up to 20 percent
of the Company's outstanding stock upon certain changes in control of Host
Marriott. In connection with the Company's negotiations with Marriott
International on changes to the management agreements, we are discussing
terminating this right and clarifying existing provisions in the management
agreements that currently limit the Company's ability to sell a hotel or the
company to a competitor of Marriott International.

During December 2000, the newly created Joint Venture formed by Rockledge
and Marriott International acquired the partnership interests in two
partnerships that collectively own 120 limited service hotels for approximately
$372 million plus interest and legal fees (see Note 4). The Joint Venture
financed the acquisition with mezzanine indebtedness borrowed from Marriott
International and with cash and other assets contributed by Rockledge and
Marriott International. Rockledge and Marriott International each own a 50%
interest in the Joint Venture.

As a result of the consolidation of Rockledge, we now have a controlling
interest in the entity Elcrisa S.A. de C.V. that owns two hotels located in
Mexico City, Mexico. Marriott International holds the remaining interest of
Elcrisa S.A. de C.V. and is the manager of the hotels.

In 2001, the Company, as the lessee, paid to Marriott International $162
million in hotel management fees and $6 million in franchise fees. In 2000 and
1999, the fees were paid by Crestline and Wyndham, as the lessees, and totaled
$240 million and $218 million, respectively. In 2000 and 1999, the Company paid
to Marriott International $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in
guarantee fees pursuant to certain debt service guarantees provided by Marriott
International. No guarantee fees were paid in 2001. In 2001, 2000, and 1999,
the Company paid to Marriott International $2 million, $2 million, and $3
million, respectively, for certain administrative services and office
space.

15. Hotel Management Agreements

Of the Company's hotels, 101 are subject to management agreements under
which Marriott International or one of their subsidiaries manages the Company's
hotels, generally for an initial term of 15 to 20 years with renewal terms at
the option of Marriott International of up to an additional 16 to 30 years. The
agreements generally provide for payment of base management fees that are
generally 3 percent of sales and incentive management fees generally equal to
20% to 50% of operating profit (as defined in the agreements) over a priority
return (as defined) to the Company, with total incentive management fees not to
exceed 20% of cumulative operating profit, or 20% of current year operating
profit. In the event of early termination of the agreements, Marriott
International will receive additional fees based on the unexpired term and
expected future base and incentive management fees. The Company has the option
to terminate certain management agreements if specified performance thresholds
are not satisfied. No agreement with respect to a single lodging facility is
cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted to any other agreement and a single
agreement may be canceled under certain conditions, although such cancellation
will not trigger the cancellation of any other agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreements, Marriott International furnishes
the hotels with certain chain services which are generally provided on a
central or regional basis to all hotels in the Marriott International hotel
system. Chain services include central training, advertising and promotion, a
national reservation system, computerized payroll and accounting services, and
such additional services as needed which may be more efficiently performed on a
centralized basis. Costs and expenses incurred in providing such services are
required

86



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

to be allocated among all domestic hotels managed, owned or leased by Marriott
International or its subsidiaries on a fair and equitable basis. In addition,
the Company's hotels also participate in the Marriott Rewards program. The cost
of this program is charged to all hotels in the Marriott hotel system.

The Lessees are obligated to provide the manager with sufficient funds,
generally 5% of revenue, to cover the cost of (a) certain non-routine repairs
and maintenance to the hotels which are normally capitalized; and
(b) replacements and renewals to the hotels' property and improvements. Under
certain circumstances, the lessee will be required to establish escrow accounts
for such purposes under terms outlined in the agreements. To the extent the
lessee is not required to fund such amounts into escrow accounts, the lessee
remains liable to make such fundings in the future. As of December 31, 2001,
the Company is obligated under its management agreements to fund FF&E
requirements in excess of amounts placed in restricted cash accounts of $37
million.

The Lessees assumed franchise agreements with Marriott International for 8
hotels. Pursuant to these franchise agreements, the Lessee generally pays a
franchise fee based on a percentage of room sales and food and beverage sales
as well as certain other fees for advertising and reservations. Franchise fees
for room sales vary from four to six percent of sales, while fees for food and
beverage sales vary from two to three percent of sales. The terms of the
franchise agreements are from 15 to 30 years.

The Lessees hold management agreements with The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company,
LLC ("Ritz-Carlton"), an affiliate of Marriott International, to manage ten of
the Company's hotels. These agreements have an initial term of 15 to 25 years
with renewal terms at the option of Ritz-Carlton of up to an additional 10 to
40 years. Base management fees vary from two to five percent of sales and
incentive management fees are generally equal to 20% of available cash flow or
operating profit, as defined in the agreements and funding of the contractual
amount is not required in the current year.

The Lessees also hold management agreements with hotel management companies
other than Marriott International and Ritz-Carlton for 21 of the Company's
hotels (8 of which are franchised under the Marriott brand). These agreements
generally provide for an initial term of 10 to 20 years with renewal terms at
the option of either party or, in some cases, the hotel management company of
up to an additional one to 15 years. The agreements generally provide for
payment of base management fees equal to one to four percent of sales.
Seventeen of the 21 agreements also provide for incentive management fees
generally equal to 10 to 25 percent of available cash flow, operating profit,
or net operating income, as defined in the agreements.

16. Relationship with Crestline Capital Corporation

The Company and Crestline entered into various agreements in connection with
the conversion to a REIT in 1998.

Distribution Agreement

Crestline and the Company entered into a distribution agreement (the
"Distribution Agreement"), which provided for, among other things, (i) the
distribution of shares of Crestline; (ii) the division between Crestline and
the Company of certain assets and liabilities; (iii) the transfer to Crestline
of the 25% interest in the Swissotel management company acquired in the
Blackstone Acquisition and (iv) certain other agreements governing the
relationship between Crestline and the Company. Crestline also granted the
Company a contingent right to purchase Crestline's interest in Swissotel
Management (USA) L.L.C. at fair market value in the event the tax laws are
changed so that the Company could own such interest without jeopardizing its
status as a REIT.

87



HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


Subject to certain exceptions, the Distribution Agreement provides for,
among other things, assumptions of liabilities and cross-indemnities designed
to allocate to Crestline, effective as of the date of the distribution,
financial responsibilities for liabilities arising out of, or in connection
with, the business of the senior living communities.

Crestline also had other agreements in connection with the distribution
related to asset management services as well as non-competition agreements.
These agreements were terminated effective January 1, 2001 in connection with
the acquisition of the Crestline Lessee Entities.

17. Geographic and Business Segment Information

The Company operates one business segment, hotel ownership. The Company's
hotels are primarily operated under the Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brands,
contain an average of approximately 475 rooms as of December 31, 2001, as well
as supply other amenities such as meeting space and banquet facilities; a
variety of restaurants and lounges; gift shops and swimming pools. They are
typically located in downtown, airport, suburban and resort areas throughout
the United States. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company's foreign
operations were limited to four Canadian hotel properties. Effective March 24,
2001, the Company purchased the 5% voting interest in Rockledge, and, as a
result, foreign operations of the Company included two properties in Mexico
City, Mexico. There were no intercompany sales between the foreign properties
and the Company. The following table presents revenues and long-lived assets
for each of the geographical areas in which the Company operates (in millions):

During 2000, contingent rental revenue was deferred on the balance sheet
until certain revenue thresholds were realized. All contingent rental revenue
previously deferred was recognized and therefore has no impact on the full year
2000 revenues, net income, or earnings per share.

For all years presented, the first three quarters consist of 12 weeks each
and the fourth quarter includes 16 weeks. The sum of the basic and diluted
earnings (loss) per common share for the four quarters in all years presented
differs from the annual earnings per common share due to the required method of
computing the weighted average number of shares in the respective periods.

CCHP I CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

CCHP I Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Delaware
on November 23, 1998 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Crestline Capital
Corporation ("Crestline"). On December 29, 1998, Crestline became a publicly
traded company when Host Marriott Corporation ("Host Marriott") completed its
plan of reorganizing its business operations by spinning-off Crestline to the
shareholders of Host Marriott as part of a series of transactions pursuant to
which Host Marriott converted into a real estate investment trust ("REIT").

On December 31, 1998, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the "Tenant
Subsidiaries") entered into lease agreements with Host Marriott to lease 35 of
Host Marriott's full-service hotels with the existing management agreements of
the leased hotels assigned to the Tenant Subsidiaries. As of December 29, 2000,
the Company leased 34 full-service hotels from Host Marriott.

The Company operates as a unit of Crestline, utilizing Crestline's
employees, insurance and administrative services since the Company does not
have any employees. Certain direct expenses are paid by Crestline and charged
directly or allocated to the Company. Certain general and administrative costs
of Crestline are allocated to the Company, using a variety of methods,
principally including Crestline's specific identification of individual costs
and otherwise through allocations based upon estimated levels of effort devoted
by general and administrative departments to the Company or relative measures
of the size of the Company based on revenues. In the opinion of management, the
methods for allocating general and administrative expenses and other direct
costs are reasonable.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances
between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

Fiscal Year

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest December 31.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less at date of purchase as cash equivalents.

Revenues

The Company records the gross property-level revenues generated by the
hotels as revenues.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Hotel Leases

The Tenant Subsidiaries entered into leases with Host Marriott effective
January 1, 1999 for 35 full-service hotels. See Note 6 for a discussion of the
sale of all but one of the full-service hotel leases in 2001.

Each hotel lease had an initial term generally ranging from three to seven
years. The Tenant Subsidiaries were required to pay the greater of (i) a
minimum rent specified in each hotel lease or (ii) a percentage rent based upon
a specified percentage of aggregate revenues from the hotel, including room
revenues, food and beverage revenues, and other income, in excess of specified
thresholds. The amount of minimum rent is increased each year based upon 50% of
the increase in CPI during the previous twelve months. Percentage rent
thresholds are increased each year based on a blend of the increases in CPI and
the Employment Cost Index during the previous twelve months. The hotel leases
generally provided for a rent adjustment in the event of damage, destruction,
partial taking or certain capital expenditures.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were responsible for paying all of the expenses of
operating the hotels, including all personnel costs, utility costs, and general
repair and maintenance of the hotels. In addition, the Tenant Subsidiaries were
responsible for all fees payable to the hotel manager, including base and
incentive management fees, chain services payments and franchise or system
fees. Host Marriott was responsible for real estate and personal property
taxes, property casualty insurance, equipment rent, ground lease rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures.

For those hotels where Marriott International is the manager, it had a
noneconomic membership interest with certain limited voting rights in the
Tenant Subsidiaries.

FF&E Leases

Prior to entering into the hotel leases, if the average tax basis of a
hotel's FF&E and other personal property exceeded 15% of the aggregate average
tax basis of the hotel's real and personal property (the "Excess FF&E"),

97



CCHP I CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

the Tenant Subsidiaries and affiliates of Host Marriott entered into lease
agreements (the "FF&E Leases") for the Excess FF&E. The terms of the FF&E
Leases generally ranged from two to three years and rent under the FF&E Leases
was a fixed amount.

Guaranty and Pooling Agreement

In connection with entering into the hotel leases, the Company, Crestline
and Host Marriott, entered into a pool guarantee and a pooling and security
agreement by which the Company provided a full guarantee and Crestline provided
a limited guarantee of all of the hotel lease obligations.

The cumulative limit of Crestline's guarantee obligation was the greater of
ten percent of the aggregate rent payable for the immediately preceding fiscal
year under all of the Company's hotel leases or ten percent of the aggregate
rent payable under all of the Company's hotel leases for 1999. In the event
that Crestline's obligation under the pooling and guarantee agreement was
reduced to zero, the Company could terminate the agreement and Host Marriott
could terminate the Company's hotel leases without penalty.

All of the Company's leases were cross-defaulted and the Company's
obligations under the guaranty were secured by all the funds received from its
Tenant Subsidiaries.

Note 3. Working Capital Notes

Upon the commencement of the hotel leases, the Company purchased the working
capital of the leased hotels from Host Marriott for $26,832,000 with the
purchase price evidenced by notes that bear interest at 5.12%. Interest on each
note is due simultaneously with the rent payment of each hotel lease. The
principal amount of each note is due upon the termination of each hotel lease.
See Note 6 for a discussion of the repayment of all but one of the hotel
working notes in 2001. As of December 29, 2000, the outstanding balance of the
working capital notes was $26,011,000.

Debt maturities at December 29, 2000 are as follows (in thousands):

Cash paid for interest expense in 2000 and 1999 totaled $1,351,000 and
$1,463,000, respectively.

Note 4. Management Agreements

All of the Company's hotels are operated by hotel management companies under
long-term hotel management agreements between Host Marriott and hotel
management companies. The existing management agreements were assigned to the
Tenant Subsidiaries upon the execution of the hotel leases for the term of each
corresponding hotel lease. See Note 6 for a discussion of the transfer of all
of the management contracts to Host Marriott in 2001.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were obligated to perform all of the obligations of
Host Marriott under the hotel management agreements including payment of fees
due under the management agreements other than certain

98



CCHP I CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

obligations including payment of property taxes, property casualty insurance
and ground rent, maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital
expenditures for which Host Marriott retained responsibility.

Marriott International manages 30 of the 34 hotels under long-term
management agreements. The remaining four hotels are managed by other hotel
management companies. The management agreements generally provide for payment
of base management fees equal to one to four percent of revenues and incentive
management fees generally equal to 20% to 50% of Operating Profit (as defined
in the management agreements) over a priority return (as defined) to the Tenant
Subsidiaries, with total incentive management fees not to exceed 20% of
cumulative Operating Profit, or 20% of current year Operating Profit.

Note 5. Income Taxes

The Company is included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of
Crestline and its affiliates (the "Group"). Tax expense is allocated to the
Company as a member of the Group based upon the relative contribution to the
Group's consolidated taxable income/loss and changes in temporary differences.
This allocation method results in Federal, state and Canadian tax expense
allocated for the period presented that is substantially equal to the expense
that would have been recognized if the Company had filed separate tax returns.

The provision for income taxes for the fiscal years 2000 and 1999 consists
of the following (in thousands):



2000 1999
------ ------

Current..................................... $3,945 $4,142
Deferred.................................... 344 1,027
------ ------
$4,289 $5,169
====== ======


The significant difference between the Company's effective income tax rate
and the Federal state tax rate is attributable to the state and Canadian tax
rates.

As of December 29, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had no deferred
tax assets. The tax effect of the temporary difference that gives rise to the
Company's deferred tax liability is generally attributable to the hotel working
capital.

Note 6. Subsequent Event

On December 17, 1999, the Work Incentives Improvement Act was passed which
contained certain tax provisions related to REITs commonly known as the REIT
Modernization Act ("RMA"). Under the RMA, beginning on January 1, 2001, REITs
could lease hotels to a "taxable subsidiary" if the hotel is operated and
managed on behalf of such subsidiary by an independent third party. This law
enabled Host Marriott, beginning January 2001, to lease its hotels to a taxable
subsidiary. Under the terms of the Company's full-service hotel leases, Host
Marriott, at its sole discretion, could purchase the full-service hotel leases
for a price equal to the fair market value of the Company's leasehold interest
in the leases based upon an agreed upon formula in the leases.

On November 13, 2000, Crestline, the Company and the Tenant Subsidiaries
entered into an agreement with a subsidiary of Host Marriott for the purchase
and sale of Tenant Subsidiaries' leasehold interests in the full-service
hotels. The purchase and sale transaction would generally transfer ownership of
the Tenant Subsidiaries owned by the Company to a subsidiary of Host Marriott
for a total consideration of $32.6 million in cash. On January 10, 2001, upon
the receipt of all required consents, the purchase and sale transaction was
completed for $28.2 million, which reflects the deferral of the sale of one of
the leases for $4.4 million. The Company

99



CCHP I CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

recognized a pre-tax gain on the transaction of approximately $28 million in
the first quarter of 2001, net of transaction costs. The effective date of the
transaction was January 1, 2001.

In connection with the sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries, the hotel working
capital notes for all but one of the full-service hotels were repaid.
Accordingly, the Company's remaining hotel working capital notes payable to
Host Marriott after the sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries on January 10, 2001
totaled $2,003,000.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To CCHP II Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CCHP II
Corporation and its subsidiaries (a Delaware corporation) as of December 29,
2000 and December 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholder's equity and cash flows for the fiscal years ended
December 29, 2000 and December 31, 1999. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of CCHP II Corporation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CCHP II
Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 29, 2000 and December 31, 1999
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the fiscal years
then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the

CCHP II CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

CCHP II Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of
Delaware on November 23, 1998 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Crestline Capital
Corporation ("Crestline"). On December 29, 1998, Crestline became a publicly
traded company when Host Marriott Corporation ("Host Marriott") completed its
plan of reorganizing its business operations by spinning-off Crestline to the
shareholders of Host Marriott as part of a series of transactions pursuant to
which Host Marriott converted into a real estate investment trust ("REIT").

On December 31, 1998, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the "Tenant
Subsidiaries") entered into lease agreements with Host Marriott to lease 28 of
Host Marriott's full-service hotels with the existing management agreements of
the leased hotels assigned to the Tenant Subsidiaries. As of December 29, 2000,
the Company leased 28 full-service hotels from Host Marriott.

The Company operates as a unit of Crestline, utilizing Crestline's
employees, insurance and administrative services since the Company does not
have any employees. Certain direct expenses are paid by Crestline and charged
directly or allocated to the Company. Certain general and administrative costs
of Crestline are allocated to the Company, using a variety of methods,
principally including Crestline's specific identification of individual costs
and otherwise through allocations based upon estimated levels of effort devoted
by general and administrative departments to the Company or relative measures
of the size of the Company based on revenues. In the opinion of management, the
methods for allocating general and administrative expenses and other direct
costs are reasonable.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances
between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

Fiscal Year

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest December 31.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less at date of purchase as cash equivalents.

Revenues

The Company records the gross property-level revenues generated by the
hotels as revenues.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Hotel Leases

The Tenant Subsidiaries entered into leases with Host Marriott effective
January 1, 1999 for 28 full-service hotels. See Note 6 for a discussion of the
sale of all of the full-service hotel leases in 2001.

Each hotel lease had an initial term of eight years. The Tenant Subsidiaries
were required to pay the greater of (i) a minimum rent specified in each hotel
lease or (ii) a percentage rent based upon a specified percentage of aggregate
revenues from the hotel, including room revenues, food and beverage revenues,
and other income, in excess of specified thresholds. The amount of minimum rent
is increased each year based upon 50% of the increase in CPI during the
previous twelve months. Percentage rent thresholds are increased each year
based on a blend of the increases in CPI and the Employment Cost Index during
the previous twelve months. The hotel leases generally provide for a rent
adjustment in the event of damage, destruction, partial taking or certain
capital expenditures.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were responsible for paying all of the expenses of
operating the hotels, including all personnel costs, utility costs, and general
repair and maintenance of the hotels. In addition, the Tenant Subsidiaries were
responsible for all fees payable to the hotel manager, including base and
incentive management fees, chain services payments and franchise or system
fees. Host Marriott was responsible for real estate and personal property
taxes, property casualty insurance, equipment rent, ground lease rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures.

For those hotels where Marriott International is the manager, it had a
noneconomic membership interest with certain limited voting rights in the
Tenant Subsidiaries.

FF&E Leases

Prior to entering into the hotel leases, if the average tax basis of a
hotel's FF&E and other personal property exceeded 15% of the aggregate average
tax basis of the hotel's real and personal property (the "Excess FF&E"),

108



CCHP II CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

the Tenant Subsidiaries and affiliates of Host Marriott entered into lease
agreements (the "FF&E Leases") for the Excess FF&E. The terms of the FF&E
Leases generally ranged from two to three years and rent under the FF&E Leases
was a fixed amount.

Guaranty and Pooling Agreement

In connection with entering into the hotel leases, the Company, Crestline
and Host Marriott, entered into a pool guarantee and a pooling and security
agreement by which the Company provided a full guarantee and Crestline provided
a limited guarantee of all of the hotel lease obligations.

The cumulative limit of Crestline's guarantee obligation was the greater of
ten percent of the aggregate rent payable for the immediately preceding fiscal
year under all of the Company's hotel leases or ten percent of the aggregate
rent payable under all of the Company's hotel leases for 1999. In the event
that Crestline's obligation under the pooling and guarantee agreement was
reduced to zero, the Company could terminate the agreement and Host Marriott
could terminate the Company's hotel leases without penalty.

All of the Company's leases were cross-defaulted and the Company's
obligations under the guaranty were secured by all the funds received from its
Tenant Subsidiaries.

Note 3. Working Capital Notes

Upon the commencement of the hotel leases, the Company purchased the working
capital of the leased hotels from Host Marriott for $18,090,000 with the
purchase price evidenced by notes that bear interest at 5.12%. Interest on each
note is due simultaneously with the rent payment of each hotel lease. The
principal amount of each note is due upon the termination of each hotel lease.
See Note 6 for a discussion of the repayment of all of the hotel working
capital notes in 2001. As of December 29, 2000, the outstanding balance of the
working capital notes was $18,090,000, which mature in 2006. Cash paid for
interest expense in 2000 and 1999 totaled $926,000 and $856,000, respectively.

Note 4. Management Agreements

All of the Company's hotels are operated by hotel management companies under
long-term hotel management agreements between Host Marriott and hotel
management companies. The existing management agreements were assigned to the
Tenant Subsidiaries upon the execution of the hotel leases for the term of each
corresponding hotel lease. See Note 6 for a discussion of the transfer of all
of the management agreements to Host Marriott in 2001.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were obligated to perform all of the obligations of
Host Marriott under the hotel management agreements including payment of fees
due under the management agreements other than certain obligations including
payment of property taxes, property casualty insurance and ground rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures for
which Host Marriott retained responsibility.

Marriott International manages 23 of the 28 hotels under long-term
management agreements. The Company's remaining five hotels are managed by other
hotel management companies. The management agreements generally provide for
payment of base management fees equal to one to four percent of revenues and
incentive management fees generally equal to 20% to 50% of Operating Profit (as
defined in the management agreements) over a priority return (as defined) to
the Tenant Subsidiaries, with total incentive management fees not to exceed 20%
of cumulative Operating Profit, or 20% of current year Operating Profit.

Note 5. Income Taxes

The Company is included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of
Crestline and its affiliates (the "Group"). Tax expense is allocated to the
Company as a member of the Group based upon the relative contribution to the
Group's consolidated taxable income/loss and changes in temporary differences.
This allocation method results in Federal, state and Canadian tax expense

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

Current..................................... $5,904 $5,835
Deferred.................................... 625 996
------ ------
$6,529 $6,831
====== ======


The significant difference between the Company's effective income tax rate
and the Federal statutory tax rate is attributable to the state and Canadian
tax rates.

As of December 29, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had no deferred
tax assets. The tax effect of the temporary differences that gives rise to the
Company's federal deferred tax liability is generally attributable to the hotel
working capital.

Note 6. Subsequent Event

On December 17, 1999, the Work Incentives Improvement Act was passed which
contained certain tax provisions related to REITs commonly known as the REIT
Modernization Act ("RMA"). Under the RMA, beginning on January 1, 2001, REITs
could lease hotels to a "taxable subsidiary" if the hotel is operated and
managed on behalf of such subsidiary by an independent third party. This law

Marriott, at its sole discretion, could purchase the full-service hotel leases
for a price equal to the fair market value of the Company's leasehold interest
in the leases based upon an agreed upon formula in the leases.

On November 13, 2000, Crestline, the Company and the Tenant Subsidiaries
entered into an agreement with a subsidiary of Host Marriott for the purchase
and sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries' leasehold interests in the full-service
hotels. The purchase and sale transaction would generally transfer ownership of
the Tenant Subsidiaries owned by the Company to a subsidiary of Host Marriott
for a total consideration of $66.8 million in cash. On January 10, 2001, upon
receipt of all required consents, the purchase and sale transaction was
completed for $66.8 million. The Company will recognize a pre-tax gain on the
transaction of approximately $66.6 million in the first quarter of 2001, net of
transaction costs. The effective date of the transaction was January 1, 2001.

In connection with the sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries, all of the hotel
working capital notes were repaid on January 10, 2001.

CCHP III CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

CCHP III Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of
Delaware on November 23, 1998 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Crestline Capital
Corporation ("Crestline"). On December 29, 1998, Crestline became a publicly
traded company when Host Marriott Corporation ("Host Marriott") completed its
plan of reorganizing its business operations by spinning-off Crestline to the
shareholders of Host Marriott as part of a series of transactions pursuant to
which Host Marriott converted into a real estate investment trust ("REIT").

On December 31, 1998, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the "Tenant
Subsidiaries") entered into lease agreements with Host Marriott to lease 31 of
Host Marriott's full-service hotels with the existing management agreements of
the leased hotels assigned to the Tenant Subsidiaries. As of December 29, 2000,
the Company leased 29 full-service hotels from Host Marriott.

The Company operates as a unit of Crestline, utilizing Crestline's
employees, insurance and administrative services since the Company does not
have any employees. Certain direct expenses are paid by Crestline and charged
directly or allocated to the Company. Certain general and administrative costs
of Crestline are allocated to the Company, using a variety of methods,
principally including Crestline's specific identification of individual costs
and otherwise through allocations based upon estimated levels of effort devoted
by general and administrative departments to the Company or relative measures
of the size of the Company based on revenues. In the opinion of management, the
methods for allocating general and administrative expenses and other direct
costs are reasonable.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances
between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

Fiscal Year

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest December 31.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less at date of purchase as cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

In connection with the lender requirements of one of the leased hotels, the
Company is required to maintain a separate account with the lender on behalf of
the Company for the operating profit and incentive management fees of the
hotel. Following an annual audit, amounts will be distributed to the hotel's
manager and to the Company in accordance with the loan agreement.

Revenues

The Company records the gross property-level revenues generated by the
hotels as revenues.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 2. Leases

Future minimum annual rental commitments for all non-cancelable leases as of
December 29, 2000 are as follows (in thousands):

Hotel Leases

The Tenant Subsidiaries entered into leases with Host Marriott effective
January 1, 1999 for 31 full-service hotels. See Note 6 for a discussion of the
sale of all of the full-service hotel leases in 2001.

Each hotel lease had an initial term of nine years. The Tenant Subsidiaries
were required to pay the greater of (i) a minimum rent specified in each hotel
lease or (ii) a percentage rent based upon a specified percentage of aggregate
revenues from the hotel, including room revenues, food and beverage revenues,
and other income, in excess of specified thresholds. The amount of minimum rent
is increased each year based upon 50% of the increase in CPI during the
previous twelve months. Percentage rent thresholds are increased each year
based on a blend of the increases in CPI and the Employment Cost Index during
the previous twelve months. The hotel leases generally provide for a rent
adjustment in the event of damage, destruction, partial taking or certain
capital expenditures.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were responsible for paying all of the expenses of
operating the hotels, including all personnel costs, utility costs, and general
repair and maintenance of the hotels. In addition, the Tenant Subsidiaries were
responsible for all fees payable to the hotel manager, including base and
incentive management fees, chain services payments and franchise or system
fees. Host Marriott was responsible for real estate and personal property
taxes, property casualty insurance, equipment rent, ground lease rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures.

118



CCHP III CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


For those hotels where Marriott International is the manager, it had a
noneconomic membership interest with certain limited voting rights in the
Tenant Subsidiaries.

FF&E Leases

Prior to entering into the hotel leases, if the average tax basis of a
hotel's FF&E and other personal property exceeded 15% of the aggregate average
tax basis of the hotel's real and personal property (the "Excess FF&E"), the
Tenant Subsidiaries and affiliates of Host Marriott entered into lease
agreements (the "FF&E Leases") for the Excess FF&E. The terms of the FF&E
Leases generally ranged from two to three years and rent under the FF&E Leases
was a fixed amount.

Guaranty and Pooling Agreement

In connection with entering into the hotel leases, the Company, Crestline
and Host Marriott, entered into a pool guarantee and a pooling and security
agreement by which the Company provided a full guarantee and Crestline provided
a limited guarantee of all of the hotel lease obligations.

The cumulative limit of Crestline's guarantee obligation was the greater of
ten percent of the aggregate rent payable for the immediately preceding fiscal
year under all of the Company's hotel leases or ten percent of the aggregate
rent payable under all of the Company's hotel leases for 1999. In the event
that Crestline's obligation under the pooling and guarantee agreement was
reduced to zero, the Company could terminate the agreement and Host Marriott
could terminate the Company's hotel leases without penalty.

All of the Company's leases were cross-defaulted and the Company's
obligations under the guaranty were secured by all the funds received from its
Tenant Subsidiaries.

Note 3. Working Capital Notes

Upon the commencement of the hotel leases, the Company purchased the working
capital of the leased hotels from Host Marriott for $22,046,000 with the
purchase price evidenced by notes that bear interest at 5.12%. Interest on each
note is due simultaneously with the rent payment of each hotel lease. The
principal amount of each note is due upon the termination of each hotel lease.
See Note 6 for a discussion of the repayment of all of the hotel working
capital notes in 2001. As of December 29, 2000, the outstanding balance of the
working capital notes was $21,697,000, which mature in 2007. Cash paid for
interest expense in fiscal years 2000 and 1999 totaled $1,112,000 and
$1,042,000, respectively.

Note 4. Management Agreements

All of the Company's hotels are operated by hotel management companies under
long-term hotel management agreements between Host Marriott and hotel
management companies. The existing management agreements were assigned to the
Tenant Subsidiaries upon the execution of the hotel leases for the term of each
corresponding hotel lease. See Note 6 for a discussion of the transfer of all
of the management agreements to Host Marriott in 2001.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were obligated to perform all of the obligations of
Host Marriott under the hotel management agreements including payment of fees
due under the management agreements other than certain obligations including
payment of property taxes, property casualty insurance and ground rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures for
which Host Marriott retained responsibility.

119



CCHP III CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


Marriott International manages 21 of the 29 hotels under long-term
management agreements. The Company's remaining eight hotels are managed by
other hotel management companies. The management agreements generally provide
for payment of base management fees equal to one to four percent of revenues
and incentive management fees generally equal to 20% to 50% of Operating Profit
(as defined in the management agreements) over a priority return (as defined)
to the Tenant Subsidiaries, with total incentive management fees not to exceed
20% of cumulative Operating Profit, or 20% of current year Operating Profit.

Note 5. Income Taxes

The Company is included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of
Crestline and its affiliates (the "Group"). Tax expense is allocated to the
Company as a member of the Group based upon the relative contribution to the
Group's consolidated taxable income/loss and changes in temporary differences.
This allocation method results in Federal and net state tax expense allocated
for the period presented that is substantially equal to the expense that would
have been recognized if the Company had filed separate tax returns.

The provision for income taxes for the fiscal years 2000 and 1999 consists
of the following (in thousands):



2000 1999
------ ------

Current..................................... $5,382 $3,270
Deferred.................................... 90 342
------ ------
$5,472 $3,612
====== ======


As of December 29, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had no deferred
tax assets. The tax effect of the temporary differences that gives rise to the
Company's deferred tax liability is generally attributable to the hotel working
capital.

Note 6. Subsequent Event

On December 17, 1999, the Work Incentives Improvement Act was passed which
contained certain tax provisions related to REITs commonly known as the REIT
Modernization Act ("RMA"). Under the RMA, beginning on January 1, 2001, REITs
could lease hotels to a "taxable subsidiary" if the hotel is operated and
managed on behalf of such subsidiary by an independent third party. This law
enabled Host Marriott, beginning January 2001, to lease its hotels to a taxable
subsidiary. Under the terms of the Company's full-service hotel leases, Host
Marriott, at its sole discretion, could purchase the full-service hotel leases
for a price equal to the fair market value of the Company's leasehold interest
in the leases based upon an agreed upon formula in the leases.

On November 13, 2000, Crestline, the Company and the Tenant Subsidiaries
entered into an agreement with a subsidiary of Host Marriott for the purchase
and sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries' leasehold interests in the full-service
hotels. The purchase and sale transaction would generally transfer ownership of
the Tenant Subsidiaries owned by the Company to a subsidiary of Host Marriott
for a total consideration of $55.1 million in cash. On January 10, 2001, upon
receipt of all required consents, the purchase and sale transaction was
completed for $55.1 million. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the
transaction of approximately $55 million in the first quarter of 2001, net of
transaction costs. The effective date of the transaction was January 1, 2001.

In connection with the sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries, all of the hotel
working capital notes were repaid on January 10, 2001.

financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CCHP IV

Organization

CCHP IV Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of
Delaware on November 23, 1998 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Crestline Capital
Corporation ("Crestline"). On December 29, 1998, Crestline became a publicly

Host Marriott's full-service hotels with the existing management agreements of
the leased hotels assigned to the Tenant Subsidiaries. As of December 29, 2000,
the Company leased 27 full-service hotels from Host Marriott.

The Company operates as a unit of Crestline, utilizing Crestline's

Fiscal Year

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest December 31.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three

Revenues

The Company records the gross property-level revenues generated by the

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Hotel Leases

The Tenant Subsidiaries entered into leases with Host Marriott effective
January 1, 1999 for 27 full-service hotels. See Note 6 for a discussion of the
sale of all of the full-service hotel leases in 2001.

Each hotel lease had an initial term of ten years. The Tenant Subsidiaries
were required to pay the greater of (i) a minimum rent specified in each hotel
lease or (ii) a percentage rent based upon a specified percentage of aggregate
revenues from the hotel, including room revenues, food and beverage revenues,
and other income, in excess of specified thresholds. The amount of minimum rent
is increased each year based upon 50% of the increase in CPI during the
previous twelve months. Percentage rent thresholds are increased each year
based on a blend of the increases in CPI and the Employment Cost Index during
the previous twelve months. The hotel leases generally provide for a rent
adjustment in the event of damage, destruction, partial taking or certain
capital expenditures.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were responsible for paying all of the expenses of
operating the hotels, including all personnel costs, utility costs, and general
repair and maintenance of the hotels. In addition, the Tenant Subsidiaries were
responsible for all fees payable to the hotel manager, including base and
incentive management fees, chain services payments and franchise or system
fees. Host Marriott was responsible for real estate and personal property
taxes, property casualty insurance, equipment rent, ground lease rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures.

For those hotels where Marriott International is the manager, it had a
noneconomic membership interest with certain limited voting rights in the
Tenant Subsidiaries.

FF&E Leases

Prior to entering into the hotel leases, if the average tax basis of a
hotel's FF&E and other personal property exceeded 15% of the aggregate average
tax basis of the hotel's real and personal property (the "Excess FF&E"),

128



CCHP IV CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

the Tenant Subsidiaries and affiliates of Host Marriott entered into lease
agreements (the "FF&E Leases") for the Excess FF&E. The terms of the FF&E
Leases generally ranged from two to three years and rent under the FF&E Leases
was a fixed amount.

Guaranty and Pooling Agreement

In connection with entering into the hotel leases, the Company, Crestline
and Host Marriott, entered into a pool guarantee and a pooling and security
agreement by which the Company provided a full guarantee and Crestline provided
a limited guarantee of all of the hotel lease obligations.

The cumulative limit of Crestline's guarantee obligation was the greater of
ten percent of the aggregate rent payable for the immediately preceding fiscal
year under all of the Company's hotel leases or ten percent of the aggregate
rent payable under all of the Company's hotel leases for 1999. In the event
that Crestline's obligation under the pooling and guarantee agreement was
reduced to zero, the Company could terminate the agreement and Host Marriott
could terminate the Company's hotel leases without penalty.

All of the Company's leases were cross-defaulted and the Company's
obligations under the guaranty were secured by all the funds received from its
Tenant Subsidiaries.

Note 3. Working Capital Notes

Upon the commencement of the hotel leases, the Company purchased the working
capital of the leased hotels from Host Marriott for $16,522,000 with the
purchase price evidenced by notes that bear interest at 5.12%. Interest on each
note is due simultaneously with the rent payment of each hotel lease. The
principal amount of each note is due upon the termination of each hotel lease.
See Note 6 for a discussion of the repayment of all of the hotel working
capital notes in 2001. As of December 29, 2000, the outstanding balance of the
working capital notes was $16,522,000, which mature in 2008. Cash paid for
interest expense in 2000 and 1999 totaled $846,000 and $781,000, respectively.

Note 4. Management Agreements

All of the Company's hotels are operated by hotel management companies under
long-term hotel management agreements between Host Marriott and hotel
management companies. The existing management agreements were assigned to the
Tenant Subsidiaries upon the execution of the hotel leases for the term of each
corresponding hotel lease. See Note 6 for a discussion of the transfer of all
of the management agreements to Host Marriott in 2001.

The Tenant Subsidiaries were obligated to perform all of the obligations of
Host Marriott under the hotel management agreements including payment of fees
due under the management agreements other than certain obligations including
payment of property taxes, property casualty insurance and ground rent,
maintaining a reserve fund for FF&E replacements and capital expenditures for
which Host Marriott retained responsibility.

Marriott International manages 23 of the 27 hotels under long-term
management agreements. The Company's remaining four hotels are managed by other
hotel management companies. The management agreements generally provide for
payment of base management fees equal to one to four percent of revenues and
incentive management fees generally equal to 20% to 50% of Operating Profit (as
defined in the management agreements) over a priority return (as defined) to
the Tenant Subsidiaries, with total incentive management fees not to exceed 20%
of cumulative Operating Profit, or 20% of current year Operating Profit.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


Note 5. Income Taxes

The Company is included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of
Crestline and its affiliates (the "Group"). Tax expense is allocated to the
Company as a member of the Group based upon the relative contribution to the
Group's consolidated taxable income/loss and changes in temporary differences.
This allocation method results in Federal and net state tax expense allocated
for the period presented that is substantially equal to the expense that would
have been recognized if the Company had filed separate tax returns.

The provision for income taxes for fiscal years 2000 and 1999 consists of
the following (in thousands):



2000 1999
------ ------

Current..................................... $2,452 $2,725
Deferred.................................... 299 741
------ ------
$2,751 $3,466
====== ======


As of December 29, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had no deferred
tax assets. The tax effect of the temporary differences that gives rise to the
Company's deferred tax liability is generally attributable to the hotel working
capital.

Note 6. Subsequent Event

On December 17, 1999, the Work Incentives Improvement Act was passed which
contained certain tax provisions related to REITs commonly known as the REIT
Modernization Act ("RMA"). Under the RMA, beginning on January 1, 2001, REITs
could lease hotels to a "taxable subsidiary" if the hotel is operated and
managed on behalf of such subsidiary by an independent third party. This law
enabled Host Marriott, beginning January 2001, to lease its hotels to a taxable
subsidiary. Under the terms of the Company's full-service hotel leases, Host
Marriott, at its sole discretion, could purchase the full-service hotel leases
for a price equal to the fair market value of the Company's leasehold interest
in the leases based upon an agreed upon formula in the leases.

On November 13, 2000, Crestline, the Company and the Tenant Subsidiaries
entered into an agreement with a subsidiary of Host Marriott for the purchase
and sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries' leasehold interests in the full-service
hotels. The purchase and sale transaction would generally transfer ownership of
the Lessee Entities owned by the Company to a subsidiary of Host Marriott for a
total consideration of $46.1 million in cash. On January 10, 2001, upon receipt
of all required consents, the purchase and sale transaction was completed for
$46.1 million. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the transaction of
approximately $46 million in the first quarter of 2001, net of the transaction
costs. The effective date of the transaction was January 1, 2001.

In connection with the sale of the Tenant Subsidiaries, all of the hotel
working capital notes were repaid on January 10, 2001.
