On June 28, 2012, Marriott Vacations Worldwide Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) completed a securitization involving the transfer of a pool of approximately $250 million in vacation ownership notes receivable (the “Loans”) to Marriott Vacation Club Owner Trust 2012-1 (the “2012-1 Trust”). Simultaneous with the securitization of the Loans to the 2012-1 Trust, investors purchased approximately $238 million in Timeshare Loan Backed Notes (the “Notes”) from the 2012-1 Trust in a private placement. Two classes of Notes were issued by the 2012-1 Trust: approximately $210 million of Class A Notes and approximately $28 million of Class B Notes. The Class A Notes have an interest rate of 2.51% and the Class B Notes have an interest rate of 3.50%, for an overall weighted average interest rate of 2.625%.

As consideration for the securitization of the Loans, the Company received initial gross cash proceeds (before transaction expenses and required reserves) of approximately $238 million, and a subordinated residual interest in the 2012-1 Trust, through which it expects to realize the remaining value of the Loans over time. Of this amount, approximately $101 million was used to repay amounts previously drawn under the Company’s $300 million warehouse credit facility, and the remainder will be used for general corporate purposes. Under current accounting rules, the securitization is accounted for as a secured borrowing and therefore, the Company will not recognize a gain or loss in the third quarter of 2012 as a result of this transaction.

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. A copy of the Company’s June 28, 2012 press release announcing the issuance of the Notes is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
