Item 3.01. Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard.
On April 4, 2013, Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (Company) received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) notifying the Company that the Company did not provide timely notice to the NYSE of the record date for the Company’s upcoming 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders at least ten days prior to the record date for the meeting as required by NYSE rules.
The Company notes that this isolated incident occurred due to administrative error and the Company believes it has been and is in compliance with all other NYSE rules applicable to it. The Company gave notice of the record date of the annual meeting to Broadridge more than fifty days before the record date and accordingly notice was communicated to investors and the trading markets by Broadridge more than ten days before the record date. The Company confirms that the record date for its 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 14, 2013 continues to be March 15, 2013.
