Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 14, 2015, Host Hotels & Resorts Inc. (the “company” or “Host”), the general partner of Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P., announced a leadership restructuring in its investment team. In connection with the restructuring, Struan Robertson will no longer serve as Chief Investment Officer, effective April 15, 2015. Mr. Robertson, who has acted as Chief Investment Officer since January 2013 will remain with the company until May 1, 2015 reporting to the company’s Chief Executive Officer, W. Edward Walter. Contingent upon the execution of a release with a one-year non-competition agreement with the company, Mr. Robertson will be entitled to benefits under Host’s Severance Plan for Executives for a termination without cause or a voluntary departure for good reason. On his departure date, Mr. Robertson will receive (i) a severance amount in cash of $1,089,150, which equals one times Mr. Robertson’s current annual base salary and one times the average cash incentive bonus that was paid to him over the prior two years; and (ii) continued coverage for group medical, vision and dental benefits, for which the company shall pay the premium costs, for 18 months or until re-employment, whichever period is shorter. In addition, under the restricted stock agreement and stock option agreement between Mr. Robertson and the company, Mr. Robertson will vest in (i) 58,432 shares of common stock, which represents shares that would vest at the “target” level of performance in 2015 (50% of his 2015 award) and (ii) 28,902 options, which are all options granted for 2015. Mr. Robertson will also receive distributions under Host’s Executive Deferred Compensation Plan in accordance with the terms of that plan and the value of any accrued vacation pay.
