HOUSEHOLDING
The SEC allows us to deliver a single proxy statement and annual report to an address shared by two or more of
our stockholders. This delivery method, referred to as “householding,” can result in significant cost savings for us.
In order to take advantage of this opportunity, the Company and banks and brokerage firms that hold your Shares
have delivered only one proxy statement and annual report to multiple stockholders who share an address unless one
or more of the stockholders has provided contrary instructions. The Company will deliver promptly, upon written or
oral request, a separate copy of the proxy statement and annual report to a stockholder at a shared address to which a
single copy of the documents was delivered. A stockholder who wishes to receive a separate copy of the proxy
statement and annual report, now or in the future, may obtain one, without charge, by addressing a request to
Investor Relations, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., 1111 Westchester Avenue, White Plains, NY
10604 or by calling (914) 640-8100. You may also obtain a copy of the proxy statement and annual report from the
investor relations page on the Company’s website (www.starwoodhotels.com/corporate/investor_relations.html).
Stockholders of record sharing an address who are receiving multiple copies of proxy materials and annual reports
and wish to receive a single copy of such materials in the future should submit their request by contacting us in the
same manner. If you are the beneficial owner, but not the record holder, of the Shares and wish to receive only one
copy of the proxy statement and annual report in the future, you will need to contact your broker, bank or other
nominee to request that only a single copy of each document be mailed to all stockholders at the shared address in
the future.
