STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR NEXT ANNUAL MEETING
If you want to make a proposal for consideration at next year’s Annual Meeting and have it included in the
Company’s proxy materials, the Company must receive your proposal by November 13, 2010, and the proposal
must comply with the rules of the SEC.
If you want to make a proposal or nominate a Director for consideration at next year’s Annual Meeting without
having the proposal included in the Company’s proxy materials, you must comply with the then current advance
notice provisions and other requirements set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, including that the Company must
receive your proposal on or after February 2, 2011 and on or prior to February 27, 2011, with certain exceptions if
the date of next year’s Annual Meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from the
anniversary date of the 2010 Annual Meeting.
If the Company does not receive your proposal or nomination by the appropriate deadline and in accordance
with the terms of the Company’s Bylaws, then it may not be brought before the 2011 Annual Meeting.
The fact that the Company may not insist upon compliance with these requirements should not be construed as
a waiver by the Company of its right to do so at any time in the future.
You should address your proposals or nominations to the Corporate Secretary, Starwood Hotels & Resorts
Worldwide, Inc., 1111 Westchester Avenue, White Plains, New York 10604.
By Order of the Board of Directors
STARWOOD HOTELS & RESORTS
WORLDWIDE, INC.
