     The Company's Board has two standing committees:  Audit and Compensation.

     The members of the Audit Committee are Doctor R. Crants, Edouard de Royere
and Daniel J. Altobello, who serves as Chair.  The Audit Committee meets at
least two times a year with the Company's independent auditors, management
representatives and internal auditors.  The Audit Committee recommends to the
Company's Board the appointment of independent auditors, approves the scope of
audits and other services to be performed by the independent and internal
auditors, and reviews the results of internal and external audits, the
accounting principles applied in financial reporting and the adequacy of
financial and operational controls.  The independent auditors and internal
auditors have unrestricted access to the Audit Committee and vice versa.

     The members of the Compensation Committee are Bernard Carton, William J.
Shaw and Doctor R. Crants, who serves as Chair.  The functions of this Committee
include determining the compensation of senior officers and certain other
employees, administering employee compensation and benefit plans and reviewing
the operations and policies of such plans.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")
requires the Company's executive officers and directors, and persons who own
more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities
("Reporting Persons"), to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in
beneficial ownership of the Company's equity securities with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the New York Stock Exchange.  Specific due dates
for these reports have been established, and the Company is required to report
in this report any failure by such persons to file such reports on a timely
basis during 1997.  During 1997, the Reporting Persons of Old Marriott were in
compliance with these requirements, with the exception of one transaction not
timely reported by Robert T. Pras and one transaction not timely reported by
Edwin D. Fuller.

     The following tables on Executive Compensation (Table I - Summary

Marriott Common Stock as a result of the Spinoff. All awards were made under the
Marriott International, Inc. 1993 Comprehensive Stock Incentive Plan or the
Marriott International, Inc. 1996 Comprehensive Stock Incentive Plan (the "Old
Marriott Plans"). In connection with the Spinoff, the awards under the Old
Marriott Plans were canceled and substitute awards were granted under the
Marriott International, Inc. 1998 Comprehensive Stock and Cash Incentive Plan
(the "New Marriott Plan"). The substitute awards preserved (but did not increase
or decrease) the economic value of the awards under the Old Marriott Plans.

1998, immediately following the Transactions, the persons listed below no longer
hold executive officer positions with the Company, but have assumed positions
with New Marriott.  Although not an employee of the Company, William J. Shaw has
been elected Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

(1)  Fiscal year 1996 base salary earnings were for 53 weeks, all other fiscal
     year base salary earnings were for 52 weeks.

(2)  Salary amounts include base salary earned and paid in cash during the
     fiscal year and the amount of base salary deferred at the election of the
     executive officer under the Old Marriott Employees' Profit Sharing,
     Retirement and Savings Plan and Trust (the "Profit Sharing Plan") and
     Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Plan").

(3)  All awards of restricted stock noted in the above table for 1995, 1996 and
     1997 were originally made under the Old Marriott Plans for 1995, 1996 and
     1997 performance.  Restricted stock awards granted by Old Marriott are
     subject to general restrictions, such as continued employment and non-
     competition, and in some cases, additional performance restrictions such as
     attainment of financial objectives.  Holders of restricted stock receive
     dividend payments and exercise voting rights with respect to such shares.
     Awards of deferred bonus stock were generally derived by dividing 20
     percent of each individual's annual cash bonus award by the average of the
     high and low trading prices for a share of Old Marriott Common Stock on the
     last trading day for the fiscal year.  No voting rights or dividends are
     attributed to award shares until such awards are distributed.  The
     individual executive may elect to denominate the awards as current or
     deferred.  A current award is distributed in 10 annual installments
     commencing one year after the award is granted.  A deferred award is
     distributed in a lump sum or in up to 10 installments following termination
     of employment.  Deferred bonus stock contingently vests pro-rata in ten
     annual installments commencing one year after the award is granted to the
     employee.  Awards are not subject to forfeiture once the employee reaches
     age 55 with 10 years of service with Old Marriott, or has 20 years of
     service with Old Marriott with Board approval.

(4)  Total awards for each executive including awards reflected in the
     restricted stock column in the above table include the following for the
     named individual:  (i) for Mr. Marriott 5,833 shares deferred bonus stock
     with a value of $399,910; (ii) for Mr. Shaw 15,651 shares deferred bonus
     stock, 27,000 shares restricted stock and 25,000 shares deferred contract
     stock with an aggregate value of $4,638,153; (iii) for Mr. Tiefel 66,569
     shares deferred bonus stock, 2,000 shares restricted stock and 49,847
     shares deferred contract stock with an aggregate value of $8,118,601; (iv)
     for Mr. Ryan 3,098 shares deferred bonus stock, 28,000 shares restricted
     stock and 10,000 shares deferred contract stock with an aggregate value of
     $2,817,679; (v) for Mr. Stein 5,977 shares deferred bonus stock, 15,000
     shares restricted stock and 10,000 shares deferred contract stock with an
     aggregate value of $2,123,783; and (vi) for Mr. Sullivan 9,308 shares
     deferred bonus stock, 12,000 shares restricted stock, 10,000 shares
     deferred contract stock with an aggregate value of $2,146,476.

(5)  Amounts included in "All Other Compensation" represent Company matching
     contributions made under one or both of the Profit Sharing Plan and the
     Deferred Plan.  In 1997, for Mr. Marriott, $3,711 was attributable to the
     Profit Sharing Plan and $75,879 was attributable to the Deferred Plan; for
     Mr. Shaw, $2,082 was attributable to the Profit Sharing Plan and $21,926
     was attributable to the Deferred Plan; for Mr. Tiefel, $3,711 was
     attributable to the Profit Sharing Plan and $41,003 was attributable to the
     Deferred Plan; for Mr. Ryan, $1,531 was attributable to the Profit Sharing
     Plan and $10,962 was attributable to the Deferred Plan; for Mr. Stein,
     $3,711 was attributable to the Profit Sharing Plan and $26,050 was
     attributable to the Deferred Plan; for Mr. Sullivan, $3,711 was
     attributable to the Profit Sharing Plan and $25,972 was attributable to the
     Deferred Plan.

(6)  In 1996, Mr. J.W. Marriott, Jr. waived his vested right to receive post-
     retirement distributions of cash under the Deferred Plan and Old Marriott
     Common Stock under the Old Marriott 1993 Comprehensive Stock Incentive Plan
     (the "1993 Plan").  The payments and stock distributions waived were
     awarded to Mr. Marriott in 1995 and prior years and were 

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
     disclosed as required in earlier proxy statements of Old Marriott or of
     Marriott Corporation. In connection with this waiver, Old Marriott entered
     into an arrangement to purchase life insurance policies for the benefit of
     a trust established by Mr. Marriott, which arrangement has been assigned to
     Old Marriott. The cost of the life insurance policies to Old Marriott will
     not exceed the projected after-tax cost Old Marriott expected to incur in
     connection with the payments under the Deferred Plan and the stock
     distributions under the 1993 Plan that were waived by Mr. Marriott.

(1)  Under the Old Marriott Plans, Old Marriott was entitled to grant to
     eligible employees stock options either on a non-qualified tax basis or as
     "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal
     Revenue Code.  All options granted to Old Marriott employees in 1997 were
     non-qualified options and totaled 3,449,975 shares.

(2)  All options granted except for the supplemental options granted on February
     6, 1997, vest over four years on the anniversary date of the grant at a
     rate of 25% per year and have a 15-year term.  Except as set forth in the
     succeeding sentence, if an optionee ceases to be an employee, other than by
     reason of death, while holding an exercisable option, the option will
     generally terminate if not exercised within three months of termination of
     employment.  Options held by optionees who retire and meet certain
     retirement provisions of the Old Marriott Plan (retirement approved by the
     Compensation Policy Committee of the Board of 

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
         Directors and either age 55 with 10 years of service, or 20 years of
         service) will not expire until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the
         option in accordance with its original term or (ii) one year from the
         date on which the option granted latest in time to the optionee has
         fully vested. Options are not transferable except that if an optionee
         dies while an employee of Old Marriott more than one year from the date
         the option was granted, a legatee may exercise the remaining options at
         any time up to one year after the date of death of the employee.

(3)      The options granted on February 6, 1997 will vest in full at the end of
         eight years on the anniversary date of the grant and may vest earlier
         at the end of three, four or five years if certain stock price
         appreciation goals are achieved.

(4)      The Black-Scholes option pricing model was used to estimate the present
         value of the options at the date of the grant. The material assumptions
         and adjustments used in estimating the value of the options include: a
         10-year option term for the February grant and a 15-year option term
         for the November grant, an exercise price of $54.188 for the options
         issued in February and $67.7813 for the options issued in November,
         expected volatility of 23.97%, an annual dividend of $0.35, a risk free
         interest rate of 6.15%, an expected life of 7.15 years and a 13.3%
         reduction to reflect the probability of forfeiture due to termination
         prior to vesting. These inputs resulted in an $18.47 per share option
         value for the February grant and a $23.52 per share option value for
         the November grant.

     Corporation) ("Host Marriott") in October 1993 (the "October 1993
     Distribution") and pursuant to the Marriott Corporation Employee Stock
     Option Plan, all Marriott Corporation options were adjusted to reflect the
     October 1993 Distribution. Each nonqualified Marriott Corporation option
     was "split" by (i) adjusting the price at which the Marriott Corporation
     option (as adjusted, a "Host Marriott Corporation Option") was exercisable
     for common stock of Host Marriott Corporation and (ii) providing the holder
     thereof with an option to purchase an identical number of shares of Old
     Marriott Common Stock (each, an "Old Marriott Option"). The exercise price
     of the Old Marriott Option was set, and the exercise price of the
     corresponding Host Marriott Corporation Option was adjusted, so as to
     equal, in the aggregate, the exercise price of the Marriott Corporation
     option prior to the October 1993 Distribution. Accordingly, these
     adjustments merely preserved, and did not increase or decrease, the
     economic value of the outstanding Marriott Corporation option prior to the
     October 1993 Distribution. In December of 1995, in connection with the
     distribution of all of Host Marriott Services Corporation's outstanding
     common stock on a share-for-share basis to shareholders of Host Marriott
     Corporation (the "Host Marriott Services Distribution") and pursuant to the
     Host Marriott Corporation 1993 Comprehensive Stock Incentive Plan, all Host
     Marriott Corporation Options were adjusted to reflect the Host Marriott
     Services Distribution. The Host Marriott Services Distribution resulted in
     a lower option price and greater number of options in Host Marriott
     Corporation for all Old Marriott employees with outstanding options in Host
     Marriott Corporation. The exercise price was set, and the price of the Host
     Marriott Corporation Options were adjusted, so as to preserve (but not
     increase or decrease) the economic value of each Host Marriott Corporation
     Option immediately prior to the Host Marriott Services Distribution.

(3)  Based on a per share price for Old Marriott Common Stock of $68.56 and a
     per share price for Host Marriott Corporation Common Stock of $19.21.
     These prices reflect the average of the high and low trading prices on the
     New York Stock Exchange on January 2, 1998.

Compensation of Directors

     Directors who are also employees of the Company receive no additional
compensation for service as directors.  The Chairman of the Board, who is not an
employee of the Company, receives an annual retainer fee of $50,000.  Other

$25,000.  Non-employee directors also receive a fee of $1,250 for attendance at
Board, Committee or Stockholder meetings.  The Chair of each Committee of the

ITEM 13 -- CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

General

     In general, see "THE TRANSACTIONS--Arrangements Between SMS and New
Marriott" and "Arrangements Between SMS and Sodexho" on pages 43 through 50 of
the Proxy Statement, for a discussion of certain arrangements with New Marriott
and Sodexho, respectively, that were entered into upon consummation of the
Transactions. Such sections of the Proxy Statement are incorporated by reference
into this report.

     Pierre Bellon, who is a Director of the Company, is the Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of Sodexho.  Bellon S.A., a privately held corporation,
beneficially owns approximately 42 percent of Sodexho.  Mr. Bellon and members
of his family beneficially own approximately 68 percent of Bellon S.A., and
subsidiaries of Sodexho beneficially own approximately 19 percent of Bellon S.A.
Bernard Carton, who is a Director of the Company, is the Vice President, Finance
of Sodexho.  Edouard de Royere, who is a director of the Company, is a director
of Sodexho.

Certain Transactions

     JWM Family Enterprises, L.P. ("Family Enterprises"), a Delaware limited
partnership owned by J.W. Marriott, Jr., the former Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Old Marriott and now Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of New
Marriott, and members of his immediate family, owns a 216-room Courtyard Hotel
in Long Beach, California, a 120-room Residence Inn in San Antonio, Texas and a
468-room Fairfield Inn in Anaheim, California. Subsidiaries of Old Marriott
operate the three properties pursuant to management agreements with Family
Enterprises. For 1997, Old Marriott received management fees totaling $878,183
for these properties, plus reimbursement of certain expenses. Old Marriott also
received payments in 1997 of $54,647 from Family Enterprises related to
furnishings and supplies for the Anaheim and Long Beach Hotels.

     McIntosh Mill Ltd.  ("McIntosh Mill"), a Utah limited partnership in
which Richard E. Marriott, a former director of Old Marriott and a current
director of New Marriott, has a 40 percent limited partnership interest, is
party to an agreement with Marriott Ownership Resort, Inc. ("MORI"), a
subsidiary of Old Marriott, under which MORI purchased land in Park City, Utah
from McIntosh Mill on which MORI is constructing a mixed-use, multi-phase
development.  The terms of the Agreement call for McIntosh Mill to purchase from
MORI the commercial condominium units for a cash purchase price calculated as
the pro rata share of the development and construction costs of the project
allocable to the commercial units less (i) the value of the land allocated to
the residential condominium units retained by MORI for its time share resort,
and (ii) an agreed upon development fee earned by McIntosh Mill.  Construction
of all phases was completed in 1997 and the cash portion of the purchase price
for the commercial space payable to MORI is approximately $3.95 million.  MORI
has secured payment of these amounts by purchase money mortgages on the
commercial condominium units until McIntosh Mill obtains long term mortgage
financing which is expected to be arranged in 1998.

     On March 29, 1997, Old Marriott acquired substantially all of the
outstanding common stock of Renaissance Hotel Group N.V. ("RHG"), an operator
and franchisor of 150 hotels in 38 countries, for approximately $1 billion.  Dr.
Henry Cheng Kar-Shun, a former director of Old Marriott and now a director of
New Marriott, together with members of the Cheng family, beneficially owned
approximately 60 percent of the RHG shares acquired by Old Marriott, and Dr.
Cheng became a director of Old Marriott in connection with the RHG acquisition.
RHG operates 87 hotels in which affiliates of Dr. Cheng and members of the Cheng
family have a direct or indirect ownership or leasehold interest.  New World
Development, for which Dr. Cheng serves as Managing Director and which is 35.3
percent owned by Dr. Cheng and members of the Cheng family, its affiliates or


                                     -14-
<PAGE>
 
affiliates of Dr. Cheng have indemnified RHG, its subsidiaries and Old Marriott
for certain lease, debt, guarantee and other obligations in connection with the
formation of RHG as a hotel management company in 1995.

Relationship Between Old Marriott and Host Marriott

     J.W. Marriott, Jr. and Richard E. Marriott and their respective immediate
family members beneficially own approximately 6.5 percent and 6.5 percent,
respectively, of the common stock of Host Marriott Corporation ("Host
Marriott"). Richard E. Marriott is the Chairman of the Board of Host Marriott,
and J.W. Marriott, Jr. is a director of Host Marriott.

     Old Marriott and Host Marriott are or have been party to agreements
which provide, among other things, for Old Marriott to (i) manage lodging
properties owned or leased by Host Marriott (the "Host Marriott Lodging
Management Agreements"), (ii) manage senior living communities owned by Host
Marriott (the "Host Marriott Senior Living Management Agreements"), (iii)
advance up to $225 million to Host Marriott under a line of credit (the "Host
Marriott Credit Agreement"), (iv) guarantee Host Marriott's performance in
connection with certain loans or other obligations (the "Old Marriott
Guarantees") and (v) provide Host Marriott with various administrative and
consulting services and a sublease of office space at the Marriott headquarters
building (the "Services Agreements").  Old Marriott had the right to purchase up
to 20 percent of the voting stock of Host Marriott if certain events involving a
change of control of Host Marriott occur.  These agreements were assigned from
Old Marriott to New Marriott upon completion of the Spinoff.

     The Host Marriott Lodging Management Agreements provide for Old Marriott to
manage Marriott hotels, Courtyard hotels and Residence Inns owned or leased by
Host Marriott. Each Host Marriott Lodging Management Agreement, when entered
into, reflects market terms and conditions and is substantially similar to the
terms of management agreements with third-party owners regarding lodging
facilities of a similar type. Old Marriott recognized sales of $2,302 million
and operating profit (before corporate expenses and interest) of $140 million
during 1997, from the lodging properties owned or leased by Host Marriott.
Additionally, Host Marriott is a general partner in several unconsolidated
partnerships that own lodging properties operated by Old Marriott under long-
term agreements. Old Marriott recognized sales of $1,513 million and operating
profit (before corporate expenses and interest) of $122 million in 1997, from
the lodging properties owned by these unconsolidated partnerships. Old Marriott
also leases land to certain of these partnerships and recognized land rent
income of $23 million in 1997.

     In June 1997, Old Marriott sold to Host Marriott all of the issued and
outstanding stock of Forum Group, Inc. which owns or leases 29 senior living
communities, for aggregate consideration of approximately $550 million,
comprised of cash, notes from Host Marriott, Old Marriott's share of outstanding
debt of Forum Group, and approximately $87 million to be received as expansions
as certain communities are completed.  Marriott Senior Living Services, Inc., a
subsidiary of Old Marriott, manages these communities under the Host Marriott
Senior Living Management Agreements.  Each Host Marriott Senior Living
Management Agreement reflects market terms and conditions and is substantially
similar to the terms of management agreements with third-party owners regarding
senior living facilities of a similar type.  Old Marriott recognized sales of
$126 million and operating profit (before corporate expenses and interest) of $1
million under these agreements during 1997.

     On June 19, 1997, the $225 million secured credit facility under the
Host Marriott Credit Agreement was terminated by mutual consent.  Under the Host
Marriott Credit Agreement, interest on outstanding balances up to $112.5 million
accrued at LIBOR plus 3 percent; interest on outstanding balances from $112.5
million to $225 million accrued at LIBOR plus 4 percent.  Old Marriott has
provided, and New Marriott may in the future provide, financing to Host Marriott
for a portion of the cost of acquiring properties to be operated or franchised
by New Marriott, including 


                                     -15-
<PAGE>
 
notes received as partial consideration for Host Marriott's purchase of Forum
Group, Inc. The outstanding principal amount of these loans was $135 million at
January 2, 1998, and Old Marriott recognized $9 million in 1997 in interest and
fee income under these credit agreements with Host Marriott.

     Under the Old Marriott Guarantees, Old Marriott has guaranteed Host
Marriott's performance to lenders and other third parties.  These guarantees
were limited to $107 million at January 2, 1998.  No payments have been made by
Old Marriott pursuant to these guarantees.

     Old Marriott also provides certain administrative services to Host
Marriott (including the services provided to Host Marriott Services prior to the
Host Marriott Services Distribution) for which Old Marriott was paid
approximately $17 million in 1997, including reimbursements, pursuant to the
Services Agreements.

     In December 1997, Host Marriott completed its acquisition of the
Leisure Park at Lakewood, New Jersey senior living community, purchasing all but
one percent of Old Marriott's 50 percent interest for approximately $8.65
million in cash and notes.  In 1997, Old Marriott's subsidiary that manages this
facility received management fees of $919,665 from the partnership.

Relationship Between Old Marriott and Host Marriott Services

     Until December 29, 1995, Host Marriott Services Corporation ("Host
Marriott Services") was a wholly owned subsidiary of Host Marriott.  On that
date, Host Marriott separated the Host Marriott Services businesses from its
other businesses through the "Host Marriott Services Distribution" to holders of
outstanding shares of Host Marriott common stock of one share of Host Marriott
Services common stock for each five shares of Host Marriott common stock.  Upon
the consummation of the Host Marriott Services Distribution, Host Marriott
Services became a separate, publicly held company.

     J.W. Marriott, Jr. and Richard E. Marriott and their respective immediate
family members beneficially own approximately 6.9 percent and 6.8 percent,
respectively, of the common stock of Host Marriott Services. William J. Shaw,
former President and Chief Operating Officer and a director of Old Marriott and
now the President and Chief Operating Officer and a director of New Marriott and
a Director of the Company, is the Chairman of the Board of Host Marriott
Services, and J.W. Marriott, Jr. and Richard E. Marriott are directors of Host
Marriott Services.

     In connection with the Host Marriott Services Distribution, Old
Marriott and Host Marriott Services entered into service agreements that are
similar to the Service Agreements, and in some cases Host Marriott has assigned
to Host Marriott Services, and Host Marriott Services has assumed, the
applicable Services Agreements.  Old Marriott received payments aggregating
approximately $10 million in 1997, including reimbursements, pursuant to these
agreements.  In addition, Old Marriott provides and distributes food and
supplies to Host Marriott Services, for which Old Marriott charged approximately
$80 million in 1997.

     In connection with the Transactions, the obligations of Old Marriott
to Host Marriott Services under various service agreements were assigned to New
Marriott, and the Company and New Marriott entered into restated Noncompetition
Agreements with Host Marriott Services that superceded the previous
Noncompetition Agreement between Old Marriott and Host Marriott Services.
