PROMISSORY NOTE

$XXX,000.00 April   , 2012

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Circle Entertainment Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Payor”), hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the order of XXXXX, (the “Payee”), in lawful money of
the United States of America in immediately available funds, the principal sum of XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Dollars ($XXXXXX), together with interest thereon, compounded annually, from the date hereof
through maturity at the rate of 6.00% per annum (calculated on the actual number of days elapsed
and an assumed year of 360 days) (the “Stated Rate”). This principal amount, together with
interest accrued thereon at the Stated Rate commencing on the date hereof, shall be due and payable
in full upon demand.

This Promissory Note (“Note”) evidences Payee’s loan to Payor in the principal amount
of this Note.

Payor shall use the principal amount of this Note for working capital requirements. So long
as any amounts under this Note remain unpaid, Payor shall not incur any indebtedness for borrowed
money without the prior written consent of Payee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned). For the avoidance of doubt and ambiguity, the foregoing restriction on the
incurrence of indebtedness for borrowed money shall not apply to indebtedness incurred by Payor in
the ordinary course of business for goods and services from trade creditors.

The principal and accrued interest balance of this Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at
any time without a premium or penalty of any kind.

If any Acceleration Event (as defined below) shall occur for any reason then and in any such
event, in addition to all rights and remedies of the Payee under this Note, applicable law or
otherwise, all such rights and remedies being cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable
alternatively, successively and concurrently, the Payee may, at its option, declare due any or all
of the Payor’s obligations, liabilities and indebtedness owing to the Payee under this Note
whereupon the then unpaid balance hereof shall immediately be due and payable, together with all
expenses of collection hereof, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and legal expenses
(for this purpose, the Payor shall pay all trial and appellate attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses,
paid or incurred by the Payee in connection with collection of this Note). If the foregoing unpaid
balances, expenses and collection costs are not paid upon demand upon the occurrence of an
Acceleration Event (collectively, the “Unpaid Amounts”), such Unpaid Amounts shall bear
interest until paid in full at the Stated Rate plus 5.00% per annum or the maximum interest rate
then permitted under applicable law (whichever is less) (the “Default Rate”). From and
after maturity of this Note, the Unpaid Amounts shall bear interest until paid in full at the
Default Rate. For purposes hereof, “Acceleration Event” means the first to occur of the following:
(i) if any principal or accrued interest or other amount owing under this Note is not paid when due
and such default continues unremedied for fifteen (15) days after written notice provided by Payee
to Payor, (ii) Payor having made an assignment for the benefit of creditors, filed a petition in
bankruptcy, applied to or petitioned any tribunal for the appointment of a custodian, receiver,
intervener or trustee for Payor, or commenced any proceeding for any arrangement or readjustment of
its debts, (iii) any such petition or application having been filed or proceeding having commenced
against Payor and Payor not having interposed a defense thereto within the time permitted under
applicable law, (iv) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of Payor’s assets,
(v) the dissolution of Payor or (vi) the failure by Payor to perform any other covenant, agreement
or condition contained in this Note and such default continues unremedied for thirty (30) days
after written notice thereof is given to Payor by Payee; provided, however, in the event such
default is curable but is not reasonably capable of cure within said 30-day period, Payor shall
have such additional time as required to cure any such default so long as Payor is diligently
undertaking the cure of such default.

The Payor (i) waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest and notice of any kind, except
for any notice expressly required by the provisions of this Note, and (ii) agrees that it will not
be necessary for the Payee to first institute suit in order to enforce payment of this Note.

The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Note and any dispute arising in
connection herewith or therewith shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York
(without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law).

The Payor irrevocably consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts
of the State of New York located in the County of New York and the United States District Court
whose district covers such county, and waives any objection based on venue or forum non conveniens
with respect to any action instituted therein arising under this Note.

EACH OF PAYOR AND PAYEE HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION
OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS NOTE, AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR
CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY.

The Payor may not assign this Note and/or delegate any of its obligations hereunder without
the written consent of the Payee. This Note is not secured by any collateral of any nature.
Neither this Note nor all or any portion of the Payee’s rights and interests herein may be
negotiated, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred by Payee.

The Payor shall be solely responsible for any necessary tax or assessment relating to this
Note; provided, however, that the Payor shall not be responsible for Payee’s tax obligations
arising from receipt of funds set forth herein.

If any term or provision of this Note shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity of all other terms and provisions hereof shall in no way be affected thereby.

The waiver by the Payee of the Payor’s prompt and complete performance of, or default under,
any provision of this Note shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach
or default, and the failure by the Payee to exercise any right or remedy which it may possess
hereunder or under applicable law shall not operate nor be construed as a bar to the exercise of
any such right or remedy upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or default.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Payor has executed this Promissory Note the day and year first written
above.

RETIREMENT AGREEMENT AND MUTUAL GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS

Matthew E. Avril (“Employee”), Starwood International Licensing Company, S.A.R.L., (“LUXCO”)
and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (“Starwood” and together with LUXCO, the “Company”),
jointly and severally, agree as follows:

ONE: Retirement.

	 	(a)	 	Employee will officially retire from active employment with the Company effective
December 31, 2012. Effective October 1, 2012, he will relinquish his title and
responsibilities as “President – Global Hotel Operations,” but will remain an executive
officer of the Company. From October 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012 he shall perform
such duties as may be assigned to him from time to time by the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company. From and after July 1, 2012, Employee shall perform his
duties from the Company’s offices in Orlando, Florida or such other locations as he deems
desirable and shall no longer have an obligation to work at the Company’s offices in
Stamford, Connecticut. In addition, from and after July 1, 2012, the Company’s policies
limiting the number of outside boards upon which an executive may serve will no longer
apply to Employee.

	 	(b)	 	Effective January 1, 2013 and through March 1, 2013 (the “Retirement Date”), Employee
shall serve as a consultant to the Company. After the Retirement Date, Employee will
perform no further duties, functions or services for the Company or any of its affiliates,
nor will he be entitled to any further compensation and/or benefits except as set forth in
the Agreement.

	 	(c)	 	If, prior to December 31, 2012, Employee is terminated for cause or voluntarily resigns
his employment, the date that Employee’s employment is terminated for cause or he
voluntarily resigns shall be deemed the Retirement Date. For purposes of this Agreement,
“cause,” shall have the meaning set forth in the Employment letter between Starwood and
Employee dated August 22, 2008 as amended by the letter dated December 15, 2011 from LUXCO
to Employee (collectively, the “Employment Agreement”). Employee’s termination of
employment for any other reason shall not affect his rights or obligations under this
Agreement.

TWO: Benefits.

	 	(a)	 	Until the Retirement Date, Employee shall be entitled to all the benefits provided
under or in accordance with the Employment Agreement except as follows: (i) From January
1, 2013 until the Retirement Date, Employee’s right to receive a base salary and bonus
shall terminate and employee shall instead receive a monthly consulting fee of $10,000,
plus reimbursement of reasonable expenses; and (ii) with respect to calendar year 2012,
Employee shall not be entitled to an Annual Bonus in accordance with the Company’s Annual
Incentive Plan for Certain Executives but shall instead be entitled to such bonus, if any,
as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in its sole discretion.

	 	(b)	 	Until the Retirement Date, Employee shall continue to vest in stock options and
restricted stock granted to him pursuant to the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan. From
and after the Retirement Date, all further vesting shall cease and Employee shall forfeit
all unvested options and restricted stock. The terms of all stock options vested as of the
Retirement Date shall be deemed to be amended to allow Employee to continue to exercise
options until the earlier of (i) the fifth anniversary of the Retirement Date and (ii) the
date such options would expire in accordance with their terms. Until the Retirement Date,
Employee shall continue to vest in HOT Feature Units allocated to the Employee under the
Company’s Annual Incentive Plan for Certain Executives (“AIPCE”). On the Retirement Date,
the Company will pay to the Employee a cash payment (the “HOT Payment”) equal to the amount
of the original HOT Feature Deduction applicable to any unvested Units allocated to the
Employee under the AIPCE. Pay out of vested HOT Feature Units and the HOT Payment shall
occur on the Retirement Date, except to the extent that a six month delay, as mandated by
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“409A”), is or would be applicable if both were
paid under the AIPCE. For a period of 18 months after the Retirement Date, the Company
will continue to make COBRA premium payments on Employee’s behalf, minus Employee’s normal
contributions, should Employee elect to continue coverage under the Company’s applicable
insurance plans (and all resulting payments to the Employee shall be paid in accordance
with the plans, but in all cases not later than permissible to comply with 409A. Other
than as set forth in this paragraph (b), Employee’s rights to participate in any other
plans, policies or programs of the Company shall expire on the Retirement Date.

	 	(c)	 	Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Non-Compete Period defined in the
Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Agreement
dated August 22, 2008 between Employee and the Company (the “Non-Competition Agreement”)
shall commence upon the Retirement Date. The Employee further agrees that his rights to
exercise vested options in accordance with paragraph (b) of this section shall immediately
terminate if he should violate the provisions of the Non-Competition Agreement and that,
for purposes of this Agreement, the provisions of the Non-Competition Agreement shall be
deemed to remain in effect until February 28, 2014 or, if later, the date that all of the
Employee’s vested options are exercised or expire in accordance with paragraph (b) above.
The Employee further agrees that for purposes of this Agreement the list of entities
included on Schedule A of the Non-Competition Agreement shall be deemed to include Marriott
Vacations Worldwide Corp.

	 	(d)	 	Employer acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement dated November 23, 2009, as amended by letter
agreement dated December 15, 2001 (collectively, the “Indemnification Agreement”) shall
remain in full force in effect in accordance with its terms.

THREE:  Mutual General Release.

In exchange for the agreement to provide the compensation and other benefits and arrangements
provided for in this Agreement, Employee understands that he is waiving any and all claims Employee
may have against the Company and its affiliates and subsidiaries and its and their officers,
directors, employees, agents, shareholders, employee benefit programs, administrators, insurers,
attorneys and successors and assigns (collectively “Releasees”), from any and all claims, actions,
suits, damages, complaints and grievances Employee, his attorneys, heirs, dependents,
beneficiaries, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns, may have up to the date hereof
related to Employee’s employment with the Company or the cessation of that employment. This
includes a release of any rights or claims Employee may have under the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act, which prohibits discrimination in employment based on age; Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and the Civil Rights Act of 1991, which prohibit discrimination in
employment based on race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion or sex; the Pregnancy
Discrimination Act, which prohibits discrimination based on pregnancy; the Equal Pay Act, which
prohibits paying men and women unequal pay for equal work; the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1871,
as amended, which protect against certain discrimination and violations of individuals’ civil
rights; the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of
physical or mental disability; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), which regulates
certain conduct and practices relating to employee benefit and health plans; the Family and Medical
Leave Act, which provides time off to employees for certain family and medical events and prohibits
discrimination relating to such leaves of absence; the Immigration Reform and Control Act, which
prohibits discrimination based upon an individual’s national origin citizenship status and/or work
authorization documents; the New York State Executive Law, the New York City Administrative Code,
and the New York State Constitution; or any other federal, state or local laws or regulations
prohibiting employment discrimination or regulating employment or termination of employment. This
also includes a release by Employee of any claims for wrongful discharge and any other common law
claims. This release applies to all claims through the date of execution of this Agreement and
covers both claims that Employee knows about and those he may not know about but excludes (i) any
claim by Employee to enforce the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) any claim to enforce Employee’s
defense and/or indemnification rights; and (iii) any claims related to actions or omissions
occurring after the execution of this Agreement.

In consideration of Employee’s agreements hereunder, the Company, on its own behalf and on behalf
of its current and former affiliates or related companies, subsidiaries, branches and divisions,
and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing (collectively, the “Company Releasor”)
hereby releases Employee and Employee’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns
from or in connection with any and all actions, claims or demands, known or unknown and of any
nature whatsoever and which Company Releasor ever had, now has or hereafter can, shall or may have
as of the date hereof relating to Employee’s employment with the Company, except that this Release
shall not apply to (i) any obligation of Employee pursuant to this Agreement ; (ii) any act by
Employee during his employment that would constitute fraud or embezzlement; or (iii) any actions,
claims or demands related to actions or omissions occurring after the date hereof.

Employee acknowledges that the payments and arrangements specified in Paragraph TWO above represent
sufficient consideration for Employee’s release of claims and the other covenants contained in this
Agreement. Employee expressly acknowledges that the compensation and equity vesting provided for
in this Agreement exceeds, supersedes and extinguishes any amount, if any, to which Employee may be
entitled under any employment agreement, verbal or written, as well as any employment or personnel
policies, procedures or handbooks including but not limited to severance plans, policies or
precedent utilized by the Company or any other legal obligation which the Company may have to
Employee. Employee further acknowledges that in the absence of this Agreement, Employee would not
be entitled to, among other things, all of the payments and benefits specified in paragraph TWO
above. Other than Employee’s accrued but unused vacation pay for which Employee will be
compensated and Employee’s 401k plan benefits, Employee also acknowledges that the Company has paid
all sums owed to him as a result of his employment with the Company and/or the termination of that
employment and that, other than as provided in this Agreement, Employee is not entitled to, among
other things, any further pay, benefits or severance.

Employee and the Company acknowledge and agree that to the extent that Employee currently holds
stock options and restricted stock, that this information is accurately set forth on Appendix A
hereto, Employee has no other rights that relate to the securities of the Company or any of its
affiliates or subsidiaries and that other than as set forth herein such equity will expire in
accordance with the applicable long-term incentive plan and/or stock option agreements and/or
restricted stock agreements. Other than the changes in the Employee’s employment and consulting
status as set forth in Paragraph One and other than as detailed expressly in Paragraph Two, nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed to alter, amend or modify the terms and conditions governing
any restricted stock, stock options or similar rights, and any rights pertaining thereto, granted
to Employee prior to the Retirement Date.

FIVE: Termination of All Existing Agreements.

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all rights and obligations of the Company and
Employee under any employment agreement Employee may have had with the Company, and any other
agreement, arrangement, obligation or understanding between the Company and Employee (other than
the Indemnification Agreement and any other rights to indemnification provided to Employee under
any agreement or other obligation of the Company) are hereby cancelled and terminated as of the
Retirement Date without liability of any party thereunder.

SIX: Non-Admission of Liability.

The parties have entered into this Agreement to effect a mutually acceptable cessation of
Employee’s employment with the Company. Neither the Company nor Employee believes nor admits that
either or both of them have done anything wrong.

SEVEN: Period for Review and Consideration of Agreement.

Employee understands that he has been given a period of 21 calendar days to review and consider
this Agreement. Employee further understands that he may take as much or as little of this 21-day
period of time to consider this Agreement as he wishes, before signing this Agreement.

EIGHT: Revocation Period and Payment of Benefits.

This Agreement will not become effective or binding on the parties until seven days after it is
signed, during which time Employee may revoke this Agreement if he desires. Any revocation must be
in writing and directed to Chief Administrative Officer and General Counsel, One StarPoint,
Stamford, CT 06902.

NINE: Encouragement to Consult with Attorney.

Employee is encouraged to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement. Employee
understands that whether to do so is his decision.

TEN: Binding Agreement.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, as well as their
heirs, administrators, representatives, agents, executors, successors and assigns.

ELEVEN: Arbitration.

Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement or its enforceability
shall be finally settled by final and binding arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator selected
by the parties in accordance with the Employment Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

reputation, business or operations of the Company, its customers, its employees, officers,

expected, to disparage or defame Employee.

approval of the Company, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) provided that those expenses are
