provision of severance pay and acceleration and/or extension of such equity awards, as discussed
above, (i) shall be paid in lieu of any severance benefits otherwise payable to you under any

you evaluated a development opportunity on behalf of Wyndham Worldwide or its
affiliates unless that opportunity was brought forward to and rejected by the
Investment Committee or (y) other than with the prior written consent of the Wyndham
Worldwide Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, where Wyndham Worldwide or any of
its affiliates has developed or is in the process of developing a mixed use
hotel/timeshare development project; or (ii) solicit for employment any then
existing Wyndham Worldwide employees, consultants, agents or customers.

Dear Tom:

     Reference is made to that letter confirming our discussion regarding your new expanded
responsibilities in connection with your employment with Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (“Wyndham

of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance
issued thereunder (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), Wyndham Worldwide would like to further
clarify the terms of your bonus, perquisites and severance benefit set forth in the Offer Letter.

     Your bonus and any bonus modifier under the Wyndham Worldwide bonus plan will be paid to you
at such time as shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of Wyndham Worldwide’s Board of
Directors, but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year
such bonus is earned. In accordance with our new reimbursement policy, Wyndham Worldwide will
reimburse all taxable business expenses to you on or before the last day of your taxable year
following the taxable year in which the expenses are incurred.

     In the event your employment with Wyndham Worldwide is terminated by Wyndham Worldwide other
than for cause (as defined by Wyndham Worldwide) and other than in connection with your disability,
which prevents you from performing services for Wyndham Worldwide for a period of 6 months, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Letter, you will receive severance pay equal to
two years of your then current base salary plus target bonus (excluding bonus modifier) in the form
of a lump sum payment no later than the 60th day following the date of termination;
provided that, to the extent your severance payment is subject to Code Section 409A, your
termination of employment must constitute a “separation from service” under Code Section 409A.

     Although Wyndham Worldwide does not guarantee to you any particular tax treatment relating to
any payments made or benefits provided to you in connection with your employment at Wyndham
Worldwide, it is intended that such payments and benefits be exempt from, or comply with, Code

consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A.

 

     Except as provided herein all terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Letter shall remain
in effect.

regarding a dispute, claim, or controversy covered by this Agreement to proceed, the parties hereto
hereby waive any and all right to a trial by jury in or with respect to such litigation.

          (e) The parties shall keep confidential, and shall not disclose to any person, except as may
be required by law, the existence of any controversy hereunder, the referral of any such
controversy to arbitration or the status or resolution thereof.

          26. Voluntary Execution. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has been

also agrees that Executive has entered into the Release freely and voluntarily. Executive further
acknowledges and agrees that Executive has had at least twenty-one (21) calendar days to consider
the Release, although Executive may sign it sooner if Executive wishes. In addition, once
Executive has signed the Release, Executive shall have seven (7) additional days from the date of

herein. The Release shall not be effective, and no payments shall be due hereunder, until the
eighth (8th) day after Executive shall have executed the Release and returned it to the Company,
assuming that Executive had not revoked Executive’s consent to the Release prior to such date (the
“Effective Date”).
