Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors: Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On February 9, 2012, the Compensation Policy Committee of the Marriott International, Inc. Board of Directors approved a new form of MI Shares award agreement available for grants to named executive officers, under the Marriott International, Inc. Stock and Cash Incentive Plan, as amended and restated as of May 1, 2009, and amended as of May 7, 2010 (the “Plan”). The form of award agreement provides that vesting of shares under the award, in addition to generally being subject to pro-rata annual vesting conditioned on continued service with the Company, consistent with the standard form of award agreement, also will be subject to satisfaction of a performance condition, expressed as an EBITDA goal, for a fiscal year during the applicable service vesting period (the “Applicable Vesting Period”). The EBITDA goal for awards will be established by the Committee under Section 11.1 of the Plan for each of the Company’s fiscal years during the Applicable Vesting Period and is intended to allow awards to qualify as performance-based compensation that may satisfy the conditions for deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

A copy of the form of award agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 and the foregoing description is qualified by reference to the terms of the award agreement.
