Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 7, 2014, Marriott International, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Marriott”), issued a press release announcing that it sold the London EDITION hotel, and signed binding agreements to sell two other Marriott-owned EDITION hotels currently under development in Miami Beach, Florida and Manhattan, New York to companies ultimately owned by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority. The total purchase price for the three EDITIONs is approximately $815 million, roughly equal to the aggregate estimated total development costs of all three hotels.

Marriott has determined that the asset purchase and sale agreement for the New York EDITION hotel is a material definitive agreement within the meaning of regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and accordingly is issuing this report and filing a copy of that agreement as Exhibit 10.1 hereto. The following description is qualified by reference to that exhibit:

The New York EDITION hotel is presently under construction and Marriott expects that it will open in the first half of 2015. Under the agreement for the sale of the hotel, Marriott will convey the hotel to the new owner after construction is complete, and after certain other customary closing conditions have been satisfied. The purchase price for the hotel is fixed, and Marriott will not recover development costs in excess of the agreed purchase price. Following the sale, Marriott will operate the hotel under a long-term management contract.

Item 7.01. Regulation F.D. Disclosure.

A copy of the press release referred to in Item 1.01 is furnished as Exhibit 99 to this report.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
