Item
7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 13, 2005, Cendant Corporation (the “Company”) announced
an update to its financial projections. The Company also announced specific
actions to address certain challenges at its Travel Distribution Services
Division (TDS) and said its previously announced plan to separate Cendant into
four independent, publicly traded, pure-play companies remains on track, with
certain modifications.
In addition, the Company announced changes in the planned executive
leadership at two of the four standalone companies including that Samuel L. Katz
will no longer serve as Chairman and CEO of TDS, effective immediately, and
that Henry R. Silverman will now become Chairman and CEO of the new Real Estate
Services company upon its expected spin-off in the spring of 2006.
The Company also announced that the new Hospitality company will
now include the Company’s Vacation Network Group that was previously proposed to
become a part of the new TDS company.
Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by
reference is a copy of the press release issued today.
