Independent Auditors Report
The Profit Sharing Committee and Participants
Marriott International, Inc. Employees Profit Sharing, Retirement and
Savings Plan and Trust:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Marriott International, Inc. Employees Profit Sharing, Retirement and Savings Plan and Trust (the Plan) as of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Marriott International, Inc. Employees Profit Sharing, Retirement and Savings Plan and Trust as of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules as of and for the plan year ended December 31, 2002, of Assets Held at End of Year (schedule I), and Investment Assets Both Acquired and Disposed of Within the Plan Year (schedule II), and Reportable Transactions (schedules III and IV) are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

(1) | Description of Plan |
The following description of the Marriott International, Inc. (the Company) Employees Profit Sharing, Retirement and Savings Plan and Trust (the Plan), provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions.
During 1999, the Plan was amended to allow for a leveraged employee stock ownership plan feature (ESOP) to fund certain employer contributions to the Plan. During the second quarter of 2000, the ESOP, at the direction of an independent fiduciary, borrowed $1 billion dollars from the Company to acquire 100,000 shares of special-purpose Marriott International, Inc. ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock (ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock). The ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock had a stated value and a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share, paid a quarterly dividend of 1% of the stated value, and was convertible into the Companys Class A Common Stock at any time based on the amount of contributions the Company had made to the ESOP and the market price of the Companys Class A Common Stock on the conversion date, subject to certain caps and a floor price. The shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock were pledged as collateral for the repayment of the ESOPs note, and those shares were released from the pledge as principal on the note was repaid. Shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock released from the pledge were either converted to the Companys Class A Common Stock or were redeemed for cash based on the value of the Class A Common Stock into which those shares could be converted for allocation to participants accounts. Principal and interest on the ESOPs note were forgiven periodically to release shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock with a value sufficient to fund certain employer contributions to the Plan. The last of the shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock were released to fund contributions as of July 18, 2002, at which time the remainder of the principal and interest due on the ESOPs note was forgiven. As of December 31, 2002, there were no outstanding shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock.
Effective December 16, 2002, the Forum Group, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan, a qualified profit sharing plan sponsored by a subsidiary of the Company, was merged with and into the Plan (the Merger), and assets under that plan were transferred to the Plans trust. In connection with the Merger, $2,288,292 of net assets were transferred to the Plan and used to purchase investment funds offered by the Plan. These transferred net assets are included in the Plans Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits for the period from the Merger through December 31, 2002.
(a) | General |
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering certain employees of the Company who are at least 21 years of age and have completed at least one year of service. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). For the Plan year ended December 28, 2001, the plan year was the same as the fiscal year of the Company. Effective for the Plan year beginning December 29, 2001, the Plan year end was changed to a calendar year end, resulting in a December 31, 2002 year end. Future Plan years will be the same as the calendar year.
(b) | Contributions |
Beginning on December 29, 2001, each pay period, participants may contribute up to 80% or a fixed dollar amount (minimum of $3 per week) of compensation. Prior to December 29, 2001 the maximum percentage that a participant could contribute was 15% of compensation. The Companys contribution to the Plan is based on a fixed match of 100% on the first 3% of annual contributions, and 50% on the next 3% of annual contributions. In general, Company contributions are allocated among active participants accounts after the close of the Plan year, in proportion to each participants basic savings during the year. Basic savings represent up to the first 6% of a participants annual compensation. Contributions are subject to certain limitations.
4
Additional Company contributions of a fixed dollar amount per workweek are made on behalf of certain associate groups at specified locations. These contributions are limited to non-highly compensated associates who are otherwise eligible to participate in the Plan.
(c) | Participant Accounts |
Each participants account is credited with the participants contribution and allocations of (a) the Companys contribution, and (b) Plan earnings or losses, and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Forfeitures of terminated participants nonvested accounts are to be used to pay administrative expenses. Allocations of the Companys contribution are based on participant contributions, as defined above. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participants vested account.
(d) | Vesting |
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Participants are immediately 100% vested in Company contributions attributable to the 2001 Plan year and thereafter and earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company contributions prior to 2001 and earnings thereon is based on years of service, with participants becoming fully vested, regardless of years of service, upon divestiture of unit (place of work), death, termination of employment due to permanent disability, or attainment of age 55 for salaried participants or age 45 for most hourly participants.
(e) | Participant Notes Receivable |
Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund from (to) the Participant Notes fund. Loan terms range from one to four years or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are collateralized by the vested balance in the participants account and bear interest at the prime rate published by the Wall Street Journal plus 100 basis points. Interest rates range from 5.75% to 10.50%. Principal and interest are paid ratably through weekly or biweekly after-tax payroll deductions. Participants are limited to one outstanding loan. As of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, participant notes receivable totaled $40,907,718 and $37,109,761, respectively, and are recorded in investments, at fair value or contract value on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
(f) | Payment of Benefits |
For distributions which began before July 31, 2001, on termination of service, a participant with a vested account balance greater than $5,000 could elect to receive either a lump-sum amount or installment payments equal to the value of the participants vested interest in his or her account, or have the Plan purchase an annuity contract from a commercial insurance company for payment for a term certain or life. For distributions which begin on or after July 31, 2001, the Plan no longer provides for the purchase of an annuity contract. A participant with an account balance of $5,000 or less must take a lump sum distribution.
(g) | Forfeited Accounts |
On termination of service, the unvested portion of a participants Company contribution account is forfeited after five consecutive one-year breaks in service or, if earlier, when he takes a distribution of his entire account balance. Forfeitures are used to pay Plan expenses. As of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, a forfeiture credit balances of $349,050 and $78,756, respectively, was available to pay plan expenses.
5
(h) | Administration |
The Company serves as the named fiduciary of the Plan. Administration of the Plan is under the direction of (i) a five-member Profit Sharing Committee, all of whom are corporate officers of the Company, (ii) two trustees, both of whom are corporate officers of the Company, and (iii) a plan administrator, who is an employee of the Company. The trustees and their investment advisors and investment managers appointed by the Profit Sharing Committee are responsible for investment of the Plan assets.
(i) | Administrative and Investment Expenses |
To the extent not paid by the Company or from forfeitures, certain administrative and all investment expenses are paid by the Plan and are allocated to participants based on account balances.
(j) | Plan Termination |
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
(2) | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
(a) | Basis of Accounting |
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting.
(b) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions to and deductions from net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(c) | Investments Valuation and Income Recognition |
The investments directed by participants as of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, are stated at fair value except for the Plans investments in Guaranteed Investment Contracts (GICs) with fully benefit responsive features, which are valued at contract value. Shares of mutual and collective investment funds are valued at estimated market prices, which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. The Company stock is valued at its quoted market price. Participant notes receivable are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
The investment in the ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock is recorded at the value reported to the Plan by the investment manager. This value is a good faith estimate based on the value of Marriott International, Inc. Class A Common Stock that the Plan could have acquired after exercising certain exchange and conversion rights of the ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an average cost method. Investment earnings are allocated to accounts of Plan participants on a daily basis.

(d) | Payment of Benefits |
Benefits are recorded when paid.
(3) | Investments |

(5) | Related-Party Transactions |
The Plan may, at the discretion of Plan participants, invest an unlimited amount of its assets in securities issued by the Company. The Plan held 7,171,532 and 7,067,592 shares of common stock of the Company as of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, respectively. Dividends on Marriott International, Inc. common stock approximated $1,518,889 and $1,852,934 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, respectively. In addition, as described in note 1, in June 2000, the Plan purchased ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock from Marriott International, Inc. in exchange for a note (as described in note 7). As of December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, the Plan held zero and 29,124.7597 shares of the ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, dividends earned on the ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock were $970,157 and $15,609,934, respectively.

Certain investments are purchased from the Custodian and certain investments are managed by the Plan recordkeeper (T. Rowe Price). Fees paid by the Plan for the investment management services amounted to approximately $268,000 and $225,000 for Bankers Trust Company and $927,000 and $676,000 for T. Rowe Price for the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, respectively.
(6) | Guaranteed Investment Contracts |
The Plan is invested in certain investment contracts with insurance companies. The custodians of these investment contracts are T. Rowe Price and PRIMCO. The investment contracts are credited with earnings on the underlying investments and charged for Plan withdrawals and administrative expenses. The contracts are carried at contract value (which represents contributions made under the contracts, plus earnings, less withdrawals and administrative expenses), because they are fully benefit responsive. There are no reserves against contract value for credit risk of the contract issuer or otherwise. The estimated fair value of the investment contracts at December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001 was $455,133,307 and $440,278,674, respectively. The average yield was approximately 5.81% and 5.73% for the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 28, 2001, respectively.
The fair values for these GICs have been estimated based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The estimated fair value is calculated based on the net present value of expected future payments, which include interest and a lump sum contract amount, discounted at a rate determined by the quality of the GICs and the average remaining life. This calculation is necessary, as GICs are not actively traded investments for which a daily fair value is readily available.
The issuers of the GICs are generally insurance companies. Where there are no underlying assets collateralizing the investment, the Plans ultimate realization of amounts invested in GICs is dependent on the continued financial stability of the issuers of the GICs.
(7) | ESOP Note |
As discussed in note 1, the Plan was amended to include an ESOP to fund certain employer contributions to the Plan. On June 13, 2000, the Plan purchased $1.0 billion of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock with the proceeds of a loan from the Company. The ESOP issued a note (the ESOP Note) in connection with the purchase of the ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock, which matures on June 13, 2010. Principal payments of $25 million are scheduled on September 13, December 13, March 13, and June 13 of each year with all remaining amounts due at maturity. The last of the shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock were released to fund contributions as of July 18, 2002, at which time the remainder of the principal and interest due on the ESOPs note was forgiven. As of December 31, 2002, there were no outstanding shares of ESOP Convertible Preferred Stock.
