(c) Comparable hotel adjusted operating profit margin is calculated as the comparable hotel adjusted operating profit divided by the comparable hotel sales per the table above. (d) The reconciliation of total revenues per the consolidated statements of operations to the comparable hotel sales is as follows (in millions): Quarter ended Year ended December 31, December 31, 2004 2003 2004 2003 Revenues per the consolidated statements of operations $1,181 $1,042 $3,640 $3,288 Revenues of hotels held for sale 21 21 70 66 Non-comparable hotel sales (100) (50) (292) (137) Hotel sales for the property for which we record rental income, net 16 15 47 46 Rental income for office buildings and limited service hotels (27) (24) (80) (75) Other income (1) - (1) (12) Adjustment for hotel sales for comparable hotels to reflect Marriott's fiscal year for Marriott- managed hotels - 11 (11) (6) Comparable hotel sales $1,090 $1,015 $3,373 $3,170 (e) The reconciliation of operating costs per the consolidated statements of operations to the comparable hotel expenses is as follows (in millions): Quarter ended Year Ended December 31, December 31, 2004 2003 2004 2003 Operating costs and expenses per the consolidated statements of operations $1,033 $941 $3,233 $2,989 Operating costs of hotels held for sale 18 17 58 55 Non-comparable hotel expenses (75) (34) (210) (112) Hotel expenses for the property for which we record rental income 15 14 47 46 Rent expense for office buildings and limited service hotels (24) (24) (78) (74) Adjustment for hotel expenses for comparable hotels to reflect Marriott's fiscal year for Marriott- managed hotels - 10 (10) (5) Depreciation and amortization (111) (108) (354) (347) Corporate and other expenses (24) (21) (67) (60) Comparable hotel expenses $832 $795 $2,619 $2,492 (f) Non-comparable hotel results, net, includes the following items: (i) the results of operations of our non-comparable hotels whose operations are included in our consolidated statement of operations as continuing operations and (ii) the difference between the number of days of operations reflected in the comparable hotel results and the number of days of operations reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. For detail, see "Introductory Notes to Financial Information." (g) Included in our comparable hotel results are four hotels that are classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2004. Because the hotels are classified as held for sale, their operating results are not included in the revenues or operating costs and expenses from continuing operations, but are instead included in discontinued operations. We continue to include them as comparable hotels, however, because the operating results for these properties were reported by us throughout the entire reporting periods being compared. (h) Represents rental income less rental expense for limited service properties and office buildings. For detail, see footnote (b) to the statements of operations.

(b) EITF 04-08, "The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings per Share," became effective in the fourth quarter of 2004 and, as a result, the Exchangeable Senior Debentures are now included as a potentially dilutive security. (c) FFO per diluted share in accordance with NAREIT is adjusted for the effects of dilutive securities. Dilutive securities may include shares granted under comprehensive stock plans, those preferred OP units held by minority partners, other minority interests that have the option to convert their limited partnership interest to common OP units, the Convertible Subordinated Debentures and the Exchangeable Senior Debentures. No effect is shown for securities if they are anti- dilutive. (d) FFO per diluted share for 2004 and 2003 was affected by several transactions, which are detailed in the table entitled, "Schedule of Significant Transactions Affecting Earnings per Share, Funds from Operations per Diluted Share and Adjusted EBITDA."

We recognized these costs in conjunction with the prepayment or refinancing of senior notes and mortgages during 2003 and 2004. (2) As a result of the New York Marriott World Trade Center hotel insurance settlement in the fourth quarter of 2003, we recorded a gain of approximately $212 million, which was comprised of $156 million in post-2003 business interruption proceeds and $56 million from the disposition of the hotel. See the previous discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, which describes why we exclude gain and loss on dispositions from FFO per diluted share and Adjusted EBITDA. For these reasons, we have also excluded the $156 million gain on settlement for business interruption insurance proceeds for the periods subsequent to December 31, 2003 from Adjusted EBITDA. These business interruptions proceeds, because they relate to future periods for a hotel that, even if rebuilt would be in a different location and would be significantly different from the prior hotel, are not consistent with reflecting the ongoing performance of our remaining assets. (3) In the fourth quarter of 2003, we made a partial repayment of the Canadian mortgage debt which resulted in the related forward currency contracts hedge being deemed ineffective for accounting purposes. Accordingly, we recorded an approximate $17 million decrease in net income, FFO and Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter in addition to the approximate $1 million recorded in the first three quarters of 2003. (4) Represents the portion of the significant transactions attributable to minority partners in Host LP. (5) Represents the original issuance costs for the Class A preferred stock, which was required to be included in the calculation of earnings (loss) per share in conjunction with the redemption of the Class A preferred stock in the third quarter of 2004, as well as the incremental dividends from the date of issuance of the Class E preferred stock to the date of redemption of the Class A preferred stock. For additional information, see footnote (f) to the consolidated statements of operations. (6) During the third quarter of 2003, we recognized approximately $10 million of other income from the settlement of a claim that we brought against our directors' and officers' insurance carriers for reimbursement of defense costs and settlement payments incurred in resolving a series of related actions brought against us and Marriott International that arose from the sale of certain limited partnership units to investors prior to 1993. The effect on net income (loss) and FFO is approximately $7 million due to income taxes on the proceeds.

These tables are forward-looking and as such contain assumptions by management based on known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual transactions, results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future transactions, results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by this table. General economic conditions, competition and governmental actions will affect future transactions, results, performance and achievements. Although we believe the expectations reflected in this reconciliation are based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that the expectations will be attained or that any deviations will not be material. For purposes of preparing the full year and first quarter 2005 forecasts, we have made the following assumptions: * RevPAR will increase between 6.5% to 8.5% for the full year and 6.0% to 8.0% for the first quarter for the low and high ends of the forecasted range, respectively. * Comparable hotel adjusted operating profit margins will increase 100 basis points and 150 basis points for the full year for the low and high ends of the forecasted range, respectively. * Approximately $325 million of hotels will be sold in 2005, including $128 million of sales in January 2005 and 85% of the Company's interest in the Courtyard joint venture will be sold for approximately $92 million. * Approximately $400 million of acquisitions will be made in 2005. * Approximately $500 million of debt will be refinanced and approximately $140 million of debt will be prepaid in 2005. Charges, net of the minority interest benefit, totaling approximately $40 million, or $.10 of FFO per diluted share, in call premiums and the acceleration of deferred financing costs associated with the debt repayments will be incurred for the full year. * Fully diluted shares will be 385.4 million for the low-end of the range and 416.3 million for the high-end of the range for the full year and 381.7 million for the first quarter. (b) Represents FFO attributable to the minority interests in Host LP. (c) FFO per diluted share in accordance with NAREIT is adjusted for the effects of dilutive securities. Dilutive securities may include shares granted under comprehensive stock plans, those preferred OP Units held by minority partners, other minority interests that have the option to convert their limited partnership interest to common OP Units, the Convertible Subordinated Debentures and the Exchangeable Senior Debentures. No effect is shown for securities if they are anti- dilutive.
