This excerpt taken from the WYN 8-K filed Jul 19, 2006. Trading Between the Record Date and Distribution Date Beginning on or shortly before the record date and continuing up to and including through the distribution date, there will be two markets in Cendant common stock: a regular-way market and an ex-distribution market. Shares of Cendant common stock that trade on the regular way market will trade with an entitlement to shares of our common stock distributed pursuant to the distribution. Shares that trade on the ex-distribution market will trade without an entitlement to shares of our common stock distributed pursuant to the distribution. Therefore, if you sell shares of Cendant common stock in the regular-way market up to and including through the distribution date, you will be selling your right to receive shares of Wyndham Worldwide common stock in the distribution. If you own shares of Cendant common stock at the close of business on the record date and sell those shares on the ex-distribution market up to and including through the distribution date, you will still receive the shares of our common stock that you would be entitled to receive pursuant to your ownership of the shares of Cendant common stock.

Table of ContentsFurthermore, beginning on or shortly before the record date and continuing up to and including through the distribution date, there will be a when-issued market in our common stock. When-issued trading refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally because the security has been authorized but not yet issued. The when-issued trading market will be a market for shares of our common stock that will be distributed to Cendant stockholders on the distribution date. If you owned shares of Cendant common stock at the close of business on the record date, you would be entitled to shares of our common stock distributed pursuant to the distribution. You may trade this entitlement to shares of our common stock, without the shares of Cendant common stock you own, on the when-issued market. On the first trading day following the distribution date, when issued trading with respect to our common stock will end and regular-way trading will begin. |
