Public Market Performance
The timeshare industry declined precipitously during the most recent recession due to excessleverage, collateral deterioration and a weakening in resort real estate valuations; however, theindustry has recovered from its 2009 lows and is continuing its recovery in-line with the broadermarket
Marriott International, Inc. (NYSE: MAR) announced in February 2011 that it will spin off itstimeshare operations and development business to provide investors with a “pure play” timesharefirm while refocusing Marriott International’s strategy toward traditional hospitality managementfunctions
MAR’s decision to spin off its timeshare business as an independent, NYSE-listed firm will improveinvestor awareness and understanding of the industry, as many analysts who currently cover MARare expected to continue coverage of Marriott’s timeshare segment following the spin off
MAR’s spin off will add transparency to an industry often overlooked by Wall Street
MAR is 3.0 to 5.0 times larger than many of its smaller public counterparts and if the MAR offeringperforms well, this may allow for the possibility of other timeshare related equity offerings

Market Overview
As the timeshare market continues to recover from the dramatic contraction of the tourism industryand overall decline in consumer discretionary spending, Western Reserve believes a “dose of equity”is needed to aid this recovery and recapitalize this highly leveraged industry
Significant consolidation is expected among smaller private operators, which do not possess criticalmass to pursue public equity and are too small and complex for most institutional investors;however, the current market environment bodes well for strategic buyers seeking to execute roll-upacquisition strategies, thereby growing their operating platform
Many timeshare operators are seeking additional capital, but most are pursuing alternatives totraditional industry-specific debt financing
The timeshare industry is notoriously complex due to the nature of the relationships amongtimeshare developers, resort managers, customers, lenders and shareholders; however, thissituation represents a unique investment opportunity to those who understand such intricacies
Currently, there are several institutional investors working to develop an understanding of theindustry, but there is room for only a handful of sponsors due to its size and complexity

May-2011: Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Estate of Island One Resorts, a large private operator of nine resort properties is recapitalized andreorganized by Timeshare Acquisitions LLC
May-2011: Cerberus Capital Management closes its $94m acquisition of Silverleaf Resorts (announced on February 3, 2011), a 75% premiumover Silverleaf’s pre-announcement market capitalization.
Apr-2011: Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Estate of Tempus Resorts, assets are acquired by Tempus Resort Acquisitions LLC, an affiliate of DiamondResort Holdings and Guggenheim Partners
Feb-2011: Marriott International announced the spin off of its timeshare business, Marriott Vacation Club International. Many analystsexpect the offering to be priced between 7.0x – 10.0x Enterprise Value to 2012P EBITDA (“EV/EBITDA”)
Recent Public Timeshare Operators’[1] Performance
Improvement in Securitization Issuances
Timeshare developers typically provide financing options for theircustomers, charging average interest rates between 12% and 16%
Following sales of timeshare interests, developers often pool andsecuritize balances due from customers; these securities areissued to the public and typically are guaranteed by thedevelopers. Larger, diversified developers (e.g., Wyndham) enjoyhigher advance rates and lower yields
Before the economic downturn, timeshare companies issuedcollateralized debt securities at advance rates between 80% and90% and with yields between 6% and 8%; however, beginning in2008 advances on customer receivables plummeted to ratesbelow 60% with yields soaring above 10%
In 2008, timeshare companies began collecting and publishing thecredit quality of customers’ securitized accounts receivable, asmeasured by purchasers’ average FICO scores; as a result of thisadditional disclosure, the yields on many classes of timeshare ABSrose significantly
Wyndham’s Historical Securitizations
Silverleaf acquisition
announced at $2.50 a share
Currently, timeshare companies are completing receivable securitizations of receivables backed by customers with average FICOs between700 and 725 and expect advance rates of approximately 75% to 90%; these receivable securitizations are yielding between 5% and 8%, manyABS classes backed by purchasers with undisclosed FICO scores typically yield 12%
In the past, timeshare companies derived significant cash flow from the interest rate spread on financed purchases and ABS yields; however,due to the perilous combination of rising customer defaults, declining advance rates and escalating yields, this source of cash has beenlimited

Larger Operators are Capitalizing on Current
Capital Markets Conditions
The industry is currently in need of a “reset” period where pricingneeds to adjust to reflect perceived value. This reset period hasbeen delayed as pricing adjustments have been limited by lenders,who are unwilling to take discounts on developer debt balances
Larger timeshare operators such as Marriott, Wyndham,Starwood, Hilton, Disney, Bluegreen and Silverleaf have shored upbalance sheets and have effectively navigated the recentrecession. These operators have been successfully issuingsecuritizations, with five of these major operators issuingsecuritizations totaling approximately $2.5b in 2010 and 2011YTD
The timeshare securitization market is recovering withsecuritization issuance totaling $1.5b, $1.8b and over $2.5b, in2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively
Note restructuring has produced credit enhancements, helpinglarger operators mitigate and absorb the recent increasein membership defaults. Credit enhancements includingovercollateralization, additional reserves and excess spread havebeen implemented by larger timeshare operators
There is a current dislocation in the timeshare capital markets aslarger operators are able to access capital while smaller,distressed operators are in need of and currently seeking capital
Timeshare Market Update 3
Timeshare Consumer and Operator Outlook
Net timeshare originations plunged 35% to $6.3 billion in 2009and are down over 40% from the 2007 peak. Total revenues formany of the larger public operators increased in 2010 due tostabilization in receivables portfolios and stronger interest income
Buyers now perceive timeshare purchases almost solely as alifestyle investment
Timeshare owners continue to fall behind on timeshare loans;however, default rates as of December 2010 were at 8.5%, downfrom their peak in January 2010 when 10.0% of timeshare ownerswere in default
The resale market for timeshare owners has been difficult tonavigate, with a 2010 median resale price of $9,000 and someresales selling as low as 10% of the original purchase price
In some instances, cash-strapped timeshare owners are trying togive their units back to developers, but most developers alreadyhave excess inventory
Timeshare operators have been under pressure to trim HOA fees;however, this may lessen as hotel and condominium occupancyand rental rates rise

Timeshare lenders are looking for long-term solutions when dealing with distressed assets. They prefer “fee for service” or other mortgageportfolio work-outs over upfront discounts on their debt
Capital Markets Overview
Relevant Public Comparable Metrics
Timeshare resort valuation multiples have recovered from the 2009 lows and are in line with 2007 valuations, signaling that future revenueand EBITDA growth may be priced into current public market valuations
Analysts are currently valuing public timeshare operating assets between 7.0x – 10.0x 2011P EBITDA, while traditional hotel assets aretrading at 12.0x – 14.0x 2011P EBITDA. This difference is evident in the multiples below, as larger diversified hotel operators (i.e. Marriottand Starwood) are trading at 3.0x – 6.0x EV/EBITDA premiums over other timeshare focused businesses
