2021 SERVE 360 REPORT ESG PROGRESS AT MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL → 37 Stand Against Racism We recognize that taking a stand to advance racial justice must be a top priority and we are listening to associates, equipping our leaders, taking a very public stand, and engaging in critical public policy work to help address systemic racism. Following the death of George Floyd, Marriott Board members and senior leaders reiterated the importance of accountability, fostering engagement across communities and generations, and providing mentorship and career development opportunities. In 2020, we strengthened engagement with organizations in the Black community that we have worked with for decades, such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and National Urban League. We also formed new relationships with My Brother’s Keeper Alliance and the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund. To support our broader racial justice programming, we aim to strengthen these relationships while also focusing on identifying local engagement opportunities with My Brother’s Keeper Alliance in Baltimore, Chicago, the Greater Washington, D.C. area, and other aligned markets. Additionally, our Marriott Bonvoy ® members can donate loyalty points to select organizations focused on advancing racial equity and justice – points that we will match and then convert to monetary donations for these worthy organizations. In the United States, we will continue to expand our partnerships with Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Marriott-Sorenson Center for Hospitality Leadership at Howard University On February 24, 2021, The J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott Foundation announced a $20 million endowment to establish the Marriott-Sorenson Center for Hospitality Leadership in honor of Marriott’s beloved president and CEO Arne Sorenson who passed away on February 15, 2021 from pancreatic cancer. The J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott Foundation endowment will launch the Center at Howard University, one of the leading historically Black Colleges and Universities in the United States. In addition, Marriott announced the creation of the Arne M. Sorenson Hospitality Fund that will support the critical programmatic and career development elements of the Center.

New and Accelerated DE&I Goals As a part of our efforts to advance women and people of color, Marriott has accelerated our objectives to diversify our leadership and business opportunities.

We also established a new objective to increase the representation of people of color in executive positions in the United States. Our key DE&I goals include: Achieve gender representation parity for global company leadership by 2023 Increase representation of people of color in executive positions from 20.5% to 25% by 2025 Achieve 3,000 diverse- and women-owned hotels by 2025
