HISTORY OF THE HYATT HOTEL CORPORATION

Hyatt Robert von Dehn and Jack Dyer Crouch were the original owners; after several
years, Von Dehn sold his ownership of the hotel to developer Jay Pritzker. Donald
Pritzker, Jay's younger brother, also played a crucial role in the business. Acquisitions
were made over the next decade, and Hyatt became the fastest-growing hotel chain in
the United States. Donald died in 1972, and Jay took over the firm. Hyatt opened the
first hotel outside the United States, the Hyatt Regency Hong Kong, in 1969. The Grand
Hyatt and Park Hyatt brands debuted in 1980. Hyatt operates luxury hotels, beginning
with the Hyatt Regency Maui in 1980. Hyatt had over 490 hotels around the world as of
2012.

The Hyatt Regency brand is the company's oldest, with the Grand Hyatt and Park Hyatt
brands launched in 1980. Any of these have been marketed as "resort" sites, with spas
and other leisure amenities. Some brands involve Hyatt Place, which was created to
provide a minimal service package for business travelers. Summerfield Suites, an
extended-stay hotel brand, was purchased by Hyatt in 2005 and branded Hyatt House
in January 2012. In April 2007, Hyatt unveiled the Andaz brand. The Great Eastern
Hotel in London was the first Andaz hotel, followed by hotels in San Diego, West
Hollywood, Shanghai, and New York City (Andaz Wall Street & Andaz 5th Avenue).

Hyatt debuted its first all-inclusive resort lines, Ziva and Hyatt Zilara, in November 2013.
Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara now have all-inclusive lodging in Cancun, Puerto Vallarta,
Los Cabos, and Rose Hall, Montego Bay, Jamaica, as of 2015. Hyatt Corporation's
global holdings included 587 assets as of December 31, 2014. Hyatt had over 627
hotels worldwide as of November 30, 2015. Hyatt revealed on October 28, 2015, that it
was in early talks to purchase Starwood Hotels in a cash and equity deal. The deal did
not go ahead, and Starwood was later purchased by Marriott International. On
