k a $40 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities primarily due to higher accrued<br />

employee incentive compensation costs across all of our businesses, higher accrued interest on our nonsecuritized<br />

long-term debt and increased litigation expenses at our vacation ownership business; and<br />

k a $14 million increase in accounts payable primarily due to the acquisitions of Hoseasons, ResortQuest<br />

and James Villa Holidays, partially offset by the timing of payments on accounts payable across all of our<br />

businesses.<br />

Total stockholders’ equity increased $229 million primarily due to:<br />

k $379 million of net income generated during 2010;<br />

k $188 million related to the reversal of net deferred tax liabilities primarily attributable to an installment<br />

sale recognition adjustment resulting from the IRS settlement;<br />

k a $40 million impact resulting from the exercise of stock options during 2010;<br />

k a change of $17 million in deferred equity compensation;<br />

k a $12 million increase to our pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies due to the<br />

vesting of equity awards;<br />

k a $12 million impact resulting from (i) the reclassification of an $8 million after-tax unrealized loss<br />

associated with the termination of an interest rate swap agreement in connection with the early<br />

extinguishment of our term loan facility during the first quarter of 2010 (see Note 13 — Long-Term Debt<br />

and Borrowing Arrangements) and (ii) $4 million of unrealized gains on cash flow hedges, net of tax; and<br />

k $5 million of currency translation adjustments, net of a tax benefit.<br />

Such increases were partially offset by:<br />

k $237 million of treasury stock purchased through our stock repurchase program;<br />

k $98 million for the repurchase of warrants; and<br />

k $89 million related to dividends.<br />

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES<br />

Currently, our financing needs are supported by cash generated from operations and borrowings under our<br />

revolving credit facility. In addition, certain funding requirements of our vacation ownership business are met<br />

through the issuance of securitized debt to finance vacation ownership contract receivables. We believe that our net<br />

cash from operations, cash and cash equivalents, access to our revolving credit facility and continued access to the<br />

securitization and debt markets provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our ongoing needs.<br />

During March 2010, we replaced our five-year $900 million revolving credit facility with a $950 million<br />

revolving credit facility that expires on October 1, 2013 and, subsequently, increased the capacity of this facility to<br />

$970 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. In October 2010, we renewed our 364-day, non-recourse, securitized<br />

vacation ownership bank conduit facility, with a term through September 2011 and total capacity of $600 million.<br />

We may, from time to time, depending on market conditions and other factors, repurchase our outstanding<br />

indebtedness, including our convertible notes, whether or not such indebtedness trades above or below its face<br />

amount, for cash and/or in exchange for other securities or other consideration, in each case in open market<br />

purchases and/or privately negotiated transactions.<br />

CASH FLOWS<br />
