Choice Hotels International, Inc. published the following communication on its LinkedIn page on January 22, 2024. This communication also includes the infographic filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto.

We are excited to announce the proposal of a full slate of independent, highly qualified individuals to stand for election at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.

The nominees are accomplished, proven leaders who have a deep understanding of the hospitality sector and the nuances of the franchising model. Most importantly, they will exercise their own independent judgment regarding Wyndham shareholders’ best interests. Choice believes that, after exercising their independent judgement, the director nominees will conclude that the best outcome for Wyndham shareholders is to move with urgency to maximize the value that can be created for them through a combination with Choice.

Many Wyndham shareholders have expressed their support for a Choice-Wyndham combination. By supporting these nominees and participating in our exchange offer, Wyndham’s shareholders can send a clear message to the Wyndham Board.
