HOST HOTELS & RESORTS, INC.
21,311,681 Shares of Common Stock
This prospectus supplement relates to 21,311,681 shares of our common stock that may be offered for resale by the persons or entities listed herein who may become stockholders of ours upon issuance of shares of common stock upon exchange of 3.25% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due April 15, 2024 of Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. (of which we are the sole general partner and in which we own approximately 98% of the partnership interests). Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. issued the debentures in a private offering on March 16, 2004. This prospectus supplement also relates to an indeterminate number of additional shares of our common stock that may be issued from time to time upon exchange of the debentures as a result of exchange rate adjustments under the terms of the debentures.
The selling stockholders named in this prospectus supplement, or in supplements hereto, may sell all or a portion of the common stock, from time to time, in market transactions, in negotiated transactions or otherwise, and at prices and on terms which will be determined by the then prevailing market price for our common stock or at negotiated prices directly or through a broker or brokers, who may act as agent or as principal or by a combination of such methods of sale. In addition, the selling stockholders may offer the common stock from time to time through ordinary brokerage transactions on the New York Stock Exchange. See “Plan of Distribution” in the prospectus dated October 7, 2004 for additional information on the methods of sale.
This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with, and may not be delivered or utilized without, the prospectus. This prospectus supplement is qualified by reference to the prospectus, except to the extent that the information in this prospectus supplement supercedes the information contained in the prospectus.
No securities are being offered or sold by us pursuant to this prospectus supplement. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these shares by the selling stockholders.
Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “HST”. On May 26, 2011, the last reported sale price of our common stock was $17.53 per share.
Our principal executive offices are located at 6903 Rockledge Drive, Suite 1500, Bethesda, Maryland, 20817. Our phone number is (240) 744-1000.
Investing in the offered securities involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 2 of the prospectus dated October 7, 2004.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the offered securities or determined if this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this prospectus supplement May 27, 2011.
The table below supplements or amends the table of stockholders contained on pages 33 through 34 of the Prospectus dated October 7, 2004. Where the name of a selling stockholder identified in the table below also appears in the table in the Prospectus, the information set forth in the table below regarding that selling stockholder supersedes the information in the Prospectus. Currently there is outstanding $325,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. debentures. We may issue the offered shares of common stock to the selling stockholders if, and to the extent, that they exchange their debentures for shares of common stock. The following table provides information regarding the selling stockholders and the number of shares of common stock they are offering for resale.
The exchange rate on the debentures is subject to adjustment in certain events. Accordingly, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exchange of the debentures may increase or decrease from time to time.
Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, we believe that the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned. Because the selling stockholders may offer, pursuant to this prospectus, all or some portion of the common stock listed below, no estimate can be given as to the amount of common stock that will be held by the selling stockholder upon consummation of any sales. In addition, the selling stockholders listed in the table may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, in transactions exempt from registration requirements of the Securities Act, some or all of their debentures or common stock since the date as of which such information was provided to us. The percentage ownership data is based on 686,172,596 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of May 20, 2011.
Unless otherwise set forth below, no selling stockholder has had any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates within the past three years, other than as a stockholder.
We have prepared the table based on information given to us by, or on behalf of, the selling stockholders on or before May 26, 2011. Information about the selling stockholders may change over time. Any changed information given to us by the selling stockholders will be set forth in prospectus supplements or amendments to this prospectus if and when necessary.
