IHG ANNOUNCES $31M LIQUIDATED DAMAGES RECEIPT IN Q1 2013

22 January 2013- InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (IHG) [LON:IHG, NYSE:IHG (ADRs)] today announces that it will receive $31m in significant liquidated damages in Q1 2013 from FelCor Lodging Trust (FelCor).

This payment is the result of an agreement between IHG and FelCor that eight properties owned by FelCor (2,526 rooms), currently branded as Holiday Inn hotels, will leave IHG's system on 1 March 2013.

These eight hotels generated $8.5m of fees for IHG in 2011, around 1% of total Americas fee revenue, and represent less than 1% of all rooms branded as Holiday Inn or Holiday Inn Express in the region.

IHG continues to grow its presence for Holiday Inn following the brand family's successful multi-year relaunch. Over 12,500 Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express rooms were opened and almost 19,000 rooms were signed into the Americas pipeline in 2012. This takes the Americas system size for the Holiday Inn brand family to over 315,000 rooms and the development pipeline to over 51,000 rooms as at 31 December 2012.
