  New York, NY, April 20, 2004
  – At its annual meeting held here today, Cendant Corporation
  (NYSE: CD)
  announced that stockholders approved a proposal submitted by the Company to declassify its Board of Directors so that all Directors are subject to re-election on an annual basis.
  Cendant's Chairman, CEO and President, Henry R. Silverman stated: "Our Board is committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance and accountability to stockholders. This is further evidence of the Board's commitment to real action in these important areas."

Rosenberg as members of the Company's Board of Directors and ratified the selection of Deloitte & Touche L.L.P. as auditors of Cendant's financial statements for fiscal year 2004.
