Security and Issuer. Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Liberty" or the "Reporting Person"), is filing this Statement on Schedule 13D (this "Statement") with respect to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Cendant Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). The Issuer's principal executive offices are located at 9 West 57th Street, New York, New York 10019. Item 2. Identity and Background. The reporting person is Liberty, whose principal business address is 9197 South Peoria Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112. Liberty CNTD, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty ("Liberty CNDT"), is the registered holder of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Liberty (the "Shares"). Prior to March 9, 1999, Liberty was controlled by Tele-Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("TCI"). TCI's principal business address is 9197 South Peoria Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112. TCI is principally engaged through its subsidiaries and affiliates in the acquisition, development and operation of cable television systems throughout the United States. As a result of the consummation on March 9, 1999 of the merger (the "AT&T Merger") of a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T Corp., a New York corporation ("AT&T"), with and into TCI, (i) TCI became a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T; (ii) the businesses and assets of the Liberty Media Group and TCI Ventures Group of TCI were combined; and (iii) the holders of TCI's Liberty Media Group common stock and TCI Ventures Group common stock received in exchange for their Page 3 of 14 Pages shares a new class of common stock of AT&T intended to reflect the results of AT&T's "Liberty Media Group." Following the AT&T Merger, AT&T's "Liberty Media Group" consists of the assets and businesses of TCI's Liberty Media Group and its TCI Ventures Group prior to the AT&T Merger, except for certain assets that were transferred to TCI's "TCI Group" in connection with the AT&T Merger, and the "AT&T Common Stock Group" consists of all of the other assets and businesses of AT&T. AT&T's principal business address is 32 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10013. AT&T is principally engaged in the business of providing voice, data and video communications services to large and small businesses, consumers and government entities in the United States and internationally. The Board of Directors and management of the Reporting Person manage the business and affairs of the Reporting Person, including, but not limited to, making determinations regarding the disposition and voting of the Shares. Although the Reporting Person is a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T, a majority of the Reporting Person's Board of Directors consists of individuals designated by TCI prior to the AT&T Merger. If these individuals or their designated successors cease to constitute a majority of the Reporting Person's Board of Directors, the Reporting Person will transfer all of its assets and businesses to a new entity. Although this new entity would be owned substantially by AT&T, it would continue to be managed (including with respect to the voting and disposition of the) by management of the Reporting Person prior to such transfer of assets. As a result, the Reporting Person, acting through its Board of Directors and management, will have the power to determine how the Shares will be voted and, subject to the limitations of the Delaware General Corporation law, will have the power to dispose of the Shares, and thus is considered the beneficial owner of the Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. The Liberty Media Group, principally through the Reporting Person, is engaged in (i) the production, acquisition and distribution through all available formats and media of branded entertainment, educational and informational programming and software, including multimedia products, (ii) electronic retailing, direct marketing, advertising sales related to programming services, infomercials and transaction processing, (iii) international cable television distribution, telephony and programming, (iv) satellite communications, and (v) investments in wireless domestic telephony and other technology ventures. Schedule 1 attached to this Statement contains the following information concerning each director, executive officer or controlling person of the Reporting Person: (i) name and residence or business address, (ii) principal occupation or employment; and (iii) the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted. Schedule 1 is incorporated herein by reference. To the knowledge of the Reporting Person, each of the persons named on Schedule 1 (the "Schedule 1 Persons") is a United States citizen, except for David J.A. Flowers, who is a Canadian citizen. During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge of the Reporting Person) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding Page 4 of 14 Pages traffic violations or similar misdemeanors). During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge of the Reporting Person) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such proceeding, is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Schedule 2 attached to this Statement contains the following information, which has been provided to the Reporting Person by AT&T, concerning each director, executive officer or controlling person of AT&T: (i) name and residence or business address, (ii) principal occupation or employment; and (iii) the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted. Schedule 2 is incorporated herein by reference. Based upon information provided to the Reporting Person by AT&T, (i) to the knowledge of AT&T, each of the persons named on Schedule 2 (the "Schedule 2 Persons") is a United States citizen, (ii) during the last five years, neither AT&T nor any of the Schedule 2 Persons (to the knowledge of AT&T) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), and (iii) during the last five years, neither AT&T nor any of the Schedule 2 Persons (to the knowledge of AT&T) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and, as a result of such proceeding, is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. The foregoing summary of the terms of the AT&T Merger is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Agreement and Plan of Restructuring and Merger, dated as of June 23, 1998, among AT&T, Italy Merger Corp. and TCI, a copy of which has been incorporated by reference as Exhibit 7(a), and to the text of the AT&T/TCI Proxy Statement/Prospectus, a copy of which has been incorporated by reference as Exhibit 7(b). Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. The Reporting Person entered into a Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 15, 1999, with the Issuer (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), providing for the acquisition (the "Acquisition") by the Reporting Person of (i) 18,000,000 shares of Common Stock and (ii) a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase up to an additional 28,956,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $23.00 per share (subject to anti-dilution adjustments). The Acquisition was consummated on February 7, 2000, with the Reporting Person paying a cash purchase price of $300,000,000 for the 18,000,000 shares of Common Stock and a cash purchase price of $100,000,000 for the Warrant. The purchase price was paid with funds from Liberty's existing cash reserves.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. The Reporting Person currently holds its interest in the Issuer for investment purposes. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Reporting Person has agreed to work with the Issuer to develop Internet and related opportunities associated with the Issuer's travel, mortgage, real estate and membership businesses. These efforts may include the creation of joint ventures among Liberty, the Issuer and others, as well as equity investments by either Liberty or the Issuer in businesses owned by the other. Liberty and the Issuer have covenanted in the Stock Purchase Agreement to pursue opportunities in the cable industry which leverage the Issuer's direct marketing resources and capabilities. The Issuer has further agreed, in the Stock Purchase Agreement, to assist Liberty in creating a new venture that will seek to provide broadband video, voice and data services and content to hotels and their guests on a worldwide basis, for which the Issuer would receive an equity interest in the venture. Any cooperative efforts between Liberty and the Issuer in respect of the foregoing would require their prior agreement on the terms on which those efforts would be undertaken. The Reporting Person intends to continuously review its investment in the Issuer, and may in the future determine (i) to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, through open market purchases, private agreements or otherwise, (ii) to dispose of all or a portion of the securities of the Issuer owned by it or (iii) to take any other available course of action, which could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in the next paragraph of this Item 4. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Reporting Person specifically reserves the right to change its intention with respect to any or all of such matters. In reaching any decision as to its course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), the Reporting Person currently expects that it would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the Issuer's business and prospects; other developments concerning the Issuer and the travel services, real estate services and alliance marketing businesses generally; other business opportunities available to the Reporting Person; developments with respect to the business of the Reporting Person; changes in law and government regulations; general economic conditions; and money and stock market conditions, including the market price of the securities of the Issuer.

Other than as set forth in this Statement, the Reporting Person has no present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) The acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer; (b) An extraordinary corporate transaction such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; (c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or of any of its subsidiaries; (d) Any change in the present board of directors or management of the Issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; (f) Any other material change in the Issuer's business or corporate structure; (g) Changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person; (h) A class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) A class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) Any action similar to any of those enumerated in this paragraph. The foregoing summary of the terms of the Trust Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Trust Purchase Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 7(e) to this Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.

Anti-Dilution Provisions. ------------------------ 7.1 Adjustment for Dividends in Other Securities, Property, Etc; ------------------------------------------------------------ Reclassification, Etc.

The "Determination Date" means the earlier of (A) the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the subscription rights or warrants to which this paragraph (b) applies and (B) the "ex-dividend" date for the issuance of such subscription rights or warrants. The adjustment pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be made successively whenever any distribution to which this paragraph (b) applies, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution. Upon each adjustment to the Exercise Price as a result of this paragraph (b), this Warrant shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Exercise Price, that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest hundredth) obtained by (x) multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant prior to such adjustment by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the adjustment of the Exercise Price and (y) dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment of the Exercise Price.

In case the Company (or any other corporation or other entity, the securities of which are at the time receivable on exercise of this Warrant) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then, if and only if the consideration per share of Common Stock received in such transaction is comprised solely of cash ("Cash Consideration") and such Cash Consideration is equal to or less than the Exercise Price then the Warrants shall automatically expire upon consummation of such transaction provided that, in each case, the Warrants shall survive -------- consummation of such transaction and the terms of this Section 7.2 shall apply.
