Report of Independent Auditors

To the Administrative Committee of the
Savings Incentive Plan of CUC International Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for benefits of
the Savings Incentive Plan of CUC International Inc. as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, and the related statements of changes in assets available for benefits for
the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the assets available for benefits of the Plan at December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in its assets available for benefits for the
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules
of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1996, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of complying
with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are
not a required part of the basic financial statements. The Fund Information in
the statement of assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in
assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis
rather than to present the assets available for benefits and changes in assets
available for benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and Fund
Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

SEE ACCOMPANYING NOTES. 5 Savings Incentive Plan of CUC International Inc. Notes to Financial Statements NOTE A- DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The following description of the Savings Incentive Plan (the "Plan") of CUC International Inc. (the "Company") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description or the Plan documents which are available from the Company, for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. The financial statements of the Plan have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, include amounts based upon judgments and estimates made by management, which may differ from actual results. GENERAL The Plan is a defined contribution plan which provides retirement, disability and death benefits to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Plan covers substantially all full-time employees of the Company and its subsidiaries who have been employed for at least one year (amended from six months of service in March 1995) and are age twenty-one or older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). On March 31, 1996, the Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan (the "ESOP") of Getting to Know You, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) terminated and the related participants were given the option to rollover their balances into the Plan. During the year ended December 31, 1996, $7,135,007 from the ESOP was transferred to the Plan. Effective November 1, 1996, Fleet Financial Group ("Fleet") was replaced by The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("MetLife") as the recordkeeper of the Plan. Additionally, effective November 1, 1996, Fleet was replaced by Neuberger & Berman Trust Company ("Neuberger & Berman") as the trustee for the CUC Stock Fund and Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase") as the trustee for all other funds of the Plan. In March 1995, the Plan was amended to eliminate the exclusion of part-time employees and allow for hardship withdrawal for payments of educational fees. The Plan was also amended to permit loans to be made to participants, effective on June 1, 1995. All loans made prior to this date represent loans to the participants of the Employee Stock Ownership and Savings Plan of Entertainment Publications, Inc. transferred on July 1, 1994. On July 18, 1995, the Essex Corporation 401-K Plan merged its assets totaling $2,557,537 into the Plan. On December 8, 1995, the Plan adopted the profit sharing exception to the annuity rules by requiring that the death benefits be payable to the surviving spouse, unless the spouse consents to another beneficiary. 6 Savings Incentive Plan of CUC International Inc. Notes to Financial Statements (continued) NOTE A- DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED) CONTRIBUTIONS Each year, participants may contribute up to 15% (limited to 6% for highly compensated participants) of pretax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan. The Company matches each participant's bi-weekly contribution dollar for dollar of the first $27.69, $.60 for each dollar of the next $36.93, and $.40 for each dollar of the next $27.69, for a total maximum match of $60.92 per bi-weekly pay period. Participants may also contribute amounts representing transfers from other qualified plans, which are not subject to the Company match. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and allocations of the Company's contributions and Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. Forfeited balances of terminated participants' nonvested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions. VESTING Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company matching portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of credited service. A participant is 100% vested after five years of credited service. LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS Effective June 1, 1995, participants may borrow from their fund accounts a maximum of $50,000 or 50% of their account balance. Loan terms range from 1-5 years and are secured by the balance in the participant's account. The loans bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined quarterly by the plan administrator and the trustee. Interest rates on outstanding loans currently range from 7.5% to 12%. Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions. INVESTMENT OPTIONS Upon enrollment in the Plan (and until October 31, 1996), a participant could direct employer and employee contributions in 5% increments in any of the following investment options that were available under the Plan (through Fleet).

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) NOTE B- SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis. INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION The Plan's investments, except for the guaranteed insurance contracts (entered into before December 15, 1993), are stated at fair value. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the plan year. Investments traded on the over-the-counter market for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the average of the last reported bid and ask prices. The shares of registered investment companies are valued at the quoted market price which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. The guaranteed insurance contracts were valued at contract value as estimated by the insurance companies. Contract value represents contributions made under the contract, plus interest at the contract rate, less funds used to pay retirement benefits and to pay for the insurance companies' administrative expenses. All such contracts were sold during 1996. Loans to participants are valued at cost which approximates fair value. Effective October 21, 1996 and June 30, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors approved a three-for-two stock split, in the nature of a stock dividend payable to shareholders of record on October 7, 1996 and June 19, 1995, respectively. Accordingly, all Common Stock share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the stock splits. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The change in the difference between the fair value and the cost of investments is reflected as net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments. The net realized appreciation (depreciation) on investments is the difference between the proceeds received, after fees and expenses, and the average cost of investments sold. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES All administrative expenses incurred in connection with the operation of the Plan are paid by the Company. 9 Savings Incentive Plan of CUC International Inc.

The Plan sponsor is not aware of any course of action or series of events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's qualified status.
