We are pleased to note that, on March 31, 2025, Glass Lewis & Co., a proxy advisory firm, issued a voting recommendation supportingProposal 3. On March 26, 2025, Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”), a proxy advisory firm, issued voting recommendations relating to our 2025 Annual Meeting. In its report, ISS supports our say-on-pay proposal,noting the pay and performance alignment of our executive compensation program. Nevertheless, ISS ultimately recommended stockholders vote against Proposal 3, applying quantitative tests that we believe have significant shortcomings when applied to our industry, business model, and equity compensation needs. Given ISS’ recommendation, we believe it is imperative that we highlight these shortcomings to demonstrate for our stockholders why we consider the ISS analysis to be flawed when applied to Proposal 3.

| • |     | The ISS report’s analysis uses a peer group containing members with fundamentally different business 
 models from our technology focus.                                                                    |

| • |     | As a leading technology company that takes on the biggest opportunities and solves the most complex challenges in                                                                                                                   
 travel, Sabre competes with other technology companies to attract and retain talent. Consistent with other technology companies, we employ a broad-based equity compensation program, offering equity compensation to a significant |

| proportion of our employee base to help us attract and retain talent to allow us to achieve our long-term strategic goals. |

| • |     | The ISS report compares our equity compensation practices against a peer group drawn from companies within the                                                                                                                                         
 broad “Consumer Services” GICS sector designation—a designation that includes a large number of hoteliers, restaurants and leisure venues. We believe many companies within this peer group tend to have fundamentally                                 
 different business models, including how they approach compensation of their team members, particularly regarding the breadth of equity grants. For example, ISS’ analysis indicates the percentage of our                                             
 3-year average grants awarded to our CEO is less than half of the 3-year average grants to CEOs for the Consumer Services sector, highlighting the fact that our equity                                                                                
 grants are distributed more broadly throughout our organization compared to consumer services companies. Not surprisingly, given the inapposite comparison, quantitative measures of our equity grant practices are not aligned with those of consumer 
 services companies.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
