capacity or as an employee, as applicable, such change in status shall not be deemed a Termination of Employment. A Participant employed by, or performing services for, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate or a division of the Company and its Affiliates

thereafter become an employee of (or service provider for), or member of the board of directors of, the Company or another Subsidiary or Affiliate. Temporary absences from employment because of illness, vacation or leave of absence and transfers
among the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall not be considered Terminations of Employment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Separation shall not constitute a Termination of Employment for purposes of any Adjusted Award. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, with respect to any Award that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, “Termination of Employment” shall mean a “separation from service” as
defined under Section 409A of the Code.

all or any part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it. 
 (ii) Subject
to Section 11(c), any authority granted to the Committee may also be exercised by the full Board. To the extent that any permitted action taken by the Board conflicts with action taken by the Committee, the Board action shall control.

 (c) Discretion of Committee. Subject to Section 1(g), any determination made by the Committee or by an
appropriately delegated officer pursuant to delegated authority under the provisions of the Plan with respect to any Award shall be made in the sole discretion of the Committee or such delegate at the time of the grant of the Award or, unless in
contravention of any express term of the Plan, at any time thereafter. All decisions made by the Committee or any appropriately delegated officer pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final and binding on all persons, including the
Company, Participants, and Eligible Individuals. 

  
 6 








 (d) Award Agreements. The terms and conditions of each Award (other than any
Bonus Award), as determined by the Committee, shall be set forth in an Award Agreement, which shall be delivered to the Participant receiving such Award upon, or as promptly as is reasonably practicable following, the grant of such Award. The
effectiveness of an Award shall not be subject to the Award Agreement’s being signed by the Company and/or the Participant receiving the Award unless specifically so provided in the Award Agreement. Award Agreements may be amended only in
accordance with Section 12 hereof. 
 SECTION 3. COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN 

(a) Plan Maximums. The maximum number of Shares that may be delivered pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall be the sum of
(i) the number of Shares that may be issuable upon exercise or vesting of the Adjusted Awards and (ii) 10,000,000. The maximum number of Shares that may be granted pursuant to Options intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be
7,000,000 Shares. Shares subject to an Award under the Plan may be authorized and unissued Shares or may be treasury Shares. 

(b) Individual Limits. During a calendar year, no single Participant may be granted: 

(i) Options covering in excess of 3,000,000 Shares; or 

(ii) Qualified Performance-Based Awards in the form of Restricted Stock Units or Restricted Stock covering in excess of

 provided, however, that Adjusted Awards shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in
this Section 3(b). 
 (c) Rules for Calculating Shares Delivered. 

(i) With respect to Awards other than Adjusted Awards, to the extent that any Award is forfeited, or any Option and the
related Tandem SAR (if any) or Free-Standing SAR terminates, expires or lapses without being exercised, or any Award is settled for cash, the Shares subject to such Awards not delivered as a result thereof shall again be available for Awards under
the Plan. 
 (ii) With respect to Awards other than Adjusted Awards, if the exercise price of any Option and/or
the tax withholding obligations relating to any Award are satisfied by delivering Shares to the Company (by either actual delivery or by attestation), only the number of Shares issued net of the Shares delivered or attested to shall be deemed
delivered for purposes of the limits set forth in Section 3(a). 
 (iii) With respect to Awards other than
Adjusted Awards, to the extent any Shares subject to an Award are withheld to satisfy the exercise price (in the case of an Option) and/or the tax withholding obligations relating to such Award, such Shares shall not be deemed to have been delivered
for purposes of the limits set forth in Section 3(a).

 (d) Adjustment Provisions. 

(i) In the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares, stock rights offering, liquidation,
Disaffiliation, or similar event affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Corporate Transaction”), the Committee or the Board may in its discretion make such substitutions or adjustments as it deems appropriate and
equitable to (A) the aggregate number and kind of Shares or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan, (B) the various maximum limitations set forth in Sections 3(a) and 3(b) upon certain types of Awards and upon
the grants to individuals of certain types of Awards, (C) the number and kind of Shares or other securities subject to outstanding Awards; and (D) the exercise price of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. 

(ii) In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, separation, spinoff, reorganization,
extraordinary dividend of cash or other property, share combination, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company (each, a “Share Change”), the Committee or the Board shall make such
substitutions or adjustments as it deems appropriate and equitable to (A) the aggregate number and kind of Shares or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan, (B) the various maximum limitations set forth in
Sections 3(a) and 3(b) upon certain types of Awards and upon the grants to individuals of certain types of Awards, (C) the number and kind of Shares or other securities subject to outstanding Awards; and (D) the exercise price of
outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. 
 (iii) In the case of Corporate Transactions, the
adjustments contemplated by clause (i) of this paragraph (d) may include, without limitation, (A) the cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange for payments of cash, property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value
equal to the value of such Awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion (it being understood that in the case of a Corporate Transaction with respect to which stockholders of Common Stock receive consideration other
than publicly traded equity securities of the ultimate surviving entity, any such determination by the Committee that the value of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall for this purpose be deemed to equal the excess, if any, of the value of
the consideration being paid for each Share pursuant to such Corporate Transaction over the exercise price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall conclusively be deemed valid); (B) the substitution of other property (including,
without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for the Shares subject to outstanding Awards; and (C) in connection with any Disaffiliation, arranging for the assumption of Awards,
or replacement of Awards with new awards based on other property or other securities (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company), by the affected Subsidiary, Affiliate, or
division or by the entity that controls such Subsidiary, Affiliate, or division following such Disaffiliation (as well as any corresponding adjustments to Awards that remain based upon Company securities). 

(iv) Any adjustment under this Section 3(d) need not be the same for all Participants. 

  
 8 








 (v) Any adjustments made pursuant to this Section 3(d) to Awards that
are considered “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Any adjustments made pursuant to this Section 3(d) to
Awards that are not considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made in such a manner as to ensure that after such adjustment, the Awards either (A) continue not to be subject to
Section 409A of the Code or (B) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. In any event, neither the Committee nor the Board shall have the authority to make any adjustments pursuant to this Section 3(d) to the
extent the existence of such authority would cause an Award that is not intended to be subject to Section 409A of the Code at the Grant Date to be subject thereto. 
 SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY 
 Awards may be granted under the Plan to Eligible
Individuals and, with respect to Adjusted Awards, in accordance with the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement; provided, however, that Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries or
parent corporation (within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code) and, with respect to Adjusted Awards that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 421 of the Code, in accordance with the terms
of the Employee Matters Agreement. 
 SECTION 5. OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 

With respect to Adjusted Awards, the provisions below will be applicable only to the extent that they are not inconsistent with the
Employee Matters Agreement and the terms of the applicable Adjusted Award assumed under the Employee Matters Agreement: 
 (a)
Types of Options. Options may be of two types: Incentive Stock Options and Nonqualified Options. The Award Agreement for an Option shall indicate whether the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Option.

 (b) Types and Nature of Stock Appreciation Rights. Stock Appreciation Rights may be “Tandem SARs,”
which are granted in conjunction with an Option, or “Free-Standing SARs,” which are not granted in conjunction with an Option. Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash,
Shares, or both, in value equal to the product of (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of one Share over the exercise price of the applicable Stock Appreciation Right, multiplied by (ii) the number of Shares in respect of which the
Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify whether such payment is to be made in cash or Common Stock or both, or shall reserve to the Committee or the Participant the right to make that determination
prior to or upon the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right. 
 (c) Tandem SARs. A Tandem SAR may be granted at
the Grant Date of the related Option. A Tandem SAR shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the related Option is exercisable in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5, and shall have the same exercise
price as the related Option. A Tandem SAR shall terminate or be forfeited 

  
 9 








 
upon the exercise or forfeiture of the related Option, and the related Option shall terminate or be forfeited upon the exercise or forfeiture of the Tandem SAR. 

(d) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to an Option or Free-Standing SAR shall be determined by the
Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on the applicable Grant Date. In no event may any Option or Free-Standing SAR granted under this Plan be
amended, other than pursuant to Section 3(d), to decrease the exercise price thereof, be cancelled in conjunction with the grant of any new Option or Free-Standing SAR with a lower exercise price or otherwise be subject to any action that would
be treated, for accounting purposes, as a “repricing” of such Option or Free-Standing SAR, unless such amendment, cancellation, or action is approved by the Company’s stockholders. 

(e) Term. The Term of each Option and each Free-Standing SAR shall be fixed by the Committee, but shall not exceed ten years
from the Grant Date in the case of an Incentive Stock Option. 
 (f) Vesting and Exercisability. Except as otherwise
provided herein, Options and Free-Standing SARs shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee. If the Committee provides that any Option or Free-Standing SAR will become
exercisable only in installments, the Committee may at any time waive such installment exercise provisions, in whole or in part, based on such factors as the Committee may determine. In addition, the Committee may at any time accelerate the
exercisability of any Option or Free-Standing SAR. 
 (g) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of this
Section 5, Options and Free-Standing SARs may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time during the applicable Term by giving written notice of exercise to the Company or through the procedures established with the Company’s appointed
third-party Option administrator specifying the number of Shares as to which the Option or Free-Standing SAR is being exercised; provided, however, that, unless otherwise permitted by the Committee, any such exercise must be with
respect to a portion of the applicable Option or Free-Standing SAR relating to no less than the lesser of the number of Shares then subject to such Option or Free-Standing SAR or 100 Shares. In the case of the exercise of an Option, such notice
shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price (which shall equal the product of such number of Shares multiplied by the applicable exercise price) by certified or bank check or such other instrument as the Company may accept. If
approved by the Committee, payment, in full or in part, may also be made as follows: 
 (i) Payments may be made
in the form of unrestricted Shares (by delivery of such Shares or by attestation) of the same class as the Common Stock subject to the Option already owned by the Participant (based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Option
is exercised); provided, however, that, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the right to make a payment in the form of already owned Shares of the same class as the Common Stock subject to the Option may be authorized only at the
time the Option is granted. 

  
 10 









 (ii) To the extent permitted by applicable law, payment may be made by
delivering a properly executed exercise notice to the Company, together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds necessary to pay the purchase price, and, if
requested, the amount of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes. To facilitate the foregoing, the Company may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter into agreements for coordinated procedures with one or more brokerage
firms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may also provide for Company loans to be made for purposes of the exercise of Options. 
 (iii) Payment may be made by instructing the Committee to withhold a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value (based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the applicable Option is
exercised) equal to the product of (A) the exercise price multiplied by (B) the number of Shares in respect of which the Option shall have been exercised. 
 (h) Delivery; Rights of Stockholders. No Shares shall be delivered pursuant to the exercise of an Option until the exercise price therefor has been fully paid and applicable taxes have been
withheld. The applicable Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company holding the class or series of Common Stock that is subject to the Option or Stock Appreciation Right (including, if applicable, the right to vote the
applicable Shares and the right to receive dividends), when the Participant (i) has given written notice of exercise, (ii) if requested, has given the representation described in Section 14(a), and (iii) in the case of an Option,
has paid in full for such Shares. 
 (i) Terminations of Employment. Subject to Section 10(c), a
Participant’s Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall be forfeited upon such Participant’s Termination of Employment, except as set forth below: 
 (i) Upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment by reason of death, any Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by the Participant that was exercisable immediately before the Termination of
Employment may be exercised at any time until the earlier of (A) the first anniversary of the date of such death and (B) the expiration of the Term thereof; 

(ii) Upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment by reason of Disability or Retirement, any Option or Stock
Appreciation Right held by the Participant that was exercisable immediately before the Termination of Employment may be exercised at any time until the earlier of (A) the first anniversary of such Termination of Employment and (B) the
expiration of the Term thereof; 
 (iii) Upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment for Cause, any
Option or Stock Appreciation Right held by the Participant shall be forfeited, effective as of such Termination of Employment; 
 (iv) Upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason other than death, Disability, Retirement or for Cause, any Option or Stock Appreciation Right


  
 11 









 
held by the Participant that was exercisable immediately before the Termination of Employment may be exercised at any time until the earlier of (A) the 90th day following such Termination of Employment and (B) expiration
of the Term thereof; and 
 (v) Notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 5(i), if a
Participant dies after such Participant’s Termination of Employment but while any Option or Stock Appreciation Right remains exercisable as set forth above, such Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised at any time until the later of
(A) the earlier of (1) the first anniversary of the date of such death and (2) expiration of the Term thereof and (B) the last date on which such Option or Stock Appreciation Right would have been exercisable, absent this
Section 5(i)(v). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall have the power, in its discretion, to apply different rules
concerning the consequences of a Termination of Employment; provided, however, that if such rules are less favorable to the Participant than those set forth above, such rules are set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. If an
Incentive Stock Option is exercised after the expiration of the exercise periods that apply for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, such Option will thereafter be treated as a Nonqualified Option. 

(j) Nontransferability of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. No Option or Free-Standing SAR shall be transferable by a
Participant other than (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or (ii) in the case of a Nonqualified Option or Free-Standing SAR, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or as otherwise expressly permitted by the
Committee including, if so permitted, pursuant to a transfer to the Participant’s family members or to a charitable organization, whether directly or indirectly or by means of a trust or partnership or otherwise. For purposes of this Plan,
unless otherwise determined by the Committee, “family member” shall have the meaning given to such term in General Instructions A.1(a)(5) to Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any successor thereto. A
Tandem SAR shall be transferable only with the related Option as permitted by the preceding sentence. Any Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable, subject to the terms of this Plan, only by the applicable Participant, the guardian or
legal representative of such Participant, or any person to whom such Option or Stock Appreciation Right is permissibly transferred pursuant to this Section 5(j), it being understood that the term “Participant” includes such guardian,
legal representative and other transferee; provided, however, that the term “Termination of Employment” shall continue to refer to the Termination of Employment of the original Participant. 

SECTION 6. RESTRICTED STOCK 
 With respect to Adjusted Awards, the provisions below will be applicable only to the extent that they are not inconsistent with the Employee Matters Agreement and the terms of the Adjusted Award assumed
under the Employee Matters Agreement: 
 (a) Nature of Awards and Certificates. Shares of Restricted Stock are actual
Shares issued to a Participant, and shall be evidenced in such manner as the Committee may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration or issuance of one or more stock certificates. Any certificate issued in respect of Shares of Restricted
Stock shall be registered in the name of the 

  
 12 









 
applicable Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award, substantially in the following form: 

“The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions
(including forfeiture) of the TripAdvisor, Inc. 2011 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan and an Award Agreement. Copies of such Plan and Agreement are on file at the offices of TripAdvisor, Inc.” 

The Committee may require that the certificates evidencing such shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed
and that, as a condition of any Award of Restricted Stock, the applicable Participant shall have delivered a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Common Stock covered by such Award. 

(b) Terms and Conditions. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(i) The Committee shall, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the vesting or transferability of an Award of
Restricted Stock upon the continued service of the applicable Participant or the attainment of Performance Goals, or the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the applicable Participant. In the event that the Committee
conditions the grant or vesting of an Award of Restricted Stock upon the attainment of Performance Goals or the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the applicable Participant, the Committee may, prior to or at the time of
grant, designate such an Award as a Qualified Performance-Based Award. The conditions for grant, vesting, or transferability and the other provisions of Restricted Stock Awards (including without limitation any Performance Goals) need not be the
same with respect to each Participant. 
 (ii) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award
Agreement, during the period, if any, set by the Committee, commencing with the date of such Restricted Stock Award for which such vesting restrictions apply and until the expiration of such vesting restrictions (the “RS Restriction
Period”), the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber Shares of Restricted Stock. 
 (iii) Except as provided in this Section 6 and in the applicable Award Agreement, the applicable Participant shall have, with respect to the Shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company holding the class or series of Common Stock that is the subject of the Restricted Stock, including, if applicable, the right to vote the Shares and the right to receive any cash dividends. If so determined by the Committee
in the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 14(e), (A) cash dividends on the class or series of Common Stock that is the subject of the Restricted Stock Award shall be automatically reinvested in additional Restricted Stock,
held subject to the vesting of the underlying Restricted Stock, and (B) subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 3(d), dividends payable in Common Stock shall be paid in 

  
 13 









 
the form of Restricted Stock of the same class as the Common Stock with which such dividend was paid, held subject to the vesting of the underlying Restricted Stock. 

(iv) Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 10(c), upon a
Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason during the RS Restriction Period or before the applicable Performance Goals are satisfied, all Shares of Restricted Stock still subject to restriction shall be forfeited by such
Participant; provided, however, that subject to Section 11(b), the Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all remaining restrictions with respect to any or all of such Participant’s Shares
of Restricted Stock. 
 (v) If and when any applicable Performance Goals are satisfied and the RS Restriction
Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Shares of Restricted Stock for which legended certificates have been issued, unlegended certificates for such Shares shall be delivered to the Participant upon surrender of the legended certificates.

 SECTION 7. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS 
 With respect to Adjusted Awards, the provisions below will be applicable only to the extent that they are not inconsistent with the Employee Matters Agreement and the terms of the Adjusted Award assumed
under the Employee Matters Agreement: 
 (a) Nature of Awards. Restricted Stock Units are Awards denominated in
Shares that will be settled, subject to the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Units, in an amount in cash, Shares or both, based upon the Fair Market Value of a specified number of Shares. 

(b) Terms and Conditions. Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(i) The Committee shall, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the grant, vesting, or transferability of Restricted
Stock Units upon the continued service of the applicable Participant or the attainment of Performance Goals, or the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the applicable Participant. In the event that the Committee conditions
the grant or vesting of Restricted Stock Units upon the attainment of Performance Goals or the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the applicable Participant, the Committee may, prior to or at the time of grant, designate
such Awards as Qualified Performance-Based Awards. The conditions for grant, vesting or transferability and the other provisions of Restricted Stock Units (including without limitation any Performance Goals) need not be the same with respect to each
Participant. 
 (ii) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, during the period,
if any, set by the Committee, commencing with the date of such Restricted Stock Units for which such vesting restrictions apply and until the expiration of such vesting restrictions (the “RSU Restriction Period”), the Participant
shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber Restricted Stock Units. 

  
 14 









 (iii) The Award Agreement for Restricted Stock Units shall specify whether,
to what extent and on what terms and conditions the applicable Participant shall be entitled to receive current or delayed payments of cash, Common Stock or other property corresponding to the dividends payable on the Common Stock (subject to
Section 14(e) below). 
 (iv) Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, upon a
Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason during the RSU Restriction Period or before the applicable Perofrmance Goals are satisfied, all Restricted Stock Units still subject to restriction shall be forfeited by such Participant;
provided, however, that subject to Section 11(b), the Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all remaining restrictions with respect to any or all of such Participant’s Restricted Stock
Units. 
 (v) Except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, an award of Restricted
Stock Units shall be settled as and when the Restricted Stock Units vest (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted Stock Units vest). 

SECTION 8. OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS 
 Other Awards of Common Stock and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based upon or settled in, Common Stock, including (without limitation), unrestricted
stock, performance units, dividend equivalents, and convertible debentures, may be granted under the Plan. 
 SECTION 9. BONUS AWARDS

 (a) Determination of Awards. The Committee shall determine the total amount of Bonus Awards for each Plan Year
or such shorter performance period as the Committee may establish in its sole discretion. Bonus amounts payable to any individual Participant with respect to a Plan Year will be limited to a maximum of $10 million. For performance periods that are
shorter than a Plan Year, such $10 million maximum may be pro-rated to the extent provided by the Committee. Bonus Awards that are Qualified Performance-Based Awards shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11 of this Plan.

 (b) Payment of Awards. Bonus Awards under the Plan shall be paid in cash or in Shares (valued
at Fair Market Value as of the date of payment) as determined by the Committee, as soon as practicable following the close of the Plan Year or such shorter performance period as the Committee may establish. It is intended that a Bonus Award will be
paid no later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the
third month following the later of: (i) the end of the Participant’s taxable year in which the requirements for such Bonus Award have been satisfied by the Participant or (ii) the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the
requirements for such Bonus Award have been satisfied by the Participant. The Committee may at its option establish procedures pursuant to which Participants are permitted to defer the receipt of Bonus Awards payable hereunder. The Bonus Award to
any Participant for any Plan Year or such shorter performance period may be reduced or eliminated by the Committee in its discretion. 

  
 15 









 SECTION 10. CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS 

(a) Impact of Event/Single Trigger. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, subject to
Sections 3(d), 3(e), 10(e) and 14(k), and with respect to Adjusted Awards only, to the extent specified in an Award Agreement or the applicable Expedia Long-Term Incentive Plan (it being understood that any reference to a “change in
control,” “change of control” or similar definition in an Award Agreement or the applicable Expedia Long Term Incentive Plan for any such Adjusted Award shall be deemed to refer to a “change in control,” “change of
control” or similar transaction with respect to the Company (as successor to the originally-referenced entity) for such Adjusted Award assumed hereunder), notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, immediately upon the
occurrence of a Change in Control, with respect to Awards (other than Bonus Awards) held by officers of the Company with a title of Senior Vice President of the Company or above as of immediately prior to the Change in Control, and with respect to
all other Participants solely to the extent provided in the applicable Award Agreement: 
 (i) any Options and
Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding which are not then exercisable and vested shall become fully exercisable and vested; 
 (ii) the restrictions applicable to any Restricted Stock shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable; 

(iii) all Restricted Stock Units shall be considered to be earned and payable in full, and any restrictions shall lapse
and such Restricted Stock Units shall be settled as promptly as is practicable in the form set forth in the applicable Award Agreement (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the end of the calendar year in which the
Restricted Stock Units vest). 
 (b) Definition of Change in Control. Except as otherwise may be provided in an
applicable Award Agreement, for purposes of the Plan, a “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following events: 
 (i) The acquisition by any individual entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act), other than Barry Diller, Liberty Media Corporation, and their
respective Affiliates (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of equity securities of the Company representing more than 50% of the voting power of the then
outstanding equity securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (i), the
following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (A) any acquisition by the Company, (B) any acquisition directly from the Company (C) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or
maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (D) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (iii); or 

  
 16 









 (ii) Individuals who, as of the Effective Date, constitute the Board (the
“Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Effective Date, whose election, or nomination for
election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for
this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or
consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or 
 (iii) Consummation of a reorganization,
merger or consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the purchase of assets or stock of another entity (a “Business Combination”), in each case, unless immediately
following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination will beneficially own,
directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the then outstanding combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or equivalent governing body, if applicable) of the entity
resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries)
in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities, (B) no Person (excluding Barry Diller, Liberty Media Corporation, and their respective
Affiliates, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such entity resulting from such Business Combination) will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding
voting securities of such entity except to the extent that such ownership of the Company existed prior to the Business Combination and (C) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors (or equivalent governing body, if
applicable) of the entity resulting from such Business Combination will have been members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the initial agreement, or action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination; or 

(iv) Approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Separation shall not constitute a Change in Control. 

(c) Impact of Event/Double Trigger. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, subject to
Sections 3(d), 3(e), 10(e) and 14(k), and with respect to Adjusted Awards only, to the extent specified in an Award Agreement, notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, upon a Participant’s Termination of
Employment, during the two-year period following a Change in Control, by the Company other than for Cause or Disability or by the Participant for Good Reason (as defined below): 

  
 17 









 (i) any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of such
Termination of Employment which were outstanding as of the date of such Change in Control (including any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that became vested pursuant to Section 10(a)) shall be fully exercisable and vested and shall remain
exercisable until the later of (i) the last date on which such Option or Stock Appreciation Right would be exercisable in the absence of this Section 10(c) and (ii) the earlier of (A) the first anniversary of such Change in
Control and (B) expiration of the Term of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right; 
 (ii) all Restricted
Stock outstanding as of such Termination of Employment which were outstanding as of the date of such Change in Control shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable; and 

(iii) all Restricted Stock Units outstanding as of such Termination of Employment which were outstanding as of the date of
such Change in Control shall be considered to be earned and payable in full, and any restrictions shall lapse and such Restricted Stock Units shall be settled as promptly as is practicable (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar
year following the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted Stock Units vest) in the form set forth in the applicable Award Agreement (subject to Section 3(d)) . 
 (d) For purposes of this Section 10, “Good Reason” means (i) “Good Reason” as defined in any Individual Agreement or Award Agreement to which the applicable
Participant is a party, or (ii) if there is no such Individual Agreement or if it does not define Good Reason, without the Participant’s prior written consent: (A) a material reduction in the Participant’s rate of annual base
salary from the rate of annual base salary in effect for such Participant immediately prior to the Change in Control, (B) a relocation of the Participant’s principal place of business more than 35 miles from the city in which such
Participant’s principal place of business was located immediately prior to the Change in Control or (C) a material and demonstrable adverse change in the nature and scope of the Participant’s duties from those in effect immediately
prior to the Change in Control. In order to invoke a Termination of Employment for Good Reason, a Participant shall provide written notice to the Company of the existence of one or more of the conditions described in clauses (A) through
(C) within 90 days following the Participant’s knowledge of the initial existence of such condition or conditions, and the Company shall have 30 days following receipt of such written notice (the “Cure Period”)
during which it may remedy the condition. In the event that the Company fails to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason during the Cure Period, the Participant must terminate employment, if at all, within 90 days following the Cure
Period in order for such Termination of Employment to constitute a Termination of Employment for Good Reason. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Section 10 shall be applicable only to the extent specifically provided in the Award Agreement or in the Individual Agreement. 

  
 18 









 SECTION 11. QUALIFIED PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS; SECTION 16(b) 

(a) The provisions of this Plan are intended to ensure that all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted hereunder to any Participant
who is or may be a “covered employee” (within the meaning of Section 162(m)(3) of the Code) in the tax year in which such Option or Stock Appreciation Right is expected to be deductible to the Company qualify for the
Section 162(m) Exemption, and all such Awards shall therefore be considered Qualified Performance-Based Awards and this Plan shall be interpreted and operated consistent with that intention (including, without limitation, to require that all
such Awards be granted by a committee composed solely of members who satisfy the requirements for being “outside directors” for purposes of the Section 162(m) Exemption (“Outside Directors”)). When granting any Award
other than an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the Committee may designate such Award as a Qualified Performance-Based Award, based upon a determination that (i) the recipient is or may be a “covered employee” (within the meaning
of Section 162(m)(3) of the Code) with respect to such Award, and (ii) the Committee wishes such Award to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption, and the terms of any such Award (and of the grant thereof) shall be consistent with
such designation (including, without limitation, that all such Awards be granted by a committee composed solely of Outside Directors). 
 (b) Each Qualified Performance-Based Award (other than an Option or Stock Appreciation Right) shall be earned, vested and payable (as applicable) only upon the achievement of one or more Performance
Goals, together with the satisfaction of any other conditions, such as continued employment, as the Committee may determine to be appropriate, and no Qualified Performance-Based Award may be amended, nor may the Committee exercise any discretionary
authority it may otherwise have under this Plan with respect to a Qualified Performance-Based Award under this Plan, in any manner that would cause the Qualified Performance-Based Award to cease to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption;
provided, however, that (i) the Committee may provide, either in connection with the grant of the applicable Award or by amendment thereafter, that achievement of such Performance Goals will be waived upon the death or Disability
of the Participant or under any other circumstance with respect to which the existence of such possible waiver will not cause the Award to fail to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption as of the Grant Date, and (ii) the provisions of
Section 10 shall apply notwithstanding this Section 11(b). 
 (c) The full Board shall not be permitted to exercise
authority granted to the Committee to the extent that the grant or exercise of such authority would cause an Award designated as a Qualified Performance-Based Award not to qualify for, or to cease to qualify for, the Section 162(m) Exemption.

 (d) The provisions of this Plan are intended to ensure that no transaction under the Plan is subject to (and all such
transactions will be exempt from) the short-swing recovery rules of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (“Section 16(b)”). Accordingly, the composition of the Committee shall be subject to such limitations as the Board deems
appropriate to permit transactions pursuant to this Plan to be exempt (pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) from Section 16(b), and no delegation of authority by the Committee shall be permitted if such delegation
would cause any such transaction to be subject to (and not exempt from) Section 16(b). 

  
 19 









 SECTION 12. TERM, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 

(a) Effectiveness. The Plan shall be effective as of the date (the “Effective Date”) it is adopted by the
Board, provided that it has been approved or is thereafter approved by the sole stockholder of the Company in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and stock exchange rules and listing standards. 

(b) Termination. The Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Awards outstanding as of such date
shall not be affected or impaired by the termination of the Plan. 
 (c) Amendment of Plan. The Board may amend,
alter, or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would materially impair the rights of the Participant with respect to a previously granted Award without such Participant’s consent, except such
an amendment made to comply with applicable law (including without limitation Section 409A of the Code), stock exchange rules or accounting rules. In addition, no such amendment shall be made without the approval of the Company’s
stockholders to the extent such approval is required by applicable law or the listing standards of the Applicable Exchange. 

(d) Amendment of Awards. Subject to Section 5(d), the Committee may unilaterally amend the terms of any Award
theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment shall (i) cause a Qualified Performance-Based Award to cease to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption or (ii) without the Participant’s consent,
materially impair the rights of any Participant with respect to an Award, except such an amendment made to cause the Plan or Award to comply with applicable law, stock exchange rules or accounting rules. 

SECTION 13. UNFUNDED STATUS OF PLAN 
 It is presently intended that the Plan constitute an “unfunded” plan. Solely to the extent permitted under Section 409A, the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or other
arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Common Stock or make payments; provided, however, that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the “unfunded” status of the
Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, with respect to any Award that constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, no trust shall be funded
with respect to any such Award if such funding would result in taxable income to the Participant by reason of Section 409A(b) of the Code and in no event shall any such trust assets at any time be located or transferred outside of the United
States, within the meaning of Section 409A(b) of the Code. 
 SECTION 14. GENERAL PROVISIONS 

(a) Conditions for Issuance. The Committee may require each person purchasing or receiving Shares pursuant to an Award to
represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such person is acquiring the Shares without a view to the distribution thereof. The certificates for such Shares may include any legend which the Committee deems appropriate to reflect any
restrictions on transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or agreements made pursuant thereto, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any 

  
 20 









 
certificate or certificates for Shares under the Plan prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: (i) listing or approval for listing upon notice of issuance, of such Shares on
the Applicable Exchange; (ii) any registration or other qualification of such Shares of the Company under any state or federal law or regulation, or the maintaining in effect of any such registration or other qualification which the Committee
shall, in its absolute discretion upon the advice of counsel, deem necessary or advisable; and (iii) obtaining any other consent, approval, or permit from any state or federal governmental agency which the Committee shall, in its absolute
discretion after receiving the advice of counsel, determine to be necessary or advisable. 
 (b) Additional Compensation
Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements for its employees. 

(c) No Contract of Employment. The Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment, and adoption of the Plan shall not
confer upon any employee any right to continued employment, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to terminate the employment of any employee at any time. 

(d) Required Taxes. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of a
Participant for federal, state, local or foreign income or employment or other tax purposes with respect to any Award under the Plan, such Participant shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment
of, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount. If determined by the Company, withholding obligations may be settled with Common Stock, including Common Stock that is part of the
Award that gives rise to the withholding requirement. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company and its Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to
deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to such Participant. The Committee may establish such procedures as it deems appropriate, including making irrevocable elections, for the settlement of withholding obligations with Common Stock.

 (e) Limitation on Dividend Reinvestment and Dividend Equivalents. Reinvestment of dividends in additional Restricted
Stock at the time of any dividend payment, and the payment of Shares with respect to dividends to Participants holding Awards of Restricted Stock Units, shall only be permissible if sufficient Shares are available under Section 3 for such
reinvestment or payment (taking into account then outstanding Awards). In the event that sufficient Shares are not available for such reinvestment or payment, such reinvestment or payment shall be made in the form of a grant of Restricted Stock
Units equal in number to the Shares that would have been obtained by such payment or reinvestment, the terms of which Restricted Stock Units shall provide for settlement in cash and for dividend equivalent reinvestment in further Restricted Stock
Units on the terms contemplated by this Section 14(e). 
 (f) Designation of Death Beneficiary. The Committee
shall establish such procedures as it deems appropriate for a Participant to designate a beneficiary to whom any amounts payable in the event of such Participant’s death are to be paid or by whom any rights of such eligible Individual, after
such Participant’s death, may be exercised. 

  
 21 









 (g) Subsidiary Employees. In the case of a grant of an Award to any employee of
a Subsidiary of the Company, the Company may, if the Committee so directs, issue or transfer the Shares, if any, covered by the Award to the Subsidiary, for such lawful consideration as the Committee may specify, upon the condition or understanding
that the Subsidiary will transfer the Shares to the employee in accordance with the terms of the Award specified by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. All Shares underlying Awards that are forfeited or canceled should revert to
the Company. 
 (h) Governing Law and Interpretation. The Plan and all Awards made and actions taken thereunder
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. The captions of this Plan are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect.

 (i) Non-Transferability. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5(j) or by the Committee, Awards under the
Plan are not transferable except by will or by laws of descent and distribution. 
 (j) Foreign Employees and Foreign Law
Considerations. The Committee may grant Awards to Eligible Individuals who are foreign nationals, who are located outside the United States or who are not compensated from a payroll maintained in the United States, or who are otherwise
subject to (or could cause the Company to be subject to) legal or regulatory provisions of countries or jurisdictions outside the United States, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the
Committee, be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan, and, in furtherance of such purposes, the Committee may make such modifications, amendments, procedures, or subplans as may be necessary or advisable
to comply with such legal or regulatory provisions. 
 (k) Section 409A of the Code. It is the intention of the
Company that no Award shall be “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, unless and to the extent that the Committee specifically determines otherwise as provided in this Section 14(k), and the Plan and the
terms and conditions of all Awards shall be interpreted accordingly. The terms and conditions governing any Awards that the Committee determines will be subject to Section 409A of the Code, including any rules for elective or mandatory deferral
of the delivery of cash or Shares pursuant thereto and any rules regarding treatment of such Awards in the event of a Change in Control, shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and shall comply in all respects with Section 409A of
the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, with respect to any Award that constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” subject to Section 409A of the Code, if the Participant is a
“specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, any payments (whether in cash, Shares or other property) to be made with respect to the Award upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment shall be delayed
until the earlier of (A) the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s Termination of Employment and (B) the Participant’s death. Each payment under any Award shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes
of Section 409A of the Code. In no event may a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payemnt to be made under any Award. 

  
 22 









 (l) Employee Matters Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the
contrary, to the extent that the terms of this Plan are inconsistent with the terms of an Adjusted Award, the terms of the Adjusted Award shall be governed by the Employee Matters Agreement, the applicable Expedia Long-Term Incentive Plan and the
award agreement granted thereunder. 

  
 23
