PROCEDURAL MATTERS

This Proxy Statement is being furnished to holders of common stock and Class B common stock of Expedia, Inc., a Delaware corporation, in connection with the solicitation of proxies by Expedia’s Board of Directors for use at its 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Expedia’s principal offices are located at 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card are being mailed to Expedia stockholders on or about August 23, 2016.

Date, Time and Place of Meeting

The Annual Meeting will be held on Wednesday, September 14, 2016, at 11:00 a.m. local time at 555 West 18^th Street, New York, New York 10011.

Only stockholders and persons holding proxies from stockholders may attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares are registered in your name, you must bring a form of photo identification to the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in the name of a broker, trust, bank or other nominee, otherwise known as holding in “street name,” you must bring a proxy or letter from that broker, trust, bank or other nominee that confirms you are the beneficial owner of those shares, together with a form of photo identification. Use of cameras and recording devices will not be permitted at the Annual Meeting.

Record Date

The Board of Directors established the close of business on August 9, 2016 as the record date for determining the holders of Expedia stock entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the record date, 137,085,089 shares of common stock and 12,799,999 shares of Class B common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Quorum

Transaction of business at the Annual Meeting may occur if a quorum is present. If a quorum is not present, it is expected that the Annual Meeting will be adjourned or postponed in order to permit additional time for soliciting and obtaining additional proxies or votes, and, at any subsequent reconvening of the Annual Meeting, all previously submitted proxies will be voted in the same manner as such proxies would have been voted at the original convening of the Annual Meeting, except for any proxies that have been effectively revoked or withdrawn.

The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the total votes entitled to be cast by holders of Expedia common stock and Class B common stock at the 2016 Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum. In the election of the four directors whom the holders of Expedia common stock are entitled to elect as a separate class, the presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of votes of the outstanding common stock constitutes a quorum. If a share is represented for any purpose at the meeting, it is deemed to be present for quorum purposes and for all other matters as well. Shares of Expedia stock represented by a properly executed proxy will be treated as present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum, without regard to whether the proxy is marked as casting a vote or abstaining.

Voting Rights

Expedia stockholders are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock and ten votes for each share of Class B common stock held as of the record date, voting together as a single voting group, in:

•

the election of nine of the thirteen director nominees;

•

the approval of the Fourth Amended and Restated Expedia, Inc. 2005 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan (the “Amended 2005 Plan”); and

-1-

•

the ratification of the appointment of Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm.

Expedia stockholders are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held as of the record date in the election of the four director nominees that the holders of Expedia common stock are entitled to elect as a separate class pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

Barry Diller, the Chairman and Senior Executive of Expedia, generally controls the vote of shares that he owns as well as, pursuant to an irrevocable proxy, those shares beneficially owned by Liberty Interactive Corporation (“Liberty Interactive”) and its subsidiaries. Based on information filed on a Schedule 13D/A by Mr. Diller and Liberty Interactive on March 29, 2016, and a Form 4 filed by Mr. Diller on March 3, 2016, Mr. Diller and Liberty Interactive together beneficially own approximately 12% of the outstanding shares of common stock (or 20% assuming exercise of Mr. Diller’s vested stock options and conversion of all shares of Class B common stock into shares of common stock) and 100% of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock and, consequently, approximately 54% of the combined voting power of the outstanding Expedia capital stock as of the record date. As a result, regardless of the vote of any other Expedia stockholder, Mr. Diller has control over the vote relating to the election of nine of the thirteen director nominees, the approval of the amendments to the Amended 2005 Plan, and the ratification of the appointment of Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm.

In the fall of 2015, Liberty Interactive announced a plan to spin-off to certain of its stockholders all of the shares of Liberty Interactive’s wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Expedia Holdings, Inc. whose assets at the time of the spin-off would include all of Liberty Interactive’s interest in Expedia. A description of the proposed spin-off and related arrangements is included in the section below titled “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions— Relationships Involving Significant Stockholders, Named Executive Officers and Directors—Relationships Involving Mr. Diller”.

Solicitation of Proxies

Expedia will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies from its stockholders. In addition to solicitation by mail, the directors, officers and employees of Expedia, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies from stockholders by telephone, by letter, by facsimile, in person or otherwise. Following the original mailing of the proxies and other soliciting materials, Expedia will request brokers, trusts, banks or other nominees to forward copies of the proxy and other soliciting materials to persons for whom they hold shares of Expedia capital stock and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, Expedia, upon the request of the brokers, trusts, banks and other stockholder nominees, will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses.

Voting by Proxy

You may direct how your shares are voted by proxy, without attending the Annual Meeting. The manner in which your shares may be voted by proxy depends on whether you are a:

•

Registered stockholder: your shares are represented by certificates or book entries in your name on the records of the Company’s stock transfer agent;

•

401(k) plan participant: your shares are held in Expedia’s 401(k) plan for employees; or

•

Beneficial stockholder: you hold your shares “in street name” through a broker, trust, bank or other nominee.

You may vote your shares by proxy in any of the following three ways:

•

Using the Internet. Registered stockholders and 401(k) plan participants may vote using the internet by going to www.Proxyvote.com and following the instructions. Beneficial stockholders may vote by

-2-

accessing the website specified on the voting instruction forms provided by their brokers, trusts, banks or other nominees. You will be required to enter the control number that is included on your proxy card or other voting instruction form provided by your broker, trust, bank or other nominee.

•

By Telephone. Registered stockholders and 401(k) plan participants may vote, from within the United States, using any touch-tone telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903 and following the recorded instructions. Beneficial owners may vote, from within the United States, using any touch-tone telephone by calling the number specified on the voting instruction forms provided by their brokers, trusts, banks or other nominees. You will be required to enter the control number that is included on your proxy card or other voting instruction form provided by your broker, trust, bank or other nominee.

•

By Mail. Registered stockholders and 401(k) plan participants may submit proxies by mail by requesting printed proxy cards and marking, signing and dating the printed proxy cards and mailing them in the accompanying pre-addressed envelopes. Beneficial owners may vote by marking, signing and dating the voting instruction forms provided and mailing them in the accompanying pre-addressed envelopes.

All proxies properly submitted and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions indicated thereon. If you are a stockholder of record and submit your proxy voting instructions but do not direct how to vote on each item, the persons named as proxies will vote as the Board recommends on each of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

Expedia is incorporated under Delaware law, which specifically permits electronically transmitted proxies, provided that each such proxy contains, or is submitted with, information from which the inspector of elections can determine that such proxy was authorized by the stockholder (Delaware General Corporation Law section 212(c)). The electronic voting procedures provided for the Annual Meeting are designed to authenticate each stockholder by use of a control number, to allow stockholders to vote their shares, and to confirm that their instructions have been properly recorded.

Voting in Person at the Annual Meeting

You may also vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Votes in person will replace any previous votes you have made by mail, telephone or the internet. We will provide a ballot to registered stockholders who request one at the meeting. Shares held in your name as the stockholder of record may be voted on that ballot. Shares held beneficially in street name may be voted on a ballot only if you bring a legal proxy from the broker, trust, bank or other nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares. Attendance at the Annual Meeting without voting or revoking a previous proxy in accordance with the voting procedures will not in and of itself revoke a proxy.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Abstentions are treated as shares present and entitled to vote and, as a result, have the same effect as a vote against any proposal for which the voting standard is based on the number of shares present at the Annual Meeting (the auditor ratification proposal) and have no impact on the vote on any proposal for which the vote standard is based on the votes cast at the meeting (the election of directors and approval of the Amended 2005 Plan).

Broker non-votes are not treated as shares entitled to vote and, as a result, have no effect on the outcome of any of the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the Annual Meeting; provided, however, that brokers have discretionary authority to vote on the auditor ratification proposal. If you hold Expedia shares in street name or in Expedia’s 401(k) Plan, you must provide your broker, bank or other holder of record with instructions in order to vote these shares. If you do not provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee, whether your shares can be voted by such person depends on the type of item being considered for a vote.

-3-

Non-Discretionary Items. The election of directors and the approval of the Amended 2005 Plan are non- discretionary items and may NOT be voted on by your broker, bank or other nominee absent specific voting instructions from you.

Discretionary Items. The ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2016 is a discretionary item. Generally, brokers, banks and other nominees that do not receive voting instructions may vote on this proposal in their discretion.

The trustee of Expedia’s 401(k) plan for employees, Fidelity Management Trust Company, will vote Expedia common stock credited to employee accounts in accordance with such employees’ voting instructions. The trustee will vote the 401(k) plan stock for which voting instructions are not received in the same proportion as the shares for which voting instructions are received.

Revocation of Proxies

If you are a beneficial stockholder, you may revoke your proxy or change your vote only by following the separate instructions provided by your broker, trust, bank or other nominee.

If you are a registered stockholder, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised at the Annual Meeting by (i) delivering written notice, bearing a date later than the proxy, stating that the proxy is revoked, or (ii) submitting a later-dated proxy relating to the same stock by mail, telephone or the internet prior to the vote at the Annual Meeting, or (iii) attending the Annual Meeting and properly giving notice of revocation to the inspector of election or voting in person. Registered stockholders may also follow the instructions provided on your proxy card to submit a new proxy by telephone or via the internet.

Other Business

The Board of Directors does not presently intend to bring any business before the Annual Meeting other than the proposals discussed in this Proxy Statement and specified in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board has no knowledge of any other matters to be presented at the Annual Meeting other than those described in this Proxy Statement. If any other matters should properly come before the Annual Meeting, the persons designated in the proxy will vote on them according to their best judgment.

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please take the time to vote via the internet, by telephone or by returning your marked, signed and dated proxy card so that your shares will be represented at the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSAL 1:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nominees

At the Annual Meeting, a board of thirteen directors will be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors shall have been duly elected and qualified (or, if earlier, any director’s removal or resignation from the Board of Directors). The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the holders of the Company’s common stock, acting as a single class, are entitled to elect a number of directors equal to 25% percent of the total number of directors, rounded up to the next whole number of directors, which is currently four directors. The Board has designated Ms. Athey and Messrs. Battle, Jacobson and Kern as nominees for the positions on the Board to be elected by the holders of Expedia common stock voting as a separate class. Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Governance Agreement among Expedia, Liberty Interactive and Mr. Diller dated December 20, 2011 (the “Governance Agreement”), Liberty Interactive has the right to nominate up to a number of directors equal to 20% of the total number of the directors on the Board (rounded up to the next whole number if the number of directors on the Board is not an even multiple of five) for election to the Board and has certain other rights regarding committee participation, so long as certain stock ownership requirements applicable to Liberty Interactive are satisfied. Liberty Interactive has designated Ms. Coe, Dr. Malone, and Mr. Shean as its nominees to the Board. Although management does not anticipate that any of the nominees named below will be unable or unwilling to stand for election, in the event of such an occurrence, proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board.

The name and certain background information regarding each nominee, as of August 1, 2016, are set forth below. Except as noted, there are no family relationships among directors or executive officers of Expedia. In addition to the information presented below regarding each nominee’s specific experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led the Board of Directors to the conclusion that he or she should be nominated as a director, each nominee has demonstrated business acumen and an ability to exercise sound judgment, as well as a commitment to Expedia and our Board as demonstrated by the nominee’s past service. Several of our director-nominees also have extensive management experience in complex organizations. The Board considered the NASDAQ requirement that the Company’s Audit Committee be composed of at least three independent directors, as well as specific NASDAQ and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements regarding financial literacy and expertise.

Board of Directors

Controlled Company Status. Expedia is subject to the NASDAQ Stock Market Listing Rules. These rules exempt “controlled companies,” or companies of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, a group or another company, such as Expedia, from certain requirements.

Pursuant to an amended and restated stockholders agreement dated December 20, 2011 (the “Stockholders Agreement”), by and between Liberty Interactive and Mr. Diller, Mr. Diller generally controls the vote of shares that he owns as well as those shares beneficially owned by Liberty Interactive. Based on information filed by Mr. Diller and Liberty Interactive and certain of their affiliates on a Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D/A, filed on March 29, 2016, and a Form 4 filed by Mr. Diller on March 3, 2016, Mr. Diller and Liberty Interactive together beneficially own, as of the record date, approximately 12% of the outstanding common stock (or 20% assuming exercise of Mr. Diller’s vested stock options and conversion of all shares of Class B common stock into shares of common stock) and 100% of the outstanding Class B common stock and, consequently, approximately 54% of the combined voting power of the outstanding Expedia capital stock. On this basis, Expedia is relying on the exemption for controlled companies from certain NASDAQ requirements,

-10-

including, among others, the requirement that a majority of the Board of Directors be composed of independent directors, the requirement that the Compensation Committee be composed solely of independent directors and certain requirements relating to the nomination of directors.

Director Independence. The Board of Directors has determined that each of Ms. Athey, and Messrs. Battle, Dolgen, Jacobson, Kern and Rudin is an “independent director” as defined by the NASDAQ listing rules. In making its independence determinations, the Board considered the applicable legal standards and any relevant transactions, relationships or arrangements, including nominal compensation paid to Ms. Athey for consulting services prior to her appointment to the Board, legal services provided to a subsidiary of IAC by the law firm in which Mr. Jacobson is a partner, and Mr. Rudin’s past business arrangements with subsidiaries of IAC and his service as vice chair of a non-profit organization for which Mr. Diller is the chairman.

The Board. The Board of Directors met five times in 2015. For 2015, each director attended more than 75% of the meetings of the Board and the Board committees on which they served. The independent directors meet in regularly scheduled sessions, typically before or after each Board meeting, without the presence of management. Directors are encouraged, but not required to attend annual meetings of Expedia stockholders. Nine of the then ten member Board of Directors attended the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Board Leadership Structure. Mr. Diller serves as the Chairman and also serves as Senior Executive of the Company, and Mr. Khosrowshahi serves as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board are currently separated in recognition of the differences between the two roles. We believe that it is in the best interests of our stockholders for the Board to make a determination regarding the separation or combination of these roles each time it elects a new Chairman or appoints a Chief Executive Officer, based on the relevant facts and circumstances applicable at such time. Independent members of the Board chair our Audit, Compensation and Section 16 Committees. Expedia has had the current leadership structure since the completion of its spin-off from IAC in 2005.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight. As part of its general oversight duties, the Board of Directors oversees the Company’s risk management. The Chief Executive Officer, General Counsel and Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Operations and attend quarterly Board meetings and discuss operational risks with the Board. Management also provides quarterly reports and presentations on strategic risks to the Board. Between quarterly meetings, the General Counsel and Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Operations meet regularly with the Executive Committee, and the members are informed of any immediate risks at such meetings.

In addition, the Audit Committee is responsible for discussing with management the Company’s major financial risks and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such risks, including the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies. The Audit Committee also has oversight responsibility for the Company’s foreign exchange risk management policy and investment management policy. In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Audit Committee receives regular reports from the Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Operations, General Counsel, Vice President of Internal Audit, Treasurer, President of eCommerce Platform (having responsibility for technology infrastructure and security) and Chief Accounting Officer. The Vice President of Internal Audit reports directly to the Audit Committee and provides quarterly (or more frequent) reports on the results of internal audits and investigations. The Chairman of the Audit Committee makes regular reports to the Board.

Board Committees

The Board of Directors has the following standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Section 16 Committee and the Executive Committee. The Audit, Compensation and Section 16 Committees operate under written charters adopted by the Board of Directors. These charters are available on the

Audit Committee. Each current Audit Committee member satisfies the independence requirements for Audit Committee members under the current standards imposed by the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Battle and Kern is an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined in the regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

The Audit Committee functions pursuant to a written charter adopted by the Board, pursuant to which the Audit Committee is granted the responsibilities and authority necessary to comply with Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board to assist the Board with a variety of matters discussed in detail in the charter, including monitoring: (i) the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting process, (ii) the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, (iii) the performance of Company’s internal audit function and the independent registered public accounting firm, and (iv) the Company’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

The formal report of the Audit Committee with respect to the year ended December 31, 2015, is set forth under the heading “Audit Committee Report” below.

Compensation Committee. With the exception of Ms. Coe, each member satisfies the independence requirements for Compensation Committee members under the current standards imposed by the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ. No member of the Compensation Committee is an employee of Expedia. The Compensation Committee is responsible for (i) administering and overseeing the Company’s executive compensation program, including salary matters, bonus plans and stock compensation plans, and (ii) approving all grants of equity awards, but excluding matters governed by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act (see section below titled “Section 16 Committee”). A description of the Company’s processes and procedures for the consideration and determination of executive compensation is included in the section below titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”

-12-

Section 16 Committee. Each member of the Section 16 Committee is an “independent director” as defined by the NASDAQ listing rules and satisfies the definition of “non-employee director” for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The Section 16 Committee is authorized to exercise all powers of the Board of Directors with respect to matters governed by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, including approving grants of equity awards to Expedia’s executive officers.

Compensation Consultant Independence. During 2015, management retained Compensia, Inc., a compensation consulting firm, to conduct a review of Expedia’s compensation peer groups, and to compile data from proxy statements and other SEC filings of peer companies regarding compensation for certain executive officer positions. Compensia also advised the Compensation Committees with regard to the long-term equity awards granted to Mr. Khosrowshahi in connection with his entry into a new long-term employment agreement in the first quarter of 2015 as discussed further below in the section titled “Compensation Program Elements —Equity Compensation—Additional 2015 Equity Awards to Mr. Khosrowshahi.” The Compensation Committee considered various factors bearing upon Compensia’s independence including, but not limited to, the amount of fees received by Compensia from Expedia as a percentage of Compensia’s total revenue, Compensia’s policies and procedures designed to prevent conflicts of interest, and the existence of any business or personal relationship that could impact Compensia’s independence. After reviewing these and other factors, the Committee determined that Compensia was independent and that its engagement did not present any conflicts of interest.

Compensation Policies and Practices Risk Assessment. Consistent with SEC disclosure requirements, management has assessed compensation policies and practices for Company employees and has concluded that such policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Executive Committee. The Executive Committee has all the power and authority of the Board of Directors, except those powers specifically reserved to the Board by Delaware law.

Director Nominations

Given the ownership structure of the Company and its status as a “controlled company,” the Board of Directors does not have a nominating committee or other committee performing similar functions or any formal policy on director nominations. Pursuant to the Governance Agreement, Liberty Interactive has the right to nominate a number of directors equal to 20% of the total number of the directors on the Board of Directors (rounded up to the next whole number if the number of directors on the Board is not an even multiple of five) for election to the Board so long as certain stock ownership requirements are satisfied. The Board does not have specific requirements for eligibility to serve as a director of Expedia, nor does it have a specific policy on diversity. However, in evaluating candidates, regardless of how recommended, the Board considers whether the professional and personal ethics and values of the candidate are consistent with those of Expedia, whether the candidate’s experience and expertise would be beneficial to the Board in rendering service to Expedia, including in providing a mix of Board members that represent a diversity of backgrounds, perspectives and opinions, whether the candidate is willing and able to devote the necessary time and energy to the work of the Board, and whether the candidate is prepared and qualified to represent the best interests of Expedia’s stockholders. Given the controlled status of Expedia, the Board believes the process described above is appropriate. Liberty Interactive has nominated Ms. Coe, Dr. Malone, and Mr. Shean as nominees for 2016. The other nominees to the Board were recommended by the Chairman and then were considered and recommended by the entire Board.

The Board of Directors does not have a formal policy regarding the consideration of director candidates recommended by stockholders, as historically Expedia has not received such recommendations. However, the Board would consider such recommendations if made in the future. Stockholders who wish to make such a recommendation should send the recommendation to Expedia, Inc., 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004, Attention: Secretary. The envelope must contain a clear notation that the enclosed letter is a

-13-

“Director Nominee Recommendation.” The letter must identify the author as a stockholder, provide a brief summary of the candidate’s qualifications and history and be accompanied by evidence of the sender’s stockownership, as well as consent by the candidate to serve as a director if elected. Any director candidate recommendations will be reviewed by the Secretary and, if deemed appropriate, forwarded to the Chairman for further review. If the Chairman believes that the candidate fits the profile of a director nominee as described above, the recommendation will be shared with the entire Board.

Communications with the Board

Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board of Directors or a particular director may send such communication to Expedia, Inc., 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004, Attention: Secretary. The mailing envelope must contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a “Stockholder-Board Communication” or “Stockholder-Director Communication.” All such letters must identify the author as a stockholder, provide evidence of the sender’s stock ownership and clearly state whether the intended recipients are all members of the Board or just certain specified directors. The Secretary will then review such correspondence and forward it to the Board, or to the specified director(s), if deemed appropriate. Communications that are primarily commercial in nature, that are not relevant to stockholders or other interested constituents or that relate to improper or irrelevant topics will generally not be forwarded to the Board or to the specified director(s).

Compensation of Directors

The Board of Directors sets director compensation, which is designed to provide competitive compensation necessary to attract and retain high quality directors and to encourage ownership of Company stock to further align directors’ interests with those of our stockholders.

During 2015, Expedia employees did not receive compensation for services as directors, and Liberty Interactive nominees have historically agreed that they would not receive compensation for their Expedia Board service, including for 2015. During 2015, each non-employee director of Expedia, other than Liberty Interactive nominees, received the following compensation:

•

an annual retainer of $45,000, paid in equal quarterly installments;

•

a grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with a value of $250,000 (based on the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market on the day prior to the grant), upon such director’s initial election to office and annually thereafter on June 1, such RSUs to vest in three equal installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and such RSUs to be entitled to dividends declared and paid on the underlying shares of common stock during the vesting period. In the event of a change in control (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Expedia, Inc. 2005 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan (the “Expedia 2005 Plan”) and described in the section below titled “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control”), the RSUs shall vest automatically in full;

•

an annual retainer of $20,000 for each member of the Audit Committee (including the Chairman) and $15,000 for each member of the Compensation Committee (including the Chairman); and

•

an additional annual retainer of $10,000 for the Chairman of the Audit Committee and $10,000 for the each of the Co-Chairs of the Compensation Committee.

Members of the Section 16 Committee do not receive additional compensation for service on that committee. Expedia reimburses directors for all reasonable expenses incurred to attend Board and committee meetings.

On January 22, 2016, the Board of Directors approved a revised compensation program for directors, pursuant to which Liberty Interactive nominees and Mr. Kaufman are entitled to receive compensation for

-14-

Expedia board service as outlined above, with effect as of January 1, 2016. In connection with the director compensation program revisions, Mr. Kaufman agreed to forego compensation for his service as an executive of the Company, and instead receive compensation for his Board service. Dr. Malone has indicated that he intends to continue to forego compensation. In connection with the compensation program revisions, Ms. Coe and Messrs. Kaufman and Shean each received an initial award of RSUs with a value of $250,000 consistent with the initial award granted to newly appointed directors.

Director Stock Ownership Guidelines

In March 2010, the Board of Directors adopted stock ownership guidelines for directors to further align the interests of the directors with the interests of the stockholders of the Company. The director stock ownership guidelines apply to all directors except (i) directors who are also subject to the Company’s Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines and (ii) directors nominated by Liberty Interactive that do not receive compensation from the Company for service on the Board of Directors (“Covered Directors”).

Covered Directors are encouraged to hold a number of shares of Expedia common stock during their tenure equal to three times the annual cash retainer (currently $45,000, with the current holding requirement thereby equal to $135,000). Each Covered Director will have three years from the later of (i) the adoption of the policy and (ii) election to the Board of Directors to acquire such shares. Covered Directors have three years from their initial election to the Board of Directors attain the holding requirement. If the annual cash retainer is increased during a Covered Director’s service, the Covered Director shall have three years from the date of the increase in the annual cash retainer to acquire the additional stock. Based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on August 1, 2016, each Covered Director held shares of Expedia common stock with a value significantly greater than $135,000, except Ms. Athey, Mr. von Furstenberg, and Mr. Shean, who were each elected to the Board in December 2015, Mr. Rudin, who was elected to the Board in June 2016, and Ms. Coe, who began to receive compensation for her service as an Expedia director (therefore becoming a Covered Director) on January 1, 2016.

Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan

Under Expedia’s Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan, non-employee directors may defer all or a portion of their directors’ fees. Eligible directors who defer their directors’ fees may elect to have such deferred fees (i) applied to the purchase of share units, representing the number of shares of Expedia common stock that could have been purchased on the date such fees would otherwise be payable, or (ii) credited to a cash fund. If any dividends are paid on Expedia common stock, dividend equivalents will be credited on the share units. The cash fund will be credited with deemed interest at an annual rate equal to the average “bank prime loan” rate for such year identified in the U.S. Federal Reserve Statistical Release. Upon termination of service as a director of the Company, a director will receive (1) with respect to share units, such number of shares of Expedia common stock as the share units represent, and (2) with respect to the cash fund, a cash payment. Payments upon termination will be made in either one lump sum or up to five installments, as elected by the eligible director at the time of the deferral election.

2015 Director Compensation

As employees of the Company, Messrs. Diller, Kaufman and Khosrowshahi did not receive compensation for service as directors during 2015. Dr. Malone, Ms. Coe and Mr. Shean, each of whom were nominated by Liberty Interactive, also did not receive compensation for their Expedia Board service during 2015. As noted above, effective January 1, 2016, Ms. Coe and Messrs. Shean and Kaufman became eligible to receive compensation for their Expedia Board service.

PROPOSAL 2:

APPROVAL OF THE FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED EXPEDIA, INC. 2005 STOCK AND ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN, INCLUDING AN AMENDMENT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER BY 10,000,000

Introduction

At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders will be asked to vote to approve the Fourth Amended and Restated Expedia, Inc. 2005 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan (the “Amended 2005 Plan”), which includes an amendment to increase the number of shares authorized under the current stock and annual incentive plan by 10,000,000 shares. The Amended 2005 Plan was adopted by our Board of Directors on February 29, 2016, subject to approval by our stockholders.

The Amended 2005 Plan is an important part of the Company’s overall compensation program. It allows the Company to make annual and long-term incentive awards to the Company’s current and prospective officers, employees, directors and consultants. The purpose of the Amended 2005 Plan is to give the Company a competitive advantage in attracting, retaining and motivating officers, employees, directors and consultants and to provide them with incentives that are directly linked to the future growth and profitability of the Company’s business.

If the Amended 2005 Plan is approved by stockholders, it will allow awards under the Amended 2005 Plan that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code to be tax-deductible. Section 162(m) of the Code generally places a $1 million annual limit on a Company’s tax deduction for compensation paid to certain senior executives, other than compensation that satisfies the applicable requirements for a performance-based compensation exception. To qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, the compensation must (among other requirements) be subject to attainment of performance goals that have been disclosed to stockholders and approved by a majority stockholder vote. We are asking stockholders to approve the material terms of the performance goals under the Amended 2005 Plan so that the Company may make awards that qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m), and thus, would be tax deductible. For purposes of Section 162(m), the material terms of the performance goals requiring stockholder approval include the following:

•

the employees eligible to receive awards under the Amended 2005 Plan;

•

the business criteria used as the basis for the performance goals; and

•

the limits on the maximum amount of compensation payable to any employee in a given time period.

By approving the Amended 2005 Plan, the stockholders will be approving, among other things, the eligibility requirements, performance goals and limits on various cash and stock awards contained therein for purposes of Section 162(m).

Key Changes

If approved, the Amended 2005 Plan would make the following key changes to the current stock and annual incentive plan:


Increase in Authorized Shares		Increase the shares authorized for issuance under the Amended 2005 Plan by 10,000,000 shares.
Term of Plan		Extend the term of the plan through the tenth anniversary of the date on which our stockholders approve the Amended 2005 Plan.

Promotion of Good Compensation Practices

The Amended 2005 Plan is designed to reinforce the alignment between equity compensation arrangements for officers, employees, directors and consultants, and stockholders’ interests and, as highlighted below, includes a number of provisions that the Company believes represent best practices.

-18-

No Discounted Stock Options. Stock options may not be granted with exercise prices lower than the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant.

No “Repricing” without Stockholder Approval. The Company may not, without the approval of stockholders, (1) reduce the exercise price of an outstanding stock option or the grant price of an outstanding stock appreciation right (“SAR”) or (2) cancel and re-grant an outstanding stock option or SAR or exchange such stock option or SAR for either cash or a new award with a lower (or no) exercise price when the exercise price of such stock option or the grant price of such SAR is above the fair market value of a share of common stock.

No “Evergreen” Provision. There is no “evergreen” feature pursuant to which the shares available for issuance under the Amended 2005 Plan can be automatically replenished.

No Transferability. Awards generally may not be transferred, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, unless approved by the Compensation Committee.

No Automatic Grants. The Amended 2005 Plan does not provide for “reload” or other automatic grants to participants.

No Tax Gross-ups. The Amended 2005 Plan does not provide for any tax gross-ups.

Key Data

The following table includes information regarding outstanding equity awards, shares available for future equity awards under the current stock and annual incentive plan and total shares outstanding as of July 31, 2016 (and without giving effect to approval of this Proposal 2):


Total shares underlying outstanding options		20,059,386
Weighted average exercise price of outstanding options	$	81.5303
Weighted average remaining contractual life of outstanding options		4.96 years
Total shares underlying outstanding unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”)		630,455
Total shares currently available for grant		4,326,055
Total shares currently available for grant as full-value awards		4,326,055
Total common shares outstanding		137,006,307

Based on a review of the Company’s historical practice, the Board believes the shares available for grant under the Amended 2005 Plan, after giving effect to the amendment and restatement, will be sufficient to cover awards for at least the next two years. In 2013, 2014 and 2015, the Company granted equity awards (gross equity grants, which do not reflect the impact of cancellations) representing a total of approximately 4,214,467 shares, 4,220,944 shares and 7,264,000 shares, respectively. These awards reflect a three-year average utilization rate of 3.85%, which is above the Institutional Shareholder Services Consumer Discretionary Group burn rate threshold of 2.34% that ISS applies to our industry. Purchases under our share repurchase program (as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K) have enabled us to mitigate the dilutive effect of past awards under our equity plan. Absent circumstances not currently accounted for in our projections, such as significant market value fluctuations, acquisitions or changes to the relative mix of the type of awards granted, the Board expects to continue to grant awards under the Amended 2005 Plan consistent with the Company’s historic share utilization rates.

Summary of Terms of the Amended 2005 Plan

The principal features of the Amended 2005 Plan are described below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended 2005 Plan, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement and incorporated into this Proxy Statement by reference. Please refer to Appendix A for more information.

Administration

The Amended 2005 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. Among other things, the Compensation Committee has the authority to select individuals to whom awards may be granted, to determine the type of award as well as the number of shares of common stock to be covered by each award and to determine the terms and conditions of any such awards.

Term

Awards under the Amended 2005 Plan may be made for ten years following the date that stockholders approve the Amended 2005 Plan at this year’s annual meeting of stockholders.

Eligibility

Awards may be granted under the Amended 2005 Plan to current or prospective officers, employees, directors and consultants of Expedia and Expedia’s subsidiaries and affiliates. As of July 31, 2016, approximately 19,000 individuals were eligible to participate in the Amended 2005 Plan. During 2015, a total of approximately 2,100 individuals received awards under the current stock and annual incentive plan, and a total of approximately 4,100 individuals had received awards under the current stock and annual incentive plan during 2016.

Shares Subject to the Amended 2005 Plan

The current stock and annual incentive plan authorizes the issuance of up to 56,616,336 shares pursuant to awards under the plan. As of July 31, 2016, 4,326,055 shares remained available for grants of new awards under the plan. If stockholders approve the Amended 2005 Plan at the 2016 Annual Meeting of stockholders, the following limitations will apply under the Amended 2005 Plan:

•

Maximum number of shares underlying awards that may be granted: 66,616,336

•

Maximum number of shares that may be granted pursuant to incentive stock options: 7,000,000

•

No participant may be granted during any calendar year:

•

stock options and SARs covering in excess of 3,000,000 shares

•

performance-based awards (other than stock options and SARs) intended to qualify under Section 162(m) covering in excess of 2,000,000 shares

The foregoing share limits are subject to adjustment in certain circumstances to prevent dilution or enlargement.

The shares subject to grant under the Amended 2005 Plan are to be made available from authorized but unissued shares or from treasury shares. To the extent that any award is forfeited or any option or 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 will again be available for awards under the Amended 2005 Plan. If the exercise price of any option and/or the tax withholding obligations relating to any award are satisfied by delivering shares (by either actual delivery or by attestation), only the number of shares issued net of the shares delivered or attested to will be deemed delivered for purposes of the limits in the plan. 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 are not deemed to have been delivered for purposes of the limits set forth in the plan.

As indicated above, several types of stock grants can be made under the Amended 2005 Plan. A summary of these grants is set forth below.

-20-

Stock Options and SARs

Stock options granted under the Amended 2005 Plan can either be incentive stock options (“ISOs”) or nonqualified stock options. SARs granted under the Amended 2005 Plan can be granted either alone or in tandem with a stock option. The exercise price of options and SARs cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock underlying the options or SARs on the date of grant. The closing price of Expedia common stock, as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market, on the last business day of the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $106.30 per share. Stock options and SARs cannot be repriced without stockholder approval. Optionees may pay the exercise price in cash or, if approved by the Compensation Committee, in shares (valued at their fair market value on the date of exercise) or a combination thereof, or by “cashless exercise” through a broker or by withholding shares otherwise receivable on exercise. The term of options and SARs are as determined by the Compensation Committee, but a stock option may not have a term longer than ten years from the date of grant. The Compensation Committee determines the vesting and exercise schedule of options and SARs, which the Compensation Committee may waive or accelerate at any time, and the extent to which they will be exercisable after the award holder’s employment terminates. Generally, unvested options and SARs terminate upon the termination of employment, and vested options and SARs will remain exercisable for one year after the award holder’s death, disability or retirement and 90 days after the award holder’s termination for any other reason. Vested options and SARs also terminate upon the optionee’s termination for cause. Stock options and SARs are transferable only by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or, in the case of nonqualified stock options or SARs, as otherwise expressly permitted by the Compensation 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.

Restricted Stock

The Amended 2005 Plan provides for the award of shares that are subject to forfeiture and restrictions on transferability as set forth in the Amended 2005 Plan and as may be otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee. Except for these restrictions and any others imposed by the Compensation Committee, upon the grant of restricted stock, the recipient will have rights of a stockholder with respect to the restricted stock, including the right to vote the restricted stock and to receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect to the restricted stock on such terms as will be set forth in the applicable award agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, (i) cash dividends on the shares that are 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 (ii) dividends payable in shares shall be paid in the form of additional restricted stock, held subject to the vesting of the underlying restricted stock. Restricted stock granted under the Amended 2005 Plan may or may not be subject to performance conditions. During the restriction period set by the Compensation Committee, the recipient may not sell, transfer, pledge, exchange or otherwise encumber the restricted stock.

RSUs

The Amended 2005 Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant RSUs. RSUs are awards denominated in shares that will be settled, subject to the terms and conditions of the RSUs, in an amount in cash, shares or both, based upon the fair market value of a specified number of shares. RSUs are not shares of our common stock and do not entitle the recipients to the rights of a stockholder. The award agreement for RSUs will specify whether, to what extent and on what terms and conditions the applicable participant will be entitled to receive current or delayed payments of cash, shares or other property corresponding to the dividends payable on the shares. RSUs granted under the Amended 2005 Plan may or may not be subject to performance conditions. The recipient may not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber RSUs granted under the Amended 2005 Plan prior to their vesting.

-21-

Other Stock-Based Awards

Other awards of shares and other awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, shares, including unrestricted stock, dividend equivalents and convertible debentures, may be granted under the Amended 2005 Plan.

Cash-Based Awards

Cash-based awards may be granted under the Amended 2005 Plan. No participant may be granted cash- based awards that have an aggregate maximum payment value in any calendar year in excess of $10.0 million if the awards are intended to qualify as tax-deductible performance-based compensation under Section 162(m).

On February 25, 2016, the Compensation Committee established the 2016 calendar year annual bonus plan for named executive officers (the “2016 Cash Bonus Plan”). The 2016 Cash Bonus Plan is intended to establish awards that satisfy the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m) of the Code. Under the 2016 Cash Bonus Plan, the Compensation Committee established a maximum award opportunity of $10 million for each named executive officer, subject to satisfaction of one of two performance goals. The $10 million award opportunity is established to preserve flexibility under Section 162(m) of the Code to allow deductibility of any bonus that the Compensation Committee determines appropriate. If one of the two performance goals is satisfied, the Compensation Committee retains discretion to reduce the bonus payment to each named executive officer. As of the date of this proxy statement, neither of the applicable performance goals has been satisfied.

Performance Goals

The Amended 2005 Plan provides that performance goals may be established by the Compensation Committee in connection with the grant of any award under the Amended 2005 Plan. In the case of an award intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception of Section 162(m) of the Code, such goals will be based on the attainment of specified levels of one or more of the following measures: specified levels of earnings per share from continuing operations, net profit after tax, EBITDA, EBITA, gross profit, cash generation, unit volume, market share, sales, including hotel room night bookings or air tickets sold, asset quality, earnings per share, operating income, revenues, return on assets, return on operating assets, return on equity, profits, total stockholder return (measured in terms of stock price appreciation and/or dividend growth), cost saving levels, marketing- spending efficiency, core non-interest income, change in working capital, return on capital, and/or stock price, with respect to the Company or any subsidiary, affiliate, division or department of the Company. Such performance goals also may be based upon the attaining of specified levels of Company, subsidiary, affiliate or divisional performance under one or more of the measures described above relative to the performance of other entities, divisions or subsidiaries.

Change in Control

Unless otherwise provided by the Compensation Committee in an award agreement, in the event of a change in control of Expedia, in the case of officers of Expedia, Inc., the Delaware corporation (and not its subsidiaries), who are Senior Vice Presidents and above as of the time of the change in control and, in the case of other employees of Expedia, if provided by the Compensation Committee in an award agreement:

•

any stock options and SARs outstanding that are not then exercisable and vested will become fully exercisable and vested,

•

the restrictions applicable to restricted stock will lapse and such restricted stock will become free of all restrictions and fully vested and transferable, and

•

all RSUs will be considered to be earned and payable in full, any restrictions will lapse and such RSUs will be settled in cash or shares as promptly as practicable.

-22-

In addition, in the event that, during the two-year period following a change in control, a participant’s employment is terminated by Expedia, other than for cause or disability, or a participant resigns for good reason:

•

any SARs and stock options outstanding as of the date of termination of employment that were outstanding as of the date of the change in control will become fully exercisable and vested and will remain exercisable for the greater of (1) the period that they would remain exercisable absent the change in control provision and (2) the lesser of the original term or one year following such termination of employment,

•

the restrictions applicable to restricted stock will lapse, and such restricted stock will become free of all restrictions and fully vested and transferable, and

•

all RSUs will be considered to be earned and payable in full, any restrictions will lapse and such RSUs will be settled in cash or shares as promptly as practicable.

Amendment and Discontinuance

The Amended 2005 Plan may be amended, altered or discontinued by the Board of Directors, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuance may impair the rights of an optionee under an option or a recipient of a SAR, restricted stock award, RSU award or cashed-based award previously granted without the optionee’s or recipient’s consent. Amendments to the Amended 2005 Plan will require stockholder approval to the extent such approval is required by law or the listing standards of the applicable exchange. If approved by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting on September 14, 2016, the Amended 2005 Plan will terminate on September 14, 2026.

New Plan Benefits

All awards made under the Amended 2005 Plan are discretionary. Therefore, the benefits and amounts that will be received or allocated under the Amended 2005 Plan are not determinable at this time. The closing price of Expedia common stock, as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market, on the last business day of the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $106.30 per share. However, please refer to the “Executive Compensation—2015 Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table below, which provides information on the grants made to the named executive officers in 2015, and to the section above titled “Proposal 1—Election of Directors—Compensation of Non- Employee Directors,” which provides information on grants made to our non-employee directors in the last fiscal year.

Existing Plan Benefits

Pursuant to SEC rules, the table below reflects the number of shares subject to options granted through December 31, 2015 that count against the maximum share authorization of the Amended Plan. These share numbers do not take into account the effect of options that have been cancelled or that expired unexercised and do not reflect shares subject to RSUs that have been granted to participants under the Amended Plan.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of certain federal income tax consequences of awards made under the Amended 2005 Plan based upon the laws in effect on the date hereof. The discussion is general in nature and does not take into account a number of considerations which may apply in light of the circumstances of a particular participant under the Amended 2005 Plan. The income tax consequences under applicable state and local tax laws may not be the same as under federal income tax laws.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of a non-qualified stock option, and we will not be entitled to a tax deduction at such time. A participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee) upon exercise of a non-qualified stock option equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares purchased over their exercise price, and we generally will be entitled to a corresponding deduction.

Incentive Stock Options

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of an incentive stock option. A participant will not recognize taxable income (except for purposes of the alternative minimum tax) upon exercise of an incentive stock option. If the shares acquired by exercise of an incentive stock option are held for the longer of two years from the date the stock option was granted and one year from the date the shares were transferred, any gain or loss arising from a subsequent disposition of such shares will be taxed as long-term capital gain or loss, and we will not be entitled to any deduction. If, however, such shares are disposed of within such two- or one-year periods, then in the year of such disposition the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income equal to the excess of the lesser of the amount realized upon such disposition and the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price, and we generally will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. The excess of the amount realized through the disposition date over the fair market value of the stock on the exercise date will be treated as capital gain.

SARs

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of a SAR, and we will not be entitled to a tax deduction at such time. Upon exercise, a participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee) equal to the fair market value of any shares delivered and the amount of cash paid by us, and we generally will be entitled to a corresponding deduction.

Restricted Stock

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of shares of restricted stock, and we will not be entitled to a tax deduction at such time, unless the participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at such time. If such election is made, the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee) at the time of the grant equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at such time over the amount, if any, paid for such shares. If such election is not made, the participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee) at the time the restrictions lapse in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares at such time over the amount, if any, paid for such shares. The Company is entitled to a corresponding deduction at the time the ordinary income is recognized by the participant, except to the extent the deduction limits of Section 162(m) of the Code apply. In addition, a participant receiving dividends with respect to restricted stock for which the above-described election has not been made and prior to the time the restrictions lapse will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee), rather than dividend income. The Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction, except to the extent the deduction limits of Section 162(m) of the Code apply.

-24-

Restricted Stock Units

A participant will not recognize taxable income at the time of grant of a restricted stock unit, and we will not be entitled to a tax deduction at such time. A participant will recognize compensation taxable as ordinary income (and subject to income tax withholding in respect of an employee) at the time of settlement of the award equal to the fair market value of any shares delivered and the amount of cash paid by us, and we will be entitled to a corresponding deduction, except to the extent the deduction limits of Section 162(m) of the Code apply.

Section 162(m) Limitations

As explained above, Section 162(m) of the Code generally places a $1 million annual limit on a Company’s tax deduction for compensation paid to certain senior executives, other than compensation that satisfies the applicable requirements for a performance-based compensation exception. The Amended 2005 Plan is designed so that stock options and SARs qualify for this exemption, and it also permits the Compensation Committee to grant other awards designed to qualify for this exception. However, the Compensation Committee reserves the right to grant awards that do not qualify for this exception, and, in some cases, the exception may cease to be available for some or all awards that otherwise so qualify. Thus, it is possible that Section 162(m) of the Code may disallow compensation deductions that would otherwise be available to the Company.

The foregoing general tax discussion is intended for the information of stockholders considering how to vote with respect to this proposal and not as tax guidance to participants in the Amended 2005 Plan. Participants are strongly urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the federal, state, local, foreign and other tax consequences to them of participating in the Amended 2005 Plan.

Required Vote

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to approve the Amended 2005 Plan, including an amendment to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Amended 2005 Plan by 10,000,000. This proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of Expedia common stock and Class B common stock, present in person or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED EXPEDIA, INC. 2005 STOCK AND ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN, INCLUDING AN AMENDMENT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER BY 10,000,000.

PROPOSAL 3:

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Ernst & Young LLP was Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has also appointed Ernst & Young LLP as Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2016.

Selection of Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required to be submitted to a vote of the stockholders for ratification. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that the Audit Committee be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the audit work of the independent registered public accounting firm. If the stockholders fail to vote on an advisory basis in favor of the appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain Ernst & Young LLP and may retain that firm or another firm without resubmitting the matter to Expedia stockholders. Even if stockholders vote on an advisory basis in favor of the appointment, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of Expedia and its stockholders.

A representative of Ernst & Young LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, and will be given an opportunity to make a statement if he or she so chooses and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Required Vote

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Expedia’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2016. This proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of Expedia common stock and Class B common stock, present in person or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS EXPEDIA’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR 2016.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements, the public reporting process and establishing and maintaining an effective system of internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is engaged to audit and express opinions on the conformity of the Company’s financial statements to generally accepted accounting principles and applicable rules and regulations, and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

In this context, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2015, together with the results of the assessment of the internal control over financial reporting, with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters that are required to be discussed under Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) standards. In addition, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm as required by PCAOB rules, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm, their independence from the Company and its management. Finally, the Audit Committee has considered the independent registered public accounting firm’s provision of audit and non-audit services to the Company and concluded that the provision of such services is compatible with the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence.

Relying on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the SEC.

Members of the Audit Committee:

A. George “Skip” Battle (Chairman)

Craig A. Jacobson

Audit Committee Review and Pre-Approval of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees

The Audit Committee has considered the audit and non-audit services provided by Ernst & Young LLP, as described above, and believes that they are compatible with maintaining Ernst & Young LLP’s independence as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy governing the pre-approval of all audit and permitted non-audit services performed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to ensure that the provision of such services does not impair the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence from the Company and its management. Unless a type of service to be provided by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has received general pre-approval from the Audit Committee, it requires specific pre- approval by the Audit Committee. The payment for any proposed services in excess of pre-approved cost levels requires specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

Pursuant to its pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee may delegate its authority to pre-approve services to one or more of its members, and has currently delegated this authority to its Chairman, subject to a limit of $500,000 per approval. The decisions of the Chairman (or any other member(s) to whom such authority may be delegated) to grant pre-approvals must be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee may not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services to management.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, Expedia officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of Expedia’s equity securities are required to file initial statements of beneficial ownership (Form 3) and statements of changes in beneficial ownership (Forms 4 and 5) with the SEC. Such persons are required by the rules of the SEC to furnish Expedia with copies of all such forms they file. Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to Expedia and/or written representations that no additional forms were required, Expedia believes that all of its directors, officers and 10% beneficial holders complied with all of the reporting requirements applicable to them with respect to transactions during 2015. On April 22, 2016, a Form 4 was filed to report a sale of shares by a trust for which Mr. Khosrowshahi disclaims beneficial ownership. The Form 4 was inadvertently filed late due to an administrative error.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes Expedia’s executive compensation program as it relates to the following individuals who were “named executive officers” of Expedia during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015:


Barry Diller		Chairman/Senior Executive
Dara Khosrowshahi		Chief Executive Officer
Mark D. Okerstrom		Executive Vice President of Operations and Chief Financial Officer
Robert J. Dzielak		Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary
Victor A. Kaufman		Vice Chairman

Compensation Program Philosophy and Objectives

Expedia’s executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate and retain highly skilled executives with the business experience and acumen that we believe are necessary for achievement of Expedia’s long-term business objectives. We support a pay for performance culture where employees are rewarded for individual, business and overall company success. The executive compensation program is designed to reward short- and long-term performance and to align the financial interests of executive officers with the interests of Expedia’s stockholders. We evaluate both performance and compensation levels to ensure that Expedia maintains its ability to attract and retain outstanding employees in executive positions and that the compensation provided to these executives remains competitive with the compensation paid to similarly situated executives at comparable companies. To that end, we believe that compensation packages provided to executive officers should include both cash and a significant equity-based component.

Roles of the Compensation Committee and Section 16 Committee

Expedia has a Compensation Committee and a Section 16 Committee that together have primary responsibility for establishing the compensation of Expedia’s named executive officers.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for (i) administering and overseeing Expedia’s executive compensation program, including salary matters, bonus plans and equity compensation plans, and (ii) approving all grants of equity awards, but excluding matters governed by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

The Section 16 Committee is responsible for administering and overseeing matters governed by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, including approving grants of equity awards to named executive officers.

The Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors and consists entirely of directors who are “outside directors” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Section 16 Committee is also appointed by the Board of Directors and consists entirely of directors who are “non-employee directors” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. For the purposes of this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, we refer to the Compensation Committee and Section 16 Committee collectively as the “Compensation Committees.”

During 2015, the Compensation Committee consisted of Ms. Coe, Mr. Dolgen, Mr. Jacobson and Mr. Kern, and the Section 16 Committee consisted of Messrs. Dolgen, Jacobson and Kern. Mr. Dolgen and Mr. Kern are Co-chairmen of the Compensation Committees.

-33-

Role of Executive Officers

Expedia management participates in reviewing and refining Expedia’s executive compensation program. Mr. Khosrowshahi and Mr. Diller meet with the Compensation Committees at least annually to discuss compensation packages for the executive team. Mr. Khosrowshahi annually reviews the performance of Expedia and each named executive officer other than himself, Messrs. Diller and Kaufman with the Compensation Committees and makes recommendations with respect to the appropriate base salary, annual cash bonus and grants of long-term equity incentive awards. Mr. Diller meets separately with the Compensation Committees to discuss his, and Messrs. Khosrowshahi and Kaufman’s performance, and to recommend appropriate compensation packages for Messrs. Khosrowshahi and Kaufman. The Compensation Committees then discuss each recommendation, with each of Messrs. Diller and Khosrowshahi absent when his respective compensation is discussed. After considering these recommendations and other considerations discussed below, the Compensation Committees determine the annual compensation package for each named executive officer.

Role of Compensation Consultants

In connection with the Company’s annual compensation review meetings in each of 2015 and 2016, management retained Compensia, Inc., an independent compensation consulting firm, to conduct an independent review of the prior year’s compensation peer group for positions held by the named executive officers and to compile data from proxy statements and other SEC filings of peer companies regarding compensation for executive officer positions, where available. Compensia also advised the Compensation Committees with regard to the long-term equity awards granted to Mr. Khosrowshahi in connection with his entry into a new long-term employment agreement in the first quarter of 2015 as discussed further below in the section titled “Compensation Program Elements—Equity Compensation—Additional 2015 Equity Awards to Mr. Khosrowshahi”, as well as the long-term equity award granted to Mr. Okerstrom in connection with his new multi-year employment agreement in the first quarter of 2016.

Expedia also regularly uses non-customized survey or other data from a number of compensation consulting firms. A more detailed description of the compensation peer group review and use of survey and other data provided by compensation consultants is included below in the section titled “The Role of Peer Groups, Surveys and Benchmarking.”

Role of Stockholder Say-on-Pay Votes

Expedia provides its stockholders with the opportunity to cast a triennial advisory vote on executive compensation (“say-on-pay”), which reflects the preference expressed by stockholders in 2011 with respect to the frequency of the say-on-pay vote (“say-on-frequency”). At Expedia’s annual meeting of stockholders held in June 2014, a substantial majority of the votes cast on the say-on-pay proposal at that meeting was voted in favor of the proposal. The Compensation Committees believe that the vote reflected stockholder support of Expedia’s approach to executive compensation, and, as such, did not make changes based on the 2014 vote. Stockholders will again have an opportunity to cast both say-on-pay and say-on-frequency votes at the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of stockholders. The Compensation Committees will continue to consider the outcome of say-on-pay votes when making future compensation decisions for executive officers.

Role of Peer Groups, Surveys and Benchmarking

Management considers multiple data sources when reviewing compensation information to ensure that the data reflect compensation practices of relevant companies in terms of size, industry and geographic location. Among other factors, management considers the following information, when available, in connection with its recommendations to the Compensation Committees regarding compensation for executive officers:

•

Data from salary and equity compensation surveys that include companies of a similar size, based on market capitalization, revenues and other factors, and

-34-

•

Data regarding compensation for comparable executive officer positions from recent proxy statements and other SEC filings of peer companies, which include:

•

direct industry competitors, and

•

non-industry companies with which Expedia commonly competes for talent (including both regional and national competitors).

When available, management considers competitive market compensation paid by other peer group companies but does not attempt to maintain a certain target percentile within the peer group or otherwise rely solely on such data when making recommendations to the Compensation Committees regarding compensation for executive officers. Management and the Compensation Committees strive to incorporate flexibility into the compensation programs and the assessment process to respond to and adjust for the evolving business environment and the value delivered by the executive officers.

In light of his role as both Chairman and Senior Executive of Expedia, a separate peer group comprised of executives in comparable roles is considered with respect to Mr. Diller’s compensation. In addition, we review each of our peer groups annually. For both 2015 and 2016, we engaged Compensia to conduct an initial review and make recommendations regarding peer group changes. In each case, the Compensation Committees then considered any proposed changes prior to approving the peer groups for the upcoming year.

2015 Peer Groups. In connection with the Compensation Committees’ approval of executive officer base salary and equity compensation during 2015, which is discussed below in the sections titled “Compensation Program Elements—Base Salary” and “Compensation Program Elements—Equity Compensation”, data regarding compensation for comparable executive officer positions at the following peer companies was considered:

Executive Officer Peer Group (other than Chairman/Senior Executive):


Activision Blizzard, Inc.		Orbitz Worldwide, Inc.

Adobe Systems Incorporated		priceline.com Incorporated

Alliance Data Systems Corporation		Sabre Corporation

Electronic Arts Inc.		salesforce.com, inc.

Groupon, Inc.		Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc.

CBS Corporation		Marriott International, Inc.

Charles Schwab		News Corporation

DISH Network Corporation		Starbucks Corporation

Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc.		Viacom Inc.

Hyatt Hotels Corporation

2016 Peer Groups. In connection with the Compensation Committee’s approval of executive officer cash bonuses for 2015, which were approved in the first quarter of 2016 and are discussed below in the section titled “Compensation Program Elements—Cash Bonuses”, the Compensation Committee considered data from the same peer groups as the prior year, except that LinkedIn Corporation and Zillow Group, Inc. were added to the executive peer group and Groupon, Inc., Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Orbitz Worldwide, Inc. were removed, and Twitter, Inc. was added to the Chairman/Senior Executive peer group.

Compensation Program Elements

General

The primary elements of the executive compensation program are base salary, cash bonus and equity compensation. The Compensation Committees review these elements in the first quarter of each year in light of Company and individual performance, recommendations from management and other relevant information, including prior compensation history and outstanding long-term compensation arrangements. Management and the Compensation Committees believe that there are multiple, dynamic factors that contribute to success at an individual and business level and have therefore avoided adopting strict formulas and relied primarily on a discretionary approach that allows the Compensation Committees to set executive compensation levels on a case- by-case basis, taking into account all relevant factors.

Following recommendations from management, the Compensation Committees may adjust compensation for executive officers at other times during the year including when executives are hired, when there are significant changes in their responsibilities, in connection with entering into new or extended employment agreements, or under other circumstances that the Compensation Committees consider appropriate.

Base Salary

Base salary represents the fixed portion of a named executive officer’s compensation and is intended to provide compensation for expected day-to-day performance. An executive officer’s base salary is initially determined upon hire or promotion based on the executive officer’s responsibilities, prior experience, individual compensation history and salary levels of other executives within Expedia and similarly situated executives at comparable companies.

Base salary is typically reviewed annually, at the time of the executive’s hire, promotion or expansion in responsibilities, or entry into a multi-year employment agreement, at which time management makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee based on consideration of a variety of factors, including:

•

the executive’s total compensation relative to other executives in similarly situated positions;

•

individual performance of the executive;

•

the executive’s responsibilities, prior experience, and individual compensation history, including any additional compensation such as signing bonuses or relocation benefits;

•

the terms of the executive’s employment agreement, if any;

•

general economic conditions;

•

competitive compensation market data, when available; and

•

the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer, other than in connection with compensation for himself, the Chairman/Senior Executive and the Vice Chairman.

2015 Base Salary Changes: Mr. Kaufman has never received a base salary from the Company. Other than Mr. Dzielak, the base salaries of the other named executive officers were unchanged in connection with the 2015 annual compensation review.

On February 27, 2015, the Compensation Committee approved the terms of, and on March 2, 2015 the Company entered into, an amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Dzielak (the “Amended Dzielak Agreement”) that extended the expiration date of the agreement from May 9, 2015 to March 2, 2018. Pursuant to the Amended Dzielak Agreement, Mr. Dzielak’s annual base salary was increased from $450,000 to $575,000, effective as of March 1, 2015, and his annual target bonus was increased from 75% to 100% of his annual base salary. The remaining material terms of Mr. Dzielak’s employment were unchanged.

Cash Bonuses

Cash bonuses are granted to recognize and reward an individual’s annual contribution to Company performance. Bonus target percentages for executive officers, other than the Chairman/Senior Executive, the Vice Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer, are generally established by the Compensation Committee, based on the recommendation of management, at the time of the executive’s hire, promotion, expansion in responsibilities, or entry into a multi-year employment agreement, and are reviewed each year by the Chief Executive Officer with the approval of the Chairman/ Senior Executive and the Compensation Committee. In addition to annual bonuses related to performance, management may also recommend that the Compensation Committee grant bonuses to new executive officers upon hire or existing executive officers upon promotion. Expedia utilizes new hire bonuses to help attract highly skilled executives to Expedia and to offset an executive’s loss of incentive compensation from a prior employer.

When approving annual bonuses for executive officers, the Compensation Committee has adopted a two-step process. At the beginning of each year, the Compensation Committee establishes performance goals, which historically have been tied to the achievement of either stock price performance or worldwide hotel bookings during the forthcoming year, and maximum bonus amounts. In general, the performance goals reflect the minimally acceptable Company performance that must be achieved in order for any amount of cash bonuses to be awarded to the executive officers, but with respect to which there is substantial uncertainty when established. These performance goals and maximum bonus amounts are primarily designed to permit Expedia to deduct executive officer compensation for federal income tax purposes in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, satisfaction of the applicable performance targets does not obligate the Compensation Committee to approve any specific bonus amount for any executive officer and the Compensation Committee has historically reduced the maximum amount based on a discretionary assessment that takes into account a variety of factors, including:

•

Expedia’s business and financial performance, including year-over-year performance;

•

the executive’s target cash bonus percentage, if any;

•

the executive’s individual performance;

•

the terms of the executive’s employment agreement or separation arrangements, if applicable;

•

the overall funding of the cash bonus pool;

•

amount of bonus relative to other Company executives;

•

general economic conditions;

•

competitive compensation market data, when available; and

•

the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman/Senior Executive, which do not include recommendations regarding their own compensation.

Neither Mr. Diller, as Chairman/Senior Executive, nor Mr. Khosrowshahi, as Chief Executive Officer, has a target cash bonus percentage. Mr. Kaufman has never received a cash bonus and does not have a target cash bonus percentage. Messrs. Okerstrom and Dzielak each have a target cash bonus of 100% of their respective base salaries.

-37-

2015 Annual Cash Bonuses: For 2015 annual bonuses, the Compensation Committee conditioned payment of bonuses to executive officers on attaining:

•

Worldwide hotel room night bookings (room nights stayed basis) of Expedia on a consolidated basis in any of the three consecutive calendar quarters beginning with the second quarter of 2015 must be at least 5% higher than worldwide hotel bookings in the corresponding calendar quarter twelve months before, excluding the benefit of any acquisitions by the Expedia during such period; or

•

On at least 30 trading days during the period beginning February 28, 2015 through December 31, 2015, the closing price per share of Expedia’s common stock must exceed by at least 5% the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on February 27, 2015, which was $91.75, taking into account any Share Change or Corporate Transaction (each as defined in the Expedia 2005 Plan).

The stock price performance and hotel bookings goals were met, as determined by the Compensation Committee during the fourth quarter of 2015.

On February 25, 2016, the Compensation Committee approved bonuses with respect to the 2015 calendar year for each of the named executive officers other than Mr. Kaufman. The 2015 annual cash bonuses for each of Messrs. Diller and Khosrowshahi were significantly lower than the prior year, reflecting the Company’s solid business and financial performance during 2015 compared to the strong performance for the prior year. The 2015 annual cash bonuses awarded to Messrs. Okerstrom and Dzielak were higher than the prior year, primarily in recognition of the key role each played in the structuring, negotiation and execution of key corporate transactions during 2015, including the acquisitions of Orbitz Worldwide, Inc. and HomeAway, Inc., as well as other strategic investments and dispositions.

The cash bonuses described above are reflected in the “Bonus” column of the table titled “2015 Summary Compensation Table” in the section below titled “Executive Compensation.”

Equity Compensation

Equity compensation is designed to align executive compensation with the interests of stockholders and the long-term performance of Expedia. Equity compensation awards link compensation to financial performance because the value of equity awards depends on Expedia’s stock price. Equity compensation awards are also an important employee retention tool because they generally vest over a multi-year period, subject to continued service by the award recipient.

The Compensation Committees, based on management’s recommendations, generally utilize awards of stock options as Expedia’s primary equity compensation vehicle, but have also awarded restricted stock units at the time of hire to replace forfeited equity of a prior employer and pursuant to individually negotiated arrangements and special circumstances. Stock options are favored because the value from stock option awards is directly dependent on appreciation in the Company’s stock price and therefore provides an objectively measurable goal.

Equity awards are typically granted to executive officers upon hire, promotion, in connection with the Company’s annual compensation review or entry into a multi-year employment agreement. Management generally recommends annual equity awards in the first quarter of each year when the Compensation Committees meet to make determinations regarding annual bonuses for the last completed fiscal year and to set compensation levels for the current fiscal year. The meeting at which the Compensation Committees approve these awards is generally scheduled several months in advance and timed to occur after the public disclosure of Expedia’s prior year financial statements.

-38-

The Compensation Committees review various factors considered by management when establishing the Expedia-wide equity grant pool, including:

•

Expedia’s business and financial performance, including year-over-year performance;

•

dilution rates, taking into account projected headcount changes and employee turnover;

•

non-cash compensation as a percentage of adjusted EBITDA;

•

equity compensation utilization by peer companies;

•

general economic conditions; and

•

competitive compensation market data regarding award values.

For specific grants to executive officers, management makes recommendations to the Section 16 Committee based on a variety of factors, including:

•

individual performance and future potential of the executive;

•

the overall size of the equity grant pool;

•

award value relative to other Company executives;

•

the value of previous grants and amount of outstanding unvested equity awards;

•

competitive compensation market data, where comparable; and

•

the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer, other than in connection with compensation for himself and the Chairman/Senior Executive.

After review and consideration of management’s recommendations, the Section 16 Committee decides whether to approve the grants of equity compensation to executive officers and the Compensation Committee decides whether to approve grants of equity compensation to non-executive officers.

2015 Annual Review Equity Awards: On February 27, 2015, each of the named executive officers received an award of stock options that vest in equal installments on the first four anniversaries of the grant date. The exercise price for each stock option is $91.75 (the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the date of grant), and each stock option has a seven-year term. In approving the stock option awards, the Section 16 Committee considered, with input from Mr. Khosrowshahi in the case of Messrs. Dzielak and Okerstrom, and Mr. Diller in the case of Messrs. Khosrowshahi and Kaufman, the individual performance of each executive and the factors described above in relation to the establishment of the Expedia-wide equity grant pool and specific equity award grants. The Section 16 Committee also gave particular consideration to the following factors:

•

with respect to Mr. Diller, his role in providing strategic direction for the Company overall;

•

with respect to Mr. Khosrowshahi, his role in:

•

directly managing the strong performance for the Company’s flagship Expedia brand, for which Mr. Khosrowshahi had day-to-day operational oversight responsibility in his role as brand president;

•

the continued expansion of the Company’s portfolio of brands and global presence through successful acquisitions and investments, and

•

overseeing several key Company initiatives, including a significant ramp up in the rate of new property acquisitions and the successful implementation of the strategic marketing agreement with Travelocity.

•

with respect to Mr. Kaufman, his participation in strategic oversight of the Company and the fact that he does not receive either a base salary or cash bonus compensation; and

-39-

•

with respect to Messrs. Okerstrom and Dzielak, their respective roles in structuring, negotiating and executing key corporate transactions, as well as, in the case Mr. Okerstrom, his additional responsibilities as Executive Vice President of Operations and, in the case of Mr. Dzielak, his continued effective management of legal costs and litigation defense matters.

Additional 2015 Restricted Stock Unit Award to Mr. Dzielak. In connection with the Compensation Committee’s approval of the terms of a multi-year employment agreement with Mr. Dzielak, as described above, the Section 16 Committee also approved an award to Mr. Dzielak of 11,592 restricted stock units that will vest annually over four years, subject to his continued service with the Company and the satisfaction of the performance goals described above the section titled “Compensation Program Elements—Cash Bonuses—2015 Cash Bonuses”, which goals were met, as determined by the Compensation Committee during the fourth quarter of 2015.

Additional 2015 Stock Option Awards to Mr. Khosrowshahi. On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into a new, long-term employment agreement with Mr. Khosrowshahi, which was effective as of March 31, 2015 and has a term that expires on September 30, 2020. Mr. Khosrowshahi’s prior employment agreement was due to expire on August 2, 2015. Under the terms of Mr. Khosrowshahi’s employment agreement, he will continue to receive his current $1,000,000 base salary and be entitled to receive an annual discretionary bonus. Mr. Khosrowshahi will also be entitled to receive the severance benefits described below in the section below titled “—Severance” and will continue to be restricted from competing with the Company and from soliciting Company employees and business partners during the twenty-four month period following his termination of employment for any reason.

In connection with Mr. Khosrowshahi’s entry into the new employment agreement, and based on the recommendation of management, the Section 16 Committee also approved the following long-term equity awards to Mr. Khosrowshahi:

•

an award of 1.6 million stock options that vest 50% on each of the third and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to Mr. Khosrowshahi’s continued employment with the Company (the “Khosrowshahi Cliff Vest Options”); and

•

an award of 1.1 million stock options that are subject to Mr. Khosrowshahi’s continued employment with the Company and satisfaction of a stock price goal of $170 (an 80.6% increase to the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the date of grant), measured on the basis of the average of the closing prices of the Company’s common stock for either the six or twelve-month period immediately preceding September 30, 2020 (the “Khosrowshahi Performance Options” and together with the Cliff Vest Options, the “Khosrowshahi Stock Option Awards”).

The exercise price for the Khosrowshahi Stock Option Awards is $95.00 (representing an $0.87 premium to the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the date of grant), and each stock option has a seven-year term.

Upon a termination of Mr. Khosrowshahi’s employment by the Company without cause (other than by reason of his death or disability) or resignation by Mr. Khosrowshahi for Good Reason, the Stock Option Awards will vest on a pro rated basis for each full month from the date of grant to the first anniversary of the termination date and, in the case of the Performance Options, subject to the achievement of the stock price goal. For the purposes of the Stock Option Awards only, the definition of good reason includes (in addition to other triggers) the current Chairman and Senior Executive no longer serving in that or a similar role and either (i) beneficially owning equity securities representing less than 35% of the Company voting power or (ii) beneficially owning equity securities representing at least 35% of the Company voting power and another stockholder holding securities of the Company representing a greater voting power. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Expedia 2005 Plan) or the acquisition for cash by Liberty Interactive or any of its Affiliates of beneficial ownership of 100% of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities (as defined in the Expedia 2005 Plan), the Stock Option Awards will vest in full.

-40-

Mr. Khosrowshahi and the Committee also agreed that Mr. Khosrowshahi is not expected to receive additional equity compensation for the 5.5 year term of his employment agreement, though the Committee retains the discretion to grant equity awards as it deems appropriate, including to Mr. Khosrowshahi.

To assist the Committees, the Company engaged Compensia to evaluate various long-term incentive alternatives and make recommendations to the Committees. In finalizing the structure of the Khosrowshahi Stock Option Awards, the Committees took into account a variety of factors, including:

•

competitive pay and performance data among a comparator group of companies;

•

Mr. Khosrowshahi’s existing unvested equity holdings;

•

the additional incentive to create significant shareholder value by virtue of the stock price performance goal applicable to the Khosrowshahi Performance Options;

•

the Committees’ substantial desire to retain Mr. Khosrowshahi’s services for the long-term, as reflected in the extended vesting schedule for both the Khosrowshahi Cliff Vest Options and the Khosrowshahi Performance Options; and

•

Mr. Khosrowshahi’s agreement with the Committees that he is not expected to receive additional equity compensation for the 5.5 year term of his employment agreement.

The 2015 equity grants to the named executive officers are reflected in the table titled “2015 Grants of Plan- Based Awards” in the section below titled “Executive Compensation.”

Other Compensation

In addition to the primary elements of compensation (base salary, cash bonuses and equity awards) described above, the named executive officers may also receive compensation in the following forms:

•

401(k) Match: Executives who participate in Expedia’s 401(k) Retirement Program are eligible for Company matching contributions (as are all domestic Expedia employees). Expedia matches 50% of each dollar a participant contributes, up to the first 6% of eligible compensation, subject to applicable Internal Revenue Service limits.

•

Personal Use of Corporate Aircraft: Executives may receive benefits attributable to the personal use of certain aircraft, including aircraft jointly owned by Expedia and IAC. Pursuant to Company policy, Mr. Diller is required to, and Mr. Khosrowshahi and other senior executives are encouraged to, travel on corporate aircraft for both business and personal purposes. In addition to serving general security interests, this means of travel permits Mr. Diller and Mr. Khosrowshahi and other executives to travel non-stop and without delay, to remain in contact with Expedia while traveling, to change plans quickly in the event Company business requires, and to conduct confidential Company business while flying, be it telephonically, by email or in person. These interests are furthered on both business and personal flights, as Mr. Diller, Mr. Khosrowshahi and other executives typically provide services to Expedia while traveling in either case. Nonetheless, the incremental cost to Expedia of executive’s travel for personal purposes during 2015 is reflected as compensation from Expedia. For personal use of Company-owned aircraft during 2015, Mr. Khosrowshahi offset the cost to the Company at the maximum rates allowable under applicable rules of the Federal Aviation Administration.

In addition, in light of Mr. Diller’s senior role at both companies, Expedia and IAC have agreed to share certain expenses associated with the provision of personal benefits to Mr. Diller, including the use of automobiles for personal purposes and certain office space and IT equipment used by individuals who work for Mr. Diller personally. Expedia and IAC each cover 50% of the costs, which reflects the current allocation of actual time spent by Mr. Diller between the two companies.

-41-

Stock Ownership & Hedging Policies

Stock Ownership: To further align the interests of Expedia senior management and Expedia stockholders, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors adopted a Stock Ownership Policy, effective October 26, 2009. The Stock Ownership Policy specifies a number of shares that the Chief Executive Officer and all executives reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer are expected to accumulate and hold by the later of five years from the date of hire or promotion into an eligible position or September 30, 2016 (the “Ownership Target Date”). Unexercised stock options and unvested RSUs are not counted toward compliance with the minimum stockholding target.

The Stock Ownership Policy also includes stock retention provisions. Prior to the Ownership Target Date, if eligible executives have not met their stockholding requirement, they are required to retain 25% of the net shares received from any exercised options or any vested RSUs until they have met their stockholding target. Net shares are the shares remaining after payment of the exercise price and/or withholding of taxes. If executives subject to the Policy have not met their stockholding requirement on the Ownership Target Date, the net-share retention percentage may be increased until they have met their minimum stockholding target. The Stock Ownership Policy minimum stockholding target is 200,000 shares for Mr. Khosrowshahi and 60,000 shares for Messrs. Dzielak and Okerstrom. Mr. Khosrowshahi holds shares significantly in excess of his minimum target. Messrs. Dzielak and Okerstrom are in compliance with the Stock Ownership Policy and have until April 2017 and September 2016, their respective Ownership Target Dates, to meet the stockholding target.

Hedging: The Expedia, Inc. Securities Trading Policy prohibits employees, including executive officers, from engaging in short sales with respect to Expedia securities or the purchase, sale or issuance of options or rights relating to Expedia securities. This prohibition extends to various forms of hedging or monetization transactions.

Tax Matters

Section 162(m) of the Code generally permits a tax deduction to public corporations for compensation over$1 million paid in any fiscal year to a corporation’s chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated executive officers only if the compensation qualifies as being performance-based under Section 162(m). Expedia endeavors to structure its compensation policies to qualify as performance-based under Section 162(m) whenever it is reasonably possible to do so while meeting Expedia’s compensation objectives.

Nonetheless, deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code is one of many factors the Compensation Committees take into account in determining executive officer compensation. From time to time certain nondeductible compensation may be paid and the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committees reserve the authority to award nondeductible compensation to executive officers in appropriate circumstances. It is possible that some compensation paid pursuant to certain equity awards that have already been granted may be nondeductible as a result of Section 162(m). Additionally, under applicable Internal Revenue Service rules, the personal use of corporate aircraft leads to a disallowance of the deduction by Expedia for tax purposes of certain airplane-related costs.

For purposes of allowing Expedia to deduct employee compensation in accordance with Section 162(m), the Compensation Committees made all annual bonuses payable to named executive officers for 2015 and all restricted stock units awarded to named executive officers during 2015 subject to the satisfaction of the performance goals described in the sections above titled “Compensation Program Elements—Cash Bonuses” and “Compensation Program Elements—Equity Compensation.”

Change in Control

Under the Expedia 2005 Plan, certain executive officers are entitled to accelerated vesting of equity awards in the event of a change in control of Expedia. In addition, vesting for the Khosrowshahi Cliff Vest Options and

-42-

Khosrowshahi Performance Options described above would also accelerate upon the acquisition for cash by Liberty Interactive or any of its Affiliates of beneficial ownership of 100% of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities (as defined in the Expedia 2005 Plan).

The Compensation Committees believe that accelerated vesting of equity awards in connection with change in control transactions would provide an incentive for these executives to continue to help execute successfully such a transaction from its early stages until closing.

For a description and quantification of these change in control benefits, please see the section below titled “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Severance

Expedia has entered into an employment agreement with each of Messrs. Dzielak, Khosrowshahi, and Okerstrom, pursuant to which, in the event of a qualifying termination and subject to the executive executing a release of claims agreement:

•

Expedia will continue to pay base salary through the longer of the end of the term of the employment agreement (subject to a maximum of 36 months for Mr. Khosrowshahi only) and 12 months (payable in equal biweekly installments);

•

Expedia will consider in good faith the payment of discretionary bonuses on a pro rata basis for the year in which termination of employment occurs (payable in a lump sum at the time such annual bonus would otherwise have been paid);

•

Expedia will pay an amount equal to COBRA health insurance coverage for a period of 12 months (for Messrs. Khosrowshahi and Dzielak, payable in a lump sum, and for Mr. Okerstrom, payable monthly);

•

except as described under “Compensation Program Elements—Equity Compensation—Additional 2015 Stock Option Awards to Mr. Khosrowshahi.” with respect to the stock option awards granted to Mr. Khosrowshahi on March 31, 2015, all equity holdings that otherwise would have vested during the 12-month period following termination of employment will accelerate, provided that equity awards that vest less frequently than annually shall be treated as though such awards vested annually; and

•

Messrs. Dzielak, Khosrowshahi, and Okerstrom will have 18 months following the date of termination to exercise any vested stock options (including stock options accelerated pursuant to the terms of the executive’s employment agreement) or, if earlier, through the scheduled expiration date of the options

In addition, Messrs. Dzielak, Khosrowshahi, and Okerstrom will be restricted from competing with the Company and from soliciting Company employees and business partners during a period (the longer of the term of their employment agreement and eighteen months in the case of Messrs. Dzielak and Okerstrom and twenty- four months in the case of Mr. Khosrowshahi), following termination of their employment for any reason.

Any cash payments made in connection with the provisions described above shall be offset by any cash amounts earned from another employer during the applicable time period. The foregoing arrangements are intended to attract and retain qualified executives who may have other employment alternatives that may appear to them to be less risky absent these arrangements.

2016 Compensation Arrangements

Mr. Kaufman. On January 22, 2016, in connection with Mr. Kaufman’s agreement to forego future compensation for his services as an executive of Expedia, the Board of Directors of Expedia approved an amendment to the Company’s director compensation program to provide that, effective as of January 1, 2016 Mr. Kaufman would be entitled receive the same compensation as non-employee directors of Expedia, which is

-43-

described in the section above entitled “Compensation of Directors”. Also, on January 22, 2016, consistent with Expedia’s director compensation program, Mr. Kaufman received an initial grant of 2,349 restricted stock units, which represented a value of $250,000 based on the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market on the day prior to the grant. The restricted stock units vest in three equal installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Mr. Okerstrom. On March 7, 2016, the Compensation Committee approved, and on March 7, 2016, the Company entered into, a third amendment to the existing employment agreement with Mr. Okerstrom. Mr. Okerstrom’s existing employment agreement was set to expire on March 7, 2017. His amended employment agreement has a three-year term expiring on March 7, 2019 and the remaining terms of the employment agreement were unchanged. In connection with the Compensation Committee’s approval of his amended employment agreement, the Section 16 Committee approved the following long-term equity awards to Mr. Okerstrom:

•

an award of 225,000 stock options that vest 50% on each of the third and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to Mr. Okerstrom’s continued employment with the Company (the “Okerstrom Cliff Vest Options”); and

•

an award of 175,000 stock options that are subject to Mr. Okerstrom’s continued employment with the Company and satisfaction of a stock price goal of $180 (an 70.8% increase to the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the date of grant), measured on the basis of the average of the closing prices of the Company’s common stock for either the six or twelve-month period immediately preceding September 30, 2021 (the “Okerstrom Performance Options” and together with the Cliff Vest Options, the “Okerstrom Stock Option Awards”).

The exercise price for the Okerstrom Stock Option Awards is $105.39 (the closing price of Expedia’s common stock on the date of grant), and each stock option has a seven-year term.

Upon a termination of Mr. Okerstrom’s employment by the Company without cause (other than by reason of his death or disability) or resignation by Mr. Okerstrom for good reason, the Okerstrom Stock Option Awards will vest on a pro rated basis for each full month from the date of grant to the first anniversary of the termination date and, in the case of the Okerstrom Performance Options, subject to the achievement of the stock price goal. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Expedia 2005 Plan), the Okerstrom Stock Option Awards will vest in full.

(1)	Reflects base salary earned during 2015. The amounts shown for Mr. Dzielak reflect mid-year salary adjustments described in the section above titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation Program Elements—Base Salary—2015 Changes to Mr. Dzielak’s Base Salary.”

(2)	Bonus amounts for 2015 reflect annual cash bonuses that were paid in 2016. See the section above titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation Program Elements—Cash Bonuses” for a description of the 2015 cash bonuses.

(3)

Includes aggregate grant date fair value of awards granted in the year indicated, computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. The grant date fair value of awards reflects an estimate as of the grant date and may not correspond to the actual value that will be recognized by the named executive officers. Stock Awards consist of restricted stock units valued using the closing price of Expedia common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market on the day immediately preceding the grant date. Option Awards consist of stock options valued using a Black-Scholes model, or in the case of the Performance Options granted to Mr. Khosrowshahi on March 31, 2015, the Monte Carlo valuation model was used. The Black-Scholes model incorporates various other assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rates. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock and other relevant factors. The expected term is based on our historical experience and on the terms and conditions of the stock option awards granted to employees. For option awards granted to the named executive officers during 2015, the Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo option pricing model assumptions were as follows:

2015 All Other Compensation

The following table provides additional detail regarding the amounts reflected in the “All Other Compensation” column of the 2015 Summary Compensation Table above.

(1)

Reflects the incremental cost to Expedia for personal use of corporate aircraft, including aircraft jointly owned by each of Expedia and IAC (or charter aircraft in the event either of the jointly-owned aircraft is temporarily unavailable). In 2015, the incremental cost to Expedia for Messrs. Diller and Khosrowshahi’s personal use of these aircraft is based on the average variable operating cost to Expedia. Variable operating costs include fuel, certain maintenance costs, navigation fees, onboard catering, landing fees, crew travel expenses and other miscellaneous variable costs. For the jointly-owned aircraft, the total annual variable costs are divided by the annual number of hours such aircraft flew to derive an average variable cost per hour. This average variable cost per hour is then multiplied by the hours flown for personal use (for the jointly-owned aircraft, including flights to the hangar or other locations without passengers, commonly referred to as “deadhead” flights), to derive the incremental cost. We do not include fixed costs that do not change based on usage, such as pilots’ salaries, purchase costs, insurance, scheduled maintenance and non-trip-related hangar expenses in the case of the jointly-owned aircraft, and purchase costs and management fees in the case of the fractional interest aircraft. For the fractional interest aircraft, the total annual variable costs are calculated by multiplying the hours flown for personal use by the hourly flight and fuel charges paid by the Company. Mr. Khosrowshahi reimbursed the Company for all personal use of the corporate aircraft during 2015. Executive officers occasionally have family members or other guests accompany them on business and personal trips, at minimal incremental cost to the Company. While travel by family members or other guests does not result in any incremental cost to the Company, such travel does result in the imputation of taxable income to such executive officers, the amount of which is calculated in accordance with applicable IRS regulations. See the section above titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis— Compensation Program Elements—Other Compensation” for a description of the Company’s policy regarding the personal use of Company aircraft by executive officers.

(2)

Represents matching contributions of Expedia under the Expedia 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan. Under this plan as in effect through December 31, 2015, Expedia matches $0.50 for each dollar a participant contributes, up to the first 6% of eligible compensation, subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code.

(3)

In connection with the IAC/Expedia Spin-Off, Expedia and IAC agreed that, in light of Mr. Diller’s senior role at both companies and his anticipated use of certain resources for the benefit of both companies, certain expenses associated with such usage would be shared between Expedia and IAC. Mr. Diller is provided with the use of certain automobiles for business and personal purposes and certain IAC-owned office space and IT equipment for use by certain individuals who work for Mr. Diller personally. In 2015, Expedia and IAC covered 50% and 50% of these costs, respectively.

Mr. Dzielak’s RSU award is described in further detail in the section above titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation Program Elements—2015 Equity Compensation Awards.”

These amounts reflect an estimate of the grant date fair value and may not correspond to the actual value that will be recognized by the named executive officers. For stock options, reflects the full grant date fair value, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 using a Black-Scholes option valuation methodology, except for Performance Options granted to Mr. Khosrowshahi on March 31, 2016, which uses the Monte Carlo valuation model. See footnote 3 of the “2015 Summary Compensation Table” above for more information regarding assumptions used in the Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo option pricing model.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

Certain of our employment agreements, compensation plans, and equity award agreements entitle our named executive officers to salary continuation, accelerated vesting of equity awards and other severance benefits in the event of a change in control of the Company and/or upon the termination of the executive’s employment with Expedia under specified circumstances. These plans and agreements are described below as they apply to our named executive officers on December 31, 2015.

-50-

Employment Agreement Severance Provisions

Expedia has entered into an employment agreement with each of Messrs. Dzielak, Khosrowshahi, and Okerstrom (Messrs. Diller and Kaufman do not have employment agreements with the Company), pursuant to which, in the event of such executive’s termination of employment by the Company without cause (other than by reason of his death or disability) or the executive for good reason (as defined below) and subject to the executive executing a release of claims agreement:

•

Expedia will pay an amount equal to COBRA health insurance coverage for a period of 12 months (for Messrs. Dzielak and Khosrowshahi, payable in a lump sum, and for Mr. Okerstrom, payable monthly);

•

except as described below under “Khosrowshahi 2015 Long-Term Stock Option Awards” with respect to the stock option awards granted to Mr. Khosrowshahi on March 31, 2015, all equity holdings that otherwise would have vested during the 12-month period following termination of employment will accelerate, provided that equity awards that vest less frequently than annually shall be treated as though such awards vested annually; and

•

As defined in the Dzielak, Khosrowshahi and Okerstrom employment agreements:

•

“Good reason” means the occurrence of any of the following without the executive’s consent (i) the Company’s material breach of any material provision of the executive’s employment agreement, (ii) the material reduction in the executive’s title (other than Mr. Dzielak), duties or reporting responsibilities, (iii) a material reduction in the executive’s base salary (and, in the case of Mr. Okerstrom only, total compensation opportunity), or (iv) the relocation of the executive’s principal place of employment more than 50 miles outside of the Seattle metropolitan area, in each case, following a requisite notice and cure period in favor of the Company; and

•

“Cause” means the executive’s (i) plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, conviction for, or the commission of, a felony offense, (ii) material breach of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) material breach of any of the covenants made pursuant to the executive’s employment agreement, (iv) willful or gross neglect of the material duties required by the executive’s employment agreement, or (v) knowing and material violation of any Company policy pertaining to ethics, legal compliance, wrongdoing or conflicts of interest, subject to certain qualifications.

Expedia 2005 Plan Change in Control Equity Acceleration

Pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Expedia, Inc. 2005 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan (the “Expedia 2005 Plan”), in the event of a change in control, outstanding stock options and RSUs held by each of our named executive officers, as of immediately prior to the change in control, will become fully vested and, in the case of options, fully exercisable. Any restrictions applicable to restricted stock and RSUs will lapse, and RSUs will be considered earned and payable in full and will be settled in cash or shares of Expedia common stock as promptly as practicable, except to the extent such settlement must be delayed pursuant to the rules and regulations of Section 409A of the Code.

-51-

The Expedia 2005 Plan defines a “change in control” as follows:

•

another party, other than Mr. Diller, Liberty Interactive Corporation or their respective affiliates, becomes the beneficial owner of at least 50% of the Company’s outstanding voting stock, with certain exceptions;

•

the members of the Board as of the date the Expedia 2005 Plan was adopted by the Board (the “incumbent Board members”) cease to constitute a majority of the Board (with replacement directors that are endorsed by a majority of the Company directors who are incumbent Board members generally counting as incumbent Board members);

•

the Company consummates a merger, reorganization or consolidation with another party, or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or the purchase of assets or stock of another entity (“Business Combination”), unless (A) all or substantially all of the beneficial stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such Business Combination retain more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the entity resulting from the Business Combination in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of voting stock immediately prior to such Business Combination, (B) no person (excluding Mr. Diller, Liberty Interactive Corporation and their respective affiliates, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such entity resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns 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 the Business Combination were incumbent members of the Company’s Board at the time of the initial agreement or Board action providing for such Business Combination; or

•

the Company’s stockholders approve the complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Other than new-hire grants or special equity awards, stock option and RSU awards to employees, including the named executive officers, are generally subject to incremental vesting whereby 25% of the stock option or RSU award vests and becomes exercisable in each of the four years following the grant, subject to continued service with us through each applicable vesting date (“Incremental Vesting Equity Awards”).

Incremental Vesting Equity Awards

Each of our named executive officers held Incremental Vesting Equity Awards that were unvested as of December 31, 2015. These equity awards vest as described in the section above titled “Expedia 2005 Plan Change in Control Equity Acceleration” in the event of a change in control, and as described in the section above titled “Employment Agreement Severance Provisions” in the event the executive resigns his employment for good reason or the Company terminates his employment other than for cause, death or disability.

2015 Khosrowshahi Long-Term Stock Option Awards

On March 31, 2015, Mr. Khosrowshahi was granted the following long-term equity awards:

•

an award of 1.1 million stock options that are subject to Mr. Khosrowshahi’s continued employment with the Company and satisfaction of a stock price goal of $170, measured on the basis of the average of the closing prices of the Company’s common stock for either the six or twelve-month period immediately preceding September 30, 2020 (the “Khosrowshahi Performance Options” and together with the Khosrowshahi Cliff Vest Options, the “2015 Khosrowshahi Long-Term Stock Option Awards”).

-52-

In the event Mr. Khosrowshahi resigns his employment for good reason or the Company terminates his employment other than for cause, death or disability, the 2015 Khosrowshahi Long-Term Stock Option Awards will vest on a pro-rated basis for each full month from the date of grant to the first anniversary of the termination date and, in the case of the Khosrowshahi Performance Options, subject to the achievement of the stock price goal.

For the purposes of the 2015 Khosrowshahi Long-Term Stock Option Awards only, the definition of good reason includes (in addition to the triggers included in the good reason definition described above in the section titled “Employment Agreement Severance Provisions”) the current Chairman and Senior Executive no longer serving in that or a similar role and either (i) beneficially owning equity securities representing less than 35% of the Company voting power or (ii) beneficially owning equity securities representing at least 35% of the Company voting power and another stockholder holding securities of the Company representing a greater voting power.

In the event of a Change in Control or the acquisition for cash by Liberty Interactive Corporation or any of its affiliates of beneficial ownership of 100% of the outstanding Company voting securities (as defined in the Expedia 2005 Plan), the 2015 Khosrowshahi Long-Term Stock Option Awards will vest in full.

Estimated Potential Incremental Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The table below describes and quantifies certain amounts that would become payable to our named executives upon certain terminations of employment or change in control events, assuming that the relevant event occurred on December 31, 2015. These amounts, which exclude the effect of any applicable taxes, are based on:

•

the named executive’s base salary as of December 31, 2015;

•

the number of stock options or RSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2015; and

•

the closing price of Expedia common stock on December 31, 2015 ($124.30).

-53-

These amounts are estimates of the incremental amounts that would be paid out to the executive upon such relevant event. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of the relevant event, if any. In addition to these amounts, certain other amounts and benefits generally payable and made available to other Company employees upon a termination of employment, including payments for accrued but unpaid salary, will generally be payable to named executives.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Review and Approval or Ratification of Related Person Transactions

In general, the Company will enter into or ratify a “related person transaction” only when, pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter, it has been approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Related persons include the Company’s executive officers, directors, 5% or more beneficial owners of our common stock, immediate family members of these persons and entities in which one of these persons has a direct or indirect material interest. Related person transactions are transactions that meet the minimum threshold for disclosure in the proxy statement under the relevant SEC rules (generally, transactions involving amounts exceeding $120,000 in which a related person or entity has a direct or indirect material interest). While we have no written policy, when a potential related person transaction is identified, management presents it to the Audit Committee to determine whether to approve or ratify. When determining whether to approve, ratify, disapprove or reject any related person transaction, the Audit Committee considers all relevant factors, including the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction, whether the terms are commercially reasonable and whether the related person transaction is consistent with the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

The legal and accounting departments work with business units throughout the Company to identify potential related person transactions prior to execution. In addition, the Company takes the following steps with regard to related person transactions:

•

On an annual basis, each director, director nominee and executive officer of the Company completes a Director and Officer Questionnaire that requires disclosure of any transaction, arrangement or relationship with the Company during the last fiscal year in which the director or executive officer, or any member of his or her immediate family, had a direct or indirect material interest.

•

Each director, director nominee and executive officer is expected to promptly notify the Company’s legal department of any direct or indirect interest that such person or an immediate family member of such person had, has or may have in a transaction in which the Company participates.

•

The Company performs a quarterly search of its accounts payable, accounts receivable and other databases to identify any other potential related person transactions that may require disclosure.

•

Any reported transaction that the Company’s legal department determines may qualify as a related person transaction is referred to the Audit Committee.

If any related person transaction is not approved, the Audit Committee may take such action as it may deem necessary or desirable in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Relationships Involving Significant Stockholders, Named Executive Officers and Directors.

Relationships Involving Mr. Diller

Expedia. Mr. Diller is the Chairman and Senior Executive of Expedia. Subject to the terms of an Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement between Mr. Diller and Liberty Interactive (the “Stockholders Agreement”), Mr. Diller also holds an irrevocable proxy to vote shares of Expedia common stock and Class B common stock beneficially owned by Liberty Interactive (the “Diller Proxy”). By virtue of the proxy, as well as through shares owned by Mr. Diller directly, Mr. Diller is effectively able to control the outcome of all matters submitted to a vote or for the consent of Expedia’s stockholders (other than with respect to the election by the holders of Expedia common stock of 25% of the members of Expedia’s Board of Directors and matters as to which Delaware law requires a separate class vote).

In the fall of 2015, Liberty Interactive announced its plan to spin-off to certain of its stockholders all of the shares of Liberty Interactive’s wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Expedia Holdings, Inc. (“Liberty Expedia Holdings”), whose assets at the time of the spin-off would include all of Liberty Interactive’s interest in Expedia

-56-

(the “Liberty Spin-Off”). On March 24, 2016, Mr. Diller entered into a Transaction Agreement with Liberty Interactive, Liberty Expedia Holdings, John C. Malone and Leslie Malone (the “Transaction Agreement”), under which, among other things, at the time of the Liberty Spin-off and subject to its completion, for a period of up to eighteen months (i) Mr. Diller will assign the Diller Proxy to Liberty Expedia Holdings and (ii) Mr. and Mrs. Malone will grant Mr. Diller an irrevocable proxy to vote all shares of Liberty Expedia Holdings Series A common stock and Series B common stock beneficially owned by them upon completion of the Liberty Spin-Off or thereafter (the “Malone Proxy”), in each case, subject to certain limitations. As a result, if the Liberty Spin-Off is completed and these proxy arrangements become effective, during the period the proxy arrangements are in effect, by virtue of the voting power associated with the Malone Proxy, the governance structure at Liberty Expedia Holdings and Mr. Diller’s continuing position as Chairman of Expedia’s Board of Directors, Mr. Diller will indirectly continue to control Expedia until the termination or expiration of the proxy arrangements, at which point (and by virtue of the termination of his assignment of the Diller Proxy), unless the proxy arrangements terminated as a result of Mr. Diller’s death or disability, Mr. Diller will again have the power to vote directly all shares of Expedia Common Stock and Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by Liberty Expedia Holdings.

IAC. In addition to his roles at Expedia, Mr. Diller is also the Chairman and Senior Executive of IAC., Through IAC ownership interests of Mr. Diller and his family, voting power and certain contractual rights pursuant to an amended and restated governance agreement between IAC and Mr. Diller, Mr. Diller and his family are currently in a position to influence, subject to IAC’s organizational documents and Delaware law, the composition of IAC’s Board of Directors and the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, such as mergers, business combinations and dispositions of assets, among other corporate transactions.

Relationships Involving Expedia and IAC

Overview. Since the completion of the IAC/Expedia Spin-Off in 2005, Expedia and IAC have been related parties since they are under common control. In connection with and following the IAC/Expedia Spin-Off, Expedia and IAC entered into certain arrangements, including arrangements regarding the sharing of certain costs and the use and ownership of the Company aircraft and various commercial and other relationships, certain of which are described below.

Cost-Sharing Arrangements. Expedia and IAC have agreed, in light of Mr. Diller’s senior role at both companies and his use of certain resources to the benefit of both companies, that certain expenses associated with such usage would be shared. Expenses include costs for personal use of cars and equipment dedicated to Mr. Diller’s use and expenses relating to Mr. Diller’s support staff. Expedia and IAC each cover 50% of the costs, which reflects the current allocation of actual time spent by Mr. Diller between the two companies. During 2015, IAC billed Expedia for costs in the amount of approximately $590,000 pursuant to these arrangements. Expedia also pays 50% of the costs attributable to Mr. Diller’s personal use of Company aircraft. See footnote 1 to the table above titled “2015 All Other Compensation” for information regarding personal use of Company aircraft.

Aircraft Arrangements. Each of Expedia and IAC hold a 50% ownership interest in two aircraft that may be used by both companies. Expedia and IAC share capital costs relating to each of these aircraft equally. Operating costs are shared pro rata based on actual usage and are generally paid by each company to third parties. Members of the aircrafts’ flight crews are employed by an entity in which each of Expedia and IAC has a 50% ownership interest. In 2015, total payments of $2.1 million were made to this entity by Expedia. At any time when Mr. Diller ceases to serve as Chairman of either Expedia or IAC, each party will have a put right with respect to its interest in the jointly-owned aircraft for which it is not the primary user (such determination based on relative usage of the aircraft in question during the 12 months immediately preceding such event), in each case at fair market value.

Commercial Agreements. Since the spin-off from IAC, Expedia has continued to work with some of IAC’s businesses pursuant to a variety of commercial agreements, primarily involving advertising sales services

-57-

provided by IAC businesses. For 2015, these agreements did not, individually or together with similar agreements, involve revenues to (or payments from) Expedia businesses in excess of $120,000.

Relationships Involving Expedia, Liberty Interactive and Liberty Expedia Holdings

Overview. Liberty Interactive, Expedia and Mr. Diller are parties to the Amended and Restated Governance Agreement (the “Governance Agreement”), pursuant to which Liberty Interactive has the right to nominate up to a number of directors equal to 20% of the total number of directors on the Board of Directors (rounded up to the next whole number if the number of directors on the Board is not an even multiple of five) and has certain other rights regarding committee participation, so long as certain stock ownership requirements applicable to Liberty Interactive are satisfied. The Governance Agreement also provides that if Expedia issues or proposes to issue shares of Expedia common stock or Expedia Class B common stock, Liberty Interactive has preemptive rights that generally entitle it to purchase a number of Expedia common shares, subject to a cap, so that Liberty Interactive will maintain the same ownership interest in Expedia that Liberty Interactive held immediately prior to such issuance or proposed issuance.

Preemptive Right Share Issuance. Pursuant to Liberty Interactive’s Governance Agreement preemptive rights, Expedia issued 264,841 shares of Expedia common stock to Liberty Interactive on April 21, 2015, at a price per share of $85.24 and an aggregate purchase price of approximately $23 million.

Proposed Liberty Spin-Off. In connection with the Liberty Spin-Off, it is expected that Liberty Interactive will assign and Liberty Expedia Holdings will assume, Liberty Interactive’s rights, benefits and obligations under the Stockholders Agreement and the Governance Agreement, as permitted by such agreements.

Reimbursement Agreement. In connection with the Liberty Spin-Off, on March 24, 2016, Liberty Interactive and Liberty Expedia Holdings entered into a Reimbursement Agreement with Expedia pursuant to which Liberty Interactive and Liberty Expedia Holdings have agreed to reimburse Expedia for certain costs and expenses resulting from the Liberty Spin-Off and the above-described proxy arrangements that may be incurred by Expedia with respect to Expedia’s $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility and Expedia’s senior unsecured notes maturing in 2018 and in 2020 (the “Reimbursement Agreement”). The reimbursement obligations of Liberty Interactive and Liberty Expedia Holdings are capped at $45 million, subject to certain limited exceptions, and conditioned on Expedia acting in all material respects consistent with our existing financial policies, which were previously provided to Liberty Interactive. Prior to the completion of the Liberty Spin-Off, the Reimbursement Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Following the completion of the Spin-Off, the Reimbursement Agreement will terminate upon the earliest to occur of:

•

Mr. Diller’s death, disability or in the event Mr. Diller ceases to be chairman of Expedia,

•

failure of certain reimbursement triggers to occur prior to the sixtieth day following the completion of the Liberty Spin-Off (as such period may be extended in certain limited circumstances), and

•

the date as of which Liberty Expedia Holdings and Liberty Interactive have paid all amounts due to Expedia pursuant to the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement.

The Reimbursement Agreement constitutes Expedia’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any claim arising out of any potential change of control under any contract, debt instrument, agreement or other similar instrument resulting, directly or indirectly, from the Liberty Spin-Off or the proxy arrangements.

Relationships Involving Mr. Khosrowshahi.

As discussed in the section above titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis— Other Compensation,” Mr. Khosrowshahi is encouraged to travel on Company aircraft for both business and personal use. Mr. Khosrowshahi reimbursed Expedia approximately $497,000 for personal use of Company aircraft in 2015.

ANNUAL REPORTS

Expedia’s Annual Report to Stockholders for 2015, which includes Expedia’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (not including exhibits), is available at www.Proxyvote.com. Upon written request to Expedia, Inc., 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004, Attention: Secretary, Expedia will provide, without charge, an additional copy of Expedia’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Stockholders may also review a copy of the Annual Report on Form 10-K (including exhibits) by accessing Expedia’s corporate website at www.expediainc.com or the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

HOUSEHOLDING

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (such as brokers) to send one Notice or set of printed proxy materials to any household at which two or more stockholders reside if they appear to be members of the same family or have given their written consent (each stockholder continues to receive a separate proxy card). This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” reduces the number of duplicate copies of materials stockholders receive and reduces printing and mailing costs. Only one copy of the Notice or one set of our printed proxy materials, as applicable, will be sent to stockholders eligible for householding unless contrary instructions have been provided.

Once you have received notice that your broker or the Company will be householding your materials, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or you revoke your consent. You may request a separate copy of the Notice and/or set of our printed proxy materials by sending a written request to Expedia, Inc., 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004, Attention: Secretary, or by calling (425) 679-7200.

If, at any time: (i) you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate Notice and/or set of our printed proxy materials or (ii) you and another stockholder sharing the same address wish to participate in householding and prefer to receive one Notice and/or set of our printed proxy materials, please notify your broker if you hold your shares in street name or the Company if you are a stockholder of record. You can notify us by sending a written request to Expedia, Inc., 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004, Attention: Secretary.

PROPOSALS BY STOCKHOLDERS FOR PRESENTATION AT THE 2017 ANNUAL MEETING

Any proposals of shareholders which are intended to be presented at our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders must be received by our Secretary at its principal executive offices at 333 108th Avenue N.E., Bellevue, Washington 98004, Attention: Secretary, on or before January 9, 2017 to be eligible for inclusion in our 2017 proxy statement and form of proxy. Such proposals must be submitted in accordance with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. If a shareholder intends to present a proposal at our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders without inclusion of that proposal in our 2017 proxy materials and written notice of the proposal is not received by our Secretary at our executive offices on or before March 28, 2017 or if we meet other requirements of the SEC rules, proxies solicited by the Board for our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders will confer discretionary authority on the proxy holders named therein to vote on the proposal at the meeting.

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.

(d) Award Agreements. The terms and conditions of each Award (other than any Cash-Based 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.

(iii) With respect to 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).

(ii) In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, share combination, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company or a Disaffiliation, separation or spinoff, in each case without consideration, or other extraordinary dividend of cash or other property (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 holders 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 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.

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

SECTION 4. ELIGIBILITY

Awards may be granted under the Plan to Eligible Individuals; 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).

A-6

SECTION 5. OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

(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 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 Stock Appreciation Right 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 Stock Appreciation Right granted under this Plan be amended, other than pursuant to Section 3(d), to decrease the exercise price thereof, be cancelled in exchange for cash or other Awards or in conjunction with the grant of any new Option or Stock Appreciation Right with a lower exercise price or otherwise be subject to any action that would be treated under the Applicable Exchange listing standards or for accounting purposes, as a “repricing” of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, unless such amendment, cancellation, or action is approved by the Company’s stockholders.

(e) Term. The Term of each Option and each Stock Appreciation Right shall be fixed by the Committee, but shall not exceed ten years from the Grant Date.

(f) Vesting and Exercisability. Except as otherwise provided herein, Options and Stock Appreciation Rights 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 Stock Appreciation Right 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 Stock Appreciation Right.

(g) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5, Options and Stock Appreciation Rights 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 Stock Appreciation Right 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 Stock Appreciation Right relating to no less than the lesser of the number of Shares then subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right or 100 Shares. In the case of the exercise of an Option, such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate purchase price (which shall equal the product of such number of Shares subject to such Option multiplied by the applicable

A-7

per Share 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) Payment may be made in the form of unrestricted Shares already owned by Participant (by delivery of such Shares or by attestation) of the same class as the Common Stock subject to the Option (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.

(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 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 Company 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 per Share 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 or Stock Appreciation Right 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 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 90^th 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

A-8

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 Stock Appreciation Right 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 Stock Appreciation Right, 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

(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 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 Fourth Amended and Restated Expedia, Inc. 2005 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan and an Award Agreement. Copies of such Plan and Agreement are on file at the offices of Expedia, 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

A-9

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, so long as a Restricted Stock Award remains subject to the satisfaction of vesting conditions (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 the form of Restricted Stock of the same class as the Common Stock with respect to 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, 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

(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, so long as an Award of Restricted Stock Units remains subject to the satisfaction of vesting conditions (the “RSU Restriction Period”), the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber Restricted Stock Units.

A-10

(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 and subject to Section 10(c), upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason during the RSU Restriction Period or before the applicable Performance Goals are satisfied, all Restricted Stock Units still subject to restriction shall be forfeited by such Participant; provided, however, 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. CASH-BASED AWARDS

Cash-Based Awards may be granted under this Plan. Cash-Based Awards that are Qualified Performance-Based Awards shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11 of this Plan. In addition, no Eligible Individual may be granted Cash-Based Awards that are Qualified Performance-Based Awards that have an aggregate maximum payment value in any calendar year in excess of $10.0 million. Cash-Based Awards may be paid in cash or in Shares (valued as of the date of payment) as determined by the Committee.

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), 10(e) and 14(k), 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 Cash-Based Awards) held by officers of the Company (and not the Company’s Subsidiaries) with a title of Senior Vice President 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; and

(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 Interactive 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

A-11

“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 pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (iii); or

(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 Interactive 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), 10(e) and 14(k), 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):

(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

A-12

(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).

(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.

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/or payable (as applicable) 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.

(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.

A-13

(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).

SECTION 12. TERM, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

(a) Effectiveness. The Board approved this Plan on February 29, 2016. The effective date (the “Effective Date”) of this Plan is the date that the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders.

(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 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, but no such amendment shall, 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 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.

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 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.

A-14

(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.

(g) Subsidiary Employees. In the case of a grant of an Award to any employee of a Subsidiary, 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 shall 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 as determined 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 payment to be made under any Award.
