Explanation of Responses:

1. As previously disclosed in the Form 4/A filed June 17, 2016, Liberty TripAdvisor, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person, ("Counterparty") entered into a variable forward sale transaction with a trade date of June 6, 2016 ("Forward Contract") with an unaffiliated third party buyer ("Buyer"), as further described in the Remarks section.

2. On November 19, 2019, Counterparty and Buyer entered into an agreement to unwind and terminate the Forward Contract (the "Unwind Agreement"). On December 17, 2019, the Forward Contract was unwound in full and terminated. Pursuant to the terms of the Unwind Agreement, Counterparty paid Buyer a total of approximately $199,232,100 and, upon termination of the Forward Contract, Buyer returned to Counterparty the 7,000,000 shares of TripAdvisor common stock that Counterparty pledged to Buyer under the Forward Contract.

Remarks:

The Forward Contract obligated Counterparty to deliver to Buyer up to 7,000,000 shares of TripAdvisor common stock (the "Number of Shares") over a 20 trading day period starting on May 13, 2020 (or, at Counterparty's election, an equivalent amount of cash based on the arithmetic average of the VWAP prices of the shares over the same period). Under the terms of the Forward Contract, Counterparty received a prepayment of approximately $258,940,500. Counterparty pledged 7,000,000 shares of TripAdvisor common stock (the "Pledge Shares") to secure its obligations under the Forward Contract, and retained dividend and voting rights in the Pledge Shares during the term of the pledge. The Forward Contract provided that the number of shares of TripAdvisor common stock that Counterparty would be obligated to deliver to Buyer at the end of the Forward Contract would be determined as follows: (a) if the Settlement Price of TripAdvisor common stock was less than $38.9025 (the "Floor Price"), Counterparty would deliver all of the Pledge Shares; (b) if the Settlement Price was between the Floor Price and $98.9625 (the "Cap Price"), Counterparty would deliver a number of Pledge Shares equal to the Floor Price divided by the Settlement Price multiplied by the Number of Shares; and (c) if the Settlement Price was greater than the Cap Price, Counterparty would deliver a number of Pledge Shares equal to the Floor Price plus the Settlement Price minus the Cap Price divided by the Settlement Price multiplied by the Number of Shares.
