        <footnote id="F1">On March 9, 2020, Liberty TripAdvisor, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Reporting Person (&quot;Counterparty&quot;), entered into an agreement establishing the terms and conditions of a variable forward transaction (the &quot;Forward Contract&quot;) with an unaffiliated third party buyer (&quot;Buyer&quot;). On March 13, 2020, Buyer ended the initial hedging period and the number of shares of TripAdvisor, Inc. (the &quot;Issuer&quot;) common stock (&quot;Common Stock&quot;) subject to the Forward Contract was set at 2,422,210 (the &quot;Number of Shares&quot;) and the initial share price was set at $19.1707 pursuant to the terms of the Forward Contract, as further described in &quot;Remarks&quot; below. On December 19, 2024, the Forward Contract settled and the Reporting Person elected to settle its delivery obligations under the Forward Contract by physical settlement, resulting in delivery of the full Number of Shares to Buyer and received from Buyer a final payment of $602,404.</footnote>
    </footnotes>

    <remarks>The Forward Contract obligated Counterparty to deliver to Buyer up to the Number of Shares over a specified period (the &quot;Valuation Period&quot;). Alternatively, Counterparty may have chosen to deliver an equivalent amount of cash based on a measure of the average share price for the Common Stock over the Valuation Period. In exchange for assuming this obligation, Counterparty received a prepayment amount of approximately $34,246,160 in March 2020, increased by an additional $5,050,340 as a result of a previously reported amendment to the Forward Contract. Counterparty agreed to pledge 2,422,210 shares of Common Stock (the &quot;Pledge Shares&quot;) to secure its obligations under the Forward Contract, and retained voting rights in the Pledge Shares during the term of the pledge.</remarks>
