2 Safe Harbor July 2014 Forward-Looking Statements. This presentation contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s expectations as of April 30, 2015 and assumptions which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. The use of words such as "intends" and “expects,” among others, generally identifies forward-looking statements. However, these words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements and may include statements relating to future revenues, expenses, margins, profitability, net income / (loss), earnings per share and other measures of results of operations and the prospects for future growth of Expedia, Inc.’s business. Actual results and the timing and outcome of events may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, among others: an increasingly competitive global environment; modifications to our current business models and practices or our adoption of new business models or practices in order to compete; changes in search engine algorithms and dynamics or other traffic-generating arrangements; declines or disruptions in the travel industry; our failure to maintain and expand our relationships and contractual agreements with travel suppliers or travel distribution partners; our failure to maintain and expand our brand awareness or increased costs to do so; our failure to adapt to technological developments or industry trends; risks relating to our operations in international markets, including China; adverse application of existing tax or unclaimed property laws, rules or regulations or implementation of new unfavorable laws, rules or regulations; adverse outcomes in legal proceedings to which we are a party; our failure to comply with current laws, rules and regulations, or changes to such laws, rules and regulations; determinations by U.S. and foreign tax authorities regarding our worldwide tax provision for income taxes; payments related risks, including credit card fraud; volatility in our stock price; liquidity constraints or our inability to access the capital markets when necessary; interruption or lack of redundancy in our information systems; failure to retain or motivate key personnel or hire, retain and motivate qualified personnel, including senior management; changes in control of the Company; management and director conflicts of interest; risks related to actions taken by our business partners and third party service providers, including failure to comply with our requirements or standards or the requirements or standards of governmental authorities, or any cessation of their operations; risks related to the failure of counterparties to perform on financial obligations; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; our failure to comply with governmental regulation and other legal obligations related to our processing, storage, use and disclosure of personal data, and liabilities related to security breaches; risks related to our acquisitions, investments or significant commercial arrangements; risks related to our long-term indebtedness; our failure to effectively operate our businesses due to restrictive covenants in the agreements governing our indebtedness; our failure to protect our intellectual property from copying or use by others, including competitors; and other risks detailed in Expedia, Inc.’s public filings with the SEC, including our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking or other statements in this presentation, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
