Transition Agreement

Transition Agreement.

Role and Compensation. Beginning on October 31, 2022 and ending on January 1, 2023 (the “Transition Period”), you will be employed by Tripadvisor as Senior Vice President, Finance and Chief Executive of Viator, TheFork and Cruise Critic at your current base salary and shall be responsible for facilitating the transition to a new Chief Financial Officer and such other duties and responsibilities as are assigned to you by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

Benefits. While you are employed during the Transition Period, you will continue to be eligible to participate in the employee benefit plans made available by the Company from time to time to its employees generally, subject to plan terms and generally applicable Tripadvisor policies.

Equity. Your employment during the Transition Period will be treated as continued employment by Tripadvisor for purposes of any Tripadvisor equity plan, and all existing equity grants will continue to vest pursuant to their vesting schedules and the applicable Equity Incentive Plan. Any vested performance-based restricted stock units will settle in accordance with the appliable Restricted Stock Unit Agreements.

Termination.

Separation Date. Your resignation shall be effective and your employment shall terminate on January 1, 2023 (the “Separation Date”). For the avoidance of doubt, should you voluntarily resign prior to the Separation Date, then you will not receive the benefits described in Sections 2(c) and (d).

Resignation. You hereby resign from your position as Chief Financial Officer of Tripadvisor, Inc., effective October 31, 2022, and from all positions as an officer or director held with Tripadvisor, Inc. and all of its affiliates and subsidiaries, effective as of the Separation Date. You agree to sign and return such documents confirming the resignations as the Company or any of its subsidiaries may reasonably request.

Bonus. Although you will not be employed by the Company at the time that 2022 corporate bonuses are paid, and therefore, not eligible under the Company’s general plan for bonuses, the Company agrees to provide you with a 2022 corporate bonus payout based on company performance (as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Tripadvisor, Inc.) and individual performance, provided that you do not resign or the Company does not terminate your employment with Cause (as defined in the Tripadvisor, Inc. 2018 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”)) prior to the end of the Transition Period. The bonus payment, less required withholding taxes or other similar governmental payments or charges, will be made at the same time that the 2022 earned corporate bonuses are paid to Tripadvisor employees generally.

Equity. Provided that you do not resign or the Company does not terminate your employment with Cause prior to the end of the Transition Period, your equity awards, as set forth in Exhibit A, that are based on, or in the form of, Tripadvisor, Inc. equity (e.g. restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options or similar instruments) (“Equity Awards”), that are time-based and that are outstanding and unvested as of the Separation Date, but that would have vested from January 2, 2023 through May 30, 2023 had your employment continued through this period, shall accelerate and vest as of the Separation Date. The restricted stock units will settle in accordance with the terms of the Tripadvisor, Inc. Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. Stock options that have vested as of the Separation Date, including those with accelerated vesting as set forth in this Section 2(d), shall remain exercisable through the date that is the earlier of (1) December 31, 2024 or (2) the expiration date of the relevant stock option.

Post-Employment Consulting. You and the Company agree to enter into a consulting agreement, covering the period of January 2, 2023 to March 31, 2023, on mutually agreeable terms (the “Consulting Services Agreement”), prior to the Separation Date.

Medical and Dental Benefits. Except for any right you have to continue participation in Tripadvisor’s group health and dental plans under COBRA, all employee benefits shall terminate in accordance with the terms of the applicable benefit plans as of the Separation Date.
