San Francisco, CA 94105

Dear Pete,

As we have discussed, in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among Zillow, Inc. (“Zillow”), Trulia, Inc. (the “Company”) and Zillow Group, Inc. (formerly, Zebra Holdco, Inc.), your position as CEO of the Company will be terminated immediately following the filing of Trulia, Inc.’s form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, as we anticipate that you will remain an employee of the Company through August 1, 2015 (the “Termination Date”), this Transition Employment Letter (the “Transition Letter”) is to memorialize the terms and conditions of your employment between the date hereof and the Termination Date. The terms of this transition letter are effective upon the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement and supplement your Employment Agreement with the Company (the “Employment Agreement”) and any subsequent agreement with the Company. Specifically, you are still bound by the Employment Agreement.

To indicate your acceptance, please sign and date this Transition Letter in the space provided below and return it to me. This Transition Letter may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement, signed by an officer of the Company and by you.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Rich Barton

Chairman, Zillow Group, Inc.

AGREED AND ACCEPTED:

/s/ Pete Flint

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, the Company and Employee hereby agree as follows:

COVENANTS

1. Recitals. The Recitals set forth above are expressly incorporated into this Agreement.

2. Consideration. Unless the Company terminated Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined in Employee’s Employment Agreement), Employee shall be entitled to the following:

a. Continued Employment. The Company agrees to permit Employee to remain an employee from June 1, 2015 through the Termination Date and therefore remain on the Company’s payroll at Employee’s base salary in effect on the Notice Date (“Continued Employment Pay”) and as a participant in the Company’s health benefit plans and continue vesting in Employee Stock through the Termination Date. If Employee starts a new job prior to August 1, 2015, employment with the Company will terminate and Employee will be paid out any remaining Continued Employment Pay in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices.

b. Separation Payment. The Company agrees to pay Employee the lump sum total of $121,153.85 less applicable withholdings (such payment being the “Separation Payment”). The Separation Payment is equivalent to 15 weeks’ of Employee’s base salary as in effect on the Notice Date. The Company shall pay the Separation Payment to Employee in the first payroll cycle after the Effective Date of this Agreement, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices.

c. COBRA. In the event that Employee elects to continue health insurance coverage under COBRA or applicable state law after the Termination Date, the Company shall pay the monthly premium necessary to provide continued medical health insurance coverage currently in effect for Employee (and the health insurance coverage currently in effect for Employee’s eligible dependents) pursuant to COBRA or applicable state law for up to 18 months following the Termination Date. Thereafter, Employee will be responsible for the costs of any further health insurance coverage.

3. Benefits. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Employee agrees that Employee’s participation in all benefits and incidents of employment, including, but not limited to, vesting in Employee Stock, and the accrual of bonuses, vacation, and paid time off, cease as of the Termination Date.

4. Payment of Salary and Receipt of All Benefits. Employee acknowledges and represents that, other than the consideration set forth in this Agreement, the Company has paid or provided, or will provide by the Termination Date all salary, wages, bonuses, accrued vacation/paid time off, premiums, leaves, housing allowances, relocation costs, interest, severance, outplacement costs, fees, reimbursable expenses, commissions, stock, stock options, vesting, and any and all other benefits and compensation due to Employee. Employee specifically represents that Employee is not due to receive any commissions or other incentive compensation from the Company other than as set forth in this Agreement.

5. Release of Claims. Employee agrees that the foregoing consideration represents settlement in full of all outstanding obligations owed to Employee by the Company and its current and former officers, directors, employees, agents, investors, attorneys, shareholders, administrators, affiliates, benefit plans, plan administrators, insurers, trustees, divisions, and subsidiaries, and predecessor and successor corporations and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”). Employee, on Employee’s own behalf and on behalf of Employee’s respective heirs, family members, executors, agents, and assigns, hereby and forever releases the Releasees from, and agrees not to sue concerning, or in any manner to institute, prosecute, or pursue, any claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, demand, or cause of action relating to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Employee may possess against any of the Releasees arising from any omissions, acts, facts, or damages that have occurred up until and including the Effective Date of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

a. any and all claims relating to or arising from Employee’s employment relationship with the Company and the termination of that relationship;

b. any and all claims relating to, or arising from, Employee’s right to purchase, or actual purchase of shares of stock of the Company, including, without limitation, any claims for fraud, misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty under applicable state corporate law, and securities fraud under any state or federal law;

c. any and all claims for wrongful discharge of employment; termination in violation of public policy; discrimination; harassment; retaliation; breach of contract, both express and implied; breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing, both express and implied; commission payments; promissory estoppel; negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress; fraud; negligent or intentional misrepresentation; negligent or intentional interference with contract or prospective economic advantage; unfair business practices; defamation; libel; slander; negligence; personal injury; assault; battery; invasion of privacy; false imprisonment; conversion; and disability benefits;

d. any and all claims for violation of any federal, state, or municipal statute, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Equal Pay Act; the Fair Labor Standards Act; the Fair Credit Reporting Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act; the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; the Immigration Control and Reform Act; the California Family Rights Act; the California Labor Code; the California Workers’ Compensation Act; the California Fair Employment and Housing Act; and any other similar statutes, regulations or laws;

e. any and all claims for violation of the federal or any state constitution;

f. any and all claims arising out of any other laws and regulations relating to employment or employment discrimination;

g. any claim for any loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of any dispute over the non-withholding or other tax treatment of any of the proceeds received by Employee as a result of this Agreement; and

h. any and all claims for attorneys’ fees and costs.

Employee agrees that the release set forth in this section shall be and remain in effect in all respects as a complete general release as to the matters released. This release does not extend to (i) any obligations incurred under this Agreement, (ii) any claims for indemnification that Employee may have under any indemnification agreement with the Company and (iii) any claims for coverage under any D&O or other similar policy maintained by the Company. This release does not release claims that cannot be released as a matter of law, including, but not limited to, Employee’s right to file a charge with or participate in a charge by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any other local, state, or federal administrative body or government agency that is authorized to enforce or administer laws related to employment, against the Company (with the understanding that any such filing or participation does not give Employee the right to recover any monetary damages against the Company; Employee’s release of claims herein bars Employee from recovering such monetary relief from the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee acknowledges that any and all disputed wage claims that are released herein shall be subject to binding arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, except as required by applicable law. Employee represents that Employee has made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, demand, cause of action, or other matter waived or released by this section.

6. Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA. Employee acknowledges that Employee is waiving and releasing any rights Employee may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary. Employee agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled. Employee further acknowledges that Employee has been advised by this writing that: (a) Employee should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (b) Employee has forty five (45) days within which to consider this Agreement; (c) Employee has seven (7) days following Employee’s execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement; (d) this Agreement shall not be effective until after the revocation period has expired; and (e) nothing in this Agreement prevents or precludes Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law. In the event Employee signs this Agreement and returns it to the Company in less than the 45-day period identified above, Employee hereby acknowledges that Employee has freely and voluntarily chosen to waive the time period allotted for considering this Agreement. Employee acknowledges and understands that revocation must be accomplished by a written notification to the person executing this Agreement on the Company’s behalf that is received prior to the eighth day after Employee signs this Agreement. The parties agree that changes, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the 45-day period. Employee further acknowledges that, contemporaneously with receipt of this Agreement, Employee received the disclosure of information related to severance benefit program included with this Agreement (the “OWBPA Disclosure”).

7. California Civil Code Section 1542. Employee acknowledges that Employee has been advised to consult with legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

Employee, being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights Employee may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect.

8. No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that Employee has no lawsuits, claims, or actions pending in Employee’s name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any of the other Releasees. Employee also represents that Employee does not intend to bring any claims on Employee’s own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any of the other Releasees.

9. Confidentiality. Employee agrees to maintain in complete confidence the existence of this Agreement, the contents and terms of this Agreement, and the consideration for this Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Separation Information”). Except as required by law, Employee may disclose Separation Information only to Employee’s immediate family members, the Court in any proceedings to enforce the terms of this Agreement, Employee’s attorney(s), Employee’s legal counsel ,and Employee’s accountant and any professional tax advisor to the extent that they need to know the Separation Information in order to provide advice on tax treatment or to prepare tax returns, and must prevent disclosure of any Separation Information to all other third parties. Employee agrees that Employee will not publicize, directly or indirectly, any Separation Information.

10. Trade Secrets and Confidential Information/Company Property. Employee reaffirms and agrees to observe and abide by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, specifically including the provisions therein regarding nondisclosure of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information, and nonsolicitation of Company employees. Employee acknowledges that during the course of Employee’s employment with the Company Employee had access to a number of highly confidential materials and Employee specifically represents that Employee shall refrain from using any such confidential information in the future. Employee affirms that Employee has returned all documents and other items provided to Employee by the Company, developed or obtained by Employee in connection with Employee’s employment with the Company, or otherwise belonging to the Company.

11. No Cooperation. Employee agrees that Employee will not knowingly encourage, counsel, or assist any attorneys or their clients in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the Releasees, unless under a subpoena or other court order to do so or as related directly to the ADEA waiver in this Agreement. Employee agrees both to immediately notify the Company upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order, and to furnish, within three (3) business days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or other court order. If approached by anyone for counsel or assistance in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints against any of the Releasees, Employee shall state no more than that Employee cannot provide counsel or assistance.

12. Nondisparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel, or slander of any of the Releasees, and agrees to refrain from any tortious interference with the contracts and relationships of any of the Releasees. Employee agrees to refrain from making, either directly or indirectly, any negative, damaging or otherwise disparaging communications concerning the Company or its services to any of the clients of the Company. Employee shall not use any Company information that is confidential either under applicable law or the Confidentiality Agreement to which Employee had access during the scope of Employee’s employment with the Company in order to communicate with or solicit any of the Company’s current or prospective clients. Employee shall direct any inquiries by potential future employers to the Company’s human resources department, which shall use its best efforts to provide only the Employee’s last position and dates of employment.

13. Breach. In addition to the rights provided in the “Attorneys’ Fees” section below, Employee acknowledges and agrees that any material breach of this Agreement, or of any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement, shall entitle the Company immediately to recover and/or cease providing the consideration provided to Employee under this Agreement and to obtain damages, except as provided by law.

14. No Admission of Liability. Employee understands and acknowledges that this Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of any and all actual or potential disputed claims by Employee. No action taken by the Company hereto, either previously or in connection with this Agreement, shall be deemed or construed to be (a) an admission of the truth or falsity of any actual or potential claims or (b) an acknowledgment or admission by the Company of any fault or liability whatsoever to Employee or to any third party.

15. Application for Employment. Employee understands and agrees that, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, and as a condition of this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to any employment with the Company, its subsidiaries, or any successor, and Employee hereby waives any right, or alleged right, of employment or re-employment with the Company.

Exhibit B

Corporate Governance Guidelines of the Board of Directors of Zillow Group, Inc.

ZILLOW GROUP, INC.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE GUIDELINES

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Zillow Group, Inc. (the “Company”) has developed these corporate governance guidelines (the “Guidelines”) to help it to fulfill its responsibilities to the Company and its shareholders. The Guidelines should be applied in a manner consistent with all applicable laws and stock market rules and the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended and in effect from time to time. The Guidelines are intended to serve as a flexible framework for the conduct of the Board’s business and not as a set of legally binding obligations. The Board may modify or make exceptions to the Guidelines from time to time in its discretion and consistent with its duties and responsibilities to the Company and its shareholders.

The Board oversees and reviews management activities and advises on long-term and strategic issues, all with a view to enhancing the long-term value of the Company to the shareholders. Among its many activities, the Board oversees the Company’s business affairs and integrity, performs an annual evaluation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, oversees management succession planning, and assesses Company risks and strategies for risk mitigation. The Board is accountable to the shareholders of the Company, but recognizes that the long-term interests of shareholders are advanced by responsibly addressing the concerns of other stakeholders, including employees, consumers, customers, suppliers, government and the public. In all actions taken by the Board, the directors are expected to exercise their business judgment in what they reasonably believe to be in the best interests of the Company.

1. Board Size. The Board fixes the size of the Board within the range specified in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. The Nominating and Governance Committee periodically reviews the size of the Board, with the goal that the size of the Board be sufficient to maintain needed expertise and independence without becoming too large to function efficiently or effectively.

2. Selection of Directors. The Company’s Board is divided into three classes of approximately equal size. The term of office for each class is staggered such that the term of office for one class expires each year. Each year, the shareholders of the Company elect directors to a three-year term for the class whose term is expiring by a plurality of the votes cast at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee screens and recommends director nominees to the Board, and the Board in turn recommends director nominees for election by the Company’s shareholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee considers qualified director candidates recommended by shareholders, provided such recommendations are made in compliance with the advance notice provisions of the Company’s bylaws and other applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. The criteria used by the Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee for the selection of directors are set forth in the charter of the Nominating and Governance Committee.

3. Board Composition – Independent Directors. A majority of the Company’s directors shall be independent. The Board applies the director independence standards included in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market (or any other listing requirements applicable to the Company from time to time) to determine director independence. The Board shall make an affirmative determination regarding the independence of each director annually, based upon the recommendation, advice, and information of the Nominating and Governance Committee.

4. Term Limits. The Company does not have term limits for directors. While mandatory turnover would provide fresh viewpoints to the Board, term limits have the compelling disadvantage of losing the contribution of directors who have unique insight into and important historical perspective on the Company’s business and operations.

5. Circumstances Requiring Tender of Resignation. When a director, including any director who is currently an officer or employee of the Company, resigns or materially changes his or her position with his or her employer or becomes aware of circumstances that may adversely reflect upon the director or the Company, such director should notify the Nominating and Governance Committee of such circumstances. The Nominating and Governance Committee will review the continued appropriateness of service under the circumstances, including a review of the ability of such director to give independent advice to the Company and to fully meet the responsibilities of a director, and may in certain cases consider requesting that the director submit his or her resignation from the Board.

6. Service on Other Boards. The Company encourages directors to serve as directors of other companies so that the Company can benefit from the experience, perspective and knowledge of best practices garnered from such positions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, directors shall limit the number of other company boards on which he or she serves so that he or she is able to devote adequate time to his or her duties to the Company, including preparing for and attending meetings. Further, no member of the Audit Committee of the Board may serve on more than three audit committees of publicly traded companies (including the Audit Committee of the Company) at the same time. Directors should advise the Chairman of the Board and the Chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on another public company board.

7. Stock Ownership. The Company encourages directors to own shares of the Company’s capital stock. However, the number of shares of the Company’s capital stock owned by any director is a personal decision and, at this time, the Board has chosen not to adopt a policy requiring ownership by directors of a minimum number of shares.

8. Chair of the Board. The Board does not have a policy as to whether the offices of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer should be separate.

1. Frequency. The Board shall meet at regularly scheduled meetings no less than four (4) times a year and conduct additional special meetings as necessary to supplement the regularly scheduled meetings. Directors are encouraged to attend all Board meetings, as well as the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, except if unusual circumstances make attendance impractical.

2. Advance Distribution of Materials. The meeting agenda and written materials relevant to the Board’s understanding of matters to be discussed at an upcoming Board meeting shall be distributed to directors in advance, whenever feasible and appropriate. Each director should review such materials prior to the meeting to facilitate the efficient use of meeting time. Any materials not available in advance shall be provided to each director at the meeting. When appropriate, sensitive subjects may be discussed at a meeting without distribution of materials to the Board.

3. Executive Sessions of Independent Directors. The independent directors of the Company shall periodically meet in executive session.

4. Access to Senior Management and Employees. The Board shall have access to Company employees to ensure that directors can ask all questions and glean all information necessary to fulfill their duties. Management is encouraged to invite Company staff to any Board meeting at which their presence and expertise would help the Board have a full understanding of matters being considered, and are persons that management believes should be given exposure to the Board. Directors should exercise judgment to ensure that their contact with management does not distract managers from their jobs or disturb the business operations of the Company.

5. Access to Independent Advisors. The Board and each of its standing committees shall have the resources, authority and funding (which will be provided by the Company) to retain such outside accounting, legal and other professional advisors as it deems appropriate without management approval.

1. Number and Type of Committees. The Board currently has three standing committees. They are a Compensation Committee, an Audit Committee and a Nominating and Governance Committee. The Board may, from time to time, form a new committee or disband a current committee depending on the circumstances. Each committee complies with the independence and other requirements established by applicable law, regulations and listing requirements applicable to the Company from time to time.

2. Committee Charters. Each committee shall have a charter that is approved by the Board. Each Committee will undertake an annual review of its charter, and will work with the Board to make such revisions as are considered appropriate.

3. Composition of Committees. The Nominating and Governance Committee shall be responsible for recommending to the Board the directors to be appointed to each committee of the Board. The Board shall appoint committee members and committee chairs according to criteria that it determines to be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders, taking into account the views of the Nominating and Governance Committee.

4. Committee Meetings. The chair of each committee shall be responsible for developing, together with committee members and relevant Company managers, the committee’s general agenda and objectives and for setting the specific agenda for committee meetings. The chair and committee members shall determine the frequency of committee meetings consistent with the committee’s charter.

1. Evaluation of Senior Executives. The Compensation Committee shall be responsible for overseeing the annual evaluation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers.

2. Management Succession Planning. The Nominating and Governance Committee shall develop guidelines for and monitor management succession planning.

3. Evaluations of Board and Director Performance. The Nominating and Governance Committee shall establish, coordinate and review with the Chair of the Board criteria and methods for at least annually evaluating the effectiveness of the Board and its committees.

1. Compensation for Non-Employee Directors. The Compensation Committee shall periodically review the compensation of non-employee directors and make recommendations to the Board for appropriate changes.

2. Employee Directors. Directors who are also employees of the Company, including a subsidiary, shall receive no additional compensation for Board or committee service.

1. Director Orientation and Continuing Education. Each new director shall receive an orientation designed to educate the new director about the industry, the Company and the Board. The Company strongly encourages and supports continuing education for directors.

2. Communications with Shareholders and Others. The Board will give appropriate attention to written communications that are submitted to the Board by shareholders and other parties, and will respond if and as appropriate. All communications to the Board shall be in written form, addressed to the Board or to one or more individual members of the Board, and sent care of the Secretary of the Company, at the address of the Company’s principal executive offices or via email to ***@***.

3. Board Interaction with Media, Institutional Investors and Others. Management, and not the Board or individual directors, should normally speak for the Company. Individual directors may meet or otherwise communicate with the Company’s various constituencies when appropriate, but only with the knowledge of the Chair of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer, and, in most instances, at the request of the Chair of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer (except in those rare cases when a member of a Board committee may be required to communicate with third parties without the knowledge of the Chair of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer, as may be advised by counsel).

4. Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Directors must abide by the relevant provisions of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

5. Review of Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Nominating and Governance Committee shall periodically review these Guidelines and recommend appropriate changes to the Board.
