Item 2.03.    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As previously disclosed, Expedia Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are party to a $2 billion revolving credit facility established pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 5, 2014 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”). On March 18, 2020, the Company borrowed $1.9 billion under the Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Loan”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Revolving Loan matures on May 31, 2023 and bears interest at a per annum rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus a spread that varies based on the Company’s senior unsecured non-credit-enhanced long-term debt ratings (which spread is currently 1.125%).
The Revolving Loan was undertaken as a precautionary measure to provide increased liquidity and preserve financial flexibility in light of current disruption and uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak. The proceeds from the Revolving Loan will be available to be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict, including the Risk Factors identified in the Company’s most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K. The use of words such as “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and “will,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. However, these words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Unless required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, readers should carefully review the reports and documents the Company files or furnishes from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.
