BELLEVUE, Washington, August 15, 2007 — Expedia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EXPE) today announced the final results of its modified “Dutch auction” tender offer for up to 25 million shares of its common stock, which expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 8, 2007.

Expedia has accepted for purchase 25,000,003 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $29.00 per share, including “odd lots” properly tendered and not properly withdrawn at or below the $29.00 per share purchase price, for a total cost of approximately $725 million, excluding fees and expenses relating to the tender offer. Expedia is borrowing $500 million under its existing credit facility to fund a portion of the purchase price for the shares and will use cash on hand for the remainder of the purchase price and to pay related fees and expenses.

The 25,000,003 shares accepted for purchase include the 25,000,000 shares that Expedia offered to purchase plus three shares, as to which Expedia exercised its right to purchase additional shares in accordance with applicable securities laws, to permit proper rounding in the calculation of the proration factor. Expedia has been informed by the depositary for the tender offer that the final proration factor for the tender offer is 84.2385%.

Based on the final count by the depositary for the tender offer (and excluding any conditional tenders that were not accepted due to the specified condition not being satisfied), 29,725,349 shares of common stock were properly tendered and not properly withdrawn at prices at or below the purchase price of $29.00.

The depositary will promptly issue payment for the shares accepted for purchase in the tender offer. Any shares properly tendered and not withdrawn, but not purchased due to proration or conditional tenders, will be returned promptly to stockholders by the depositary.
