What items will I be voting on and what are the Board’s voting recommendations?

Proposal			Board’s Voting Recommendation
No. 1: Election of Directors (see page 43)			“FOR” each nominee
No. 2: Appointment of Independent Auditors and Authorization of the Audit Committee to determine the Independent Auditors’ Remuneration (see page 44)			“FOR”
No. 3: Advisory Approval of the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers (see page 46)			“FOR”

Could other matters be decided at the Meeting?

The Board of Directors is not aware of any other matters to be brought before the Meeting. However, if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, the individuals named as proxies, or their duly constituted substitutes acting at the Meeting, will be authorized to vote or otherwise act thereon in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

How many votes do I have?

You will have one vote for every common share, par value $0.0025 each of the Company (the “Common Shares”), you owned as of the close of business on April 13, 2017 (the “Record Date”).

How many votes can be cast by all shareholders?

124,155,173 votes, consisting of one vote for each of the Company’s Common Shares that were issued and outstanding on the Record Date. There is no cumulative voting, and the holders of the Common Shares vote together as a single class.

How many votes must be present to hold the Meeting?

Two or more persons representing in person or by proxy in excess of 50% of the total issued and outstanding Common Shares entitled to vote at the Meeting, or 62,077,587 votes, must be present, at the start of the Meeting, in person or by proxy, to constitute a quorum at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

How many votes are required to elect directors and adopt the other proposals?

Proposal	Vote Requirement	Impact of Abstentions
No. 1: Election of Directors	Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast. The eight nominees receiving the most votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, shall be elected as directors, and an absolute majority of the votes cast shall not be a prerequisite to the election of such directors.	Not counted as votes cast “for” or “against” and will have no effect on the outcome
No. 2: Appointment of Independent Auditors and Authorization of the Audit Committee to Determine the Independent Auditors’ Remuneration	Majority of the votes cast of the Common Shares present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote	Not counted as votes cast “for” or “against” and will have no effect on the outcome
No. 3: Advisory Approval of the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers	Majority of the votes cast of the Common Shares present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote	Not counted as votes cast “for” or “against” and will have no effect on the outcome

A broker non-vote occurs when a broker does not have discretion to vote on a particular proposal and the broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner of the Common Shares as to how to vote on such proposal. If you hold your Common Shares in “street name” and do not provide voting instructions to your broker within the required time frame before the Meeting, your Common Shares will not be voted by the broker for Proposal Nos. 1 or 3 but the broker will have the discretion to vote your Common Shares on Proposal No. 2. As a result, broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal Nos. 1 or 3.

Why did certain shareholders receive in the mail a one-page notice regarding Internet availability of this Proxy Statement rather than a printed copy?

Board Composition

Our Board currently consists of eight directors. Our bye-laws provide that our Board shall consist of such number of directors being not less than two directors and not more than fifteen directors as the Board may from time to time determine. The authorized number of directors may be changed by resolution of our Board. Vacancies on our Board can be filled by resolution of our Board. Each director elected to the Board serves a one-year term, ending at the next annual general meeting or until his or her successor is elected or appointed or their office is otherwise vacated.

Director Independence

To determine director independence, our Board reviews commercial and charitable relationships of each director to evaluate such director’s independence in accordance with the listing standards of the NYSE and pursuant to our own director independence criteria. In conducting its review, the Board considers a number of factors, including the director’s and his or her family members’ relationships with the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, executive officers and auditors and his or her relationships with foundations, universities and other non-profit organizations to which we have made a certain level of contributions during the past three years.

After evaluating the factors described above, the Board has affirmatively determined that all of our current directors other than Mr. Wilson are independent in accordance with NYSE corporate governance listing standards and our own director independence criteria.

We also maintain an Audit Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Compensation Committee, and all of the directors serving on these committees are independent based upon NYSE corporate governance listing standards and our own director independence criteria.

Board of Directors Meetings

Our Board held five in-person and three telephonic meetings during 2016. In 2016, all directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and committees of the Board on which they served. We expect all directors to attend each regularly scheduled Board meeting. Attendance of our directors at the Company’s annual general meeting of shareholders is strongly encouraged, and our goal is for a representative of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to be present at each annual general meeting. The 2016 annual general meeting of shareholders was attended by seven directors, including the chairman of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Board Executive Sessions

The non-management directors of the Board regularly meet alone without any members of management being present. Our Chairman, Mr. Steenland, presides at these executive sessions.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee provides assistance to the Board in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations in matters involving our accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal control and legal compliance functions by approving the services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm and reviewing their reports regarding our accounting practices and systems of internal accounting controls, including those under Sarbanes-Oxley.

Our Audit Committee is also responsible for the review, approval or ratification of “related-person transactions” between us or our subsidiaries and related persons. See “Related Party Transactions—Review, Approval or Ratification of Related Person Transactions.”

The current composition of the Audit Committee is Michael Durham, Scott Forbes and Douglas Hacker, with Michael Durham serving as the chairman.

Director Nomination Procedures

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the appropriate balance of experience, skills and characteristics required of members of the Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider written proposals from shareholders for candidates to be nominees for director positions. In considering candidates submitted by shareholders, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will take into consideration the needs

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of the Board and the qualifications of the candidate. Any such proposal should be submitted to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o the Corporate Secretary of the Company, at Travelport Worldwide Limited, Axis One, Axis Park, Langley, Berkshire, SL3 8AG, United Kingdom and should include the following: (a) the name of the shareholder and evidence of such shareholder’s beneficial ownership of Common Shares, including the number of Common Shares beneficially owned and the length of time of such beneficial ownership; and (b) the name of the candidate, such candidate’s resume or a listing of his or her qualifications to be a director of the Company and such candidate’s consent to be named as a director, if selected by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, nominated by the Board and elected. The written proposal should be submitted in the time frame and consistent with the requirements described in the bye-laws of the Company and under the caption “Shareholder Proposals for 2018 Annual General Meeting” below.

The process for identifying and evaluating candidates to be nominated to the Board is initiated by identifying a candidate who meets the criteria for selection as a nominee and has the specific qualities or skills being sought based on input from members of the Board and, if the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems appropriate, a third-party search firm which would help the Board to identify candidates. These candidates are evaluated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee by reviewing such candidates’ biographical information and qualifications and checking the candidates’ references. Qualified candidates are interviewed by at least one member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Using the input from this interview and other information, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates whether the candidate is qualified to serve as a director and whether the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee should recommend to the Board that the Board nominate the candidate or appoint the candidate to fill a vacancy on the Board. Candidates recommended by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are presented to the Board for selection as nominees to be presented for the approval of the shareholders or for appointment to fill a vacancy. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee expects that a similar evaluation process will be used to evaluate candidates to be nominees for director positions recommended by shareholders. However, to date, we have not received any shareholder proposal to nominate a director.

Role of Our Board in Risk Oversight

One of the key functions of our Board is informed oversight of our risk management process. Our Board administers this oversight function directly through our Board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of our Board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, and our Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. The Audit Committee also has the responsibility to review with management the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken, monitor compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and review with our independent auditors the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for periodically evaluating our corporate governance policies and system in light of the governance risks that we face and the adequacy of our policies and procedures designed to address such risks. Our Compensation Committee is responsible for assessing and monitoring whether any of our compensation policies and programs are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Our Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors and administers our executive compensation policies and programs. None of the members of our Compensation Committee were officers or employees of the Company or any of our subsidiaries or had any relationships requiring disclosure by us under Item 404 of the SEC’s Regulation S-K during 2016 or before.

Corporate Governance

We have a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our officers, directors and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. In addition, we have a Code of Ethics for Senior Managers. Our Code of Business Conduct and

Our Chairman will relay the communication to the full Board, director group or individual director, as appropriate. From time to time, the Board may change the process for shareholder communication with the Board or its members. You should refer to the “Investor Center—Governance” section of our website at www.travelport.com for any changes in this process.

Whistleblower Hotline

Limitations of Liability and Indemnification Matters

Section 98 of the Companies Act 1981, as amended, of Bermuda provides generally that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability which by virtue of any rule of law would otherwise be imposed on them in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, except in cases where such liability arises from fraud or dishonesty of which such director, officer or auditor may be guilty in relation to the company. Section 98 further provides that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability incurred by them in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is awarded in their favor or in which they are acquitted or granted relief by the Supreme Court of Bermuda pursuant to Section 281 of the Companies Act.

We have adopted provisions in our bye-laws that provide that we will indemnify our officers and directors in respect of their actions and omissions, except in respect of their fraud or dishonesty. Our bye-laws provide that the shareholders waive all claims or rights of action that they might have, individually or in right of the Company, against any of our directors or officers for any act or failure to act in the performance of such director’s or officer’s duties, except in respect of any fraud or dishonesty of such director or officer. Section 98A of the Companies Act permits us to purchase and maintain insurance for

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the benefit of any officer or director in respect of any loss or liability attaching to him or her in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, whether or not we may otherwise indemnify such officer or director. We have purchased and maintain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy for such a purpose.

In addition, we and one or more of our subsidiaries have entered into agreements that indemnify our directors, executive officers and certain other employees. Such agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as our directors and executive officers.

As of the date of this Proxy Statement, we are not aware of any pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents where indemnification will be required or permitted, nor are we aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that might result in a claim for indemnification.

Information concerning such non-GAAP financial measures, including a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures, is set forth in Appendix A to this Proxy Statement, together with certain definitions.

Compensation Practices

Since the time of our IPO in September 2014, our Compensation Committee has continuously been working on implementing compensation practices that are best practice for public companies:

What We Do			What We Don’t Do
✓ Compensation at-risk. Our executive compensation program is designed so that a significant portion of compensation is “at risk” based on the Company’s performance over the long and short-term, and more than half of the compensation opportunity for our executive officers is equity-based in order to properly align the interests of our executive officers and shareholders. We also cap incentive compensation opportunities to manage risk-taking. ✓ Performance-based incentives. We use performance-based annual (cash-based) and long-term (equity) incentives, each with different performance metrics. ✓ Multi-year vesting requirements. The equity awards granted to our executive officers vest or are earned over multi-year periods, consistent with current market practice and our retention objectives. ✓ Share ownership policy. Our share ownership policy requirements are five times base annual salary for our President and CEO and three times base annual salary for our other Named Executive Officers. ✓ Clawback policy. We have a compensation recovery policy (also referred to as a “clawback” policy) for applicable executives, including our Named Executive Officers. ✓ Independent Compensation Committee consultant. The Compensation Committee has engaged its own compensation consultant to assist with the review and analysis of our executive compensation program. This consultant performs no other consulting or other services for the Company.			X No pension plans. We do not currently offer, nor do we have plans to provide, defined benefit pension or retirement plans or arrangements to our executive officers. X No tax reimbursements. We do not provide any tax reimbursement payments (including “gross-ups”) on any perquisites, other personal benefits (other than standard relocation benefits) or on any severance or change-in-control payments or benefits. X No special health or welfare benefits. Our executive officers participate in broad-based company-sponsored health and welfare benefits programs generally on the same basis as our other full-time employees. X Hedging and pledging prohibited. Our insider trading policy prohibits our executive officers and members of our Board of Directors from hedging or pledging any of their Travelport common shares. X No stock option repricings. We prohibit the repricing of outstanding options to purchase our common shares without prior shareholder approval. X No single trigger vesting upon a change in control. We do not automatically accelerate unvested equity grants upon a change in control, as our award agreements contain a double trigger provision, i.e. require a covered termination following a change in control. X No dividends on unvested performance or other share units. We do not pay dividends on performance share units (“PSUs”) or restricted share units (“RSUs”) before shares are vested.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

2016 Compensation Actions

We took the following actions with respect to the 2016 compensation of our Named Executive Officers:

•

We compensate our Named Executive Officers primarily in performance-based compensation with an emphasis on equity-based compensation:

•

In 2016, we resumed an annual equity grant schedule, following grants made in September 2014 at the time of the IPO and no regular annual grants in 2015;

•

The 2016 equity grants emphasized performance-based vehicles with 25% in stock options and 50% in performance share units tied to three year cumulative adjusted income per share (diluted) (which we refer to as “earnings per share” or “EPS”) growth goals, with additional potential upside based on exceeding a target goal;

•

Our 2016 bonus payout level was driven by our Adjusted Operating Income results, and was funded at 86% of target, reinforcing that performance goals for the year were challenging; and

•

As part of our overall philosophy to emphasize performance-based and market-based pay, we did not increase salaries for any Named Executive Officers.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

We have strived to create an executive compensation program that provides both short-term and long-term payments and awards in order to:

•

attract and retain talent from within the highly competitive global marketplace;

•

ensure a performance-based delivery of pay that aligns our Named Executive Officers’ rewards with our shareholders’ interests;

•

compensate our Named Executive Officers in a manner that incentivizes them to manage our business to meet our long-term objectives;

•

compensate our Named Executive Officers in a manner commensurate with their and our performance; and

•

promote a long-term commitment to us.

To achieve these goals, we have implemented a program consisting of (i) base annual salary; (ii) annual performance cash bonus; and (iii) significant long-term incentive awards with a mix of time and performance related vesting conditions. In addition, we provide certain perquisites and other benefits that are more fully described below. The vesting conditions attached to our equity awards — which require three or more years of service for full vesting, with a material part of such awards subject to performance-based vesting — foster and promote a long-term commitment to us while incentivizing our executive officers to drive value, which reflects two of our core philosophies. In addition, executive officers are required to own a significant number of our common shares, which further aligns our executives’ long-term interests with our shareholders. Details of our share ownership guidelines are provided below under “Share Ownership Policy.”

Compensation Process

Our Compensation Committee reviews and approves the compensation of our Named Executive Officers and oversees and administers our executive compensation programs and initiatives. In discharging these functions, our Compensation Committee has historically taken into account multiple factors, including information (such as market data) provided by third-party compensation consultants and others, as well as our Chief Executive Officer’s judgment and knowledge of our industry. Our Chief Executive Officer annually reviews each other executive officer’s (including our Named Executive Officers) performance with the Compensation Committee and recommends appropriate base salary, cash performance awards and grants of long-term incentive awards for all other executive officers.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Compensation Committee annually reviews our Chief Executive Officer’s performance and total compensation based on its assessment of his performance with input from any consultants we or the Compensation Committee engage. During 2016, the Compensation Committee met outside the presence of our executive officers with regard to discussions specifically addressing our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation. For all other Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee met outside the presence of our executive officers except our Chief Executive Officer.

The Compensation Committee has retained Pay Governance, LLC (“Pay Governance”) as its independent compensation consultant to advise the Compensation Committee on matters relating to the amount and form of executive and director compensation. At the Compensation Committee’s request, Pay Governance prepared analyses and reports on market pay for our Named Executive Officers and information on trends and policies relating to compensation, including the selection of our peer group, as set forth in more detail below. In addition, Pay Governance provided advice on the drafting of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this Proxy Statement. Pay Governance attends meetings, as appropriate, at the invitation of the Compensation Committee, and meets with our management from time to time to collect pay data and information about the business. To ensure the independence of Pay Governance, the Compensation Committee annually reviews its work and relationship. During 2016, Pay Governance did not perform any additional services for the Company or any of its affiliates.

To ensure we understand the external labor market and competitive pay environment, we have historically reviewed information on competitive pay levels for our Named Executive Officers using compensation surveys and compared our compensation against a range of public companies in our industry. In connection with our IPO, the Compensation Committee agreed upon a selected peer group of comparable companies to review for competitive pay and practice information. Pay Governance assisted with this process of peer group selection. The peer group was developed by considering companies of similar revenue size and projected market capitalization to ours within similar business sectors. We use the peer group information, focused on the levels approximating the median, as one factor in establishing pay levels. Although we believe external market data is very useful, we will also consider other factors such as previous experience, future potential, and performance in establishing pay levels.

In early 2016, in consultation with Pay Governance, the Compensation Committee reviewed the 14 company peer group that was developed in connection with our IPO, in part because of the acquisitions of AOL Inc. and Concur Technologies, Inc. (which reduced the peer group to 12 companies after their removal from the peer group), and determined that the peer group should be expanded to include nine additional companies, resulting in the following peer group of 21 companies:

•

ACI Worldwide, Inc.

•

Alliance Data Systems Corporation

•

Blackhawk Network Holdings, Inc.

•

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc.

•

Citrix Systems, Inc.

•

CoreLogic, Inc.

•

DST Systems Inc.

•

Equinix, Inc.

•

Fiserv, Inc.

•

Global Payments Inc.

•

Groupon, Inc.

•

Heartland Payment Systems, Inc.

•

Jack Henry & Associates Inc.

•

Moneygram International Inc.

•

Paychex, Inc.

•

Sabre Corp.

•

SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc.

•

Synopsys Inc.

•

Total System Services, Inc.

•

Vantiv, Inc.

•

VeriFone Systems, Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Compensation Committee used the foregoing peer group for decisions it made in 2016, including the grants of long-term incentive awards that were made to our Named Executive Officers in March 2016, and intends to use this peer group for decisions going forward.

Elements of Compensation and Pay Mix

We use the particular elements of compensation described below because we believe that they provide a well-proportioned mix of secure compensation, retention value and at-risk compensation that produces short-term and long-term performance incentives and rewards and incentivizes our executive officers for superior operational performance and creating value for our shareholders. The mix of metrics used for our annual performance bonus and long-term incentive program likewise provides an appropriate balance between different metrics, as well as short-term and long-term performance. The following is a description of our ongoing compensation elements for our Named Executive Officers and the objectives they are designed to support. In total, these elements support the objective to balance rewards between short-term results and the long-term strategic decisions needed to ensure sustained business performance over time. We note that these elements represent our ongoing compensation program, including long-term incentives.

Compensation Element

Description

Connection to Objectives

Base Annual Salary

A fixed level of compensation for the year; used to define short-term incentive compensation opportunities.

Provide a competitive baseline of pay.

Annual Bonus

The bonus is intended to provide competitive annual performance-based opportunity tied to the achievement of key goals within our annual business plan.

Each executive has a target bonus that is a percentage of his or her base annual salary, and all of our Named Executive Officers have a target bonus of 100% of his base annual salary (with the exception of Mr. Wilson, our President and CEO, whose target bonus is 150% of his base annual salary).

Actual incentive payments are driven by business performance against financial and operational metrics, as described in more detail below, as well as individual performance.

Each executive who is eligible for our annual bonus plan can earn up to 200% of his/her target bonus for over-performance against financial and operational metrics, once funding targets are achieved.

Reward strong short-term business performance achievements.

Vary cash-based compensation based on individual, Company and business/function results.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Compensation Element

Description

Connection to Objectives

Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP)

In 2016, our typical LTIP mix was:

•

25% in RSUs with time-based vesting over four years;

•

50% (at target) in PSUs with time and performance-based vesting based on three year cumulative EPS results as compared with EPS goals; and

•

25% in stock options with time-based vesting over four years.

Align a significant amount of executive compensation with strong longer-term business performance and share price appreciation such that 75% of typical LTIP mix delivers value based on the Company’s performance.

Total compensation is based both on retention and the Company’s performance (e.g. EPS growth for the PSUs and share price appreciation for stock options to have value) that aligns shareholder and executive interests.

Other Executive Benefits and Perquisites

We provide for limited benefits and perquisites, including those that are market practice and those required by law, that are generally available to other employees.

Our United States (“US”) and United Kingdom (“UK”) employees are generally eligible for broader employee benefit plans, such as medical and employee share purchase plans. In addition, our Named Executive Officers are eligible for certain other benefits and perquisites, including defined contribution plans (including a 401(k) plan in the US and defined contribution pension plans in the UK); cash contributions in lieu of defined contribution plans in the UK due to changes in UK tax rules (for Mr. Wilson only); deferred compensation plan (US only); travel allowance (for Mr. Wilson only); car allowance (UK only); family cover for private medical insurance (UK only); financial planning (UK only); and relocation and related expenses such as housing benefits (when applicable).

Balance the desire to maintain limited perquisites with the need to attract and retain highly qualified executives.

Based on UK and US market norms.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

As an example of our Named Executive Officer pay mix, the chart on the left hand side below shows the mix of compensation for our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, Mr. Wilson, using his base annual salary, target annual incentive bonus and the 2016 equity grant (using the grant date fair value), but excluding perquisites. The chart on the right hand side below provides similar information for our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Wilson, using the same methodology. These charts use the December 31, 2016 exchange rate for cash compensation for UK executives, as detailed in footnote (10) to the Summary Compensation Table below.

[MISSING IMAGE: t1700624_pie-average.jpg]

Base Salary

We believe that a competitive base annual salary is essential in attracting and retaining key executive talent. The Compensation Committee has reviewed the base salaries of our Named Executive Officers and made adjustments to reflect, among other factors, each Named Executive Officer’s level of experience, responsibilities, expected future contributions to our success and market competitiveness. The base annual salary established for each of our Named Executive Officers is intended to reflect each individual’s responsibilities, experience, prior performance and other discretionary factors deemed relevant by our Compensation Committee. Base annual salary is also designed to provide our Named Executive Officers with steady cash flow during the course of the fiscal year that is not contingent on short-term variations in our corporate performance. Our Compensation Committee determines the appropriate base annual salary, usually after a review of market data and discussions with our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to the Chief Executive Officer’s salary), taking into account our Named Executive Officers’ experience with reference to the base salaries of similarly-situated executives in our peer group.

The base salaries paid to our Named Executive Officers for 2016 are set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below. We did not change the base annual salaries for our Named Executive Officers in 2016. Due to strengthening of the US dollar as of December 31, 2016 as compared to December 31, 2015, the cash-based compensation to our UK-based Named Executive Officers, including their base salaries, appears to be lower in 2016 as compared with 2015.

Annual Bonus

Our Compensation Committee has the authority to award annual cash bonuses to our executive officers, which are subject to our performance bonus plan. The annual cash bonuses are intended to reward

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the achievement of corporate performance objectives. Our annual bonus program satisfies our goal of incentivizing our executive officers to achieve, and rewarding them for achieving, primarily annual financial metrics important to the success of our business.

Generally, at the commencement of an executive officer’s employment with us, our Compensation Committee, after discussion with our Chief Executive Officer, sets a target level of bonus compensation that is structured as a percentage of such executive officer’s base annual salary. In this regard, the employment agreements for our Named Executive Officers specifically provide that the target bonus percentage for Mr. Wilson is 150% of his base annual salary and, for Messrs. Bot, Shurrock, Minetola and Murphy, is 100% of their base annual salary. Our Named Executive Officers can each earn up to 200% of their target bonus if the performance targets established by the Compensation Committee are exceeded.

Our annual bonus program for 2016 was primarily formulaic and was awarded to our Named Executive Officers based on achievement of specified Adjusted Operating Income and key operational metrics. However, our Compensation Committee does retain the discretion to change any bonus paid on an evaluation of a Named Executive Officer’s individual performance. For 2017, the funding of our annual bonus plan will also be based on Adjusted Operating Income. In addition, payment will continue to be based on key operational and financial metrics, as well as individual performance.

For our 2016 annual bonus program, we established threshold, target and stretch figures of Adjusted Operating Income and corresponding bonus pool funding figures. Our target Adjusted Operating Income was $345 million, and our actual Adjusted Operating Income was $341 million, which resulted in a payout of 86% of target bonus for our Named Executive Officers, as approved by our Compensation Committee. The table below illustrates how our bonus plan worked for 2016:

2016 Bonus Plan: Funding Targets and Results

	Adjusted Operating Income: % of Target		Total Adjusted Bonus Pool Funded: % of Target
Adjusted Operating Income: Funding Targets
$328 million (Threshold)		95%		40%
$345 million (Target)		100%		100%
$390 million (Stretch)		113%		200%
Adjusted Operating Income: Actual
$341 million		—		86%

The bonus calculations for our Named Executive Officers for 2016, which are also set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below, were as follows:

Named Executive Officer	Base Salary (US$)			Target Bonus (%)		Bonus Payment (% of Target)		2016 Bonus (US$)
Gordon A. Wilson – President, CEO and Director		$	679,690(1)		150%		86%		$	876,800
Bernard Bot – EVP and CFO		$	463,425(1)		100%		86%		$	398,546

Long-Term Incentives

Equity-Based Compensation

We believe that equity-based compensation is an important component of our executive compensation program and that providing a significant portion of our Named Executive Officers’ total compensation

TABLE OF CONTENTS

package in equity-based compensation aligns the incentives of our Named Executive Officers with the interests of our shareholders and with our long-term corporate success. In addition, our Compensation Committee believes that equity-based compensation awards enable us to attract, motivate, retain and adequately compensate executive talent by providing competitive levels of compensation tied to our long-term value creation.

The Compensation Committee carefully considered the best approach for long-term incentive opportunities as a public company. Our long-term incentive program grants are made pursuant to our Amended and Restated 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Equity Plan”) and are designed to achieve the following objectives:

•

Be primarily performance-based;

•

Use a mix of vehicles to recognize a combination of share price and operating performance;

•

Provide an appropriate pay opportunity focused on our long-term, versus short-term, success; and

•

Align executive interests with shareholder interests.

In 2016, the Compensation Committee awarded equity grants to each of our Named Executive Officers, including new hire grants to Messrs. Bot and Shurrock.

Size of Grants

The size of the 2016 grants was established after reviewing total compensation and grant sizes for the peer group, as well as considering the individual performance, potential and experience of each member of the senior management team who received a grant. Awards for our Named Executive Officers were as follows, as set forth in more detail in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards During 2016” table below:

Name	2016 Target Grant Value
Gordon A. Wilson		$	4,100,000
Bernard Bot		$	1,500,000
Stephen Shurrock		$	1,515,000
Matthew Minetola		$	950,000
Thomas Murphy		$	850,000

Types of Equity Vehicles Used

Our 2016 equity LTIP grants generally followed the RSU/PSU/stock option structure and mix outlined above. This equity mix was selected to provide a balanced grant that reflects operating performance, share price growth and retention as follows:

•

50% of the value of the grant in the form of PSUs, which are tied to three year cumulative EPS goals. We have provided for threshold, target and stretch EPS goals with corresponding vesting percentages at 50%, 100%, and 200%, respectively, and interpolation between threshold and target performance and between target and stretch performance;

•

25% of the value of the grant in the form of stock options (the fair value of stock options is determined at the grant date, using certain assumptions and applying the Black-Scholes option valuation method) vesting in equal installments over four years; and

•

25% of the value of the grant in the form of time-based RSUs vesting in equal installments over four years.

With certain supplemental and new hire awards, we have deviated from this structure when the situation warranted doing so. For example, Mr. Bot’s new hire award was split between PSUs (60%) and RSUs (40%) because we negotiated a different structure with him as part of his hiring, and thus did not follow the mix above. The LTIP mix provided upon hire to Mr. Bot is similar to our LTIP mix starting with our 2017 annual grants, which is intended to create a stronger executive focus on long-term EPS goals.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Starting with our 2017 annual grants, the Compensation Committee revised the structure and mix of our equity grant by granting only PSUs and RSUs (i.e. we did not grant stock options) in a 75%/25% combination, with the PSU vesting based on three year cumulative EPS results with a total shareholder return (TSR) modifier. The Compensation Committee believes that, going forward, this is a more appropriate mix to balance talent retention and motivate long-term financial performance.

Timing of Equity Awards

Our Compensation Committee makes annual equity grants to executives and other key employees in the first quarter of each year, as reflected in our annual grants made to our Named Executive Officers on March 15, 2016. We made equity grants to Messrs. Bot and Shurrock in the first quarter of 2016, but at the time of their hire. We do, however, anticipate some limited off-cycle equity grants for new-hire, promotion and retention.

Results of PSUs Granted in 2014 and 2015

In connection with our IPO in September 2014 or shortly thereafter, we granted PSUs that vest on October 15, 2017, subject to the executive’s continued employment with us through the vesting date and other terms and conditions in the award agreement, based on our aggregate 2015-2016 EPS results compared to goals established by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee established threshold, target and stretch goals for the PSUs based on our aggregate 2015-2016 EPS results, as set forth in the table below:

Performance Level	Aggregate 2015-16 Adjusted EPS	Vesting Percentage
Threshold	$1.76	50%
Target	$1.96	100%
Stretch	$2.16	200%
• Performance below threshold will result in 0% vesting.
• Performance above stretch will result in 200% vesting.
• For performance between threshold and target, or between target and stretch, the vesting percentage will be determined by straight-line interpolation.

Our aggregate 2015-2016 cumulative actual EPS results was $2.23 which will result in 200% vesting (i.e. stretch) on October 15, 2017, subject to the terms set forth above.

Other Executive Benefits and Perquisites

Our Named Executive Officers participate in broad-based welfare and retirement programs on substantially the same basis as other eligible employees, and they are eligible to participate in the 2014 Employee Share Purchase Plan. In addition, in 2016, we provided financial planning (UK only); deferred compensation (US only); pension contributions and/or cash contributions in lieu of pension contributions (UK only); car allowance (UK only); family cover for private medical insurance (UK only); relocation benefits and housing allowance (Mr. Bot only); and a travel allowance (Mr. Wilson only), although some of these benefits are legacy benefits that apply only to Mr. Wilson as the only Named Executive Officer who was hired prior to our IPO.

None of our Named Executive Officers receive benefits under a defined benefit pension plan. We do, however, provide for limited deferred compensation arrangements, with matching contributions by us in some circumstances, for US executives.

We believe these benefits are generally consistent with those offered by other companies, and, specifically, with those companies with which we compete for employees, in the applicable jurisdictions in which our Named Executive Officers are employed.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Employment Agreements and Severance and Change of Control Benefits

We believe that a strong, experienced management team is essential to our and our shareholders’ best interests. We have entered into employment or other written agreements with our Named Executive Officers (which are market practice in the UK, where the majority of our Named Executive Officers are based) in order to outline their terms and conditions of employment, including notice periods (or pay in lieu of notice) and/or severance pay, as applicable. In addition, the award agreements that govern our equity grants provide for accelerated vesting in certain circumstances, which would occur only if the executive officer’s employment with us is terminated by us without cause or the executive resigns as the result of a constructive termination (and, in certain cases described below, are enhanced following a change in control). Certain restrictive covenants are also provided commensurate with these payments to protect the Company. These benefits are enumerated and quantified in the sections captioned “Employment Agreements” and “Potential Payments Upon Termination of Employment and/or Change in Control” below. We do not provide “golden parachute” tax gross-ups.

Risk Assessment

In approving annual bonus and long-term incentive awards for our Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee assesses the risks associated with the adoption of these awards, including the performance measures and goals for the awards. For 2016, we have determined that any risks arising from our compensation programs and policies are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. Our compensation programs and policies are intended to mitigate risk by combining performance-based, long-term compensation elements with payouts that are highly correlated to the value delivered to shareholders. The combination of performance measures for the annual bonus (which are capped) and our equity compensation programs and share ownership guidelines for executive officers, as well as the multi-year vesting schedules for equity awards encourage employees to maintain both a short and a long-term view with respect to our performance.

Other Compensation Policies

We have adopted several policies that we believe are important components of a public-company executive compensation program, which are generally described below.

Share Ownership Policy

We have a share ownership policy that requires our directors and key employees, including our Named Executive Officers, to have significant share ownership in us. The share ownership policy requires that each Named Executive Officer holds our common shares with a value equal to or greater than three times base annual salary, except in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, who is required to have holdings of our common shares with a value equal to or greater than five times his base annual salary. Our share ownership policy generally allows a relevant director or key employee five years to attain the relevant ownership threshold, so all of our Named Executive Officers (with the exception of Mr. Wilson, who complied with the relevant ownership threshold effective upon our IPO) are still in this transition period. The Compensation Committee believes that this share ownership policy aligns the financial interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders.

Compensation Recovery Policy

We have a general compensation recovery (“clawback”) policy covering our annual and long-term incentive award plans and arrangements paid to our executive officers and certain other executives in advance of the final SEC rules implementing Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Act. Our clawback policy is administered by the Compensation Committee and provides that, in the event of an accounting restatement of our consolidated financial statements due to our material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirements, the Compensation Committee has the discretion to require recoupment of up to three years of such compensation for the period covered by such restatement.

Derivatives Trading and Hedging Policies

Our insider trading policy limits the timing and types of transactions in our securities by our employees, officers, including our Named Executive Officers and Section 16 officers, and members of our Board. Among other restrictions, our insider trading policy:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

provides that no employee, officer, or member of our Board may acquire, sell, or trade in any put option or call option or engage in any short sale, including a short sale “against the box,” or trade in any call or other derivative on our securities, as well as any other derivative or hedging transactions on our securities;

•

prohibits our executive officers and members of our Board from pledging any of their common shares as collateral for a loan or other financial arrangement; and

•

allows certain officers, including our Named Executive Officers and Section 16 officers, members of our Board and certain employees to trade in our securities only during open trading window periods and only after they have pre-cleared such trades.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Section 162(m) Compliance

Section 162(m) of the United States Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) generally disallows public companies a tax deduction for federal income tax purposes of more than $1 million of compensation paid to the chief executive officer and each of the three other most highly-compensated executive officers (other than the chief financial officer) in a taxable year. Currently, we only have one executive officer based in the US to whom Section 162(m) applies. Compensation above $1 million may generally be deducted if it is “performance- based compensation” within the meaning of the Code. Since our IPO, we have generally relied upon certain transition relief under Section 162(m). To the extent such transition relief is inapplicable, however, in approving the amount and form of compensation for our US executive officers (of which there is currently only one), the Compensation Committee considers all elements of the cost to us of providing such compensation, including the potential impact of Section 162(m). The Compensation Committee believes that the potential deductibility of the compensation payable under those plans and arrangements should be only one of a number of relevant factors taken into consideration, and not the sole governing factor. As a result, the Compensation Committee reserves the discretion to approve compensation arrangements that may not be tax deductible for us, such as base salary, cash incentive awards tied to our financial performances or equity incentive awards with time-based vesting requirements, or which do not comply with an exemption from the deductibility limit, when it believes that such arrangements are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent.

“Golden Parachute” Payments

Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code provide that executive officers and directors who hold significant equity interests may be subject to an excise tax if they receive payments or benefits in connection with a change in control that exceeds certain prescribed limits, and that we, or a successor, may forfeit a deduction on the amounts subject to this additional tax. During 2016, we did not provide any executive officer, including any Named Executive Officer, with a “gross-up” or other reimbursement payment for any tax liability that he or she might owe as a result of the application of Sections 280G or 4999, and we have not agreed, and are not otherwise obligated, to provide any Named Executive Officer with such a “gross-up” or other reimbursement.

Accounting for Share-Based Compensation

We follow Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standard Codification Topic 718 (“FASB ASC Topic 718”) for our share-based compensation awards. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure the compensation expense for all share-based payment awards, including stock options, made to employees based on the grant date “fair value” of these awards. This calculation is performed for accounting purposes and reported in the compensation tables below, even though our executive officers may never realize any value from their awards. FASB ASC Topic 718 also requires companies to recognize the compensation cost of their share-based compensation awards expected to vest in their income statements over the period that an executive officer is required to render service in exchange for the equity awards and, when applicable, the performance criteria is probable to be achieved.

retain our then-employed Named Executive Officers, including Mr. Wilson. The awards under this program vested semi-annually over three years (2013 – 2015), with 12.5% of the award eligible for vesting in each of the first four semi-annual vesting dates (in 2013 and 2014) and 25% eligible for vesting in each of the last two semi-annual vesting dates (in 2015), in each case subject to Mr. Wilson’s continued employment with us and our compliance with our debt covenants. Payments to Mr. Wilson in respect of the 2013 LTMIP during 2014 and 2015 were also converted into British pounds at the time of payment; those amounts are converted back into US dollars in the table above using the exchange rates at the end of applicable year since the payments were made prior to the applicable year’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Grants of Plan-Based Awards During 2016

On March 15, 2016, our Compensation Committee approved grants of RSUs, PSUs and stock options under the Omnibus Equity Plan to Messrs. Wilson, Minetola and Murphy. Mr. Shurrock received an award of RSUs, PSUs and stock options upon the commencement of his employment effective January 4, 2016. Mr. Bot received an award of RSUs and PSUs upon the commencement of his employment effective January 1, 2016.

The time-based RSUs will vest annually in four equal installments, the PSUs will cliff vest in three years based on our achievement of a cumulative three-year EPS goal that was established at the time of the grant and will have the possibility of an additional 100% vesting of the grant of such PSUs based on the achievement of a stretch EPS goal that was also established at the same time, and the stock options (using the method set forth above under Types of Equity Vehicles Used) will vest annually in four equal installments, each subject to and on the terms and conditions set forth in the award agreements. These grants were denominated in a total dollar value that was converted into a number of RSUs and PSUs based

TABLE OF CONTENTS

upon the closing price on the business day immediately prior to the grant date and a number of stock options, using the Black-Scholes option valuation method. The grants to Messrs. Wilson, Murphy, Minetola and Shurrock were allocated 25%, 50% and 25% into RSUs, PSUs and stock options, respectively, while the grant to Mr. Bot was allocated between PSUs (60%) and RSUs (40%), as explained above.

(1)

As noted in footnote (7) to the Summary Compensation Table above, these amounts reflect our 2016 annual performance-based bonus plan.

(2)

The PSUs granted in 2016 will be eligible to vest based on our achievement as compared to threshold (50%), target (100%) and stretch (200%) EPS goals set by the Compensation Committee, with pro-rata vesting if between threshold and target performance or between target and stretch performance.

(3)

These amounts reflect the grant date fair value of the award computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. See footnotes (2) and (6) to the Summary Compensation Table above. As noted in footnote (5) to the Summary Compensation Table above, due to nominal rounding to the nearest share and/or option, the sums of the 2016 Stock and Options Awards in this Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table are not precisely the same as the figures in the “Size of Grants” table above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section.

(4)

The RSUs granted in 2016 vest over four years in equal annual installments.

(5)

The PSUs granted in 2016 will be eligible to vest on April 15, 2019, with the vesting percentage to be based on our achievement of EPS goals. In the table above, the compensation expense for the PSUs awarded during 2016 is based on the assumption of achieving target performance, which would result in vesting of 100% of the PSUs. We have reflected vesting of 159% of such PSUs in our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

(6)

The stock options granted in 2016 vest over four years in equal annual installments.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Employment Agreements

We have employment or other written agreements with each of our Named Executive Officers, which supersede all prior understandings regarding their employment. Written employment agreements are market practice in the UK, where four of our Named Executive Officers are based. We have also granted our Named Executive Officers equity-based awards. The severance arrangements for our Named Executive Officers are described below under “— Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control.”

Gordon A. Wilson, President and Chief Executive Officer

Travelport International Limited, our wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary, entered into a service agreement with Mr. Wilson on May 31, 2011 (as amended on November 7, 2012) in connection with Mr. Wilson’s assumption of the role of President and Chief Executive Officer. The service agreement continues until it is terminated by either party giving to the other at least 12 months prior written notice. If full notice is not given, we will pay base salary and benefits in lieu of notice for any unexpired period of notice, regardless of which party gave notice of termination. Mr. Wilson is eligible for a target annual bonus of 150% of his base annual salary. Mr. Wilson’s current base annual salary is £550,000.

Bernard Bot, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

Travelport International Limited, our wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary, entered into a contract of employment with Mr. Bot effective January 1, 2016. Mr. Bot’s employment agreement with us continues until it is terminated by us giving at least 12 months prior written notice or Mr. Bot giving us six months prior written notice. If full notice is not given, we will pay base salary in lieu of notice for any unexpired period of notice, regardless of which party gave notice of termination. Mr. Bot is eligible for a target annual bonus of 100% of his base annual salary. Mr. Bot’s current base annual salary is £375,000.

Stephen Shurrock, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer

Travelport International Limited, our wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary, entered into a contract of employment with Mr. Shurrock effective January 4, 2016.

Restrictive Covenants

As a result of the restrictive covenants contained in their employment agreements and/or equity award agreements, each of the Named Executive Officers has agreed not to disclose, or retain and use for his own benefit or benefit of another person our confidential information. Each Named Executive Officer has also

agreed not to directly or indirectly compete with us, not to solicit our employees or clients, engage in, or directly or indirectly manage, operate, or control or join our competitors, or compete with us or interfere with our business or use his status with us to obtain goods or services that would not be available in the absence of such a relationship to us. Each equity award agreement provides that these restrictions are in place during their employment and for two years thereafter. In the case of Messrs. Wilson, Bot, Shurrock and Murphy, the restrictions contained in their employment agreements are effective during their employment and for a period of 12 months thereafter. Should we exercise our right to place Messrs. Wilson, Bot, Shurrock or Murphy on “garden leave,” the period of time that they are on such leave will be subtracted from and thereby reduce the post-termination length of time that they are subject to these restrictive covenants in their employment agreement.

In addition, each of the Named Executive Officers has agreed to grant us a perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, and assignable and sub-licensable license over all intellectual property rights that result from their work while employed with us.

The vesting events reflected in this table include the October 15, 2016 vesting of RSUs granted in 2014 (for Messrs. Wilson and Minetola) and 2015 (for Mr. Murphy). Messrs. Bot and Shurrock did not have any equity awards that vested in 2016. None of our Named Executive Officers exercised any vested stock options in 2016.

Pension Benefits in 2016

None of our Named Executive Officers are currently participating in a defined benefit plan sponsored by us or our subsidiaries and affiliates.

Non-qualified Deferred Compensation in 2016

All amounts disclosed in this table relate to our Travelport Officer Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). The Deferred Compensation Plan allows certain executives in the US to defer a portion of their compensation until a later date (which can be during or after their employment), and to receive an employer match on their contributions. In 2016, this compensation included base salary, deal/transaction bonuses, discretionary bonuses and annual bonuses, and the employer match was 100% of employee contributions of up to 6% of the relevant compensation amount. Each participant can elect to receive a single lump payment or annual installments over a period up to 10 years.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In contrast to the Summary Compensation Table and other tables that reflect amounts paid in respect of fiscal year 2016, the table below reflects deferrals and other contributions occurring in 2016 regardless of the year for which the compensation relates, i.e. the amounts below include amounts deferred in 2016 in respect of 2015 but not amounts deferred in 2017 in respect of 2016.

Messrs. Wilson, Bot, Shurrock and Murphy participate in a UK defined contribution pension scheme that is similar to a 401(k) plan and, therefore, are not included in this table because they are not eligible for the Deferred Compensation Plan.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Accrued Pay and Regular Retirement Benefits. The amounts shown in the table above do not include payments and benefits to the extent they are provided on a non-discriminatory basis to our salaried employees generally upon termination of employment, such as:

•

accrued base salary and vacation pay (if applicable);

•

earned but unpaid bonuses; and

•

distributions of plan balances under our 401(k) plan.

Deferred Compensation. The amounts shown in the table above do not include distributions of plan balances under our Deferred Compensation Plan. Those amounts are shown in the Non-qualified Deferred Compensation in 2016 table.

Death and Disability. A termination of employment due to death or disability does not entitle the Named Executive Officers to any payments or benefits that are not available to salaried employees generally.

Exercise of Stock Options. Our executives generally may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the stock options granted to them by the Company at any time prior to the earliest of (a) the tenth anniversary of the date of the effective date of the grant of stock options; (b) the date of an executive’s termination for cause or violation of any of the provisions of restrictive covenants with the Company; (c) 30 days following an executive’s voluntary resignation (which does not include a constructive termination, if applicable); or (d) 90 days following the date of an executive’s termination for any other reason, in each case subject to the terms of the Omnibus Equity Plan and the applicable award agreement.

Involuntary and Constructive Termination and Change-in-Control Severance Pay.

Certain of our Named Executive Officers are entitled to severance pay and benefits (as set forth in more detail below) in the event that their employment is terminated by us without cause or, in the case of Messrs. Wilson, Bot, Shurrock and Murphy, a resignation due to fundamental breach of contract. The amounts shown in the table above are for such “involuntary or constructive terminations” and are based on the following assumptions and provisions in the relevant agreements:

•

Covered terminations generally. Eligible terminations include an involuntary termination for reasons other than cause, or, as applicable, a voluntary resignation by the executive as a result of a fundamental breach of contract.

•

Covered terminations following a Change in Control. Eligible terminations include an involuntary termination for reasons other than cause, or, as applicable, a voluntary resignation by the executive as a result of a fundamental breach of contract following a change in control.

•

Cash severance payment. For Mr. Wilson, this represents two times the sum of his base annual salary and target annual bonus. For Mr. Minetola, this represents a cash severance payment of one times his base annual salary plus pro-rata annual target bonus for 2016. We are also required to give Messrs. Wilson, Bot, and Shurrock 12 months (for Mr. Murphy, six months) of notice or pay in lieu of notice, which is not reflected in the table above. In the case of Mr. Minetola, he must execute, deliver and not revoke a separation agreement and general release in order to receive these benefits.

•

Acceleration and continuation of equity awards. For the outstanding grants of RSUs, PSUs and stock options, upon a termination by us without cause, our Named Executive Officers receive pro-rata vesting (in the case of RSUs and stock options, since the last vesting date) for time served plus an additional 12 months, with PSUs based on the actual EPS result (which, for purposes of the table above, uses stretch (200%) for PSUs granted in 2014 and 2015 and an interpolation between target and stretch (159%) for PSU grants in 2016, as reflected in our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016). In addition, upon termination without cause or as a result of a constructive termination, in either case following a change in control, our Named Executive Officers will vest in all previously unvested and outstanding RSUs, PSUs (at target) and stock options. Finally, any accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards is subject to the executive’s execution of a suitable separation agreement and general release.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Payments Upon Change in Control Alone. The change in control provisions in the current employment agreements and equity award agreements relating to outstanding awards for our Named Executive Officers do not provide for any special vesting upon a change in control alone, and severance payments are made only if the executive suffers a covered termination of employment.

Compensation of Directors

All of our current non-employee directors receive compensation for their service as a director, and all of our directors receive reimbursement of expenses incurred from their attendance at meetings of our Board of Directors. Directors who are also our employees (only Mr. Wilson) receive no separate compensation for service on the Board of Directors.

Our Board of Directors has adopted a compensation program for our non-employee directors (the “Independent Director Compensation Policy”). Pursuant to the Independent Director Compensation Policy, certain members of our Board who are not our employees receive the following cash compensation for service as a Board member, as applicable:

•

$75,000 per year for service as a Board member (other than the Chairman of the Board);

•

$25,000 per year for service as chairperson of the Audit Committee and $20,000 per year for service as chairperson of the Compensation Committee or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee; and

•

$10,000 per year for service as a member of each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

In addition, pursuant to the Independent Director Compensation Policy, our current non-employee directors (other than the Chairman of the Board of Directors) receive annual, automatic, non-discretionary grants of RSUs (with one-year cliff vesting) with an initial value of $125,000.

As compensation for his service as Chairman of our Board of Directors, Mr. Steenland receives $150,000 per year payable in cash and $325,000 payable in RSUs with one-year cliff vesting, which is inclusive of his services on any committees. In addition, effective March 1, 2016, Ms. Buse receives an additional $125,000 per year for her service on the board of directors of eNett, our majority-owned subsidiary.

Our Independent Director Compensation Policy provides that the equity awards to non-employee directors shall be granted under, and shall be subject to, the terms and provisions of our Omnibus Equity Plan and shall be granted subject to the execution and delivery of award agreements. Beginning in 2016, our non-employee directors had the right to defer delivery of common shares upon vesting of RSUs until they leave our Board of Directors.

It is expected that each non-employee director shall own common shares equal in value to three times the annual Board cash retainer, except in the case of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, whose ownership of common shares shall be equal to four times the annual Board cash retainer. The Compensation Committee shall periodically review the share ownership guidelines for non-employee directors. Generally, each non-employee director has five years from the date they become subject to the guidelines to meet the applicable ownership threshold.

The following table contains compensation information for our non-employee directors for the year ended December 31, 2016:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common shares as of April 20, 2017 with respect to:

•

each beneficial owner of more than 5% of our issued and outstanding common shares;

•

each of our Named Executive Officers;

•

each of our directors; and

•

all of our directors and our executive officers as a group.

The amounts and percentages of shares beneficially owned are reported on the basis of SEC regulations governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under SEC rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares voting power or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Securities that can be so acquired are deemed to be issued and outstanding for purposes of computing such person’s ownership percentage, but not for purposes of computing any other person’s percentage. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest.

Except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, each of the beneficial owners has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the indicated common shares. Unless otherwise noted, the address of each beneficial owner is Axis One, Axis Park, Langley, Berkshire, SL3 8AG, United Kingdom.

We have entered into commercial transactions on an arms-length basis in the ordinary course of our business with these companies, including the sale of goods and services and the purchase of goods and services. For example, through March 31, 2016, we recorded revenue of approximately $7 million and $2 million, respectively, from Hilton Hotels Corporation and Wyndham Hotel Group, which are Blackstone portfolio companies, in connection with Travel Commerce Platform booking fees received. Other than as described herein, none of these transactions or arrangements is material. Effective March 15, 2016, Blackstone is no longer a shareholder or related party.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with our comprehensive refinancing in 2013, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which we may be required to register the sale of our common shares held by certain existing holders. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, certain holders have the right to request us to register the sale of their common shares and may require us to make available shelf registration statements permitting sales of common shares into the market from time to time over an extended period. In addition, substantially all holders of our common shares prior to our IPO have the ability to exercise certain piggyback registration rights in connection with registered offerings requested by other holders or initiated by us.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Related Person Transactions

Our Audit Committee is responsible for the review, approval or ratification of “related-person transactions” between us or our subsidiaries and related persons. “Related person” refers to a person or entity who is, or at any point since the beginning of the last fiscal year was, a director, officer, nominee for director, or 5% shareholder of us and their immediate family members. Our Audit Committee has adopted a Related Parties Transaction Policy regarding the approval of related-person transactions. The Audit Committee applies its review procedures as a part of its standard operating procedures.

As a general matter, under our Related Party Transactions Policy, related-party transactions where the amount involved could reasonably be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year and material amendments or modifications of any such transaction are submitted to the Audit Committee for review and approval before the transaction is consummated. If advance approval of a related-person transaction is not obtained, then the transaction must be submitted to the Audit Committee for ratification, as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event, at the Audit Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting. If the Audit Committee does not ratify a related-person transaction that has been consummated without its approval, the Audit Committee will, in consultation with our General Counsel, consider whether additional action is necessary, such as terminating the transaction on a prospective basis, rescinding or modifying it in a manner that would facilitate ratification by the Audit Committee.

In the course of its review and approval or ratification of a related-person transaction, as provided in the Audit Committee’s charter and under our Related Party Transactions Policy, the Audit Committee considers:

•

the nature of the related-person’s interest in the transaction;

•

the material terms of the transaction, including the amount involved and type of transaction;

•

the importance of the transaction to the related person and to us;

•

whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in our best interest; and

•

any other matters the Audit Committee deems appropriate.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

Management has the primary responsibility for the consolidated financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. The independent auditors are responsible for performing independent audits of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and issuing their reports thereon.

In performing its oversight function, the Audit Committee discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the independent auditors. The Audit Committee also discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed under the rules adopted by the PCAOB.

In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with the independent auditors the auditors’ independence from the Company and its management, and the independent auditors provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and letter required from the independent auditors by applicable requirements of the PCAOB.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s internal and independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Audit Committee met with the internal and independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations and the evaluations of the Company’s internal controls.

Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above and subject to the limitations on the roles and responsibilities of the Audit Committee referred to above and in its charter, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee also has recommended the selection of the Company’s independent auditors for fiscal year 2017.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common shares to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the SEC. As a practical matter, the Company assists its directors and executive officers by monitoring transactions and completing and filing Section 16 reports on their behalf. We reviewed copies of reports filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act. Based solely on that review, we believe that during 2016, all filings required to be made under Section 16(a) were timely made in accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

SHAREHOLDER ENGAGEMENT

We regularly conduct engagement and outreach efforts in order to communicate with existing and prospective shareholders, lenders, research analysts, rating agencies, governance firms and others. In 2016, our key engagement activities included numerous group and one-on-one investor meetings, conference calls following each of our quarterly earnings releases and presentations at various investor conferences. Numerous members of management, in addition to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, participated in these activities, each of which contained opportunities for shareholders and other constituents to ask questions and provide feedback to management.

Our Investor Relations department is the key point of contact for shareholder interaction with the Company. Shareholders and other interested parties may access investor information about us through our website at www.travelport.com. The Investor Relations department coordinates institutional investor meetings with management, appearances at investor conferences and our quarterly earnings calls.

Steenland, Chambers, Durham, Forbes, Hacker, Smith and Wilson and Ms. Buse to be elected at the Meeting to serve as directors for a one-year term ending at the 2018 annual general meeting of shareholders or until his or her successor is duly elected or appointed or until his or her office is otherwise vacated. All of the nominees for director are incumbent nominees and, other than Messrs. Forbes and Smith, were each elected for one-year terms at the 2016 annual general meeting of shareholders.

For certain information regarding each nominee, see “Board of Directors—Biographical Information for Nominees” above.

Each nominee has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve if elected. If, prior to the Meeting, any nominee should become unavailable to serve, proxies may be voted for another person nominated as an alternative by the Board, or a vacancy on the Board may exist until the Board appoints a person as a director to fill such vacancy or the Board may reduce the number of directors on the Board in accordance with the bye-laws to eliminate such vacancy.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR”
THE ELECTION OF EACH NOMINEE AS A DIRECTOR.

PROPOSAL NO. 2:
APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS AND AUTHORIZATION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD TO DETERMINE THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REMUNERATION

The Audit Committee of the Board has recommended and asks that you appoint Deloitte LLP as independent auditors to audit the accounts of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 and authorize the Audit Committee to determine the independent auditors’ remuneration. According to Bermuda law, an auditor is appointed for a one-year term beginning at the annual general meeting at which it is appointed and continuing until the close of the next annual general meeting.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal is required to make such appointment and to authorize the Audit Committee to determine the independent auditors’ remuneration. If an auditor is not appointed by a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting, the Audit Committee will appoint Deloitte LLP as the independent auditors to audit the accounts of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017, and the Audit Committee will determine the independent auditors’ remuneration. Abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Deloitte LLP served as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. A representative of Deloitte LLP is expected to be present at the Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions of shareholders.

Principal Accounting Firm Fees. Fees billed to us by Deloitte LLP, the member firm of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective affiliates (collectively, the “Deloitte Entities”), during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:

Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed for the audit of our annual financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the reviews of the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and statutory audits were $4.0 million.

Audit-Related Fees. The aggregate fees billed for audit-related services were $0.3 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These fees relate primarily to audits of employee benefit plans, reviewing internal controls and other attest services primarily for comfort letters and consents related to SEC and other registration statements.

Tax Fees. The aggregate fees billed for tax services during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were $1.9 million and $3.1 million, respectively. These fees relate to tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, including a multi-year tax restructuring program.

Other Fees. Other than the aforementioned fees, there were no other fees charged to us by Deloitte LLP during 2016 and 2015.

Our Audit Committee considered the non-audit services provided by the Deloitte Entities and determined that the provision of such services was compatible with maintaining the Deloitte Entities’ independence. Our Audit Committee also adopted a policy prohibiting Travelport from hiring the Deloitte Entities’ personnel at the manager or partner level, who have been directly involved in performing auditing procedures or providing accounting advice to us, in any role in which such person would be in a position to influence the contents of our financial statements. Our Audit Committee is responsible for appointing our independent auditors and approving the terms of the independent auditors’ services. Our Audit Committee has established a policy for the pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditors, as described below.

All services performed by the independent auditors in 2016 were pre-approved in accordance with the pre-approval policy and procedures adopted by the Audit Committee at its December 14, 2015 meeting. This policy describes the permitted audit, audit-related, tax and other services (collectively, the “Disclosure

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Categories”) that the independent auditors may perform. The policy requires that prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, a description of the services (the “Service List”) anticipated to be performed by the independent auditor in each of the Disclosure Categories in the ensuing fiscal year be presented to the Audit Committee for approval.

Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax and other services not contemplated by the Service List must be submitted to the Audit Committee for specific pre-approval, except for de minimis amounts under certain circumstances as described below, and cannot commence until such approval has been granted. Normally, pre-approval is provided at regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee. However, the authority to grant specific pre-approval between meetings may be delegated to one or more members of the Audit Committee. The member or members of the Audit Committee to whom such authority is delegated shall report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The policy contains a de minimis provision that operates to provide retroactive approval for permissible non-audit services under certain circumstances. Services provided by the Deloitte Entities during 2016 and 2015 under this provision were approximately $0 million for each of these years.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE LLP AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND AUTHORIZATION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE TO DETERMINE THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REMUNERATION.

PROPOSAL NO. 3:
ADVISORY APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is asking its shareholders to approve a non-binding advisory resolution to approve the compensation of its Named Executive Officers as follows:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers as disclosed pursuant to the compensation rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and narrative discussion, and any related material disclosed in this proxy statement, is hereby APPROVED.”

This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our Named Executive Officers, as described in this proxy statement.

Our executive compensation program is tied directly to the performance of our business using metrics we believe indicate the success of our business to ultimately create value for our shareholders. As described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this proxy statement, we have strived to create an executive compensation program that provides both short-term and long-term payments and awards, in order to:

•

attract and retain talent from within the highly competitive global marketplace;

•

ensure a performance-based delivery of pay that aligns our Named Executive Officers’ rewards with our shareholders’ interests;

•

compensate our Named Executive Officers in a manner that incentivizes them to manage our business to meet our long-term objectives;

•

compensate our Named Executive Officers in a manner commensurate with their and our performance; and

•

promote a long-term commitment to us.

We believe that the 2016 compensation for our Named Executive Officers is consistent with this philosophy. In addition, we believe our emphasis on performance-based compensation, mixed between short and long-term incentives, further aligns our executives’ interests with our shareholders’ interests. Please read our Compensation Discussion and Analysis for a more detailed explanation of our executive compensation program and practices.

This vote is advisory only and, therefore, it will not be binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee or our Board, nor will it overrule any prior decision or require the Board or the Compensation Committee to take any action. However, the Compensation Committee and our Board value the opinions of our shareholders and to the extent there is any significant vote against the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, the Compensation Committee and our Board will consider shareholders’ concerns and the Compensation Committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE RESOLUTION SET FORTH ABOVE.

Shareholder Proposals for 2018 Annual General Meeting

Proposals received from shareholders are given careful consideration by the Company in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. Shareholder proposals are eligible for consideration for inclusion in the proxy statement for the 2018 annual general meeting of shareholders if they are received by the Company on or before March 18, 2018. Any proposal should be directed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary, Travelport Worldwide Limited, Axis One, Axis Park, Langley, Berkshire, SL3 8AG, United Kingdom. In order for a shareholder proposal submitted outside of Rule 14a-8 to be considered “timely” within the meaning of Rule 14a-4(c), such proposal must be received by the Company not later than the last date for submission of shareholder proposals under the Company’s bye-laws. In order for a proposal to be “timely” under the Company’s bye-laws, it must be received not less than ninety (90) days (i.e., March 18, 2018) nor more than one hundred and twenty (120) days (i.e., February 16, 2018) before the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual general meeting of shareholders; provided, however, in the event that the annual general meeting of shareholders is called for on a date that is greater than thirty (30) days before or after such anniversary date, notice by the shareholder in order to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders was mailed or such public disclosure of the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders was made, whichever occurs first. Shareholder proposals should be in the proper written form required by our bye-laws.

In addition, Section 79 of the Companies Act 1981, as amended of Bermuda provides that shareholders representing either (i) 5% or more of the total voting rights eligible to vote at the annual general meeting at the date the notice is given to the Company or (ii) not less than 100 shareholders may propose any resolution which may be properly moved at the annual general meeting. Upon timely receipt of notice, we will, at the expense of the shareholder(s) proposing the resolution, give our shareholders entitled to receive notice of the next annual general meeting of shareholders notice of the proposed resolution. To be timely, the proposal must be deposited at our registered office at least six weeks before the next annual general meeting of shareholders. Shareholders satisfying the criteria of Section 79 may also require us to circulate, at the expense of the shareholder(s), a statement not exceeding 1,000 words with respect to any matter referred to in any proposed resolution or the business to be dealt with at the annual general meeting by providing notice deposited at our registered office not less than one week prior to the annual general meeting of shareholders.

Additional Information

Eliminating Duplicate Mailings. If you share an address with other shareholders of the Company, you may receive notification that you are being sent only a single copy of proxy materials (including a copy of the proxy statement and the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K) or a single Notice, as applicable, unless your bank, broker or other intermediary that provides the notification receives contrary instructions from the affected shareholders. This practice, permitted under SEC rules and commonly referred to as “householding,” is designed to provide extra convenience for shareholders and potential cost savings for companies.

If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate set of proxy materials or Notice, as applicable, please notify your broker if your Common Shares are held in a brokerage account or the Company if you hold registered Common Shares, and we will promptly deliver the requested materials. You can notify the Company by sending a written request to Travelport Worldwide Limited, Axis One, Axis Park, Langley, Berkshire, SL3 8AG, United Kingdom, Attention: Corporate Secretary or by calling +44-1753-288-000 and requesting the Investor Relations department.

Solicitation of Proxies. The accompanying form of proxy is being solicited on behalf of the Board of the Company. The expenses of solicitation of proxies for the Meeting will be paid by the Company. In addition to the mailing of the proxy materials, such solicitation may be made in person or by telephone by directors, officers and employees of the Company, who will receive no additional compensation therefor. Upon request, the Company will reimburse brokers, dealers, banks and trustees, or their nominees, for reasonable expenses incurred by them in forwarding material to beneficial owners of Common Shares. The Company has hired Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. to aid in the solicitation of proxies. It is estimated that the fee for Broadridge will be approximately $11,000 plus reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses. Such fee will be paid by the Company.
