significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Many of these
factors are outside the control of Astrea, HotelPlanner.com, and Reservations.com and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause
such differences include, but are not limited to: the risk that the benefits of the Transactions may not be realized; the risk that the
Transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Astrea’s securities; the
failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Transactions, including the failure of Astrea’s stockholders to approve

undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Neither Astrea, HotelPlanner.com, nor Reservations.com
