Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )The options are vested and currently exercisable.
( 2 )This Form 4/A is being filed to correct the number of options beneficially owned by the Reporting Person following the reported transaction. The original Form 4, filed on August 24, 2023 (the "Original Form 4"), erroneously reported 6,113,141 options to purchase shares of Class B Common Stock of Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Person, which was based on the exchange for 2,000,000 options to purchase shares of common stock of Better Holdco, Inc. ("Better Holdco"), a Delaware corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 10, 2021, (as amended, the "Merger Agreement"), by and among Aurora Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted company ("Aurora" and, following the business combination contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the "Issuer"), Aurora Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Aurora, and Better Holdco.
( 3 )(continued from footnote 2) Before the reported transactions, the Reporting Person voluntarily forfeited 1,683,501 options to purchase Better Holdco common stock on April 24, 2023, in connection with a Better Holdco employee retention program. Following the reported transaction, the Reporting Person beneficially owns 967,401 options to purchase Class B Common Stock of the Issuer. Other than as described in this footnote, there are no other changes from the Original Form 4, including the transactions triggering the Original Form 4.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
