Options
Activation energy of forward reaction is E1 + E2 and product is less stable than reactant.
Activation energy of forward reaction is E1 + E2 and product is more stable than reactant.
Activation energy of both forward and backward reaction is E1 + E2 and reactant is more stable than product.
Activation energy of backward reaction is E1 and product is more stable than reactant.

Solution
Activation energy of forward reaction is E1 + E2 and product is less stable than reactant.
Explanation:
Ea (forward) = E1 + E2
Since energy of reactants is less than products and the product is less stable than the reactant.
