Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )Represents shares of IAC common stock acquired directly from IAC/InterActiveCorp ("IAC") on March 5-7, 2013 in settlement of a compensation award (the "Match Award") made on February 18, 2009 in connection with the reporting person's appointment as CEO of Match.com. The payment made is based on a valuation of Match.com as a standalone business, and the terms of the Match Award provide IAC with the ability to settle the resulting value in either cash or shares of IAC common stock, at its election. IAC elected to settle in shares of stock.
( 2 )Represents the open market sale of the shares of IAC common stock received by the reporting person as described in footnote (1). The staggered exercises and sales were intended to minimize the differential (positive or negative) between the resulting value to the reporting person and what he would have received in the case of a cash settlement.
( 3 )The price reflects the weighted average of sales made at prices ranging from $40.99 to $41.98 (3/5/13), $42.01 to $42.49 (3/5/13), $42.18 to $42.84 (3/6/13) and $42.44 to $42.67 (3/7/13). The reporting person agrees to provide upon request by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, IAC/InterActiveCorp or any security holder of IAC/InterActiveCorp, information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price.

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).
