NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

IAC is a leading internet company with more than 50 brands serving consumer audiences across more than 30 countries...our mission is to harness the power of interactivity to make daily life easier and more productive for people all over the world. IAC includes the businesses comprising its Search segment; its Match and ServiceMagic segments; the businesses comprising its Media & Other segment; as well as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.

All references to "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us" in this report are to IAC/InterActiveCorp.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all entities that are wholly-owned by the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, whether through voting interests or variable interests. The Company's consolidated financial statements include one variable interest entity, in which the Company has a controlling financial interest through voting rights and is also the primary beneficiary. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial matters of the investee, but does not own a controlling voting interest, are accounted for using the equity method and are included in "Long-term investments" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Accounting Estimates

Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. They also impact the reported amount of net earnings during any period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements include those related to: the determination of the fair value of marketable securities; the assessment of marketable securities and long-term investments for other-than-temporary impairment; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowances for doubtful accounts and other revenue related allowances; the assessment of long-lived assets, definite-lived intangible assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment; income taxes

payable and deferred income taxes, including related reserves and valuation allowances; and the determination of stock-based compensation.

Certain Risks and Concentrations

A significant portion of the Company's revenue is derived from online advertising, the market for which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant changes in this industry or changes in customer buying behavior or advertiser spending behavior, including those changes that may result from the current economic environment, could adversely affect our operating results. A significant component of the Company's revenue is attributable to a paid listing supply agreement with Google Inc. ("Google"), which expires on December 31, 2012. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, revenue earned from Google was $171.5 million and $129.2 million, respectively. The majority of this revenue is earned by the businesses comprising the Search segment. Accounts receivable related to revenue earned from Google totaled $62.6 million at March 31, 2010 and $55.0 million at December 31, 2009.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 3—INCOME TAXES

At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, or judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.

The computation of the annual expected effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected operating income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of income (or loss) earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision or benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or our tax environment changes. To the extent that the expected annual effective tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in tax expense for the quarter in which the change occurs.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $4.0 million on a pre-tax loss of $13.9 million. The continuing operations tax provision, despite a pre-tax loss, was due principally to a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset created by the impairment charge for our investment in The HealthCentral Network, Inc. ("HealthCentral"), interest on tax contingencies and state taxes, partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $2.7 million on a pre-tax loss of $32.6 million which represents an effective tax rate of 8%. This tax rate is lower than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset created by losses from equity investments, non-deductible transaction costs related to the sale of Match Europe to Meetic, interest on tax contingencies and state taxes, partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates.

At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, were $470.4 million and $462.9 million, respectively. Total unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2010 include $11.8 million that have been netted against the related deferred tax assets. Of the remaining balance $457.6 million and $1.0 million are reflected in "non-current income taxes payable" and "accrued expenses and other current liabilities", respectively. Included in unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2010 is $112.9 million for tax positions which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. If unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2010 are subsequently recognized, $96.7 million and $193.7 million, net of related deferred tax assets and interest, would reduce income tax expense from continuing operations and discontinued operations, respectively. In addition, a continuing operations tax provision of $3.4 million would be required upon the subsequent recognition of unrecognized tax benefits for an increase in the Company's valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets.

The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Included in income tax expense from continuing operations and discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is a $2.4 million expense and a $1.7 million

IAC/INTERACTIVECORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 3—INCOME TAXES (Continued)

expense, respectively, net of related deferred taxes of $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has accrued $75.5 million and $68.7 million, respectively, for the payment of interest. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has accrued $5.0 million for penalties.

The Company is routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities in the area of income tax. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of deductions and the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. Income taxes payable include amounts considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year tax returns; however, the amount paid upon resolution of issues raised may differ materially from the amount provided. Differences between the reserves for tax contingencies and the amounts owed by the Company are recorded in the period they become known.

The Internal Revenue Service is currently examining the Company's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2001 through 2006. The statute of limitations for these years has been extended to December 31, 2010. Various state, local and foreign jurisdictions are currently under examination, the most significant of which are California, New York and New York City, for various tax years beginning with December 31, 2002. These examinations are expected to be completed in 2011. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $18.8 million within twelve months of the current reporting date due to settlements and the reversal of deductible temporary differences which will primarily result in a corresponding increase in net deferred tax liabilities, and statute of limitations expirations. An estimate of other changes in unrecognized tax benefits, while potentially significant, cannot be made.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the proceeds from sales and maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities were $201.0 million, which resulted in gross realized gains of $4.2 million. Gross realized gains from the sale of marketable debt securities are included in "Other income" and the gross realized gain from the sale of our remaining shares of OpenTable, Inc. is included in "Gain on sale of investment" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

Substantially all of the Company's fixed income securities are rated investment grade or better. The gross unrealized losses related to fixed income securities were due primarily to changes in interest rates. Because the Company does not intend to sell any marketable securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell any marketable securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider any of its marketable securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2010.

NOTE 5—EQUITY INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company's equity investments in unconsolidated affiliates totaled $175.0 million and $200.4 million, respectively, and are included in "Long-term investments" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

During 2010, the Company recorded an $18.3 million impairment charge to write-down its investment in HealthCentral to fair value. The decline in value was determined to be other-than-temporary due to HealthCentral's continued losses and negative operating cash flows, which are due, in part, to macroeconomic and industry specific factors. The valuation of our investment in HealthCentral reflects the Company's assessment of these factors. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in HealthCentral using a multiple of revenue approach in the context of a different valuation environment than that which prevailed when our initial investment was made.

The Company records its share of the results of HealthCentral on a one-quarter lag and, along with the related impairment charge described above, includes it within "Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

Summarized financial information for HealthCentral is as follows:

NOTE 6—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

•: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets obtained from independent sources.
•: Level 2: Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. The fair value of the Company's level 2 financial assets is primarily obtained from observable market prices for identical underlying securities that may not be actively traded. Certain of these securities may have different market prices from multiple market data sources, in which case a weighted average market price is used.
•: Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and require the Company to develop its own assumptions, based on the best information available in the circumstances, about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. See below for a discussion of assets measured at fair value using level 3 inputs.

NOTE 6—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

Marketable equity security

The cost basis of this marketable equity security is $12.9 million with $0.8 million of gross unrealized loss at March 31, 2010. The unrealized loss is included in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Auction rate securities

The auction rate securities are valued by discounting the estimated future cash flow streams of the securities over the life of the securities. Credit spreads and other risk factors are also considered in establishing a fair value. At March 31, 2010, the auction rate securities are rated either A+/WR or A/WR. Due to their high credit rating and because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider the unrealized loss of $1.6 million to be an other-than-temporary impairment at March 31, 2010. The auction rate securities mature in 2025 and 2035.

Derivative asset created in the HSE sale

The CVR was accounted for as a derivative asset and maintained at fair value relying on significant unobservable inputs including credit risk. During 2009, the Company wrote the value of the CVR down to zero. This reflected the increased credit risk due to ARO's insolvency filing and the Company's assessment of the value that it expects to recover.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

The Company's non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, as well as, equity and cost method investments, are measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized. Such impairment charges incorporate fair value measurements based on level 3 inputs. See Note 5 for a description of an impairment charge recorded in the first quarter of 2010 related to an equity method investment.

NOTE 7—FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of financial instruments listed below has been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.

	March 31, 2010

	Carrying Amount			Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	952,272		$	952,272
Marketable securities		575,132			575,132
Long-term marketable equity security		12,121			12,121
Auction rate securities		13,420			13,420
Notes receivable, non-current		3,052			2,328
Long-term debt		(95,844	)		(85,785	)
Guarantee and letters of credit		N/A			(477	)

The carrying amounts of cash equivalents approximate fair value due to their short-term maturity. Notes receivable, non-current are valued based on discounting the expected future cash flow streams using yields of the underlying credit. The fair value of long-term debt was estimated using quoted market prices or indices for similar liabilities and taking into consideration other factors such as credit quality and maturity. The fair value of the guarantee and letters of credit are based on the present value of the costs associated with maintaining these instruments over their expected term. See Note 4 for discussion of the fair value of marketable securities and Note 6 for discussion of the fair value of the long-term marketable equity security and auction rate securities.

Investments accounted for under the cost method are included in "Long-term investments" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and have a carrying value of $44.3 million at March 31, 2010. The Company evaluates each cost method investment for impairment on a quarterly basis and recognizes an impairment loss if a decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary. Such impairment evaluations include, but are not limited to: the current business environment, including competition; going concern considerations such as financial condition and the rate at which the investee company utilizes cash and the investee company's ability to obtain additional financing to achieve its business plan; the need for changes to the investee company's existing business model due to changing business environments and its ability to successfully implement necessary changes; and comparable valuations. If the Company has not identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of a cost method investment, then the fair value of such cost method investment is not estimated, as it is impracticable to do so.

(a): If the effect is dilutive, weighted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants and vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs"). For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had losses from continuing operations and as a result, no potentially dilutive securities were included in the denominator for computing dilutive earnings per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the weighted average basic shares outstanding were used to compute all earnings per share amounts. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, approximately 39.0 million and 39.2 million shares, respectively, related to potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 9—SEGMENT INFORMATION

The overall concept that IAC employs in determining its operating segments is to present the financial information in a manner consistent with how the chief operating decision maker and executive management view the businesses, how the businesses are organized as to segment management, and the focus of the businesses with regards to the types of products or services offered or the target market.

Entities included in discontinued operations are excluded from the tables below. Operating segments are combined for reporting purposes if they meet certain aggregation criteria, which principally relate to the similarity of their economic characteristics or, in the case of Media & Other, do not meet the quantitative thresholds that require presentation as separate operating segments.

In the fourth quarter of 2009, IAC renamed and realigned its reportable segments. The Media & Advertising segment was renamed "Search," and the Emerging Businesses segment was renamed "Media & Other." Further, Evite was moved from the Search segment (formerly Media & Advertising) to the Media & Other segment (formerly Emerging Businesses).

The Company's primary metric is Operating Income Before Amortization, which is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) amortization of non-cash marketing, (3) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (4) goodwill impairment, (5) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions, and (6) one-time items. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because it represents the operating results from IAC's segments, taking into account depreciation, which it believes is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. Operating Income Before Amortization has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC's statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation, non-cash marketing, and acquisition related accounting. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-U.S. GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable U.S. GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence, financial statements prepared in

NOTE 10—CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to various lawsuits. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal matters when it determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable. Management has also identified certain other legal matters where we believe an unfavorable outcome is not probable and, therefore, no reserve is established. Although management currently believes that resolving claims against us, including claims where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, will not have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management's view of these matters may change in the future. It is possible that an unfavorable outcome of one or more of these lawsuits could have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company. The Company also evaluates other contingent matters, including tax contingencies, to assess the probability and estimated extent of potential loss. See Note 3 for additional information related to income tax contingencies.

NOTE 11—SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

On January 31, 2009, IAC completed the sale of ReserveAmerica to The Active Network, Inc. ("Active"). In exchange for ReserveAmerica, IAC received approximately 3.5 million shares of Active convertible preferred stock, valued at $33.3 million. No gain or loss was recognized on the sale of ReserveAmerica as the fair value of the Active convertible preferred stock received was equivalent to the carrying value of ReserveAmerica.

Management Overview

IAC is a leading internet company with more than 50 brands serving consumer audiences across more than 30 countries... our mission is to harness the power of interactivity to make daily life easier and more productive for people all over the world. IAC includes the businesses comprising its Search segment; its Match and ServiceMagic segments; the businesses comprising its Media & Other segment; as well as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.

All references to "IAC," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us" in this report are to IAC/InterActiveCorp.

Revenue in 2010 increased $53.9 million from 2009 primarily as a result of revenue increases of $33.0 million from Search, $10.9 million from ServiceMagic and $9.5 million from Media & Other. The increase from Search reflects an increase in proprietary queries and continued growth in distributed toolbars. The increase in revenue from ServiceMagic was primarily due to a more active service provider network resulting in a 35% increase in accepted domestic service requests. The increase in revenue from Media & Other was driven by growth at Pronto and the revenue associated with profit participations related to our interests in Reveille.

bp = basis points

Cost of revenue consists primarily of traffic acquisition costs, compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in data center functions, the cost of products sold and shipping and handling costs. Traffic acquisition costs consist of revenue share payments to partners that have distributed toolbars and/or integrated paid listings into their websites and similar arrangements with third parties who direct traffic to our websites.

Cost of revenue in 2010 increased $23.2 million from 2009 primarily due to an increase of $25.2 million from Search, partially offset by a decrease of $3.3 million from Match. The increase in cost of revenue from Search was primarily due to an increase of $23.7 million in traffic acquisition costs. Cost of revenue from Match decreased primarily due to lower traffic acquisition costs following the sale of Match Europe.

As a percentage of revenue		34%		(605	) bp		40%

Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of advertising and promotional expenditures and compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in sales functions, marketing and promotion. Advertising and promotional expenditures include online marketing, including fees paid to search engines and third parties that distribute our toolbars, and offline marketing, including television, radio and print advertising.

Selling and marketing expense in 2010 decreased $1.7 million from 2009 primarily due to a decrease of $11.8 million from Search, partially offset by an increase of $9.2 million from ServiceMagic. The decrease in selling and marketing expense from Search is primarily due to lower advertising and promotional expenditures of $9.9 million, as the prior year period included expenditures associated with the NASCAR partnership. The increase in selling and marketing expense from ServiceMagic is due to an increase of $7.5 million in online and offline marketing and an increase in compensation and other employee-related costs, due in part, to the continued expansion of its sales force. The growth in service requests during the year from paid channels outpaced the growth in free requests as a result of the increase in marketing.

General and administrative expense consists primarily of compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel engaged in executive management, finance, legal, tax and human resources, facilities costs and fees for professional services.

General and administrative expense in 2010 increased $3.6 million from 2009 primarily due to increases of $4.0 million from Media & Other and $1.6 million from corporate, partially offset by a decrease of $2.3 million from Match. General and administrative expense from Media & Other increased primarily due to the continued investment in Electus and Notional, as well as increased operating expenses associated with Evite and Vimeo. The increase from corporate is principally due to an increase of $2.7 million in non-cash compensation expense related to equity grants issued subsequent to the first quarter of 2009, partially offset by lower taxes and professional fees. The decrease in general and administrative expense from Match is due to a decrease of $3.0 million in acquisition related expenses.

Product development expense consists primarily of compensation and other employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the design, development, testing and enhancement of product offerings and related technology.

Product development expense in 2010 decreased $1.5 million from 2009 primarily due to a decrease of $2.1 million from Search, partially offset by an increase of $0.6 million from Match. Contributing to the decrease in product development expense at Search is a decrease of 7% in average headcount at IAC Search & Media and an increase in costs being capitalized in the current year period related to the development and enhancement of IAC Search & Media's product offerings and related technology. The increase in product development expense from Match is primarily due to an increase in compensation and other employee-related costs.

Operating Income Before Amortization in 2010 increased $32.4 million from 2009 primarily due to increases of $21.3 million, $4.9 million and $4.3 million from Search, Match and Media & Other, respectively. The increase in Operating Income Before Amortization reflects higher overall revenue and lower advertising and promotional expenditures from Search, lower traffic acquisition costs and a reduction in acquisition related expenses from Match, and the participation in profits related to our interests in Reveille from Media & Other.

As a percentage of revenue		1%		NM		(10)%

Operating income in 2010 increased $36.7 million from 2009 primarily due to an increase of $32.4 million in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and the decreases of $4.7 million in amortization of intangibles and $2.3 million in amortization of non-cash marketing as well as the inclusion in the prior year period of a goodwill impairment charge of $1.1 million, partially offset by an increase of $3.8 million in non-cash compensation expense. The decrease in amortization of intangibles is primarily due to the write-off of certain definite-lived intangible assets at IAC Search & Media during the fourth quarter of 2009. The amortization of non-cash marketing referred to in this report consists of non-cash advertising credits secured from Universal Television as part of the transaction pursuant to which Vivendi Universal Entertainment, LLLP ("VUE") was created, and the subsequent transaction by which IAC sold its partnership interests in VUE.

The increase in non-cash compensation expense is primarily due to the expense related to equity grants issued subsequent to the first quarter of 2009. As of March 31, 2010, there was $158.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to all equity-based awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.6 years.

Interest income in 2010 decreased $2.1 million from 2009 primarily due to the impact of lower average interest rates and lower average investment balances throughout the period.

Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates in 2010 increased $20.8 million from 2009 primarily due to an $18.3 million impairment charge to write-down the Company's investment in The HealthCentral Network, Inc. ("HealthCentral") to fair value. The decline in value was determined to be other-than-temporary due to HealthCentral's continued losses and negative operating cash flows, which are due, in part, to macroeconomic and industry specific factors. The valuation of our investment in HealthCentral reflects the Company's assessment of these factors. The Company estimated the fair value of its investment in HealthCentral using a multiple of revenue approach in the context of a different valuation environment than that which prevailed when our initial investment was made. Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates includes a loss of $1.5 million from the Company's investment in Meetic S.A. ("Meetic"), which is not in the year ago period. The loss from the investment in Meetic is primarily due to the amortization of intangibles, which is required by purchase accounting rules.

Gain on sale of investment in 2010 of $4.0 million represents a gain related to the sale of our remaining shares of OpenTable, Inc. ("OpenTable").

Income tax provision

In 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision for continuing operations of $4.0 million on a pre-tax loss of $13.9 million. The continuing operations tax provision, despite a pre-tax loss, was due principally to a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset created by the impairment charge for our investment in HealthCentral, interest on tax contingencies and state taxes, partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates. In 2009, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for continuing operations of $2.7 million on a pre-tax loss of $32.6 million, which represents an effective

tax rate of 8%. This rate is lower than the federal statutory rate of 35% due principally to a valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset created by losses from equity investments, non-deductible transaction costs related to the sale of Match Europe to Meetic, interest on tax contingencies and state taxes, partially offset by foreign income taxed at lower rates.

At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $394.9 million and $394.3 million, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits for March 31, 2010 increased by $0.6 million due principally to a net increase in deductible temporary differences. The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Included in the income tax expense from continuing operations and discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is a $2.4 million expense and a $1.7 million expense, net of related deferred taxes of $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for interest on unrecognized tax benefits. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has accrued $75.5 million and $68.7 million, respectively, for the payment of interest. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has accrued $5.0 million for penalties.

The Internal Revenue Service is currently examining the Company's tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2001 through 2006. The statute of limitations for these years has been extended to December 31, 2010. Various state, local and foreign jurisdictions are currently under examination, the most significant of which are California, New York and New York City, for various tax years beginning with December 31, 2002. These examinations are expected to be completed in 2011. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $18.8 million within twelve months of the current reporting date primarily due to the reversal of deductible temporary differences which will primarily result in a corresponding increase in net deferred tax liabilities, and statute of limitations expirations. An estimate of other changes in unrecognized tax benefits, while potentially significant, cannot be made.

On February 1, 2010, President Obama released his administration's updated proposals to modify certain aspects of the rules governing the U.S. taxation of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. Many details of the proposal remain unknown and any legislation enacting such modifications would require Congressional approval; however, changes to these rules could impact the Company's effective tax rate. The Company will continue to monitor the progress of the proposals to determine the impact, if any, to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Discontinued operations

Discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations consist primarily of Quiz TV Limited and iBuy.

Results from these discontinued operations, net of tax, in 2010 and 2009 were losses of $1.5 million and earnings of $1.2 million, respectively. The 2010 amount is principally due to interest on tax contingencies. The 2009 amount is principally due to iBuy.

Recoverability of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, which consist of certain of the Company's trade names and trademarks, are tested annually for impairment as of October 1 or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset below its carrying value.

Goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of each of the Company's reporting units to its carrying value, including goodwill. In performing the first step, the Company determines the fair value of a reporting unit using a discounted cash flow ("DCF") analysis. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about the amount and timing of expected future cash flows and appropriate discount rates. The expected cash flows used in the DCF analyses are based on the Company's most recent budget and, for years beyond the budget, the Company's estimates, which are based, in part, on forecasted growth rates. The discount rates used in the DCF analyses are intended to reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows of the respective reporting units. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not necessary. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, then the second step of the goodwill impairment test must be performed. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill with its carrying value to measure the amount of impairment, if any. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. In other words, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid. If the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

The Company's indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of acquired trade names and trademarks. The impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets involves a comparison of the estimated fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The estimates of fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets are determined using an avoided royalty DCF valuation analysis. Significant judgments inherent in this analysis include the selection of appropriate royalty and discount rates and estimating the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The discount rates used in the DCF analyses are intended to reflect the risks inherent in the expected future cash flows generated by the respective intangible assets. The royalty rates used in the DCF analyses are based upon an estimate of the royalty rates that a market participant would pay to license the Company's trade names and trademarks.

The Company has seven reporting units with goodwill. Of these, IAC Search & Media, InstantAction and Connected Ventures have fair values that approximate their carrying values. The amount of goodwill of each of the reporting units was $527.6 million, $31.6 million and $8.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009. If operating results of these businesses vary significantly from anticipated results, future, potentially material, impairments of goodwill and/or indefinite-lived intangible assets could occur. To illustrate the magnitude of potential impairment charges relative to future changes in estimated fair values, had the estimated fair values of each of these reporting units been hypothetically lower by 10% as of October 1, 2009, the carrying values of IAC Search & Media, InstantAction and Connected Ventures would have exceeded their respective fair values by approximately $80 million, $4 million and $4 million, respectively. Had the estimated fair values of each of these reporting units been hypothetically lower by 20% as of October 1, 2009, the carrying values of IAC Search & Media, InstantAction and Connected Ventures would have exceeded their respective fair values by approximately $160 million, $8 million and $8 million, respectively.

Any impairment charge that might result in the future would be determined based upon the excess of the carrying value of goodwill over its implied fair value using the second step of the impairment analysis that is described above but, in any event, would not be expected to be lower than the excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit over its fair value. The primary driver in the DCF valuation analyses and the determination of the fair values of the Company's reporting units is the estimate of future revenue and profitability. Generally, the Company would expect to record an impairment if forecasted revenue and profitability are no longer expected to be achieved and as a result, the carrying value of a reporting unit(s) exceeds its fair value. This assessment would be based, in part, upon the performance of its businesses relative to budget, the Company's assessment of macroeconomic factors, industry and competitive dynamics and the strategies of its businesses in response to these factors.

Segment Results

In addition to the discussion of consolidated results above, the following is a discussion of the results of each segment.

Search

Our Search segment consists primarily of Ask.com and other destination search websites through which we provide search and related advertising services, toolbars and applications through which we promote and distribute these services, and Citysearch, a leading online local city guide.

Revenue increased 20% to $199.0 million, reflecting an increase in proprietary queries and continued growth in distributed toolbars. The increase in proprietary queries was driven by increased traffic acquisition efforts and enhancements associated with proprietary toolbars. Growth in distributed toolbars revenue reflects increased revenue from existing partners and the addition of new partners, partially offset by a decline in revenue per query associated with changes in our distributed toolbar's traffic mix. Citysearch's revenue declined primarily due to lower proprietary advertising and traffic, partially offset by an increase in advertising and traffic from network partners.

Operating Income Before Amortization increased 208% to $31.5 million, primarily due to the higher revenue noted above and decreases of $11.8 million in selling and marketing expense and $2.1 million in product development expense, partially offset by an increase of $23.7 million in traffic acquisition costs. The decrease in selling and marketing expense is primarily due to a decrease of $9.9 million in advertising and promotional expenditures, as the prior year period included expenditures associated with the NASCAR partnership. The decrease in product development expense is primarily due to a decrease of $2.1 million in compensation and other employee-related costs due, in part, to an approximate 7% reduction in average headcount at IAC Search & Media and an increase in costs being capitalized in the current year period related to the development and enhancement of IAC Search & Media's product offerings and related technology.

Operating income increased $29.8 million to $31.1 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and decreases of $6.3 million in amortization of intangibles and $2.3 million in amortization of non-cash marketing. The decrease in amortization of intangibles is due to the write-off of certain definite-lived intangible assets at IAC Search & Media during the fourth quarter of 2009.

Match

Revenue declined 1% to $89.3 million, reflecting the sale of Match Europe to Meetic on June 5, 2009, partially offset by a combined $12.2 million contribution from People Media, acquired July 13, 2009, and Singlesnet, acquired March 2, 2010, and solid growth in the U.S. business. Excluding the results of Match Europe from the prior period and People Media and Singlesnet from the current period, revenue grew 8% driven by a 2% increase in U.S. subscribers and the impact of a change in estimate related to the reserve for refunds and chargebacks.

Operating Income Before Amortization increased 49% to $14.8 million despite the slight decrease in revenue noted above, primarily due to decreases of $3.3 million in cost of revenue and $2.3 million in general and administrative expense. The decrease in cost of revenue is primarily due to lower traffic acquisition costs following the sale of Match Europe. The decrease in general and administrative expense was principally due to a reduction of $3.0 million in acquisition related expenses.

Operating income increased 41% to $13.7 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above, partially offset by an increase of $1.0 million in amortization of intangibles, relating primarily to the acquisition of People Media.

ServiceMagic

Revenue grew 35% to $42.2 million, benefiting from a 35% increase in the number of times domestic service requests are accepted by a domestic service professional. During 2010, ServiceMagic experienced increases of 40% and 26% in both domestic service requests and service providers, respectively. A service request can be transmitted to and accepted by more than one service professional.

Operating Income Before Amortization increased 2% to $2.9 million reflecting the reversal in 2010 of a $1.5 million provision for contingent consideration related to the 2009 acquisition of Market Hardware, which will not be earned. Operating Income Before Amortization was adversely impacted by increases of $9.2 million in selling and marketing expense and $2.4 million in general and administrative expense. The increase in selling and marketing expense is primarily driven by an increase of $7.5 million in advertising and promotional expenditures associated with online and offline marketing. The growth in service requests during the year from paid channels outpaced the growth in free requests as a result of the increase in marketing. Also contributing to the increase in selling and marketing expense is an increase in compensation and other employee-related costs, due in part, to the continued expansion of its sales force. The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily due to an increase of $1.3 million in compensation and other employee-related costs driven by growth in headcount related to acquisitions that took place in 2009.

Operating income increased 20% to $2.4 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating Income Before Amortization described above and slight decreases in amortization of intangibles and non-cash compensation expense.

Media & Other

Revenue increased 20% to $55.9 million primarily reflecting the growth at Pronto, driven by continued improvements in customer acquisition and monetization, as well as growth at The Daily Beast, Gifts.com and Vimeo. Also impacting revenue is the inclusion in the current year period of revenue associated with profit participations related to our interests in Reveille, partially offset by revenue in the prior year period associated with ReserveAmerica before its sale on January 31, 2009.

Operating Income Before Amortization loss decreased by $4.3 million to a loss of $6.8 million. Losses decreased due primarily to $3.1 million in profit participations related to our interests in Reveille noted above, $2.9 million in cost savings related to the shutdown or sale of certain businesses that took place in 2009 and profitability at Gifts.com, partially offset by increased operating expenses associated with The Daily Beast and Electus.

Operating loss decreased by $3.6 million to $9.2 million primarily due to the decreased Operating Income Before Amortization loss described above, the impact in 2009 of a $1.1 million goodwill impairment charge related to our gift card business, partially offset by increases in non-cash compensation expense and amortization of intangibles of $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

Corporate

Operating Income Before Amortization loss decreased by $1.8 million to a loss of $13.2 million primarily due to lower depreciation expense, taxes and professional fees.

Operating loss increased $1.2 million to $34.4 million despite the decrease in Operating Income Before Amortization loss described above due to an increase of $3.0 million in non-cash compensation expense. The increase in non-cash compensation is primarily due to the expense related to equity grants issued subsequent to the first quarter of 2009.

FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had $952.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $575.1 million of marketable securities and $95.8 million in long-term debt. Long-term debt consists of $80.0 million in Liberty Bonds due September 1, 2035 and $15.8 million in 7% Senior Notes due 2013.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company purchased 11.1 million and 2.4 million shares of IAC common stock for aggregate consideration, on a trade date basis, of $245.5 million and $36.6 million, respectively. On February 26, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 20 million shares of IAC common stock. At April 23, 2010, IAC had approximately 19.2 million shares remaining in its share repurchase authorization. IAC may purchase shares over an indefinite period of time, depending on those factors IAC management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market conditions, share price and future outlook.

Net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations was $56.4 million and $48.7 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively. The increase of $7.7 million in net cash provided by operating activities attributable to continuing operations is primarily due to higher cash tax refunds in 2010, partially offset by the payment of the 2009 discretionary cash bonuses in 2010, whereas the 2008 discretionary cash bonus was paid in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2010 of $108.9 million includes $89.3 million related to the net purchases, sales and maturities of marketable debt securities, capital expenditures of $12.6 million and acquisitions, net of cash acquired, of $9.8 million, partially offset by the proceeds of $5.3 million from the sale of the Company's remaining shares of OpenTable. Net cash used in investing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2009 of $121.4 million includes $91.6 million related to the net purchases, sales and maturities of marketable debt securities, acquisitions, net of cash acquired, of $11.5 million and capital expenditures of $8.6 million.

Net cash used in financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2010 of $238.9 million includes the purchase of treasury stock of $246.2 million, partially offset by excess tax benefits from stock-based awards of $4.8 million. Net cash provided by financing activities attributable to continuing operations in 2009 of $120.7 million includes the proceeds related to the issuance of common stock, net of withholding taxes, of $148.8 million, partially offset by the purchase of treasury stock of $29.2 million. Included in the proceeds related to the issuance of common stock are aggregate proceeds of $150.9 million from the exercise of warrants to acquire 11.5 million shares of IAC common stock that were due to expire on February 4, 2009. The strike price of the warrants was $13.09 per share.

IAC anticipates that it will need to make capital and other expenditures in connection with the development and expansion of its overall operations. The Company may make a number of acquisitions which could result in the reduction of its cash balance or the incurrence of debt. IAC expects that 2010 capital expenditures will be slightly higher than 2009. IAC believes that its cash on hand along with its anticipated operating cash flows in 2010 and its access to capital markets are sufficient to fund its operating needs, capital, investing and other commitments and contingencies for the foreseeable future.

IAC'S PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

IAC reports Operating Income Before Amortization as a supplemental measure to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This measure is one of the primary metrics by which we evaluate the performance of our businesses, on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. We believe that investors should have access to, and we are obligated to provide, the same set of tools that we use in analyzing our results. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. IAC endeavors to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence, financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and descriptions of the reconciling items, including quantifying such items, to derive the non-GAAP measure. We encourage investors to examine the reconciling adjustments between the GAAP and non-GAAP measure which we discuss below.

Definition of IAC's Non-GAAP Measure

Operating Income Before Amortization is defined as operating income excluding, if applicable: (1) non-cash compensation expense, (2) amortization of non-cash marketing, (3) amortization and impairment of intangibles, (4) goodwill impairment, (5) pro forma adjustments for significant acquisitions, and (6) one-time items. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it represents the consolidated operating results from IAC's segments, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the effects of any other non-cash expenses. Operating Income Before Amortization has certain limitations in that it does not take into account the impact to IAC's statement of operations of certain expenses, including non-cash compensation, non-cash marketing, and acquisition-related accounting.

Pro Forma Results

We will only present Operating Income Before Amortization on a pro forma basis if we view a particular transaction as significant in size or transformational in nature. For the periods presented in this report, there are no transactions that we have included on a pro forma basis.

One-Time Items

Operating Income Before Amortization is presented before one-time items, if applicable. These items are truly one-time in nature and non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, and have not occurred in the past two years or are not expected to recur in the next two years, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules. For the periods presented in this report, there are no one-time items.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded From IAC's Non-GAAP Measure

Non-cash compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions, of restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock options. These expenses are not paid in cash, and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding which, for restricted stock units and stock options, are included on a treasury method basis. Upon vesting of restricted stock and restricted stock units and the exercise of certain stock options, the awards are settled, at the Company's discretion, on a net basis, with the Company remitting the required tax withholding amount from its current funds.

Amortization of non-cash marketing consists of non-cash advertising credits secured from Universal Television as part of the transaction pursuant to which VUE was created, and the subsequent transaction by which IAC sold its partnership interests in VUE (collectively referred to as "NBC Universal Advertising"). The NBC Universal Advertising was available for television advertising on

various NBC Universal network and cable channels without any cash cost. There are no NBC Universal Advertising credits available as all credits were used prior to December 31, 2009.

The NBC Universal Advertising is excluded from Operating Income Before Amortization because it is non-cash and generally is incremental to the advertising the Company otherwise secures as a result of its ordinary cost/benefit marketing planning process. Accordingly, the Company's aggregate level of advertising, and the increased concentration of that advertising on NBC Universal network and cable channels, does not reflect what our advertising effort would otherwise be without these credits. As a result, management believes that treating the NBC Universal Advertising as an expense does not appropriately reflect its true cost/benefit relationship, nor does it best reflect the Company's long-term level of advertising expenditures. Nonetheless, while the benefits directly attributable to television advertising are always difficult to determine, and especially so with respect to the NBC Universal Advertising due to its incrementality and heavy concentration, it is likely that the Company does derive benefits from it, though management believes such benefits are generally less than those received through its regular advertising for the reasons stated above. Operating Income Before Amortization therefore has the limitation of including those benefits while excluding the associated expense.

Amortization of intangibles (including impairment of intangibles, if applicable) is a non-cash expense relating primarily to acquisitions. At the time of an acquisition, the intangible assets of the acquired company, such as technology and supplier agreements, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, which are not subject to amortization. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value. While it is likely that we will have intangible amortization expense as we continue to acquire companies, we believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization is not an ongoing cost of doing business.

RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING INCOME BEFORE AMORTIZATION

For a reconciliation of Operating Income Before Amortization to operating income (loss) by business and to net loss attributable to IAC shareholders in total for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, see Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's investment portfolio and long-term debt.

Investment Portfolio

The Company invests its excess cash in certain cash equivalents and marketable securities, which consist primarily of money market instruments and short-to-intermediate-term debt securities issued by the U.S. government, U.S. governmental agencies, states of the U.S. and subdivisions thereof and investment grade corporate issuers. The Company employs a methodology that considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairment of its investments. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary. If a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded and a new cost basis in the investment is established.

Based on the Company's total debt investment securities as of March 31, 2010, a 100 basis point increase or decrease in the level of interest rates would, respectively, decrease or increase the fair value of the debt investment securities by $4.1 million. Such potential increase or decrease in fair value is based on certain simplifying assumptions, including a constant level and rate of debt securities and an immediate across-the-board increase or decrease in the level of interest rates with no other subsequent changes for the remainder of the period. Conversely, since almost all of the Company's cash balance of approximately $952.3 million is invested in variable rate interest earning assets, the Company would also earn more (less) interest income due to such an increase (decrease) in interest rates.

Long-term Debt

At March 31, 2010, the Company's outstanding debt approximated $95.8 million, all of which pays interest at fixed rates. If market rates decline, the Company runs the risk that the related required payments on the fixed rate debt will exceed those based on market rates. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in the level of interest rates would, respectively, decrease or increase the fair value of the fixed-rate debt by $11.1 million. Such potential increase or decrease in fair value is based on certain simplifying assumptions, including a constant level and rate of fixed-rate debt for all maturities and an immediate across-the-board increase or decrease in the level of interest rates with no other subsequent changes for the remainder of the period.

Equity Price Risk

At March 31, 2010, the Company had investments in equity securities of publicly traded companies that are considered available-for-sale marketable equity securities and are included in "Long-term investments" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. These available-for-sale marketable equity securities, with the exception of the Company's investment in Meetic, are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices with unrealized gains or losses on these securities, net of tax, included as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. These investments in equity securities of publicly traded companies may be subject to significant fluctuations in fair value due to the volatility of the stock market, among other factors. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not record any other-than-temporary impairment charges related to its available-for-sale marketable equity securities. It is not customary for the Company to make significant investments in equity securities as part of its marketable securities investment strategy.

On June 5, 2009, in exchange for Match Europe, IAC received approximately 6.1 million shares of common stock (a 27% stake) in Meetic, an online dating company based in France. Meetic shares are listed on the Euronext stock exchange (EPA: MEET) and as a result, IAC is exposed to changes in Meetic's stock price. The investment in Meetic is accounted for using the equity method and the Company records its share of the results of Meetic and related amortization of intangibles on a one-quarter lag within "Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The carrying value of the Meetic investment is $151.5 million (€105.3 million) at March 31, 2010. The fair value of the Meetic investment, based on its quoted market price, was $184.9 million (€138.3 million) at March 31, 2010.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The Company conducts business in certain foreign markets, primarily in the European Union. The Company's primary exposure to foreign currency risk relates to investments in foreign subsidiaries that transact business in a functional currency other than the U.S. Dollar, primarily the Euro and British Pound Sterling. However, the exposure is mitigated since the Company has generally reinvested profits from international operations in order to grow the businesses. The statements of operations of the Company's international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in reduced revenue and operating income. Similarly, the Company's revenue and operating income will increase for our international operations if the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies. The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk related to its assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other than the functional currency.

The economic impact of currency exchange rate movements on the Company is often linked to variability in real growth, inflation, interest rates, governmental actions and other factors. These changes, if material, could cause the Company to adjust its financing and operating strategies. Foreign exchange gains and losses were not material to the Company's earnings in 2010 and 2009. As currency exchange rates change, translation of the income statements of the Company's international businesses into U.S. dollars affects year-over-year comparability of operating results. Historically, the Company has not hedged foreign currency translation risks because cash flows from international operations were generally reinvested locally. However, the Company periodically reviews its strategy for hedging foreign currency translation risks. The Company's objective in managing its foreign currency risk is to minimize its potential exposure to the changes that exchange rates might have on its earnings, cash flows and financial position.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company monitors and evaluates on an ongoing basis its disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting in order to improve its overall effectiveness. In the course of these evaluations, the Company modifies and refines its internal processes as conditions warrant.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and Forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also evaluated whether any changes occurred to the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such control. Based on that evaluation, the Company concluded that there has been no such change during the period covered by this report.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, and other claims. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage.

Rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission require the description of material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary, routine litigation incident to the registrant's business, and advise that proceedings ordinarily need not be described if they primarily involve damages claims for amounts (exclusive of interest and costs) not exceeding 10% of the current assets of the registrant and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In the judgment of management, none of the pending litigation matters that the Company and its subsidiaries are defending, including the matter described below, involves or is likely to involve amounts of that magnitude. The litigation matter described below involves issues or claims that may be of particular interest to the Company's shareholders, regardless of whether this matter may be material to the financial position or operations of the Company based upon the standard set forth in the SEC's rules.

Securities Class Action Litigation against IAC

This litigation matter, In re IAC/InterActiveCorp Securities Litigation, is described in detail on pages 20-21 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, which description is hereby updated as set forth immediately below.

On March 19, 2010, the district court issued a memorandum opinion and order granting the defendants' motion and dismissing the second amended complaint with prejudice. Judgment was entered on March 20, 2010 and the plaintiffs' time to appeal has expired. On April 1, 2010, as a result of the district court's ruling, the plaintiffs' appeal from the dismissal of the complaint in the two related consolidated shareholder derivative suits was dismissed with prejudice on consent.
