Introductory Note

On April 30, 2012, CoStar Group, Inc. (“CoStar”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) in connection with the completion of its acquisition of LoopNet, Inc. (“LoopNet”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 27, 2011, as amended May 20, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”), among CoStar, Lonestar Acquisition Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of CoStar (“Merger Sub”), and LoopNet. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into LoopNet and LoopNet became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CoStar (the “Merger”). On June 22, 2012, CoStar filed with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “June 8-K Amendment”) to amend Item 9.01 of the Original Form 8-K to present certain historical financial statements of LoopNet (the “LoopNet Financial Statements”) and to present certain unaudited pro forma financial information in connection with the Merger, which financial statements and unaudited pro forma financial information were filed as exhibits to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A. The June 8-K Amendment incorporated the LoopNet Financial Statements by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed by LoopNet (SEC File No. 000-52026) on February 24, 2012 (the “LoopNet 10-K”) and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 filed by LoopNet on April 27, 2012 (the “LoopNet 10-Q”). This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Original Form 8-K and the June 8-K Amendment to file as exhibits the pertinent pages from the LoopNet 10-K and the LoopNet 10-Q.
