Explanation of Responses:
1. Reflects the acquisition of common stock, par value $0.01, of Tree.com ("Tree.com") in connection with the spin-off by IAC/InterActiveCorp ("IAC") of Tree.com, which was completed following the close of the market on August 20, 2008. The distribution of Tree.com common stock was effected by way of a dividend, pursuant to which holders of IAC common stock on August 11, 2008 received one-thirtieth of one share of Tree.com common stock for every one share of IAC common stock held.
2. Reflects the receipt of Tree.com restricted stock units in respect of previously granted IAC restricted stock units in connection with the Spin-Off, with adjustments (to maintain pre- and post-spin-off values) to the number of shares of common stock underlying such restricted stock units, to reflect the Spin-Off and Reverse Stock Split. These previously granted restricted stock units have the same vesting and other applicable terms and conditions as they did immediately prior to the Spin-off and Reverse Stock Split.
3. In connection with the Spin-Off, these previously granted restricted stock units were converted into restricted stock units of each of IAC, HSN, ILG, TM and Tree.com, with adjustments (to maintain pre- and post-spin-off values) to the number of shares of common stock underlying such restricted stock units to reflect the Spin-Off and Reverse Stock Split. These previously granted restricted stock units have the same vesting and other applicable terms and conditions as they did immediately prior to the Spin-off and Reverse Stock Split. Reflects the receipt of Tree.com restricted stock units in connection with the adjustment described immediately above.
4. Also reflects an amendment made to the terms of previously granted performance-based restricted stock units in contemplation of the Spin-Off to fix the number of shares of common stock subject to the award and remove the performance conditions.
