Explanation of Responses:
1. Reflects the acquisition of common stock, par value $0.01, of Tree.com, Inc. ("Tree.com") in connection with the spin-off by IAC/InterActiveCorp ("IAC") of Tree.com (the "Spin-off"), 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 share of IAC common stock held.
2. Represents the withholding of shares of Tree.com common stock to cover the payment of taxes in connection with the settlement of restricted stock units. No shares of Tree.com common stock were sold in connection with this settlement and related withholding.
3. In connection with the Spin-off, options to purchase IAC common stock granted prior to December 31, 2007 were converted into options to purchase common stock of each of IAC, HSN, ILG, Ticketmaster and Tree.com, with adjustments (to maintain pre- and post-Spin-off values) to the number of shares of common stock underlying each option and the per share exercise prices to reflect the Spin-off and reverse stock split. The post-conversion stock options have the same vesting and other applicable terms and conditions as such stock options had immediately prior to the Spin-off. Reflects the receipt of options to purchase Tree.com common stock in connection with the adjustment described immediately above.
4. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of Tree.com common stock.
5. These restricted stock units vest in full on February 6, 2011.
