ANGI HOMESERVICES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of operations
ANGI Homeservices Inc. connects quality home service pros across 500 different categories, from repairing and remodeling to cleaning and landscaping, with consumers. Over 250,000 service professionals find work through ANGI Homeservices, and consumers turn to at least one of our brands to find a pro for more than 20 million projects each year. We’ve established category-transforming products with brands such as HomeAdvisor®, Angie’s List® and Handy.
At March 31, 2019, IAC owned 83.3% and 98.0% of the economic and voting interest, respectively, of ANGI Homeservices.
The Company has two operating segments (i) North America (United States and Canada), which includes HomeAdvisor, Angie's List, Handy, mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair, LLC and Fixd Services LLC (collectively, "Fixd Repair") and Felix, for periods prior to its sale on December 31, 2018, and (ii) Europe, which includes Travaux, MyHammer, My Builder, Werkspot and Instapro.
As used herein, "ANGI Homeservices," the "Company," "ANGI," "we," "our" or "us" and similar terms refer to ANGI Homeservices Inc and its subsidiaries (unless the context requires otherwise).
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
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. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
For the purpose of these financial statements, income taxes have been computed as if ANGI Homeservices filed on a standalone, separate tax return basis.
In management's opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated and combined financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Accounting Estimates
Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions during the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates, judgments and assumptions impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to: the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets; the useful lives and recoverability of definite-lived intangible assets and property and equipment; the fair values of cash equivalents and marketable debt securities; the carrying value of accounts receivable, including the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts; the determination of revenue reserves; unrecognized tax benefits; the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets; and the fair value of and forfeiture rates for stock-based awards, among others. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, its forecasts and budgets and other factors that the Company considers relevant.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)



Adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842") effective January 1, 2019. ASC 842 superseded previously existing guidance on accounting for leases and generally requires all leases to be recognized in the statement of financial position.
The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of $69.4 million of right of use assets ("ROU assets") and related lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019, with no cumulative effect adjustment. The adoption of ASC 842 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows. In addition, the adoption of ASC 842 did not impact the leverage calculation set forth in the agreement governing the Company's outstanding debt and revolving credit facility because, in each circumstance, the leverage calculation is not affected by the lease liabilities that were recorded upon adoption of ASC 842.
The Company adopted ASC 842 prospectively and, therefore, did not revise comparative period information or disclosure. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under ASC 842.
See "Note 3—Leases" for additional information on the adoption of ASC 842.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 2—REVENUE RECOGNITION
General Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services or goods is transferred to our customers, and in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services or goods.
The Company's disaggregated revenue disclosures are presented in "Note 10—Segment Information."
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of payments that are received or are contractually due in advance of the Company's performance. The Company’s deferred revenue is reported on a contract by contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current when the term of the applicable subscription period or expected completion of our performance obligation is one year or less. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances at December 31, 2018 are $61.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized $36.4 million of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2018. The current and non-current deferred revenue balances at March 31, 2019 are $62.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Non-current deferred revenue is included in “Other long-term liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Practical Expedients and Exemptions
As permitted under the practical expedient available under ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts with variable consideration that is allocated entirely to unsatisfied performance obligations or to a wholly unsatisfied promise accounted for under the series guidance, and (iii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
For sales incentive programs where the customer relationship period is one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense the costs as incurred. The amount of capitalized sales commissions where the customer relationship period is greater than one year is $40.3 million and $38.8 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

NOTE 3—LEASES
The Company leases office space and equipment used in connection with its operations under various operating leases, the majority of which contain escalation clauses. The Company does not have any financing leases.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying assets for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the present value of the Company’s obligation to make payments arising from leases. ROU assets and related lease liabilities are based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term using the Company's incremental borrowing rate on the lease commencement date or January 1, 2019 for leases that commenced prior to that date. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components of lease payments in determining ROU assets and related lease liabilities. If the lease includes one or more options to extend the term of the lease, the renewal option is considered in the lease term if it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise the option. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less ("short-term leases") are not recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Variable lease payments consist primarily of common area maintenance, utilities and taxes, which are not included in the recognition of ROU assets and related lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

NOTE 4—INCOME TAXES
The Company is included within IAC’s tax group for purposes of federal and consolidated state income tax return filings. In all periods presented, current and deferred income tax benefit and provision have been computed for the Company on an as if standalone, separate return basis. The Company’s payments to IAC for its share of IAC’s consolidated federal and state tax return liabilities have been reflected within cash flows from operating activities in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows. The tax sharing agreement between the Company and IAC governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax matters, including responsibility for taxes attributable to the Company, entitlement to refunds, allocation of tax attributes and other matters. Any differences between taxes currently due or receivable under the tax sharing agreement and the current tax provision computed on an as if standalone, separate return basis for GAAP are payable to or receivable from IAC and are reflected as adjustments to additional paid-in capital.
At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective income 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, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or unrecognized tax benefits is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
The computation of the annual expected effective income tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of

11

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)



income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of the realizability of 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 income tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in income tax provision in the quarter in which the change occurs.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $14.2 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 326% and is higher than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $4.0 million, which represents an effective income tax rate of 30% and was higher than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to excess tax benefits generated by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards and state taxes, partially offset by unbenefited foreign losses.
The Company recognizes interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax provision. Accruals for interest and penalties are not material.
The Company is routinely under audit by federal, state, local and foreign authorities in the area of income tax as a result of previously filed separate company and consolidated tax returns with IAC. These audits include questioning the timing and the amount of income and deductions and the allocation of income and deductions among various tax jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing IAC’s federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2010 through 2016, which includes the operations of the HomeAdvisor business. The statute of limitations for the years 2010 through 2015 has been extended to December 31, 2019. Returns filed in various other jurisdictions are open to examination for various tax years beginning with 2009. Income taxes payable include unrecognized tax benefits considered sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examination of prior year tax returns. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes and, therefore, may require periodic adjustment. Although management currently believes changes in unrecognized tax benefits from period to period and differences between amounts paid, if any, upon resolution of issues raised in audits and amounts previously provided will not have a material impact on 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.
At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, are $2.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively, for tax positions included in IAC’s consolidated tax return filings. If unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2019 are subsequently recognized, the income tax provision would be reduced by $2.5 million. The comparable amount as of December 31, 2018 is $2.4 million. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $1.0 million due to potential settlements, which would reduce the income tax provision.
The Company regularly assesses the realizability of deferred tax assets considering all available evidence including, to the extent applicable, the nature, frequency and severity of prior cumulative losses, forecasts of future taxable income, tax filing status, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, available tax planning and historical experience. As of March 31, 2019, the Company has a U.S. gross deferred tax asset of $130.3 million that the Company expects to fully utilize on a more likely than not basis. Of this amount, $33.6 million will be utilized upon the future reversal of deferred tax liabilities and the remaining net deferred tax asset of $96.7 million will be utilized based on forecasts of future taxable income.
NOTE 5—BUSINESS COMBINATION
On October 19, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of Handy Technologies, Inc. ("Handy"), a leading platform in the United States for connecting individuals looking for household services. The Company's purchase accounting is not yet complete, including the determination of purchase price, the value of the indemnified liabilities and related assets and the allocation of purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. There were no material adjustments recorded during the first quarter of 2019 related to purchase accounting and the preliminary values are not expected to be finalized until the fourth quarter of 2019.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale marketable debt securities were $25.0 million. The specific-identification method is used to determine the cost of available-for-sale marketable debt securities sold and the amount of unrealized gains and losses reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings. There were no gross realized gains or losses from the maturities of available-for-sale marketable debt securities for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The Company did not hold any available-for-sale marketable debt securities prior to the third quarter of 2018.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company categorizes its financial instruments 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 obtained from independent sources, such as quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 2: Other inputs, which are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted market 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 values of the Company's Level 2 financial assets are 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 an 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 assets or liabilities.

Term Loan and Credit Facility
At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the outstanding balance of the five-year term loan facility ("Term Loan") was $257.8 million and $261.3 million, respectively. At both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%. The spread over LIBOR is subject to change in future periods based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio. The interest rate was 4.00% and 3.98% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the term of the loan. Additionally, there are quarterly principal payments of $3.4 million through December 31, 2021, $6.9 million for the one year period ending December 31, 2022 and $10.3 million through maturity of the loan when the final amount of $161.6 million is due.
The terms of the Term Loan require the Company to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of not more than 4.5 to 1.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.0 to 1.0 (in each case as defined in the credit agreement). The Term Loan also contains covenants that would limit the Company's ability to pay dividends, make distributions or repurchase its stock in the event a default has occurred or its consolidated net leverage ratio exceeds 4.25 to 1.0. There are additional covenants under the Term Loan that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions.
On November 5, 2018, the Company entered into a five-year $250 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. The annual commitment fee on undrawn funds is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio most recently reported, and is 25 basis points at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at either a base rate or LIBOR, in each case plus an applicable margin, which is based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio. The financial and other covenants are the same as those for the Term Loan.

________________________
(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 appreciation rights, stock options and subsidiary denominated equity and vesting of restricted stock units. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, 4.2 million potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
(b) 
Performance-based stock units (“PSUs”) are considered contingently issuable shares. Shares issuable upon vesting of PSUs are included in the denominator for earnings per share if (i) the applicable performance condition(s) has been met and (ii) the inclusion of the PSUs is dilutive for the respective reporting periods. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, 0.8 million shares underlying PSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the performance condition(s) had not been met.
(c) 
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company had a loss from operations and as a result, approximately 50.8 million potentially dilutive securities were excluded from computing dilutive earnings per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the weighted average basic shares outstanding were used to compute diluted earnings per share amounts.
NOTE 10—SEGMENT INFORMATION
The overall concept that the Company employs in determining its operating segments is to present the financial information in a manner consistent with: how the chief operating decision maker views the businesses; how the businesses are organized as to segment management; and the focus of the businesses with regards to the types of services or products offered or the target market.

(c) 
The Company’s primary financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable. The Company believes this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. Moreover, our management uses this measure internally to evaluate the performance of our businesses, and this measure is one of the primary metrics on which our internal budgets are based and by which management is compensated. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.

NOTE 12—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. The Company also evaluates other contingent matters, including income and non-income tax contingencies, to assess the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and estimated extent of potential loss. It is possible that an unfavorable outcome of one or more of these lawsuits or other contingencies could have a material impact on the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of the Company. See "Note 4—Income Taxes" for additional information related to income tax contingencies.

NOTE 13—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS WITH IAC
The Company and IAC entered into certain agreements to govern our relationship following the combination of IAC's HomeAdvisor business and Angie's List, Inc. on September 29, 2017 (the "Combination"). These agreements include: a contribution agreement; an investor rights agreement; a services agreement; a tax sharing agreement; and an employee matters agreement.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company was charged $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively, by IAC for services rendered pursuant to the services agreement, which were paid in full by the Company at March 31, 2019. At December 31, 2018, the Company had an outstanding receivable due from IAC of $0.1 million, pursuant to the services agreement. This amount was deducted from the charges due to IAC pursuant to the services agreement discussed above during the first quarter of 2019.
At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had outstanding payables of $0.7 million and $12.1 million due to IAC pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, which is included in "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, $11.4 million was paid to IAC pursuant to this agreement.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, 0.3 million and 0.7 million shares of ANGI Homeservices Class B common stock were issued to IAC, respectively, pursuant to the employee matters agreement as reimbursement for shares of IAC common stock issued in connection with the exercise and vesting of IAC equity awards held by ANGI Homeservices employees.
Long-term debt—related party
Immediately prior to the Combination, the Company, through a foreign subsidiary, sold a promissory note in the amount of 2.4 million to a foreign subsidiary of IAC. During the first quarter of 2019, the amount outstanding on the promissory note at December 31, 2018 of 0.9 million, or $1.0 million, was repaid.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
GENERAL
Management Overview
ANGI Homeservices Inc. ("ANGI Homeservices," the "Company," "ANGI," "we," "our," or "us") connects quality home service pros across 500 different categories, from repairing and remodeling to cleaning and landscaping, with consumers. Over 250,000 service professionals find work through ANGI Homeservices, and consumers turn to at least one of our brands to find a pro for more than 20 million projects each year. We’ve established category-transforming products with brands such as HomeAdvisor®, Angie’s List® and Handy.
The Company has two operating segments: (i) North America (United States and Canada), which includes HomeAdvisor, Angie's List, Handy, mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair, LLC and Fixd Services LLC (collectively, "Fixd Repair") and Felix, for periods prior to its sale on December 31, 2018, and (ii) Europe, which includes Travaux, MyHammer, MyBuilder, Werkspot and Instapro.
For a more detailed description of the Company's operating businesses, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
Operating Metrics:
In connection with the management of our businesses, we identify, measure and assess a variety of operating metrics. The principal metrics we use in managing our businesses are set forth below:
Marketplace Revenue includes revenue from the HomeAdvisor and Handy domestic marketplace, including consumer connection revenue for consumer matches, membership subscription revenue from HomeAdvisor service professionals and revenue from completed jobs sourced through the Handy platform. It excludes revenue from Angie's List, mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair and Felix.
Advertising & Other Revenue includes Angie’s List revenue (revenue from service professionals under contract for advertising and membership subscription fees from consumers) as well as revenue from mHelpDesk, HomeStars, Fixd Repair (acquired on January 25, 2019) and, for periods prior to its sale on December 31, 2018, Felix.
Marketplace Service Requests are fully completed and submitted domestic customer service requests to HomeAdvisor and completed jobs sourced through the Handy platform.
Marketplace Paying Service Professionals ("Marketplace Paying SPs") are the number of HomeAdvisor and Handy domestic service professionals that had an active subscription and/or paid for consumer matches or completed a job sourced through the Handy platform in the last month of the period. An active HomeAdvisor subscription is a subscription for which HomeAdvisor was recognizing revenue on the last day of the relevant period.
Advertising Service Professionals are the total number of Angie’s List service professionals under contract for advertising at the end of the period.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Marketplace Revenue is primarily derived from (i) consumer connection revenue, which comprises fees paid by HomeAdvisor service professionals for consumer matches (regardless of whether the service professional ultimately provides the requested service) and booking fees from completed jobs sourced through the Handy platform, and (ii) membership subscription fees paid by HomeAdvisor service professionals. Consumer connection revenue varies based upon several factors, including the service requested, product experience offered and geographic location of service. Advertising & Other Revenue is primarily derived from Angie's List (i) sales of time-based website, mobile and call center advertising to service professionals and (ii) membership subscription fees from consumers.

Table of Contents

Operating Costs and Expenses:
Cost of revenue - consists primarily of credit card processing fees, hosting fees, costs associated with publishing and distributing the Angie's List Magazine and traffic acquisition costs. Traffic acquisition costs include amounts based on revenue share arrangements which relate to Felix for periods prior to its sale.
Selling and marketing expense - consists primarily of advertising expenditures, which include online marketing, including fees paid to search engines, offline marketing, which is primarily television advertising, and partner-related payments to those who direct traffic to our brands, compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs for our sales force and marketing personnel, and facilities costs.
General and administrative expense - consists primarily of compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs for personnel engaged in executive management, finance, legal, tax, human resources and customer service functions, fees for professional services (including transaction-related costs related to acquisitions), bad debt expense, software license and maintenance costs and facilities costs. Our customer service function includes personnel who provide support to our service professionals and consumers.
Product development expense - consists primarily of compensation expense (including stock-based compensation expense) and other employee-related costs that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the design, development, testing and enhancement of product offerings and related technology, software license and maintenance costs and facilities costs.
Non-GAAP financial measure
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Principles of Financial Reporting” for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of net earnings (loss) attributable to ANGI Homeservices Inc. shareholders to operating loss to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
The Combination
On September 29, 2017, IAC/InterActiveCorp's ("IAC") HomeAdvisor business and Angie's List, Inc. ("Angie's List") combined under a new publicly traded company called ANGI Homeservices Inc. (the "Combination"). At March 31, 2019, IAC owned 83.3% and 98.0% of the economic and voting interest, respectively, of ANGI Homeservices.
During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $9.6 million and $19.1 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense related to the modification of previously issued HomeAdvisor equity awards and previously issued Angie's List equity awards, both of which were converted into ANGI Homeservices' equity awards in the Combination, and the acceleration of certain converted equity awards resulting from the termination of Angie's List employees in connection with the Combination. Stock-based compensation expense arising from the Combination is expected to be approximately $25 million for the remainder of 2019 and $20 million in 2020.
2019 Developments
On January 25, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of Fixd Repair, a home warranty and service company.
First Quarter 2019 Consolidated Results
Revenue increased $48.1 million, or 19%, which was primarily driven by Marketplace Revenue growth of $54.3 million, or 33%, and growth in Europe of $2.2 million, or 11%, partially offset by a decrease of $8.3 million, or 12%, in Advertising & Other Revenue driven principally by the sale of Felix.
Operating loss decreased $7.1 million, or 66%, to $3.6 million due primarily to decreases of $5.6 million in stock-based compensation expense and $1.8 million in amortization of intangibles and an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $0.5 million, partially offset by an increase of $0.8 million in depreciation. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $9.5 million in modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination, partially offset by $2.9 million of expense related to new awards issued in connection with the acquisitions of Handy (acquired on October 19, 2018) and Fixd Repair. The decrease in amortization of intangibles

23

Table of Contents

was due primarily to lower expense from the Combination, partially offset by an increase in amortization expense related to the acquisition of Handy.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 1% to $37.2 million, growing slower than revenue, due primarily to higher selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue, an increase of $4.9 million in bad debt expense due, in part, to higher Marketplace Revenue, and investments in Handy and Fixd Repair, partially offset by the inclusion in 2018 of $5.3 million in costs related to the Combination (including deferred revenue write offs, severance, retention and integration related costs).

North America revenue increased $46.0 million, or 19%, driven by an increase in Marketplace Revenue of $54.3 million, or 33%, partially offset by a decrease of $8.3 million, or 12%, in Advertising & Other Revenue. The increase in Marketplace Revenue is due to an increase in consumer connection revenue of $52.5 million, or 35%, which was driven by a 15% increase in Marketplace Service Requests to 5.8 million, including the contribution from Handy. The decrease in Advertising & Other Revenue was driven principally by the sale of Felix on December 31, 2018.
Europe revenue grew $2.2 million, or 11%, due to growth across several regions, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and British Pound.

The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to increased investments in online marketing and television spend. Compensation expense increased due primarily to growth in the sales force.

The decrease in compensation expense is due primarily to a decrease of $8.0 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in headcount resulting from existing business growth. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense reflects a decrease of $8.8 million in expense due to the modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($7.9 million in 2019 compared to $16.7 million in 2018).
Europe general and administrative expense decreased $0.5 million, or 6%, due primarily to a reduction in facilities costs of $0.2 million and lower stock-based compensation expense.

North America operating income increased $6.1 million to $0.7 million from a loss of $5.4 million in 2018, due primarily to decreases of $5.5 million in stock-based compensation expense and $1.2 million in amortization of intangibles and an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million described below, partially offset by an increase of $0.6 million in depreciation. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was due primarily to a decrease of $9.5 million in modification and acceleration charges related to the Combination ($9.6 million in 2019 compared to $19.1 million in 2018), partially offset by $2.9 million of expense related to new awards issued in connection with the acquisitions of Handy and Fixd Repair. The decrease in amortization of intangibles was due primarily to lower expense from the Combination, partially offset by an increase in amortization expense related to the acquisition of Handy.
Europe operating loss decreased $1.0 million, or 19%, due primarily to a decrease of $0.6 million in amortization of intangibles, a reduction in Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.5 million described below and a decrease of $0.1 million in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase of $0.2 million in depreciation.
At March 31, 2019, there is $148.5 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 2.7 years.

North America Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.1 million to $39.7 million, growing slower than revenue due primarily to higher selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue, an increase of $4.7 million in bad debt expense, due, in part, to higher Marketplace Revenue, and investments in Handy and Fixd Repair, partially offset by the inclusion in 2018 of $5.3 million in costs related to the Combination (including deferred revenue write offs, severance, retention and integration-related costs).
Europe Adjusted EBITDA loss decreased $0.5 million, or 15%, due primarily to the increase of $2.2 million in revenue, partially offset by an increase in advertising expense of $1.7 million.
Interest expense

Interest expense—third-party relates to interest on a five-year term loan, which is due on November 5, 2023, and commitment fees on an undrawn five-year revolving credit facility of $250 million, which commenced on November 5, 2018.
Interest expense—related party includes interest charged by a foreign subsidiary of IAC, which was settled during the first quarter of 2019.

PRINCIPLES OF FINANCIAL REPORTING

We report Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to U.S. 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, however, should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. We endeavor to compensate for the limitations of the non-GAAP measure presented by providing the comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence 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 Non-GAAP Measure
Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") is defined as operating income excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) depreciation; and (3) acquisition-related items consisting of amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable. We believe this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations because it excludes the impact of these expenses.

Non-Cash Expenses That Are Excluded from Non-GAAP Measure
Stock-based compensation expense consists principally of expense associated with the grants, including unvested grants assumed in acquisitions (including the Combination), of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), stock options and performance-based RSUs. These expenses are not paid in cash, and we include the related shares in our fully diluted shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. Performance-based RSUs are included only to the extent the applicable performance condition(s) have been met (assuming the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period). To the extent that stock-based awards are settled on a net basis, the Company remits the required tax-withholding amount from its current funds.
Depreciation is a non-cash expense relating to our property and equipment and is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the lease term, if shorter.

Table of Contents

Amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets are non-cash expenses related primarily to acquisitions (including the Combination). At the time of an acquisition, the identifiable definite-lived intangible assets of the acquired company, such as service professional relationships, technology, memberships, customer lists and user base, and trade names, are valued and amortized over their estimated lives. Value is also assigned to acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets, which comprise trade names and trademarks, and goodwill that are not subject to amortization. An impairment is recorded when the carrying value of an intangible asset or goodwill exceeds its fair value. We believe that intangible assets represent costs incurred by the acquired company to build value prior to acquisition and the related amortization and impairment charges of intangible assets or goodwill, if applicable, are not ongoing costs of doing business.

(5,424
)
Net cash provided by operating activities consists of earnings adjusted for non-cash items and the effect of changes in working capital. Non-cash adjustments include stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles, deferred income taxes, bad debt expense and depreciation.
2019
Adjustments to earnings consist primarily of $19.3 million of stock-based compensation expense, $14.5 million of amortization of intangibles, $14.3 million of bad debt expense and $7.0 million of depreciation, partially offset by $14.4 million of deferred income taxes. The deferred income tax benefit primarily relates to the net operating loss created by the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. The decrease from changes in working capital consists primarily of an increase in

32

Table of Contents

accounts receivable of $39.7 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and other liabilities of $11.9 million. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to revenue growth in North America and the timing of cash receipts. The increase in accounts payable and other liabilities is primarily due to an increase in accrued advertising.
Net cash provided by investing activities includes $25.0 million of proceeds from maturities of marketable debt securities, $23.7 million of net proceeds from the December 31, 2018 sale of Felix, partially offset by $20.3 million of cash principally used for the acquisition of Fixd Repair, and capital expenditures of $15.2 million, primarily related to investments in the development of capitalized software to support the Company's products and services.
Net cash used in financing activities includes $16.5 million for the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for stock-based awards that were net settled, a $11.4 million distribution to IAC pursuant to the tax sharing agreement, and a $3.4 million principal payment on the Term Loan.
2018
Adjustments to earnings consist primarily of $24.9 million of stock-based compensation expense, $16.3 million of amortization of intangibles, $9.4 million of bad debt expense and $6.2 million of depreciation, partially offset by $4.2 million of deferred income taxes. The deferred income tax benefit primarily relates to stock-based compensation expense. The decrease from changes in working capital consists primarily of an increase in accounts receivable of $17.7 million, an increase in other assets of $13.7 million and a decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities of $5.3 million, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $4.2 million. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily due to revenue growth in North America. The increase in other assets is primarily due to increases in capitalized sales commissions, prepaid marketing and prepaid software license and maintenance costs. The decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities is primarily due to a decrease in accrued employee compensation and benefits mainly related to the payment of 2017 cash bonuses in 2018, partially offset by an increase in accrued advertising. The increase in deferred revenue is due mainly to growth in subscription sales to service professionals.
Net cash provided by investing activities includes $10.4 million in net proceeds from the sale of Angie's List's campus located in Indianapolis, partially offset by $8.9 million of capital expenditures, primarily related to investments in the development of capitalized software to support the Company's products and services, leasehold improvements and computer hardware.
Net cash used in financing activities includes a $3.4 million principal payment on the Term Loan and $2.9 million for the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for stock-based awards that were net settled, partially offset by $1.8 million in proceeds from the exercise of ANGI stock options.
Liquidity and capital resources
On November 1, 2017, the Company borrowed $275 million under a five-year term loan facility ("Term Loan"). On November 5, 2018, the Term Loan was amended and restated, and is now due on November 5, 2023. Interest payments are due at least quarterly through the term of the loan. Additionally, there are quarterly principal payments of $3.4 million through December 31, 2021, $6.9 million for the one year period ending December 31, 2022 and $10.3 million through maturity of the loan when the final amount of $161.6 million is due. At March 31, 2019, the Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.50%, or 4.00%. The spread over LIBOR is subject to change in future periods based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio.
On November 5, 2018, the Company entered into a five-year $250 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). At March 31, 2019, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Both the Term Loan and Credit Facility borrowings are guaranteed by the Company's wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The terms of the Credit Facility and the Term Loan require ANGI to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of not more than 4.5 to 1.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.0 to 1.0. There are additional covenants under both the Term Loan and the Credit Facility that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness, pay dividends or make distributions.
On February 6, 2019, the Board of Directors of ANGI Homeservices authorized the Company to repurchase up to 15 million shares of its common stock. ANGI may purchase shares over an indefinite period of time on the open market and in

33

Table of Contents

privately negotiated transactions, depending on those factors ANGI management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market conditions, share price and future outlook.
In connection with the Combination, previously issued stock appreciation rights related to the common stock of HomeAdvisor (US) were converted into ANGI stock appreciation rights that are settleable, at the Company's option, on a net basis with ANGI remitting withholding taxes on behalf of the employee or on a gross basis with the Company issuing a sufficient number of Class A shares to cover the withholding taxes. In addition, at IAC's option, these awards can be settled in either Class A shares of ANGI or shares of IAC common stock. If settled in IAC common stock, ANGI reimburses IAC in either cash or through the issuance of Class A shares to IAC. Assuming all of the stock appreciation rights outstanding on May 3, 2019 were net settled on that date, ANGI would have issued 10.7 million Class A shares (either to award holders or to IAC as reimbursement) and ANGI would have remitted $197.3 million in cash for withholding taxes (assuming a 50% withholding rate). If the Company decided to issue a sufficient number of shares to cover the $197.3 million employee withholding tax obligation, 10.7 million additional Class A shares would be issued by ANGI. The Company's cash withholding obligation on all other ANGI net settled awards outstanding on May 3, 2019 is $64.4 million (assuming a 50% withholding rate), which is the equivalent of 3.5 million shares.
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company started to settle stock options on a net basis. Assuming all stock options outstanding on May 3, 2019, were net settled on that date, the Company would have issued 0.2 million common shares (of which 0.1 million is related to vested shares and less than 0.1 million is related to unvested shares) and would have remitted $2.9 million (of which $2.1 million is related to vested stock options and $0.8 million is related to unvested stock options) in cash for withholding taxes (assuming a 50% withholding rate).
In addition, prior to the Combination in 2017, IAC issued a number of IAC denominated PSUs to certain ANGI employees. Vesting of the PSUs is contingent upon ANGI's performance. These awards are settled in shares of IAC common stock. ANGI reimburses IAC, at IAC's option, in either cash or through the issuance of Class B shares to IAC. Assuming all of the PSUs outstanding on May 3, 2019 were net settled on that date, ANGI would have issued 0.7 million Class B shares to IAC as reimbursement and ANGI would have remitted $12.9 million in cash for withholding taxes (assuming a 50% withholding rate).
The Company believes its existing cash, cash equivalents, available borrowings under the Credit Facility and expected positive cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to fund its normal operating requirements, including capital expenditures, debt service, the payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees for any stock-based awards that may be net settled, and investing and other commitments, for the foreseeable future. The Company's 2019 capital expenditures are expected to be higher than 2018 by approximately 40% to 50%, driven, in part, by higher capital expenditures related to the development of capitalized software to support the Company's products and services. The Company's liquidity could be negatively affected by a decrease in demand for its products and services.
The Company’s indebtedness could limit its ability to: (i) obtain additional financing to fund working capital needs, acquisitions, capital expenditures or debt service or other requirements; and (ii) use operating cash flow to make certain acquisitions or investments, in the event a default has occurred or, in certain circumstances, if its leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility and Term Loan) exceeds the ratios set forth in the Term Loan. There were no such limitations at March 31, 2019.
At March 31, 2019, IAC held all Class B shares of ANGI which represent 83.3% of the economic interest and 98.0% of the voting interest of ANGI. As a result, IAC has the ability to control ANGI’s financing activities, including the issuance of additional debt and equity securities by ANGI or any of its subsidiaries, or the incurrence of other indebtedness generally. While ANGI is expected to have the ability to access debt and equity markets if needed, such transactions may require the approval of IAC due to its control of the majority of the outstanding voting power of ANGI’s capital stock and its representation on the ANGI board of directors. Additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to the Company or at all.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
The Company monitors and evaluates on an ongoing basis its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting in order to improve their 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"), the Company’s management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report 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.
There were no changes 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, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Overview
In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are (or may become) parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, intellectual property and other claims, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage. Although the results of legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is currently a party to any legal proceedings, the outcome of which, we believe, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
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 Company management, none of the pending litigation matters which we are defending, including the one 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 our stockholders, regardless of whether this matter may be material to our financial position or operations based upon the standard set forth in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Service Professional Class Action Litigation against HomeAdvisor   
In July 2016, a putative class action, Airquip, Inc. et al. v. HomeAdvisor, Inc. et al., No. l:16-cv-1849, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The complaint, as amended in November 2016, alleges that our HomeAdvisor business engages in certain deceptive practices affecting the service professionals who join its network, including charging them for substandard customer leads or failing to disclose certain charges. The complaint seeks certification of a nationwide class consisting of all HomeAdvisor service professionals since October 2012, asserts claims for fraud, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment and violation of the federal RICO statute and the Colorado Consumer Protection Act ("CCPA"), and seeks injunctive relief and damages in an unspecified amount. In December 2016, HomeAdvisor filed a motion to dismiss the RICO and CCPA claims. In September 2017, the court issued an order granting the motion and dismissing those claims. In October 2017, HomeAdvisor filed an answer denying the material allegations of the remaining claims in the complaint. In May 2018, the plaintiffs filed a motion for leave to file a second amended complaint that would add nine new named plaintiffs, five new defendants (including ANGI Homeservices), and 55 new claims, most of them for various alleged violations of the laws of nine separate states. In June 2018, HomeAdvisor opposed the motion on grounds including that it was filed more than one year after the court’s deadline to amend pleadings.
In July 2018, the plaintiffs’ counsel filed a separate putative class action in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, Costello et al. v. HomeAdvisor, Inc. et al., No. 1:18-cv-1802, on behalf of the same nine proposed new plaintiffs in the Airquip case, naming as defendants HomeAdvisor, ANGI Homeservices and IAC (as well as an unrelated company), and asserting 45 claims largely duplicative of those asserted in the proposed second amended complaint in the Airquip case. In November 2018, the judge presiding over the Airquip case issued an order consolidating the two cases to proceed before him under the caption In re HomeAdvisor, Inc. Litigation.
In January 2019, the plaintiffs renewed their motion for leave to file a second amended complaint. In February 2019, the defendants filed their opposition to the motion on various grounds. The motion remains pending, discovery in the case is well under way and the issue of class certification remains to be litigated.
The Company believes that the allegations in this lawsuit are without merit and will continue to defend vigorously against them.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The use of words such as "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "plans" and "believes," among others, generally identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements relating to the Company's future financial performance, business prospects and strategy, anticipated trends and prospects in home services industry and other similar matters. These forward-looking statements are based on Company management's current expectations and assumptions about future events, which are inherently subject to uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict.
Actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements for a variety of reasons, including, among others: our ability to compete, the failure or delay of the home services market to migrate online, adverse economic events or trends (particularly those that adversely impact consumer confidence and spending behavior), our ability to establish and maintain relationships with quality service professionals, our ability to build, maintain and/or enhance our various brands, our ability to market our various products and services in a successful and cost-effective manner, our continued ability to communicate with consumers and service professionals via e-mail (or other sufficient means), our ability develop and monetize version of our products and services for mobile devices, the integrity, efficiency and scalability of our technology systems and infrastructures (and those of third parties), any challenge to the contractor classification or employment status of Handy service professionals, our ability to protect our systems, technology and infrastructure from cyberattacks and to protect personal and confidential user information, the occurrence of data security breaches, fraud and/or additional regulation involving or impacting credit card payments, operational and financial risks relating to acquisitions, our ability to operate (and expand into) international markets successfully, our ability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights and not infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties, changes in key personnel, increased costs and strain on our management as a result of operating as a new public company and various risks related to our relationship with IAC and our outstanding indebtedness. Certain of these and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in our filings with the SEC, including in Part I-Item 1A-Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
Other unknown or unpredictable factors that could also adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results may arise from time to time. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking statements discussed in this report may not prove to be accurate. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only reflect the views of Company management as of the date of this quarterly report. We do not undertake to update these forward-looking statements.
Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The Employee Matters Agreement dated as of September 29, 2017, by and between us and IAC (the “Employee Matters Agreement”), provides, among other things, that we will reimburse IAC for the cost of certain equity awards held by our current and former employees and that IAC may elect to receive payment either in cash or shares of our Class B common stock.
Pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement, 334,385 shares of Class B common stock were issued to IAC on March 31, 2019 as reimbursement for shares of IAC common stock issued in connection with the exercise of IAC stock options by our employees during the quarter ended March 31, 2019. This issuance did not involve any underwriters or public offerings and we believe that such issuance was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
The Company did not purchase any shares of its common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2019. As of that date, 15,000,000 shares of ANGI Class A common stock remained available for repurchase under the Company's previously announced February 2019 repurchase authorization. The Company may repurchase shares pursuant to this repurchase authorization over an indefinite period of time in the open market and in privately negotiated transactions, depending on those factors ANGI management deems relevant at any particular time, including, without limitation, market conditions, share price and future outlook.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. TERMINATION OF EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT.

(a)    DEATH. In the event Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, the Company shall pay Executive’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries, within thirty (30) days of Executive’s death in a lump sum in cash, (i) Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the month in which death occurs and (ii) any other Accrued Obligations (as defined in paragraph 1(f) below).

(b)    DISABILITY. If, as a result of Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness (“Disability”), Executive shall have been absent from the full-time performance of Executive’s duties with the Company for a period of four (4) consecutive months and, within thirty (30) days after written notice is provided to Executive by the Company (in accordance

4




with Section 4A hereof), Executive shall not have returned to the full-time performance of Executive’s duties, Executive’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated by the Company for Disability. During any period prior to such termination during which Executive is absent from the full-time performance of Executive’s duties with the Company due to Disability, the Company shall continue to pay Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of such period of Disability, offset by any amounts payable to Executive under any disability insurance plan or policy provided by the Company. Upon termination of Executive’s employment due to Disability, the Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days of such termination (i) Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the month in which termination occurs in a lump sum in cash, offset by any amounts payable to Executive under any disability insurance plan or policy provided by the Company; and (ii) any other Accrued Obligations (as defined in paragraph 1(f) below).

(c)    TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause (as defined below), the Company shall have no further obligation hereunder, except for the payment of any Accrued Obligations (as defined in paragraph 1(f) below). As used herein, “Cause” shall mean: (i) the plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, or conviction for, the commission of a felony offense by Executive; provided, however, that after indictment, the Company may suspend Executive from the rendition of services, but without limiting or modifying in any other way the Company’s obligations under this Agreement; (ii) a material breach by Executive of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (iii) a material breach by Executive of any of the covenants made by Executive in Section 2 hereof; (iv) the willful or gross neglect by Executive of the material duties required by this Agreement; or (v) a violation by Executive of any Company policy pertaining to ethics, wrongdoing or conflicts of interest; provided, that in the case of conduct described in clauses (iii), (iv) or (v) above which is capable of being cured, Executive shall have a period of ten (10) days after Executive is provided with written notice thereof in which to cure.
(d)    TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY OTHER THAN FOR DEATH, DISABILITY OR CAUSE; RESIGNATION BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON. If Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated prior to the expiration of the Term by the Company for any reason other than Executive’s death or Disability or for Cause or if Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below) prior to the expiration of the Term, then
(i)    the Company shall continue to pay to Executive the Base Salary for 12 months from the date of such termination or resignation (“Severance Period”), payable in equal biweekly installments (or, if different, in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice as in effect from time to time) over the course of such twelve (12) months;
(ii)    any compensation awards of Executive based on, or in the form of, Company or IAC equity (e.g., restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options or similar instruments) that are outstanding and unvested at the time of such termination but which would, but for such termination, have vested during the Severance Period shall

1




vest as of the date of such termination of employment; provided that for these purposes, any equity awards with a vesting schedule less frequent than annual shall be treated as though the vesting occurred in equal annual installments and any portion of any such awards that would have vested by the end of the Severance Period (including any portion which would have vested prior to the date of termination of employment) shall vest as of the date of such termination of employment (e.g., if 100 restricted stock units were granted 1.7 years prior to the date of termination with a 5-year cliff vesting term then on the date of termination 40 of such units would vest); provided, further, that with respect to any awards subject to performance vesting requirements, the vesting of such awards shall in all events be subject to the satisfaction of the applicable performance goals;
(iii)    any then-vested stock options or stock appreciation rights of Executive (including any such awards vesting as a result of (ii) above) to acquire Company equity shall remain exercisable through the earlier of (A) the scheduled expiration date of such awards and (B) eighteen months following Executive’s termination of employment; and
(iv)    the Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days of the date of such termination or resignation in a lump sum in cash any Accrued Obligations (as defined in paragraph 1(f) below).
The payment to Executive of the severance benefits described in this Section 1(d) shall be subject to Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of the Company and its affiliates, in a form substantially similar to that used for similarly situated executives of the Company and its affiliates, such general release to be executed and promptly delivered to the Company (and in no event later than 21 days following Executive’s termination of employment, or such longer period as may be required by applicable law) and Executive’s compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 2 hereof. Such release shall make clear that Executive is not releasing her right to receive any termination benefits pursuant to this Section 1(d) above and/or under any equity incentive plans governing any outstanding equity award then held by Executive. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the severance benefits described in this Section 1(d) constitute good and valuable consideration for such release.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following without Executive’s prior written consent: (A) the reduction in Executive’s Base Salary constituting a material diminution in Executive’s base compensation as determined for purposes of Section 409A and regulations thereunder, (B) a material diminution in Executive’s title, duties or level of responsibilities as compared to those in effect as of the Effective Date, excluding for this purpose any such change that is an isolated and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive, (C) the relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment to a location that is greater than fifty (50) miles away from the greater Denver, Colorado metroplitan area; provided, however, that in no event shall Executive’s resignation be for “Good Reason” unless (x) an event or circumstance set forth in clauses (A) through (C) above shall have occurred and Executive provides the Company with written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after Executive has initial knowledge of the occurrence or existence of such event or circumstance,

2




which notice specifically identifies the event or circumstance that Executive believes constitutes Good Reason, (y) the Company fails to correct the event or circumstance so identified within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice and (z) Executive resigns within ninety (90) days after the date of delivery of the notice referred to in (x) above.
(e)    MITIGATION; OFFSET. In the event of termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 1(d), Executive shall use Executive’s reasonable best efforts to seek other employment and to take other reasonable actions to mitigate the amounts payable under
Section 1(d)(i) hereof. If Executive obtains other employment during the period of time in which the Company is required to make payments to Executive pursuant to Section 1(d)(i) above, the amount of any such remaining payments or benefits to be provided to Executive shall be reduced by the amount of compensation and benefits earned by Executive from such other employment through the end of such period. For purposes of this Section 1(e), Executive shall have an obligation to inform the Company regarding Executive’s employment status following termination and during the period of time in which the Company is making payments to Executive under Section 1(d)(i) above.

(f)    ACCRUED OBLIGATIONS. As used in this Agreement, “Accrued Obligations” shall mean the sum of (i) any portion of Executive’s accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of death or termination of employment for any reason, as the case may be; (ii) any compensation previously earned but deferred by Executive (together with any interest or earnings thereon) that has not yet been paid and that is not otherwise to be paid at a later date pursuant to the executive deferred compensation plan of the Company, if any, and (iii) any reimbursements that Executive is entitled to receive under Section 3A(d)(i) of the Agreement.

(g) NOTICE OF NON-RENEWAL. If the Company delivers a Non-Renewal Notice to Executive then, provided Executive offers reasonable transition of her duties as may be requested by the Company (which such transition shall not extend beyond the then-current expiration date of the Term), effective as of Executive’s separation from service from the Company, Executive shall have the same rights and obligations hereunder as if the Company had terminated Executive’s employment without Cause.

2.
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; NON-COMPETITION; NON-SOLICITATION; AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.
(a)    CONFIDENTIALITY. Executive acknowledges that, while employed by the Company, Executive will occupy a position of trust and confidence. The Company, its subsidiaries and/or affiliates shall provide Executive with “Confidential Information” as referred to below. Executive shall not, except as may be required to perform Executive’s duties hereunder or as required by applicable law, without limitation in time, communicate, divulge,

3




disseminate, disclose to others or otherwise use, whether directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information regarding the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates.
“Confidential Information” shall mean information about the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and their respective businesses, employees, consultants, contractors, clients and customers that is not disclosed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates for financial reporting purposes or otherwise generally made available to the public (other than by Executive’s breach of the terms hereof) and that was learned or developed by Executive in the course of employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, including (without limitation) any proprietary knowledge, trade secrets, data, formulae, information and client and customer lists and all papers, resumes, and records (including computer records) of the documents containing such Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that such Confidential Information is specialized, unique in nature and of great value to the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates, and that such information gives the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates a competitive advantage. Executive agrees to deliver or return to the Company, at the Company’s request at any time or upon termination or expiration of Executive’s employment or as soon thereafter as possible, all documents, computer tapes and disks, records, lists, data, drawings, prints, notes and written information (and all copies thereof) furnished by the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates or prepared by Executive in the course of Executive’s employment by the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. As used in this Agreement, “subsidiaries” and “affiliates” shall mean any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company.
(b)    NON-COMPETITION. In consideration of this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Executive, Executive hereby agrees and covenants that, during Executive’s employment hereunder and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, engage in or become associated with a Competitive Activity.

For purposes of this Section 2(b), (i) a “Competitive Activity” means any business or other endeavor involving Similar Products if such business or endeavor is in a country (including the United States) in which the Company (or any of its businesses) provides or planned to provide during Executive’s employment hereunder such Similar Products; (ii) “Similar Products” means any products or services that are the same or similar to any of the types of products or services that the Company (or any of its businesses) provides, has provided or planned to provide during Executive’s employment hereunder; and (iii) Executive shall be considered to have become “associated with a Competitive Activity” if Executive becomes directly or indirectly involved as an owner, principal, employee, officer, director, independent contractor, representative, stockholder, financial backer, agent, partner, member, advisor, lender, consultant or in any other individual or representative capacity with any individual, partnership, corporation or other organization that is engaged in a Competitive Activity.


4




Executive acknowledges that Executive’s covenants under this Section 2(b) are a material inducement to the Company’s entering into this Agreement. Further, Executive acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in this provision are reasonable and not greater than necessary to protect and maintain the proprietary and other legitimate business interests of the Company, and that the enforcement of these restrictions would not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may make and retain investments during the Restricted Period, for investment purposes only, in less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock of any publicly-traded corporation engaged in a Competitive Activity if the stock of such corporation is either listed on a national stock exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System if Executive is not otherwise affiliated with such corporation. Executive acknowledges that Executive’s covenants under this Section 2(b) are a material inducement to the Company’s entering into this Agreement.
(c)    NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Executive recognizes that Executive will possess Confidential Information about other employees, consultants and contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates relating to their education, experience, skills, abilities, compensation and benefits, and inter-personal relationships with suppliers to and customers of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive recognizes that the information Executive will possess about these other employees, consultants and contractors is not generally known, is of substantial value to the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates in developing their respective businesses and in securing and retaining customers, and will be acquired by Executive because of Executive’s business position with the Company. Executive agrees that, during Executive’s employment hereunder and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or recruit any employee of (i) the Company and/or (ii) its subsidiaries and/or affiliates with whom Executive has had direct contact during Executive’s employment hereunder, in each case, for the purpose of being employed by Executive or by any business, individual, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity on whose behalf Executive is acting as an agent, representative or employee and that Executive will not convey any such Confidential Information or trade secrets about employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to any other person except within the scope of Executive’s duties hereunder.
(d)    NON-SOLICITATION OF BUSINESS PARTNERS. During Executive’s employment hereunder, and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, persuade or encourage any business partners or business affiliates of (i) the Company and/or (ii) any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates with whom Executive has direct contact during her employment hereunder, in each case, to cease doing business with the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates or to engage in any business competitive with the Company and/or its subsidiaries and/or affiliates.
(e)    PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; ASSIGNMENT. All Employee Developments (defined below) shall be considered works made for hire by Executive for the Company or, as applicable, its subsidiaries or affiliates, and Executive agrees that all rights of any kind in any

5




Employee Developments belong exclusively to the Company. In order to permit the Company to exploit such Employee Developments, Executive shall promptly and fully report all such Employee Developments to the Company. Except in furtherance of Executive’s obligations as an employee of the Company, Executive shall not use or reproduce any portion of any record associated with any Employee Development without prior written consent of the Company or, as applicable, its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive agrees that in the event actions of Executive are required to ensure that such rights belong to the Company under applicable laws, Executive will cooperate and take whatever such actions are reasonably requested by the Company, whether during or after the Term, and without the need for separate or additional compensation. “Employee Developments” means any idea, know-how, discovery, invention, design, method, technique, improvement, enhancement, development, computer program, machine, algorithm or other work of authorship, whether developed, conceived or reduced to practice during or following the period of employment, that (i) concerns or relates to the actual or anticipated business, research or development activities, or operations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or (ii) results from or is suggested by any undertaking assigned to Executive or work performed by Executive for or on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, whether created alone or with others, during or after working hours, or (iii) uses, incorporates or is based on Company equipment, supplies, facilities, trade secrets or inventions of any form or type. All Confidential Information and all Employee Developments are and shall remain the sole property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive shall acquire no proprietary interest in any Confidential Information or Employee Developments developed or acquired during the Term. To the extent Executive may, by operation of law or otherwise, acquire any right, title or interest in or to any Confidential Information or Employee Development, Executive hereby assigns and covenants to assign to the Company all such proprietary rights without the need for a separate writing or additional compensation. Executive shall, both during and after the Term, upon the Company’s request, promptly execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Company all such assignments, confirmations of assignment, certificates, and instruments, and shall promptly perform such other acts, as the Company may from time to time in its discretion deem necessary or desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, perfect, enforce or defend the Company’s rights in Confidential Information and Employee Developments.
(f)    COMPLIANCE WITH POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. During the period that Executive is employed with the Company hereunder, Executive shall adhere to the policies and standards of professionalism set forth in the policies and procedures of the Company and IAC as they may exist from time to time.
(g)    SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in this Section 2 shall, to the extent provided in this Section 2, survive the termination or expiration of Executive’s employment with the Company and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable thereafter in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any restriction in this Section 2 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under applicable law, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

3.    TERMINATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and, as of the Effective Date, terminates and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, including that certain Employment Agreement executed on August 24. 2017. Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has made, and is not making, and in executing this Agreement, Executive has not relied upon, any representations, promises or inducements except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement.
4.    ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS. This Agreement is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the others, assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder; provided, that the Company may assign this Agreement to, or allow any of its obligations to be fulfilled by, or take actions through, any affiliate of the Company and, in the event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Transaction”) with or to any other individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor shall discharge and perform all the promises, covenants, duties, and obligations of the Company hereunder, and in the event of any such assignment or Transaction, all references herein to the “Company” shall refer to the Company’s assignee or successor hereunder.
5.    WITHHOLDING. The Company shall make such deductions and withhold such amounts from each payment and benefit made or provided to Executive hereunder, as may be required from time to time by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.
6.    SECTION 409A OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.
(a)    This Agreement is not intended to constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”).  It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement and the Company’s and Executive’s exercise of authority or discretion hereunder shall comply with and avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent. In no event shall the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A with respect to any benefit paid to Executive hereunder.
(b)    For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” occurs when Executive dies, retires or otherwise has a termination of employment with the Company that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1), without regard to the optional alternative definitions available thereunder.
(c)    If Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date of Executive’s Separation from Service, Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefit pursuant to Section 1(d) that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after

7




her Separation from Service for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply if, and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section 409A. Any amounts otherwise payable to Executive upon or in the six (6) month period following Executive’s Separation from Service that are not so paid by reason of this Section 6(c) shall be paid (without interest) as soon as practicable (and in all events within thirty (30) days) after the date that is six (6) months after Executive’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, as soon as practicable, and in all events within thirty (30) days, after the date of Executive’s death).
(d)    To the extent that any reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement is taxable to Executive, Executive shall provide the Company with documentation of the related expenses promptly so as to facilitate the timing of the reimbursement payment contemplated by this paragraph, and any reimbursement payment due to Executive pursuant to such provision shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. Such reimbursement obligations pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in any other taxable year.
(e)    In no event shall the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A with respect to any benefit paid to Executive hereunder. The Company agrees to take any reasonable steps requested by Executive to avoid adverse tax consequences to Executive as a result of any benefit to Executive hereunder being subject to Section 409A, provided that Executive shall, if requested, reimburse the Company for any incremental costs (other than incidental costs) associated with taking such steps. All payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A.
(f)    For purposes of Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any “installment” payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.
7.    SECTION 280G; PARACHUTE PAYMENTS.
(a)If any payment or benefit Executive will or may receive from the Company or otherwise (a “280G Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then any such 280G Payment provided pursuant to this Agreement (a “Payment”) shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment (after reduction) being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount (i.e., the amount determined by clause (x) or by clause (y)), after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate),

8




results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in a Payment is required pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Reduced Amount is determined pursuant to clause (x) of the preceding sentence, the reduction shall occur in the manner (the “Reduction Method”) that results in the greatest economic benefit for Executive. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata Reduction Method”).
(b)Notwithstanding any provision of subsection (a) above to the contrary, if the Reduction Method or the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Payment being subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A that would not otherwise be subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A, then the Reduction Method and/or the Pro Rata Reduction Method, as the case may be, shall be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A as follows: (i) as a first priority, the modification shall preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit for Executive as determined on an after-tax basis; (ii) as a second priority, Payments that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without Cause), shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and (iii) as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A.
(c)Unless Executive and the Company agree on an alternative accounting firm or law firm, the accounting firm engaged by the Company for general tax compliance purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control transaction shall perform the foregoing calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the change in control transaction, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting or law firm to make the determinations required by this Section 7. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting or law firm required to be made hereunder. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the accounting or law firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder to provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to Executive and the Company within 15 calendar days after the date on which Executive’s right to a 280G Payment becomes reasonably likely to occur (if requested at that time by Executive or the Company) or such other time as requested by Executive or the Company.
8.    HEADING REFERENCES. Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. References to “this Agreement” or the use of the term “hereof” shall refer to these

9




Standard Terms and Conditions and the Employment Agreement attached hereto, taken as a whole.
9.    REMEDIES FOR BREACH. Executive expressly agrees and understands that Executive will notify the Company in writing of any alleged breach of this Agreement by the Company, and the Company will have thirty (30) days from receipt of Executive’s notice to cure any such breach. Executive expressly agrees and understands that in the event of any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company during the Term, the Company’s contractual obligations to Executive shall be fulfilled through compliance with its obligations under Section 1 of the Standard Terms and Conditions.
Executive expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by Executive of Section 2 of the Standard Terms and Conditions will be inadequate and that damages flowing from such breach are not usually susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that, upon Executive’s violation of any provision of such Section 2, the Company shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach as well as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such violation. Nothing shall be deemed to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 2, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.
10.    WAIVER; MODIFICATION. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except by a writing executed by each party hereto.
11.    SEVERABILITY. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public policy, only the portions of this Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this Agreement that do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, any court order striking any portion of this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties under this Agreement.
12.    INDEMNIFICATION. The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless for acts and omissions in Executive’s capacity as an officer, director or employee of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law; provided, however, that neither the Company, nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall indemnify Executive for any losses incurred by Executive as a result of acts described in Section 1(c) of this Agreement.

this Agreement; (ii) a material breach by Executive of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (iii) a material breach by Executive of any of the covenants made by Executive in Section 2 hereof; (iv) the willful or gross neglect by Executive of the material duties required by this Agreement; or (v) a violation by Executive of any Company policy pertaining to ethics, wrongdoing or conflicts of interest; provided, that in the case of conduct described in clauses (iii), (iv) or (v) above which is capable of being cured, Executive shall have a period of fifteen (15) days after Executive is provided with written notice thereof in which to cure.

(i)     the Company shall continue to pay to Executive the Base Salary for 12 months from the date of such termination or resignation (“Severance Period”), payable in equal biweekly installments (or, if different, in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice as in effect from time to time) over the course of such twelve (12) months;

(ii)     any compensation awards of Executive based on, or in the form of, Company equity (e.g., restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options or similar instruments) that are outstanding and unvested at the time of such termination but which would, but for such termination, have vested during the Severance Period shall vest as of the date of such termination of employment; provided that for these purposes, any equity awards with a vesting schedule less frequent than annual shall be treated as though the vesting occurred in equal annual installments and any portion of any such awards that would have vested by the end of the Severance Period (including any portion which would have vested prior to the date of termination of employment) shall vest as of the date of such termination of employment (e.g., if 100 restricted stock units were granted 1.7 years prior to the date of termination with a 5-year cliff vesting term then on the date of termination 40 of such units would vest); provided, further, that with respect to any awards subject to performance vesting requirements, the vesting of such awards shall in all events be subject to the satisfaction of the applicable performance goals; and

(iii) any then-vested options or stock appreciation rights of Executive (including any such awards vesting as a result of (ii) above) to acquire Company equity shall remain exercisable through the earlier of (A) the scheduled expiration date of such awards and (B) eighteen months following Executive’s termination of employment; and


1




(iv)     the Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days of the date of such termination or resignation in a lump sum in cash any Accrued Obligations (as defined in paragraph 1(f) below).

The payment to Executive of the severance benefits described in this Section 1(d) shall be subject to Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of the Company and its affiliates, in a form substantially similar to that used for similarly situated executives of the Company and its affiliates, such general release to be executed and promptly delivered to the Company (and in no event later than 21 days following Executive’s termination of employment, or such longer period as may be required by applicable law) and Executive’s compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 2 hereof. Such release shall make clear that Executive is not releasing her right to receive any termination benefits pursuant to this Section 1(d) above and/or under any equity incentive plan governing any outstanding equity award then held by Executive. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the severance benefits described in this Section 1(d) constitute good and valuable consideration for such release.

(e)    OFFSET. If Executive obtains other employment during the period of time in which the Company is required to make payments to Executive pursuant to Section 1(d)(i) above, the amount of any such remaining payments or benefits to be provided to Executive shall be reduced by the amount of compensation and benefits earned by Executive from such other employment through the end of such period. For purposes of this Section 1(e), Executive shall have an obligation to inform the Company regarding Executive’s employment status following

2




termination and during the period of time in which the Company is making payments to Executive under Section 1(d)(i) above.

(f)    ACCRUED OBLIGATIONS. As used in this Agreement, “Accrued Obligations” shall mean the sum of (i) any portion of Executive’s accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of death or termination of employment for any reason, as the case may be; (ii) any compensation previously earned but deferred by Executive (together with any interest or earnings thereon) that has not yet been paid and that is not otherwise to be paid at a later date pursuant to the executive deferred compensation plan of the Company, if any, and (iii) any reimbursements that Executive is entitled to receive under Section 3A(d)(i) of the Agreement.

(g) NOTICE OF NON-RENEWAL. If the Company delivers a Non-Renewal Notice to Executive then, provided Executive offers reasonable transition of her duties as may be requested by the Company (which such transition shall not extend beyond the then-current expiration date of the Term), effective as of Executive’s separation from service from the Company, Executive shall have the same rights and obligations hereunder as if the Company had terminated Executive’s employment without Cause.
2.
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; NON-COMPETITION; NON-SOLICITATION; AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.
(a)    CONFIDENTIALITY. Executive acknowledges that, while employed by the Company, Executive will occupy a position of trust and confidence. The Company, its subsidiaries and/or affiliates shall provide Executive with “Confidential Information” as referred to below. Executive shall not, except as may be required to perform Executive’s duties hereunder or as required by applicable law, without limitation in time, communicate, divulge, disseminate, disclose to others or otherwise use, whether directly or indirectly, any Confidential Information regarding the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates.
“Confidential Information” shall mean information about the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and their respective businesses, employees, consultants, contractors, clients and customers that is not disclosed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates for financial reporting purposes or otherwise generally made available to the public (other than by Executive’s breach of the terms hereof) and that was learned or developed by Executive in the course of employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, including (without limitation) any proprietary knowledge, trade secrets, data, formulae, information and client and customer lists and all papers, resumes, and records (including computer records) of the documents containing such Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that such Confidential Information is specialized, unique in nature and of great value to the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates, and that such information gives the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates a competitive advantage. Executive agrees to deliver or return to the Company, at the Company’s request at any time or upon termination or expiration of Executive’s employment or as soon thereafter as possible, all documents, computer tapes and disks, records, lists, data, drawings, prints, notes and written information (and all copies thereof) furnished by the

3




Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates or prepared by Executive in the course of Executive’s employment by the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. As used in this Agreement, “subsidiaries” and “affiliates” shall mean any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company.
(b)    NON-COMPETITION. In consideration of this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Executive, Executive hereby agrees and covenants that, during Executive’s employment hereunder and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, engage in or become associated with a Competitive Activity.

For purposes of this Section 2(b), (i) a “Competitive Activity” means any business or other endeavor involving Similar Products if such business or endeavor is in a country (including the United States) in which the Company (or any of its businesses) provides or planned to provide during Executive’s employment hereunder such Similar Products; (ii) “Similar Products” means any products or services that are the same or similar to any of the types of products or services that the Company (or any of its businesses) provides, has provided or planned to provide during Executive’s employment hereunder; and (iii) Executive shall be considered to have become “associated with a Competitive Activity” if Executive becomes directly or indirectly involved as an owner, principal, employee, officer, director, independent contractor, representative, stockholder, financial backer, agent, partner, member, advisor, lender, consultant or in any other individual or representative capacity with any individual, partnership, corporation or other organization that is engaged in a Competitive Activity.

Executive acknowledges that Executive’s covenants under this Section 2(b) are a material inducement to the Company’s entering into this Agreement. Further, Executive acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in this provision are reasonable and not greater than necessary to protect and maintain the proprietary and other legitimate business interests of the Company, and that the enforcement of these restrictions would not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may make and retain investments during the Restricted Period, for investment purposes only, in less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock of any publicly-traded corporation engaged in a Competitive Activity if the stock of such corporation is either listed on a national stock exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System if Executive is not otherwise affiliated with such corporation. Executive acknowledges that Executive’s covenants under this Section 2(b) are a material inducement to the Company’s entering into this Agreement.
(c)    NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Executive recognizes that Executive will possess Confidential Information about other employees, consultants and contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates relating to their education, experience, skills, abilities, compensation and benefits, and inter-personal relationships with suppliers to and customers of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive recognizes that the information Executive will possess about these other employees, consultants and contractors is not generally

known, is of substantial value to the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates in developing their respective businesses and in securing and retaining customers, and will be acquired by Executive because of Executive’s business position with the Company. Executive agrees that, during Executive’s employment hereunder and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit or recruit any employee of (i) the Company and/or (ii) its subsidiaries and/or affiliates with whom Executive has had direct contact during Executive’s employment hereunder, in each case, for the purpose of being employed by Executive or by any business, individual, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity on whose behalf Executive is acting as an agent, representative or employee and that Executive will not convey any such Confidential Information or trade secrets about employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to any other person except within the scope of Executive’s duties hereunder.
(d)    NON-SOLICITATION OF BUSINESS PARTNERS. During Executive’s employment hereunder, and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, persuade or encourage any business partners or business affiliates of (i) the Company and/or (ii) any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates with whom Executive has direct contact during her employment hereunder, in each case, to cease doing business with the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates or to engage in any business competitive with the Company and/or its subsidiaries and/or affiliates.
(e)    PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; ASSIGNMENT. All Employee Developments (defined below) shall be considered works made for hire by Executive for the Company or, as applicable, its subsidiaries or affiliates, and Executive agrees that all rights of any kind in any Employee Developments belong exclusively to the Company. In order to permit the Company to exploit such Employee Developments, Executive shall promptly and fully report all such Employee Developments to the Company. Except in furtherance of Executive’s obligations as an employee of the Company, Executive shall not use or reproduce any portion of any record associated with any Employee Development without prior written consent of the Company or, as applicable, its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive agrees that in the event actions of Executive are required to ensure that such rights belong to the Company under applicable laws, Executive will cooperate and take whatever such actions are reasonably requested by the Company, whether during or after the Term, and without the need for separate or additional compensation. “Employee Developments” means any idea, know-how, discovery, invention, design, method, technique, improvement, enhancement, development, computer program, machine, algorithm or other work of authorship, whether developed, conceived or reduced to practice during or following the period of employment, that (i) concerns or relates to the actual or anticipated business, research or development activities, or operations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or (ii) results from or is suggested by any undertaking assigned to Executive or work performed by Executive for or on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, whether created alone or with others, during or after working hours, or (iii) uses, incorporates or is based on Company equipment, supplies, facilities, trade secrets or inventions of any form or type. All Confidential Information and all Employee Developments are and shall remain the sole property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

5




Developments developed or acquired during the Term. To the extent Executive may, by operation of law or otherwise, acquire any right, title or interest in or to any Confidential Information or Employee Development, Executive hereby assigns and covenants to assign to the Company all such proprietary rights without the need for a separate writing or additional compensation. Executive shall, both during and after the Term, upon the Company’s request, promptly execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Company all such assignments, confirmations of assignment, certificates, and instruments, and shall promptly perform such other acts, as the Company may from time to time in its discretion deem necessary or desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, perfect, enforce or defend the Company’s rights in Confidential Information and Employee Developments.
(f)    COMPLIANCE WITH POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. During the period that Executive is employed with the Company hereunder, Executive shall adhere to the policies and standards of professionalism set forth in the policies and procedures of the Company and IAC as they may exist from time to time.
(g)    SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in this Section 2 shall, to the extent provided in this Section 2, survive the termination or expiration of Executive’s employment with the Company and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable thereafter in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any restriction in this Section 2 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under applicable law, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
3.    ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS. This Agreement is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the others, assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder; provided, that the Company may assign this Agreement to, or allow any of its obligations to be fulfilled by, or take actions through, any affiliate of the Company and, in the event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Transaction”) with or to any other individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor shall discharge and perform all the promises, covenants, duties, and obligations of the Company hereunder, and in the event of any such assignment or Transaction, all references herein to the “Company” shall refer to the Company’s assignee or successor hereunder.
4.    WITHHOLDING. The Company shall make such deductions and withhold such amounts from each payment and benefit made or provided to Executive hereunder, as may be required from time to time by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.
5.    SECTION 409A OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.
(a)    This Agreement is not intended to constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”).  It is intended that

6




any amounts payable under this Agreement and the Company’s and Executive’s exercise of authority or discretion hereunder shall comply with and avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent. In no event shall the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A with respect to any benefit paid to Executive hereunder.
(b)    For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” occurs when Executive dies, retires or otherwise has a termination of employment with the Company that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1), without regard to the optional alternative definitions available thereunder.
(c)    If Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date of Executive’s Separation from Service, Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefit pursuant to Section 1(d) that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after her Separation from Service for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply if, and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section 409A. Any amounts otherwise payable to Executive upon or in the six (6) month period following Executive’s Separation from Service that are not so paid by reason of this Section 6(c) shall be paid (without interest) as soon as practicable (and in all events within thirty (30) days) after the date that is six (6) months after Executive’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, as soon as practicable, and in all events within thirty (30) days, after the date of Executive’s death).
(d)    To the extent that any reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement is taxable to Executive, Executive shall provide the Company with documentation of the related expenses promptly so as to facilitate the timing of the reimbursement payment contemplated by this paragraph, and any reimbursement payment due to Executive pursuant to such provision shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. Such reimbursement obligations pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in any other taxable year.
(e)    In no event shall the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A with respect to any benefit paid to Executive hereunder. The Company agrees to take any reasonable steps requested by Executive to avoid adverse tax consequences to Executive as a result of any benefit to Executive hereunder being subject to Section 409A, provided that Executive shall, if requested, reimburse the Company for any incremental costs (other than incidental costs) associated with taking such steps. All payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A.

7




(f)    For purposes of Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any “installment” payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.
6.    SECTION 280G; PARACHUTE PAYMENTS.
(a)If any payment or benefit Executive will or may receive from the Company or otherwise (a “280G Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then any such 280G Payment provided pursuant to this Agreement (a “Payment”) shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment (after reduction) being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount (i.e., the amount determined by clause (x) or by clause (y)), after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in a Payment is required pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Reduced Amount is determined pursuant to clause (x) of the preceding sentence, the reduction shall occur in the manner (the “Reduction Method”) that results in the greatest economic benefit for Executive. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata Reduction Method”).
(b)Notwithstanding any provision of subsection (a) above to the contrary, if the Reduction Method or the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Payment being subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A that would not otherwise be subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A, then the Reduction Method and/or the Pro Rata Reduction Method, as the case may be, shall be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A as follows: (i) as a first priority, the modification shall preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit for Executive as determined on an after-tax basis; (ii) as a second priority, Payments that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without Cause), shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and (iii) as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A.
(c)Unless Executive and the Company agree on an alternative accounting firm or law firm, the accounting firm engaged by the Company for general tax compliance purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control transaction shall perform the foregoing

8




calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the change in control transaction, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting or law firm to make the determinations required by this Section 1. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting or law firm required to be made hereunder. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the accounting or law firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder to provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to Executive and the Company within 15 calendar days after the date on which Executive’s right to a 280G Payment becomes reasonably likely to occur (if requested at that time by Executive or the Company) or such other time as requested by Executive or the Company.
7.    HEADING REFERENCES. Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. References to “this Agreement” or the use of the term “hereof” shall refer to these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Employment Agreement attached hereto, taken as a whole.
8.    REMEDIES FOR BREACH. Executive expressly agrees and understands that Executive will notify the Company in writing of any alleged breach of this Agreement by the Company, and the Company will have thirty (30) days from receipt of Executive’s notice to cure any such breach. Executive expressly agrees and understands that in the event of any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company during the Term, the Company’s contractual obligations to Executive shall be fulfilled through compliance with its obligations under Section 1 of the Standard Terms and Conditions.
Executive expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by Executive of Section 2 of the Standard Terms and Conditions will be inadequate and that damages flowing from such breach are not usually susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that, upon Executive’s violation of any provision of such Section 2, the Company shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach as well as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such violation. Nothing shall be deemed to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 2, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.
9.    WAIVER; MODIFICATION. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except by a writing executed by each party hereto.

9




10.    SEVERABILITY. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public policy, only the portions of this Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this Agreement that do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, any court order striking any portion of this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties under this Agreement.
11.    INDEMNIFICATION. The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless for acts and omissions in Executive’s capacity as an officer, director or employee of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law; provided, however, that neither the Company, nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall indemnify Executive for any losses incurred by Executive as a result of acts described in Section 1(c) of this Agreement.
