Section 4.06 Right to Review Tax Returns.

(a) General. The Company that has responsibility for preparing and filing any material Tax Return under this Agreement shall make such Tax Return (or the relevant portions thereof) and related workpapers available for review by the other Company to the extent the other Company (i) is or would reasonably be expected to be liable for Taxes reflected on such Tax Return, (ii) is or would reasonably be expected to be liable for any additional Taxes owing as a result of adjustments to the amount of such Taxes reported on such Tax Return, (iii) has or would reasonably be expected to have a claim for Tax Benefits under this Agreement in respect of items reflected on such Tax Return, or (iv) reasonably requires such documents to confirm compliance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that, except for portions of such Tax Returns reflecting the items or otherwise containing the information described in the preceding clauses (iii) or (iv), (x) IAC shall not be required to make available any New Match Separate Tax Return for any Tax Period that begins after the Deconsolidation Date for review by New IAC and (y) New IAC shall not be required to make available any New IAC Separate Tax Return for any Tax Period that begins after the Deconsolidation Date for review by IAC. The Company that has responsibility for preparing and filing such Tax Return under this Agreement shall use reasonable efforts to make such Tax Return (or the relevant portions thereof) and related workpapers available for review as required under this paragraph sufficiently in advance of (but in any event at least thirty (30) days (or, in the case of Tax Returns that are not Income Tax Returns, such shorter period as is reasonable taking into account the Tax Period and the nature of the relevant Tax Return or other relevant circumstances) prior to) the due date for filing of such Tax Return to provide the requesting Party with a meaningful opportunity to review and comment on such Tax Return and shall consider such comments in good faith. The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any material disagreement arising out of the review of such Tax Return and, failing such resolution, any material disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Section 14 as promptly as practicable.

(b) Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Returns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein:

(i) With respect to any (x) Tax Return required to be prepared by IAC pursuant to Section 4.02(a) or (b) or (y) IAC Separate Return required to be prepared by IAC pursuant to Section 4.02(c), in each case, with respect to any Tax Period that includes a Pre-Deconsolidation Period (each, a “Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return”), IAC shall deliver to New IAC for its review, comment, and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) a copy of such Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return at least thirty (30) days (or, in the case of Tax Returns that are not Income Tax Returns, such shorter period as is reasonable taking into account the Tax Period and the nature of the relevant Tax Return or other relevant circumstances) prior to the due date thereof (taking into account any extensions). IAC shall revise such Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return to reflect any comments received from New IAC not later than fifteen (15) days (or, in the case of Tax Returns that are not Income Tax Returns, such shorter period as is reasonable taking into account the Tax Period and the nature of the relevant Tax Return or other relevant circumstances) before the due date thereof (taking into account any extensions) to the extent (i) such comments (A) relate to New IAC, any other member of the New IAC Group or any member of the IAC Group, or (B) otherwise affect Taxes for which New IAC is responsible under Section 2, (ii) there is at least a “more likely than not” basis for such positions and (iii) such comments would not reasonably be expected to result in an adverse Tax consequence that is material to any member of the New Match Group. In the event of any disagreement with respect to any such Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return, IAC and New IAC shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such disagreement and, if IAC and New IAC are unable to reach resolution, they shall promptly cause a jointly retained nationally recognized independent accounting firm selected jointly by IAC and New IAC (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve such disagreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within a reasonable time, taking into account the deadline for filing such Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return. IAC shall revise such Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return to reflect any agreement reached between IAC and New IAC and, if applicable, any such resolution of the Independent Accounting Firm, and shall deliver a revised Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return to New IAC at least five (5) days before the due date therefor (taking into account extensions) (or such shorter period as is reasonable taking into account the Tax Period and the nature of the relevant Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Return). Any determination of the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 4.06(b)(i) shall be binding upon the Parties without further adjustment. The costs, fees, and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by IAC and New IAC.

-18-

(ii) Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a Final Determination, neither IAC nor New IAC shall (nor shall either permit any of its Affiliates to) amend or revoke any Tax Return for any Tax Period that includes any Pre-Deconsolidation Period (or any notification or election relating thereto) without the prior written consent of the other Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). At New IAC’s request and at New IAC’s cost and expense, unless the filing of such amended Tax Return would reduce any New Match Tax Attribute or would reasonably be expected to result in an adverse Tax consequence that is material to any member of the New Match Group, IAC shall file, or cause to be filed, amended Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Returns (which Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with Section 4.06(b)(i)).

(c) Execution of Returns Prepared by Other Party. In the case of any Tax Return that is required to be prepared by one Company under this Agreement and that is required by law to be signed by another Company (or by its authorized representative), the Company that is legally required to sign such Tax Return shall not be required to sign such Tax Return under this Agreement unless there is at least a “more likely than not” basis (or comparable standard under state, local or foreign law) for the Tax treatment of each material item reported on the Tax Return.

Section 4.07 New IAC Carrybacks and Claims for Refund. New IAC shall cause the members of the New IAC Group to carry forward, where permitted by applicable Law, any item of loss, deduction or credit which arises in any Tax Period ending after the Deconsolidation Date.

(c) New IAC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to determine or cause its designee to determine the portion, if any, of any Tax Attribute that (absent a Final Determination to the contrary) shall be apportioned to New IAC or any member of the New IAC Group in accordance with this Section 4.08 and applicable law and the amount of Tax basis and earnings and profits (including, for the avoidance of doubt, PTEP) to be apportioned to New IAC or any member of the New IAC Group in accordance with this Section 4.08 and applicable law, and shall provide written notice of the calculation thereof to IAC for its review and comment as soon as reasonably practicable after New IAC or its designee prepares such calculation. In the event of any disagreement regarding the accuracy or compliance with applicable law of any such calculation, IAC and New IAC shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such disagreement and, if IAC and New IAC are unable to reach resolution, they shall promptly cause the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve such disagreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within a reasonable time. New IAC shall revise such written notice to reflect any agreement reached between IAC and New IAC and, if applicable, any such resolution of the Independent Accounting Firm, and shall deliver a revised written notice to New IAC at least five (5) days before the due date (taking into account extensions) for the applicable Tax Return. Any determination of the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 4.08(c) shall be binding upon the Parties without further adjustment. The costs, fees, and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by IAC and New IAC.

(d) Any written notice delivered by New IAC pursuant to Section 4.08(c) shall be binding on IAC and each member of the New Match Group and on New IAC and each member of the New IAC Group. Except to the extent otherwise required by a change in applicable law or pursuant to a Final Determination, neither IAC nor New IAC shall take any position (whether on a Tax Return or otherwise) that is inconsistent with the information contained in any such written notice.

-21-

(b) If (i) a member of the New Match Group actually realizes in cash any Tax Benefit as a result of an adjustment pursuant to a Final Determination or reporting required by clause (x) or clause (y) of Section 4.04(b), in each case, that increases Taxes for which a member of the New IAC Group is liable hereunder (or reduces any Tax Attribute of a member of the New IAC Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen but for such adjustment or reporting (determined on a “with and without” basis), or (ii) a member of the New IAC Group actually realizes in cash any Tax Benefit as a result of an adjustment pursuant to a Final Determination or reporting required by clause (x) or clause (y) of Section 4.04(b), in each case, that increases Taxes for which a member of the New Match Group is liable hereunder (or reduces any Tax Attribute of a member of the New Match Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen but for such adjustment or reporting (determined on a “with and without” basis), then, IAC or New IAC, as the case may be, shall make a payment to New IAC or IAC, as appropriate, within 30 days following such actual realization of the Tax Benefit, in an amount equal to such Tax Benefit actually realized in cash (including any Tax Benefit actually realized as a result of the payment); provided, however, that no Company (or any Affiliates of any Company) shall be obligated to make a payment otherwise required pursuant to this Section 6.01(b) to the extent making such payment would place such Company (or any of its Affiliates) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Company (or such Affiliate) would have been in if the relevant Tax Benefit had not been realized. If a Company or one of its Affiliates pays over any amount pursuant to the preceding sentence and such Tax Benefit is subsequently disallowed or adjusted, the Parties shall promptly make appropriate payments (including in respect of any interest paid or imposed by any Tax Authority) to reflect such disallowance or adjustment.

(c) No later than 30 days after a Tax Benefit described in Section 6.01(b) is actually realized in cash by a member of the New IAC Group or a member of the New Match Group, New IAC (if a member of the New IAC Group actually realizes such Tax Benefit) or IAC (if a member of the New Match Group actually realizes such Tax Benefit) shall provide the other Company with a written calculation of the amount payable to such other Company by New IAC or IAC pursuant to this Section 6. In the event that New IAC or IAC disagrees with any such calculation described in this Section 6.01(c), New IAC or IAC shall so notify the other Company in writing within 30 days of receiving the written calculation set forth above in this Section 6.01(c). New IAC and IAC shall endeavor in good faith to resolve such disagreement, and, failing that, the amount payable under this Section 6 shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 14 as promptly as practicable.

(d) New IAC shall be entitled to any refund that is attributable to, and would not have arisen but for, a New IAC Carryback pursuant to Section 4.07. Any such payment of such refund made by IAC to New IAC pursuant to this Section 6.01(d) shall be recalculated in light of any Final Determination (or any other facts that may arise or come to light after such payment is made, such as a carryback of a New Match Group Tax Attribute to a Tax Period in respect of which such refund is received) that would affect the amount to which New IAC is entitled, and an appropriate adjusting payment shall be made by New IAC to IAC such that the aggregate amount paid pursuant to this Section 6.01(d) equals such recalculated amount.

(e) If (i) as a result of an adjustment pursuant to a Final Determination, any New Match Tax Attribute is utilized to reduce Taxes for a Pre-Deconsolidation Period for which a member of the New IAC Group would otherwise be liable hereunder, (ii) such reduction in Taxes would not have arisen but for such adjustment (determined on a “with and without” basis), and (iii) the amount of Taxes payable by any member of the New Match Group for a Post-Deconsolidation Period exceeds the amount of Taxes that otherwise would have been payable by such member of the New Match Group for such Post-Deconsolidation Period absent such utilization (determined on a “with and without” basis), then New IAC shall indemnify and hold the members of the New Match Group harmless from and against any such excess Tax liability, as, if, and when such Taxes are actually incurred.

Section 6.02 New IAC and IAC Income Tax Deductions in Respect of Certain Equity Awards and Incentive Compensation.

(a) Allocation of Deductions.

(i) To the extent permitted by applicable law, Income Tax deductions arising by reason of exercises of options or vesting or settlement of restricted stock units, in each case, following the Distribution, with respect to New IAC stock or IAC stock (such options and restricted stock units, collectively, “Compensatory Equity Interests”) held by any Person shall be claimed (A) in the case of an IAC Employee or Former IAC Employee, solely by the New IAC Group, (B) in the case of a Match Employee or Former Match Employee, solely by the New Match Group, and (C) in the case of a non-employee director (solely with respect to Compensatory Equity Interests received in his or her capacity as a director), by the Company for which the director serves as a director following the Distribution (provided, that in the case of any director who serves on the board of directors of both New IAC and IAC, each Company shall be entitled only to the deductions arising in respect of such Compensatory Equity Interests denominated in its own stock).

(ii) To the extent that, notwithstanding the allocation set forth in Section 6.02(a)(i), (A) the New IAC Group is not entitled to claim any Income Tax deductions arising by reason of exercises of IAC Service Provider Options (“IAC Service Provider Option Deductions”), (B) IAC, or any member of the New Match Group, is entitled to claim such IAC Service Provider Option Deductions, and (C) IAC (or such member of the New Match Group) actually realizes in cash any Tax Benefit as a result of such IAC Service Provider Option Deduction (and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen but for such IAC Service Provider Option Deduction, determined on a “with and without” basis), then, IAC shall claim such Income Tax deduction and shall make a payment to New IAC within 30 days following the actual realization of such Tax Benefit, in an amount equal to the Tax Benefit actually realized in cash. If IAC pays over any amount pursuant to the preceding sentence and such Tax Benefit is subsequently disallowed or adjusted, the Parties shall promptly make appropriate payments (including in respect of any interest paid or imposed by any Tax Authority) to reflect such disallowance or adjustment.

(b) Withholding and Reporting. Each Company entitled to claim the Tax deductions described in Section 6.02(a)(i) with respect to Compensatory Equity Interests shall be responsible for all applicable Taxes (including, but not limited to, withholding and excise Taxes) and shall satisfy, or shall cause to be satisfied, all applicable Tax reporting obligations with respect to such Compensatory Equity Interests; provided, however, that the issuing corporation shall promptly remit to the applicable Company that is entitled to claim the relevant Tax deductions described in Section 6.02(a)(i) an amount of cash equal to any withholding or other Taxes for which the holder of the Compensatory Equity Interest is responsible under the terms of the relevant plan or grant (regardless of whether such amounts (x) are collected from the holder of the Compensatory Equity Interest by way of cash payment or “sell-to-cover” exercises or (y) reduce the number of shares to be issued as a result of “net settlement”).

(E) take any other action or actions (including any action or transaction that would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with any Tax Opinion) that, in the aggregate (and taking into account any other transactions described in this subparagraph (d)(i)), would be reasonably likely to have the effect of causing or permitting one or more persons to acquire, directly or indirectly, Capital Stock representing a Fifty-Percent or Greater Interest in New IAC or otherwise jeopardize the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution,

unless, in each case, prior to taking any such action set forth in the foregoing clauses (A) through (E), (x) New IAC shall have requested that IAC obtain a private letter ruling (or, if applicable, a supplemental private letter ruling) from the IRS and/or any other applicable Tax Authority in accordance with Section 7.02(b) and (c) to the effect that such transaction will not affect the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution (taken together with the Contribution), and IAC shall have received such a private letter ruling in form and substance satisfactory to IAC in its reasonable discretion (and in determining whether a private letter ruling is satisfactory, IAC may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions and management’s representations made in connection with such private letter ruling), (y) New IAC shall have provided IAC with an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance satisfactory to IAC in its reasonable discretion (and in determining whether an opinion is satisfactory, IAC may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions and management’s representations if used as a basis for the opinion) or (z) IAC shall have waived the requirement to obtain such private letter ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion.

(D) amend its certificate of incorporation (or other organizational documents), or take any other action, whether through a stockholder vote or otherwise, affecting the voting rights of IAC Capital Stock (including, without limitation, through the conversion of one class of IAC Capital Stock into another class of IAC Capital Stock), or

(E) take any other action or actions (including any action or transaction that would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with any Tax Opinion) that, in the aggregate (and taking into account any other transactions described in this subparagraph (d)(ii)), would be reasonably likely to have the effect of causing or permitting one or more persons to acquire, directly or indirectly, Capital Stock representing a Fifty-Percent or Greater Interest in IAC or otherwise jeopardize the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution,

unless, in each case, prior to taking any such action set forth in the foregoing clauses (A) through (E), (x) IAC shall have obtained a private letter ruling (or, if applicable, a supplemental private letter ruling) from the IRS and/or any other applicable Tax Authority in accordance with Section 7.02(b) and (c) to the effect that such transaction will not affect the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution (taken together with the Contribution), and IAC, shall have received such a private letter ruling in form and substance satisfactory to New IAC in its reasonable discretion (and in determining whether a private letter ruling is satisfactory, New IAC may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions and management’s representations made in connection with such private letter ruling), (y) IAC shall have provided New IAC with an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance satisfactory to New IAC in its reasonable discretion (and in determining whether an opinion is satisfactory, New IAC may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions (other than assumptions pursuant to Section 7.02(d)) and management’s representations if used as a basis for the opinion) or (z) New IAC shall have waived the requirement to obtain such private letter ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion.

(iii) Nothing in Section 7.01(a) shall prohibit IAC or any IAC Affiliate from undertaking a Committed Acquisition in accordance with its terms.

-26-

(e) If there is a change in Law (including IRS published guidance on which taxpayers may rely) occurring after the date of the Transaction Agreement that adversely affects the tax treatment of a Specified Committed Acquisition for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code, IAC agrees that (i) reasonably in advance of effecting, or causing any member of the New Match Group to effect, such Specified Committed Acquisition, IAC shall (A) provide New IAC written notice of such Specified Committed Acquisition and (B) consult with New IAC, including by providing any information that New IAC may reasonably request with respect to such Specified Committed Acquisition and the impact thereof on the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution at New IAC’s cost and expense and (ii) to the extent that (A) New IAC notifies in writing IAC of its determination, based on the information provided pursuant to clause (i) (and any other relevant information available at such time), that cash settlement of the relevant right or obligation under such Specified Committed Acquisition is reasonably required to avoid a Built-in Change Loss and (B) IAC or the applicable IAC Affiliate is permitted to do so under the terms of such right or obligation, IAC shall settle or extinguish (or cause to be settled or extinguished) such right or obligation by using cash (and not shares of IAC Capital Stock), unless New IAC otherwise consents in writing.

Section 7.02 Procedures Regarding Opinions and Rulings.

(a) If New IAC or IAC (such Company, the “Requesting Company”) notifies IAC or New IAC, respectively (such company, the “Consenting Company”) that it desires to take one of the actions described in clauses (A) through (E) of Section 7.01(d)(i) or (ii), as applicable (a “Notified Action”), the Consenting Company and the Requesting Company shall reasonably cooperate to attempt to obtain the private letter ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion referred to in Section 7.01(d)(i) or (ii), as applicable, unless the Consenting Company shall have waived the requirement to obtain such private letter ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion.

(b) Rulings or Unqualified Tax Opinions at the Requesting Company’s Request. At the reasonable request of the Requesting Company pursuant to Section 7.01(d)(i) or (ii), as applicable, the Consenting Company shall cooperate with the Requesting Company and the Companies shall use reasonable best efforts to seek to obtain, as expeditiously as possible, a private letter ruling from the IRS (or if applicable, a supplemental private letter ruling) or an Unqualified Tax Opinion for the purpose of permitting the Requesting Company to take the Notified Action. Further, in no event shall any request for a private letter ruling be filed under this Section 7.02(b) unless the Requesting Company represents that (i) it has reviewed the request for such private letter ruling, and (ii) all information and representations, if any, relating to any member of the relevant Company Group, contained in the related documents are (subject to any qualifications therein) true, correct and complete; provided, that the Consenting Company shall not be required to make (or cause any of its Affiliates to make) any representation or covenant that is inconsistent with historical facts or as to future matters or events over which it has no control). The Requesting Company shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Company (or the members of its Group) in obtaining a private letter ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion requested by the Requesting Company and shall reimburse such other Company within 15 Business Days after receiving an invoice from such other Company therefor.

-27-

(c) Ruling Process Control. In connection with obtaining a private letter ruling pursuant to Section 7.02(b), the Requesting Company (i) shall have control over the process of obtaining such private letter ruling, (ii) shall keep the Consenting Company informed in a timely manner of all material actions taken or proposed to be taken by the Requesting Company in connection therewith; (iii) (A) reasonably in advance of the submission of any related private letter ruling documents provide the Consenting Company with a draft copy thereof, (B) reasonably consider the Consenting Company’s comments on such draft copy, and (C) provide the Consenting Company with a final copy; and (iv) shall provide the Consenting Company with notice reasonably in advance of, and the Consenting Company shall have the right to attend, any formally scheduled meetings with the IRS (subject to the approval of the IRS) that relate to such private letter ruling. The Consenting Company shall execute and deliver to the Requesting Company any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by the Requesting Company in connection with the process of obtaining a private letter ruling. Subject to Section 7.02(b), neither IAC, New IAC nor any of their respective directly or indirectly controlled Affiliates shall seek any guidance from the IRS or any other Tax Authority (whether written, verbal or otherwise) at any time concerning any Transaction that is the subject of a Tax Opinion (including the impact of any transaction on any of the foregoing) without the other Company’s prior written consent.

(d) New IAC hereby represents, and for purposes of this Agreement, IAC and its Subsidiaries may assume, that: (i) as of immediately after the consummation of the Match Merger and the IAC Class M Equity Offering, the aggregate percentage of IAC Capital Stock (not taking into account overlapping share ownership), by vote and value, that may not be accorded safe harbor treatment pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(d) does not exceed the percentage(s) set forth on Schedule 3 hereto (which shall be delivered by New IAC to IAC as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Match Merger Effective Time), and (ii) Compensatory Equity Interests denominated in IAC stock immediately prior to the Mandatory Exchange Effective Time were issued to persons in connection with the performance of services as an employee, director or independent contractor for IAC or its subsidiaries. In the event New IAC determines in good faith that any information described on Schedule 3 is inaccurate, it shall promptly provide IAC with a revised Schedule 3, together with supporting information in reasonable detail and, following IAC’s receipt of such revised Schedule 3, IAC and its Subsidiaries may no longer assume, on a prospective basis, that any information set forth on the earlier Schedule 3 remains accurate, but may assume that the information set forth on the revised Schedule 3 is accurate. New IAC covenants that, in connection with matters relevant to Section 355(e) of the Code, upon reasonable request by IAC, it will, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its employees and other relevant persons (“New IAC Persons”) to, promptly provide written information to IAC and its representatives regarding the existence (or absence) of any “agreement, understanding, arrangement or substantial negotiations” (as those terms are defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(h)) during the two-year period preceding the Mandatory Exchange Effective Time regarding any acquisition of IAC Capital Stock between such New IAC Persons, on the one hand, and any Person or Persons identified by IAC to New IAC, on the other hand; provided, that IAC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such information also from the Person or Persons so identified by IAC. For purposes of this Agreement, provided IAC complied with its obligation pursuant to this Section 7.02(d), IAC may rely on the accuracy of the information provided by New IAC pursuant to this Section 7.02(d) absent actual knowledge to the contrary.

If a Section 336(e) Election is made with respect to the Distribution, then this Agreement shall be amended in such a manner as is determined by IAC and New IAC in good faith to take into account such Section 336(e) Election(s), including by requiring that, in the event (i) the Contribution or the Distribution fails to have Tax-Free Status and (ii) a Company (or such Company’s Group) that does not have exclusive responsibility pursuant to this Agreement for Tax-Related Losses arising from such failure actually realizes in cash a Tax Benefit from the step-up in Tax basis resulting from the relevant Section 336(e) Election(s), such Company shall pay over to the Company that has exclusive responsibility pursuant to this Agreement for such Tax-Related Losses any such Tax Benefits realized (provided, that, if such Tax-Related Losses are Taxes for which more than one Company is liable under Section 7.03(c), the Company that actually realizes in cash the Tax Benefit resulting from the relevant Section 336(e) Election shall pay over to the other Company responsible for such Taxes the percentage of any such Tax Benefits realized that corresponds to such other Company’s percentage share of such Tax-Related Losses).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement, in no event shall any of the Companies or any of their respective Affiliates be required to provide the other Companies or any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person access to or copies of any information if such action could reasonably be expected to result in the waiver of any Privilege. In addition, in the event that any of the Companies determine that the provision of any information to the other Companies or their respective Affiliates could be commercially detrimental, violate any law or agreement or waive any Privilege, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to permit compliance with their obligations under this Section 8 or Section 9 in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

New IAC agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each member of the New Match Group and its directors, officers and employees from and against any fine, penalty, or other cost or expense of any kind attributable to a member of the New IAC Group having supplied, pursuant to this Section 8, a member of the New Match Group with inaccurate or incomplete information in connection with a Tax liability; provided, that, this Section 8.04 shall not apply to information governed by Section 4.08.

Section 9. Tax Records.

Section 9.01 Retention of Tax Records. IAC and New IAC, respectively, shall preserve and keep all Tax Records exclusively relating to the assets and activities of the New Match Group and the New IAC Group, respectively, for the Pre-Deconsolidation Period, and IAC shall preserve and keep all other Tax Records relating to Taxes of the Groups for the Pre-Deconsolidation Period, for so long as the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (a) the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitations, or (b) seven years after the Deconsolidation Date (such later date, the “Retention Date”). After the Retention Date, each Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the other Company. If, prior to the Retention Date, a Company reasonably determines that any Tax Records that it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this Section 9 are no longer material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and the other Company agrees, then such first Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior notice to the other Company. Any notice of an intent to dispose given pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall include a list of the Tax Records to be disposed of describing in reasonable detail the files, books, or other records being disposed. The notified Company shall have the opportunity, at its cost and expense, to copy or remove, within such 90-day period, all or any part of such Tax Records.

Section 9.02 Access to Tax Records. The Companies and their respective Affiliates shall make available to each other for inspection and copying during normal business hours upon reasonable notice all Tax Records for Pre-Deconsolidation Periods to the extent reasonably required by the other Company in connection with the preparation of financial accounting statements, audits, litigation, or the resolution of items under this Agreement.

Section 10. Tax Contests.

Section 10.01 Notice. Each of the Companies shall provide prompt notice to the other of any written communication from a Tax Authority regarding any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment or proceeding or other Tax Contest for which it may be entitled to indemnification by the other Company hereunder. Such notice shall include copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Tax Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail. The failure of one Company to notify the other of such communication in accordance with the immediately preceding sentences shall not relieve the other Company of any liability or obligation to pay such Tax or make indemnification payments under this Agreement, except to the extent that the failure timely to provide such notification actually prejudices the ability of such other Company to contest such Tax liability or increases the amount of such Tax liability.

Section 10.02 Control of Tax Contests.

(a) Separate Company Taxes and Joint Returns with Respect to Other Taxes. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any (i) Separate Return or (ii) Joint Return with respect to Other Taxes, the Company having liability for the Tax shall have exclusive control over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Section 10.02(e).

-33-

(b) New Match Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return and New Match State Combined Income Tax Return.

(c) New Match Foreign Combined Income Tax Return. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any New Match Foreign Combined Income Tax Return, IAC shall have exclusive control over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Section 10.02(e).

(d) Other Joint Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Joint Return (other than any New Match Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return, New Match State Combined Income Tax Return, New Match Foreign Combined Income Tax Return, or Joint Return with respect to Other Taxes), (i) IAC shall control the defense or prosecution of the portion of the Tax Contest, if any, directly and exclusively related to any New Match Adjustment, including settlement of any such New Match Adjustment, (ii) New IAC shall control the defense or prosecution of the portion of the Tax Contest, if any, directly and exclusively related to any New IAC Adjustment, including settlement of any such New IAC Adjustment, and (iii) the Companies shall jointly control the defense or prosecution of Joint Adjustments and any and all administrative matters not directly and exclusively related to any New Match Adjustment or New IAC Adjustment. In the event of any disagreement regarding any matter described in clause (iii), the provisions of Section 14 shall apply.

(e) Transaction-Related and Certain Other Tax Contests.

(i) In the event of any Transaction-Related Tax Contest or other Tax Contest as a result of which New IAC could reasonably be expected to become exclusively liable for any Tax or Tax-Related Losses (or as a result of which New IAC could reasonably be expected to become liable for a portion of any Tax or Tax-Related Losses and such portion of such Tax Contest is separable from the remaining portion of such Tax Contest) and which IAC has the right to administer and control pursuant to Section 10.02(a), (b) or (c), New IAC shall have the right to elect to assume control of such Tax Contest (or such separable portion of such Tax Contest), in which case the provisions of Section 10.02(e)(iv) shall apply.

(ii) In the event of any Transaction-Related Tax Contest or other Tax Contest as a result of which New IAC could reasonably be expected to become liable for a portion of any Tax or Tax-Related Losses (and such portion of such Tax Contest is not separable from the remaining portion of such Tax Contest), and which IAC has the right to administer and control pursuant to Section 10.02(a), (b) or (c), (A) if New IAC is reasonably expected to bear the greater Tax liability in connection with such Tax Contest, New IAC shall have the right to elect to assume control of such Tax Contest, in which case the provisions of Section 10.02(e)(iv) shall apply and (B) if IAC is reasonably expected to bear the greater Tax liability in connection with such Tax Contest (or if New IAC does not elect to assume control of a Tax Contest it is entitled to elect to control pursuant to clause (A) hereof), (1) IAC shall consult with New IAC reasonably in advance of taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Contest, (2) IAC shall consult with New IAC and offer New IAC a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Contest, (3) IAC shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith, (4) New IAC shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Contest and receive copies of any written materials relating to such Tax Contest received from the relevant Tax Authority, and (5) IAC shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Contest without obtaining the prior written consent of New IAC, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

-34-

New IAC shall (and shall cause each member of the New IAC Group to) execute and deliver to IAC (or such member of the New Match Group as IAC shall designate) any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by IAC (or such designee) in connection with any Tax Contest controlled by IAC described in this Section 10.

Subject to clause (b) of the preceding sentence, upon such termination and settlement, no further payments by or to IAC or such Subsidiaries or by or to New IAC or such members of the New IAC Group, with respect to such agreements or arrangements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements or arrangements shall cease at such time.

-35-

Section 12. Survival of Obligations. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time.

Section 13. Treatment of Payments; Tax Gross Up.

Section 13.01 Treatment of Tax Indemnity and Tax Benefit Payments. In the absence of any change in Tax treatment under the Code or other applicable Tax Law, for all Income Tax purposes, the Companies agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat, (a) any indemnity payment required by this Agreement or by the Transaction Agreement to be made (i) by IAC to New IAC as a contribution by IAC to New IAC occurring immediately prior to the Distribution and (ii) by New IAC to IAC as reasonably determined by IAC and New IAC (including (A) as a payment in satisfaction by New IAC (or a member of the New IAC Group) of its own liability, (B) as an adjustment to the amount of cash transferred by IAC to New IAC pursuant to the Contribution, or (C) as a distribution by New IAC to IAC occurring immediately prior to the Distribution and transfer to creditors described in Section 361(b)(3)); and (b) any payment of interest or State Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the Company entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to minimize or eliminate, to the extent permissible under applicable law, any Tax that would otherwise be imposed with respect to any payment required by this Agreement or by the Transaction Agreement (or maximize the ability to obtain a credit for, or refund of, any such Tax).

Section 13.02 Tax Gross Up. If notwithstanding the manner in which payments described in Section 13.01(a) were reported, there is a Tax liability or an adjustment to a Tax liability of a Company as a result of its receipt of a payment pursuant to this Agreement or Article X of the Transaction Agreement, such payment shall be appropriately adjusted so that the amount of such payment, reduced by the amount of all Income Taxes payable with respect to the receipt thereof (but taking into account all correlative Tax Benefits resulting from the payment of such Income Taxes), shall equal the amount of the payment that the Company receiving such payment would otherwise be entitled to receive.

Section 13.03 Interest. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent one Company makes a payment of interest to another Company under this Agreement with respect to the period from (a) the date that the payor was required to make a payment to the payee to (b) the date that the payor actually made such payment, the interest payment shall be treated as interest expense to the payor (deductible to the extent provided by law) and as interest income by the payee (includible in income to the extent provided by law). The amount of the payment shall not be adjusted to take into account any associated Tax Benefit to the payor or increase in Tax to the payee.

-36-

Section 14. Disagreements. The Companies desire that collaboration will continue among them. Accordingly, they will try, and they will cause their respective Group members to try, to resolve in good faith all disagreements regarding their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute or disagreement (a “Tax Advisor Dispute”) between any member of the New IAC Group and any member of the New Match Group as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the performance of obligations hereunder, representatives of the Tax departments of the Companies shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute. If such good faith negotiations do not resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute, then such Tax Advisor Dispute shall be resolved pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article XII of the Transaction Agreement; provided, that each of the mediators or arbitrators selected in accordance with Article XII of the Transaction Agreement must be Tax Advisors. Nothing in this Section 14 will prevent either Company from seeking injunctive relief if any delay resulting from the efforts to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute through the procedures set forth in Article XII of the Transaction Agreement could result in serious and irreparable injury to such Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Transaction Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, New IAC and IAC are the only members of their respective Groups (including, for this purpose, the members of the New Match Group) entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, and each of New IAC and IAC will cause its respective Group members (including, for this purpose, the members of the New Match Group) not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such Party as provided in this Section 14.

Section 15. Late Payments. Any amount owed by one Party to another Party under this Agreement that is not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% (or the maximum legal rate, whichever is lower), calculated for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the date on which such payment was due up to the date of the actual receipt of payment.

Section 16. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party and its Affiliates shall bear their own expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns, Tax Contests, and other matters related to Taxes under the provisions of this Agreement.

This Agreement, the Transaction Agreement, and the other Ancillary Agreements together govern the arrangements in connection with the Transactions and would not have been entered independently.

Section 17.10 Counterparts. Each Party acknowledges that it and the other Party may execute this Agreement by facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature. Each Party expressly adopts and confirms each facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature, agrees that it will not assert that any such signature is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were signed manually and agrees that at the reasonable request of the other Party at any time it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the data of the initial date hereof). This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Party.
