Dear Stockholder:

You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting of stockholders of IAC/InterActiveCorp, which will be held on Thursday, June 23, 2022, at 9:30 a.m., Eastern Time. This year’s Annual Meeting will be a virtual meeting, conducted solely online. Stockholders will be able to attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IAC2022. We believe hosting a virtual meeting will allow for greater stockholder attendance at the Annual Meeting by enabling stockholders who might not otherwise be able to travel to a physical meeting to attend online and participate from any location around the world.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to: (i) elect twelve directors, (ii) approve an advisory vote on 2021 executive compensation and (iii) ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year. IAC’s board of directors believes that the proposals being submitted for stockholder approval are in the best interests of IAC and its stockholders and recommends a vote consistent with the Board’s recommendation for each proposal.

It is important that your shares be represented and voted at the Annual Meeting regardless of the size of your holdings. Whether or not you plan to participate in the Annual Meeting, please take the time to vote online, by telephone or, if you received a printed proxy card, by returning a marked, signed and dated proxy card. If you participate in the Annual Meeting, you may also vote your shares online at that time if you wish, even if you have previously submitted your vote.

Sincerely,

Barry Diller
Chairman and Senior Executive

PROXY STATEMENT
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials?

In accordance with rules adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to deliver this proxy statement and our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K to the majority of our stockholders online in lieu of mailing printed copies of these materials to each of our stockholders (the “Notice Process”). If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) by mail, you will not receive printed copies of our proxy materials unless you request them. Instead, the Notice provides instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K online, as well as how to obtain printed copies of these materials by mail. We believe that the Notice Process allows us to provide our stockholders with the information they need in a more timely manner than if we had elected to mail printed materials, while reducing the environmental impact of (and lowering the costs associated with) the printing and distribution of our proxy materials.

The Notice, and for stockholders who previously elected to receive printed copies of our proxy materials, this proxy statement and our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, are being mailed on or about May 6, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 27, 2022 and this proxy statement and our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K will be available at www.proxyvote.com beginning on May 6, 2022. If you received a Notice by mail but would rather receive printed copies of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice. You will not receive a Notice if you have previously elected to receive printed copies of our proxy materials.

Can I vote my shares by filling out and returning the Notice?

No. However, the Notice provides instructions on how to vote your shares: (i) before the date of the Annual Meeting by way of completing and submitting your proxy online, by phone or by requesting and returning a written proxy card by mail or (ii) by voting at the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IAC2022.

How do I participate in the Annual Meeting?

You may attend the annual meeting as a guest or as a stockholder. To vote or ask questions at the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IAC2022, you will need the details included (and to follow the instructions set forth) on your Notice, your proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Holders of IAC common stock and Class B common stock at the close of business on April 27, 2022, the record date for the Annual Meeting established by IAC’s board of directors, are entitled to receive notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote their shares at the Annual Meeting and any related adjournments or postponements.

At the close of business on April 27, 2022, there were 84,084,023 shares of IAC common stock and 5,789,499 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. Holders of IAC common stock are entitled to one vote per share and holders of Class B common stock are entitled to ten votes per share.

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a stockholder who holds IAC shares in street name?

If your IAC shares are registered in your name, you are a stockholder of record. If your IAC shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or other holder of record, your shares are held in street name.

You may examine a list of the stockholders of record at the close of business on April 27, 2022 for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting during normal business hours during the 10-day period preceding the date of the meeting at IAC’s corporate headquarters, located at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What shares are included on the enclosed proxy card?

If you are a stockholder of record only, you will receive one proxy card from Broadridge for all IAC shares that you hold. If you hold IAC shares in street name through one or more banks, brokers and/or other holders of record, you will receive proxy materials, together with voting instructions and information regarding the consolidation of your votes, from the third party or parties through which your IAC shares are held. If you are a stockholder of record and hold additional IAC shares in street name, you will receive proxy materials from Broadridge and the third party or parties through which your IAC shares are held.

What are the quorum requirements for the Annual Meeting?

The presence at the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, of holders having a majority of the total votes entitled to be cast by holders of IAC common stock and Class B common stock at the Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum. Stockholders who participate in the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IAC2022 will be deemed to be in person attendees for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been met. When the holders of IAC common stock vote as a separate class, the presence at the Annual Meeting of holders of a majority of the total votes entitled to be cast by holders of IAC common stock is required for a quorum to be met. When the holders of IAC Class B common stock vote as a separate class, the presence at the Annual Meeting of holders of a majority of the total votes entitled to be cast by holders of IAC Class B common stock is required for a quorum to be met. Shares of IAC common stock and Class B common stock represented by proxy will be treated as present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum, without regard to whether the proxy is marked as casting a vote or abstaining. In the absence of a quorum, the chairperson of the Annual Meeting or holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of IAC common stock and Class B common stock represented at the Annual Meeting will have the power to adjourn the Annual Meeting until a quorum is present.

What matters will IAC stockholders vote on at the Annual Meeting?

IAC stockholders will vote on the following proposals:

•

Proposal 1 — to elect twelve members of IAC’s board of directors, each to hold office until the next succeeding annual meeting of stockholders or until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified (or, if earlier, such director’s removal or resignation from IAC’s board of directors);

•

Proposal 2 — to approve a non-bonding advisory vote on 2021 executive compensation (the “Advisory Say on Pay Proposal”);

•

Proposal 3 — to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year; and

•

to transact such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting and any related adjournments or postponements.

What are my voting choices when voting for director nominees and what votes are required to elect director nominees to IAC’s Board of Directors?

You may vote in favor of all director nominees, withhold votes as to all director nominees or vote in favor of and withhold votes as to specific director nominees.

The election of each of Chelsea Clinton, Barry Diller, Michael D. Eisner, Bonnie S. Hammer, Victor A. Kaufman, Joseph Levin, Westley Moore, David Rosenblatt and Alexander von Furstenberg as directors requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the total number of votes cast by the holders of shares of IAC common stock and Class B common stock voting together as a single class (hereinafter collectively referred to as “IAC capital stock”), with each share of IAC common stock and Class B common stock representing the right to one and ten vote(s), respectively.

The election of each of Bryan Lourd, Alan G. Spoon and Richard F. Zannino as directors requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the total number of votes cast by the holders of shares of IAC common stock voting as a separate class.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

IAC’s board of directors recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the director nominees.

What are my voting choices when voting on the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal and what votes are required to approve such proposal?

You may vote in favor of the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal, vote against such proposal or abstain from voting on such proposal.

The approval of the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of IAC capital stock present at the Annual Meeting in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter, voting together as a single class. As an advisory vote, the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal is not binding upon IAC or its board of directors.

IAC’s board of directors recommends a vote FOR the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal.

What are my voting choices when voting on the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year and what votes are required to ratify such appointment?

You may vote in favor of the ratification, vote against the ratification or abstain from voting on the ratification.

The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of shares of IAC capital stock present at the Annual Meeting in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter, voting together as a single class.

IAC’s board of directors recommends a vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year.

Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

As of the date of this proxy statement, IAC did not know of any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting, other than those referred to in this proxy statement.

If any other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration, the three IAC officers who have been designated as proxies for the Annual Meeting (Christopher Halpin, Kendall Handler and Joanne Hawkins) will have the discretion to vote on any such matters for stockholders who have submitted their proxy.

What do I need to do now to vote at the Annual Meeting?

IAC’s board of directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders may submit proxies to instruct the designated proxies to vote their shares before the date of the Annual Meeting in any of three ways:

•

Submitting a proxy online: Submit your proxy online at www.proxyvote.com. Online proxy voting is available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on Wednesday, June 22, 2022;

•

Submitting a proxy by telephone: Submit your proxy by telephone (1.800.690.6903). Telephone proxy voting is available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on Wednesday, June 22, 2022; or

•

Submitting a proxy by mail: If you choose to submit your proxy by mail, simply mark, date and sign your proxy, and return it in the postage-paid envelope provided or to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

You may also participate in the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IAC2022 and vote your shares online at that time, even if you have previously submitted your vote. To do so, you will need the details included (and to follow the instructions set forth) on your Notice, your proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

For IAC shares held in street name, holders may submit a proxy online or by telephone before the date of the Annual Meeting if their broker, bank and/or other holder of record makes these methods available. If you submit a proxy online or by telephone, DO NOT request and return a printed proxy card. If you hold your shares through a broker, bank and/or other holder of record, follow the voting instructions you receive from your broker, bank and/or other holder of record.

If I hold my IAC shares in street name, will my broker, bank or other holder of record vote these shares for me?

If your IAC shares are held in street name, you must provide your broker, bank and/or other holder of record with instructions in order to vote such shares. If you do not provide voting instructions, whether such shares can be voted by your broker, bank and/or other holder of record depends on the type of item being considered for a vote.

Non-Discretionary Items. The election of directors and the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal are non-discretionary items and may NOT be voted on by your broker, bank and/or other holder of record absent specific voting instructions from you. If your bank, broker or other holder of record does not receive specific voting instructions from you, a “broker non-vote” will occur in the case of your IAC shares for these proposals.

Discretionary Items. The ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year is a discretionary item. Generally, brokers, banks and other holders of record that do not receive voting instructions from you may vote on this proposal in their discretion.

What effect do abstentions and broker non-votes have on quorum requirements and the voting results for each proposal to be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

Abstentions and shares represented by broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum. Abstentions are treated as shares present and entitled to vote and, as a result, have the same effect as a vote against any proposal for which the voting standard is based on the number of shares present at the Annual Meeting (the Say on Pay Proposal and the auditor ratification proposal) and have no impact on the vote on any proposal for which the vote standard is based on the actual number of votes cast at the meeting (the election of directors). Shares represented by broker non-votes are not treated as shares entitled to vote and, as a result, have no effect on the outcome of any of the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the polls close at the Annual Meeting by:

•

submitting a later-dated proxy relating to the same IAC shares online, by telephone or by mail before the date of the Annual Meeting;

•

delivering a written notice, bearing a date later than your proxy, stating that you revoke the proxy; or

•

participating in the Annual Meeting and voting online at that time at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/IAC2022 (although virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, change your vote or revoke a proxy).

To change your vote or revoke your proxy before the date of the Annual Meeting, follow the instructions provided on your Notice, proxy card or proxy materials to do so online or by telephone, or send a written notice or a new proxy card to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

If you hold your IAC shares through a broker, bank and/or other holder of record, follow the instructions that you received from your broker, bank and/or other holder of record if you wish to change your vote or revoke your proxy.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What if I do not specify a choice for a matter when returning a proxy?

If you do not give specific instructions, proxies that are signed and returned will be voted FOR the election of all director nominees, the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal and the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year.

How are proxies solicited and who bears the related costs?

IAC bears all expenses incurred in connection with the solicitation of proxies. In addition to solicitations by mail, directors, officers and employees of IAC may solicit proxies from stockholders by various means, including by telephone, e-mail, letter or in person.

Following the initial mailing of the Notice and proxy materials, IAC will request brokers, banks and other holders of record to forward copies of these materials to persons for whom they hold IAC shares and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, IAC, upon the request of these holders, will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

What should I do if I have questions about the Annual Meeting?

If you have any questions about the Annual Meeting, the various proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting and/or how to participate in the Annual Meeting online at www.virtualsharesholdermeeting.com/IAC2022 and vote at that time or would like copies of our proxy materials, please contact IAC Investor Relations at 1.212.314.7400 or ir@iac.com.

PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Proposal and Required Vote

At the upcoming Annual Meeting, a board of twelve directors will be elected, each to hold office until the next succeeding annual meeting of stockholders or until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified (or, if earlier, such director’s removal or resignation from IAC’s board of directors). Information concerning director nominees, all of whom are incumbent directors of IAC and have been recommended by the Nominating Committee for re-election, appears below. Although management does not anticipate that any of the persons named below will be unable or unwilling to stand for re-election, in the event of such an occurrence, proxies may be voted for a substitute designated by IAC’s board of directors.

IAC’s board of directors has designated Bryan Lourd, Alan G. Spoon and Richard F. Zannino as nominees for those positions on IAC’s board of directors to be elected by the holders of IAC common stock voting as a separate class. The election of each of them as directors requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the total number of votes cast by the holders of shares of IAC common stock voting as a separate class.

Both the Nominating Committee and IAC’s board of directors recommend a vote FOR the election of all director nominees.

Information Concerning Director Nominees

Background information about each director nominee is set forth below, including information regarding the specific experiences, characteristics, attributes and skills considered in connection with the nomination of each director nominee, all of which the Nominating Committee and IAC’s board of directors believe provide IAC with the perspective and judgment needed to guide, monitor and execute its strategies. References to service at IAC prior to June 2020 refer to IAC’s predecessor entity or entities (as applicable).

Chelsea Clinton, age 42, has been a director of IAC since September 2011. Since March 2013, Ms. Clinton has served as Vice Chair of the Clinton Foundation, where her work emphasizes improving global and domestic health, creating service opportunities and empowering the next generation of leaders. Ms. Clinton also currently teaches at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health. Ms. Clinton has served as a member of the board of directors of the Clinton Health Access Initiative since September 2011 and previously served as a member of the board of directors of the Clinton Foundation from September 2011 to February 2013. From March 2010 through May 2013, Ms. Clinton served as an Assistant Vice Provost at New York University, where she focused on interfaith initiatives and the university’s global expansion program. From November 2011 to August 2014, Ms. Clinton also worked as a special correspondent for NBC News. Prior to these efforts, Ms. Clinton worked as an associate at McKinsey & Company, a consulting firm, from August 2003 to October 2006, and as an associate at Avenue Capital Group, an investment firm, from October 2006 to November 2009. Ms. Clinton has served as a member of the boards of directors of Expedia Group, Inc. since March 2017, Nurx (a telemedicine start-up company) since June 2018 and Clover Health Investments, Corp. (a next-generation Medicare Advantage insurance company) beginning prior to its January 2021 initial public offering to date. Ms. Clinton is also a co-founder and partner of Metrodora Ventures (a venture capital firm focused on health and learning businesses). In addition to her for-profit affiliations, Ms. Clinton currently serves as a member of the boards of directors of The School of American Ballet, the Africa Center, the Weill Cornell Medical College, HiddenLight Productions Limited and Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health, and as Co-Chair of the Advisory Board of the Of Many Institute at New York University. When concluding that Ms. Clinton should serve as a director, IAC’s board of directors considered her broad public policy experience and keen intellectual acumen, which together the board believes brings a unique perspective to IAC’s businesses and initiatives, as well as her private equity and venture capital experience, which the board believes gives her particular insight into investment strategy.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Barry Diller, age 80, has been a director and Chairman and Senior Executive of IAC since December 2010. Mr. Diller previously served as a director and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IAC from August 1995 to November 2010. Mr. Diller also serves as Chairman and Senior Executive of Expedia Group, Inc., which position he has held since August 2005. Mr. Diller, along with Expedia Group’s Vice Chairman, oversaw the company’s executive leadership team, managing day-to-day operations, from December 2019 until April 2020, when Expedia Group, Inc.’s Vice Chairman also became the company’s Chief Executive Officer. Prior to joining IAC, Mr. Diller was Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of QVC, Inc. from December 1992 through December 1994. From 1984 to 1992, Mr. Diller served as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Fox, Inc. Prior to joining Fox, Inc., Mr. Diller served for ten years as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Paramount Pictures Corporation. Mr. Diller served as Chairman (in a non-executive capacity) of the board of directors of Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (and its predecessor companies, Ticketmaster Entertainment and Ticketmaster) (“Live Nation”)) from August 2008 to October 2010, and continued to serve as a member of the board of directors of Live Nation through January 2011. Mr. Diller also served as Chairman and Senior Executive of TripAdvisor, Inc., an online travel company (“TripAdvisor”), from December 2011 to December 2012, served as a member of the board of directors of TripAdvisor from December 2011 through April 2013 and served as a special advisor to the Chief Executive Officer of TripAdvisor from April 2013 to March 2017. Mr. Diller is also currently a member of the board of directors of The Coca-Cola Company and MGM Resorts International and served as a member of the board of directors of Graham Holdings Company (formerly The Washington Post Company) during the past five years. In addition to his for-profit affiliations, Mr. Diller is a member of The Business Council and serves on the Dean’s Council of The New York University Tisch School of the Arts, the Board of Councilors for the School of Cinema-Television at the University of Southern California and the Advisory Board of the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, among other not-for-profit affiliations. IAC’s board of directors nominated Mr. Diller because he has been Chairman and Senior Executive since 2010 and prior to that time, served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IAC since 1995, and as a result, possesses a great depth of knowledge and experience regarding IAC and its businesses. In addition, the board noted Mr. Diller’s ability to exercise influence (subject to IAC’s organizational documents and Delaware law) over the outcome of matters involving IAC that require stockholder approval given the fact that he and certain members of his family collectively have sole voting and/or investment power over all shares of IAC Class B common stock outstanding, which shares represent a significant percentage of the voting power of IAC capital stock.

Michael D. Eisner, age 80, has been a director of IAC since March 2011. Mr. Eisner has served as Chairman of The Tornante Company, LLC, a privately held company that invests in, acquires, incubates and operates media and entertainment companies (“Tornante”), since 2005. Mr. Eisner currently serves as Chairman of the board of directors of the Portsmouth Community Football Club Limited, a League One English football club, which Tornante acquired in August 2017. Mr. Eisner also previously served as Chairman of two Tornante portfolio companies, The Topps Company, a leading creator and marketer of sports cards, distinctive confectionery and other entertainment products, and Vuguru, a studio focusing on the production of groundbreaking programming for the internet and other digital platforms. Mr. Eisner served as Chairman of The Topps Company from October 2007 to April 2013, and then again from January 1, 2021 until January 2022, when the sports and entertainment portion of the company was sold, leaving the candy and digital card services portion, now known as The Bazooka Companies, Inc., where Mr. Eisner serves as Chairman. Mr. Eisner also served as Chairman of Vuguru from October 2009 to December 2014, when Tornante acquired that portion of Vuguru that it did not already own. Prior to founding Tornante, Mr. Eisner served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company from 1984. In addition to his for-profit affiliations, Mr. Eisner serves on the boards of directors of Denison University, The Aspen Institute, the Yale School of Architecture Dean’s Council and The Eisner Foundation. When concluding that Mr. Eisner should serve as a director, IAC’s board of directors considered his experience with Tornante, which the board believes gives him particular insight into investments in, and the development and operation of, media and entertainment companies that focus on programming and content for emerging platforms. IAC’s board of directors also considered Mr. Eisner’s experience as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company, which the board believes gives him particular insight into business strategy and leadership, marketing and consumer branding, as well as a high level of financial literacy and insight into the media and entertainment industries.

Corporate Governance

Leadership Structure. IAC’s business and affairs are overseen by its board of directors, which currently has twelve members. There are three management representatives on IAC’s board of directors and, of the nine remaining current directors, eight are independent. IAC’s board of directors has standing Audit, Compensation and Human Resources and Nominating Committees, each comprised solely of independent directors, as well as an Executive Committee. For more information regarding director independence and committees of IAC’s board of directors, see the discussion under Director Independence and Board of Directors and Board Committees below. All of IAC’s directors play an active role in board matters, are encouraged to communicate among themselves and directly with IAC’s Chairman and Senior Executive and Chief Executive Officer and have full access to IAC management at all times.

IAC’s independent directors meet in scheduled executive sessions without IAC management present at least twice a year and may schedule additional meetings as they deem appropriate. IAC’s board of directors does not have a lead independent director or any other formally appointed leader for these sessions. The independent membership of the Audit, Compensation and Human Resources and Nominating Committees ensures that directors with no ties to IAC management are charged with oversight for all financial reporting and executive compensation related decisions made by IAC management, as well as for recommending candidates for board membership. At each regularly scheduled board meeting, the Chairperson of each of these committees (as and if applicable) provides the full board with an update of all significant matters discussed, reviewed, considered and/or approved by the relevant committee since the last regularly scheduled board meeting.

Mr. Diller currently serves as both Chairman and Senior Executive of IAC and has held both positions (for IAC and its predecessor entity) since December 2010. Mr. Levin currently serves as Chief Executive Officer of IAC and has held this position (for IAC and its predecessor entity) since June 2015. This leadership structure provides IAC with the benefit of Mr. Diller’s continued oversight of IAC’s strategic goals and vision, coupled with the benefit of a full time Chief Executive Officer dedicated to focusing on the day-to-day management and continued growth of IAC and its operating businesses. At this time, IAC believes that this leadership structure is the most appropriate one for IAC and its stockholders.

Risk Oversight. IAC management is responsible for assessing and managing IAC’s exposure to various risks on a day-to-day basis, which responsibilities include the creation of appropriate risk management programs and policies. IAC management has developed and implemented guidelines and policies to identify, assess and manage significant risks facing IAC. Such guidelines and policies include (among others) an annual risk assessment across all of IAC’s business, in connection with which management at each IAC

TABLE OF CONTENTS

business assesses strategic, financial, operational, information security and regulatory risks, together with related mitigation plans. The results of this assessment are then consolidated and reviewed by IAC senior management, after which they are discussed with the Audit Committee and IAC’s board of directors.

In developing this framework, IAC recognizes that leadership and success are impossible without taking risks; however, the imprudent acceptance of risks or the failure to appropriately identify and mitigate risks could adversely impact IAC stockholder value. IAC’s board of directors is responsible for overseeing IAC management in the execution of its responsibilities and for assessing IAC’s approach to risk management. IAC’s board of directors exercises these responsibilities periodically as part of its meetings and through discussions with IAC management, as well as through the Audit Committee (which examines various components of financial, cybersecurity and workplace conduct risks, among other risks) and the Compensation and Human Resources Committees (which examines compensation-related risks, among others) as part of their responsibilities.

Information security and cybersecurity are key components of risk management at IAC and its Chief Information Security Officer briefs the Audit Committee each quarter (and where appropriate, IAC’s board of directors) on the information security and cybersecurity programs of IAC and its various businesses and related priorities and controls. Certain compensation-related matters are also key components of risk management at IAC, with IAC periodically conducting risk assessments of its compensation policies and practices for its employees, including those related to its executive compensation programs. The goal of these assessments is to determine whether the general structure of IAC’s compensation policies and programs and the administration of these programs pose any material risks to IAC. The findings of any risk assessment are discussed with the Compensation and Human Resources Committee and, where appropriate, IAC’s board of directors. Based upon these assessments, IAC believes that its compensation policies and programs do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on IAC.

In addition, an overall review of risks is inherent in the consideration by IAC’s board of directors of IAC’s long-term strategies and in the transactions and other matters presented to the board, including significant capital expenditures, acquisitions and divestitures and financial matters. The role of IAC’s board of directors in risk oversight of IAC is consistent with IAC’s leadership structure, with IAC’s Chairman and Senior Executive, Chief Executive Officer and other members of IAC senior management having responsibility for assessing and managing IAC’s risk exposure, and IAC’s board of directors and its committees providing oversight in connection with these efforts.

Stock Ownership Policy. In early 2022, IAC’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee adopted a stock ownership policy that covers members of IAC’s board of directors and executive officers. The policy provides for a minimum IAC ownership target that each non-employee director, as well as IAC’s Chairman and Senior Executive, Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers of IAC, is expected to accumulate and hold. Under the policy, all non-employee directors are expected to hold the lesser of a number of shares of IAC common stock with a value of at least five times their annual cash retainer (rounded down to the nearest 100 shares) and 12,400 shares of IAC common stock. For ownership target levels applicable to IAC’s Chairman and Senior Executive, Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers of IAC, see Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Stock Ownership Policy.

Hedging Policies and Practices. IAC’s policy on securities trading provides that no director, officer or employee of IAC and its businesses may engage in transactions in publicly traded options, such as puts, calls and other derivative securities, relating to securities of IAC and/or any publicly traded subsidiary of IAC, or engage in short sales with respect to securities of IAC and/or its publicly traded subsidiaries. This prohibition extends to any and all forms of hedging and monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts (among others).

Director Independence. Under the Marketplace Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (the “Marketplace Rules”), IAC’s board of directors has a responsibility to make an affirmative determination that those members of the board who serve as independent directors do not have any relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In connection with the independence determinations described below, in February 2021 and February 2022, IAC’s board of directors reviewed information regarding transactions, relationships and arrangements relevant

TABLE OF CONTENTS

to independence, including those required by the Marketplace Rules. This information is obtained from director responses to questionnaires circulated by IAC management, as well as from IAC records and publicly available information. Following these determinations, IAC management monitors those transactions, relationships and arrangements that were relevant to such determinations, as well as periodically solicits updated information potentially relevant to independence from internal personnel and directors, to determine whether there have been any developments that could potentially have an adverse impact on prior independence determinations.

In February 2021 and February 2022, IAC’s board of directors determined that each of Messrs. Eisner, Lourd, Moore, Rosenblatt, Spoon and Zannino and Mses. Clinton and Hammer satisfied the director independence requirements set forth in the Marketplace Rules, and that the members of the Audit and Compensation and Human Resources Committees also satisfied separate independence requirements under the standard imposed by applicable SEC rules and the Marketplace Rules for audit committee and compensation committee members.

Of the remaining incumbent directors in the case of both determinations, Messrs. Diller, Kaufman and Levin are executive officers of IAC and Mr. von Furstenberg is Mr. Diller’s stepson. Given these relationships, none of these directors is independent.

Director Nominations. The Nominating Committee identifies, reviews and evaluates individuals qualified to become members of IAC’s board of directors and recommends candidates to IAC’s board of directors. While there are no specific requirements for eligibility to serve as a director of IAC, in evaluating candidates, the Nominating Committee will consider (regardless of how the candidate was identified or recommended) whether the professional and personal ethics and values of the candidate are consistent with those of IAC, whether the candidate’s experience and expertise would be beneficial to IAC’s board of directors, whether the candidate is willing and able to devote the necessary time and energy to the work of IAC’s board of directors and whether the candidate is prepared and qualified to represent the best interests of IAC’s stockholders. While IAC’s board of directors does not have a formal diversity policy, the Nominating Committee also considers the overall diversity of the experiences, characteristics, attributes, skills and backgrounds of candidates relative to those of other members of IAC’s board of directors and those represented by IAC’s board of directors as a whole to ensure that the board has the right mix of skills, expertise and background. As contemplated by the board diversity requirements set forth in the Marketplace Rules, certain gender and demographic information for IAC’s board of directors is set forth in the following matrix:

IAC’s board of directors does not have a formal policy regarding the consideration of director nominees recommended by stockholders, as to date, IAC has not received any such recommendations.

Stockholders who wish to make such a recommendation should send the recommendation to IAC/InterActiveCorp, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, Attention: Corporate Secretary. The envelope must contain a clear notation that the enclosed letter is a “Director Nominee Recommendation.” The letter must identify the author as an IAC stockholder, provide a brief summary of the candidate’s qualifications and history, together with an indication that the recommended individual would be willing to serve (if elected), and must be accompanied by evidence of the sender’s IAC stock ownership. Any director recommendations will be reviewed by IAC’s Corporate Secretary and the Chairman and Senior Executive, and if deemed appropriate, forwarded to the Nominating Committee for further review.

Communications with IAC’s Board of Directors. Stockholders who wish to communicate with IAC’s board of directors or a particular director may send any such communication to IAC/InterActiveCorp, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

PROPOSAL 2 — ADVISORY SAY ON PAY PROPOSAL

As required pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), IAC is seeking an advisory vote from its stockholders to approve the compensation of IAC’s named executives for 2021. This proposal is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather IAC’s overall compensation program and policies relating to its named executives.

As described in detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, IAC’s executive officer compensation program is designed to provide the level of compensation necessary to attract, retain, motivate and reward talented and experienced executives and to motivate them to achieve short-term and long-term goals, thereby enhancing stockholder value and creating a successful company.

IAC believes that its executive officer compensation program, with its balance of short-term and long-term incentives, rewards sustained performance that is aligned with the long-term interests of IAC stockholders. Accordingly, IAC believes that the compensation paid to its named executives in 2021 was fair and appropriate and are asking IAC stockholders to vote FOR the adoption of the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that IAC stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of IAC’s named executives for 2021, as disclosed in this proxy statement, pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s compensation disclosure rules, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Executive Compensation tables and the related narrative discussion.”

The approval, on an advisory basis, of the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the shares of IAC capital stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the matter and voting together as a single class. The vote is advisory in nature and therefore not binding on IAC or its board of directors. However, IAC’s board of directors and the Compensation and Human Resources Committee value the opinions of all IAC stockholders and will consider the outcome of this vote when making future compensation decisions for its named executives.

At IAC’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, IAC stockholders voted on an advisory vote to recommend the frequency at which IAC should present its stockholders with the opportunity to participate in an advisory say on pay vote on IAC’s executive compensation. IAC stockholders voted on whether the say on pay votes should be held every one, two or three years, with IAC’s board of directors recommending a triennial vote. Of the shares of IAC capital stock voted in 2021 on that frequency proposal, a majority were voted in favor of holding future say on pay votes on a triennial basis, consistent with the recommendation of IAC’s board of directors. However, after consideration of the number of votes for holding an annual say on pay vote and other factors (including feedback from stockholders received during stockholder engagement), IAC determined to hold say on pay votes annually. The advisory vote on the frequency of say on pay votes is required to occur at least every six years and is next expected to occur during or before 2027.

IAC’s board of directors recommends a vote FOR the Advisory Say on Pay Proposal.

AUDIT COMMITTEE MATTERS

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee functions pursuant to a written charter adopted by IAC’s board of directors, the most recent version of which is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement. The Audit Committee charter governs the operations of the Audit Committee and sets forth its responsibilities, which include providing assistance to IAC’s board of directors with the monitoring of: (i) the integrity of IAC’s financial statements, (ii) the effectiveness of IAC’s internal control over financial reporting, (iii) the qualifications and independence of IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm, (iv) the performance of IAC’s internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm, (v) IAC’s risk assessment and risk management policies as they relate to financial, cybersecurity and other risk exposures, including risks relating to workplace conduct, and (vi) the compliance by IAC with legal and regulatory requirements. It is not the duty of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that IAC’s financial statements and disclosures are complete, accurate and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and applicable rules and regulations. IAC management is responsible for IAC’s financial reporting process, including systems of internal control over financial reporting. The independent registered public accountants are responsible for performing an independent audit of IAC’s consolidated financial statements and the effectiveness of IAC’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), and to issue a report thereon. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to engage the independent auditor and otherwise to monitor and oversee these processes.

In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements of IAC included in IAC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 with IAC’s management and Ernst & Young LLP, IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm.

The Audit Committee has discussed with Ernst & Young the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC. In addition, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Ernst & Young’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Ernst & Young its independence from IAC and its management.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to IAC’s board of directors that the audited consolidated financial statements of IAC be included in IAC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for filing with the SEC.

Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee has a policy governing the pre-approval of all audit and permitted non-audit services performed by IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm in order to ensure that the provision of these services does not impair such firm’s independence from IAC and its management. Unless a type of service to be provided by IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm has received general pre-approval, it requires specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services in excess of pre-approved cost levels also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. In all pre-approval instances, the Audit Committee considers whether such services are consistent with SEC rules regarding auditor independence.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

All tax services require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. In addition, the Audit Committee has designated specific services that have the pre-approval of the Audit Committee (each of which is subject to pre-approved cost levels) and has classified these pre-approved services into one of three categories: Audit, Audit-Related and All Other (excluding Tax). The term of any pre-approval is twelve months from the date of the pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. The Audit Committee reviews the list of pre-approved services from time to time and will revise it as and if appropriate. Pre-approved fee levels for all services to be provided by IAC’s independent registered public accounting firm are established periodically from time to time by the Audit Committee.

Pursuant to the pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee may delegate its authority to grant pre-approvals to one or more of its members and has currently delegated this authority to its Chairperson. The decisions of the Chairperson (or any other member(s) to whom such authority may be delegated) to grant pre-approvals are presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee may not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services to IAC management.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Philosophy and Objectives

Overview. The executive officers whose compensation is discussed in this compensation discussion and analysis (the “CD&A”), and to whom IAC refers to as its named executive officers in this CD&A (the “NEOs”), are:

•

Barry Diller, Chairman and Senior Executive;

•

Joseph Levin, Chief Executive Officer;

•

Glenn H. Schiffman, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (through August 6, 2021);

•

Mark Stein, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer; and

•

Kendall Handler, Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer.

IAC’s executive compensation program is designed to increase long-term stockholder value by attracting, retaining, motivating and rewarding leaders with the competence, character, experience and ambition necessary to enable IAC to meet its growth objectives.

Although IAC is a publicly traded company, it attempts to foster an entrepreneurial culture, and attract and retain senior executives with entrepreneurial backgrounds, attitudes and aspirations. Accordingly, when attempting to recruit and retain executive officers, as well as other executives who may become executive officers at a later time, IAC competes not only with other public companies, but also with earlier stage companies, companies funded by private equity and venture capital and other professional firms. IAC structures its executive compensation program so that it can compete in this varied marketplace for talent, with an emphasis on variable, contingent compensation and long-term equity ownership.

While IAC considers competitive market data in establishing broad compensation policies and practices and may periodically benchmark the compensation associated with particular executive positions, it does not definitively rely on competitive market data or other benchmarking information in establishing executive compensation levels or structures. IAC makes decisions based on a host of factors particular to a given executive’s situation, including its firsthand experience with competition for recruiting executives and its understanding of the current environment, and believes that over-reliance on survey data (or a benchmarking approach) is too rigid for the dynamic and fast changing marketplace for talent in which IAC competes.

Similarly, IAC believes that arithmetic approaches to measuring and rewarding short-term performance often fail to adequately take into account the multiple factors that contribute to success at the individual

TABLE OF CONTENTS

executive and business level. In any given fiscal year, IAC may have multiple objectives, and these objectives (and their relative importance) often change as competitive and strategic landscapes shift. Accordingly, IAC has historically avoided the use of strict formulas in its annual bonus program, believing that they often over-compensate or under-compensate a given performance level. IAC instead relies primarily on an approach that, while based on clear objectives, is not formulaic and allows for the exercise of discretion by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee in setting final bonus amounts.

In addition, IAC is of the view that long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards aligns the interests of executives with those of its stockholders. To further this important goal, equity awards play a prominent role in IAC’s overall executive compensation program. IAC has changed the form of its equity awards periodically over the years. While IAC had used non-qualified stock options as the predominant equity incentive vehicle for its executive officers for many years, in 2019, IAC introduced performance-based restricted stock unit (“PSU”) awards for its executive officers. And, in 2020, IAC shifted to long-term, cliff-vesting restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards and, in the case of Mr. Levin only, a performance-based restricted stock award. IAC made the change to full value awards to reduce the dilutive impact of equity awards granted to its executive officers and strengthen the durability of retention (relative to stock options), while still aligning the interests of its executives with those of its stockholders. IAC will continue to evaluate the appropriate form of equity-based incentive awards as market conditions evolve.

IAC believes that its executive compensation program puts the substantial majority of compensation at risk, rewards both individual executive officer and corporate performance in a targeted fashion, pays amounts appropriate to attract and retain those key individuals necessary to grow IAC and aligns the interests of its key executive officers with those of its stockholders. IAC continuously evaluates its executive compensation program and makes changes as it deems appropriate.

Annual Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation. At its 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, IAC provided its stockholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote to approve the compensation of its named executive officers for 2020 (a “say-on-pay” proposal). At that meeting, approximately 64% of the shares voted were cast in support of the say-on-pay proposal. While this represented majority support for the say-on-pay proposal, the results were below the level of stockholder support IAC had received in prior years. During 2021, IAC reached out to its top stockholders, and had discussions with stockholders holding an aggregate of approximately 50% of its outstanding common stock, to discuss topics, including executive compensation. In these discussions, IAC discussed the compensation paid to its executive officers, with particular focus on the compensation package for Mr. Levin, including the long-term, cliff-based performance-based restricted stock award granted to him in 2020, and heard specific concerns regarding this award. IAC reviewed the terms of this award, emphasizing that: (i) the award was long-term in nature, providing for vesting ten (10) years from the grant date, (ii) the performance element of such award provided strong alignment with stockholder interests in that it required an increase in stockholder value before any shares would vest, (iii) Mr. Levin will share (by forfeiting shares otherwise earned) with IAC employees a portion of the value that he realizes (if and to the extent that the award vests), with Mr. Levin sharing a greater proportion of the value of the award at higher levels of IAC stock price achievement, and (iv) it believes that the long-term partnership between Mr. Diller and Mr. Levin is in the best interests of our stockholders and the long-term prospects of IAC. IAC continues to believe that Mr. Levin’s compensation package has been structured in the best interests of IAC for, among other reasons, the foregoing. In addition, Mr. Levin did not receive a new equity award in 2021, as the intent of the award in 2020 was to provide for a multi-year grant opportunity. IAC regularly evaluates and refines its executive compensation program and will continue to do so, taking into account evolving best practices and stockholder feedback, including the results of future say on pay votes.

Advisory Vote on Frequency of Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation. At the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, IAC stockholders voted on an advisory basis on their preference for the frequency of future say-on-pay votes (every one, two or three years). IAC’s board of directors recommended a triennial say-on-pay vote. A majority of the shares voted were cast in favor of holding future say-on-pay votes on a triennial basis, consistent with the recommendation of IAC’s board of directors. However, after consideration of the number of votes for holding an annual say-on-pay vote and other factors (including feedback from stockholders received during stockholder engagement), IAC determined to hold say-on-pay votes on an annual basis. The advisory vote on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes is required to occur at least once every six years and will occur next during or before 2027.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Compensation Decisions — Roles and Responsibilities

The Compensation and Human Resources Committee of IAC’s board of directors (for purposes of this CD&A, the “Committee”) has primary responsibility for establishing the compensation of our executive officers. All compensation decisions referred to throughout this CD&A have been made by the Committee at meetings, based (in part) on recommendations from Messrs. Diller and Levin, as well as on such additional information deemed pertinent by the Committee in its discretion (as described below). At the times that decisions were made regarding the executive compensation for 2021 discussed in this proxy statement, the Committee consisted of Ms. Hammer (Chair) and Mr. Rosenblatt. The Committee currently consists of Mr. Rosenblatt (Chair) and Mr. Zannino.

Our executive officers participate in structuring IAC-wide compensation programs and in establishing appropriate bonus and equity pools. In late 2021, Messrs. Diller and Levin met with the Committee and discussed their views of corporate and individual executive officer performance for 2021 for Mr. Stein and Ms. Handler, and their recommendations for annual bonuses for these executive officers. Mr. Diller also separately discussed Mr. Levin’s performance, and recommended a bonus for him, as well as discussed his views on his own performance, with the Committee. Following these discussions, the Committee met in an executive session to review and discuss these recommendations. After consideration of these recommendations, the Committee ultimately determined the annual bonus for each executive officer. In establishing a given executive officer’s compensation package, each individual component was evaluated independently and in relation to the package as a whole. Prior earning histories and outstanding long-term compensation arrangements were also reviewed and taken into account. However, the Committee does not believe in any formulaic relationship or targeted allocation between these elements. Instead, each individual executive officer’s situation was evaluated on a case- by-case basis (and is each year), considering a variety of relevant factors at the time.

From time to time, the Committee will solicit the advice of consulting firms and engage legal counsel. The Committee has also determined to receive, on at least an annual basis, a live presentation about recent developments and best practices concerning executive compensation, the first of which occurred in early 2022. IAC may also solicit survey or peer compensation data from various consulting firms and review this information with the Committee.

In addition, when structuring and determining Mr. Diller’s and Mr. Levin’s compensation, the Committee will retain a separate independent compensation consultant, chosen after considering such factors that the Committee reasonably determines to be appropriate and as may be required by 5605(d)(3) of the Marketplace Rules. From time to time, the Committee will direct such consultant to furnish any reports and/or peer studies as may be required by the Committee.

In early 2021, IAC engaged Compensation Advisory Partners (“CAP”) to provide IAC with comparative market data in connection with its own analysis of its equity compensation practices. This information was reviewed with the Committee, but CAP did not have any role in determining or recommending the amount or form of executive compensation for 2021.

In connection with the IAC’s annual compensation review in late 2021, the Committee retained Compensia, Inc. (“Compensia”), an independent compensation consulting firm. Compensia compiled data from proxy statements and other SEC filings of peer companies and industry specific compensation survey data regarding compensation for executive officer positions, where available, to assist the Committee in its general understanding of current compensation practices. Compensia also provides the Committee, on at least an annual basis, with input on recent developments and best practices, emerging trends and regulatory issues concerning executive compensation.

Based on the consideration of the various independence factors specified in applicable SEC and Marketplace Rules, and a review of these factors for 2021, the Committee determined that its relationship with Compensia and the work of Compensia on behalf of the Committee does not raise any conflict of interest. The Committee will review its compensation consultant’s independence annually.

Compensation Elements

Our compensation packages for our executive officers primarily consist of salary, annual bonuses, equity awards and, in certain instances, perquisites and other benefits.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Salary. IAC typically negotiates a new executive officer’s starting salary upon arrival, based on factors such as prior compensation levels for the particular position within IAC, IAC’s New York City location, salary levels of other executive officers within IAC and salary levels available to the individual in alternative opportunities. Salaries may be increased based on a number of factors, including the assumption of additional responsibilities and other factors that demonstrate an executive officer’s increased value to IAC and review of competitive market data. Ms. Handler’s salary was increased upon her promotion to Senior Vice President and General Counsel in January 2021. No other executive officer’s salary was adjusted during 2021.

Annual Bonuses

General. IAC’s bonus program is designed to reward performance on an annual basis and annual bonuses are discretionary. Executive officer bonuses tend to be highly variable from year-to-year depending on IAC’s performance and, in certain circumstances, individual executive officer performance. Because of the variable nature of the annual bonus program, and because in any given year bonuses can make up the significant majority of an executive officer’s cash compensation, IAC believes its executive officer annual bonus program provides a strong incentive for its executive officers to achieve annual corporate, strategic and individual performance objectives. Bonuses for the 2021 fiscal year were paid in late December 2021.

In making its determinations regarding individual annual bonus amounts, the Committee considers a variety of factors, such as growth in profitability or achievement of strategic objectives by IAC and, to a lesser extent, an individual’s performance and contribution to IAC. The Committee does not quantify the weight given to any specific factor or otherwise follow a formulaic calculation. Rather, the Committee engages in an overall assessment of appropriate bonus levels based on a subjective evaluation of all of the criteria it determines to be relevant.

2021 Bonuses. For 2021, in determining bonus amounts, the Committee considered a variety of factors specific to IAC’s overall performance, including:

•

Strategic initiatives. During 2021, IAC:

•

raised third party capital at Vimeo and consummated the Vimeo Spin-Off, which gave IAC stockholders direct ownership of Vimeo, while enabling management to focus on other assets within the IAC portfolio;

•

acquired, through its Dotdash business, Meredith’s National Media Group, owner of brands such as PEOPLE, Better Homes & Gardens, FOOD & WINE, Allrecipes, Southern Living, InStyle and REAL SIMPLE, in a $2.7 billion all cash transaction, creating one of the largest digital and print publishers in the United States (and now known as “Dotdash Meredith”);

•

published its first Social Responsibility Report; and

•

continued to reinvest in each of IAC’s businesses to drive growth over the long-term.

•

Financings and Cash Position. During 2021, IAC (through its subsidiary, Dotdash Meredith) raised $1.6 billion of senior secured debt, the proceeds of which, along with cash on hand, were used to fund the acquisition of Meredith’s National Media Group. As a result of these and other actions, IAC ended the year with $2.1 billion of cash and cash equivalents and marketable equity securities on a consolidated basis, of which $428.1 million and $233.4 million was held by Angi Inc. and Dotdash Meredith, respectively. IAC believes this cash balance positions it for further long-term growth as it continues to invest in its businesses and identify new opportunities for expansion; and

•

Operating Results. Revenue increased approximately 34% over the prior year, while Adjusted EBITDA increased approximately 2% over the prior year, which reflects $73 million of transaction-related items associated with the acquisition of Meredith’s National Media Group.

While the factors noted above were the primary ones considered in determining bonus amounts, the Committee also considered each executive officer’s role and responsibilities, the relative contributions made by each executive officer during the year, the relative size of the bonus amounts paid to other executive officers and the recommendations of the Chairman and Senior Executive and the Chief Executive Officer (other than for their own bonuses). In addition, the Committee considered achievements in 2021 as compared

TABLE OF CONTENTS

to achievements and bonus levels in prior years. With respect to 2021 bonuses for our NEOs, the Committee also considered the following with respect to: (i) Mr. Diller, his continued role in providing strategic direction for IAC overall and his active involvement with MGM Resorts International (“MGM”) through his service on the board of directors of MGM, (ii) Mr. Levin, his continuing focus on managing IAC’s day-to-day business operations and participating in the development of strategic initiatives for IAC, as well as his active involvement with businesses in which IAC has an interest through his board service at MGM and Turo, (iii) Mr. Stein, his role in the successful completion of the Meredith National Media Group acquisition, his overall leadership and his assumption of additional responsibilities through the Chief Financial Officer transition and his participation in the oversight of, and development of strategy for, several of IAC’s businesses, and (vi) Ms. Handler, her role in the Vimeo capital raise, as well as the successful completion of the Vimeo Spin-Off, her role in the successful completion of the Meredith National Media Group acquisition, her overall leadership and her assumption of additional responsibilities through the Chief Financial Officer transition, as well as her ongoing oversight of IAC’s legal, human resources, regulatory and compliance activities. Due to his departure during the year, Mr. Schiffman did not receive a bonus for 2021.

Long-Term Incentives

Overview. Due to IAC’s entrepreneurial philosophy, it believes that providing a meaningful equity stake in its business is essential to create compensation opportunities that can compete, on a risk-adjusted basis, with the wide range of entrepreneurial employment alternatives in the competitive market. In addition, IAC believes that ownership shapes behavior, and that by providing compensation in the form of equity awards, it aligns executive officer incentives with stockholder interests in a manner that drives superior performance over time.

In determining the size of equity awards for an executive officer for any given period, the Committee reviews and evaluates on an individual-by-individual basis the amount of outstanding unvested and/or unexercised equity awards, as well as previously earned or exercised equity awards. In setting award levels, the predominant factors considered by the Committee are providing the executive officer with effective retention incentives, appropriate reward for past performance and incentives for strong future performance and competitive conditions. The annual corporate performance factors relevant to setting bonus amounts, while considered, are generally less relevant in determining the type and level of equity awards, as equity awards tend to be more forward-looking, and are a longer-term retention and reward instrument relative to annual bonuses. In 2020, most of our executive officers received RSUs that cliff vest in five years from the grant date, and Mr. Levin received a performance-based restricted stock award, which vests ten years from the grant date. These awards have a longer vesting period relative to typical market practice (generally vesting annually or quarterly over three to four years), and IAC believes these terms enhance retention. Due to the cliff-vest nature and other parameters of the equity awards granted in 2020, our executives were not expected to, and did not (except as noted below), receive any equity awards in 2021.

IAC’s practice has been to schedule Committee meetings at which equity awards are to be granted well in advance of (and without regard to) the timing of the release of earnings or other material information.

Mr. Diller — Amendment to 2020 Award. As previously disclosed, in November 2020, the Committee granted, and Mr. Diller elected to receive, a five-year RSU award scheduled to vest in 2025 with a grant date value of $31.5 million (the “RSU award”). At the time of its grant, consistent with five-year RSU awards offered to other employees, Mr. Diller’s RSU award was subject to ratable vesting (based on completed years of service from the grant date) in the case of an involuntary termination of employment or upon a qualifying retirement following the second anniversary of the grant date. As part of IAC’s ongoing evaluation and refinement of its executive compensation program, in early 2022, the Committee modified Mr. Diller’s RSU award, such that in the event of Mr. Diller’s qualifying retirement (as defined in the award agreement) occurring on or before November 4, 2025, all of the units subject to the RSU award will be forfeited and will not vest. The Committee believes that the RSU award granted to Mr. Diller pursuant to the RSU program and as modified is appropriate compensation for Mr. Diller’s continued services and properly aligns his incentives with those of IAC’s stockholders. As discussed with the Committee at the time of grant, Mr. Diller has no intention of retiring from active service with IAC.

2021 Equity Award. In December 2021, in connection with Ms. Handler’s promotion to Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer (and to supplement the five-year RSU award that she received in November 2020 in anticipation of her appointment as General Counsel), the Committee granted her the opportunity to receive either: (i) RSUs that would vest in one year or (ii) RSUs that would cliff vest in five years, with the grant date value of the five-year award equal to nine times the grant date value of the one-year award. This award had the same terms as awards granted to executives in 2020. Ms. Handler elected to receive the five-year RSU award with a value of $2,250,000, with vesting tied to the same vesting schedule as her earlier November 2020 award. Consistent with the five-year RSU awards offered to other employees in 2020, Ms. Handler’s RSU award is subject to ratable vesting (based on completed years of service from the grant date) in the case of an involuntary termination or upon a qualifying retirement following the second anniversary of the grant date.

The Committee believes that the RSU awards granted pursuant to the RSU program properly align the incentives of IAC’s executive officers with those of its stockholders.

Vimeo Spin-Off Separation Adjustments. In connection with the Vimeo Spin-Off, the Committee made various determinations about how IAC’s then existing equity awards would be treated in the Vimeo Spin-Off. Adjustments for IAC equity awards were as follows:

•

all outstanding IAC stock option awards (all of which were vested) were converted into an option to purchase IAC common stock and an option to purchase Vimeo common stock, based on the relative values of the companies at the time of the transaction, with appropriate adjustments to the exercise prices and number of shares subject to the options to maintain pre- and post-transaction values; and

•

all IAC RSU awards that were unvested upon completion of the transaction remained IAC RSUs following the transaction, with their original remaining vesting schedules and with appropriate adjustments to maintain pre- and post-transaction values.

In determining these adjustments, the Committee concluded that equity awards earned prior to the Vimeo Spin-Off should be split into equity awards in both post-Vimeo Spin-Off companies, as this was the reasonable expectation of IAC’s executive officers and other employees during the relevant service period.

Treatment of Mr. Levin’s IAC Restricted Stock Award in the Vimeo Spin-Off. On November 5, 2020, Mr. Levin was granted an IAC restricted stock award consisting of 3,000,000 shares of IAC common stock. Pursuant to the terms of his restricted stock award agreement, in the Vimeo Spin-Off, Mr. Levin received, in respect of each share of IAC restricted common stock that he held, a number of shares of Vimeo common stock based on the Vimeo Spin-Off exchange ratio and retained all of his shares of IAC restricted common stock.

In addition, in connection with the Vimeo Spin-Off:

•

the IAC stock price performance goals applicable to the award were equitably adjusted to reflect the impact of the Vimeo Spin-Off, including giving effect to the related exchange ratio; and

•

Vimeo and Mr. Levin entered into a restricted stock agreement covering the shares of restricted Vimeo common stock received by Mr. Levin in the Vimeo Spin-Off, with the vesting of such shares generally subject to the same requirements as are applicable to the IAC restricted stock award, including Vimeo stock price performance goals that reflect the impact of the Vimeo Spin-Off, including giving effect to the Vimeo Spin-Off exchange ratio.

2021 Employment Related Arrangements

New Employment Agreement for Ms. Handler. Effective January 1, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), IAC and Ms. Handler entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Ms. Handler became our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary. The Employment Agreement has a scheduled term of one year from the Effective Date and provides for automatic renewals for successive one-year terms absent written notice from IAC or Ms. Handler 90 days prior to the expiration of the then current term.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Employment Agreement provides that Ms. Handler will be eligible to receive an annual base salary (currently $500,000), discretionary annual cash bonuses, equity awards and such other employee benefits as may be reasonably determined by the Committee. In connection with her promotion, Ms. Handler was granted RSU award in November 2020 with a grant date value of $4 million, all of which vests on the fifth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to Ms. Handler’s continued employment with IAC; provided, that the award is subject to ratable vesting (based on completed years of service from the grant date) in the case of an involuntary termination or upon a qualifying retirement following the second anniversary of the grant date.

Upon certain involuntary terminations of Ms. Handler’s employment and subject to the execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in favor of IAC and compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth below: (i) IAC will continue to pay Ms. Handler her annual base salary for one year following such termination, (ii) she will receive any bonus payment that has been awarded to her, but remains unpaid at the time of such termination, (iii) all IAC equity awards (including any cliff vesting awards, which will be pro-rated as though such awards had an annual vesting schedule) held by Ms. Handler that would have otherwise vested during the one-year period following such termination will vest as of the date of such termination and (iv) all vested and outstanding IAC and Vimeo stock options held by Ms. Handler as of the date of such termination will remain outstanding and exercisable for 18 months from the date of such termination.

Pursuant to her Employment Agreement, Ms. Handler is bound by a covenant not to compete with IAC’s businesses during the term of her employment and for 12 months after certain involuntary terminations of employment and covenants not to solicit IAC employees or business partners during the term of her employment and for 18 months after any such a termination. In addition, Ms. Handler has agreed not to use or disclose any confidential information of IAC or its affiliates.

Separation Agreement for Mr. Schiffman. On June 8, 2021, IAC and Mr. Schiffman entered into a separation agreement (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Schiffman agreed to continue in his then current position as IAC’s Chief Finanical Officer through August 6, 2021, and would continue to earn his salary and participate in IAC’s benefit programs through such date. The Separation Agreement also provided, consistent with Mr. Schiffman’s pre-existing employment agreement, that his IAC, Match Group, Inc. (“Match Group”) and Vimeo stock options (all of which were vested) would remain exercisable until the earlier of: (i) the expiration of the term of the applicable options and (ii) 90 days following the earlier of: (A) his ceasing to serve as a member of the board of directors of Angi Inc. and (B) Angi Inc. ceasing to be a majority-owned subsidiary of IAC (unless more favorable treatment is provided for stock options held by members of the board of directors of Angi Inc. in their capacity as such).

Stock Ownership Policy

Historically, IAC did not have a formal stock ownership or holding requirement for its executive officers, as they have generally held a significant portion of their stock awards (net of tax withholdings) well beyond the relevant exercise and/or vesting dates. However, in early 2022, to further align the interests of IAC’s executive officers and stockholders, the Committee adopted a formal stock ownership policy (the “Stock Ownership Policy”) for IAC’s executive officers (the “Designated Executives”). The policy provides for a minimum stockholding target (the “Stock Targets”) that each Designated Executive is expected to accumulate and hold. Under the policy, the Stock Targets are:

•

the lesser of 10x base salary or 49,600 shares for the Chairman and Senior Executive;

•

the lesser of 10x base salary or 99,300 shares for the Chief Executive Officer; and

•

the lesser of 3x base salary or 17,900 shares for each other Designated Executive.

The Stock Targets are established on the date an executive officer is first appointed as a Designated Executive (including upon the adoption of the Stock Ownership Policy) and annually thereafter on June 30 (a “Measurement Date”), based on the average closing price of IAC common stock for the 30 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the applicable Measurement Date. Designated Executives will have five years from the later of the effective date of the Stock Ownership Policy and the date of hire into an eligible position to achieve the Stock Targets for their respective levels.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Under the Stock Ownership Policy, shares owned outright or in a trust or other arrangement under the Designated Executive’s direction, such as shares owned by immediate family members (as defined in IAC’s Securities Trading Policy), so long as the Designated Executive does not disclaim beneficial ownership for SEC reporting purposes, count toward compliance with the Stock Target requirements, but unexercised stock options and unvested RSUs, PSUs and restricted stock do not count toward compliance with the Stock Target requirements.

The Stock Ownership Policy also includes stock retention provisions. If a Designated Executive has not met their Stock Target requirements on the most recent Measurement Date, they are required to retain 25% of the net shares received from any exercised stock options or any vested RSU awards, PSU awards or restricted stock awards until a subsequent Measurement Date on which they have met their Stock Target requirements (the “Holdback”). The Committee has discretion to increase the Holdback percentage if an executive’s progress toward their Stock Target requirements is not satisfactory. At the time of adoption of the Stock Ownership Policy, the following Stock Target requirements were in effect for IAC’s NEOs:

Change of Control

IAC equity awards granted to senior executive officers generally include a so-called “double-trigger” change of control provision, which provides for the acceleration of the vesting of outstanding equity awards in connection with a change of control of IAC only when an award holder suffers an involuntary termination of employment during the two-year period following such change of control. The Committee believes that providing for the acceleration of the vesting of equity awards after an involuntary termination of employment will assist in the retention of IAC’s executive officers through a change of control transaction. However, Mr. Levin’s 2020 IAC restricted stock award provides for full vesting upon the consummation of a change of control of the Company. IAC’s board of directors and the Committee believed that this treatment was appropriate given the long-term nature of the arrangement and the voting agreement between Mr. Diller and Mr. Levin, which was an essential element of the arrangements for Mr. Levin. For purposes of this discussion and the discussion below under the heading “Severance,” we use the term “involuntary termination” to mean both a termination of an executive officer’s employment by IAC without “cause” and a resignation by an executive officer for “good reason” or similar construct.

Severance

IAC generally provides its executive officers with some amount of salary continuation and the acceleration of the vesting of certain equity awards in the event of an involuntary termination of employment. Because IAC tends to promote its executive officers from within, after competence and commitment have generally been established, IAC believes that the likelihood of the vesting of equity awards being accelerated is typically low, and yet IAC believes that by providing this benefit, it increases the retentive effect of its equity program, which serves as IAC’s most important retention incentive. IAC generally does not provide for the acceleration of the vesting of equity awards in the event an executive officer voluntarily resigns from IAC.

Other Compensation

General. IAC provides Messrs. Diller and Levin with various non-cash benefits as part of their overall compensation packages. Under certain limited circumstances, other executive officers have also received non-cash benefits. The value of these benefits is calculated under appropriate rules and is taken into account as a component of compensation when establishing overall compensation levels. The value of all non-cash benefits is reported under the All Other Compensation column in the Summary Compensation Table pursuant to applicable SEC rules. IAC’s executive officers do not participate in any deferred compensation or

TABLE OF CONTENTS

retirement programs other than IAC’s 401(k) plan. IAC does not generally provide tax gross-ups for its executive officers; provided, however, that IAC has provided tax gross-ups related to certain relocation benefits provided to executive officers in the past from time to time. Other than those described specifically below, IAC’s executive officers do not partake in any benefit programs, or receive any significant perquisites, distinct from other IAC employees.

Mr. Diller. Pursuant to IAC policy, Mr. Diller is required to travel, both for business and personal purposes, on corporate aircraft. In addition to serving general security interests, this means of travel permits him to travel non-stop and without delay, to remain in contact with IAC while he is traveling, to change his plans quickly in the event IAC business requires and to conduct confidential IAC business while flying, be it telephonically, by e-mail or in person. These interests are similarly furthered on both business and personal flights, as Mr. Diller typically provides his services to IAC while traveling in either case. Nonetheless, the incremental cost to IAC of his travel for personal purposes is reflected as compensation to Mr. Diller from IAC, and is taken into account in establishing his overall compensation package.

Additionally, IAC provides Mr. Diller with access to certain automobiles for business and personal use. IAC also provides certain IAC-owned office space and IT equipment for use by certain individuals who work for Mr. Diller personally. These uses are valued by IAC at their incremental cost to IAC or, in the case of the use of office space (where there is no discernible incremental cost), at the cost used for internal allocations of office space for corporate purposes.

Mr. Levin. Pursuant to IAC policy, Mr. Levin is encouraged to travel, both for business and personal purposes, on corporate aircraft for the same reasons as set forth above for Mr. Diller. The incremental cost to IAC of his travel for personal purposes is reflected as compensation to Mr. Levin from IAC, and is taken into account in establishing his overall compensation package.

Tax Deductibility

Effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, compensation in excess of $1 million paid to IAC’s current NEOs and certain former named executive officers, will not be deductible by reason of Section 162(m) of the Code unless it qualifies for limited transition relief applicable to certain arrangements in place as of November 2, 2017 (“Grandfathered Arrangements”). The Committee reserves the right to modify Grandfathered Arrangements in a manner that results in the loss of a compensation deduction if it determines that such modifications are consistent with IAC’s best interests.

In addition, the Committee believes that, in establishing the cash and equity incentive compensation plans and arrangements for IAC’s executive officers, the potential deductibility of the compensation payable under those plans and arrangements is just one relevant factor to consider. For that reason, the Committee may deem it appropriate to provide one or more of IAC’s executive officers with the opportunity to earn incentive compensation, whether through cash incentive awards tied to its financial performance or equity incentive awards tied to a given executive officer’s continued service, which may be in excess of the amount deductible by reason of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee believes it is important to maintain cash and equity incentive compensation at the requisite level to attract and retain the individuals essential to IAC’s financial success, even if all or part of that compensation may not be deductible by reason of the Section 162(m) limitation.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

IAC follows Financial Accounting Standard Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“ASC 718”) for its stock-based compensation awards. ASC 718 requires companies to measure the compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on the grant date “fair value” of these awards. This calculation is performed for accounting purposes and reported in the compensation tables below, even though IAC’s executive officers may never realize any value from their awards. ASC Topic 718 also requires companies to recognize the compensation cost of their stock-based awards in their income statements over the period that an employee is required to render service in exchange for the award.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

would serve the interests of IAC. See the discussion regarding airplane travel under the Other Compensation section of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Amounts in the table above for each NEO reflect incremental cost to IAC for personal use of IAC aircraft. We calculate the incremental cost to IAC for personal use based on the average variable operating costs to IAC. In the case of IAC-owned aircraft, variable operating costs include fuel, certain maintenance costs, navigation fees, on-board catering, landing fees, crew travel expenses and other miscellaneous variable costs. The total annual variable costs are divided by the annual number of miles the IAC-owned aircraft flew to derive an average variable cost per mile. This average variable cost per mile is then multiplied by the miles flown for personal use. Incremental costs do not include fixed costs that do not change based on usage, such as pilot salaries, the purchase costs of IAC-owned aircraft, insurance, scheduled maintenance and non-trip related hangar expenses. In the case of aircraft in which IAC has purchased a fractional interest, variable costs are calculated by multiplying the hours flown for personal use by the hourly flight and fuel charges, plus airport arrival and/or departure fees (if applicable), and do not include monthly management fees for such aircraft. In the event a NEO has family members or other guests accompany him on a business or personal trip, such travel (while it does not result in any incremental cost to IAC) results in the imputation of taxable income to the relevant NEO, the amount of which is calculated in accordance with applicable Internal Revenue Service rules.

Represents the total amount of other benefits provided to Mr. Diller, none of which individually exceeded 10% of the total value of all perquisites and personal benefits. The total amount of other benefits provided reflects: (i) lease payments, parking, fuel, maintenance and other costs associated with Mr. Diller’s personal use of two automobiles leased and maintained by IAC, (ii) an allocation (based on square footage) of costs for the use of IAC office space by certain individuals who work for Mr. Diller personally and (iii) an allocation (based on the number of personal computers and communication devices supported by IAC) of costs relating to the use by such individuals of IAC’s information technology technical support and certain communications equipment.

In connection with the Vimeo Spin-Off, each IAC stock option outstanding (all of which were vested) at the time of the Vimeo Spin-Off was split into an IAC stock option and a Vimeo stock option. In addition, in connection with the separation of the businesses within IAC’s former Match Group financial reporting segment from IAC in June 2020 (the “Match Separation”), each IAC stock option outstanding (all of which were vested) at the time of the Match Separation was split into an IAC stock option and a Match Group stock option. These IAC, Vimeo and Match Group stock options otherwise have the same terms and conditions, including exercise periods, as the corresponding vested IAC stock options outstanding immediately prior to the Vimeo Spin-Off and Match Separation, as applicable.

For all of IAC’s NEOs, any value realized upon the exercise of Vimeo and/or Match Group stock options is treated for tax purposes as compensation payable to them in their respective capacities as executive officers of IAC. Accordingly, information regarding Vimeo and Match Group stock options held by IAC’s NEOs as of December 31, 2021 appears below and information regarding exercises of Vimeo and Match Group stock options by such NEOs in 2021 is disclosed under the caption 2021 Option Exercises and Stock Vested.

(a)

Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Levin has agreed to sell, prior to November 5, 2022, at least 50% of the shares of Match Group common stock beneficially owned by him (with the total number of shares beneficially owned by him consisting of any outstanding shares of Match Group common stock held by him and all shares of Match Group common stock underlying Match Group stock options held by Mr. Levin on November 5, 2020); provided¸ however, that if requested by Mr. Levin, IAC has agreed to discuss with Mr. Levin a mutually agreeable extension of the deadline for such sales in light of the relevant circumstances at such time. As of the date of this proxy statement, this obligation has not been satisfied.

(2)

In the case of Messrs. Diller and Stein, represents IAC restricted stock units that cliff vest on November 5, 2025 and February 15, 2025, respectively, subject to continued service through the vesting date, and with partial vesting upon certain terminations of employment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In the case of Mr. Levin, represents an IAC restricted stock award that generally cliff vests on the tenth anniversary of the grant date (November 5, 2020), based on the satisfaction of the IAC stock price targets (as amended to reflect the Vimeo Spin-Off) set forth below and Mr. Levin’s continued employment through the vesting date:

	IAC Stock Price			Number of Shares Vesting
	less than $110.22			0
	$110.22			500,000
	$140.25			2,000,000
	$177.45			2,750,000
	$223.32 or greater			3,000,000

Mr. Levin may request an extension of the measurement period from ten to twelve years and IAC will consider any such request in light of the circumstances.

In addition, Mr. Levin may elect to accelerate the vesting of his IAC restricted stock award on any of the sixth, seventh, eighth or ninth anniversaries of the grant date, in which case, IAC stock price performance will be measured through the applicable anniversary date, and Mr. Levin will receive a pro rata portion of his IAC restricted stock award (based on the number of years that will have then elapsed from the grant date) and any remaining shares will be forfeited. The applicable IAC stock price goals are proportionately lower (which were initially calculated based on IAC stock price growth rates from the grant date and subsequently adjusted in connection with the Vimeo Spin-Off) on the earlier vesting dates. Mr. Levin is not permitted to transfer any shares of IAC common stock acquired pursuant to an early vesting election until the tenth anniversary of the grant date.

Mr. Levin has the right to vote all 3,000,000 shares of his IAC restricted stock prior to vesting, as well as receive ordinary course cash dividends (on a current, unrestricted basis) on the number of shares that would vest on the applicable dividend record date, based on IAC stock price performance through such record date.

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Levin’s IAC restricted stock award, Mr. Levin will share (by forfeiting shares otherwise earned) with IAC employees a portion of the value that he realizes, if and to the extent that the award vests, with Mr. Levin sharing a greater proportion of the value increase at higher levels of IAC stock price achievement.

Also pursuant to the terms of Mr. Levin’s IAC restricted stock award, in connection with the Vimeo Spin-Off, Mr. Levin received 4,870,500 shares of Vimeo restricted common stock (equal to 3,000,000 shares of IAC restricted stock that he held at such time, multiplied by 1.6235 (the Vimeo Spin-Off exchange ratio)), in addition to retaining all 3,000,000 shares of his IAC restricted common stock. Since Mr. Levin’s initial award now consists of two separate restricted stock awards (one IAC and one Vimeo), the total value of such awards was allocated between IAC and Vimeo awards based on the pro-rata value of such awards concurrent with the Vimeo Spin-Off. As a result of this allocation, IAC will recognize $42.1 million less expense over the remaining vesting period for Mr. Levin’s award than it otherwise would have prior to the completion of the Vimeo Spin-Off. As of the date of the Vimeo Spin-Off there was approximately $131.0 million in expense related to Mr. Levin’s IAC restricted stock award to be recognized by IAC over the remaining vesting period of approximately 9.5 years.

In the case of Ms. Handler, represents: (i) 3,443 IAC restricted stock units that vested on February 1, 2022 (the last tranche of an award that vested annually over three years), (ii) 7,748 IAC restricted stock units that vested on February 12, 2022 (one lump sum installment of a three year cliff award), (iii) 27,752 IAC restricted stock units that cliff vest on February 15, 2025, subject to continued service through the vesting date, and with partial vesting upon certain terminations of employment, and (iv) 60,151 IAC restricted stock units that cliff vest on November 30, 2025, subject to continued service through the vesting date, and with partial vesting upon certain terminations of employment.

For a discussion of the treatment of the restricted stock unit and restricted stock awards described above in connection with certain terminations of employment, see Estimated Potential Payments Upon Termination of Change in Control.
