AGREEMENT

1. Lockup.

(a) During the period (the “Lock-Up Period”) beginning at the Effective Time and continuing to and including the earlier of (i) the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), or (ii) the date that the Closing Share Price (as defined below) exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30-trading day period, the Sponsor agrees not to, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of eighty five percent (85%) of any shares of Common Stock held by the Sponsor as of the Effective Time, together with any (i) securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such securities or (ii) securities that are exchangeable or convertible into shares of Common Stock, owned directly by the Sponsor (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the Sponsor has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “Covered Securities”; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, “Covered Securities” will not include an aggregate of fifteen percent (15%) of the shares of Common Stock owned by the Sponsor as of the Effective Time, which may be sold or otherwise transferred by the Sponsor without restriction pursuant to this Agreement). The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the Sponsor from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Covered Securities, even if such Covered Securities would be disposed of by someone other than the Sponsor. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any of the Covered Securities or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Covered Securities. “Closing Share Price” means the dollar volume-weighted average price of IAC Class A Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or securities market on which such security is then traded during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg through its “HP” function (set to weighted average) or, if the foregoing does not apply, the dollar volume-weighted average price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no dollar volume-weighted average price is reported for such security by Bloomberg for such hours, the average of the highest closing bid price and the lowest closing ask price of any of the market makers for such security as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Sponsor may transfer or dispose of its Covered Securities (i) by will, other testamentary document or intestacy, (ii) as a bona fide gift or gifts, including to charitable organizations, or for bona fide estate planning purposes, (iii) to any trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporation or other entity for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned, or an immediate family member of the undersigned (for purposes of this Section 1, “immediate family member” shall mean any relationship by blood, current or former marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin), (iv) in the case of an individual, (x) to any immediate family member or other dependent or (y) to a trust, the beneficiary of which is either a member of one of the individual’s immediate family members or a charitable organization and, in each case, the sole trustee of which is such individual, (v) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (vi) as a pro rata distribution to limited partners, members or stockholders of the Sponsor, (vii) to its Affiliated investment funds or to any other Affiliates of the Sponsor or its Affiliates, (viii) to a nominee or custodian of a person to whom a disposition or transfer would be permissible under clauses (i) through (vii) above, (ix) pursuant to an order or decree of a Governmental Authority, (x) from an employee to IAC or its Subsidiary or parent entities upon death, disability or termination of employment, in each case, of such employee, (xi) pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction, in each case, both approved by the Board of Directors of IAC and made to all holders of the shares involving a Change of Control (as defined below) (including negotiating and entering into an agreement providing for any such transaction), provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Sponsor’s Covered Securities shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section 1, (xii) to IAC (1) pursuant to the exercise of any option to purchase Common Stock granted by IAC pursuant to any employee benefit plans or arrangements (including employee benefit plans or arrangements assumed in connection with the Merger) which are set to expire during the Lock-Up Period, where any Common Stock received by the undersigned upon any such exercise will be subject to the terms of this Section 1, or (2) for the purpose of satisfying any withholding taxes (including estimated taxes) due as a result of the exercise of any option to purchase Common Stock or the vesting of any restricted stock awards granted by IAC pursuant to employee benefit plans or arrangements (including employee benefit plans or arrangements assumed in connection with the Merger) which are set to expire or automatically vest during the Lock-Up Period, where any Common Stock received by the Sponsor upon any such exercise or vesting will be subject to the terms of this Section 1, (xiii) pursuant to transactions to satisfy any U.S. federal, state, or local income tax obligations of the Sponsor (or its direct or indirect owners) arising from a change in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Regulations”) after the date on which the Business Combination Agreement was executed by the parties thereto, and such change prevents such transaction from qualifying as a “reorganization” pursuant to Section 368 of the Code (and such transaction does not qualify for similar tax-free treatment pursuant to any successor or other provision of the Code or Regulations taking into account such changes), or (xiv) with the prior written consent of IAC after the Closing; provided that:

(1) in the case of each transfer or distribution pursuant to clauses (ii) through (ix) above, (a) each donee, trustee, distributee or transferee, as the case may be, agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth in this Section 1; and (b) any such transfer or distribution shall not involve a disposition for value, other than with respect to any such transfer or distribution for which the transferor or distributor receives (x) equity interests of such transferee or (y) such transferee’s interests in the transferor;

(2) in the case of each transfer or distribution pursuant to clauses (ii) through (ix) above, if any public reports or filings (including filings under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act) reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the Lock-Up Period such report or filing shall disclose that such donee, trustee, distributee or transferee, as the case may be, agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein; and

(3) for purposes of clause (xi) above, “Change of Control” shall mean the transfer to or acquisition by (whether by tender offer, merger, consolidation, division or other similar transaction), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, a person or group of Affiliated persons (other than an underwriter pursuant to an offering), of IAC’s voting securities if, after such transfer or acquisition, such person or group of Affiliated persons would beneficially own (within the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of IAC (or the Surviving Corporation).

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the Sponsor shall be permitted to convert outstanding preferred stock, warrants to acquire preferred stock or convertible securities or warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock into shares of Common Stock; provided that any such shares of Common Stock or warrants received upon such conversion shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 1.

(d) The Sponsor also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with IAC’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Covered Securities except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions and to the addition of a legend to the Sponsor’s shares describing the foregoing restrictions. If any transfer is made or attempted to be made contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, such purported prohibited transfer shall be null and void ab initio, and IAC shall refuse to recognize any such purported transferee of the Covered Securities as one of its equity holders for any purpose. IAC agrees that it shall not unreasonably delay or condition or refuse to provide its consent to the transfer agent to remove such restrictions for transfers permitted or not specifically prohibited under this Agreement or the Prospectus.

(g) Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto (or their permitted assigns following such assignment), and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Except to the extent a named party to this Agreement or a permitted assignee following such assignment (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement), (a) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or affiliate of any named party to this Agreement and (b) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of IAC, the Sponsor or the Company under this Agreement of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(h) Enforcement.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (b) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Parties seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its terms shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

(j) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person other than the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder, including the right to rely upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, and the Parties hereto hereby further agree that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the persons expressly named as parties hereto.

(k) Authorization on Behalf of IAC. The Parties acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any and all determinations, actions or other authorizations under this Agreement on behalf of IAC, including, without limitation, enforcing IAC’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, or providing any waivers with respect to the provisions hereof, shall solely be made, taken and authorized by IAC’s directors who qualify as independent directors under the applicable U.S. national stock exchange on which shares of IAC’s common stock are then listed (or, if IAC’s common stock is no longer listed on an U.S. national stock exchange, the last national stock exchange on which IAC’s common stock was listed) and are otherwise not the applicable Sponsor or an Affiliate of the Sponsor (the “Independent Directors”), with the Independent Directors acting by majority vote, consent or approval thereof. In the event that IAC at any time does not have any Independent Directors, so long as the Sponsor has any remaining obligations under this Agreement, IAC will promptly appoint one in connection with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that a Sponsor or a Sponsor’s Affiliate serves as a director, officer, employee or other authorized agent of IAC or any of its current or future Affiliates, the Sponsor and/or Sponsor’s Affiliate shall have no authority, express or implied, to act or make any determination on behalf of IAC or any of its current or future Affiliates in connection with this Agreement or any dispute or Action with respect hereto.
