Payment of Special Bonuses for Certain Named Executive Officers

On August 9, 2011, the Compensation Committee approved cash bonuses to be paid as promptly as possible to David L. Brown and Kevin M. Carney, two of the Company’s named executive officers. The payments were based on the Compensation Committee’s determination to recognize the particular efforts by such officers in connection with the Company’s integration of the Register.com business that was acquired in 2010.  Such efforts include, but are not limited to, meeting or exceeding the planned time required to complete the integration, estimated revenue synergies, cost savings targets and personnel transitions.  The approved special bonuses were paid on August 12, 2011, and were in the following amounts:


David L. Brown
$750,000.00
Kevin M. Carney
$375,000.00
