Item 2.01.                                          Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On August 25, 2011, Match.com, a subsidiary of IAC/InterActiveCorp (‘‘IAC’’ or the “Registrant”), completed the purchase of the 11,735,405 shares of Meetic S.A., a French stock corporation (“Meetic”), that were tendered during the initial offer period pursuant to the tender offer launched on July 8, 2011 by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Match.com.  The purchased shares include the approximately 3.7 million Meetic shares tendered by Meetic’s founder, Marc Simoncini, pursuant to his agreement with Match.com.

 

The aggregate price for the purchased shares was approximately €176 million (approximately $255 million at current exchange rates), based on the offer price of €15.00 per share.  After giving effect to this purchase, Match.com holds approximately 17.8 million Meetic shares, representing approximately 77.6% of Meetic’s share capital.

 

On August 19, 2011, the offer was reopened to allow those shareholders who did not tender their shares during the initial offer period to tender their shares at the same offer price.  This subsequent offer will expire on September 1, 2011, and any Meetic shares tendered during this subsequent offer period will be purchased by Match.com on or before September 19, 2011.
