6.Taxes and Withholding

No later than the date as of which an amount in respect of any portion of the Award first becomes includible in Executive's gross income for federal, state, local or foreign income or employment or other tax purposes, IAC or its Subsidiaries and/or Affiliates shall deduct any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount due to Executive by reducing the number of shares of IAC Common Stock issued upon settlement of the Award that gives rise to the withholding requirement. In the event shares of IAC Common Stock are deducted to cover tax withholdings, the number of shares of IAC Common Stock withheld shall generally have a value based on the IAC FMV equal to the aggregate amount of IAC's withholding obligation on the same date. If the event that any such deduction and/or withholding is prohibited by law, Executive shall, prior to or contemporaneously with the vesting of the Award, pay to IAC, or make arrangements satisfactory to IAC regarding the payment of, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount.

(A/B)1/Cminus 1
