 entities by Match Group and its businesses. No relationships or payments considered were determined to be of the type that would (i) preclude a finding of director independence under the Marketplace Rules or (ii) otherwise interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of the director.

Director Nominations. The Nominating Committee identifies and evaluates individuals qualified to become members of the Match Group Board. The Nominating Committee receives candidate recommendations from stockholders, directors and management and, from time to time, is assisted by a third-party advisor in identifying qualified candidates. In assessing the candidates for recommendation to the Board as director nominees (regardless of how the candidate was identified or recommended), the Nominating Committee will evaluate such candidates against the standards and qualifications set out in its charter, including:

• Personal and professional integrity and character

• Prominence and reputation in the candidate’s profession

• Skills, knowledge, diversity of background and experience, and expertise (including business or other relevant experience) useful and appropriate to the effective oversight of our business

• The capacity and desire to represent the interests of the stockholders as a whole

• The extent to which the interplay of the candidate’s skills, knowledge, expertise,

diversity of background and experience with that of the other Board members will help build a Board that is effective in collectively meeting our strategic needs and serving the long-term interests of the various stakeholders

• Availability to devote sufficient time to the affairs of Match Group

The Nominating Committee considers not only an individual’s qualities, performance and professional responsibilities, but also the then composition of the Board and the challenges and needs of the Board at that time. While the Board 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 Board members and those represented by the Board as a whole to ensure that the Board has the right mix of skills, expertise and background.

The Board does not have a formal policy regarding the consideration of director nominees recommended by stockholders as the Board and the Nominating Committee assess all candidates in the same manner regardless of how the candidate was identified or recommended. Stockholders
