, and your broker, bank or other nominee would be able to vote upon the matter if you do not provide them with specific voting instructions. However, in that event, it is possible that a broker may choose not to exercise discretionary authority with respect to the ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as Match Group’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2025 fiscal year. In that case, if you do not instruct your broker how to vote with respect to the ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as Match Group’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2025 fiscal year, your broker may not vote with respect to such proposal. Therefore, we encourage you to instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee to vote your shares by executing and returning the enclosed WHITE voting instruction form or by voting via the Internet or by telephone by following the instructions provided on the enclosed WHITE voting instruction form.

Q: What are my voting choices when voting for director nominees and what votes are required to elect director nominees to Match Group’s Board of Directors?

A: You may vote ”For" or “Withhold” on each of the nominees for election as a director.

As described previously, Anson has notified Match Group of its intention to nominate the Anson Nominees to stand for election as directors at the Annual Meeting in opposition to the nominees recommended by the Board. As a result, assuming the Anson Nominees are in fact nominated for election at the Annual Meeting and such nomination has not been withdrawn by Anson, the election of directors will be considered a contested election under Article II Section 9 of Match Group’s Bylaws. Due to such contested election, all director nominees will be elected by a plurality of votes cast at the election of directors, assuming a quorum is present. “Withhold” votes, failure to vote and any broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and will result in the applicable nominee(s) receiving fewer votes cast “FOR” such nominee(s).

The Board recommends that our stockholders vote “FOR” the election of each of the Board’s director nominees (Stephen Bailey, Melissa Brenner and Alan G. Spoon).
