STANDARD
TERMS AND CONDITIONS


 


1.            TERMINATION
OF EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT.


 


(a)            DEATH.
In the event Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, the Company shall pay Executive’s
designated beneficiary or beneficiaries, within thirty (30) days of Executive’s death (or such earlier date as may be required by
law) in a lump sum in cash, (i) Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the month in which his death occurs and (ii) any
Accrued Obligations (as defined in Section 1(f) below). In addition, any incentive equity or equity-linked awards in or relating
to equity of the Company or its subsidiaries (e.g., restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, phantom stock or similar
instruments) that are outstanding and unvested as of the date of such termination of employment and that would have vested at any time
through the first anniversary of the date of the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company (the “Termination
Date”) shall vest upon Executive’s death and shall be settled in accordance with their terms. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (A) any amounts that would vest under this provision but for the fact that outstanding performance conditions have not
been satisfied shall vest only if, and at such point as, such performance conditions are satisfied, and (B) the terms of any future
awards may be varied in the governing documents of such award.


 


(b)            DISABILITY.
If, as a result of Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness (“Disability”), Executive
shall be unable to substantially perform Executive’s duties with the Company for a period of four (4) consecutive months and,
within thirty (30) days after written notice of a pending termination for Disability is provided to Executive by the Company (in accordance
with Section 4A hereof), Executive shall not have been able to substantially perform Executive’s duties, Executive’s
employment under this Agreement may be terminated by the Company for Disability. During any period prior to such termination during which
Executive is absent from the full-time performance of Executive’s duties with the Company due to Disability, the Company shall continue
to pay Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of such period of Disability, offset by any amounts payable
to Executive under any disability insurance plan or policy provided by the Company. Upon termination of Executive’s employment due
to Disability, the Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days of such termination (or such earlier date as may be required by
law) in a lump sum in cash (i) Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the month in which termination occurs, offset by
any amounts payable to Executive under any disability insurance plan or policy provided by the Company; and (ii) any Accrued Obligations.


 






    	 		 



     


    

 


(c)           TERMINATION
FOR CAUSE; TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause
(as defined below) or by Executive without Good Reason (as defined below), the Company shall have no further obligation hereunder, except
for the payment of any Accrued Obligations. As used herein, “Cause” shall mean: (i) the plea of guilty
or nolo contendere to, or conviction for, a felony offense by Executive; provided, however, that (A) after indictment,
the Company may suspend Executive from the rendition of services, but without limiting or modifying in any other way the Company’s
obligations under this Agreement and (B) Executive’s employment shall be immediately reinstated if the indictment is dismissed
or otherwise dropped and there is not otherwise grounds to terminate Executive’s employment for Cause; (ii) a material breach
by Executive of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (iii) a material breach by Executive of any of the covenants made by Executive
in Section 2 hereof; (iv) Executive’s continued willful failure to perform or gross neglect of the material duties required
by this Agreement (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness); or (v) a knowing and
material violation by Executive of any material Company policy pertaining to ethics, wrongdoing or conflicts of interest, which policy
had been provided to Executive in writing or otherwise made generally available prior to such violation; provided, that in the case of
conduct described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above which is capable of being cured, Executive shall have a period of
ten (10) days after Executive is provided with written notice (specifying in reasonable detail the acts or omissions believed to
constitute Cause and the steps necessary to remedy such condition, if curable) in which to cure, which such notice specifically identifies
the breach, the nature of the willful or gross neglect or the violation that the Company believes constitutes Cause.


 


(d)           TERMINATION
BY THE COMPANY OTHER THAN FOR DEATH, DISABILITY OR CAUSE OR RESIGNATION BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON. If Executive’s employment
hereunder is terminated prior to the expiration of the Term by the Company for any reason other than Executive’s death, Disability
or Cause, or if Executive terminates Executive’s employment hereunder prior to the expiration of the Term for Good Reason, then:


 


(i)             the
Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to the Base Salary that would have been paid to Executive for the twelve (12) months from
the Termination Date (the “Severance Period”) if Executive had remained employed during such period in the time
and manner set forth below;


 


(ii)            the
Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days after the Termination Date (or such earlier date as may be required by applicable
law) in a lump sum in cash any Accrued Obligations; and


 


(iii)           any
incentive equity or equity-linked awards in or relating to equity of the Company or its subsidiaries (e.g., restricted stock, restricted
stock units, stock options, phantom stock or similar instruments), that are outstanding and unvested at the time of such termination of
employment and that would have vested at any time through the first anniversary of the Termination Date, shall vest immediately upon such
termination and shall be settled in accordance with their terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) any amounts that would vest under
this provision but for the fact that outstanding performance conditions have not been satisfied shall vest only if, and at such point
as, such performance conditions are satisfied, and (2) the terms of any future awards may be varied in the governing documents of
such award; and


 


(iv)           the
Company shall, during the Severance Period, provide Executive with continued coverage under the Company’s group health plan, at
the Company’s cost, or with an additional monthly payment in an amount necessary to cover the full premiums for continued healthcare
coverage under the Company’s plans through COBRA, at the same coverage level as in effect for Executive as of the Termination Date.
The payment under this clause (iv) shall be grossed up for applicable taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive
obtains alternative employment during the Severance Period offering employer-paid healthcare coverage that is no less favorable than the
benefits provided under the Company’s group health plan, Executive shall enroll in and obtain coverage under such new employer’s
plan at the earliest opportunity and the Company’s obligations under this clause (iv) shall cease as of the effective date
of such alternate coverage.

release of the Company and its affiliates, in substantially the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”).

course of the twelve (12) month period beginning on the first business day of the second month following the month in which Executive’s
Separation from Service (as such term is defined below) took place (plus interest on the amount delayed from the Termination Date to the
date payment begins at the then applicable borrowing rate of the Company as of the commencement of such delay). Any benefits due to Executive
pursuant to Section 1(d)(iv) shall be paid through the Company’s payroll on the first regularly scheduled pay date of
each month.

of any of the following without Executive’s prior written consent: (A) requiring Executive to report to any person or
persons other than the Reporting Officer, (B) a material diminution in title or the assignment of duties and responsibilities to,
or limitation on duties of, Executive inconsistent with Executive’s position as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, including
if the Executive is no longer Chief Financial Officer of a publicly-traded company, excluding for this purpose any such instance that
is an isolated and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith or that is authorized pursuant to this Agreement, (C) any material reduction

of such event or circumstance, which notice specifically identifies the event or circumstance that Executive believes constitutes Good
Reason, (y) the Company fails to correct the circumstance or event so identified within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such
notice, and (z) Executive resigns within ninety (90) days after the date of delivery of the notice referred to in clause (x) above.

to Section 1(d)(i) above, the amount of any installment payments remaining to be made to Executive thereunder at the time such
other employment commences shall be reduced, on a dollar for dollar basis, in the order of the scheduled dates of payment of such remaining
installments (taking into account any delay in any installment payment required under Section 9A of the Agreement) by the amount
of compensation received by Executive from such other employment on or prior to the scheduled date of payment of each such remaining installment.
For purposes of this Section 1(e), Executive shall have an obligation to inform the Company regarding Executive’s employment
status following termination and during the period of time in which the Company is making payments to Executive under Section 1(d)(i) above.

is a party, if any (provided, that any election made by Executive pursuant to any deferred compensation arrangement that is subject
to Section 409A regarding the schedule for payment of such deferred compensation shall prevail over this Section 1(f) to
the extent inconsistent herewith).


 


(g)            NON-RENEWAL.
If the Company delivers a Non-Renewal Notice to Executive then, provided Executive’s employment hereunder continues through
the expiration date then in effect, effective as of such expiration date, Executive’s employment with the Company automatically
will terminate and the Company and Executive shall have the same rights and obligations hereunder as they would if the Company had terminated
Executive’s employment hereunder at the end of the Term for any reason other than Executive’s death, Disability or Cause.

and its subsidiaries or affiliates; provided, that, Executive may retain Executive’s personal effects, copies of documentation reasonably
necessary for Executive to prepare Executive’s tax returns and documents relating to Executive’s compensation. As used in
this Agreement, “subsidiaries” and “affiliates” shall mean any company controlled by, controlling or under common
control with the Company.

(b)           NON-COMPETITION.


 


(i)             In
consideration of this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged by Executive, Executive hereby agrees and covenants that, during Executive’s employment with the Company
and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or
indirectly, engage in or become associated with a Competitive Activity.


 


(ii)            For
purposes of this Section 2(b), a “Competitive Activity” means engaging in the business of providing online
or app-based dating services or in such other business involving the provision of the same or similar products or services that any business
of the Company is engaged in providing as of the Termination Date (the “Company Products or Services”), provided
such business or endeavor is in the United States, or in any foreign jurisdiction in which the Company provides, or has provided during
the Term, the relevant Company Group Products or Services.


 


(iii)           For
purposes of this Section 2(b), Executive shall be considered to have become “associated with a Competitive Activity”
if Executive becomes directly or indirectly involved as an owner, principal, employee, officer, director, independent contractor, representative,
stockholder, financial backer, agent, partner, member, advisor, lender, consultant or in any other individual or representative capacity
with any individual, partnership, corporation or other organization that is engaged in a Competitive Activity.


 


(iv)           Notwithstanding
anything else in this Section 2(b), (A) Executive may become employed by or provide services to a partnership, corporation or
other organization that is engaged in a Competitive Activity so long as Executive has no direct or indirect responsibilities or involvement
in the Competitive Activity, and (B) Executive may own, for investment purposes only, up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding
capital stock of any publicly-traded corporation engaged in a Competitive Activity if the stock of such corporation is either listed on
a national stock exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System and if Executive is not otherwise affiliated with such corporation.


 


(c)           NON-SOLICITATION
OF EMPLOYEES. Executive recognizes that Executive possesses and will possess Confidential Information about other employees, consultants
and contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries relating to their education, experience, skills, abilities, compensation and benefits,
and inter-personal relationships with suppliers to and customers of the Company and its subsidiaries. Executive recognizes that the information
Executive possesses and will possess about these other employees, consultants and contractors is not generally known, is of substantial
value to the Company and its subsidiaries in developing their respective businesses and in securing and retaining customers, and has been
and will be acquired by Executive because of Executive’s business position with the Company. Executive agrees that, during Executive’s
employment with the Company, and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, solicit, recruit
or hire any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (or any individual who was an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
at any time during the six (6) months prior to such act of hiring, solicitation or recruitment) for the purpose of being employed
by Executive or by any business, individual, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity on whose behalf Executive is acting as an
agent, representative or employee and that Executive will not convey any such Confidential Information or trade secrets about other employees
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to any other person except within the scope of Executive’s duties hereunder. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Executive is not precluded from soliciting or hiring any individual who (i) responds to any public advertisement or
general solicitation, or (ii) has been terminated by the Company prior to the solicitation.

(d)           NON-SOLICITATION
OF BUSINESS PARTNERS. During Executive’s employment with the Company, and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Executive
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, persuade or encourage any business partners or business affiliates of the
Company or its subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or to engage in any business competitive
with the Company or its subsidiaries.


 


(e)           PROPRIETARY
RIGHTS; ASSIGNMENT. All Employee Developments are and shall be made for hire by Executive for the Company or any of its subsidiaries
or affiliates. “Employee Developments” means any discovery, invention, design, method, technique, improvement,
enhancement, development, computer program, machine, algorithm or other work or authorship that (i) relates to the business or operations
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or (ii) results from or is suggested by any undertaking assigned to Executive
or work performed by Executive for or on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, whether created alone or with
others, during or after working hours (including before the Effective Date). All Confidential Information and all Employee Developments
shall remain the sole property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive has not acquired and shall not acquire
any proprietary interest in any Confidential Information or Employee Developments developed or acquired during the Term or during Executive’s
employment with the Company before the Effective Date. To the extent Executive may, by operation of law or otherwise, acquire any right,
title or interest in or to any Confidential Information or Employee Development, Executive hereby assigns to the Company all such proprietary
rights. Executive shall, both during and after the Term, upon the Company’s request, promptly execute and deliver to the Company
all such assignments, certificates and instruments, and shall promptly perform such other acts, as the Company may from time to time in
its discretion deem necessary or desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, perfect, enforce or defend the Company’s rights in
Confidential Information and Employee Developments.


 


(f)            COMPLIANCE
WITH POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. During the period that Executive is employed with the Company hereunder, Executive shall adhere to the
policies and standards of professionalism set forth in the Company’s Policies and Procedures as they may exist from time to time.


 


(g)           SURVIVAL
OF PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in this Section 2 shall, to the extent provided in this Section 2, survive the
termination or expiration of Executive’s employment with the Company and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable thereafter in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any state that any restriction
in this Section 2 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of that state, it is the intention
of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted
by the law of that state.

3.             TERMINATION
OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS/EXISTING CLAIMS/AUTHORITY. Except for any agreements relating to currently outstanding equity or equity-linked
awards as of the date of this Agreement (which remain outstanding, but subject to the terms of this Agreement), this Agreement constitutes
the entire agreement between the parties and, as of the Effective Date, terminates and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings
(whether written or oral) between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees
that neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has made, and is not making, and in executing this Agreement, Executive has not
relied upon, any representations, promises or inducements except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement. The
Company represents that it has due authority to enter into this Agreement and has taken all necessary corporate action to enter into this
Agreement and provide the compensation set forth herein.


 


4.             ASSIGNMENT;
SUCCESSORS. This Agreement is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the others, assign
or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, other than Executive to Executive’s heirs and beneficiaries upon
Executive’s death to the extent provided in this Agreement; provided that in the event of the merger, consolidation, transfer,
or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company with or to any other individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject
to the provisions hereof, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor shall discharge and perform all
the promises, covenants, duties, and obligations of the Company hereunder, and in the event of any such assignment or transaction, all
references herein to the “Company” shall refer to the Company’s assignee or successor hereunder.


 


5.             WITHHOLDING.
The Company shall make such deductions and withhold such amounts from each payment and benefit made or provided to Executive hereunder,
as may be required from time to time by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.


 


6.             WAIVER;
MODIFICATION. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof shall not be deemed
a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance
with, any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time
or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except by a writing executed by each party hereto.


 


7.             SECTION 409A
OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.


 


(a)            This
Agreement is not intended to constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”). 
It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement and the Company’s and Executive’s exercise of authority or discretion
hereunder shall comply with and avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement
shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent.


 






    	 	8	 



     


    

 


(b)            For
purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” occurs when Executive dies, retires or otherwise has a termination
of employment with the Company that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1),
without regard to the optional alternative definitions available thereunder.


 


(c)            If
Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date
of Executive’s Separation from Service, Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefit pursuant to clause (i) of
Section 1(d) until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after Executive’s Separation from Service
for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply if,
and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section 409A. Any amounts otherwise
payable to Executive upon or in the six (6) month period following Executive’s Separation from Service that are not so paid
by reason of this Section 6(c) shall be paid (without interest) as soon as practicable after the date that is six (6) months
after Executive’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, as soon as practicable after the date of Executive’s death).


 


(d)            To
the extent that any reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement is taxable to Executive, Executive shall provide the Company with documentation
of the related expenses promptly so as to facilitate the timing of the reimbursement payment contemplated by this paragraph, and any reimbursement
payment due to Executive pursuant to such provision shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable
year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. Such reimbursement obligations pursuant to this Agreement are
not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in one taxable year
shall not affect the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in any other taxable year.


 


(e)            In
no event shall the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or penalties
imposed under Section 409A with respect to any benefit paid to Executive hereunder. The Company agrees to take any reasonable steps
requested by Executive to avoid adverse tax consequences to Executive as a result of any benefit to Executive hereunder being subject
to Section 409A, provided that Executive shall, if requested, reimburse the Company for any incremental costs (other than incidental
costs) associated with taking such steps. All payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made
upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A.


 


8.             Reduction
of Certain Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in any other
agreement between Executive and the Company or any plan maintained by the Company, if there is a Section 280G Change in Control (as
defined in Section 8(e)(i) below), the following rules shall apply:


 


(a)            Except
as otherwise provided in Section 8(c) below, if it is determined in accordance with Section 8(d) below that any portion
of the Contingent Compensation Payments (as defined in 8(e)(ii) below) that otherwise would be paid or provided to Executive or for
her benefit in connection with the 280G Change in Control would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code
(“Excise Tax”), then such Contingent Compensation Payments shall be reduced by the smallest total amount necessary
in order for the aggregate present value of all such Contingent Compensation Payments after such reduction, as determined in accordance
with the applicable provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, not to exceed the Excise Tax Threshold
Amount (as defined in Section 8(e)(iii) below).


 






    	 	9	 



     


    

 


(b)            If
the Auditor (as defined in Section 8(d) below) determines that any reduction is so required, the Payments to be reduced, and
the reduction to be made to such Payments, shall be determined by the Auditor in its sole discretion in a manner which will result in
the least economic cost to Executive, and if the reduction with respect to two or more Payments would result in equivalent economic cost
to Executive, such Payments shall be reduced in the inverse chronological order of the dates on which such Payments were otherwise scheduled
to be made to Executive, until the required reduction has been fully achieved.


 


(c)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no reduction in any of the Executive’s Contingent Compensation Payments shall be made pursuant to Section 8(a) above
if it is determined in accordance with Section 8(d) below that the After Tax Amount of the Contingent Compensation Payments
payable to Executive without such reduction would exceed the After Tax Amount of the reduced Contingent Compensation Payments payable
to her in accordance with Section 8(a) above. For purposes of the foregoing, (x) the “After Tax Amount” of
the Contingent Compensation Payments, as computed with, and as computed without, the reduction provided for under Section 8(a) above,
shall mean the amount of the Contingent Compensation Payments, as so computed, that Executive would retain after payment of all taxes
(including without limitation any federal, state or local income taxes, the Excise Tax or any other excise taxes, any medicare or other
employment taxes, and any other taxes) imposed on such Contingent Compensation Payments in the year or years in which payable; and (y) the
amount of such taxes shall be computed at the rates in effect under the applicable tax laws in the year in which the 280G Change in Control
occurs, or if then ascertainable, the rates in effect in any later year in which any Contingent Compensation Payment is expected to be
paid following the 280G Change in Control, and in the case of any income taxes, by using the maximum combined federal, state and (if applicable)
local income tax rates then in effect under such laws.


 


(d)            A
determination as to whether any Excise Tax is payable with respect to Executive’s Contingent Compensation Payments and if so, as
to the amount thereof, and a determination as to whether any reduction in Executive’s Contingent Compensation Payments is required
pursuant to the provisions of Sections 8(a) and 8(c) above, and if so, as to the amount of the reduction so required, shall
be made by no later than 15 days prior to the closing of the transaction or the occurrence of the event that constitutes the 280G Change
in Control. Such determinations, and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by an independent
auditor (the “Auditor”) jointly selected by Executive and the Company, all of whose fees and expenses shall
be borne and directly paid solely by the Company. The Auditor shall be a nationally recognized public accounting firm which has not, during
the two years preceding the date of its selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company or any of its affiliates. If Executive and
the Company cannot agree on the firm to serve as the Auditor, then Executive and the Company shall each select one accounting firm and
those two firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor. The Auditor shall provide a written report of its determinations,
including detailed supporting calculations, both to Executive and to the Company. The determinations made by the Auditor pursuant to this
Section 8(d) shall be binding upon Executive and the Company.


 






    	 	10	 



     


    

 


(e)           For
purposes of the foregoing, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:


 


(i)             “280G
Change in Control” shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of a substantial
portion of the assets of the Company, as determined in accordance with Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and the regulations issued
thereunder.


 


(ii)            “Contingent
Compensation Payment” shall mean any payment or benefit in the nature of compensation that is to be paid or provided to
Executive or for her benefit in connection with a 280G Change in Control (whether under this Agreement or otherwise, including by the
entity, or by any affiliate of the entity, whose acquisition of the stock of the Company or its assets constitutes the Change in Control)
if Executive is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) at the time of the 280G
Change in Control, to the extent that such payment or benefit is “contingent” on the 280G Change in Control within the meaning
of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder.


 


(iii)           “Excise
Tax Threshold Amount” shall mean an amount equal to (x) three times Executive’s “base amount” within
the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, less (y) $1,000.


 


9.             HEADING
REFERENCES. Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute
a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. References to “this Agreement” or the use of the term “hereof”
shall refer to these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Employment Agreement attached hereto, taken as a whole.


 


10.           REMEDIES
FOR BREACH.


 


(a)            Executive
expressly agrees and understands that Executive will notify the Company in writing of any alleged breach of this Agreement by the Company,
and the Company will have thirty (30) days from receipt of Executive’s notice to cure any such breach. Executive expressly agrees
and understands that in the event of any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company during the Term, the Company’s
contractual obligations to Executive shall be fulfilled through compliance with its obligations under Section 1 of the Standard Terms
and Conditions.


 


(b)            Executive
expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by Executive of Section 2 of the Standard Terms and Conditions
will be inadequate and that damages flowing from such breach are not usually susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly,
it is acknowledged that, upon Executive’s violation of any provision of such Section 2, the Company shall be entitled to obtain
from any court of competent jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further
breach as well as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such violation. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
deemed to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Agreement,
including Section 2, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.


 






    	 	11	 



     


    

 


11.            SEVERABILITY.
In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public
policy, only the portions of this Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this Agreement that
do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, any court order striking any portion of
this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties
under this Agreement.


 


12.            INDEMNIFICATION.
The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless for acts and omissions in Executive’s capacity as an officer, director or
employee of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law; provided, however, that neither the Company
nor any of its subsidiaries and affiliates shall indemnify Executive for any losses incurred by Executive as a result of acts described
in Section 1(c) of the Standard Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.

Exhibit A


 


Form of Release


 


THIS RELEASE (the “Release”)
is entered into between Gary Swidler (“Executive”) and Match Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
for the benefit of the Company. The entering into and non-revocation of this Release is a condition to Executive’s right to receive
certain payments and benefits under Sections 1(d)(i) and (iii) of the employment agreement entered into by and between
Executive and the Company, dated as of August 8, 2018 (the “Employment Agreement”). Capitalized terms used and
not defined herein shall have the meaning provided in the Employment Agreement.


 


Accordingly, Executive and the
Company agree as follows.


 


1.              In
consideration for the payments and other benefits provided to Executive by the Employment Agreement, to which Executive is not otherwise
entitled, and the sufficiency of which Executive acknowledges, Executive represents and agrees, as follows:


 


(a)            Executive,
for Executive’s self and Executive’s heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors and assigns (collectively
 “Releasers”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, acquits and forever discharges and agrees not to sue
the Company or any of its parents, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates and related entities and their current and former directors, officers,
shareholders, trustees, employees, consultants, independent contractors, representatives, agents, servants, successors and assigns and
all persons acting by, through or under or in concert with any of them (collectively “Releasees”), from all claims,
rights and liabilities up to and including the date of this Release arising from or relating to Executive’s employment with, or
termination of employment from, the Company, and from any and all charges, complaints, claims, liabilities, obligations, promises, agreements,
controversies, damages, actions, causes of actions, suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts and expenses of any nature whatsoever,
known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected and any claims of wrongful discharge, breach of contract, implied contract, promissory estoppel,
defamation, slander, libel, tortious conduct, employment discrimination or claims under any federal, state or local employment statute,
law, order or ordinance, including any rights or claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. (“ADEA”), or any other federal, state or municipal
ordinance relating to discrimination in employment. Nothing contained herein shall restrict the parties’ rights to enforce the terms
of this Release.


 


(b)            To
the maximum extent permitted by law, Executive agrees that Executive has not filed, nor will Executive ever file, a lawsuit asserting
any claims which are released by this Release, or to accept any benefit from any lawsuit which might be filed by another person or government
entity based in whole or in part on any event, act, or omission which is the subject of this Release.


 


(c)            This
Release specifically excludes (i) Executive’s rights and the Company’s obligations to provide severance payments under
Section 1 of the Employment Agreement; (ii) Executive’s right to indemnification under Section 12 of the Standard
Terms and Conditions attached to the Employment Agreement or otherwise under the Company’s organizational documents, applicable
insurance policies or applicable law; (iii) Executive’s right to assert claims for workers’ compensation or unemployment
benefits; (v) Executive’s vested rights under any retirement or welfare benefit plan of the Company or under any equity or
equity-linked award that remains outstanding following the Termination Date (as defined in the Employment Agreement); or (vi) any
other rights that may not be waived by an employee under applicable law. Nothing contained in this Release shall release Executive from
Executive’s obligations, including any obligations to abide by restrictive covenants, under the Employment Agreement that continue
or are to be performed following termination of employment.


 






    	 		 



     


    

 


(d)          The
parties agree that this Release shall not affect the rights and responsibilities of the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (hereinafter
 “EEOC”) to enforce ADEA and other laws. In addition, the parties agree that this Release shall not be used to justify
interfering with Executive’s protected right to file a charge or participate in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the
EEOC. The parties further agree that Executive knowingly and voluntarily waives all rights or claims (that arose prior to Executive’s
execution of this Release) the Releasers may have against the Releasees, or any of them, to receive any benefit or remedial relief (including,
but not limited to, reinstatement, back pay, front pay, damages, attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees) as a consequence of any investigation
or proceeding conducted by the EEOC.


 


2.            Executive
acknowledges that the Company has specifically advised Executive of the right to seek the advice of an attorney concerning the terms and
conditions of this Release. Executive further acknowledges that Executive has been furnished with a copy of this Release, and Executive
has been afforded forty-five (45) days in which to consider the terms and conditions set forth above prior to this Release. By executing
this Release, Executive affirmatively states that Executive has had sufficient and reasonable time to review this Release and to consult
with an attorney concerning Executive’s legal rights prior to the final execution of this Release. Executive further agrees that
Executive has carefully read this Release and fully understands its terms. Executive understands that Executive may revoke this Release
within seven (7) days after signing this Release. Revocation of this Release must be made in writing and must be received by the
General Counsel at the Company, 8750 North Central Expressway, 14th Floor, Dallas, TX 75231 within the time period set forth
above.


 


3.            This
Release will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without giving effect to any choice of
law or conflicting provision or rule (whether of the state of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the state of New York to be applied. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal law of the state of New York
will control the interpretation and construction of this agreement, even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict
of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply. The provisions of this Release are severable,
and if any part or portion of it is found to be unenforceable, the other paragraphs shall remain fully valid and enforceable.


 


4.            This
Release shall become effective and enforceable on the eighth day following its execution by Executive, provided Executive does not exercise
Executive’s right of revocation as described above. If Executive fails to sign and deliver this Release or revokes Executive’s
signature, this Release will be without force or effect, and Executive shall not be entitled to the payments and benefits of Section 1(d),
with the exception of Section 1(d)(i) of the Employment Agreement.
