WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, Parent, LendingTree, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Forest Merger Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), have entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (the "Merger Agreement", including amendments thereto from time to time to increase the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 9.1(e) thereof or in a manner as would not otherwise adversely affect the Stockholder), providing for, among other things, the Merger and related transactions (the "Transactions") on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein (capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement); WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Stockholder beneficially owns the number of Voting Shares (as defined herein) set forth, and in the manner reflected, on Attachment A hereto (the "Owned Shares"); WHEREAS, as a condition to Parent's willingness to enter into and perform its obligations under the Merger Agreement, Parent has required that each Stockholder agree, and each Stockholder has agreed, (i) to vote all of the Owned Shares, together with any shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock") and shares of Series A 8% convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 of the Company (the "Preferred Stock", and together with the Common Stock, the "Company Stock")) acquired after the date of this Agreement, whether upon the exercise of options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise, and any other voting securities of the Company (whether acquired heretofore or hereafter) that are beneficially owned by such Stockholder or over which such Stockholder has, directly or indirectly, the right to vote (collectively, the "Voting Shares"), in favor of (a) the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, (b) the Stockholder Proposal in respect of the Charter Amendment (including any class vote of the holders of Preferred Stock as a separate class as well as the vote of holders of the Company's voting stock voting together, the "Series A Amendment Proposals"), and (c) any other matters submitted to the holders of Company Stock in furtherance of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and (ii) to take the other actions described herein; and WHEREAS, each Stockholder desires to express its support for the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Solely with respect to the matters described in Section 1.1, for so long as this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to its terms, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints Parent as its proxy (which proxy is irrevocable and which appointment is coupled with an interest, including for purposes of Section 212 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) to vote all Voting Shares solely on the matters described in Section 1.1, and in accordance therewith. Each Stockholder agrees to execute any further agreement or form reasonably necessary or appropriate to confirm and effectuate the grant of the proxy contained herein.

The Voting Shares are not, with respect to the voting or transfer thereof, subject to any other agreement, including any voting agreement, stockholders agreement, irrevocable proxy or voting trust. 2.5 Acknowledgment.

Any transfer of Voting Shares not permitted hereby shall be null and void. Stockholder agrees that any such prohibited transfer may and should be enjoined. If any involuntary transfer of any of the Voting Shares shall occur (including, but not limited to, a sale by Stockholder's trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor's or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Voting Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect until valid termination of this Agreement. 4.2 Additional Shares.

This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise and shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, provided, however, that a Stockholder which is an entity may transfer any Owned Shares to a controlled affiliate (which shall be an entity and not a natural person), so long as prior to such transfer, (a) such controlled affiliate enters into an agreement with Parent, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, pursuant to which such controlled affiliated agrees to be bound by (and has full ability to perform the terms of) this Agreement to the full extent such transferring Stockholder is bound, and (b) the transferring Stockholder guarantees to Parent the full performance by such controlled affiliate of such obligations, and such transferring Stockholder shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder, including with respect to the transferred Owned Shares. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any personal -5- liability on any officer, employee, director, incorporator, member, partner or stockholder of Stockholder or any of its affiliates, except in the case of fraud. 6.5 Amendments.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof. (b) Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any Delaware state court or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in such Delaware state or federal court. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The parties hereto further agree, to the extent permitted by law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. (c) To the extent that any party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations with respect to this Agreement. (d) Each party hereto waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each party hereto certifies that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications set forth above in this Section. 6.8 Remedies. Each Stockholder and Parent recognize and acknowledge that a breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other party to sustain irreparable injury and damages, for which money damages would not provide an adequate remedy, and therefore each Stockholder and Parent agrees that in the event of any such breach by the other, each Stockholder or Parent, as the case may be, shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants and agreements and injunctive and other equitable relief to enforce each and every provision of this agreement. 6.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile and in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 6.10 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. -7- 6.11 Severability.
