Explanation of Responses:
1. Disposed of in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of September 17, 2010, by and among Internet Brands, Inc. (the "Company"), Micro Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), and Micro Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub").
2. At the effective time of the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the "Merger"), each outstanding share of the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock was converted into the right to receive $13.35 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Also, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of restricted stock was vested in full and converted into the right to receive $13.35 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Of the 15,733 shares, 4,118 were shares of restricted stock and were cancelled in exchange for a cash payment of $54,975.30.
3. At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock was converted into the right to receive $13.35 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Also, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of restricted stock was vested in full and converted into the right to receive $13.35 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Of the 13,188 shares, 4,118 were shares of restricted stock and were cancelled in exchange for a cash payment of $54,975.30.
4. These shares are held by the reporting person's wife. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein, and the inclusion of these shares in this report shall not be deemed an admission of beneficial ownership of the reported shares for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.
5. On November 12, 2009, the reporting person filed a Form 4 reporting the sale by Idealab Holdings, L.L.C. of 25,671 shares of Class A Common Stock. Such shares were sold by Idealab, not Idealab Holdings, L.L.C. The number of shares reported as being disposed of by Idealab Holdings, L.L.C. and Idealab in the Merger have been adjusted to correct for this attribution error.
