Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On September 15, 2011, Market Leader, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with LendingTree, LLC (“LendingTree”) and Realestate.com, Inc. (“Realestate.com” and together with LendingTree, the “Seller”). On September 16, 2011, the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement was completed.

Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired certain assets related to Seller’s business of providing information, tools and services to consumers seeking real estate services. The acquired assets include patents, trademarks and approximately 400 domain names, including Realestate.com; software related to consumer web services; information, contracts and content necessary to operate the Realestate.com website; and, a network of over 250 real estate broker customers. The purchase price for the acquired assets consisted of $8.25 million in cash. The Asset Purchase Agreement includes a 30-day transition period for Seller to transfer the acquired assets to the Company and contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations of Seller and the Company.

Realestate.com provides real estate services, tools and advice to consumers seeking to buy or sell homes and matches consumers with real estate professionals. The Company plans to update and expand coverage of the Realestate.com website and to add more opportunities for real estate professionals to directly engage with interested home buyers and sellers. As a result of the acquisition, the Company expects to leverage the strong domain name and traffic to provide leads to its existing user base of over 60,000 and to reduce future operating costs.
