AGREEMENT, WAIVER & CONSENT RELATING TO REDEMPTION OF SERIES B PREFERRED STOCK

On March 23, Move, Inc. (the “ Company ”) and both Elevation Partners, L.P. and Elevation Side Fund, LLC (together, “Elevation”) entered into an agreement (the “Agreement, Waiver & Consent”) providing for certain waivers and other agreements pertaining to the Stockholders Agreement between the Company and Elevation dated November 29, 2005 (the “Stockholders Agreement”) and the Certificate of Designation of Series B Convertible Participating Preferred Stock dated November 29, 2005 (the “Certificate of Designation”) and also pertaining to a notification (“Notice”) given by the Company to Elevation, the sole holder of the Company’s outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, on March 21, 2012, of the Company’s decision, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, to redeem all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock (the “Redemption”). The Stockholders Agreement and Certificate of Designation are listed in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the 2009 fiscal year (filed on March 5, 2010), as Exhibits 10.56 and 3.01.2, respectively, of Item 15 – Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

     The Agreement, Waiver & Consent provides for certain procedural waivers by Elevation and other related understandings between the parties in facilitation of the Redemption. Pursuant to the Redemption transaction, the Company will redeem from Elevation all the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred stock (i.e., 49,044.05 shares), at a total redemption price of $49,044,050. The Redemption will be effective, and the redemption price paid to Elevation, on April 6, 2012. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Agreement, Waiver & Consent attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report, which is part of the Notice document also included.

     Previously -- on February 22, 2011, and as reported by the Company in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 28, 2011 -- the Company had consummated a partial redemption of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, amounting to a redemption of 70,000 of such then-outstanding shares.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On March 21, 2012, consistent with the Company’s determination to effect the Redemption and in accordance with the Stockholders Agreement, Fred D. Anderson, Elevation’s representative on the Company’s Board of Directors, informed the Company’s Board he would resign from the Board effective on the consummation of the Redemption.

In addition, on March 21, 2012, Roger B. McNamee, another of the Company’s current Board members and a Managing Director of Elevation, informed the Board that he would not be standing for re-election at the Company’s 2012 annual meeting of shareholders (currently scheduled for June 13, 2012).
