PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(to prospectus dated August 10, 2020)
Match Group, Inc.
Common Stock
This prospectus supplement relates to the offer and sale, from time to time, of up to 32,993,518 shares of Match Group, Inc.
("Match Group") Common Stock, par value $0.001 ("Match Group Common Stock"), by persons who receive such
shares upon exchange of the 0.875% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes"), the 0.875% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026 (the
"2026 Notes") and the 2.00% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes" and together with the 2022
Notes and the 2026 Notes, the "Notes"). An aggregate of $517.5 million principal amount of 2022 Notes was issued by a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Match Group, Match Group FinanceCo, Inc. ("FinanceCo 1"), in a private transaction that closed on October 2, 2017. An aggregate of
$575.0 million principal amount of 2026 Notes was issued by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Match Group, Match Group FinanceCo 2, Inc. ("FinanceCo
2"), and an aggregate of $575.0 million principal amount of 2030 Notes was issued by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Match Group, Match Group FinanceCo 3, Inc.
("FinanceCo 3"), in private transactions that closed on May 28 and June 3, 2019. The Notes were offered only to (and may be reoffered, sold
or otherwise transferred only to) investors that are both qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act")), and qualified purchasers (for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"Investment Company Act")). The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be
offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws. The Notes are guaranteed by
Match Group on a senior unsecured basis. Under certain circumstances, the Notes of any series are exchangeable at the option of the noteholders into shares of Match Group Common Stock. The applicable
issuer of the Notes may, at its election, deliver (or cause to be delivered) cash instead of shares of Match Group Common Stock (or a combination thereof) to noteholders upon exchange of their Notes.
Noteholders who receive shares of Match Group Common Stock upon exchange of their Notes (the "Selling Stockholders") may use this prospectus supplement to
resell, from time to time, such shares, so long as they satisfy certain conditions set forth in the applicable registration rights agreement between us, the applicable issuer and the applicable
Selling Stockholder (collectively, the "Registration Rights Agreements").
If
one or more Selling Stockholders satisfy certain conditions set forth in the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, then in accordance with the terms of such Registration Rights
Agreement, Match Group will file a prospectus supplement or a post-effective amendment naming such Selling Stockholder(s) and stating the number of shares of Match Group Common Stock to be
offered and sold by such Selling Stockholder(s). The registration of the shares of Match Group Common Stock covered by this prospectus supplement does not necessarily mean that: (i) any
noteholders will elect to exchange their Notes, (ii) upon any exchange of the Notes of any series, the applicable issuer will elect to exchange some or all of the Notes of such series for
shares of Match Group Common Stock rather than cash (or a combination thereof) or (iii) any shares of Match Group Common Stock received upon exchange of the Notes of a series will be ultimately
offered or sold by the Selling Stockholders.
While
neither Match Group nor the applicable issuer of the Notes will receive any of the proceeds from any issuance of shares of Match Group Common Stock to the Selling Stockholders or
from any sale of such shares by the Selling Stockholders, Match Group has agreed to pay certain expenses relating to the registration of such shares. See "Selling Stockholders" and "Plan of
Distribution." The Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, offer and sell the shares held by them directly or indirectly through agents or broker-dealers on terms to be determined at the time of
sale. See "Plan of Distribution."
Shares
of Match Group Common Stock are traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or NASDAQ, under the ticker symbol "MTCH." On August 7, 2020, the last reported sales price of
shares of Match Group Common Stock on the NASDAQ was $115.88 per share.
Investing in Match Group Common Stock involves risks. You should carefully read and consider the risks described in "Risk
Factors" on page S-2 of this prospectus supplement and as incorporated by reference herein before investing in Match Group Common Stock.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") nor any state
securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal
offense.
The
date of this prospectus supplement is August 10, 2020.

Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,

USE OF PROCEEDS
Neither Match Group nor the applicable issuer of the Notes will receive any of the proceeds from any issuance of shares of Match Group Common
Stock to the Selling Stockholders or from any sale of such shares by the Selling Stockholders.
The
Selling Stockholders will pay any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of the shares registered under this prospectus supplement, or any fees and
expenses of any broker-dealer or other financial intermediary engaged by any Selling Stockholder. Match Group will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration
of the shares covered by this prospectus supplement. See "Selling Stockholders" and "Plan of Distribution."

Table of Contents
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The Notes were originally sold by the initial purchasers of the Notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act to persons reasonably believed by such initial purchasers to be both qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) and qualified purchasers
(for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act). Under certain circumstances, Match Group may issue shares of Match Group Common Stock upon the exchange of the Notes of any
series. In such circumstances, the Selling Stockholders may use this prospectus supplement to resell, from time to time, the shares of Match Group Common Stock received upon the exchange of the Notes
of the relevant series.
If
one or more Selling Stockholders satisfy certain conditions set forth in the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, then in accordance with the terms of the applicable Registration
Rights Agreement, Match Group will file a further prospectus supplement naming such Selling Stockholders and stating the number of shares of Match Group Common Stock offered by such Selling
Stockholders.
Information
about certain Selling Stockholders is set forth herein, and information about additional Selling Stockholders (if any) will be set forth in a further prospectus supplement or
in filings that Match Group makes with the SEC under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Selling
Stockholders, including their transferees, pledgees or donees or their successors, may, from time to time, offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus supplement any or all of the shares of Match Group
Common Stock that Match Group may issue to such Selling Stockholder upon the exchange of the Notes of any series.
Based
upon information provided by the Selling Stockholders, except to the extent provided in the footnotes below, none of the Selling Stockholders nor any of their affiliates, officers,
directors or principal equity holders, has held any positions or office (or has had any material relationship) with Match Group within the three years prior to the date they furnished such
information.
To
the extent any of the Selling Stockholders identified below are broker-dealers, they may be deemed to be, under interpretations of the staff of the SEC, "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, Match Group believes that the persons and entities named in the tables below have sole voting and investment power
with respect to all shares of Match Group Common Stock listed as beneficially owned by them.
The
Selling Stockholders may offer and sell all, some or none of the shares of Match Group Common Stock that Match Group may issue upon the exchange of the Notes of any series. Because
the Selling Stockholders may offer all or some portion of such shares of Match Group Common Stock, Match Group cannot estimate the number of shares of Match Group Common Stock that will be held by the
Selling Stockholders upon the termination of any of these sales. In addition, the Selling Stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their
Notes since the date on which they provided the information regarding their Notes in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. This information is based on
information provided by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholders. The number of shares of Match Group Common Stock owned by the Selling Stockholders (or any of their future transferees) assumes that
they do not beneficially own any shares of Match Group Common Stock other than the Match Group Common Stock that Match Group may issue to them upon the exchange of the Notes of the relevant series.
Percentage ownership information in the following tables is based on 260,016,024 shares of Match Group Common Stock outstanding on July 31, 2020.

Table of Contents
The 2022 Notes
The following table sets forth information, as of January 22, 2018 with respect to the Selling Stockholders and the number of shares of
Match Group Common Stock that would become beneficially owned by each Selling Stockholder, should Match Group issue the maximum number of shares of Match Group Common Stock to such Selling Stockholder
upon exchange of the 2022 Notes, that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement. Accordingly, the number of shares of Match Group Common Stock issuable upon the exchange of the 2022 Notes
shown in the following table assumes exchange of the full amount of 2022 Notes held by each Selling Stockholder at the maximum exchange rate of 30.1135 shares of Match Group Common Stock per $1,000
principal amount of 2022 Notes and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional shares. This exchange rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. Accordingly, the number of shares
of Match Group Common Stock issued upon the exchange of the 2022 Notes may increase or decrease from time to time.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS
The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below)
with respect to the ownership and disposition of shares of Match Group Common Stock offered by this prospectus supplement, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax
considerations. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder
("Treasury Regulations"), administrative rulings and published positions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service
("IRS") and judicial decisions, each as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change and to different interpretations. Changes
to any of the foregoing authorities could apply on a retroactive basis, and could affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences described below.
This
discussion is for general information only and does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a particular investor's circumstances, does
not discuss any aspect of U.S. federal tax law other than income taxation, and does not address any considerations under any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws. In addition, this discussion does not
address any tax consequences arising under the unearned income Medicare contribution tax or any considerations with respect to any withholding required pursuant to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance
provisions of the HIRE Act of 2010 (including the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and intergovernmental agreements entered in connection therewith). Match Group believes that it is not,
and it does not anticipate becoming (and the following discussion assumes that it is not and will not become), a "United States real property holding corporation" within the meaning of
Section 897(c)(2) of the Code, but no assurances can be given with respect thereto.
This
discussion addresses only shares of Match Group Common Stock held as a "capital asset" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for
investment) and does not address U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to holders that may be subject to special tax rules, including, for example, banks or other financial institutions,
mutual funds, dealers or brokers in securities, traders in securities that elect to apply a mark-to-market method of accounting, insurance companies, tax-exempt entities, governmental agencies or
instrumentalities, entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or other flow-through entities (or investors therein), holders subject to the alternative
minimum tax, certain former citizens or residents of the United States, holders that hold Match Group Common Stock as part of a "hedge," "straddle," "constructive sale," "conversion transaction" or
other integrated transaction, holders that own or have owned (directly, indirectly or constructively) 5% or more of the Match Group Common Stock outstanding (by vote or value), persons required to
accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to the notes as a result of such income being recognized on an "applicable financial statement," "controlled foreign corporations,"
and "passive foreign investment companies."
THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY, AND IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF ALL TAX CONSEQUENCES RELATING TO THE
OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF MATCH GROUP COMMON STOCK. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF MATCH
GROUP COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAX LAWS, ANY TAX TREATY AND ANY CHANGES (OR PROPOSED CHANGES) THERETO. THIS DISCUSSION SHOULD
NOT BE CONSTRUED AS LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE FOR ANY PARTICULAR PERSON.
For
purposes of this discussion, the term "Non-U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of shares of Match Group Common Stock that is not,
for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
-
-
an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source;
-
-
a trust (a) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more
United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a
United States person; or
-
-
a partnership (or an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership).
If
a partnership (or any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds shares of Match Group Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax
treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend on the status of such partner and the activities of such partnership. Such a partnership and any partners in such a partnership should
consult their own tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of shares of Match Group Common Stock.
Distributions on Match Group Common Stock.
Any
distributions paid to a Non-U.S. Holder with respect to shares of Match Group Common Stock generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate
(or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, provided that such Non-U.S. Holder timely provides the applicable withholding agent with a properly completed and executed
applicable IRS Form W-8 and satisfies any other applicable requirements), unless such distributions are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder's conduct of a trade or business within
the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States).
Distributions
paid to a Non-U.S. Holder that are effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder's conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an
applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax,
provided that such Non-U.S. Holder timely provides the applicable withholding agent with a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI and satisfies any other applicable requirements.
Instead, such payments generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates in the same manner as if such Non-U.S. Holder were a "United States
person" (within the meaning of the Code). A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation may be subject to an additional "branch profits tax" at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an
applicable income tax treaty) with respect to such payments, subject to certain adjustments.
Non-U.S.
Holders eligible for an exemption from or reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld
by timely filing an appropriate claim with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under an applicable income tax treaty and the
requirements for claiming any such benefits.

Sale, Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Match Group Common Stock.
Subject
to the discussion below under "Information Reporting and Backup Withholding," a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal
income or withholding tax on any gain realized upon the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of Match Group Common Stock unless:
-
-
such gain is effectively connected with such Non-U.S. Holder's conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an
applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such Non-U.S. Holder in the United States); or
-
-
such Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition
and certain other conditions are met.
Gain
described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates in the same manner as if such
Non-U.S. Holder were a "United States person" (within the meaning of the Code). A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation may be subject to an additional "branch profits tax" at a rate of 30% (or such
lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) with respect to such gain, subject to certain adjustments.
A
Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable
income tax treaty) on any gain realized, which gain may be offset by U.S.-source capital losses, if any, of the Non-U.S. Holder.
The
proceeds received by a Non-U.S. Holder from a redemption of shares of Match Group Common Stock by Match Group may be treated as a distribution under certain circumstances. Non-U.S.
Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect of any such redemption.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
In general, a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to information reporting with respect to payments of dividends in respect of Match Group Common
Stock. These reporting requirements apply regardless of whether withholding is reduced or eliminated by an applicable income tax treaty. Copies of this information may also be made available to tax
authorities in the country in which a Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established, pursuant to the provisions of a specific tax treaty or agreement. U.S. federal backup withholding (currently, at a rate
of 24%) will be imposed on certain payments to Non-U.S. Holders that fail to furnish the information required under U.S. information reporting rules. Such payments to a Non-U.S. Holder generally will
be exempt from backup withholding if such Non-U.S. Holder timely provides the applicable withholding agent with a properly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or otherwise establishes an
exemption.
Under
applicable Treasury Regulations, the payment of proceeds from the disposition of Match Group Common Stock by a Non-U.S. Holder effected at a U.S. office of a broker generally will
be subject to information reporting and backup withholding, unless such Non-U.S. Holder timely provides a properly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 certifying such Non-U.S. Holder's non-U.S.
status or such Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. The payment of proceeds from the disposition of Match Group Common Stock by a Non-U.S. Holder effected at a non-U.S. office of a U.S.
broker or a non-U.S. broker with certain specified U.S. connections generally will be subject to information reporting (but not backup withholding, unless the applicable withholding agent has actual
knowledge or reason to know that such Non-U.S. Holder is a "United States person" within the meaning of the Code) unless such Non-U.S. Holder timely provides a properly executed applicable IRS
Form W-8 certifying such Non-U.S. Holder's non-U.S. status or such Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption.
Backup
withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder's U.S.
federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of these rules
to their particular circumstances.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
This prospectus supplement relates to the offer and sale from time to time of shares of Match Group Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.
Any shares of Match Group Common Stock received by the Selling Stockholders upon exchange of their Notes will be "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the
Securities Act and will contain a legend setting out such restriction and will be segregated until such time as they are sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement
forms a part. Match Group is registering the resale of shares of Match Group Common Stock for sale to provide the holders thereof with freely tradable securities, but such shares will not
become freely tradable until sold pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part. There can be no assurance that the Selling Stockholders will sell any
or all of the shares of Match Group Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part.
The
Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of the shares of Match Group Common Stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby directly or indirectly through
one or more broker-dealers or agents. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible for any agent's commissions. The Match Group Common Stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at
prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods
when selling shares of Match Group Common Stock:
-
-
on the NASDAQ or any other national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of
sale;
-
-
in the over-the-counter market;
-
-
in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;
-
-
through the writing of options, swaps or derivatives whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;
-
-
through ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
-
-
through block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
principal to facilitate the transaction;
-
-
through purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its account;
-
-
through an exchange or market distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange or market;
-
-
in privately negotiated transactions;
-
-
through the settlement of short sales;
-
-
through broker-dealers that may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
-
-
through a combination of any such methods of sale; and
-
-
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The
Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus supplement.
S-21
Table of Contents
In
addition, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers who may engage in short sales of shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume
with the Selling Stockholders. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares short and deliver the shares to close out such short position.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. If the Selling Stockholders effect such transactions through
underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Stockholders or
commissions from purchasers of the shares of Match Group Common Stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to
particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be less than or in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved).
The
Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in
connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
The
Selling Stockholders will be subject to the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of
Match Group Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders and their affiliates.
Pursuant
to the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, Match Group has agreed to bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the shares of
Match Group Common Stock covered by this prospectus supplement. These may include, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, NASDAQ listing fees, fees and expenses of Match Group's counsel
and accountants, and blue sky fees and expenses. Match Group has also agreed to reimburse the relevant Selling Stockholders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm or counsel per series
of Notes (which shall be a nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities matters designated by the holders of at least 51% of the Match Group Common Stock registered under this prospectus
supplement) to act as counsel for the Selling Stockholders in connection therewith. However, Match Group does not have any obligation to pay any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions
attributable to the sale of such Match Group Common Stock, or any fees and expenses of any broker-dealer or other financial intermediary engaged by any Selling Stockholder. Match Group has also agreed
to indemnify each Selling Stockholder and their officers and directors, and any person who controls such
Selling Stockholder, against certain losses, claims, damages and expenses arising under the applicable securities laws.

Table of Contents
Match
Group's authorized capital stock consists of 1,600,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.
As of July 31, 2020, there were 260,016,024 shares of common stock outstanding. No shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding as of July 31, 2020.
Common Stock
The issued and outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common stock that we may issue in the future will be, validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable. Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to share equally, share for share, if dividends
are declared on our common stock, whether payable in cash, property or our securities. The shares of common stock are not convertible and the holders thereof have no preemptive or subscription rights
to purchase any of our securities. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share equally, share for share, in our assets which are
legally available for distribution, after payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding. Each outstanding
share of common stock is entitled to one vote in the election of each director in the class that is up for election in that year and all other matters voted on generally by all stockholders. There is
no cumulative voting. Except as otherwise required by law or the amended certificate, the holders of common stock vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders.
Our
common stock is listed on NASDAQ under the symbol "MTCH."
Preferred Stock
We may issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series and may, at the time of issuance, determine the powers, rights, preferences,
qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each series. Satisfaction of any dividend preferences of outstanding shares of preferred stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the
payment of dividends on shares of common stock. Holders of shares of preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our
company before any payment is made to the holders of shares of common stock. In some circumstances, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may render more difficult or tend to discourage a merger,
tender offer or proxy contest, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our securities or the removal of incumbent management. Upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the total
number of directors then in office, our board of directors, without stockholder approval, may issue shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect the holders
of shares of common stock. The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock or any class or series thereof may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of Match Group, Inc. entitled to vote.
We
have no current intention to issue any of our unissued, authorized shares of preferred stock. However, the issuance of any shares of preferred stock in the future could adversely
affect the rights of the holders of common stock.
DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
The debt securities will be our direct unsecured general obligations. The debt securities will be either senior debt securities or subordinated
debt securities. The debt securities will be issued under one or more separate indentures between us and the applicable trustee. Senior debt securities will be issued under a senior indenture.
Subordinated debt securities will be issued under a subordinated
2
Table of Contents
indenture.
Each of the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture is referred to as an indenture. The material terms of any indenture will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.
DESCRIPTION OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS
We may issue purchase contracts for the purchase or sale of:
-
-
debt or equity securities issued by us or securities of third parties, a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or
any combination of the above as specified in the applicable prospectus supplement;
-
-
currencies; or
-
-
commodities.
Each
purchase contract will entitle or obligate the holder thereof to purchase or sell, and obligate us to sell or purchase, on specified dates, such securities, currencies or
commodities at a specified purchase price, which may be based on a formula, all as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. We may, however, satisfy our obligations, if any, with respect to
any purchase contract by delivering the cash value of such purchase contract or the cash value of the property otherwise deliverable or, in the case of purchase contracts on underlying currencies, by
delivering the underlying currencies, as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will also specify the methods by which the holders may purchase or sell
such securities, currencies or commodities and any acceleration, cancellation or termination provisions or other provisions relating to the settlement of a purchase contract.
The
purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to the holders thereof or vice versa, which payments may be deferred to the extent set forth in the applicable prospectus
supplement, and those payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The purchase contracts may require the holders thereof to secure their obligations in a specified manner to be described in
the applicable prospectus supplement. Alternatively, purchase contracts may require holders to satisfy their obligations thereunder when the purchase contracts are issued. Our obligation to settle
such pre-paid purchase contracts on the relevant settlement date may constitute indebtedness. Accordingly, pre-paid purchase contracts will be issued under either the senior indenture or the
subordinated indenture.
DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS
We may issue warrants to purchase our debt or equity securities or securities of third parties or other rights, including rights to receive
payment in cash or securities based on the value, rate or price of one or more specified commodities, currencies, securities or indices, or any combination of the foregoing. Warrants may be issued
independently or together with any other securities and may be attached to, or separate from, such securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement to be entered
into between us and a warrant agent. The terms of any warrants to be issued and a description of the material provisions of the applicable warrant agreement will be set forth in the applicable
prospectus supplement. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants will be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of any of the following
events: any stock dividend, stock subdivision, stock split-up, stock reverse-split and stock combination, and any capital reclassification in connection with a reorganization or consolidation or
merger.

Table of Contents
DESCRIPTION OF UNITS
As specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may issue units consisting of one or more purchase contracts, warrants, debt
securities, shares of preferred stock, shares of common stock or any combination of such securities. The applicable supplement will describe:
-
-
the terms of the units and of the purchase contracts, warrants, debt securities, preferred stock and common stock comprising the units,
including whether and under what circumstances the securities comprising the units may be traded separately;
-
-
if applicable, a discussion of any material United States federal income tax considerations;
-
-
a description of the terms of any unit agreement governing the units; and
-
-
a description of the provisions for the payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units.
FORMS OF SECURITIES
Each debt security, warrant and unit will be represented either by a certificate issued in definitive form to a particular investor or by one or
more global securities representing the entire issuance of securities. Certificated securities will be issued in definitive form and global securities will be issued in registered form. Definitive
securities name you or your nominee as the owner of the security, and in order to transfer or exchange these securities or to receive payments other than interest or other interim payments, you or
your nominee must physically deliver the securities to the trustee, registrar, paying agent or other agent, as applicable. Global securities name a depositary or its nominee as the owner of the debt
securities, warrants or units represented by these global securities. The depositary maintains a computerized system that will reflect each investor's beneficial ownership of the securities through an
account maintained by the investor with its broker/dealer, bank, trust company or other representative, as we explain more fully below.
Registered Global Securities
We may issue the registered debt securities, warrants and units in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that will be
deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more registered global
securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by registered global
securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depositary
for the registered global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of the depositary or those nominees.
If
not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a registered global security will be described in the
prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements.
Ownership
of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the depositary or persons that may hold
interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants' accounts with the
respective principal or face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate
the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records
maintained by the depositary, with respect to
4
Table of Contents
interests
of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities
take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities.
So
long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner
or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Except as described below, owners of
beneficial interests in a registered global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the registered global
security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities
under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary
for that registered global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under
the applicable indenture, warrant agreement, guaranteed trust preferred security or unit agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an
owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global security desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit
agreement, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would
authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.
Principal,
premium, if any, and interest payments on debt securities, and any payments to holders with respect to warrants or units, represented by a registered global security
registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of Match Group,
the trustees, the warrant agents, the unit agents or any other agent of Match Group, agent of the trustees or agent of the warrant agents or unit agents will have any responsibility or liability for
any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to
those beneficial ownership interests.
We
expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium, interest or other distribution of
underlying securities or other property to holders on that registered global security, will immediately credit participants' accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests
in that registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security held
through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered
in "street name," and will be the responsibility of those participants.
If
the depositary for any of these securities represented by a registered global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and a successor depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us within
90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the registered global security that had been held by the depositary. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange
for a registered global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the relevant trustee, warrant agent, unit agent or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is
expected that the depositary's instructions will be
5
Table of Contents
based
upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global security that had been held by the depositary.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Match Group and/or the selling security holders, if applicable, may sell the securities in one or more of the following ways (or in any
combination) from time to time:
-
-
through underwriters or dealers;
-
-
directly to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser;
-
-
through agents;
-
-
through a combination of any such methods; or
-
-
through any other methods described in a prospectus supplement.
The

Any
initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
If
we and/or the selling security holders, if applicable, use underwriters in the sale, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from
time to time in one or more transactions, including:
-
-
negotiated transactions,

-
at a fixed public offering price or prices, which may be changed,
-

Unless
otherwise stated in a prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase any securities will be conditioned on customary closing conditions and the
underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of such series of securities, if any are purchased.
We
and/or the selling security holders, if applicable, may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or

payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth
any commissions we pay for solicitation of these contracts.
Underwriters
and agents may be entitled under agreements entered into with Match Group and/or the selling security holders, if applicable, to indemnification by Match Group and/or the
selling security holders, if applicable, against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribution with respect to payments which the
underwriters or agents may be required to make. Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for Match Group and its affiliates in the ordinary course

Each
series of securities will be a new issue of securities and will have no established trading market other than the common stock, which is listed on NASDAQ. Any underwriters to whom
securities are sold for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without
notice. The securities, other than the common stock, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange.

INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus and Match Group's financial statements and other documents incorporated by reference include forward-looking statements, as that
term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding future events and the future results of Match Group, Inc. that are based
7
Table of Contents
on
our current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the industries in which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. Words such as "expect," "anticipate,"
"target," "goal," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "estimate," "will," "likely," "may," "designed," "would," "future," "can," "could" and other similar expressions that are predictions,
indicate future events and trends or which do not relate to historical matters are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.
These
statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs and involve a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. We believe that these risks
and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and our
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Actual results could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements for a variety of
reasons, including, among others: competition, our ability to maintain user rates on our higher monetizing dating products, our ability to attract users to our dating products through cost-effective
marketing and related efforts, foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations, our ability to distribute our dating products through third parties and offset related fees, the integrity and scalability of our systems and infrastructure (and those of third parties)
and our ability to adapt ours to changes in a timely and cost-effective manner, our ability to protect our systems from cyberattacks and to protect personal and confidential user information, risks
relating to certain of our international operations and acquisitions, certain risks relating to our relationship with IAC/InterActiveCorp (formerly known as IAC Holdings, Inc.) post-separation,
the impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 coronavirus, and the risks inherent in separating Match Group from IAC/InterActiveCorp, including uncertainties related to, among other things, the costs and
expected benefits of the proposed transaction, any litigation arising out of or relating to the transaction, the expected tax treatment of the transaction, and the impact of the transaction on the
businesses of Match Group. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read with the other cautionary statements contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus.
Although
we base these forward-looking statements on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested
by the forward-looking statements contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development
of the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, those results or developments may not be
indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.
Given
these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements that we make in this prospectus
speak only as of the date of those statements or, in the case of statements incorporated by reference, as of the date of the incorporated document, and we undertake no obligation to update those
statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of those statements to reflect future events or developments. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not
intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
