shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("IAC Common Stock"), of
InterActiveCorp ("IAC"), formerly USA Interactive, of which 38,146,368 shares
IAC Common Stock were originally registered on IAC's Registration Statement
on Form S-4 (File No. 333-104973), as amended, initially filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on May 5, 2003, to which this Amendment
relates (the "Registration Statement").
(2) Not applicable. All filing fees payable in connection with the registration

EXPLANATORY NOTE
InterActiveCorp ("IAC" or the "Registrant"), formerly USA Interactive,
hereby amends its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the "Form S-4") by filing
this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 on Form S-8 to Form S-4 (this "Amendment")
relating to up to (i) 27,195,924 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share, of IAC ("IAC Common Stock") issuable by IAC in connection with the
exercise of options that have been granted under the Expedia, Inc. 1999 Amended
and Restated Stock Option Plan ("1999 Stock Plan"), (ii) 96,939 shares of IAC
Common Stock issuable by IAC in connection with the exercise of options that
have been granted under the Expedia, Inc. 1999 Stock Option Plan for
Non-Employee Directors ("Directors' Plan"), which, along with options issuable
under the 1999 Stock Plan, became options to purchase shares of IAC Common Stock
as described below, and (iii) 10,853,505 shares of IAC Common Stock issuable by
IAC in connection with the Amended and Restated 2001 Stock Plan ("2001 Plan"
and, together with the 1999 Stock Plan and Directors' Plan, the "Plans"). All of
such shares of IAC Common Stock were originally registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to the Form S-4.
On August 8, 2003, Equinox Merger Corp., a Washington corporation and a
wholly owned subsidiary of IAC, merged (the "Merger") with and into Expedia,
Inc., a Washington corporation ("Expedia"), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan
of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of March 18, 2003, by and among USA
Interactive (now IAC), Equinox Merger Corp. and Expedia. At the time the Merger
was consummated (the "Effective Time"), among other things, each issued and
outstanding share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Expedia
("Expedia Common Stock"), other than shares held by IAC or Expedia, was
converted into 1.93875 (the "Exchange Ratio") shares of IAC Common Stock.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the outstanding stock options and restricted
stock units granted under the Plans are no longer exercisable for or to be
settled in shares of Expedia Common Stock but, instead, are exercisable for or
to be settled in shares of IAC Common Stock based on the Exchange Ratio, as set
forth in the Merger Agreement.

August 5, 2003, August 8, 2003 and August 11, 2003 (in each case other than

(d) Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4 (file no.
333-104973) filed on June 9, 2003 (only with respect to pro forma financial

All documents subsequently filed by IAC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c),
14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or
which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof
from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained herein or in
a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall
be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration
Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently
filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein
modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or
superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to
constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
The legality of the shares of IAC Common Stock to be issued in connection
with the Plans were passed upon for IAC by Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, New
York, New York.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, limits,
to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law, the personal liability of
directors for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as a
director. The Registrant's Amended and Restated By-Laws provide that the
directors and officers (and legal representatives of such directors and
officers) will be indemnified to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware
General Corporation Law with respect to third-party actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings provided that any such person has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law
described below. The Registrant's Amended and Restated By-Laws further provide
that directors and officers (and legal representatives of such directors and
officers) will be indemnified with respect to actions or suits initiated by such
person only if such action was first approved by the board of directors. The
Registrant's Amended and Restated By-Laws allow the Registrant to pay all
expenses incurred by a director or officer (or legal representatives of such
directors or officers) in defending any proceeding in which the
2
scope of the indemnification provisions as such expenses are incurred in advance
of its final disposition, upon an undertaking by such party to repay such
expenses, if it is ultimately determined that such party was not entitled to
indemnity by the Registrant. From time to time, officers and directors may be
provided with indemnification agreements that are consistent with the foregoing
provisions and, to the extent such officers and directors serve as executive
officers or directors of subsidiaries of the Registrant, consistent with the
indemnification provisions of the charter documents of such subsidiaries. The
Registrant has policies of directors' and officers' liability insurance which
insure directors and officers against the costs of defense, settlement and/or
payment of judgment under certain circumstances. The Registrant believes that
these agreements and arrangements are necessary to attract and retain qualified
persons as directors and officers.
Section 145 of the General Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a
corporation may indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent who was or is a
party, or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact
that he was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or was
serving at the request of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action if he acted in good faith and in
a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests
of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED
Not Applicable.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS
See Exhibit Index.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment hereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in this Registration Statement;
3
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in this
Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1) (ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Securities and Exchange Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in
this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA
FIDE offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
