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

(b)

On February 8, 2012, Travis McElfresh and InfoSpace, Inc. agreed that Mr. McElfresh will no longer be employed as the Chief Technology Officer of InfoSpace, effective March 23, 2012. In connection with his departure, Mr. McElfresh will be treated in a manner consistent with the terms set forth in Section 6(b) of his Employment Agreement dated September 20, 2010 (a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2011), provided that the conditions set forth therein, including the execution of a release of claims, are satisfied.

(e)

On February 9, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the InfoSpace Board of Directors approved the 2012 Executive Bonus Plan. This plan provides for annual performance-based cash bonuses to the Company’s executive officers. The target bonus amount for individual executive officers varies, and is between 50% and 100% of each executive’s base salary.

The available bonus for each executive is based on a combination of (a) the Company’s achievement of certain specified financial performance measures and (b) the individual performance of each executive and the discretion of the CEO (or, in the case of CEO bonus, the discretion of the Compensation Committee). For the Company financial performance measures, the specific measures vary by executive, but may include Company Revenue (as defined in the plan), Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the plan), and/or Adjusted Search EBIDTA (as defined in the plan). 70% of the bonus payout is based on the Company financial performance measures and 30% is based on the individual performance/discretionary element.

The performance targets established for this bonus plan correspond to the operating plan targets approved by the InfoSpace Board of Directors. Available bonuses range from zero to 150% of the target bonus for each component.

The foregoing description of the 2012 Executive Bonus Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of this plan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
