Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
     On November 5, 2010, QuinStreet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“QuinStreet”), consummated an acquisition pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), by and among QuinStreet, Car Insurance.com, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Target”), Car Insurance Agency, Inc., a Florida corporation, Car Insurance Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation, and CarInsurance.com, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (together with Target, the “Target Entities”), and Lloyd Register IV, Lloyd Register III, David Fitzgerald, Timothy Register, Randy Horowitz and Erick Pace, each a stockholder of the Target Entities (the “Sellers”). The closing of the transaction occurred concurrently with the execution of the Stock Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, as of November 5, 2010, all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Target Entities were exchanged for the purchase price of $49,655,000.00, subject to certain deductions and adjustments as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. As a result of the transaction, each of the Target Entities became wholly owned subsidiaries of QuinStreet. The Target Entities operate www.carinsurance.com, a website for consumers to research auto insurance information, receive and compare quotes from leading auto insurance carriers, and connect directly with insurance carriers and agencies. The Stock Purchase Agreement contained such representations, warranties, obligations and conditions as are customary for transactions of the type governed by such agreements. In addition, the Stock Purchase Agreement contained four-year non-competition and non-solicitation covenants by the Sellers.
