On March 15, 2016, the Board of Directors of Angie’s List, Inc. (the “Company”) elected Mike Sands to its Board as an independent, Class II director to serve until the expiration of the Class II term at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders, or until his earlier death, disqualification, resignation or removal. The Board was also expanded to 12 directorships.

Mr. Sands will be compensated for his service on the Board pursuant to the Company's non-employee director compensation practices (each pro-rated for any partial year of service). Further, Mr. Sands will receive an annual equity grant pursuant to the Company's Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan in an amount consistent with the awards granted annually to non-employee directors. Mr. Sands will also enter into the Company's standard form of director indemnification agreement.

A copy of the press release announcing the election of Mr. Sands is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
