Item 2.05

COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES

As part of its ongoing efforts to improve operating efficiencies, on August 23, 2006, InfoSpace, Inc. committed to closing its Hamburg, Germany facility and eliminating its current staffing, approximately 40 positions, mostly during the third and fourth quarters of 2006. On September 6, 2006, InfoSpace notified such employees that their positions would be eliminated.

InfoSpace expects to record a charge, estimated at approximately $900,000 related to these actions, in the third quarter of 2006. The Company estimates that approximately $350,000 of this charge relates to cash expenditures for severance of terminated employees, and approximately $550,000 relates to non-cash asset impairment charges related to leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment and other assets.
