(1) Final average pay is defined as the highest consecutive five-year average “pay,” as defined in the pension plan, during the 10-year period ending December 31, 2001.

The above table sets forth estimated annual benefits upon retirement (assuming such benefits will be paid in the form of a life annuity) at various compensation levels and years of service under First American’s pension plans. Subject to certain conditions of age and tenure, all regular employees of First American and its participating subsidiaries were eligible to join First American’s qualified pension plan until December 31, 2001. No employees are eligible to join the pension plan after that date.

In order to participate, during plan years ending on or prior to December 31, 1994, an employee was required to contribute 1½% of pay (i.e., salary, plus cash bonuses, commissions and other pay) to the plan. As a result of amendments to the pension plan that were adopted in 1994, during plan years commencing after December 31, 1994, an employee was not required to contribute to the plan in order to participate. As a result of further amendments, which were adopted in 2000, the pension plan will not accept new participants after December 31, 2001.

A participant generally vests in his accrued benefit attributable to First American’s contributions upon the completion of three years of service or, if earlier, the attainment of normal retirement age while an employee.

9

Normal retirement age is defined under the plan as the later of the employee’s attainment of age 65 or his third anniversary of participation in the plan.

Upon retirement at normal retirement age, an employee receives full monthly benefits, which are equal, when calculated as a life annuity:

• for years of credited service with First American and its subsidiaries (including First Advantage and its subsidiaries) as of December 31, 1994, to 1% of the first $1,000 and 1¼% of remaining final average pay (i.e., the average of the monthly “pay,” as defined above, during the five highest paid consecutive calendar years out of the last ten years prior to retirement) times the number of years of credited service as of December 31, 1994; and

• for years of credited service with First American and its subsidiaries (including First Advantage and its subsidiaries) after December 31, 1994, to ¾% of the first $1,000 and 1% of the remaining final average pay times the number of years of credited service subsequent to December 31, 1994.

• Effective December 31, 2000, First American’s pension plan was amended to exclude from the calculation of benefits (a) any pay earned after December 31, 2001, and (b) any service earned after December 31, 2005.

• Effective December 31, 2002, First American’s pension plan was amended to reduce the rate at which future benefits accrue for participants who had not yet attained age 50 by spreading the accrual of the benefit that would have accrued during 2003 – 2005 over extended periods ranging from 5 to 20 years, depending on the participant’s age as of December 31, 2002.

An employee with at least three years of participation in the plan may elect to retire after attaining age 55, but prior to age 65, and receive reduced benefits.

First American funds the plan based on actuarial determinations of the amount required to provide the stated benefits. The table is based on retirement at age 65 or later, with contributions having been made by the employee in each year of credited service prior to 1995. The benefits are not subject to deduction for Social Security payments or any other offsets. Currently, John Long, John Lamson and Evan Barnett have 15½ , 8½ and 7½ years, respectively, of credited service.

The compensation levels shown in the table above are less than those set forth in the summary compensation table because the federal tax law limits the maximum amount of pay that may be considered in determining benefits under the tax-qualified pension plan, and First American pension restoration plan, which is described below, does not make up for these limits for pay exceeding $275,000. The limit on pay that could be recognized by tax-qualified retirement plans was $200,000 in 1989. This amount was adjusted for inflation for each year through 1993, when the limit was $235,840. In 1993, this limit was decreased to $150,000 for plan years beginning in 1994. The $150,000 limit has been adjusted for inflation and was increased to $160,000 as of January 1, 1997, and to $170,000 as of January 1, 2000. The highest final average pay that could be considered in determining benefits accruing under the pension plan before 1994 is $219,224, and since First American’s pension plan does not consider pay earned after December 31, 2001, the highest final average pay that can be considered in determining benefits accruing after 1993 is $164,000.

During 1996, First American adopted its pension restoration plan. This plan is an unfunded, nonqualified plan designed to make up for the benefit accruals that are restricted by the indexed $150,000 pay limit. However, in order to limit its expense, the pension restoration plan does not make up for benefit accruals on compensation exceeding $275,000. The pension restoration plan also makes up for benefits that cannot be paid from First American’s pension plan because of limitations imposed by the federal tax laws. Vesting of benefits payable to an employee under First American’s pension restoration plan occurs at the same time that vesting occurs for that employee in his or her pension plan benefits. The pension restoration plan is effective as of January 1, 1994, but only covers selected pension plan participants who were employees of First American or its participating subsidiaries on that date. As noted above, January 1, 1994, is the date as of which the pay limit for the pension plan was reduced from $235,840 to $150,000. The pension restoration plan excludes pay earned after December 31, 2001, as does the pension plan.

Supplemental Benefit Plan. First American maintains an executive supplemental benefit plan that it believes assists in attracting and retaining highly qualified individuals for upper management positions. The plan provides retirement benefits for, and pre-retirement death benefits with respect to, certain key management personnel selected by First American’s board of directors, and may include executives of First Advantage or its subsidiaries at and to the extent selected by First American’s board of directors. Under the plan, upon retirement at normal retirement date (the later of age 65 or, unless waived by First American’s board of directors, completion of ten years of service), a participant receives a joint life and 50% survivor annuity benefit equal to 35% of “final average compensation.” “Final average compensation” is the average annual compensation, composed of base salary, plus cash and stock bonuses, for those three calendar years out of the last ten years of employment preceding retirement in which such compensation is the highest.

The benefit is reduced by 5% for each year prior to normal retirement date in which retirement occurs and, until age 70, increased by 5% (compounded in order to approximate the annuitized value of the benefit had retirement occurred at age 65) for each year after such date in which retirement occurs. With respect to such postponed retirement, the plan takes into account covered compensation received until age 70, so that the retirement benefit of an executive who retires after normal retirement date is equal to the greater of the annuitized benefit or the benefit calculated using final average compensation until age 70.

To be eligible to receive benefits under the plan, a participant must be at least age 55, have been an employee of First American, or an employee of one of its subsidiaries (including First Advantage and its subsidiaries), for at least ten years and, unless waived by First American’s board of directors, covered by the plan for at least five years. A pre-retirement death benefit is provided consisting of ten annual payments, each of which equals 50% of final average compensation. Vesting of rights under the plan is accelerated in the event of a change in control (as defined in the plan) of First American.

The supplemental benefit plan is unfunded and unsecured. First American purchases insurance, of which First American is the owner and beneficiary, on the lives of the participants in the plan. This insurance is designed to recover, over the life of the plan, First American’s costs incurred with respect to the plan. Currently, only John Long has been selected by the First American board to participate in the plan. No amounts are payable by First Advantage in connection with this plan.

Deferred Compensation Plan. First American’s deferred compensation plan offers to a select group of management and highly compensated employees of First American and its subsidiaries, including First Advantage and its subsidiaries, the opportunity to elect to defer portions of salary, commissions and bonuses. A committee appointed by First American’s board is responsible for administering the plan, which became effective January 1, 1998. First American maintains a deferral account for each participating employee on a fully vested basis for all deferrals. Participants can choose to have their cash benefits paid in one lump sum or in quarterly payments upon termination of employment or death. Subject to the terms and conditions of the plan, participants also may elect to schedule in-service withdrawals of deferred compensation and the earnings and losses attributable thereto. For all participants who joined the plan prior to December 31, 2001, the plan provides a pre-retirement life insurance benefit equal to the lesser of 15 times the amount deferred in a participant’s first year of participation or $2.0 million. The life insurance benefit is reduced beginning at age 61 by 20% per year. Participants who join the plan after December 31, 2001, are not eligible for any life insurance benefit. First American pays a portion of the cost of such life insurance benefits. John Long, John Lamson and Akshaya Mehta participate in this plan. The plan is unfunded and unsecured.

Change of Control Arrangements

First American’s supplemental benefit plan calls for accelerated vesting of all benefits in the event of a change in control of First American. The First Advantage Corporation 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan calls for accelerated vesting of all awards in the event of a change in control of First American or First Advantage.

A “change in control” for purposes of First American’s supplemental benefit plan means any one of the following:

• a merger or consolidation in which shareholders of First American end up owning less than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving entity;

11

• the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of First American’s assets or the complete liquidation or dissolution of First American;

• a change in the composition of First American’s board over a two-year period without the consent of a majority of the directors in office at the beginning of the two-year period; or

• the acquisition or accumulation by certain persons of at least 25% of First American’s voting securities.

A “change in control” for purposes of the First Advantage Corporation 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan means any one of the following:

• an acquisition in one transaction or a series of transactions by any person which results in such person owning more than 50% of the voting power in First American (other than directly from First American);

• an acquisition in one transaction or a series of transactions by any person (other than First American) which results in such person owning more than 50% of the voting power in First Advantage (other than directly from First Advantage);

• a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving First American, unless (a) shareholders of First American end up owning more than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving entity, (b) a majority of the board of First American prior to the transaction constitutes at least a majority of the board of the surviving entity, and (c) First American and its affiliates own collectively 50% or more of the voting power of the surviving entity;

• a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving First Advantage, unless (a) stockholders of First Advantage end up owning more than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving entity, (b) a majority of the board of First Advantage prior to the transaction constitutes at least a majority of the board of the surviving entity, and (c) First Advantage and its affiliates own collectively 50% or more of the voting power of the surviving entity;

• the composition of First American’s board is changed without the consent of a majority of the directors in office;

• the composition of First Advantage’s board is changed without the consent of a majority of the directors in office;

�� • any approval of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the First American or First Advantage;

• any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets or business of First American to any person (other than a transfer to a company owned by First American or First Advantage or the distribution to First American’s stockholders of the stock or any other assets of a company owned by First American or First Advantage); or

• any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets or business of First Advantage to any person (other than a transfer to a company owned by First American or First Advantage, the distribution to First Advantage’s stockholders of the stock or any other assets of a company owned by First American or First Advantage, or a transfer or distribution to First American or its affiliates).

Employment Contract

First Advantage entered into an employment agreement with David Wachtel, chief technology officer dated August 4, 2003. The agreement had a term ending December 31, 2005 and included a base salary of $250,000 per year and a minimum bonus of $100,000 for 2003. The agreement provided for bonuses to be paid for calendar years

12

2004 and 2005 in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) 1.0% of pre-tax net income of First Advantage (as defined in the employment agreement) for the applicable year and (b) $250,000. Additional bonuses would be paid for calendar years 2004 and 2005 in an amount equal to 0.5% of pre-tax net income of First Advantage in excess of $25,000,000, if any. Mr. Wachtel was also granted an option to acquire 40,000 shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price of $16.66 per share under the terms of the employment agreement. Terms of the grant are otherwise the same as provided in our incentive compensation plan. The agreement provided that if Mr. Wachtel is terminated on or prior to December 31, 2005 for cause (as defined in the employment agreement) or retires for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement), he would receive salary for up to one-year, any accrued but unpaid bonus, and reimbursement of health insurance premiums for up to one year or until he obtains replacement health insurance. The agreement further provided that if Mr. Wachtel became disabled (as defined in the employment agreement), he would receive base salary for six-months in addition to any insurance benefits he may be eligible to receive. If Mr. Wachtel is terminated or retires for any other reason, he would receive only health insurance premiums required by applicable law. Following 2005, if Mr. Wachtel is terminated for any reason other than death, disability or for cause, he would receive base salary for one year and a bonus equal to the pro rata portion of the bonus he received for the full calendar year ended immediately preceding the date of termination. The employment agreement also calls for Mr. Wachtel to receive a car allowance of $900 per month and other benefits given to similarly situated executives.

On November 30, 2004, David Wachtel terminated his employment with First Advantage pursuant to the terms of the employment agreement. Under the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Wachtel received his base salary until December 31, 2005, payment of a bonus equal to the bonus for 2003 in the amount of $100,000, and he will receive reimbursement of health premiums required by applicable law until December 31, 2005. Additionally, Mr. Wachtel had ninety (90) days from the date of his termination to exercise options to purchase 73,000 shares of Class A common stock and has one (1) year from the date of the termination of his employment to exercise his option to purchase 13,334 shares of Class A common stock.

On May 3, 2005, First Advantage entered into an employment agreement with Beth Henricks, President of the tax consulting services division. The agreement has an initial term ending on January 2007, but automatically renews unless either party provides 30 days prior written notice. The agreement includes a base salary of $240,000 and an annual bonus payable on or before the last day of February following the end of each fiscal year of the employment term. The bonus is calculated as the amount equal to the greater of: $160,000 or the product of (A) operating earnings for each fiscal year of the employment term, and 5% of the first $5,000,000 of operating earnings and 4% thereafter. Operating Earnings is defined as the operating earnings of the employer, before taxes, for such period, determined in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied consistently and further applied in accordance with the guidance of the staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition to salary and bonus, Ms. Henricks received an option to purchase 25,000 shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price of $18.08. Terms of that grant are otherwise the same as provided in our incentive compensation plan. Ms. Henricks also receives a car allowance and other benefits given to similarly situated executives.

The agreement also provides that in the event of termination of employment without cause (as defined in the employment agreement) and termination for good reason (as defined in the employment agreement), Ms. Henricks shall be entitled to receive wages in lieu of notice in an amount equivalent to the greater of: $330,000, bonus (pro-rated as to the date of termination) and fringe benefits for the period from the termination date to the end of the then current employment term; or six (6) months of salary (calculated at $330,000 on an annualized basis), bonus (pro-rated as to the date of termination) and fringe benefits for a period of six (6) months.

Director Compensation

Each director who is not also an employee of First Advantage receives a yearly fee of $20,000 plus fees of $1,000 for each board meeting attended and $500 for each board committee meeting attended. Non-employee directors receive an option to acquire 5,000 shares of our Class A common stock upon election to the board. Non-employee directors who have served for six months or more also will receive an option to acquire 2,500 shares of our Class A common stock upon reelection. In all cases, the exercise price of options is the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the date of grant. In addition, First Advantage will reimburse the directors for travel

13

expenses incurred in connection with their duties as directors of First Advantage. Employees of our company who also are directors receive no additional compensation for their service on the board or on any board committee.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Item 13Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Our company effectively commenced operations on June 5, 2003 with our acquisition of First American’s screening technology division and US SEARCH. As consideration for the acquisitions, we issued on or about June 5, 2003 100% of our outstanding Class B common stock to First American and 100% of our Class A common stock to former stockholders of US SEARCH. Each share of our Class B common stock entitles the holder to ten votes in any meeting of stockholders. As a result, First American received approximately 80% of the outstanding capital stock of our company and approximately 97% of the voting power in our company. Former stockholders of US SEARCH received the remaining approximately 20% of our outstanding capital stock. Pequot Capital Management, Inc., formerly a stockholder of US SEARCH, received approximately 10% of our Class A common stock in the transaction. First American and Pequot Capital Management, Inc. entered into a stockholders agreement concurrently with the acquisitions that grants Pequot Capital Management, Inc. certain registration rights and the right to sell shares of our Class A common stock at the same time First American sells any of our shares under certain circumstances, and generally requires First American to vote for one nominee for director designated by Pequot Capital Management, Inc.

In connection with the June 2003 acquisitions discussed above, First Advantage and First American entered into a services agreement pursuant to which First American agreed to provide certain financial, administrative and managerial support services to First Advantage. On January 1, 2004, First Advantage and First American amended and restated the services agreement to eliminate most of the services and fees covered by the original agreement. Under the amended and restated agreement, First American will continue to provide certain business services to First Advantage at actual cost or on pricing at the same rate provided to similarly situated affiliates of First American. First American will also provide certain human resources systems, payroll systems and financial systems to First Advantage at a cost of $300,000 per year under the terms of the amended and restated service agreement.

The firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been selected by the audit committee of our board as our independent registered certified public accounting firm to audit the books and accounts of our company and its subsidiaries for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005. This firm has served as independent accountants for our company since 2003.

Audit-Related Fees. This category includes the aggregate fees billed during the period from January 1, 2004 to December, 31, 2004 for assurance and related services by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP that are reasonably related to the performance of the audits or reviews of the financial statements and are not reported above under “Audit Fees,” and generally consist of fees for due diligence, accounting consultation with respect to our registration statements and agreed-upon procedure reports.

The audit committee has considered the compatibility of the non-audit services performed by and fees paid to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in fiscal 2004 and determined that such services and fees were compatible with the independence of the accountants. During fiscal year 2004, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP did not utilize any personnel in connection with the audit other than its full-time, permanent employees.

Policy for Approval of Audit and Non-audit Services. The audit committee has adopted an approval policy regarding the approval of audit and non-audit services provided by the independent accountants, which approval policy describes the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which the audit committee may grant general pre-approval for services proposed to be performed by our independent accountants.

All services provided by our independent accountants, both audit and non-audit, must be pre-approved by the audit committee. Our audit committee has delegated to the chairman of the audit committee the authority to grant pre-approvals of non-audit services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The decisions of the chairman of the audit committee to pre-approve such a service are required to be reported to the audit committee at its regularly scheduled meetings.

In determining whether to approve a particular audit or permitted non-audit service, the audit committee will consider, among other things, whether such service is consistent with maintaining the independence of the independent accountant. The audit committee will also consider whether the independent accountant is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service to our company and whether the service might be expected to enhance our ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality.
