Item 9 b) - Allocation of the company's result

The Board of Directors proposes that no dividend shall be paid to the shareholders.  

Item 10 - Approval of the remuneration report

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to approve the remuneration report according to Chapter 8, Section 53 a of the Swedish Companies Act.

Items 11-15 - Election of the Board of Directors and remunerations etc.

The nomination committee has consisted of Gautier Normand, appointed by Reworld Media (chairman), Yi Shi, own holdings, Per Ekstrand, appointed by Ekstrand Corporate Advisors AB, and Pascal Chevalier, chairman of the Board.

The nomination committee has proposed the following to the Annual General Meeting:

• that the number of ordinary members of the Board of Directors shall amount to five with no deputies;

• that the following persons are re-elected, for the time until the end of the next AGM, as members of the Board of Directors: Pascal Chevalier, Gautier Normand, Jérémy Parola, Erik Siekmann and Xavier Penat;

• that Pascal Chevalier is re-elected as chairman of the Board of Directors;

• that EY AB is re-elected as auditor for the time until the end of the next AGM;

• that the auditor shall be entitled to a fee in accordance with the approved amount invoiced.

Information about the proposed members of the Board of Directors is available on TradeDoubler's website, www.tradedoubler.com.

Item 16 - Resolution on authorisation for the Board of Directors to resolve upon issuance of shares, warrants and/or convertibles

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors, until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or several occasions, with or without deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, to resolve on new issues of shares, warrants and/or convertibles. The authorisation shall also include the right to resolve on new issues where the shares, warrants or convertibles are to be paid for with non-cash consideration, through set-off or otherwise with conditions pursuant to the Swedish Companies Act.

Cash or offset issues deviating from shareholders' preferential rights must take place on market terms.

The reason for the proposal and the possibility of deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights is to allow for flexibility in connection with any acquisitions or capital procurements.

A valid resolution requires approval of shareholders representing not less than two thirds of the votes cast as well as the shares represented at the Meeting.

Item 17 - Resolution on authorisation for the Board of Directors to resolve upon acquisition of own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors, until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or several occasions, to resolve on the acquisition of a maximum number of own shares so that, after the purchase, the Company holds not more than ten (10) per cent of the total number of shares in the Company. Such shares shall be purchased on Nasdaq Stockholm at a price that is within the registered price interval (spread) at any given time, meaning the interval between the highest bid price and the lowest ask price, and in other respects in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq Stockholm at any given time. The purpose of the repurchase of own shares is firstly to align the Company's capital structure to the Company's capital requirements and, where appropriate, to enable share transfers in conjunction with the financing of Company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions.

A valid resolution requires approval of shareholders representing not less than two thirds of the votes cast as well as the shares represented at the Meeting.

Item 18 - Resolution on authorisation for the Board of Directors to resolve upon the transfer of own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors, until the next Annual General Meeting, on one or several occasions, to resolve on the transfer of shares in the Company. The shares may only be transferred in conjunction with the financing of Company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions, and the transfers may not exceed the maximum number of treasury shares held by the Company at any given time. Transfer of own shares shall be made either on Nasdaq Stockholm or in another manner.

In conjunction with the acquisition of companies or operations, transfer of own shares may be made with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and at a price that is within the so-called spread (as defined under item 17 above) at the time of the decision regarding the transfer and in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq Stockholm at any given time. Payment for shares transferred in this manner may be made in cash or through a non-cash issue or offsetting of claims against the Company, or on other specific terms.

The reason for the proposal and the possibility of deviating from the shareholders' preferential rights is, where appropriate, to be able to transfer shares in conjunction with the financing of any Company acquisitions and other types of strategic investments and acquisitions in a cost-efficient manner.

A valid resolution requires approval of shareholders representing not less than two thirds of the votes cast as well as the shares represented at the Meeting.

Item 19 - Resolution on instruction for the nomination committee

The nomination committee proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolves to adopt the following instruction for the nomination committee to apply until the General Meeting resolves to adopt a new instruction.

The nomination committee shall be composed of members appointed by the three largest shareholders, as per the last banking day in November each year, listed in the Company's share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB, as well as the chairman of the Board of Directors. The chairman of the Board of Directors shall convene the first meeting of the nomination committee. The member appointed by the largest shareholder shall be appointed as chairman of the nomination committee. If any of the largest shareholders do not wish to appoint a member to the nomination committee, the largest shareholders in turn shall be contacted. If any of the shareholders in turn refrain from appointing a member to the nomination committee, the chairman of the Board of Directors will only need to contact the eight largest shareholders in order to obtain a nomination committee composed of at least three members including the chairman of the Board of Directors. If a nomination committee composed of three members (including the chairman) is not obtained after having contacted the eight largest shareholders, the chairman shall continue to contact the shareholders that are next in turn until a nomination committee composed of three members (including the chairman) has been obtained.

If earlier than two months prior to the Annual General Meeting, a shareholder having appointed a member to the nomination committee no longer is among the largest shareholders, the member appointed by such shareholder shall resign and the new shareholder who at such time is among the largest shareholders may appoint a representative. Should a member of the nomination committee before the committee's work is completed and the nomination committee considers it necessary to replace the member, the shareholder that appointed the resigning member shall have the right to appoint a new member, or if the shareholder no longer is among the largest shareholders, the largest shareholder in turn shall have such right. Changes to the composition of the nomination committee shall be announced immediately. The term the "largest shareholders" above refers to such number of the largest shareholders which the chairman of the Board of Directors has contacted in order to obtain a nomination committee in accordance with procedure described in the above paragraph.

The nomination committee's composition ahead of each Annual General Meeting shall be published six months before the General Meeting, at the latest. The representatives of the nomination committee shall not receive any remuneration.

The nomination committee shall draw up proposals, on the issues mentioned below, for presentation to and decision by the Annual General Meeting:

1.
a. proposal of chairman of the Annual General Meeting,
b. proposal of Board of Directors,
c. proposal of chairman of the Board of Directors,
d. proposal of auditor;
e. proposal of remuneration and other compensation to each member of the Board of Directors and, where applicable, compensation for committee work,
f. proposal of remuneration to the Company's auditor, and
g. to the extent deemed necessary, proposal of amendments to this instruction for the nomination committee.
