PROPOSAL AND DRAFT SHAREHOLDERS’ RESOLUTION INCREASE OF THE AUTHORISED SHARE CAPITAL OF THE COMPANY AND AUTHORISATION FOR THE BOARD TO ISSUE AND ALLOT NEW SHARES (ITEM 7 OF AGENDA)
Explanatory note Angler’s subsidiary Starfish NV (‘Starfish’) has been developing and expanding its database and reach since the launch of its online operations in late 2012. However, since Starfish operates in markets of varying potential, it has not yet been able to turn its operations into profitability. Several factors have contributed to this, including marketing restrictions, an inhibited marketing budget and a loss of initial B2B partners due to policies and market restrictions. Starfish has seen growth in some of its branded websites, and is now focusing on fostering newly established B2B partnerships, which have started showing encouraging results. The Angler’s Board of Directors has evaluated this growth strategy and concluded that it is proving to be effective. The Angler’s Board of Directors believes that opportunities will arise to acquire assets that can be a valuable complement to the Starfish operations. In the light of these considerations and taking into account the elemental business factors outlined above, the Board of Directors of Angler is of the opinion that it will be in the best interests of the Company to increase authorised capital of the Company to be able to use the resulting additional shares as an instrument for future business development. The Board of Directors, therefore, at the Board meeting of 27th August 2014, has resolved to put forward this proposal to the Company’s shareholders to increase the share capital of the company by 12,000,000 shares and to authorise the Board of Directors to issue the new shares at the Board’s discretion, whether in one allotment or in multiple allotments, where in the Board’s reasonable evaluation such allotment will be beneficial for the Angler group’s business.

DRAFT EXTRAORDINARY RESOLUTION 4/2014:
The shareholders have resolved:
1. To increase the authorised share capital of the Company by 12,000,000 ordinary shares of nominal value of €0.01 each, thus bringing the authorised share capital of the Company to €765,985.70* divided into 76,498,570 ordinary shares of nominal value of €0.01 each. (In an earlier version of this press release it was incorrectly stated €844,985.70 and 84 498 570 ordinary shares. The corrections have solely been made in this version, which is up-loaded on AktieTorget´s webpage.)
2. To authorise the Board of Directors to issue up to 12,000,000 unissued ordinary shares of the Company, whether in one or several allotments, at the Board’s discretion, to person(s) and/or entity(ies) that can contribute valuable assets to, make a material positive impact on, or are positioned to provide material contribution to the Company group’s business overall.
3. To authorise the Board of Directors, pursuant to Article 88(7) of the Companies Act (Chapter 386 of the Laws of Malta), to restrict or withdraw any rights of pre-emption, if any, of shareholders in relation to an allotment of shares by the Board in terms of the authorisation granted under point 2 of this extraordinary resolution.
4. The shareholders resolved that the authorisations provided under this extraordinary resolution shall be valid for 3 years.
