(the “Company”), a Bermuda company, for use at our Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) to be held at Citco (Bermuda) Limited, O’Hara House, 3 Bermudiana Road, Hamilton, HM 08 Bermuda on June 12, 2013 at 10 a.m., and at any adjournments thereof.

Shareholders may vote their shares by signing and returning the proxy card accompanying this proxy statement. Shareholders who execute proxies retain the right to revoke them at any time by notice in writing to the Company Secretary, by revocation in person at the Meeting or by presenting a later-dated proxy. Unless so revoked, the shares represented by proxies will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the directions given therein.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS MATTERS

We abide by the corporate governance principles outlined below to ensure that the Board of Directors is independent from management, that the Board of Directors adequately performs its function as the overseer of management and that the interests of the Board of Directors and management are aligned with those of shareholders.

On an annual basis, directors and executive officers complete questionnaires that are used to establish the independence of independent directors, to confirm the qualifications of the members of our Audit Committee and to disclose any transaction with us or our subsidiaries in which a director or executive officer (or any member of his or her immediate family) has a direct or indirect material interest.

Director Independence

The NASDAQ Marketplace Rules require that a majority of the directors be “independent directors”.  For a director to be considered independent, the Board must determine that the director (and in some cases, members of a director’s immediate family) does not have, or in the past three years has not had, certain direct or indirect material relationships with us, our external auditors or other persons doing business with us. The Board has affirmatively determined that seven of our 13 directors have no material direct or indirect relationship with us and qualify as independent directors pursuant to the corporate governance standards of NASDAQ as well as an evaluation of factors specific to each director. The independent directors are Charles Frank, Herbert Granath, Alfred Langer, Fred Langhammer, Bruce Maggin, Parm Sandhu and Duco Sickinghe.

In the course of the determination by the Board regarding the independence of each director, it considered the beneficial ownership of such director or his or her affiliates in the Company as well as any transactions or arrangements that each director has with us.

Independent Director Meetings

Our independent directors meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions. The non-executive Vice Chairman presides over the meetings of the independent directors. During 2012, the independent directors held five such meetings.

Codes of Conduct

In 2011, the Board of Directors adopted new codes of conduct applicable to employees and directors. These new policies reinforce the importance of integrity and ethical conduct in our business, reflect the more robust policy framework that now exists within the Company and clarify the procedures for handling whistleblower complaints and other concerns.The Standards of Business Conduct applies to the Company’s employees, including any employee directors, and sets forth policies pertaining to employee conduct in the workplace, including the accuracy of books, records and financial statements, insider trading, electronic communications and information security,  confidentiality, conflicts of interest, anti-bribery and competition laws. The Standards of Business Conduct also includes information on how employees may report whistleblower complaints or raise concerns regarding questionable conduct or policy violations and provides for the anonymous, confidential submission by employees or others of any complaints or concerns about us or our accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters. The Standards of Business Conduct prohibits retaliation against employees who avail themselves of the policy. Failure to observe the terms of the Standards of Business Conduct can result in disciplinary action (including termination of employment).

The Company also has a Code of Conduct for Non-Employee Directors, which assists the Company’s non-employee directors in fulfilling their fiduciary and other duties to the Company. In addition to affirming the directors’ obligations to act ethically and honestly, the code also addresses conflicts of interest, compliance with applicable laws and confidentiality.

Both the Standards of Business Conduct and the Code of Conduct for Non-Employee Directors are available on our website at www.cme.net. They are also available in print to any shareholder upon request.

Director Nominating Process

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors currently consists of thirteen members. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Board of Directors met, or acted by unanimous consent, on 15 occasions.  Except as set forth below, all members of the Board of Directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees of the Board of Directors on which they served during the periods that they served. Eric Zinterhofer attended 45% of such meetings.

We are incorporated in Bermuda and have held our annual general meetings in Bermuda since incorporation.  Senior members of management have been present by teleconference at each annual general meeting to meet shareholders and answer any questions.  Historically, shareholders have not attended annual general meetings in person, which we attribute to our policy of regular and detailed communication with our shareholders and investors through regular meetings with management, quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences and other investor relations activities. Last year no non-employee directors attended the annual general meeting.  In view of the fact that shareholders have not historically attended annual general meetings, we have not adopted a specific policy regarding the attendance of directors at the annual general meeting.  Attendance is left to the discretion of individual directors.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Since the Company’s inception, we have been served by both a non-executive Chairman and a Chief Executive Officer, and, since 2006, a non-executive Vice Chairman. Each of the Chairman and the Vice Chairman are appointed on an annual basis by at least a majority vote of the remaining directors. As a general practice, our CEOs also serve as directors and Adrian Sarbu, our President and CEO, has been a director since December 8, 2009. The role of the Chairman, or in his absence, the Vice Chairman, is to preside over meetings of the Board. Both the Chairman and Vice Chairman also provide advice to management. In addition, as the current Chairman is not deemed to be independent under the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, the Vice Chairman presides over meetings of the independent directors. We believe that this is the most appropriate Board structure for the Company because it reflects the relative strengths and contributions of our non-executive Chairman, Mr. Lauder, who leads the Board in providing broad oversight of the development of our business strategy and the direction of the Company and Mr. Sarbu, our President and CEO, who utilizes his extensive operational and executive experience to direct the Company’s day-to-day operations and performance.

The Company has created a robust framework to effectively identify, assess, and manage risk. Senior management has primary responsibility for the daily management of risks, while the Board provides regular oversight, both as a whole and through its committees. The Audit Committee is responsible for an annual review of a risk register prepared by senior management. The Company’s risk register identifies and evaluates the key strategic, operating, financial and compliance risksthat the Company faces and proposes ways in which to effectively manage such risks in the short- and long-term. In addition, our President and CEO and our Chief Financial Officer consult regularly with directors regarding strategic and operational risks. Generally, the Board receives a quarterly presentation regarding strategies, challenges, risks and opportunities for the Company. Senior management is in attendance at quarterly Board meetings and is available for discussions with the Board regarding risk management and any other concerns. Finally, through the authority delegated by the Board, the Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee, Related Party Transactions Committee, Compensation Committee and Treasury/Finance Committee are each tasked with oversight of governance, related party, compensation and treasury or finance risks, respectively. Committees report to the full Board quarterly.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Philosophy and Objectives of Compensation Programs

General Philosophy

We believe the total compensation of our executive officers should support the following objectives:

· Attract and retain executives with the experience and expertise to drive us to achieve our objectives.  This means that we provide significant compensation opportunities to executives who are able to deliver competitive results.

· Create a mix of short-term and long-term compensation to achieve a balance between current income and long-term incentive opportunities that promote attention to both annual and multi-year business objectives without encouraging unnecessary or excessive risk-taking.  The mix between short-term and long-term is also designed to reflect the roles and responsibilities of individual employees.  This means that senior executives have a higher percentage of their total potential compensation tied to variable (versus fixed) pay than other employees.

· Reward executives for creating shareholder value.  This means that our long-term incentive programs are equity-based and are intended to represent a significant percentage of the total compensation that senior executives may earn.

· Create a strong culture that rewards results.  This means that incentive plans reward the achievement of specific financial and operating performance goals of the Company and individual performance through the use of specific personal goals and objectives.

· Ensure compensation is appropriate in light of our profile, strategy and anticipated performance.  This means that the Compensation Committee places significant emphasis on our specific strategy and performance in the ultimate determination of compensation decisions.

Compensation Design and Elements of Compensation

Our executive compensation program, covering Named Executive Officers and other members of senior management, consists of the components set out below.  In 2012, our Named Executive Officers were the President and CEO, the CFO, the Head of Strategic Planning and Operations, the General Counsel and the Deputy CFO.

Base Salary

Salary levels for each of our Named Executive Officers are set in their employment agreements.  The Compensation Committee may review these salary levels each year to determine whether any adjustment is appropriate.  Key considerations in establishing base salary levels and any increases include the overall level of responsibility of a given Named Executive Officer; the importance of the role; the experience, expertise and specific performance of the individual; and the general financial performance of the Company.  The Compensation Committee has generally maintained base salaries of the Named Executive Officers at the same level while those persons have occupied their current roles and considers the base salary levels for each of the Company’s Named Executive Officers to be consistent with the considerations described here.

For our Named Executive Officers, base salaries for 2012 accounted for 74% of their total direct compensation. (Total direct compensation consists of base salary, bonus, non-equity incentive plan awards and annual equity grant value.)  In 2012, our Named Executive Officers earned 8% of their total direct compensation from non-equity incentive plan awards or discretionary bonuses.

12

Annual Incentive Plans

In 2012, approximately 104 employees across the entire Company were eligible to earn annual incentives through various incentive plans.  Award opportunities vary by position and level in the organization. Targets for non-equity incentive opportunities for the Named Executive Officers generally range from 50% to 100% of base salary. The basis for non-equity incentive plan awards for the President and CEO and the other Named Executive Officers vary but are earned principally for the achievement of financial or operating performance goals.

Named Executive Officers are eligible to earn annual incentives pursuant to guidelines set forth in the management compensation policy adopted by the Compensation Committee in 2011 (as amended, the “Management Compensation Policy”).  Under the prior management compensation policy (the “2008 Senior Management Compensation Policy”), Named Executive Officers (other than the President and CEO) were generally eligible to earn non-equity incentive plan awards for the achievement of an annual OIBDA1 target.  In adopting the Management Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee concluded that targets should be based on a mix of financial and operating performance goals designed to support the achievement of key objectives of the Company in the current challenging economic environment in countries in which it operates.

The Management Compensation Policy provides that annual non-equity incentive plan award targets for the higher levels of management will consist of quantitative targets based on a mix of financial or operating performance goals and qualitative targets based on individual objectives.  Specific quantitative targets are intended to correlate more closely with the role or responsibilities of the relevant member of management. Quantitative targets for the President and CEO are set by the Compensation Committee and for the remaining Named Executive Officers quantitative and qualitative targets are set by the President and CEO and recommended to the Compensation Committee for approval. The split between the quantitative and qualitative elements also varies based on role and level of seniority.  In 2012, Named Executive Officers  were entitled to earn 50% of non-equity incentive plan awards for the achievement of quantitative targets and 50% for the achievement of qualitative targets. This approach is intended to hold Named Executive Officers accountable for both overall business and individual performance. Furthermore, the Compensation Committee established that the Company would need to achieve a minimum  actual OIBDA of $140 million  (the “OIBDA Threshold”) in order for Named Executive Officers and other members of senior management to be entitled to non-equity incentive plan awards in 2012.

Long-Term Equity Incentive Program

Each year the Compensation Committee reviews and has approved annual grants of equity incentive awards to a group of senior employees. Annual grant levels are determined based on the individual’s position in the organization and include a number of other factors, including the role the individual plays in setting and achieving long-term company goals, the overall dilution represented by equity grants and the cost of such grants as reflected in our financial statements. Long-term incentives, assuming stable or improving general economic conditions, are the most effective way to link the interests of management and shareholders, and to incentivize management to strive for continued shareholder value creation.  Therefore, equity incentives are an integral part of the Company’s compensation programs.

1 OIBDA, which includes program rights amortization costs, is determined as operating income/(loss) before depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of assets. For a quantitative reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measurements in accordance with GAAP, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 accompanying this proxy statement.

2012 CEO and Senior Management Non-equity Incentive Plan Targets and Awards

CEO Non-equity Incentive Plan Award Targets.   Non-equity incentive plan award targets and criteria for 2012 for the President and CEO were established by the Compensation Committee.   At the time the President and CEO was appointed in 2009,  the Compensation Committee set a multi-year non-equity incentive plan award target based on an OIBDA target that excluded our operations in Bulgaria, which was prior to the Company’s acquisition of the bTV group, and our former Ukraine operations, which the Company disposed of in April 2010. The Compensation Committee believed this was appropriate in light of the severe impact the global economic recession was having on the economies of Central and Eastern Europe and the challenge of projecting the profitability of cash flow negative operations in Bulgaria and Ukraine in such an environment. Under Mr. Sarbu’s employment agreement, the target amounts may be adjusted by the Compensation Committee in the event that the Company acquires additional operations that are considered core operations, the fundamental assumptions underlying the target amounts materially change (including assumptions in respect of exchange rates and general economic or advertising market growth rates) or the Company changes its functional currency.  In view of the disposal of the Company’s Ukrainian operations and the acquisition of the bTV group in Bulgaria in 2010 as well as the prolonged period during which the challenging operating environment in our markets has continued, the Compensation Committee concluded in 2011 that it was appropriate to set annual non-equity incentive plan award targets for the President and CEO to reflect key objectives for the Company’s business, including maintaining the Company’s leading market positions, controlling costs and promoting OIBDA growth and positive free cash flow.

For purposes of determining the amount of non-equity incentive plan compensation that can be earned, the President and CEO had quantitative financial targets (with a weighting of 50%) and qualitative individual performance targets (with a weighting of 50%).  The achievement of each of the two quantitative financial targets was weighted equally; weightings were also assigned to his specific qualitative individual performance targets based on the relative importance assigned to each. The quantitative financial targets consisted of Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA2 and Direct Free Cash Flow2 and qualitative individual performance targets included providing effective leadership for the Company in achieving its business objectives, providing strategic direction on key initiatives and working with the Board to enhance its oversight of the Company.   The President and CEO was entitled to earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012 of up to $1,800,000 based on the achievement of these targets.

CEO Special Performance Awards. At the time Mr. Sarbu was appointed President and CEO in July 2009, the Compensation Committee also identified certain areas of the business for which it wished to incentivize Mr. Sarbu to achieve specific goals in order to address specific operating areas of the business.  The Compensation Committee established opportunities for the President and CEO to earn non-equity incentive plan awards for: (i) the completion of a transaction relating to the sale of our Ukraine operations, for which Mr. Sarbu was entitled to an award of $500,000; (ii) the refinancing of the senior debt of the Company due in 2012, 2013 and 2014, for which Mr. Sarbu is entitled to an award based on the amount of such debt refinanced, with the maximum amount of such award not to exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate; (iii) the achievement of an aggregate OIBDA-target for the Company’s new media operations for the period from 2011 through 2013, for which Mr. Sarbu is entitled to an award equal to 5% of the amount by which the reported OIBDA of the new media division over such period exceeds $30 million, with the maximum amount of such award not to exceed $500,000; and (iv) the development of a succession planning tool endorsed by the Board of Directors, for which Mr. Sarbu was entitled to an award of $500,000.  Mr. Sarbu earned the full amount of the special performance awards in respect of item (i) above in 2010, item (ii) in 2009, 2010 and 2012 and item (iv) in 2011.

Senior Management Non-equity Incentive Plan Award Targets.  Each Named Executive Officer has a target award amount for non-equity incentive plan compensation that is based on a percentage of base salary.  The target for each of the Chief Financial Officer, the Head of Strategic Planning and Operations and the General Counsel is based on 100% of base salary and for the Deputy CFO is based on 50% of base salary.

For purposes of determining the amount of non-equity incentive plan compensation that can be earned, each Named Executive Officer has a series of quantitative financial targets (with a weighting of 50%) and qualitative individual performance targets (with a weighting of 50%).  Weightings are also assigned to specific qualitative individual performance targets  and vary by Named Executive Officer based on the number of performance targets and the relative importance assigned to each.

For 2012, the quantitative financial performance targets of the Chief Financial Officer consisted of Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow and qualitative individual performance targets included overseeing initiatives to reduce the Company’s leverage, ensuring the delivery of high quality and timely information to support the Company’s operations by improving budgeting and forecasting tools, maintaining effective risk management and effective internal controls, and improving the capacity of the finance department. The Chief Financial Officer was entitled to earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012 of up to $580,980 based on the achievement of these targets.

2 “Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA” is equal to actual consolidated OIBDA for the Company, translated at exchange rates used in the Company’s 2012 budget and excluding stock-based compensation and other one-time items.  “Direct Free Cash Flow” is free cash flow translated at exchange rates used in the Company’s 2012 budget. Free cash flow includes cash flows from continuing operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment, net of disposals of property, plant and equipment.  The purpose of the translation at constant exchange rates is to exclude the impact of exchange rate movements on internal performance targets.

14

The quantitative financial and operating performance targets of the Head of Strategic Planning and Operations were Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow and qualitative individual performance targets included implementing certain internal and external business development projects and maintaining and improving communication to ensure effective divisional performance and cross-divisional collaboration.  The Head of Strategic Planning and Operations was entitled to earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012 of up to $515,704 based on the achievement of these targets.

The qualitative financial performance targets of the General Counsel consisted of Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow and qualitative individual performance targets included ensuring effective legal services are delivered in support of the Company’s operations and business strategies, advising on and supporting the Company’s deleveraging strategy, strengthening the capacity of the corporate legal department and ensuring the Company effectively fulfills its regulatory and compliance goals.  The General Counsel was entitled to earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012 of up to $530,903 based on the achievement of these targets.

The quantitative financial targets of the Deputy CFO consisted of Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow and qualitative individual performance goals included implementing a common transaction processing platform across the Company’s operations, maintaining effective risk management and effective internal controls, and overseeing a rationalization of the Company’s operating entities.  The Deputy CFO was entitled to earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012 of up to $199,754 based on the achievement of these targets.

The financial targets identified are consistent with key measures the Company uses to evaluate its performance on a Company-wide basis.  The individual performance targets have been tailored to the Name Executive Officer’s role and were designed to support the achievement of the Company’s strategic objectives.

Determining Awards.   The achievement of financial targets is measured against the results delivered by the Company in respect of such targets for 2012, translated where appropriate at exchange rates used in the Company’s 2012 budget.  Budgeted exchange rates are applied in order to exclude the impact of foreign exchange movements on performance.  The achievement of individual performance targets are based on self-assessments by the Named Executive Officer that are reviewed by the President and CEO before he makes a recommendation to the Compensation Committee.  In addition, the Company would need to achieve the OIBDA Threshold in order for Named Executive Officers to earn non-equity incentive plan awards in 2012.

While performance targets form the basis for awarding non-equity incentive plan compensation, the Compensation Committee believes that judgment is also an important factor and the Compensation Committee can exercise discretion in determining awards. This is particularly relevant following the onset of the financial crisis in the economies of Central and Eastern Europe in late 2008.  The prolonged period over which television advertising spending contracted continued into 2012 as levels of advertising spending remained low in response to reduced consumer demand. The effect of that operating environment together with the impact of unforeseen macroeconomic events have made forecasting and budgeting much more challenging. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee takes factors such as these into consideration and may reasonably determine ranges or absolute numbers above or below which awards may be earned in respect of specific performance targets. In addition, the Compensation Committee may also award discretionary bonuses or establish other performance criteria for purposes of creating additional incentives for the achievement of specific objectives in addition to the annual incentive plans.

2012 CEO and Senior Management Awards

The Company faced a difficult economic environment in the markets of Central and Eastern Europe during 2012, where the impact of the global financial and economic crisis has continued and has been exacerbated by the continuing impact of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis.  Since the onset of the financial crisis at the end of 2008, the television advertising markets in which the Company contracted significantly in response to sharply reduced consumer demand.  The Company estimates that real GDP (that is, after adjusting for inflation) in the markets in which it operates remained flat overall during 2012 and was down from the modest 2% growth rate reported for 2011, primarily as a result of a slowdown in export growth and ongoing austerity measures in certain of those countries. Consumer confidence in its markets was negatively affected by concerns about the continuing impact of the European sovereign debt crisis and real private consumption is estimated to have declined by 1% overall during 2012. This continued lack of growth in the economies of the region has led to a decrease in advertising spending. On a constant currency basis, television advertising spending, the Company’s principal source of revenues, declined overall by 6% in 2012 while internet advertising spending increased by 2%.

15

The Company did not achieve its financial targets in 2012 but was successful in achieving key strategic goals.  Declining television advertising spending had an impact on the Company’s ability to generate television advertising revenues; nevertheless, the Company succeeded in maintaining its leading positions in its markets, expanding the production of content and third party revenues generated by it, and rolling out its video-on-demand service Voyo while continuing to focus on controlling costs. Free cash flow was negatively affected in part by lower cash receipts attributable to the decline in television advertising spending. In addition, the Company successfully retired $184.8 million of senior indebtedness by issuing $180.2 million of equity and rescheduled $209.0 million of its indebtedness to improve its maturity profile, as a result of which there are no maturities of senior indebtedness prior to November 2015.

CEO Non-equity Incentive Plan Awards.  The Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA target for the President and CEO was $190.1 million and the target for Direct Free Cash Flow was greater than zero.   The President and CEO did not earn a non-equity incentive plan award  for 2012. The Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA target and the Direct Free Cash Flow Targets were not achieved. The Compensation Committee determined that the individual performance targets had been achieved in respect of  providing strategic direction on key initiatives, ensuring improvements in the operating performance of the Company’s businesses, and working with the Board to enhance its oversight of the Company. However, the President and CEO did not earn any non-equity incentive plan award because the Company did not achieve the OIBDA Threshold.

The President and CEO did earn a Special Performance Award of $133,100 in connection with the refinancing of a portion of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness.

Senior Management Non-equity Incentive Plan Awards.  The Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA target for the Named Executive Officers was $190.1 million and  the Direct Free Cash Flow was greater than zero.

The CFO did not earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012.  The Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow targets were not achieved.  The Compensation Committee determined that the qualitative individual performance targets had been achieved  with respect to overseeing a series of financing transactions that deleveraged the Company’s balance sheet and extended its debt maturities, overseeing the Company’s financial reporting and maintaining effective internal controls, completing the implementation of new financial reporting and budgeting software tools, and the strengthening of his department to improve the quality of internal reporting. However, the CFO did not earn any non-equity incentive plan award because the Company did not achieve the OIBDA Threshold. The Compensation Committee did elect to award the CFO a discretionary bonus of $75,000.

The Head of Strategic Planning and Operations did not earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012.  The Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow targets  were not achieved.  The Compensation Committee determined that the qualitative individual performance targets had been achieved with respect to implementing cost control measures across the broadcasting operations, overseeing the successful roll-out of Voyo and the launch of new niche channels and the effective development and strengthening of his team. However, the Head of Strategic Planning and Operations did not earn any non-equity incentive plan award because the Company did not achieve the OIBDA Threshold. The Compensation Committee did elect to award the Head of Strategic Planning and Operations a discretionary bonus of $75,000.

However, the General Counsel did not earn any non-equity incentive plan award because the Company did not achieve the OIBDA Threshold. The Compensation Committee did elect to award the General Counsel a discretionary bonus of $75,000.

16

The Deputy CFO did not earn a non-equity incentive plan award for 2012.  The Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA and Direct Free Cash Flow targets were not achieved.  The Compensation Committee determined that the individual performance targets had been achieved with respect to overseeing the Company’s financial reporting and maintaining effective internal controls, substantially completing the implementation of new transaction processing tools, and reducing the number of operating entities in the group structure of the Company. However, the Deputy CFO did not earn any non-equity incentive plan award because the Company did not achieve the OIBDA Threshold. The Compensation Committee did elect to award the Deputy CFO a discretionary bonus of $40,000.

Long-Term Equity Awards

In 2012, the Compensation Committee elected to award restricted stock units rather than options. The continuing difficult economic environment in the Company’s markets has resulted in the television advertising markets there declining by 6% compared to 2011 in constant currencies. This has had a negative impact on the Company’s operating results and share price, which has declined significantly over this period.  Because of this share price movement and the likelihood of continued pressure on the Company’s share price as the return to growth in the Company’s markets is expected to be gradual, the exercise price of all options granted to date are significantly above the Company’s trading price. As a result, these options are not currently an effective compensation tool.  Accordingly, the Compensation Committee elected to award restricted stock units to 48 employees, including the Named Executive Officers, in 2012.  The dates and values of the grants to Named Executive Officers are included in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards table below.

As described below under “Equity Granting Policy”, the Compensation Committee approves all grants of option and restricted stock units to Named Executive Officers and other employees and the exercise price of all option grants is equal to the fair market value of our shares on the date of grant.  Other than the grants in May 2009, options to employees currently vest over four years and have a life of eight years (ten years prior to 2007).  The grants made in May 2009 vest over two years and have a life of six years. Awards of restricted stock units vest in four equal installments over four years.

Other Compensation Practices and Policies

Executive Compensation Recoupment

The Company has a policy that permits the Compensation Committee to seek recovery of payments of incentive plan compensation awards and bonuses of Named Executive Officers and certain other covered senior executives if the Company is required to restate its financial statements (other than due to a change in accounting rules) or if the performance results leading to a payment of incentive compensation are subject to a material downward adjustment.  For purposes of this policy, payment of incentive compensation includes awards of equity compensation under the Stock Incentive Plan.  Under this policy, the Compensation Committee has discretion to determine what action it believes is appropriate, which may include recovery or cancellation of incentive payments, and may consider a number of factors in determining whether to seek recovery, including the degree of responsibility of a covered executive, the amount of excess compensation paid, the costs associated with recovery of compensation, applicable law and other actions the Company or third parties have taken.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We encourage stock ownership by executives and directors but do not have formal stock ownership guidelines.

Severance

As is customary in our markets, all of our Named Executive Officers have employment agreements with us or one of our subsidiaries and these agreements provide for compensation in the event of involuntary termination.  These termination payments, which are typically defined by local practice and are generally derived from the notice period or term of the relevant employment agreement, were negotiated between us and each Named Executive Officer individually and do not conform to a single policy.  The basis for and value of these termination payments is further described and quantified under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control” below.

Compensation and Management Consultants

During 2012, neither the Compensation Committee nor management engaged anyone to serve as an independent advisor on executive or director compensation matters or on programs and policies that are subject to the review or approval of the Compensation Committee.

Say-on-Pay Proposals

At the Company’s  2011 annual general meeting, shareholders voted on an advisory proposal as to the frequency with which the Company should conduct an advisory vote on executive compensation (a “say-on-pay proposal”). At that meeting, 93.2% of votes cast were in favor of holding such a vote once every three years and the Company intends to hold such vote every three years. In addition, at the 2011 annual general meeting, shareholders had an opportunity to vote on executive compensation as disclosed in the 2011 proxy statement. Of the votes cast on the say-on-pay proposal, 93.2% were voted in favor of the proposal. The Compensation Committee considered the results of the 2011 advisory vote and it believes that it affirms shareholders’ support of the Company’s approach to executive compensation. The Company will continue to consider the outcome of subsequent say-on-pay votes when making future compensation decisions for Named Executive Officers.

Role of Executives in Establishing Compensation

The President and CEO, the Chief Financial Officer, the General Counsel and other members of senior management have participated in the development and implementation of certain executive compensation programs, particularly the annual incentive and long-term equity incentive programs.  Once formulated, these programs are reviewed by our President and CEO and submitted to the Compensation Committee for its review and approval.  From time to time, certain executives, including the President and CEO, may be invited to attend meetings of the Compensation Committee to discuss Company compensation programs; in addition, the General Counsel may be invited to attend meetings in his capacity as Company Secretary.  While these executives may be asked to provide input and perspective, only Compensation Committee members vote on executive compensation matters.  These votes take place in executive session, when no members of management are in attendance.

Compensation Risk Assessment

In establishing and reviewing executive compensation, the Compensation Committee believes that executive compensation has been designed and allocated among base salary and short-term and long-term compensation in a manner that does not encourage excessive risk-taking by management that may harm the value of the Company, reward poor judgment or is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Base salaries are designed to be consistent with an executive’s responsibilities and to provide sufficient financial security as a proportion of total compensation so as not to promote unnecessary or excessive risk-taking when earning compensation under the Company’s incentive plans.

Historically, the Company’s non-equity incentive plan awards for senior management have been, in general, based on achieving annual OIBDA targets.  In 2012, non-equity incentive plan awards were based on achieving a Consolidated Budgeted OIBDA target and a Direct Free Cash Flow target as well as a number of annual qualitative targets pursuant to the Management Compensation Policy. While this may encourage taking short-term risks at the expense of long-term performance, the Compensation Committee believes that a number of factors substantially mitigate such risk.   First, the Compensation Committee believes a rigorous annual budgeting process results in the establishment of annual targets that are based on a longer-term strategic vision for the Company and sustainable value creation.  Second, having a number of targets that serve different goals mitigates the risk that certain Company objectives will be achieved (e.g., significant audience share or market share) at the expense of others (e.g., controlling costs and generating positive free cash flow).  This encourages management to focus on sustained profitable revenue generation. Third, rewarding key senior executives in part on the basis of achieving Company-wide targets ensures that they are focused on the performance of the Company as a whole.  While rewarding division senior executives for divisional performance may result in risk taking, their targets have also been designed to serve different goals, which mitigates this possibility. Fourth, provisions in our Management Compensation Policy that permit senior executives to be rewarded for qualitative performance reasons can reduce the influence of formulae in the determination of quantitative performance awards. The Compensation Committee also created the opportunity for the President and CEO to earn certain special performance bonuses based on the achievement of specific multi-year goals that were designed to address either specific risks or to ensure specific actions are taken that the Compensation Committee believes are important to the business. Such multi-year performance targets for the President and CEO are intended to ensure that the principal executive of the Company remains focused on long-term value creation.

18

Under the Company’s equity incentive plans, the Compensation Committee also awards stock options or restricted stock units to senior management and other senior employees.  As a general rule, equity awards to employees vest over a four-year period, which encourages grantees to focus on share price appreciation for an extended period of time.  Awards under the Company’s equity incentive plans create an incentive for long-term value creation, which can also act as a deterrent to short-term risk-taking.

The Compensation Committee continues to believe that an appropriate balance of compensation elements will support the achievement of competitive revenues and earnings in variable economic and industry conditions without undue risk.

Equity Granting Policy

Recognizing the importance of adhering to appropriate practices and procedures when granting equity awards, we formalized an equity granting policy in 2007 to memorialize the practices and processes we use in granting such awards. The policy establishes the following practices:

· Decisions to award equity grants should only be taken during a period when trading in our shares is permitted in accordance with our Insider Trading Policy.

· All grants to Section 16 officers, including grants to new hires, must be approved at a meeting of the Compensation Committee, including telephonic meetings, and may not occur through action by unanimous written consent.

· The grant date of any equity award approved at a meeting of the Compensation Committee shall be the date of such meeting or, in connection with an anticipated hire or an award to be granted in several installments, a future date established by the Compensation Committee at such meeting, subject to employment commencing.

· The exercise price for all option awards shall not be less than the closing price of our shares on the date of grant.

Impact of Tax and Accounting on Compensation Decisions

As a general matter, the Compensation Committee takes into consideration the various tax and accounting implications of compensation vehicles employed by us.  When determining amounts of long-term incentive compensation to executives and employees, the Compensation Committee examines the accounting cost associated with the grants. Under Accounting Standards Codification 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), grants of stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units permitted pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan result in an accounting charge. The accounting charge is equal to the fair value of the number of instruments being issued that are expected to vest. For stock options, the cost is equal to the fair value of the option on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model multiplied by the number of options that are expected to vest. For restricted stock or restricted stock units, the cost is equal to the fair value of the stock on the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares or units granted that are expected to vest. This expense is amortized over the requisite service or vesting period.

The Compensation Committee also considers the tax implications of its programs, both to us and to the participants.  It is the Compensation Committee’s policy to maximize the effectiveness of our executive compensation plans in this regard.  However, the Compensation Committee believes that compensation and benefits decisions should be primarily driven by the needs of the business rather than by tax policy.  Therefore, the Compensation Committee may make pay decisions that result in certain tax inefficiencies.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested

None of our Named Executive Officers exercised any stock options and no restricted stock units vested during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control

Set out below is information reflecting compensation that may be payable to each of the Named Executive Officers in the event of the termination of such Named Executive Officer’s employment. The amount of compensation payable upon voluntary termination, involuntary termination (other than for cause) or termination for cause is described below. We do not have any severance agreement or any agreement providing for any specific payments (commonly referred to as “parachute payments”) upon a change of control with any Named Executive Officer. However, options and restricted stock units granted to employees and directors automatically become vested on a change of control pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan. Except as set out below, for purposes hereof a “change of control” refers to certain corporate transactions (including a sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company and a merger or consolidation where the Company is not the surviving entity) as set forth in the Company’s option agreements that are customarily regarded as a change of control.

The amounts shown below assume that such termination or change of control was effective as of December 31, 2012. The amounts do not include salary earned through such period (which is reflected in the Summary Compensation Table) or accrued vacation days. The amounts below also do not include non-equity incentive plan compensation or discretionary bonuses for any Named Executive Officers in respect of the year ended December 31, 2012.The numbers presented below are for illustrative purposes.  Actual amounts that may be payable or will be paid can only be determined at the time of separation of a Named Executive Officer from the Company. Option values represent the difference between the closing price of shares of our Class A Common Stock on December 31, 2012 and the exercise price of such options. Restricted stock unit values represent the closing price of shares of our Class A Common Stock on December 31, 2012. Foreign currency amounts set out below have been translated using the exchange rate prevailing at December 31, 2012.

PROPOSAL 2

INCREASE IN THE AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL BY

INCREASING THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED

SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK

At present, the Company's Bye-laws and Memorandum state that the authorized share capital of the Company is $17.6 million, divided into three classes of shares: 200,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.08 per share, 15,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.08 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.08 per share.

As of May 15, 2013, 134,318,060 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued and outstanding, 11,211,449 shares were reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the outstanding share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 13,479,796 shares were reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the Company’s outstanding senior convertible notes due 2015, and 5,781,669 shares were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of stock options, restricted stock units and warrants. Accordingly, there are currently 35,209,026 shares of Class A Common Stock that are unissued and not reserved for issuance. As of May 15, 2013, 64,000 shares of Class B Common Stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of stock options, leaving 14,936,000 shares of Class B Common Stock unissued and not reserved for issuance. As of May 15, 2013,  one share of our Series A Preferred Stock was issued and outstanding and 242,884 shares of our Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock were reserved for issuance in connection with the Series B Private Placement (as described in Proposal 3), leaving 4,757,115 shares of Preferred Stock unissued and not reserved for issuance.

The Independent Directors, on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company, have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to increase the authorized share capital from $17.6 million to $25.6 million by increasing the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares. The Board of Directors has determined that the authorization of an additional 100,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock will provide the Company with flexibility in the future by assuring that there will be sufficient authorized shares of Class A Common Stock to enable the Company to issue shares in connection with the Series B Private Placement, any new debt or equity financing requirements, future acquisitions or mergers, stock dividends or splits, employee compensation programs and for other corporate purposes.

The unreserved and unissued shares of Class A Common Stock may be issued at such times, for such purposes and for such consideration as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and, except as otherwise required by applicable law, without further authority from the shareholders of the Company.  A copy of the amended Section 3(1) of the Bye-laws is set forth in Exhibit A.

The amendment to the Company’s Bye-laws and the conditions of its Memorandum to increase the authorized share capital and the number of authorized shares will not have any immediate effect on the rights of existing shareholders.  However, the Company’s Board of Directors will have the authority to issue authorized stock without requiring future shareholder approval of such issuances, except as may be required by applicable law or exchange regulations.  To the extent that additional authorized shares are issued in the future, they will decrease the percentage equity ownership of existing shareholders, could decrease existing shareholders’ voting power, and, depending upon the price at which they are issued, could be dilutive to the existing shareholders.

Preemptive Rights

Time Warner Media Holdings B.V. (“TW Investor”) is a beneficial owner of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock.  Pursuant to an amended Investor Rights Agreement by and among TW Investor, RSL Savannah LLC, Ronald S. Lauder, RSL Investments LLC, RSL Investments Corporation and the Company, the Company has granted TW Investor, and any of its permitted transferees, certain preemptive rights with respect to future issuances of the Company’s equity securities (subject to certain exclusions).

40

No Appraisal Rights

Under Bermuda law and the Company’s Bye-laws, holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and the Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights with respect to the authorized share increase.

Vote Required; Recommendation

The Bye-laws provide that the Company may from time to time, by ordinary resolution passed by the holders of Common Shares, increase its capital by such sum, to be divided into shares of such amounts, as the resolution shall prescribe.  Adoption of an ordinary resolution to increase the share capital as described in this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, at the Meeting, provided that a quorum is present in person or by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in determining the presence of a quorum, but are not counted as votes cast.

If the Meeting takes place prior to the termination of the Voting Agreement (as described in Proposal 3), Mr. Lauder, who would hold 55.6% of the voting power of our shares pursuant to the Voting Agreement as of the record date for the Meeting, has agreed to vote for this Proposal.  If the Meeting takes place after the termination of the Voting Agreement, TW Investor, which would hold 49.9% of the voting power of our shares as of the record date for the Meeting, has agreed to vote in favor of this Proposal.

Unless otherwise indicated, the accompanying form of Proxy will be voted FOR the adoption of the amendment to the Company’s Bye-laws and the conditions of its Memorandum to increase the authorized share capital of the Company from $17.6 million to $25.6 million by increasing the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares.

THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMEND A VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE ADOPTION OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S BYE-LAWS AND THE CONDITIONS OF ITS MEMORANDUM TO INCREASE THE AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL OF THE COMPANY BY INCREASING THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK.

PROPOSAL 3

(“TW Investor”) in connection with its preexisting contractual right to purchase 49.9% of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock sold in the Public Offering.  The net proceeds to the Company from the Public Offering were approximately $145.4 million. In connection with the Public Offering, we granted the underwriters an option for a thirty-day period beginning on May 2, 2013 to purchase up to an additional 5,443,658 shares of our Class A Common Stock, which includes 2,716,385 shares of our Class A Common Stock that would be purchased by TW Investor pursuant to such preexisting contractual right.  On May 10, 2013, the underwriters exercised this option in respect of 2,696,349 shares of Class A Common Stock, including 1,345,478 shares acquired by TW Investor pursuant to such preexisting contractual right.  If the underwriters exercise the remainder of this option, the aggregate net proceeds to the Company would be approximately $160.0 million.

On April 29, 2013, prior to the commencement of the Public Offering, we entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with TW Investor to sell to TW Investor in a private placement shares of our Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.08 per share (“Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000,000.  The Subscription Agreement also provides that TW Investor, in its sole discretion, has the right to purchase directly from us in a private placement additional Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares up to an amount equal to $200,000,000 minus the aggregate gross proceeds received by the Company in the Public Offering. Following the Public Offering and the underwriters' partial exercise of their option, TW Investor is entitled to purchase up to an additional 42,884 Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $42,884,000 (or if the underwriters in the Public Offering exercise in full the remainder of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A Common Stock, 35,329 Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $35,329,000).  The issuance and sale of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to TW Investor is referred to in this proxy statement as the “Series B Private Placement.”  The terms of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares and the Subscription Agreement are summarized below.

TW Investor is wholly owned by TW Media Holdings LLC, which is wholly owned by Time Warner Inc. (together, “Time Warner”).

The issuance and sale of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares described in this Proposal 3 is subject to the approval of our shareholders under NASDAQ Marketplace rules, as further described below.  As a result, this Proposal 3 seeks a vote of shareholders in favor of the Series B Private Placement and the issuance and sale of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to TW Investor as described in this Proposal.

Background

Our Board of Directors and management regularly evaluate our liquidity and capital resources.  Beginning in November 2012, our Board of Directors and management began to consider financing options designed to provide us with financial flexibility and additional liquidity.  These options included pursuing one or more potential public or private equity issuances.

On December 11, 2012, our Board of Directors established a special committee of Independent Directors (defined below) consisting of Messrs. Granath, Frank, Maggin and Sandhu (the “Special Committee”), and charged the Special Committee with the authority to evaluate potential financing options, to engage advisors, to negotiate directly or to monitor negotiations in connection with such potential financing options, and to make a recommendation to the disinterested directors of our Board of Directors (the “Independent Directors”) with respect to a transaction. Over the course of the process, the Special Committee met on a number of occassions.

42

In March 2013, at the conclusion of its review of the financing options available to the Company, which included discussions and preliminary negotiations with Time Warner regarding its participation in potential alternative equity transactions, the Special Committee recommended to the Independent Directors that the Company seek to raise $400,000,000 of equity through the combination of a public offering to issue and sell approximately $200,000,000 of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and through a private placement to issue and sell approximately $200,000,000 of a preferred equity instrument to TW Investor. At a meeting of the Board of Directors on April 11, 2013, the Board of Directors delegated to the Independent Directors the authority to approve the equity financing transactions.

Following further deliberations among the Independent Directors, and their determination that the cash consideration to be received by the Company for issuance of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares constitutes fair value and that the Public Offering and the Series B Private Placement are in the best interest of the Company, the Independent Directors approved on April 25, 2013, the Public Offering and the Series B Private Placement, and resolved to recommend to the Company’s shareholders that they approve the issuance and sale of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to TW Investor and the other transactions contemplated by the transaction documents.  On April 29, 2013, the relevant parties executed and delivered certain definitive agreements (summarized below) relating to the Series B Private Placement.

NASDAQ Shareholder Approval Requirement

We are seeking shareholder approval of the issuance and sale of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to TW Investor in accordance with the NASDAQ Marketplace rules.

NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5635(d) requires shareholder approval of the issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock outstanding before the issuance for less than the greater of book or market value of the stock.  Because we have agreed to issue to TW Investor an amount of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares that could be convertible into more than 20% of our outstanding shares of Class A Commons Stock at a price (i.e., the conversion price, described below under “Terms of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares and Transaction Agreements – Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares”) that is lower than the book value of our outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, we are seeking shareholder approval pursuant to Rule 5635(d).

In addition, under NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5635(c), a listed company must obtain shareholder approval prior to the issuance of common stock in a private offering to its executive officers, directors or an Affiliated Entity (as defined by NASDAQ) at a price less than the market value per share.  We are seeking shareholder approval pursuant to Rule 5635(c) because TW Investor is such an Affiliated Entity and the purchase price per share, on an as converted basis, paid by TW Investor (i.e., the conversion price, described below under “Terms of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares and Transaction Agreements – Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares”) is lower than the closing bid price of Class A Common Stock on the trading day preceding the date the Subscription Agreement was entered into.

Terms of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares and Transaction Agreements

Below is a summary of terms of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares and summaries of agreements relating to this Proposal.  These summaries do not purport to be complete descriptions of all the terms of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares and the transaction agreements.  You are urged to read each document in its entirety.  You can find the form of Certificate of Designation for Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares (the “Certificate of Designation”); the Subscription Agreement; and the Letter Agreement, dated April 29, 2013, among Ronald S. Lauder, RSL Savannah LLC, RSL Capital LLC, RSL Investments Corporation and TW Investor (the “Letter Agreement”) in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 29, 2013. (The Certificate of Designation is an exhibit to the Subscription Agreement.)  The Letter Agreement amends the Irrevocable Voting Deed and Corporate Representative Appointment, dated as of May 18, 2009, among the Company, TW Investor, Ronald S. Lauder and RSL Savannah LLC (as amended, the "Voting Agreement"), and the Investor Rights Agreement, dated May 18, 2009, among the Company, TW Investor, Ronald S. Lauder and certain of his affiliates (as amended, the “Investor Rights Agreement”).  You can find the Investor Rights Agreement (without amendments) and the Voting Agreement in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.  You can find the First Amendment to Investor Rights Agreement dated April 30, 2012 in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 30, 2012.

Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares

On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement, the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares will be issued and sold to TW Investor for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000,000 (or $242,884,000 if the underwriters in the Public Offering do not exercise the remainder of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A Common Stock and TW Investor exercises in full its option to purchase additional Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares).  The following is a summary of the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Shares:

Accretion.  The initial stated value of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares of $1,000 per share will accrete at an annual rate of 7.5%, compounded quarterly, from (and including) the date of issuance to (but excluding) the third anniversary of the date of issuance, and at an annual rate of 3.75%, compounded quarterly, from (and including) the third anniversary of the date of issuance to (but excluding) the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance.

Election to Cash Pay in Lieu of Accretion. We have the right from the third anniversary of the date of issuance to pay cash to the holder in lieu of any further accretion.

Conversion. From the third anniversary of the date of issuance, each Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Share may, at the holder's option, be converted into the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock determined by dividing:

(i) the accreted stated value plus accrued but unpaid dividends, if any, in each case as of the conversion date, by

(ii) the conversion price, which will be $3.1625 at the date of issuance but is subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to customary weighted-average anti-dilution provisions with respect to our issuances of equity or equity-linked securities at a price below the then-applicable conversion price (excluding any securities issued under our benefit plans at or above fair market value).

Dilution Upon Conversion. Conversion of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares would be highly dilutive to our Class A Common Stock.  For example, if we assume that

(i) TW Investor purchases $200,000,000 of our Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares;

(ii) there is no adjustment to the initial stated value of $1,000 per share due to any stock dividend, stock split or other corporate actions and there is no accrued or unpaid interest at such time; and

(iii) we do not exercise our right to redeem any of the outstanding Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares,

then conversion of all Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares by the holder on the third anniversary of the issuance would result in 79,033,433 additional shares of our Class A Common Stock being issued and outstanding, and the economic interests of shareholders of our Class A Common Stock would be diluted and the price of our shares may be adversely affected.

Redemption. We will have the right to redeem the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares in whole or in part from the third anniversary of the date of issuance, upon 30 days' written notice. The redemption price of each outstanding Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Share is equal to its accreted stated value plus accrued but unpaid dividends, if any, in each case as of the redemption date specified in the redemption notice. After receipt of a redemption notice, each holder of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares will have the right to convert, prior to the date of redemption, all or part of such Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to be redeemed by us into shares of our Class A Common Stock in accordance with the terms of conversion described above.

44

Voting. Holders of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares will have no voting rights on any matter presented to holders of any class of our capital stock, with the exception that they may vote with holders of shares of our Class A Common Stock (i) with respect to a change of control event or (ii) as provided by our Bye-laws or applicable Bermuda law.

Dividends. Holders of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares will participate in any dividends declared or paid on our Class A Common Stock on an as-converted basis.

Ranking.  The Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares will rank pari passu with our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and senior to all other equity securities of the Company in respect of payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon liquidation.

Liquidation Preference. Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, prior to any distributions to holders of any other capital stock of the Company (other than the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the holder of which shall share ratably with holders of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares), proceeds will first be distributed to holders of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares on a ratable basis until each such holder has received a liquidation preference per share equal to the greater of (i) the accreted value per share plus all declared but unpaid dividends and (ii) the amount per share that such holder would be entitled to receive in such liquidation in respect of the shares of Class A Common Stock into which a share of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares is then convertible. The consolidation, merger, reorganization, change of control, or other form of acquisition of the Company or a sale, transfer or exclusive license of all or substantially all of its assets will be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up for purposes of the liquidation preference.

Subscription Agreement Summary

On April 29, 2013, we entered into the Subscription Agreement for the issuance and sale to TW Investor of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares in a private placement transaction.

Issuance.  On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement, we will issue and sell to Time Warner 200,000 shares of our Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares at a price per share equal to $1,000, for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000,000.  (The terms of the Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares are described above.)

Time Warner Has a Right to Acquire Additional Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares if the Public Offering Raises Less than $200,000,000.  TW Investor, in its sole discretion, has the right to purchase directly from us in a private placement additional Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares up to an amount equal to $200,000,000 minus the aggregate gross proceeds received by the Company in the Public Offering.  Following the Public Offering and the partial exercise of the underwriters' option, TW Investor is entitled to purchase up to an additional 42,884 Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $42,884,000 (or if the underwriters in the Public Offering exercise in full the remainder of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A Common Stock, 35,329 Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares for an aggregate purchase price of  $35,329,000).

Representations and Warranties. The Subscription Agreement contains representations and warranties by the Company relating to, among other things, corporate organization, capitalization, due authorization of the agreement and other transaction agreements, compliance with laws, no conflicts and third party approval rights.

Closing Conditions. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement depends upon the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including, among other things, approval of this Proposal by our shareholders and receipt by Time Warner of a regulatory approval required under European Union competition rules in connection with the expiration of the Voting Agreement.

Termination. The Company and TW Investor each have the right to terminate the Subscription Agreement if any governmental entity has issued an injunction prohibiting the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement, if the non-terminating party materially breaches the terms of the Subscription Agreement, or by mutual written consent.  The Company and TW Investor each have the right to terminate the Subscription Agreement if the Series B Private Placement has not been consummated on or before September 30, 2013, subject to the right of TW Investor to extend such date to January 31, 2014, if TW Investor has not obtained a regulatory approval required under European Union competition rules in connection with the expiration of the Voting Agreement.

45

Time Warner Undertaking to Vote In Favor of Proposals 2 and 3.  In the event that the Meeting is held after the termination of the Voting Agreement, TW Investor has agreed to vote all of our voting securities held by TW Investor and its affiliates, which together represent 49.9% of our outstanding voting securities as of April 1, 2013 (the record date for the Meeting), in favor of the issuance and sale of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to TW Investor (this Proposal 3) and to amend the Company’s Bye-laws and the conditions of its Memorandum of Association to increase the Company’s authorized share capital from $17.6 million to $25.6 million by increasing the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares (Proposal 2).

Letter Agreement Summary

On April 29, 2013, we entered into the Letter Agreement with TW Investor, Ronald S. Lauder, and certain of his affiliates.

Amendment to Investor Rights Agreement. The Letter Agreement amends the Investor Rights Agreement by, among other things:

· deleting a provision that would have required Time Warner to accept a third-party change of control offer or proposal in respect of all CME equity securities beneficially owned by Time Warner in the event our Board of Directors approved or recommended to our shareholders such offer or proposal and Time Warner did not make an alternate proposal; and

· deleting a provision that would require us to obtain the consent of Mr. Lauder and certain entities affiliated with Mr. Lauder before issuing any equity securities.

Extension of the Voting Agreement. The Letter Agreement extends the term of the Voting Agreement  from May 18, 2013 to the earlier of (i) one day after TW Investor provides written notice of its election to terminate the Voting Agreement and (ii) June 30, 2013.  Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, RSL Savannah LLC (an affiliate of Ronald S. Lauder) has the right to vote all shares of our Class A Common Stock, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and any other voting equity securities of CME owned by TW Investor, except with respect to transactions relating to a change of control of CME.

Upon the termination of the Voting Agreement, Ronald S. Lauder will cease to control the voting power of shares of Class A Common Stock owned by TW Investor and TW Investor will have 49.9% of the voting power of our shares.

Ronald S. Lauder Agreement to Vote in Favor of Proposals 2 and 3.  Under the Letter Agreement, Ronald S. Lauder, on behalf of certain of his affiliates and TW Investor, has agreed, subject to certain limitations, to vote all of our voting securities held by Mr. Lauder, his affiliates and TW Investor, which together represent 55.6% of our outstanding voting securities as of April 1, 2013 (the record date for the Meeting) in favor of the issuance and sale of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares to TW Investor (this Proposal 3) and to amend the Company’s Bye-laws and the conditions of its Memorandum to increase the Company’s authorized share capital from $17.6 million to $25.6 million by increasing the number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock from 200,000,000 shares to 300,000,000 shares (Proposal 2).

Use of Proceeds from Series B Private Placement

We expect to receive $200,000,000 in gross proceeds from the Series B Private Placement (or up to $242,884,000 if the underwriters in the Public Offering do not exercise the remainder of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A Common Stock and TW Investor exercises in full its option to acquire additional Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Shares described above).  We intend to use $200,000,000 in proceeds from the Series B Private Placement, together with $100,000,000 of the proceeds from the Public Offering, to fund the repurchase or redemption of a portion of the principal amount of our outstanding 11.625% Senior Notes due 2016.

46

Consequences if Shareholder Approval is Not Obtained

If shareholder approval is not obtained for this Proposal 3, we will not be able to complete the Series B Private Placement as contemplated by the Subscription Agreement because doing so would not be in compliance with the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, and such non-compliance could result in the delisting of our shares of Class A Common Stock from the NASDAQ Global Select Market.  In addition, shareholder approval is one of the conditions to the closing of the Series B Private Placement under the Subscription Agreement.

As a result, we would be required to seek alternative sources of capital to improve liquidity and reduce leverage, which may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

Even if shareholder approval of the issuance and sale of the shares is obtained, there is no assurance that such issuance and sale of the shares as contemplated by this Proposal will actually take place.  As described above, the Subscription Agreement contains certain closing conditions which the respective parties must meet before the parties are obligated to consummate the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement.  There can be no assurance that the parties will meet all of these closing conditions or that the parties will otherwise be able to consummate the closing.

No Appraisal Rights

Pursuant to Bermuda law, holders of shares of our Common Stock are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to this Proposal.

Vote Required; Recommendation

The approval of the issuance of the shares described in this Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, at the meeting, provided that a quorum is present.  Abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in determining the presence of a quorum, but are not counted as votes cast.

If the Meeting takes place prior to the termination of the Voting Agreement, Mr. Lauder, who would hold 55.6% of the voting power of our shares pursuant to the Voting Agreement as of the record date of the Meeting, has agreed to vote for this Proposal.  If the Meeting takes place after the termination of the Voting Agreement, TW Investor, which would hold 49.9% of the voting power of our shares as of the record date of the Meeting, has agreed to vote in favor of this Proposal.

Unless otherwise indicated, the accompanying form of Proxy will be voted FOR the issuance and sale of the shares described in this Proposal.

THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMEND A VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SERIES B CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED SHARES TO TW INVESTOR AS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL 4

SELECTION OF AUDITORS

At the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors recommends to the shareholders that Deloitte LLP be appointed to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2013.  In addition, the Board of Directors recommends to the shareholders that the shareholders authorize the Board of Directors, acting through the Audit Committee, to approve the auditors’ fee.

Representatives of Deloitte LLP will be invited to attend the Meeting in order to have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

Audit Fees

Deloitte LLP’s audit fees for auditing our annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 and reviewing our interim financial statements included in our filings on Forms 10-Q were $2,255,000 (2011: $2,574,000).

Audit-Related Fees

Deloitte LLP’s audit-related fees for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $555,000 (2011: $161,000). Audit-related fees were primarily incurred in respect of respect of debt offerings.

Tax Fees

Deloitte LLP’s tax fees for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $37,000 (2011: nil), and were primarily incurred in connection with an application for a grant for research and development subsidies.

All Other Fees

There were no other fees paid to Deloitte LLP for the year ended December 31, 2012 or the year ended December 31, 2011.

Policy on Pre-Approval of Services Provided by Deloitte LLP

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of the services in respect of Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees and All Other Fees is compatible with maintaining Deloitte LLP’s independence prior to the incurrence of such Fees in accordance with the Charter of the Audit Committee.  All engagements of the auditors are approved in advance by the Audit Committee.  At the beginning of the fiscal year, management presents for approval by the Audit Committee a range of services to be provided by the auditors and estimated fees for such services for the current year.  Any services to be provided by the auditors that are not included within such range of services are approved on a case-by-case basis by the Audit Committee.  Management provides reports to the Audit Committee on at least a quarterly basis on the status of the services provided and the level of fees incurred in respect of each service. We did not approve the incurrence of any fees pursuant to the exceptions to the pre-approval requirements set forth in 17 CFR 210.2-01(c)(7)(i)(C).

Vote Required; Recommendation

The appointment of Deloitte LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm in respect of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013 and the authorization of the Board of Directors, acting through the Audit Committee, to approve the auditors’ fee requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, at the Meeting, provided that a quorum is present in person or by proxy.  Abstentions will be included in determining the presence of a quorum, but are not counted as votes cast.  Unless otherwise indicated, the accompanying form of Proxy will be voted FOR the appointment of Deloitte LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm in respect of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013 and for the Board of Directors, acting through the Audit Committee, to approve the auditors’ fee.
