Notes and comments by Michael Werner Non-Stop Sales - Sweden Non-Stop Sales is a world sales company representing 25 independent film producers – Part of Millenium Media Group (est.1998) Stockholm. Current experience in VoD is limited for two reasons, – Rights are normally sold as part of all rights sales, – Direct to VoD : The investment is deemed too important versus potential results, Rights must be clearly defined or else they are not part of an agreement, – IFTA helped in clearing the standards (from “Internet rights” to clearly defined VoD rights), As sales agents we are always careful with limiting the license to either: – A language limitation, – IP address (territorial limitation, Main threats to domestic distributors: – Piracy and weak legal frameworks to protect rights-holders, Main opportunities for domestic distributors: – By always keeping your library in good shape, ease the access and delivery processes and you’ll be in a good position to benefit from new opportunities, – Niche marketing and distribution, Estoril 20103 Observations

Notes and comments by Michael Werner Non-Stop Sales – Sweden (2) We feel that local distributors are in a better position to manage VoD distribution as opposed to the sales agent (as part of all rights sales), As an all-rights sales company, we normally license VoD rights on an exclusive basis (on new content) to the local distributor. The local distributor normally gives non-exclusive agreements to local platforms. We as sales agent ask for a better reporting from local distributors; however VoD is not the only problem… Estoril 20104 Conclusions
