MEDIAAGENCY RECOMMENDATION LETTER Tyler Schaeffer Page 2 October 27, 2011 To Whom It May Concern, I worked with Tyler Schaeffer for three years when I was President, CEO of Mindshare NA. During that time Tyler ran the American Express account for Mindshare responsible for both Domestic and International aspects of the assignment. He interfaced directly with John Hayes Chief Marketing Of鍖cer for Amex, Nancy Smith who guided the media efforts and the individuals responsible for the brands at the company. Tyler did an excellent job demonstrating leadership, creativity, and understanding of Amexs business and the needs of their different business units and a work ethic that is second to none. He developed creative media plans and ideas when challenged by the client to constantly do it differently tomorrow than they did today. He brought energy, insights, and a wonderful attitude to his internal team as well as to the clients. I think that Tyler can be a valuable addition to an organization bringing knowledge, energy and a positive attitude to work every day. Sincerely, Marc Goldstein Media Solutions LLC
MEDIA COMPANY RECOMMENDATION LETTER Tyler Schaeffer Page 3 30 Rockefeller Plaza Room 75-494N1 New York, New York 10112 212 664-7821 gary.freilich@nbcuni.com A Division of National Broadcasting Company, Inc. Gary E. Freilich NBC News Senior Vice President Wednesday, October 5, 2011 Im writing you this letter on behalf of Tyler Schaeffer. Im asked to write letters of support a fair amount. On occasion, I politely decline because at the end of the day, if I write a letter of support for a sub par candidate, it could be a poor reflection on my company and me. No such problem with Tyler. Im only too happy to wax on poetic about this guy. I first met Tyler when he was managing the Samsung US account at Foote Cone & Belding. Samsung at this point was more of a bit player in the US market with designs on tackling Sony. Tyler had heard about my group at NBC; the Strategic partnership Group and quickly realized that to make good on his growth charge from his client, hed need to come up with something BIG. Im glad he brought us in. Ive noticed that in his portfolio, he includes reference to a quote that appeared in the GE Annual Report that then NBC Network President Randy Falco made about our Samsung relationship. Out of humility, Im told that to others he credits both of us for the overall deal. Thats not really true. That project; big enough to warrant mention in the annual report of the sixth largest company in America was not only Tylers idea, creation and strategic execution, but the blueprint for its success, which jump started Samsungs accession to the consumer electronics top and has been copied by other groups within NBC and many other networks. Key elements of the partnership he created between Samsung and NBC are so strong and so good for BOTH companies, they remain in place today. Beyond that, as I followed Tylers movement to Mindshare, I know from my colleagues around NBC that his strategic marketing and media innovations continued with various consumer and business oriented NBCU properties, including several projects for American Express that I recommended to my colleagues here that they call Tyler; he just gets it. My point is that while the term strategic marketer has become a bit of a clich辿 these days, Tyler Schaeffer embodies it. I come across a lot of media buyers in my work. Id say easily dozens per year. Mostly spots and dots kind of folks. Tyler Schaeffer is a strategist and negotiator of the finest kind. He is a believer in its possible for there to be two winners in every negotiation. Because of his expertise, but more importantly, his overall positive outlook and can-do demeanor people enjoy doing business with him. Hes a tough but fair negotiator. Id do business with him wherever he goes. Please feel free to call me with any questions about his candidacy. Best regards, Gary Freilich

MEDIA COMPANY RECOMMENDATION LETTER Tyler Schaeffer Page 5 Rob Gregory Rob.Gregory@NewsweekDailyBeast.com Subject: !Professional Recommendation for Tyler Schaeffer Date: !October 5, 2011 8:50:55 AM EDT Rob Gregory of Newsweek Daily Beast here. I'd like to serve as a professional reference for Tyler Schaeffer. Tyler and I have worked together on a number of campaigns and projects, going back about 20 years, involving the major brands that Tyler handled, and media properties I have been fortunate to be associated with, including Scienti鍖c American, Gourmet Magazine, Rolling Stone and The Plum TV Network. I consider Tyler to be at the very top of the "food chain" of marketing and media pro's. Here are a few reasons why: -Tyler immerses himself in what's new and innovative-- hugely important now, for obvious reasons. -He's very creative when it comes to original branded content, unique ideas, bespoke campaigns, and the like. -He almost literally takes on the positioning and branding persona of his clients, which results in very accurate representation of objectives and strategies to media partners, which in turn results in campaigns that are on-message and very effective. -He is able to handle complexity, the increasingly quantitative elements of advertising and media, and a massive amount of work鍖ow. He is cool under pressure, and never loses sight of his client's best interests. -He has a positive outlook on the business and on life, which makes him a person that's a delight to work with, and brings out the best in media partnerships, and in people. Please let me know if I can help further, or expand on any of these points. Tyler would be a terri鍖c hire for you.

Tyler Schaeffer Page 6 Tyler Schaeffers keynote speech on Global Digital Marketing Trends at American Business Medias (ABM) annual worldwide conference in May 2009 (press article) _______________________________________________________________________ May 3-6, 2009 Innovation is Key to Success in Today's Marketing Environment The marketing challenge is doing more with less," Tyler Schaeffer began in his keynote address, kicking off American Business Media's first-ever Global B-to-B Day on Sunday, May 3, in Amelia Island, FL. "It's about innovation and customers' priorities. For clients in todays economy, it's about frugality over frivolity. Spend less, cut costs, and think maintenance versus expansion." Schaeffer (pictured), Managing Director of Global Client Leadership at MindShare Worldwide, addressed an audience of over 100 business-to-business media company senior executives from around the world on global marketing trends to move your business forward and make money in a down economy. The challenge for media companies, he said, is creating marketing innovations that drive business results. He stressed that the media industry needs to counteract the current economic environment with innovation, by polling and informing customers, focusing on a few big bets that really matter, resizing your products and aligning with key partners. Media companies need to focus on making their brand be the most valued in its category and be a strategic, consultative business partner for their clients. Schaeffer also discussed the various opportunities in digital media, including the need to develop a "digital attitude," which will help drive the platforms you use to present your brand and why you use them. His "seven digital media trends" (addressable, portable, searchable, social, interactive, transactional and everywhere) can be used to shape this attitude, with social media at the top of the list as the most important trend for positioning your brand. Additionally, he added that content is still king and should enhance your message, leading to relevant distribution channels. "It's all about the right message, target and channels at the right time," Schaeffer concluded. "It's not about platforms, but about ideas driven by consumer attitudes." * * * * *
