Q3 2010
AdoTube In-Video Ad Format Index

AdoTube serves ads on over 5k+ publishers sites and serves over 50MM to 75MM in-video
ad impressions per week.
This format index provides an overview of the effectiveness of our many different in-stream
video ad formats over 2009, Q1 2010, Q2 2010, and Q3 2010.
Procedure:
We collected and analyzed data from a sample of 1.9 Billion+ impressions deemed to be
statistically relevant, taking advertising verticals, video content, and type of targeting into
account. This was then split into four distinct categories:
• Branded Overlay
• Interactive Overlay
• Standard Pre-Roll
• Polite Pre-Roll®
Additionally, we broke these results out over 17 different verticals to analyze performance on
an industry by industry basis.
The following numbers are based on results derived from AdoTube’s Network only and do not
represent the in-video ad space as whole.

View-Through Rates:
Polite Pre-Roll® Gains, Standard Pre-Roll Declines

Q3 has seen a nominal improvement in the Polite Pre-Roll® View-Through Rate, and a
notable decline between 2-3% for the Standard Pre-Roll View-Through Rate and Retention
Rate from Q2.
A simple 4.21% differential between a 100% View-Thru Rate for the Polite Pre-Roll® and the
Standard Pre-Roll highlights the fact that amount of viewers who end up watching all of the
Polite Pre-Roll® is on parity with the Standard Pre-Roll, with an added bonus of a 36% lower
abandonment rate for Publishers.

Vertical Performance by Format - CTR
       CPG and Web Services Lead CTR via Creative and Targeting Optimization

       Broken out by verticals, the variance in performance for Branded Overlays and
       Standard Pre-Rolls was negligible in Q3. However, with the Interactive Overlays and the
       Polite Pre-Roll®, there was a much greater variation between industries due in part to
       best practices in creative and targeting optimization. For Interactive Overlay, CPG lead
       with a 3.06% CTR, 124% higher than the next vertical, and with the Polite Pre-Roll®,
       Web Services had a phenomenal 7.86% CTR, 75% higher than CPG which still had a
       very respectable 4.39% CTR.

  • 2. Q3 2010 AdoTube In-Video Ad Format Index AdoTube serves ads on over 5k+ publishers sites and serves over 50MM to 75MM in-video ad impressions per week. This format index provides an overview of the effectiveness of our many different in-stream video ad formats over 2009, Q1 2010, Q2 2010, and Q3 2010. Procedure: We collected and analyzed data from a sample of 1.9 Billion+ impressions deemed to be statistically relevant, taking advertising verticals, video content, and type of targeting into account. This was then split into four distinct categories: • Branded Overlay • Interactive Overlay • Standard Pre-Roll • Polite Pre-Roll® Additionally, we broke these results out over 17 different verticals to analyze performance on an industry by industry basis. The following numbers are based on results derived from AdoTube’s Network only and do not represent the in-video ad space as whole. © 2007-10 AdoTube, Inc. – All Rights Reserved 2

A simple 4.21% differential between a 100% View-Thru Rate for the Polite Pre-Roll® and the Standard Pre-Roll highlights the fact that amount of viewers who end up watching all of the Polite Pre-Roll® is on parity with the Standard Pre-Roll, with an added bonus of a 36% lower abandonment rate for Publishers.
