YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE ""FOR'' THE RATIFICATION OF
THE APPOINTMENT OF KPMG LLP AS TRAVELZOO'S PRINCIPAL INDEPENDENT AUDI-
TORS FOR THE YEAR 2005.
Voting
Under the Delaware General Corporation Law and our certiÑcate of incorporation and bylaws, the
presence, in person or represented by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our stock
is necessary to constitute a quorum of stockholders to take action at the Annual Meeting. Once a quorum of
stockholders is established, the aÇrmative vote of a plurality of the shares, which are present in person or
represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, is required to elect each director. The aÇrmative vote of a
majority of the shares entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy in favor of any other matter properly
brought before the Annual Meeting is required to approve of such action.
Shares represented by proxies which are marked ""vote withheld'' with respect to the election of any
person to serve on the Board of Directors will not be considered in determining whether such a person has
received the aÇrmative vote of a plurality of the shares. Shares represented by proxies that are marked
""abstain'' with respect to any other proposal will not be considered in determining whether such proposal has
received the aÇrmative vote of a majority of the shares and such proxies will not have the eÅect of a ""no''
vote.
Shares represented by proxies which deny the proxy-holder discretionary authority to vote on any other
proposal will not be considered in determining whether such proposal has received the aÇrmative vote of a
majority of the shares and such proxies will not have the eÅect of a ""no'' vote.
We know of no matters to come before the Annual Meeting except as described in this Proxy Statement.
If any other matters properly come before the Annual Meeting, the proxies solicited hereby will be voted on
such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons voting such proxies.
Stockholder Proposals for the 2006 Annual Meeting
Proposals of eligible stockholders intended to be presented at the 2006 Annual Meeting, currently
scheduled to be held on June 7, 2006, must be received by us by January 2, 2006 for inclusion in our proxy
statement and proxy relating to that meeting. Upon receipt of any such proposal, we will determine whether or
not to include such proposal in the proxy statement and proxy in accordance with regulations governing the
solicitation of proxies.
If a stockholder wishes to present a proposal at Travelzoo's Annual Meeting in the year 2006 or to
nominate one or more directors and the proposal is not intended to be included in Travelzoo's proxy statement
relating to that meeting, the stockholder must give advance written notice to Travelzoo by March 15, 2006.
