The total agreement is valued at USD 4.38 billion. - Following the fifth visit of the IOC Coordination Commission in September 2011, representatives of the United National Environment Programme (UNEP) and ecological organisations in Sochi met for a series of meetings. The main objective of these meetings was to discuss the challenges for the region s ecosystem that are emerging during the preparations of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games. - The IOC President also had a meeting with the Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). The two organisations signed a Memorandum of Understanding, whereby each of them will seek to identify possible areas of work particularly related to drug abuse as well as corruption in sport and crime among young people. - The Entourage Commission headed by Sergey Bubka met for the second time at the IOC Headquarters and the Olympic Programme and Marketing Commissions held meetings under the chairmanship of IOC Members Franco Carraro and Gerhard Heiberg respectively.

In concluding the discussions about the International Olympic Committee, the Council expressed its opinion that the position of the Winter Sports and the FIS within the international sports movement is not adequately recognised by the IOC and efforts will be undertaken to strengthen the position of FIS. 5.1 Youth Olympic Games 2012 in Innsbruck The fourth meeting of the IOC Coordination Commission, chaired by FIS President Gian Franco Kasper took place in Innsbruck from 4 th to 6 th September 2011. Additionally the Chef de Mission Seminar took place just before from 1 st to 3 rd September at which he was also present. All Winter Youth Olympic Games Ambassadors for Innsbruck 2012 have been confirmed with Freestyle Skier Kevin Rolland (FRA) recently confirmed, joining Benni Raich (AUT), Lindsey Vonn (USA) as well as Figure Skater Yuna Kim (KOR) and a famous Ice Hockey player to be announced shortly. Winter Youth Olympic Games 2016 In November 2011, the International Olympic Committee will elect the organiser of the 2 nd Winter Youth Olympic Games in 2016. The only candidate is Norway with the City of Lillehammer, which successfully hosted the XVII Olympic Winter Games in 1994. The next Summer Youth Olympic Games will take place in Nanjiing (CHN) in 2016. 5.2 Olympic Winter Games 2014 in Sochi The 6 th meeting of the IOC Coordination Commission took place in Sochi from 14 th to 16 th September 2011. The Olympic test phase will start in earnest during the upcoming winter with both Men s and Ladies FIS Alpine World Cup Downhill and Super Combined competitions taking place on consecutive weeks in February 2012. Events on the Programme of the Olympic Winter Games 2014 At meetings of the IOC Executive Board in April and July 2011, it confirmed the programme of new events for the Sochi 2014 Games with Ladies Ski Jumping, Freestyle Skiing Halfpipe, Slopestyle, Snowboard Slopestyle and Snowboard Parallel Slalom all included. The Alpine Team Parallel competition was regrettably not included. Additionally the other sports added to the programme are Biathlon Mixed Relay, Figure Skating Team Event and Luge Team Relay. The proposal to include the Snowboard Parallel Slalom was made directly by the Russian NOC and the Government to the IOC. It was not one of the events proposed by the FIS Congress. At its Meeting in Schladming, the Council expressed its concern that the IOC had accepted a proposal for the potential inclusion of a new event directly from the host NOC respectively the government and trust that such a process will not occur again in the future. Thereafter, at its meeting in Daegu (KOR) at the end of August, the IOC Executive Board approved the Qualification Systems for the Olympic Winter Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Schladming (AUT), November 2011-8 -

(Association of Recognised International Federations) and the IOC Executive Board. The theme of the SportAccord Convention is Why Sport Matters. 8. Financial Matters 8.1 Report of the Finance Commission Sverre Seeberg, Chairman of the Finance Commission and FIS Treasurer reported on the accounts per 30 th June 2011 and the updated figures at the end of September. The currency exchange rates have severely affected the current status of the FIS finances due to the collapse of the uro and US Dollar against the Swiss Franc, with a loss of nearly CHF 10 million booked following the sale of securities in accordance with the FIS investment strategy that is being implemented by Credit Suisse and UBS. Furthermore, the present currency valuation difference is an additional minus CHF 10 million, although this figure has nevertheless improved from CHF 11,5 million at the end of June 2011. On the positive side both expenditure and income are better than the budget for the time being and efforts are continually being made to make inroads into losses caused by the financial markets and currency valuation losses. Following a proposal of the bank, there have been minor adjustments made to the FIS Investment Rules to ensure FIS adopts a conservative strategy with its financial assets and manages the currency situation as effectively as possible, notably with uro and US Dollar assets. Furthermore, the Council agreed that the Finance Commission studies the end of period accounts once these are closed in the New Year and reports back to the Council with a proposal to present to the FIS Congress 2012 concerning the accounts from the 2010-2011 period and the budget for 2012-2013 within the available means of FIS that also supports the National Ski Association s activities. 8.2 Requests for financial support from the Technical Committees The Council approved proposals from a number of Technical Committees for a database project, rules workshop before the FIS Congress 2012 and the Committee for European Questions Working Group. 8.3 FIS Solidarity and Aid & Promotion for Developing Nations On proposal of the FIS Finance Commission, the Council decided to support a number of projects and requests for assistance that conform with the criteria for FIS Solidarity applications from the National Ski Associations of Algeria/Morocco, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Hungary, India, and the Ukraine. The Council tabled the proposal of the Organising Committee in Val di Fiemme for support for a Ski Jumping training camp in favour of a common proposal from the Nordic Coordination Group in spring 2012 to have a joint Ski Jumping and Nordic Combined training camp programme and support both discipline s activities as part of the Aid & Promotion activities.

the rules that eligible National Ski Associations are only those with one vote and there are other nations, which could justifiably be considered as requiring support in these disciplines. Furthermore, the Council decided to review the analysis of support provided to different National Ski Associations from FIS Solidarity and Aid & Promotion at its next Meeting. 8.4 Marc Hodler Foundation The Council acknowledged the report of Vice-President Janez Kocijancic in his capacity as President of the Marc Hodler Foundation who stated that the institution is fulfilling its mission. The current financial position has also been affected by the currency valuations. 8.5 FIS Travel Service AG The present financial situation of FIS Travel Service AG is stable despite currency losses, with a high number of teams training in the Southern Hemisphere. 8.6 FIS Marketing AG The report in relation to FIS Marketing AG is under Item 9.2. 9.

9.1 Bring Children to the Snow At its Meeting in Schladming, the Council reviewed the latest activities in the Bring Children to the Snow Campaign and the work that is being carried out building up to the inaugural FIS World Snow Day on 22 nd January 2012. Key activities that have taken place since June 2011 include: Activating Snow Desire: International Communication Campaign Less than 100 days remain until the inaugural World Snow Day on 22 nd January 2012. A campaign update was given at the 9 th Youth and Children Seminar in addition to several Committees at the Technical Committee Meetings in Zurich in October 2011 and the World Snow Day was the main topic of the Youth and Children Seminar which saw more than 70 participants from 45 National Ski Associations. Meetings and partnership discussions with companies such as Intersport, Halti, Milka and Eurosport have taken place. Intersport is willing to support the programme with focus on selected events initially in Austria, Switzerland and France for the inaugural World Snow Day. Based on results of the initial edition, negotiations will continue with Intersport International for broader support in 2013 and beyond. A TV trailer is in production for use by broadcasters from beginning of January 2012 and both EBU and Eurosport have pledged support. Yukim Zhang from China has joined the World Snow Day team on 1 st October to help out in this very important phase building up to the first World Snow Day. Kim is living in Switzerland studying for a Master in Sports Administration and Technology (MSA) at the International Academy of Sports Science and Technology (AISTS) in Lausanne. The central online platform www.world-snow-day.com launched in June. At report time, 50 Organisers from some 20 countries have signed up to stage activities on 22 nd January 2012. Six percent are representing the National Ski Associations. Registration remains open until 15 th December 2011. Since June several tools and promotional pieces have been developed for use by World Snow Day Organisers. More tools are continuously being developed and will be accessible as soon as they are finalised. The live profile update system for Organisers is online to promote their events. FIS SnowKidz Award 2012: Based on feedback from the first award presented at the FIS Congress in Antalya 2010, the rules were refined. Each National Ski Association may apply with one project and three out of the eight best nominated projects have to represent Aid & Promotion nations. The 2 nd FIS SnowKidz Award will be presented at the FIS Congress in Kangwonland (KOR) 2012. The deadline for NSA applications is on 15 th February 2012. Enabling Snow Experience: National Activity Campaign A few events taking place on 22 nd January 2012 will be selected as World Snow Day case study events. As an example, the last day of the first Winter Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Schladming (AUT), November 2011-13 -
Youth Olympic Games 2012 will also see the first celebration of the World Snow Day in Innsbruck. During the FIS Technical Committee Meetings in Zurich new knowledge transfer projects in the Youth and Children s Sub-Committee for Cross- Country Skiing were established. Working groups representing different nations will collect information and documentation on how and what kind of children s activities can take place in connection with FIS events or other national events. The selected information will be provided in FIS style to the nations as soon as possible. Following the next committee meeting in Korea a similar project is planned on the topic of education. The National Ski Associations play a very important role for the campaign and the knowledge transfer tools are continuing to develop amongst other things. Upcoming Activities Finalise preparations for the first edition of World Snow Day Continue World Snow Day website and toolkit development Maintain close contact with National Ski Associations, World Snow Day Organisers and other stakeholders Publish regular World Snow Day newsletters Launch final World Snow Day communication and marketing activities Prepare 2 nd FIS SnowKidz Award, deadline 15 th February 2012 Manage FIS SnowKidz Meeting Points for season 2012/2013 Plan second edition of World Snow Day in 2013 Further develop FIS Bring Children to the Snow campaign 9.2 FIS Marketing AG The Council acknowledged the report of Christian Pirzer, CEO of FIS Marketing AG and the progress being made with the various projects, including the confirmation of the title sponsorship of the Audi Ski Cross World Cup that is extending its engagement in addition to the Audi FIS Alpine Ski World Cup. Council Member Peter Schroecksnadel expressed concern that in his opinion FIS Marketing AG is selling inventory that it does not own and its valuation does not cover the expenses of Organisers, such as with the Ski Cross World Cup. Council Member Patrick Smith requested that the Council review the business and strategic plan of FIS Marketing AG in order that the philosophy of FIS is also considered, such as the organisation of events on a global basis and not just in the locations that are preferred by commercial agencies and sponsors. 10. Anti-Doping 10.1 International Doping Cases The Council acknowledged the report of the Chairman of the FIS Doping Panel, Patrick Smith. Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Schladming (AUT), November 2011-14 -
On 22 nd August 2011, the FIS Doping Panel chaired by Patrick Smith with members Vice President Sverre Seeberg and Council Member Roman Kumpost, issued its decision in the case of the Estonian Cross-Country skier Andrus Veerpalu (EST) and has found that he committed an anti-doping rule violation contrary to article 2.1 of the FIS Anti-Doping Rules. Andrus Veerpalu tested positive for the use of recombinant human growth hormone (recgh), during an out-of-competition doping control on 29 th January 2011 in Otepää (EST). The athlete is ineligible to participate in any capacity in an event or activity authorised or organised by FIS or any National Ski Association for a period of three (3) years, until 23 rd February 2014. The FIS Doping Panel decision may be appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) within 21 days and an appeal has now been submitted. 10.2 National Doping Cases In accordance with the World Anti-Doping Code, FIS is not entitled to review and/or amend decisions of doping cases from tests that have been carried out by the National Anti-Doping Agencies, but both FIS and WADA may appeal any decisions to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in the event that either organisations believe that an inappropriate decision has been taken (in accordance with the relevant rules and deadlines).

Following requests from stakeholders for additional guidance on what constitutes best practice for testing programmes, WADA has advised that there needs to be more emphasis on the collection of blood samples and that not less than 10% of all samples collected are blood specimens. FIS President Gian Franco Kasper, in his capacity as a member of the WADA Executive Board informed the Council that the number of EPO tests will be considerably increased on a global basis.

12. FIS World Cup Calendars 2011/2012 to 2015/2016 On proposal of the respective Technical Committees concerned, the Council confirmed the minor modifications to the FIS World Cup Calendars 2011/2012 (please see following pages for the respective calendars). Furthermore the Council approved the calendars for the following seasons noting the following comments to the FIS Alpine World Cup calendars: - Consideration for technical races in the Czech Republic and/or Slovakia in the event a date becomes available in the Ladies calendars. - Council Member Peter Schroecksnadel stated that Austria should be awarded an additional Men s race in 2013/14 and 2014/15. He added that the races in Soelden are not counted as Austrian races, since the date and location is the decision and choice of FIS. - Council Member Michel Vion raised the issue of Chamonix which has been a classic Organiser since the creation of the FIS Alpine World Cup and is an iconic location. It features in the calendar in 2011/12 and then not again until at least 2016/17. - The possibility should be studied of including a regular evening race for the FIS Alpine World Cup giant slalom or slalom on a weekday evening, for example on Tuesday in order to try to gain acceptance by the television networks. The North American races are broadcast in the evening in Europe, so there is already exposure for viewers following races on television at this time. Night competitions in Europe are very popular with spectators on site. Short Summary FIS Council Meeting, Schladming (AUT), November 2011-22 -
