 Exhibit B 

CODE OF CONDUCT PROVISIONS 

This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) helps ensure compliance with legal requirements and our standards of business
conduct. All employees, directors and contractors of LookSmart, Ltd. (the “Company”) are expected to read and understand this Code, uphold these standards in day-to-day activities, comply with all applicable policies and procedures,
and ensure that all agents and contractors are aware of, understand and adhere to these standards. 
 Nothing in this Code, in any company
policies and procedures, or in other related communications (verbal or written) creates or implies an employment contract or term of employment. We are committed to continuously reviewing and updating our policies and procedures. Therefore, this
Code is subject to modification. This Code supersedes all other such codes, policies, procedures, instructions, practices, rules or written or verbal representations to the extent they are inconsistent. 

Please sign the acknowledgment form at the end of this Code and return the form to the Human Resources Department indicating that you have received,
read, understand and agree to comply with the Code. The signed acknowledgment form will be located in your personnel file. 

General Standards of Conduct. The Company expects all employees, agents and contractors to exercise good judgment to ensure the
safety and welfare of employees, agents and contractors and to maintain a cooperative, efficient, positive, harmonious and productive work environment and business organization. These standards apply while working on our premises, at offsite
locations where our business is being conducted, at Company-sponsored business and social events, or at any other place where you are a representative of the Company. Employees, agents or contractors who engage in misconduct or whose performance is
unsatisfactory may be subject to corrective action, up to and including termination of employment or business relationship. You should review our employee handbook for more detailed information. 

Applicable Laws. All Company employees, agents and contractors must comply with all applicable laws, regulations, rules and
regulatory orders. Company employees located outside of the United States must comply with laws, regulations, rules and regulatory orders of the United States, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.S. Export Control Act, in addition
to applicable local laws. Each employee, agent and contractor must acquire appropriate knowledge of the requirements relating to his or her duties sufficient to enable him or her to recognize potential dangers and to know when to seek advice from
the Legal Department on specific Company policies and procedures. Violations of laws, regulations, rules and orders may subject the employee, agent or contractor to individual criminal or civil liability, as well as to discipline by the Company.
Such individual violations may also subject the Company to civil or criminal liability or loss of business. 
 Company
Spokespeople. Specific policies have been established regarding who may communicate information to the press and the financial analyst community. All inquiries or calls from the press and financial analysts should be referred to the
Company’s CEO, or CFO. The Company has designated its CEO, or CFO as official Company spokespeople for financial matters. 

 

 –13– 








 
These designees are the only people who may communicate with the press regarding the Company. NO EMPLOYEE OR CONTRACTOR OTHER THAN THE COMPANY’S CEO OR CFO MAY COMMUNICATE WITH THE PRESS
REGARDING LOOKSMART. 
 Obligations Under Securities Laws-“Insider” Trading. Obligations under the U.S.
securities laws apply to everyone. In the normal course of business, officers, employees, agents, contractors and consultants of the Company may come into possession of significant, sensitive information. This information is the property of the
Company — you have been entrusted with it. You may not profit from it by buying or selling securities yourself, or passing on the information to others to enable them to profit or for them to profit on your behalf. 

Maintaining and Managing Records. The purpose of this policy is to set forth and convey the Company’s business and legal
requirements in managing records, including all recorded information regardless of medium or characteristics. Records include paper documents, CDs, computer hard disks, email, floppy disks, microfiche, microfilm or all other media. The Company is
required by local, state, federal, foreign and other applicable laws, rules and regulations to retain certain records and to follow specific guidelines in managing its records. Civil and criminal penalties for failure to comply with such guidelines
can be severe for employees, agents, contractors and the Company, and failure to comply with such guidelines may subject the employee, agent or contractor to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment or business relationship
at the Company’s sole discretion. 
 Accounting Practices. The Company’s responsibilities to its stockholders
and the investing public require that all transactions be fully and accurately recorded in the Company’s books and records in compliance with all applicable laws. False or misleading entries, unrecorded funds or assets, or payments without
appropriate supporting documentation and approval are strictly prohibited and violate Company policy and the law. Additionally, all documentation supporting a transaction should fully and accurately describe the nature of the transaction and be
processed in a timely fashion. 
 Political Contributions. The Company reserves the right to communicate its position on
important issues to elected representatives and other government officials. It is the Company’s policy to comply fully with all local, state, federal, foreign and other applicable laws, rules and regulations regarding political contributions.
The Company’s funds or assets must not be used for, or be contributed to, political campaigns or political practices under any circumstances without the prior written approval of the Company’s General Counsel and, if required, the Board of
Directors. 
 Prohibition of Inducements. Under no circumstances may employees, agents or contractors offer to pay, make
payment, promise to pay, or issue authorization to pay any money, gift, or anything of value to customers, vendors, consultants, etc. that is perceived as intended, directly or indirectly, to improperly influence any business decision, any act or
failure to act, any commitment of fraud, or opportunity for the commission of any fraud. Inexpensive gifts, infrequent business meals, celebratory events and entertainment, provided that they are not excessive or create an appearance of impropriety,
do not violate this policy. Questions regarding whether a particular payment or gift violates this policy should be directed to the Human Resources Department or the Legal Department. 

 

 –14– 








 Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The Company requires full compliance with the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) by all of its employees, agents, and contractors. The anti-bribery and corrupt payment provisions of the FCPA make illegal any corrupt offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization to pay any money, gift, or anything
of value to any foreign official, or any foreign political party, candidate or official, for the purpose of: influencing any act or failure to act, in the official capacity of that foreign official or party; or inducing the foreign official or party
to use influence to affect a decision of a foreign government or agency, in order to obtain or retain business for anyone, or direct business to anyone. 

All Company employees, agents and contractors whether located in the United States or abroad, are responsible for FCPA compliance and the
procedures to ensure FCPA compliance. All managers and supervisory personnel are expected to monitor continued compliance with the FCPA to ensure compliance with the highest moral, ethical and professional standards of the Company. FCPA compliance
includes the Company’s policy on Maintaining and Managing Records in Section III.H of this Code. 
 Laws in most
countries outside of the United States also prohibit or restrict government officials or employees of government agencies from receiving payments, entertainment, or gifts for the purpose of winning or keeping business. No contract or agreement may
be made with any business in which a government official or employee of a government agency holds a significant interest, without the prior approval of the Company’s General Counsel. 

Customer Relationships. If your job puts you in contact with any Company customers or potential customers, act in a manner that
creates value for our customers and helps to build a relationship based upon trust. In all dealings with customers or potential customers, it is required that employees and contractors respect the intellectual property rights of third parties. In
particular, no employee or contractor shall knowingly sell a trademark as a keyword or other search element to a customer who does not own such trademark. The Company has provided products and services for many years and has built up significant
goodwill over that time. This goodwill is one of our most important assets, and the Company employees, agents and contractors must act to preserve and enhance our reputation. 

Payments or Gifts from Others. Under no circumstances may employees, agents or contractors accept any offer, payment, promise to
pay, or authorization to pay any money, gift, or anything of value from customers, vendors, consultants, etc. that is perceived as intended, directly or indirectly, to influence any business decision, any act or failure to act, any commission of
fraud, or opportunity for the commission of any fraud. Inexpensive gifts, infrequent business meals, celebratory events and entertainment, provided that they are not excessive or create an appearance of impropriety, do not violate this policy.
Questions regarding whether a particular payment or gift violates this policy are to be directed to the Human Resources Department or the Legal Department. 

Gifts given to suppliers or customers or prospective customers or suppliers or received from suppliers or customers should always be
appropriate to the circumstances and should never be of a kind that could create an appearance of impropriety. 
  

 –15– 








 Handling the Confidential Information of Others. The Company has many kinds of
business relationships with many companies and individuals. Sometimes, they will volunteer confidential information about their products or business plans to induce the Company to enter into a business relationship. At other times, we may request
that a third party provide confidential information to permit the Company to evaluate a potential business relationship with that party. Whatever the situation, we must take special care to handle the confidential information of others responsibly.
We handle such confidential information in accordance with our agreements with such third parties. See also the Company’s policy on Maintaining and Managing Records in Section III.H of this Code. For more details, please refer to your
Employment, Confidential Information and Arbitration Agreement. 
 Appropriate Nondisclosure Agreements. Confidential
information may take many forms. An oral presentation about a company’s product development plans may contain protected trade secrets. A customer list or employee list may be a protected trade secret. You should never accept information offered
by a third party that is represented as confidential, or which appears from the context or circumstances to be confidential, unless an appropriate nondisclosure agreement has been signed with the party offering the information. THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT
CAN PROVIDE NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS TO FIT ANY PARTICULAR SITUATION, AND WILL COORDINATE APPROPRIATE EXECUTION OF SUCH AGREEMENTS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY. Even after a nondisclosure agreement is in place, you should accept only the information
necessary to accomplish the purpose of receiving it, such as a decision on whether to proceed to negotiate a deal. If more detailed or extensive confidential information is offered and it is not necessary, for your immediate purposes, it should be
refused. 
 Need-to-Know. Once a third party’s confidential information has been disclosed to the Company, we have
an obligation to abide by the terms of the relevant nondisclosure agreement and limit its use to the specific purpose for which it was disclosed and to disseminate it only to other Company employees with a need to know the information. Every
employee, agent and contractor involved in a potential business relationship with a third party must understand and strictly observe the restrictions on the use and handling of confidential information. When in doubt, consult the Legal Department.

 Notes and Reports. When reviewing the confidential information of a third party under a nondisclosure agreement, it is
natural to take notes or prepare reports summarizing the results of the review and, based partly on those notes or reports, to draw conclusions about the suitability of a business relationship. Notes or reports, however, can include confidential
information disclosed by the other party and so should be retained only long enough to complete the evaluation of the potential business relationship. In addition, such notes or reports should be treated just as any other disclosure of confidential
information is treated: marked as confidential and distributed only to those the Company employees with a need to know.

 Competitive Information. You should never attempt to obtain a competitor’s
confidential information by improper means, and you should especially never contact a competitor regarding their confidential information. While the Company may, and does, employ former employees of competitors, we recognize and respect the
obligations of those employees not to use or disclose the confidential information of their former employers. 
 Government
Relations. It is the Company’s policy to comply fully with all applicable laws and regulations governing contact and dealings with government employees and public officials, and to adhere to high ethical, moral and legal standards of
business conduct. This policy includes strict compliance with all local, state, federal, foreign and other applicable laws, rules and regulations. If you have any questions concerning government relations, you should contact the Company’s Legal
Department. 
 Lobbying. Employees, agents or contractors whose work requires lobbying communication with any member or
employee of a legislative body or with any government official or employee in the formulation of legislation must have prior written approval of such activity from the Company’s General Counsel. Activity covered by this policy includes meetings
with legislators or members of their staffs or with senior executive branch officials. Preparation, research, and other background activities that are done in support of lobbying communication are also covered by this policy even if the
communication ultimately is not made. 
 Government Contracts. It is the Company’s policy to comply fully with all
applicable laws and regulations that apply to government contracting. It is also necessary to strictly adhere to all terms and conditions of any contract with local, state, federal, foreign or other applicable governments. 

Free and Fair Competition. Most countries have well-developed bodies of law designed to encourage and protect free and fair
competition. The Company is committed to obeying both the letter and spirit of these laws. These laws often regulate the Company’s relationships with its distributors, resellers, dealers, and customers. Competition laws generally address the
following areas: pricing practices (including price discrimination), discounting, terms of sale, credit terms, promotional allowances, secret rebates, exclusive dealerships or distributorships, product bundling, restrictions on carrying competing
products, termination and many other practices. 
 Competition laws also govern relationships between the Company and its
competitors. Employees, agents or contractors of the Company may not knowingly make false or misleading statements regarding its competitors or the products of its competitors, customers or suppliers. No employee, agent or contractor shall at any
time or under any circumstances enter into an agreement or understanding, written or oral, express or implied, with any competitor concerning prices, discounts, other terms or conditions of sale, profits or profit margins, costs, allocation of
product or geographic markets, allocation of customers, limitations on production, boycotts of customers or suppliers, or bids or the intent to bid or even discuss or exchange information on these subjects. Although the spirit of these laws, known
as “antitrust,” “competition,” or “consumer protection” or unfair competition laws, is straightforward, their application to particular situations can be quite complex. To ensure that the Company complies fully with
these laws, each of us should have a basic knowledge of them and involve the Legal Department when questionable situations arise.

 Industrial Espionage. It is the Company’s policy to lawfully compete in the
marketplace. This commitment to fairness includes respecting the rights of our competitors and abiding by all applicable laws in the course of competing. The purpose of this policy is to maintain the Company’s reputation as a lawful competitor
and to help ensure the integrity of the competitive marketplace. The Company expects its competitors to respect our rights to compete lawfully in the marketplace, and we must respect their rights equally. Company employees, agents and contractors
may not steal or unlawfully use the information, material, products, intellectual property, or proprietary or confidential information of anyone including suppliers, customers, business partners or competitors. 

Waivers. Any waiver of any provision of this Code with respect any agent or contractor must be approved in writing by the
Company’s General Counsel. 
 The matters covered in this Code are of the utmost importance to the Company, its
stockholders and its business partners, and are essential to the Company’s ability to conduct its business in accordance with its stated values. We expect all of our employees, agents, contractors and consultants to adhere to these rules.
