JumpTV, AOL Align for International Programming

TORONTO, May 31: JumpTV, an online broadcaster of channels
from around the world, has reached a deal to stream a selection of its
offerings on AOL.

More than 60 channels from almost 30 countries are currently
available through AOL Video, with that number expected to increase
significantly over the coming months. These channels can be found in a new
"International" section on the AOL Video portal. They include Abu
Dhabi TV from the United Arab Emirates, HUM TV from Pakistan, Kenya’s KBC
Channel 1, S1 News in India, and Tele Universo Canal 29 from the Dominican
Republic.

The launch of JumpTV on AOL Video coincides with JumpTV's
free-to-consumer launch in the United States and marks a change from a
subscription-only service to a free, ad-supported online video service for some
of its content in the U.S.

Mike "JB" John-Baptiste, the head of global
distribution for JumpTV, noted, "We targeted AOL as our first mainstream
U.S. distribution partner for free, live TV because AOL has especially loyal
users, an iconic brand, and unmatched experience in online video programming.
When viewers watch music videos, sports, news, political debates, talk shows,
telenovelas and other entertainment programs from their homeland, in their
native tongue, they are very emotionally engaged. This represents a unique
advertising opportunity for many of the world's top brands to reach exceedingly
passionate viewers who have tremendous brand loyalty.”
