JumpTV Announces Agreement With AOL Video to Stream Live Free
International Television Programming

More Than 60 JumpTV Channels Now Available on AOL Video

TORONTO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 05/31/07 -- In recognition of the
rapidly expanding international and ethnic television viewing
audience in the United States, JumpTV (AIM: JTV) (TSX: JTV), the
world's leading broadcaster of ethnic television over the Internet,
announced that it has forged an agreement with AOL to stream live,
international television channels 24 hours a day, seven days a week,
which are now available at http://video.aol.com/jumptv.

More than 60 channels are currently available, the majority of which
are non-English language channels, and represent leading programming
from nearly 30 countries around the world. The number of JumpTV
channels available to AOL(R) Video users is expected to increase
significantly over the next several months.

These channels can be found in a new "International" section in the
primary navigation bar on the AOL Video portal. 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.

Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, president and chief operating officer of JumpTV,
said, "AOL Video is a leading player in the online video streaming
space. This partnership is an important milestone for JumpTV and a
key complement to the launch of our free-to-consumer, ad-supported
content offering in the U.S."

Mike "JB" John-Baptiste, head of global distribution for JumpTV,
added, "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," JB continued.

"We are excited to be able to offer JumpTV's exclusive, live
international television programming online given the growing demand
for worldwide news and entertainment features," said Fred McIntyre,
senior vice president, AOL Video. "We're pleased to be able to make
JumpTV's programming available to the underserved market of those
living in the United States whose native language is not English."

service include:
