Executive Summary

• DTT represents the largest channel distribution opportunity in Spain– Already at 96% coverage and 69% penetration– Compares to Pay TV at roughly 27% penetration

• Important to secure and maintain a foothold in this market today, but requires a significant investment

– In the near-term: Growth in ad revenues has been slower for smaller channels Fixed fees for distribution (in excess of €4.5MM per year) is difficult to offset

– In the long-term: Ad revenues are expected to grow rapidly with the April ‘10 analogue changeover

and full audience migration Players that come late to the game will find a limited number of slots being bid-up.

UK provides a relevant example of DTT slot prices increasing three-fold

• Partnering with Sony offers significant strategic advantages– Defray cost in the early, ramp-up phase– Combine programming resources to drive channel rank– Leverage Sony’s local expertise and relationships with advertisers

DTT Ad Revenue Opportunity

Opportunity to capitalize on a growing ad market

• April 2010 analogue to digital changeover will help eliminate traditional impediments to growth in DTT advertising revenues

– Entrenched channel oligopoly will lose incentive (and ability) to concentrate audience and ad revenue in analogue market

– Media buyers will be offered a more robust bouquet of DTT channels

• Significant growth will be driven by:– Analogue TV viewers and channels will fully migrate to DTT

– Ad revenues will migrate along with TV viewers and channels

– Channels will be competing for TV viewers on DTT with compelling content offerings

– Media buyers and advertisers will focus on channels that have a growing audience base

Partnership Opportunity

• Access to one of a few available free DTT slots– Majority of current slots are captive to major broadcasters

– Only limited additional free slots available for sub-license after digital changeover

8 of 12 new slots will likely go to major broadcasters used for their own stations (or if sub-licensed, likely at a much higher price than Veo is charging)

Portion of 4 slots for Veo and Net we expect will be used for themselves 1-2 slots may be available for sub-license for free channels and will require bidding

against major U.S. media conglomerates

• Less expensive method of entry– Near-term opportunity to split expenses (including €4.5MM fixed fees per year to

Veo, programming and other expenses)

– Early entry significantly less expensive than when slots are bid up

• Ability to leverage Sony brand, market expertise, and content

– SET established as a top 10 channel

– Strong relationship with advertisers

– Deep library of TV and film content that can be utilized for the channel

Partnering with Sony provides…
