safeharbor statement During this presentation we may make various remarks about the company’s future expectations, plans

and prospects, which constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions

under The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from

those indicated by these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including

those discussed in blinkx’s most recent prospectus, which is on file with the Financial Services Authority.

Any forward-looking statements represent our views only as of today and should not be relied upon as

representing our views as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update forward-looking

statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if our

estimates change and, therefore, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as

representing our views as of any date subsequent to today.

During this call we may be referring to non-IFRS financial measures. These non-IFRS measures are not

prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A reconciliation of the non-IFRS

financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures will be made available in the Investor

Relations section of our website, www.blinkx.com, under the heading Investors.

• Fifth anniversary of the IPO:

– Online video advertising delivered on its promise

– Unique technology provided blinkx a head start in this accelerating sector

– Execution of key partnerships enabled blinkx to garner an unfair share of the

growing market

• Looking Forward:

– Online video advertising is set to continue growth

– Proliferation of devices and potential increase in the switch to digital spend may

provide further upside

• With content, advertisers, technology and now reach, blinkx is well
