Content Express(TM) Maritime Platform Ready to Implement

Live TV Channels and Video on Demand for Ships at Sea

On 27 August 2014, Motive Television PLC (AIM: MTV), the technology provider to broadcasters and pay television operators, announced that its 100% owned subsidiary, Motive Television Services Limited signed an Agreement with Twin Peak S.A of Athens, Greece (Twin Peak) to develop its proprietary Content Express(TM) technology for deployment in the global Maritime industry.

The Company is pleased to announce today that Motive has completed the development and testing of this new platform at our engineering centres in Barcelona and Casablanca, and the product is scheduled for an initial deployment on ferries in Greece during Q1 2015.

Integrated with Twin Peak's VoDo technology, the new Motive platform will provide television channels, video-on-demand (VOD) movies and TV content to the rapidly growing demand for BYOD (bring-your-own-device) on commercial ships, private yachts, oil rigs, ferries, and cruise ships worldwide. It will have the advantage of providing television to the television and mobile devices through a single server with a satellite feed at a significantly lower cost than other solutions currently on the market.

The agreement with Twin Peak S.A. contains a share of net revenues for Motive with a minimum guarantee in the first twelve months, subject to certain cumulative income benchmarks being achieved.

Leonard M Fertig, CEO of Motive, commented, "The completion of this new application of Content Express(TM) and its extension to the maritime market opens up a huge global opportunity for Motive. We are excited to see the first deployment about six months after starting the project."
