			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="font-style:italic; padding-bottom:10px">Places Digital Out-of-Home at the Heart of Social and Mobile Engagement</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:10px"><font style="font-weight:bold">SAN FRANCISCO – April 28, 2011</font> — Today RMG Networks CEO Garry McGuire delivered the keynote remarks during the 2011 Customer Engagement Technology Worldwide (CETW) Conference at San Francisco’s Moscone Convention Center. McGuire’s speech entitled “Engaging Your Customers, Out-of-Home, Along the Path-to-Purchase” provided a snapshot of today’s media landscape and talked about how advertisers are using innovative technologies to engage people throughout their lives as they work, shop and play.
</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:10px">
In addition to providing insight into this quickly evolving industry, Mr. McGuire used the stage to unveil some big news at the Moscone Center. Four groundbreaking announcements were included in his keynote:
</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:15px">
<p style="font-weight:bold; padding-bottom:10px">First Ever NFC-Enabled Place-based Media Network with Blue Bite</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:10px">
Making use of the emerging Near Field Communications (NFC) mobile technology, RMG and technology partner Blue Bite launched a first-of-its-kind place-based media network that exists entirely on mobile devices. Test locations for this new media network have been deployed around San Francisco with roll out to New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Boston in the second half of 2011. Search giant Google is pursuing a similar platform as NFC is incorporated into its Android phones but the RMG/Blue Bite offering combines the power of digital out-of-home media to activate consumers at the point of purchase with the exciting new NFC technology that enables them to act. Inaugural sponsor HOTELS.COM has signed on to prove the effectiveness of this exciting new platform.
</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:15px">
“We are enthusiastic about the launch of mTag and our NFC capability with RMG Networks, staying true to our core belief in the innovative use of leading-edge technologies to increase value for consumers, our advertising clients and our partners,” said Mikhail Damiani, CEO and Co-Founder of Blue Bite.
</p>
<p style="font-weight:bold; padding-bottom:10px">
RMG and Groupon to Bring Daily Deals to DOOH</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:15px">
Leveraging the power of place, and the context of time, RMG has partnered with Groupon to deliver timely and relevant offers to millions of active consumers when they are away-from-home and making purchase decisions. This first-of-its-kind affiliate relationship in the DOOH space will bring daily Groupon offers to over 75,000 digital screens and reach 35 million viewers each month. Consumers will be able to act on daily deals using RMG’s recent deployment of mTag NFC technology. The RMG Groupon offers will roll out across the company’s media networks including: NYTimes.com Today, Fitness Entertainment Network, Point-of-Care, and Executive Media Network. RMG locations will begin launching Groupon deals on May 16th, 2011.
</p>
<p style="font-weight:bold; padding-bottom:10px">
First National Rollout of Location-Based Services for DOOH with LocaModa and Foursquare</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:10px">
To deliver even greater utility for venues and new customer engagement opportunities, RMG taps into the power of social media technology to help venue owners grow their businesses. Along with social media partner LocaModa, RMG is launching a location-based service (LBS) using Foursquare that is designed to filter social streams and allow advertisers to further engage with customers at the point of purchase. This new product is re-thinking location-based services as a platform and helping venues and marketers grow their businesses.
</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:15px">
LocaModa CEO Stephen Randall added, “RMG’s leadership position in the digital out-of-home industry and their continued expansion of place-based social media across their networks, is helping to define the future of the digital out home industry. The marriage of place-based screens to social media in a venue-safe manner, makes it much easier for venues and advertisers to derive utility as well as engagement.”
</p>
<p style="font-weight:bold; padding-bottom:10px">
New Interaction Capabilities: Use Your Mobile Device to Control the Screen in Real-Time with Screen Reach</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:10px">
Through a technology partnership with Screen Reach, RMG is able to create new opportunities for people to use mobile devices to engage with the DOOH screen. In the coming months this partnership should result in campaigns that turn passive media viewers into engaged participants. The Screen Reach platform allows marketers to deploy marketing programs that encourage people to play games, post pictures, and participate in quizzes and polls. RMG will even be able to reward people with instant prizing, coupons, vouchers and gifts. The possibilities for this platform are endless and present an exciting new frontier for customer engagement.
</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:10px">
“RMG is working with best-in-class technology partners in both mobile and social to offer the most innovative and engaging technology options for consumers, advertisers and venue partners,” said Mr. McGuire.
</p>
<p style="padding-bottom:30px">
With today’s announcements on the heels of the recent acquisition of Executive Media Network Worldwide, Reach Media Group continues to gain momentum towards its mission to make digital out-of-home an essential part of any advertising media plan.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><strong>RMG Solidifies Leadership Position In Executive Travel Media Sector</strong></em><br /></br><br />
<em> </em><strong>SAN FRANCISCO – April 11, 2011</strong> — <a href="http://www.rmgnetworks.com/">RMG Networks</a> announced today that it has acquired Executive Media Network Worldwide (EMN), the leader in airport executive lounge media. EMN controls virtually all of the place-based video media assets in United, Continental, Delta, US Airways, Alaska, as well as the US based inventor for KLM, Lufthansa, and Air France executive airline lounges. EMN also has rights to sell video media assets in the terminals of the most traveled airports and executive airports in the United States and Europe, including WiFi advertising, touch screen and experiential campaigns. In addition to airport media, EMNs advertising assets on the Amtrak Acela Express train provide further opportunities for advertisers to target an elusive, affluent, executive audience. EMN is one of the fastest growing and most profitable Digital-Out-Of-Home (DOOH) media companies in the United States.<br />
<br /></br><br />
“Advertisers have demonstrated a desire to intercept affluent, senior executives in captive viewing environments. Fortune 500 software, auto, insurance and consumer goods companies have all recognized the powerful impact of captive viewing in DOOH Media Environments” said Garry McGuire CEO, <a href="http://www.rmgnetworks.com/">RMG Networks</a>. “Combining EMN’s dominant position in airport digital media with RMG’s leadership position in in-flight captive seat-back television, is a powerful integrated media solution for advertisers.”<br />
<br /></br></p>
<p>This captive viewing environment is one of the most in-demand digital-out-of-home media assets in the marketplace.<br />
<br /></br></p>
<p>This announcement solidifies RMG’s existing leadership position in the airline media sector. RMG currently represents nearly 100% of the domestic seat-back television ad inventory.<br />
<br /></br></p>
<p>“Joining forces with RMG Networks delivers a new level of scale and consistency that will tremendously benefit both our advertisers and media partners.” said Ben Little, CEO EMN. “This deal formalizes the long standing partnership between RMG and EMN and will help our partners get the most out of their highly targeted in-lounge, train and in-flight media assets.”<br />
<br /></br></p>
<p>This exciting announcement represents another acquisition by RMG in the rapidly expanding digital-out-of-home media sector. According to Kantar Media, the US DOOH media industry is expected to be the “bright spot” and one of the fastest growing within the media sector through 2014. DOOH media is rapidly becoming a “must buy” media for advertisers seeking a solution for the rapid decline in effectiveness in traditional commercial TV viewing.<br />
<br /></br></p>
<p>Acquisition financing is being provided by Los Angeles-based investment manager, Tennenbaum Capital Partners, LLC.<br />

<p>SAN FRANCISCO&#8211;Reach Media Group (RMG), a leading, digital, place-based media and        entertainment company, today announced that it is extending the scale of        its recently acquired Pharmacy TV Network through a national advertising        sales agreement with Pharmacy Health Network, owned by Cardinal Health.</p>
<p>“Partnering with a category leader like Cardinal Health and its Pharmacy        Health Network enables RMG to deliver the active viewers advertisers are        seeking. We continue to believe in the pharmacy environment and this        important new relationship with Cardinal Health allows RMG to deliver        that same quality advertising impression on a much larger scale,” said        Garry McGuire, CEO of RMG.</p>
<p>With Pharmacy Health Network on board, RMG’s newly re-branded        Point-of-Care Network’s media footprint expands by 650 screens and 4.5        million monthly viewers in pharmacy locations nationwide. Through this        agreement, RMG will lead national advertising sales for Pharmacy Health        Network. Pharmacy Health Network will continue to present the same        premium branded health and wellness content.</p>
<p>“RMG’s deep relationships with advertisers across a variety of        industries make it a great resource to help Pharmacy Health Network        expand its current advertising partnerships,” said Jeff Foreman, vice        president of strategic and branding purchasing for Cardinal Health. “The        Pharmacy Health Network provides advertisers with a compelling way to        engage consumers with multi-media content while they wait for        prescriptions to be filled at the pharmacy, and we look forward to the        role RMG will play in working with our team to deliver those consumers        the special promotions and coupons that will keep them engaged and help        influence buying behaviors.”</p>
<p>Foreman said that the Pharmacy Health Network is already installed in        more than 650 retail pharmacies across the nation. Respario Digital        Advertising Group of Dallas, Texas, continues to manage the operational        aspects of Pharmacy Health Network including rollout, network operations        and support.</p>
<p>RMG’s digital video Point-of-Care Network is flexible, geo-targetable        and IP-addressable. It also enables advertisers to further engage their        audiences via mobile interactivity and online loyalty programs.</p>
<p>This expansion strengthens RMG’s media inventory position in the        healthcare segment and builds on the company’s mission to deliver        valuable, active consumers to advertisers through place-based video        networks. This news follows RMG’s recent announcement of its agreement        with mtvU, which extended the company’s sales and marketing reach to the        youth influencer audience, reaching nearly nine million 18-24-year-old        college students on campuses across the U.S.</p>
