  UBC Media software division appointed to develop Electronic Programme Guide
                       (EPG) for US Digital Radio Market




Friday 11 April 2008

UBC Media (UBC:L) today announced that its wholly-owned software subsidiary,
Unique Interactive, has been appointed as part of a consortium by the National
Association of Broadcasters in the United States to develop the business
requirements, system architecture and specification of an Electronic Programme
Guide (EPG) suited to the terrestrial digital radio system in the United States,
known as "HD Radio". Project work has already begun in the US, with early
results expected by this summer.

The overall objective is to establish a framework that will help guide the
development of a service bureau to support the radio industry with EPG services.
This is very similar to the action currently being undertaken in the DAB digital
radio market outside the US.

Unique's EPG Management software collates programme schedule information such as
the name of the show and the presenter, as well as additional programme details
and sends it for broadcast and display on radio receivers. This technology
enables broadcasters to manage and update EPG data for their radio services and
means that listeners are able to see detailed programme information about their
station up to a week in advance on EPG enabled radios.


Simon Cole. CEO of UBC Media Group commented:

"We have always seen the leading position we have built in the DAB digital radio
market as a springboard to allow us to develop significant business overseas in
countries where the digital technology is more nascent. This contract is
significant in that it is being awarded by the association that represents the
entire terrestrial radio industry in the USA.

"Unique Interactive already has contracts in the US satellite digital radio
industry and this year, more than 70% of our software revenues will come from
the USA.  Over the last four years, we have successfully used the UK's lead in
digital radio to create an international market for our products".
