Ms. Fredy Bush, CEO and Chairman of XFMedia, said the funds will be used to finance XFMedia's expansion in its broadcast business, with a focus on sports.  The money will be drawn down only as needed, and will be used to pay for the already identified acquisitions as they are brought in.

"We are very fortunate to be able to secure a facility for up to $80 million from our long-term seed investor Patriarch.  This will allow us to continue pursuing our vision and taking advantage of the opportunities we are seeing in China," said Ms. Bush.

"The broadcast area in China, and particularly sports, is a high margin business with significant growth potential.  We are in a unique position to take advantage of that," Ms. Bush added.  "We are delighted that Patriarch shares our vision and provides its continued support.  The increased investment as well as its higher-than-market conversion price is a vote of confidence in both the fundamentals and future prospects of our Company."

Lynn Tilton, CEO of Patriarch said, "As a major shareholder of XFMedia, we are impressed with the fundamentals of the company and the consistent growth in earnings since last year's initial public offering.  We believe the acquisitions and opportunities that management has identified will foster continued growth.  We are especially excited about the new sports based strategy that we believe creates great synergistic potential for the entire platform and which we hope will be inelastic to the current economic turmoil."

The facility is for a term of four years, and is secured by a pledge of certain television assets of XFMedia.  Amounts outstanding are convertible into XFMedia shares after one year at a conversion price of $2.24 per American Depository Share ("ADS") which represents a 100% premium to the 5-day trailing volume weighted average closing price of $1.12 per ADS as of Monday, 20 October.  The conversion price will be increased to $2.74 per ADS after the second year, and to $3.24 per ADS after the third year that the facility is outstanding.
