Chalk Media Corp. Announces Mailing of Meeting Materials

  Chalk Media Corp. (TSX VENTURE: CKM) ("Chalk") today announced that it has mailed to its securityholders a notice of meeting, management information circular, letters of transmittal and related documents in connection with a special meeting of securityholders to be held on January 27, 2009 (the "Special Meeting") to consider the previously announced arrangement between Research In Motion Limited ("RIM") and Chalk (the "Arrangement") whereby RIM has agreed to acquire Chalk in an all-cash transaction for a net payment of $23,125,000 ($0.142 per share assuming no shares are issued by Chalk before closing).

The transaction is to be carried out by way of a statutory plan of arrangement and will be subject to certain conditions, including approval of 75% of the votes cast by Chalk's securityholders at the Special Meeting as well as final court approval. The transaction is also subject to certain other conditions as set out in the meeting materials. The transaction is expected to close in late January or early February 2009. Chalk obtained an interim order of the court on December 22, 2008 in connection with the Arrangement.

Chalk's Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the securityholders of Chalk approve the Arrangement and vote in favour of the transaction.

Securityholders of Chalk may obtain a copy of the management information circular, letters of transmittal, and other materials on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Chalk also announced that it will not proceed with its previously announced short form prospectus offering of common shares due to the Arrangement. Consequently Chalk has withdrawn the preliminary short form prospectus dated October 17, 2008 previously filed with securities regulatory authorities in Canada.
