JumpTV Signs Channel Partnership Agreement With CVM Television Ltd., a Leading
Jamaican Television Station

TORONTO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- August 18, 2006 -- JumpTV (AIM: JTV) (TSX: JTV) (
www.jumptv.com), the world's leading broadcaster of ethnic television over the
Internet, announced that it has signed an exclusive Internet-broadcast
distribution agreement with CVM Television Ltd. (CVM), one of the top two
stations in Jamaica, providing news, sports and entertainment to the country.

JumpTV's global Internet-television network streams live, high-quality
international television signals via its website from stations in more than 65
countries. Subscribers can access their favorite channels from any
Internet-enabled device including home computers, laptops, Internet-enabled
televisions, mobile phones and video game consoles.

Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, president and chief executive officer of JumpTV
International stated, "This partnership combines the strengths of CVM
Television's leading programming with JumpTV's proven Internet distribution
platform. Together, we now have the ability to reach a large and virtually
untapped market of the more than 2.5 million Jamaicans living abroad. The vast
majority of these diapora Jamaicans reside in the United States, Canada and
Europe, all of which have high broadband penetration, making them ideal
potential subscribers for this new content."

Mr. Isaza Tuzman continued, "Striking exclusive channel partnerships with
companies like CVM is a crucial component to our three-prong business strategy;
focusing on content acquisition, creating a world-class subscriber experience,
and the aggressive marketing of content to current and potential subscribers. To
that end, we've had tremendous success in acquiring over 10 new channels since
June 30th."

"The choice to partner with JumpTV was simple, as they have created the best
possible solution for CVM to expand its viewership around the world. JumpTV
gives us a reliable platform to disseminate our content to Jamaicans, Caribbean
people, and lovers of Jamaican culture everywhere, so that they can enjoy
programming from home," said Dr. David McBean, chief executive officer of CVM
Television Ltd.

Priced at US$9.95 a month, upon commercial launch, JumpTV subscribers will be
able to watch many of Jamaica's most popular programs, including: the daily
morning show "CVM @ Sunrise," nightly news and sports programs "NewsWatch" and
"SportsWatch," and the local entertainment show "On Stage."

CVM was not included in the list of recent channel partner agreements as found
in JumpTV's prospectus for its initial public offering and listing on the
