DriveArabia.com has entered into a deal with MSN Arabia to provide automotive content for Microsoft's MSN Arabia's auto channel.

DriveArabia.com, which has become the leading website of its kind in the Middle East in few short years, will edit and share automotive news and stories that will be of interest to readers of MSN Arabia. The MSN Arabia portal, which boasts 5 million users, is maintained by Egypt's LINKDotNET.

'We are growing at a steady pace thanks to our unique content and regular updated features, so any additional exposure that MSN Arabia could provide us among their large user base will be beneficial to us,' said Mashfique Hussain Chowdhury, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of the DriveArabia.com website.

DriveArabia.com, having just completed its third year of operation, continues to experience unprecedented growth, thanks to unique features such as its exclusive new car buyer guide, up-to-the-minute automotive blog, exciting original video clips, critical reviews, and commentary on future car releases.

JumpTV Inc. (AIM, TSX: JTV), the world's leading broadcaster of ethnic television over the Internet, has signed a strategic partnership agreement with LINKdotNET to market all of JumpTV's channels on a subscription basis across each of the company's 10 web portals including the #1 portal in the region MSN Arabia.

MSN Arabia alone has more than 8,000,000 unique visitors per month, of which a significant number reside in North America and Europe.

Owned by telecommunications giant, Orascom Telecom Holding Company (CASE:ORTE), LINKdotNET owns and operates 10 portals including MSN Arabia, Masrawy.com, Mazika.com, ArabFinance, Yallabina.com, CareerMidEast.com, bSolutions.com, El3ab.com, Otlob.com and Yallakora.com.

The agreement will provide LINKdotNET users with access to all of JumpTV's 250+ channels with a focus on JumpTV's 45 Arab-focused channels including Aljazeera, Aljazeera English, MBC 1, Al Arabiya, Dubai TV, Mehwar Channel and 2M.

"The core element of this partnership revolves around the ability of LINKdotNET users to join the JumpTV community with one click. We are confident that this will significantly increase our baseline subscriber numbers and lower our subscriber acquisition costs," said Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, president and chief executive officer of JumpTV International.

"LINKdotNET is dedicated to providing users in the region with the most innovative relevant internet-based services. As Internet television increases in popularity, it is important that our users have access to video content that they will find relevant to their own lives," said Mohamed Sultan, chief products officer of LINKdotNET.

Sultan continued, "JumpTV provides an offering that allows our portals to carry an unparalleled array of television programming and affords our users living away from home with access to more than 250 television channels from 70 countries that would typically only be available within a specific country or region."

Amir Hegazi, JumpTV's general manager for the Middle East and North Africa group commented, "With the addition of LINKdotNET as a partner, JumpTV's television channels will now be available on the top Arab-focused portals around the world- increasing our exposure to a key market for the Company."

JumpTV's streamed content will be presented through the LINKdotNET's portals as part of a broadband content offering which is slated to launch by First Quarter, 2007.
