Dallas Morning News Becomes First Newspaper to Distribute Co-Branded Interactive Entertainment Magazine on CD-ROM; Sunday Distribution to Exceed 625,000.

DALLAS -- The Dallas Morning News, iMedia and Universal Press Syndicate to Offer Hollywood Previews iMagazine

iMedia International, Inc. (OTCBB: IMNL) and Universal Press Syndicate have entered into an agreement with The Dallas Morning News to distribute Hollywood Previews Entertainment iMagazine, the world's first branded interactive video magazine, as a monthly CD-ROM insert in the newspaper's Sunday edition. In an industry first, the insert will be launched on Sunday, April 30, and will appear in more than 625,000 copies of The Dallas Morning News that are distributed to subscribers and through newsstands in the greater Dallas/Fort Worth area.

"The Dallas Morning News has been expanding our lifestyle-themed products and services to increase the paper's appeal in today's consumer-driven society, especially among younger audiences," said Bernie Heller, vice president of advertising for The Dallas Morning News. "Including this innovative digital media magazine in our newspaper creates an engaging and entertaining experience for our readers, as well as additional marketing opportunities for advertisers."

"The entertainment-savvy readers of The Dallas Morning News make this a natural partnership," said Henry Williamson, president of Newspaper Syndication for iMedia US. "Everyone from the publisher to the vice president of advertising has embraced this project. Everyone is putting full efforts and resources behind the program to ensure its success."

Each issue of the iMagazine contains movie trailers, sweepstakes and behind-the-scene video interviews with the biggest stars in Hollywood. In addition to the engaging movie content, Hollywood Previews also features segments on the latest hit television shows, delivers new music videos and premiers the latest video games. This fully interactive, multi-media experience is totally unique, enabling the consumer to instantly purchase tickets, CDs or DVDs for any of the profiled movies, shows, games and events directly through the Internet.

"The CD-ROM format of Hollywood Previews gives advertisers an opportunity to leverage the The Dallas Morning News' audience reach and distribution power. Advertisers will be able to deliver multi-media commercials and direct access to Web-based transactions and responses, special offers, product information and much more," said Heller.

Another plus for advertisers is iMedia's iReporting feature. The proprietary technology allows for permission-based, real-time online tracking and measurement of consumer usage along with the gathering of key response data. "Based on past newspaper distributions in various test markets conducted by iMedia, we know that this product generates a very high average number of people who take the CD from the newspaper and view it in their computer," said Williamson.

"This level of use offers very appealing visibility for advertisers who want to integrate their messages across multiple media platforms," added Heller.

The convergent media provides greater continuity to advertisers looking to promote their products and services. "Our products converge the delivery power of video, the transactional power of the Internet with the tremendous audience and distribution power of newspapers," added Williamson. "Sight, sound and motion have arrived in your newspaper, and is premiering in The Dallas Morning News."

A key component to this program is the fact that each disc provides instant access to the Internet. "Newspapers can now play a role that Google and Yahoo have played in the past. For example, with Hollywood Previews The Dallas Morning News can direct readers to DallasNews.com and to the Web sites of their advertisers to view special offers and promotions," said Bob Duffy, president of Universal Press Syndicate, which represents iMedia through syndication. "This key component offers a compelling and immediate revenue generating opportunity for newspapers and advertisers."
