JumpTV Enters Into Exclusive Partnership With BEC3, Thailand's #1 Channel


JumpTV to Broadcast Leading News, Sports and Entertainment Programming From
Thailand


TORONTO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- November 10, 2006 -- JumpTV Inc. (TSX: JTV) (AIM:
JTV) (www.jumptv.com), announced that it has entered into a multi-year agreement
with BEC World Public Company Limited to distribute BEC3, Thailand's #1
television channel. BEC3's star-studded and highly rated dramas, news, sports
and entertainment programming will be available on a subscription basis through
the JumpTV platform, extending the reach of BEC3 programming to the hundreds of
thousands of Thai people living in North America.


The contract signing ceremony took place this week at BEC3's Headquarters in
Bangkok and a local press conference was held yesterday, November 9, 2006.


BEC3 and JumpTV plan to conduct a tour in early 2007 with some of the channel's
top creative talent to North American cities with large Thai populations in
order to generate awareness about BEC3's availability on the JumpTV platform.


Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, president and chief executive officer of JumpTV
International said, "JumpTV's partnership with BEC is another milestone on the
path we have set out for ourselves: to provide the highest quality programming
to diaspora communities around the world. BEC3 is not currently available
through cable or DTH providers in North America. With this agreement, Thai
emigrants and second generation immigrants in cities like Los Angeles, Houston
and Philadelphia will now have online access to the best in Thai entertainment."


"JumpTV is driving innovation in a sector that will change the way we view
television; by partnering with JumpTV and making our content available online,
we are taking a significant step forward as a participant in the evolution of
television," commented Mr. Nopphadol Khemayotin, vice president of business
development and investment for BEC World Public Company Limited.


Kevin Foong, general manager of JumpTV's Asia Pacific group stated, "This
relationship mutually benefits both BEC and JumpTV as it furthers our goal to
expand offerings to our Asian subscribers, and it extends BEC3's viewership
reach."


BEC3 will be sold on a stand-alone basis when launched commercially and will
likely become part of a future bundle of Thai channels on the JumpTV platform.
The BEC World Public Company Limited contract was signed subsequent to the
Company's September 30, 2006 quarter end disclosure. JumpTV now has 234 channels
under license.
