("ZOO" or "the Group")

AGM STATEMENT

At ZOO's Annual General Meeting to be held later today, Roger Jeynes, Chairman, will make the following statement:

"I am pleased to be able to report that trading in the current year continues to be in line with expectations.

"Earlier today we announced the launch of a new production toolset that enables full movie material, including extras such as stills, deleted scenes, exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage to be adapted for sale on the Apple iTunes® platform. We are delighted that a major Hollywood studio has already chosen to adopt this technology for a range of catalogue titles.

"This is further evidence of the Group's ability to adapt its market leading tools for a variety of applications, providing greater reach within existing clients as well as an ever more compelling investment case to potential customers.

"Our strategic relationship with Multi Packaging Solutions, Inc. has highlighted some exciting opportunities and we remain confident that this will enable ZOO to broaden the use of its products to other industries outside of entertainment.

"The last twelve months has proved to be another very successful period for the Company and the quality of our products, the strength of our client relationships, the talents of our staff and new initiatives such as those outlined above, continue to provide the Board of ZOO with confidence in the future."
