IT`S FANTASTIC! -
IGNITE APPLICATION SERVICES ANNOUNCES BTMEDIACASTER

ignite Application Services` new broadband multimedia broadcasting solution with The Fantastic Corporation

London, 4 August 2000 - ignite Application Services today announced the roll-out of its BTMediacaster service. Developed in association with The Fantastic Corporation, this groundbreaking service enables companies to broadcast broadband content, such as real-time audio, video and high resolution graphics, via satellite to multiple sites at the touch of a button.

Designed to meet the increasing requirement of organisations, BTMediacaster enables companies to transmit rich content and data to their partners, employees, suppliers or retailers spread over wide geographical areas quickly and efficiently. Using satellite technology even the most remote locations, inaccessible via land-based broadband technology, can be reached within seconds.

The BTMediacaster service has been developed through the highly successful integration of Fantastic`s leading multimedia broadcasting application, the Channel Management Center™ (CMC), and BT`s satellite platform. BTMediacaster delivers an information `push service` via a satellite Internet protocol (IP) multicast service, combining the emotion of TV with the interactivity of the Internet.

Sally Davis, President of ignite Application Services said "We are very excited to announce the full launch of this service, the first of its kind to be available in the UK. By working with Fantastic we are now able to offer companies a really innovative and efficient way of sending high bandwidth content to their audiences, however remote."

Reto Braun, Chairman and CEO of Fantastic said: "This formal adoption is the next step in the evolution of the joint venture between Fantastic and BT. This year is proving to be very successful in the UK and with BT`s formal adoption into the core product range, we are looking to achieve even greater growth in the next 6 months."

The BTMediacaster service enables companies to tailor, package and schedule the broadcast of their multimedia data. At BT Tower, Fantastic`s CMC technology is used to transmit users` broadband files via satellite to the designated recipients, identified by their individual IP addresses.

ignite is BT`s new international broadband IP business focused on corporate and wholesale markets in the UK and Continental Europe, and through AT&T and Concert, worldwide. It has the largest broadband network in Europe and plans to invest around £4 billion over the next three years to expand its backbone network and web hosting and application service provider (ASP) capabilities. This investment also supports its strategy to provide city fibre rings, xDSL and wireless local loop broadband access across Europe. ignite also includes BT`s international solutions businesses, Syntegra and Syncordia Solutions. In the year to March 2000, total turnover was £3.2 billion (this is illustrative, business reporting will be implemented March 31, 2001).

ignite businesses include both wholly owned operations and joint venture partnerships: Inmarsat; Eutelsat; Intelsat; Impsat; New Skies; Esat/ Ocean; Mahindra BT; Albacom; BT Telecomunicaciones; AT&T Holdings Canada; Sunrise; Telenordia; BT Belgium; Clear; Commerce One; VerticalNet; I.NET; Al Saudia; Vio ; Bharti-BT; The Fantastic Corporation.


The Fantastic Corporation (Zug, Switzerland) is the leading provider of software solutions for data broadcasting. This is an emerging communications technology which combines point-to-multipoint digital broadcasting with point-to-point Internet connectivity, in order to deliver rich interactive media content to PCs, digital set-top boxes or handheld devices (including 3G mobile phones) over any broadband IP network.

By merging the inherent bandwidth and speed benefits of broadcasting technologies with the interactivity of the Internet, data broadcast provides superior content distribution and interaction in an increasingly IP-centric world. Fantastic`s end-to-end software supports the rapid growth of the "data broadcast" industry.

Fantastic`s customers are typically divided into two categories. The first includes network operators, satellite companies and any other company providing broadband data transmission services.
