ProSiebenSat.1 and Unitymedia KabelBW expand cooperation / maxdome to be integrated into core products of cable network operator

Cologne / Unterföhring, February 26, 2015 - ProSiebenSat.1 Group and Unitymedia KabelBW have signed an agreement regarding the integration of maxdome video-on-demand content into the portfolio of the cable network operator. With this agreement, maxdome becomes an integral part of Unitymedia KabelBW's new TV and triple-play (TV, Internet, telephony services) offerings. Beginning in March, Unitymedia Kabel BW's more than seven million customers will be able to directly subscribe to the new bundles and offerings at a fixed monthly price (Subscription Video on-Demand). The SVoD content from maxdome will be integrated into Unitymedia and KabelBW's TV platform, available via its set-top boxes and via its multi-screen service Horizon Go on PCs and on-the-go. Customers of the cable network operator already had access to certain transactional VoD content comprising various TV formats from ProSiebenSat.1 channels. With the agreement, both companies are expanding their successful cooperation and are now working even more closely together on the marketing of entertainment content across all TV and media platforms. Conrad Albert, Member of the Executive Board - Chief Legal, Distribution & Regulatory Affairs officer of ProSiebenSat.1: "This marks the first time in Germany that the subscription content of an online video store has become an integral part of the rate structure of a cable network provider. With this latest agreement, the range of entertainment offered by Unitymedia KabelBW will be greatly expanded and, at the same time, the potential reach of maxdome will be increased significantly. Over seven million customers of Unitymedia KabelBW will be given the opportunity to subscribe to maxdome directly via their cable service." Lutz Schüler, CEO of Unitymedia KabelBW: "With maxdome we are expanding our TV portfolio to include an attractive film and series offer at a flat rate. We are firmly integrating maxdome into our core products, so that customers can enjoy top titles in HD quality with full cost control on our high-speed network - when and wherever they want. TV and VoD thereby converge to create a seamless TV experience on one platform. We believe in this model as more and more people simply wish to customize their own programming." About ProSiebenSat.1
