ALTA COMMUNICATIONS ANNOUNCES THE COMPLETION

OF AN INVESTMENT IN POP RADIO LP

Alta Communications Invests in POP Radio, LP to provide capital for future growth and expansion

Boston, MA — November 28, 2006 — Alta Communications announced that it has completed its first round investment in POP Radio, LP, one of America’s premier in-store advertising and marketing companies. The funding provides an initial investment of at least $10 million that will allow POP Radio to continue its expansion into additional retail outlets and to expand its sales efforts while building on POP Radio’s track record of profitability and success in the in-store media business. POP Radio sells, produces and manages audio messages for advertisers that run in national chain retail establishments across the United States.

Initially funded through private investments, POP Radio was acquired from News America Marketing in 2003. The successful growth trend, the experience of the management team and the financial stability of POP Radio attracted Alta Communications to this new media business segment.

"POP Radio represents the next wave of non-traditional media that takes place in a captive environment, at the point-of-purchase," said Bob Emmert, General Partner at Alta. "Alta stands ready to support the outstanding owners/managers that POP Radio has in place, to build on their past successes and to look forward to tremendous growth potential with new retail partners, new advertisers and other strategic relationships."

According the POP Radio’s Chairman, Jeffrey Shapiro, "We are very excited about the support that Alta has shown POP Radio. Alta’s investment will provide POP Radio the leverage to expedite the growth plan that has been in place for the last three years and we expect to use this relationship to our advantage to significantly increase our coverage."

Dick Foreman of Richard A. Foreman Associates, Incorporated initiated the above, assisted in the negotiations and served as the exclusive broker in the transaction.
