Interactive Television Entertainment and Kiloo Sign Agreement To Develop Wireless Applications.

Copenhagen, Denmark, April 24th, 2003.

Interactive Television Entertainment (ITE), a leading developer of cross platform entertainment, and Kiloo, a leading mobile gaming company, announced today an agreement to develop and distribute four J2ME entertainment titles based on ITE's world famous Hugo the Troll brand.

The four games are "Hugo in the Snow", "Hugo goes Fishing", "Hugo - Follow the Monkey" and "Hugo - earthquake" known from ITE's popular website www.hugo-net.com. All the games will feature Hugo the Troll as the main character in various scenarios ranging from the snowy mountains to the warm jungle.

The games are targeted to the growing number of handsets in the American, European and APAC region that feature J2ME. The four entertainment titles will support handsets from the manufacturers Nokia, Motorola, Sharp and Siemens who currently have a large number of J2ME enabled handsets available on the market today.

"Mobile Gaming is an important part of ITE's strategy for the Hugo brand. Kiloo has the programming skills to bring Hugo to the Java mobile phone market fast" said Søren Sørensen, President and CEO of ITE ApS.

"Bringing the Hugo brand to the mobile devices will take wireless entertainment to the next level of the mobile games industry. We look forward to be working with ITE on this exciting project." said Jacob Møller, CEO of Kiloo ApS.
