Swiss Hawk AG Announces the Sale of its Participation in Horsecreek Entertainment AB/HomeTV

ZUG, Switzerland, April 21/PRNewswire/ -- Swiss Hawk AG announces that it has sold its 8.13% participation in

media platform to Motion Network Holding Plc ("MNH") in exchange for a
consideration based on 35 million new issued shares in MNH, thus bringing
Swiss Hawk's participation in MNH from 8% up to 14%.
