Convergence India -Latens, (http://www.latens.com) a provider of dynamic security

Of these operators DDC, Faction Digital and Maury Diginet have selected an integrated
Latens CAS and Pace STB solution, while RVR has chosen Latens CAS with an Indieon STB.

Carmi Bogot, Latens President, says: "The addition of these key Regional accounts is
an indication of Latens' continuing success in securing content and revenues of Tier 1 and
2 operators in India. Latens understands that Indian operators are looking for
cost-effective and fast time-to-market CAS solutions that can easily scale and adapt to
accommodate the rapid service growth and innovation needed to stay one step ahead in this
dynamic, expanding market."

Sunil Nataraj, Latens Regional Director Asia, adds: "Latens software CAS is perfect
for Indian cable operators looking for a flexible solution that is quick to deploy. Being
software-based, cable operators reduce their costs as there is no need for a smart card.
Latens provides a cost-effective solution that can be installed quickly, and scaled
effortlessly in line with the requirements of the operator."

Latens developed and launched the world's 1st DVB(R) compliant software-only CAS eight
years ago, since then it has been deployed to operators globally. The card-less technology
offers PayTV operators a more dynamic and secure antipiracy solution, reducing operational
costs that are incurred with traditional card-based or embedded conditional access
solutions. Latens' CAS protects content across all networks - Cable, IP, DTH, DTT - be it
one-way, two-way or hybrid from a single headend, making it a future-proof investment for
operators expanding their PayTV services across multiple distribution infrastructures.
