TORONTO, September 6th, 2006 – JumpTV (AIM, TSX: JTV) (www.jumptv.com), the world's leading broadcaster of ethnic television over the Internet, announced it has signed a multi-year agreement with Quepasa, a leading Spanish and English online destination for the Latino community, offering cost efficient, performance-driven opportunities for interactivity and interconnectivity within the rapidly growing U.S. bilingual Hispanic online marketplace. Quepasa.com is amongst the most recognized Hispanic-focused brand names on the Internet.

Stearns, chairman and chief executive officer of Quepasa Corporation. "We intend to market television programming subscriptions aggressively and are eager to offer advertisers access to this high-value content."

"Quepasa has been a pioneer in Hispanic marketing in the United States, having built a highly recognizable brand within its target market.  Quepasa has amongst the highest growth in traffic of any Hispanic portal since 2002 with 277,000 Hispanic unique visitors and 14 million page views per month," said Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, president and chief executive officer of JumpTV International.
