Ortsbo USA Engages Dawson James Securities to Move Forward

TORONTO, CANADA--(Marketwired - May 8, 2013) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Intertainment Media Inc. ("Intertainment" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:INT)(OTCQX:ITMTF)(FRANKFURT:I4T) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary Ortsbo USA Inc. ("Ortsbo") has entered an exclusive engagement with Dawson James Securities, Inc. ("Dawson James") of Boca Raton, FL to support its financing program and go forward with the spin out to a US Senior Exchange, subject to all necessary approvals.

Under the terms of the engagement, Dawson James will have the exclusive right to the financing and planned listing strategies for Ortsbo. Given Ortsbo's current and projected business trajectory, the parties have elected to review the opportunities for initial direct financing to allow Ortsbo to maintain its growth without continued funding from Intertainment. The parties feel that this strategy will yield a higher potential value for Ortsbo as it will provide the means for Ortsbo to continue to deliver on its business and revenue mandate.

Ortsbo continues to execute on its business plan and rollout several major programs and installations in the Customer Care, Gamification and Corporate Communications business sectors. The programs undertaken with these key clients are proving the Ortsbo revenue model as the arena for globalization continues to grow at an accelerated pace. Ortsbo has demonstrated leadership in the real-time communications field to a number of Fortune 500 companies and industry leaders and is working with these and others to create rollout strategies for their particular corporate needs.

As a subsidiary of Intertainment, where Intertainment owns the majority interest in Ortsbo, any significant disposition of assets, including a financing of Ortsbo, is subject to Canadian regulatory approval. It is anticipated that the initial Ortsbo financing will be a Reviewable Transaction under the polices of the TSX Venture Exchange; however, it will not require shareholder approval or an advance information circular as it will not result in the disposition of the majority of the assets of Intertainment.

Intertainment and Ortsbo will continue with its mandate to inform shareholders and invites shareholders and interested parties to attend an informal meeting on May 31, 2013, where management will be making an updated presentation as to the state of the organization and answer pertinent questions. Intertainment will also make available live demonstrations of the Ortsbo and select Intertainment technologies, including Yappn, which deploys the Ortsbo technology.

The meeting will be on Friday, May 31, 2013 beginning at 9:45am and will be held at the Sheraton Parkway Toronto North, Richmond Ballroom, located at 600 Highway 7 East, Richmond Hill, Ontario, L4B 1B2.
