Subject:		Creative Sound Services Update

Hello everyone-

I wanted to take a moment to briefly update you regarding the status of the upcoming transaction that involves our Creative Sound Services group. Things have taken a bit longer than initially anticipated, however significant progress has been made since my last correspondence.

As I communicated to you in February, Discovery Holding Company (DHC) and Advance/Newhouse Communications have announced a transaction that will result in the creation of a new public company that will own both Discovery Communications and the companies that make up our Creative Sound Services group, including Soundelux, Todd-AO, Sound One, POP Sound, Modern Music, DMG and The Hollywood Edge.

Earlier this month, DHC and Advance/Newhouse took the next step in this process with the signing of a definitive agreement regarding this transaction and, just recently, filed the necessary paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to move the transaction forward. Pending SEC review and DHC shareholder approval, we expect the transaction will be completed in third quarter of this year.

As I mentioned previously, I believe this is a positive development for Creative Sound Services, and my more recent conversations with Mark Hollinger, Discovery’s Chief Operating Officer, and John Honeycutt, Discovery’s Chief Media Technology Officer have only reinforced this belief. Discovery is a dynamic, growing media company with an international footprint in more than 170 countries, a dedication to quality and creativity in all of its businesses, and a genuine commitment to being a great company for employees and customers.

Becoming a part of Discovery will not change our day-to-day business focus. We will continue to provide the highest level of post-production sound services to our feature film, television, commercial and interactive media clients, now as part of the Discovery family.

Over the coming weeks, we will begin communicating more information about becoming part of Discovery. We will be holding a series of meetings to address your questions and there will be opportunities to meet Discovery’s leadership. Coordinated through my office, representatives from Discovery’s transition team may be interfacing with our internal managers in order to answer specific questions pertaining to fulfillment of a smooth transition. We will also be rolling out a formal plan for communicating our new ownership structure externally to our clients, as appropriate.

I appreciate your patience and assistance as we transition to this new ownership structure. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Bob Rosenthal
