· New Enhancement Doubles Number of Receivers That Can Be Deployed in MDUs

· New Strategic Partner To Speed Deployment of MFH3 Technology

Paris (France), El Segundo (USA), June 6, 2008 – Recently recognized as the most significant and innovative technology for the multi-family housing market, the MFH3 (Multi-Family Housing version 3) satellite-based distribution platform developed by DIRECTV and Thomson (Euronext 18453; NYSE: TMS), is being rolled out with a new software release that doubles the number of DIRECTV receivers MFH3 will support, providing a more cost-effective installation for large properties and enabling “injection” of local content, such as on-site amenity video feeds into the system.

To speed deployment of the new technology, DIRECTV has established new strategic partnerships with several companies including AFL Telecommunications, the leading end-to-end FTTH (Fiber-to-the-Home) MFH3 system integrator, along with some of its largest customers, YRT²™ (Your Residential Technology Team™, Inc.), and Crystal Clear Technologies.

MFH3 enables the delivery of all DIRECTV programming and services using existing in-building wiring by converting DIRECTV signals into IP video packets to IP-enabled DIRECTV receivers. The system, not to be confused with IPTV, uses the technology as a simple distribution platform to deliver over a single home-run wire satellite TV and other services from a private “on-property” head-end to each customer dwelling. In addition to supporting both DIRECTV standard and HD DVR receivers, the IP distribution platform will also support voice, internet and interactive services over a single connection, enabling the delivery of triple-play bundles.

The new software release allows MFH3 to more than double the receiver capacity and provides support for local content insertion, enabling residents to access and view their building’s custom amenity feeds, and other unique on-site video services.

“Customers in multi-family housing, whether they live in large vertical or garden-style building, not only have a superior alternative to cable, they now have access to virtually all of our services and technology, from HD to international programming,” said Tony Goncalves, vice president, Telco and MDU Sales, DIRECTV, Inc. “The MFH3 platform provides a unique and simple solution for our customers who want the benefit of the full DIRECTV experience, and provides a great business opportunity for our dealers, who can now offer a competitive, cost-effective and cutting-edge solution to multi-family property owners. MFH3 is also ideal for new fiber infrastructure systems integrators and telcos that are building out new fiber plants.”

“This new version represents a sophisticated evolution of our pioneering MFH3 platform and reflects Thomson’s commitment to enabling its operator clients to enhance the breadth and reach of their multimedia and entertainment services offering,” said Georges Laplanche, senior vice president, Thomson Premises Systems within the Thomson’s Systems division. “Meanwhile MFH3 maintains its status as the industry benchmark for the delivery of triple-play services over a satellite infrastructure in the multi-dwelling and master planned community markets.”

DIRECTV’s MFH3 product was recognized at the Broadband Properties Summit in Dallas, winning the ‘Cornerstone Award’ for the most significant and innovated technology that has made a notable impact to the MDU and FTTH community.  The Broadband Properties Summit is one of the industries premier annual events aimed at the MDU and FTTH markets.

PRESS RELEASE 

Thomson Reaffirms Support of Environmental Sustainability

The Group signs EU Codes of Conduct on Digital TV Systems Energy Efficiency
and on Energy Consumption of Broadband Equipment

Paris (France) – May 21, 2008 – Thomson (Euronext 18453; NYSE: TMS) has signed the European Code of Conduct on Energy Efficiency of Digital TV Service Systems and the European Code of Conduct on Energy Consumption of Broadband recently published¹ by the European Commission.

“We are committed to environmental sustainability and to supporting initiatives that will contribute to minimizing environmental impact, including more efficient use of energy and reduced power consumption” said Jacques Dunogué, Senior Executive Vice President, Systems Division of Thomson.

As a leader in set-top boxes, residential gateways and IP connected devices, Thomson has the opportunity to make a positive impact in terms of energy efficiency efforts.

“The impact of the ICT sector on energy consumption and climate change is significant. The European Commission Joint Research Centre has developed together with stakeholders voluntary standards to help reduce this impact” said Paolo Bertoldi, Principal Administrator at the European Commission Joint Research Centre. “We are happy that Thomson has signed the Codes of Conduct for Digital TV Service Systems and Broadband Equipment, thus further engaging itself to cut energy consumption in its products”.

Underscoring its support of sustainable and environmentally friendly approaches to product design, Thomson recently announced the launch of an integrated femtocell gateway – the TG870 – which will enable operators to deliver compelling multimedia services to the home network over any WCDMA² 3G handset. In addition to providing new functionalities to network operators, the TG870 brings a major eco-design breakthrough: this femtocell gateway is equipped with an eco-mode which cuts average power consumption by half, thus significantly reducing the environmental impact of the platform.

Thomson Committed to Energy Efficiency

Energy efficiency is one of the most important policy areas decided by the EU in order to reach its Climate Change Program objective of reducing CO2 emissions. The objective of both the Digital TV Service Systems Code of Conduct and of the Code of Conduct on Energy Consumption of Broadband Equipment is to minimize overall energy consumption (KWh) per appliance, and to secure the commitment by major service providers and manufacturers who support the digital TV and the broadband sectors in designing and delivering digital TV and broadband services and systems that minimize power consumption, including power-down features, integrated power management, and other approaches.

In signing the two Codes of Conduct, Thomson is demonstrating its resolve to minimize the energy consumption levels of the digital receiving and processing equipment it develops, such as its set-top boxes (Thomson delivers a full range of set-top boxes, including advanced HD and PVR models, for service delivery over any type of network be it cable, satellite, terrestrial or IP and hybrid combinations of the same) and that of its broadband delivery platforms such as its DSL and cable modems and gateways and its IP connected devices portfolio including its telephony product range.

Since 2005, Thomson, together with European equipment and software manufacturers, broadcast services operators, as well as national energy agencies, has been involved in collaboration led by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre on designing and enforcing voluntary measures to reduce energy consumption.

Thomson Reaches Milestone of 1.5 Million Digital Cable Set-top Boxes Shipped to Latin America’s Largest Cable Operator, NET Serviços

Paris (France) - May 19, 2008 – Thomson (Euronext 18453; NYSE:TMS) today announced that it has delivered 1.5 million digital cable set-top boxes to Brazilian cable operator NET Serviços. This milestone underscores both Thomson’s position as one of the leading providers of convergent premises solutions to operators worldwide and its key role in supporting NET Serviços’ expansion plans in the Brazilian market.

With more than 2.5 million pay-TV subscribers, 1,6 million broadband customers and 718,000 fixed telephony lines, NET Serviços is the largest cable operator in Latin America and a pioneer in the region in terms of its triple-play offering. With a potential 9 million homes passed, its network extends for over 40 thousand kilometres covering 79 different cities across the country, including the main metropolitan regions of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

In supplying its digital cable set-top box (DCI10NET) in tandem with broadband cable modems (DCM425), Thomson is supporting NET Serviços’ plans to offer multi-service bundles of broadband and broadcast services to its cable TV subscribers.

Hitting the mark of 1.5 million set-top boxes installed over a two-year period illustrates the speed at which NET Serviços is digitizing its network and expanding the scope of its service offering to its subscriber base.

“With our extensive network and existing customer base, NET Serviços is well positioned to drive the adoption of both digital TV and associated bundles of voice and Internet access within Brazil” said NET CEO Jose Antonio Felix. “Our long-term partnership with Thomson will also ensure that we have access to the very best products and related expertise required to offer the richest multimedia experience to our customers.”  

“Unique in our ability to provide end-to-end solutions for the delivery of both modular and integrated triple play over cable, we look forward to helping NET Serviços further expand its broad and exciting range of services across the country.” said Frédéric Kurkjian, Vice President of Thomson’s Video Premises Systems, in the Systems division. “This milestone is strong validation of both the strengths of our current product offering for digital cable TV and cable broadband delivery and our ability to support customers as they move towards bundling voice, TV and Internet”.

According to industry analysts, IMS Research, the number of digital cable TV subscribers in Latin America was set to reach 4.598 million by the end of 2008 and further rise to 6 million by 2009.

Thomson Solidifies Lead with Major Orders, Industry Awards, New Products at NAB 2008

Paris (France) - April 28, 2008 – Thomson (Euronext Paris: 18453; NYSE: TMS) completed the National Association of Broadcasters Convention (NAB 2008) with multiple major orders – including those for its high-definition (HD) news, IPTV, and digital broadcast transmission solutions – as well as key industry awards, and customer enthusiasm for its new products.

“NAB confirmed the industry’s interest to accelerate and complete the transition to HD, with a better cost optimization thanks to automation, as well as its interest in developing new diversified sources of revenue through the Web, mobility and more value-added services” said Jacques Dunogué, Thomson’s Senior Executive Vice President, Head of the Systems division. “Under the general theme: from broadcast to broadercasting, we were proud to present our comprehensive portfolio of solutions, all available for immediate delivery, as well as some technology innovations for the future. And it was rewarding to see the attention we received.”

Thomson Continues To Build Lead In HD News

Proving the strength of its latest product lineup, Thomson received a number of new major orders, including those for its HD news solutions, which have been selected by more broadcasters than any other system. Orders for these systems, and other Thomson Grass Valley™ equipment, included those from:

·

WTTW-TV, the premier PBS member station in Chicago, which has ordered more than $1 million worth of Thomson Grass Valley HD news production equipment;

·

KHQ-TV, the NBC affiliate in Spokane, Wash., which is relying on Thomson to migrate its news operation to file-based HD system;

·

Rede Record, the second largest television network in Brazil, which is building a new and very high-profile playout and exhibition center in Sao Paulo;

·

Australian Broadcasting Corporation, which is relying on Thomson to help it roll out fully integrated HD newsrooms across all its sites. It is one of the largest multi-site broadcast installations ever undertaken in Australia.

·

France 2, which is rolling out a new HD studio and control room in Paris.

Momentum Grows for Mobile TV, IPTV, & Digital Broadcast Transmission Solutions

At NAB 2008, Thomson saw worldwide enthusiasm for its mobile TV solutions with the announcement that 11 of the 14 countries now deploying commercial DVB-H mobile television services rely on Thomson video head ends, service platforms and transmitters.

Momentum also continued to grow for Thomson’s IPTV solutions, as well as broadcast transmission systems. Orders for these Thomson systems included those from:

·

Teo, the largest telecommunications operator in Lithuania, which is leveraging a network of Thomson SmartVision video-on-demand (VOD) servers in its launch of an advanced range of video services for IPTV customers;

·

The Ministry of Culture & Information in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which has placed two large orders for Thomson digital television transmitters, as well as for the creation of a digital archive system for the state broadcaster;

Trinity Broadcast Network & WCTE-TV, two United States broadcasters which have deployed Thomson's digital transmission systems to respectively upgrade networks and prepare for the country’s analog switch-off;

Bengladesh Radio & All India Radio, two new clients for Thomson medium- wave radio transmitters, which respectively ordered 1000 kW radio transmitters to upgrade an existing broadcast network for nationwide coverage and which selected M2W transmitters for broadcast of first local radio to the Lakshadweep Islands.

Thomson’s ViBE MPEG-4 video encoders, launched at the end of 2007 also reached a new milestone at NAB 2008 with 1000 encoders shipped.

New Products and Key Awards

Thomson products won two key industry awards at NAB 2008. Highlighting the importance of the broadercasting concept, the new Thomson Grass Valley MediaFUSE® system – which was announced at NAB 2008 – received a 2008 STAR (Superior Technology Award Recipient) Award from the editors of TV Technology magazine. The MediaFUSE product is the only system capable of simultaneously producing Web, mobile, and IPTV broadcast materials in real time for live and on-demand applications.

Also receiving an award was the Thomson Grass Valley ADVC-HD50 advanced digital video converter. The prestigious award came from the 4Ever Group, an association of members representing wedding and event videography professionals. The award recognizes the ADVC-HD50, which converts files from the HDMI to HDV formats, as a product that offers great promise to the event-videography industry.

Central to the concept of broadercasting is the transition from fixed video and audio file formats to open, file-based storage and production. A pioneer in file-based approaches, Thomson highlighted new versions of its Thomson Grass Valley Infinity™ Series Digital Media Camcorder (DMC), taking advantage of advances in its storage media (REV PRO™), allowing users to choose the workflow that best suits their needs.

Underscoring the importance of this approach, KVBC-TV in Las Vegas, a Sunbelt Communications Company subsidiary, announced an order for 18 Infinity Series DMCs.
