CHICAGO, November 1, 2005  – tvCompass Inc. announced today that its board of directors has named Edward J. Zylka to serve as the company’s chief executive officer.

Paul Duggan, tvCompass’ non-executive chairman, said that the board unanimously selected Zylka based on his strong track record leading the development and successful launch of innovative technology products.

“The board is extremely pleased to welcome Ed Zylka as our new CEO,” Duggan said. “Ed is ideally qualified to lead tvCompass. He brings to our company not only a wealth of experience in the field of technology and business operations, but a keen understanding of the emerging opportunities in the mobile interactive entertainment sphere.”

Zylka, 46, had served since 2003 as General Manager of Motorola’s Mobile Devices business, where he directed mobile software solutions subsidiaries on a global basis, including 4thpass Inc. and Starfish Inc. Zylka established Motorola’s Enterprise Solutions group and introduced MOTOSYNC™, a mobile application suite for over-the-air synchronization of e-mail, calendar and contacts, in partnership with industry leaders such as Microsoft and RIM. Previously, Zylka was founder of General Instrument’s SURFboard™ cable modem, now Motorola’s Connected Home business group. SURFboard™ is currently the worldwide market share leader in broadband cable modem products.

“Ed came to our attention because of his proven ability to lead high performing teams that develop pioneering, industry-altering consumer technology products. His experience in both the mobile communications and in-home Internet connectivity sectors make him uniquely suited to lead tvCompass,” commented Duggan. “We are deeply impressed by Ed’s understanding of tvCompass’ strengths and his vision for the company’s accelerated growth. We are confident that he will bring precisely the combination of forward thinking and strategic discipline needed to propel tvCompass to its full growth potential.”

Zylka said, “tvCompass stands at the center of today’s interactive entertainment technology industry, and I am delighted to head its leadership team. I look forward to working with the management team to establish tvCompass as a definitive industry force in today’s mobile entertainment market.”

Zylka will assume the position of CEO immediately. His appointment coincides with the relocation of the company’s global headquarters to Chicago, Illinois.
