Over-the-Top Agenda
• I will explain :
• What OTT is
• That TV is part of a spectrum of video content services : OnDemand, DVD, Cinema,Subscription, “Free”...
• Emphasize that our customers offer “Subscription TV” and that it is a “managed service”
• That “Subscription TV” has a strong business underpinning it
• That the consumer benefits from the robust, easy to use and upgradeable “managed services”
• And conclude :
• That far from a being a threat – OTT allows our customers (the Subscription TV providers) tooffer even more services such as Video-on-Demand, Catch-up TV, Interactive applications...
• That the continuous (relentless) evolution of these services drives demand for ever morecapable STBs
• And that the STB remains the efficient, dedicated, managed device to ensure the delivery ofthose services !

BasicsWhat is a Set-top-box?
“STB: Technically standardised, commoditized, retailed”
“STB: Service provider managed, bespoke, edge of proprietary network”
98%*
* 98% of Pace’s 2009 revenue was for service provider managed STBs

DefinitionsWhat is OTT?
• OTT (Over-the-top) (syn. Internet TV)
• The delivery of a service – often video – using the open internet
• It can be delivered straight from the provider – who could be the creator – to the viewer
• Without the need for intervening carriage negotiations, or infrastructure investments
• (It is independent of the viewer’s internet service provider)
• However, it is “unmanaged” and “quality of delivery” can not be guaranteed
IS NOT THE SAME AS
• IPTV (Internet Protocol TV)
• A “managed” TV service delivered using “internet protocols*”
•
Closed, proprietary network, accessed via a specific internet service provider • Services are optimised and customised to suit the network and end-device capability
• Providing control over “quality of delivery” and “end device serviceability”
* “internet protocols” – a basic suite of standardised techniques for moving data packets across a network; used on and off the internet

Subscription TVPutting OTT into perspective
Source: 8 DirecTV SEC filing
• Satellite broadcaster - No IP infrastructure• Uses OTT to complement and enhance broadcast offering• Delivered to the TV via the STB
DirecTV8 : ~6000 titles
• Primarily impacts the 22.7 B USD DVD rental and sales market• Wallmart acquires VUDU (STB and OTT delivery platform)Netflix : 17000 titles
Apple : 200 TV shows, 400 movies
On-demand content:
“The television industry fundamentally has a subsidized business model that gives everyone a set-top box, and that pretty much undermines
innovation in the sector. Ask TiVo, ask Roku, ask Google in a few months. The only way this is going to change is if you start from scratch, tear up the
box, redesign and get it to the consumer in a way that they want to buy it. But righ t now, there’s no way to do that. The TV is going to lose until there’s a
viable go-to-market strategy. That’s the fundamental problem with the industry. It’s not a problem with the technology, it’s a problem with the go-to-market
strategy. I’m sure smarter people than us will figure this out, but that’s why we say Apple TV is a hobby.”

Over-the-TopSummary so far…
Successfully being used by Subscription PayTV to complement and enhance
their broadcast offerings with “on-demand”
“Free” OTT TV is highly unlikely to replace subscription PayTV (businessmodel dependence on distribution fees)
Most likely to impact traditional video rental
Initiatives to meet consumers’ multi-device demands are underway (any time,
any place)
