Players Network Announces Second Station Casinos Contract January 6, 1999 - Las Vegas, Nevada - Players Network (OTC BB : PNTV) today announced the signing of a long term contract to provide their digital 24 hour gaming and entertainment network to Boulder Station Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The contract is for a 36 month term and is the second Station Casinos (NYSE : STN) property to sign up for this service from Players Network. Station Casinos is the casino company who dominates the so-called "locals" market of Las Vegas. This contract brings Players Network into a new arena as it is the longest term contract signed by the Company and it also allows the Company to demonstrate the cross promotion capabilities of the system. With 2 Station Casinos properties, Sunset Station and Boulder Station, now network affiliates, the programming will be customized to market the aspects and amenities of the 2 properties to the hotel guests. Commenting on the contract, Players Network President Mark Bradley stated, "The signing of this contract shows the approval of the product by Station Casinos. With the signing of the Sunset Station Hotel and Casino in October, we immediately began discussions with the other Station Casino properties about linking up a corporate system to cross-promote their properties. We will now be able to demonstrate another aspect of the Players Network programming to enhance results at the 2 Station Casino properties. We hope to add the other properties as network affiliates in the future. With the signing of this contract, we now have 7 affiliate hotel/casinos in the Nevada gaming market."
