7 IGNITE AUTOMATED PRODUCTION SYSTEM The Ignite Automated Production System provides a complete link between the control room and the newsroom one that provides an unmatched return on investment with single-operator capabilities. Ignite is an integrated software and hardware production solution that enables directors to broadcast various types of programs. This innovative, single-operator production system provides a central point of management for control room devices such as the switcher, audio console, camera control, clip server, and graphics stations. The Ignite implementation places special emphasis on live broadcast news following a rundown, but is also well suited for less-scripted events such as: election coverage, talk shows, live entertainment segments, and extended breaking news events. With consistent preprogrammed events, Ignite reduces on-air technical errors, thereby improving program quality A cost-effective solution for producing more live content with fewer resources. With the efficiency improvements in the production process, Ignite pays for itself in a relatively short time period Ignite with GV STRATUS, is designed to make multi-distribution content delivery for the web and mobile devices more efficient to help generate alternate revenue streams Proven high quality of programming for natural disaster coverage, election coverage, and breaking news without production compromises Get non-scripted breaking news to air first ahead of the competition by storing complex production events and recalling a list with the press of late breaking news button Transition easily between back-to-back newscasts Easy execution of any breaking news scenario Float, drop, and add stories within seconds Direct link between rundown and on-air programming Tools for live multicast channels and multi-distribution delivery Event-driven technology allowing one person to direct an entire production Scalable architecture: One to ten mix/effect (M/E) banks Single, partial, and fully redundant backup capabilities for CPUs, video, and audio frames Optional video switcher panels for manual operation when desired Switchable SD and HD formats, including 1080i/720p and 525/625 MOS-driven workflows for newsroom computer systems, digital news production, and graphics automation systems Manual control permits override of any command prestored on event timeline Ignite assists broadcasters to produce more live content cost effectively, improve the on-air look and feel, and virtually eliminate technical errors. Low operating resource requirement, so staff can be re-aligned from inside the building to outside where the news really happens Integration of multiple production tasks, usually performed by individual operators at separate workstations, eliminates errors caused by multiple operational processes Integrates with news workflows by seamlessly tapping into existing news workflows without affecting creation of content or editorial decisions Real-time error checking and conflict resolution with the Media Object Portal server for consistent, trouble-free programs Best-in-class control of audio that mimics the way in which an audio operator uses a console and so saves on production costs GV STRATUS integration permits broadcasters to deliver content for multiple platforms: Rights Management Live streaming with content replacement technology Regionalized Content Delivery solution to enable custom stories or ads to be delivered Advanced VOD Processing Use during the live newscast increases the throughput anywhere from 3X to 5X Improved program quality with tighter pacing and a more consistent on-air look Flexibility of control with direct linkage between the rundown and what goes to air, and allowing breakaway from the scripted rundown to execute non-scripted production events Increase in quantity of program production, producing new advertising and revenue streams

10 GV GUARDIAN REMOTE MONITORING APPLICATION Grass Valley is well aware that media production and delivery is becoming increasingly complex. The associated hardware and software continues to become further distributed in fact, Grass Valley has been a pioneer in the technologies that have helped to enable this trend. The limited number of broadcast channels in the past has morphed into innumerable cable and satellite channels, Internet networks, and mobile media consumption. The diversification of content management and delivery is forcing IT and broadcast engineers to support more services and devices over everwidening geographies. Loss of continuity has financial impact while the possible points of failure are increasing in number and physical separation. To minimize risk and maximize uptime, it is essential to have early detection, easy root cause analysis, and rapid resolution. Designed for the greatest flexibility and maximum simplicity in all types of systems Implementation that maximizes ease of installation Simple configuration import tool, profiles, and wizards for speed and flexibility Highly customizable dashboards and views for easy adaptation to specific user needs Built on a platform with 1000s of previous deployments for low risk and high product maturity Configurable alerts for proactive notification of problems in any staffing scenario Easy to configure data center map for simple, flexible visual indication on errors and warnings The most frequent cause of downtime is unanticipated system failure, and the biggest obstacle to rapidly restoring a failed system is the inability to easily identify the root cause. GV GUARDIAN helps users to minimize system downtime by: Increasing system reliability through predicting problems before they become failures Lowering service costs by resolving issues before they become catastrophic Speeding up problem resolution via easy consolidation of error logs and failure data Increasing productivity through system monitoring with minimal human intervention Increasing accuracy and decreasing errors with task automation SNMP, RMON, WMI, and Syslog interfaces to a potentially unlimited number of devices Automatic device discovery and configuration across multiple subnets and WANs User-customizable dashboards User-configurable actions defined by event and device type Reports for resource usage statistics alarms based on values and thresholds Generate alarms/status and automatically restart processes, daemons, and services Report directory structure, file, and folder access (including config and.ini file) changes with alerts based on values and thresholds Alarms based on repeated instance of an event, value, or threshold Drill-down to access event details Import configuration from spreadsheets Incorporate third-party MIBs with no engineering effort Enabling of cloud-based storage for data and logs
