Chantilly, VA and Atlanta, GA - September 16, 2008

TV Worldwide (www.TVWorldwide.com), the Internet’s first global TV network (est. 1999), and Internap (NASDAQ: INAP), a global provider of end-to-end Internet business solutions, today announced the launch of a suite of digital media, Web casting and content delivery tools for federal, state and city government organizations. These services include the availability of FedEdTV (www.FedEdTV.com), an Internet TV channel for government agencies unveiled in beta form at TV Worldwide’s official Web cast of the FOSE Government Expo in March 2008. Under the agreement between Internap and TV Worldwide, Internap’s Content Delivery Network (CDN) will be the exclusive network provider for FedEdTV, and Internap will be a charter sponsor of the programming.

TV Worldwide has a 10-year history as the leading provider of Internet TV delivery production solutions and applications, including the creation, promotion and distribution of the first network of community-based Internet TV channels. In 2007, TV Worldwide and Internap worked together to embed Internap’s CDN into many of TV Worldwide’s government-related live Internet TV programs and Web casts. This included the support of 15 federal agencies, state-government related organizations, such as the National Governors Association, and programming for over 1,600 municipalities represented by the National League of Cities. The FedEdTV Internet TV channel is an interactive viewing platform, featuring a rich archive of video content on a full spectrum of public sector issues from housing and e-health initiatives to homeland security and veterans’ business initiatives.

Internap’s CDN solution features a 100% service level agreement (SLA) ensuring quality and uptime. The global network supports all major streaming media formats, including Adobe® Flash®, Microsoft® Windows Media™, Silverlight™ and HTTP/Web downloads. Internap’s CDN also includes MediaConsole®, a workflow management toolset for streaming media that consists of a media manager, pre-built video skins and a real-time reporting dashboard. Lastly, Internap’s CDN offers a suite of optional services, including transcoding, player development, digital asset management and monetization tools to create a tailored solution for every customer environment.
