GLOBAL ENTERTAINMENT HOLDINGS ENTERS DIGITAL CONVERGENCE MARKET

Los Angeles, CA – February 6, 2014 – Global Entertainment Holdings (OTC: “GBHL”) announced today that it has formed a new operating subsidiary, Global Entertainment Media, Inc. (“GEM”), which will participate in the explosive growth of the new ‘Digital Convergence’ marketplace.

GEM is developing a “media & entertainment content convergence” product, tentatively called the “HUB”, or “Home Utility Base”, that will efficiently compete with current entertainment content providers by offering consumers an economical home entertainment medium designed to consolidate a vast array of content libraries, high-speed Internet and HD off-air TV, and online content (whether broadcast or streamed) while shifting seamlessly between a wide variety of home entertainment offerings for television viewing in high definition.  The HUB unit (a set top smartbox) plans to offer free recording of multiple channels from different sources.

“Until now, convergent digital media devices have usually had a proprietary bias in that a customer is forced to use only their brand or products.” stated Gary Rasmussen, CEO of GBHL. “With our HUB product, we expect to change that by letting consumers choose content from limitless sources in all mainstream formats providing the consumer with a virtually unlimited “library” without regard to brand.” Rasmussen continued, “We have already assembled a talented team, experienced in various digital technologies, who bring their expertise to Global Entertainment Media to ensure the successful launch of the HUB.”

The Company anticipates field testing of the HUB prototype to commence during the second quarter of this year, utilizing a wireless MVDDS solution for connectivity and content delivery.
