RepeatSeat Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:RPS) announced that it has entered into a
forbearance agreement dated April 16, 2009 (the "Forbearance Agreement")
respecting secured convertible debentures dated June 18, 2007 (the "Debentures")
in the principal amount of $7 Million with the holders thereof (the "Lenders")
and has agreed to the appointment of a receiver to conduct a sale of the assets
of one of its operating subsidiaries, Janda Products Canada Limited ("Janda").


The Debentures were issued to fund the acquisition of Janda, a Canadian leader
in the coin-op and arcade business, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of
RepeatSeat. The amount payable to the Lenders pursuant to the Debentures,
inclusive of unpaid interest and fees is $8.7 Million (the "Outstanding Amount
Payable").


Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, RepeatSeat has acknowledged
default of the terms of the Debentures and the Lenders have made demand for the
repayment of the Outstanding Amount Payable. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the
Lenders have agreed, subject to certain conditions, to an orderly repayment of
their Debentures and a conversion of their remaining interest into equity of
RepeatSeat as follows:


1. The assets and business, not including any liabilities of Janda (the "Janda
Assets") will be sold, with the full proceeds being paid to the Lenders. In
order to facilitate this sale, RepeatSeat has agreed to the appointment of an
interim receiver (the "Receiver") pursuant to the terms of the Bankruptcy and
Insolvency Act (Canada) for Janda. The Receiver shall solicit purchasers for the
Janda Assets and consummate a sale accordingly by May 31, 2009. The Lenders have
agreed, subject to certain conditions, to offer the Receiver $4.75 Million for
the Janda Assets. Further details regarding the appointment of the Receiver and
sale of the Janda Assets will be released as such events transpire.


2. RepeatSeat shall make a further payment to the Lenders of $690,000 (the
"Additional Payment") prior to September 30, 2009 through a contemplated
issuance of new equity.


3. Any amount outstanding to the Lenders after the reduction of the Outstanding
Amount Payable from the sale of the Janda Assets and the Additional Payment (the
"Remaining Amount Payable"), shall be converted into shares of RepeatSeat,
subject certain conditions and regulatory approval. The total amount of equity
expected to be paid to the Lenders pursuant to conversion, subject to regulatory
approval, shall be limited to comprising 19.99% of the fully diluted number of
shares of RepeatSeat as at the date of the conversion. It is anticipated that
upon issuance of the equity on conversion, each individual Lender will own less
than 10% of the fully diluted number of shares of RepeatSeat.


The conversion into equity of the Remaining Amount Payable is subject to
RepeatSeat completing an internal restructuring to reduce operating expenses and
a conversion of certain unsecured debt obligations of RepeatSeat and Janda into
equity of RepeatSeat.


RepeatSeat's core online and mobile ticketing business and the business of its
ski hill division will continue operations and are not part of this asset sale
or receivership.


Headquartered in Calgary, with offices in Toronto and Denver, RepeatSeat, Ltd.
offers interactive entertainment solutions through industry leading data,
ticketing and mobile applications to the live event, movie, ski, tour and
excursion industries throughout North America and the Caribbean.


"The goal of the forbearance agreement with our lenders is to help ensure that
we have an appropriate capital structure to support our long term strategic plan
and business objectives, both today and in the future, said Bob Christianson,
President and COO of RepeatSeat, Ltd. This agreement will allow us to reduce our
debt and to focus on our core competencies of providing exemplary on-line and
mobile ticketing platforms across multiple entertainment venues throughout North
America. This initiative is part of a total company restructuring that will
lower operating costs; optimize the return on contracts and position the company
to capitalize on growth opportunities when the market rebounds.


The Janda Subsidiary was purchased to augment the cash flow of the ticketing
division as it transitioned into a cash flow positive environment. The company
has always strived to build repeat transactional revenue coupled with a
relatively low overhead.


For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, 78% of RepeatSeat's revenue was
derived from Janda.


As a result of the expected sale of Janda, the anchor product for RepeatSeat is
its online and mobile movie ticketing and in 2009 this division has enjoyed
significant monthly sales increases compared to the same months last year.
However, this business represented only 17% of RepeatSeat's consolidated revenue
for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.


With the strong slate of movies that will be released in coming months including
XMen Origins: Wolverine. Star Trek, Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins, and
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, sales are expected to continue to
increase throughout the year. Further, in the reorganized company there will be
a strong push to sell the movie-ticketing platform into the United States and
into international markets."


Similarly, Comptrol Systems Inc., the company's ski hill ticketing division has
a slate of long-term contracts that ensure its annual revenue base. This
division provides ticketing services for approximately 25% of the Ski Hills in
North America.


The success of the plan contained in the Forbearance Agreement with the Lenders
is dependent upon a number of factors including growth in RepeatSeat's ticketing
business, conversion to equity of certain unsecured creditors of RepeatSeat and
Janda, the implementation of cost cutting measures at RepeatSeat inclusive of
the requirement to significantly reduce general and administrative costs and the
successful completion of raising sufficient funds to repay the Lenders $690,000
plus the raising of additional funds required for working capital.


The RepeatSeat board consists of Chairman George Watson, Alykhan Mamdani, Max
Fantuz, Clark Johansson, Gary Bentham and Bob Christianson. The board members
are supportive of this reorganization and corporate refocus on the core
activities and strengths.
