Peace Arch^® Entertainment Ramps Up

International Distribution Team

 TOP INDUSTRY EXECS KEVIN BYLES AND VICTOR RODRIGUEZ JOIN PEACE ARCH

Toronto – April 10, 2007 -- Peace Arch^® Entertainment Group Inc. (AMEX:PAE - News) TSX:PAE.TO - News) is very pleased to announce that Kevin Byles has joined the company as President of International Distribution and Victor Rodriguez as Executive Vice President of International Distribution.  Both join the company from Chum International and will be based at the Peace Arch offices in Toronto.

Byles will oversee all of the company’s international sales, marketing and business development activities, reporting directly to Peace Arch Entertainment Group President John Flock. Rodriguez adds strength and depth to the company’s current international distribution team of Executive Vice President Mary Herne and Senior Vice President Suzanne Barron, who will continue to grow the company’s international distribution presence from the Los Angeles office and represent Peace Arch at international markets. Rodriguez and Herne will report to Byles.

“Kevin and Victor provide the kind of leadership, experience and industry relationships that will quickly establish Peace Arch as one of the leading sales and distribution companies in the business”, said Peace Arch Entertainment Group president, John Flock.   “As we begin to exploit the international rights to our newly acquired Castle Hill/Dream library and with our continuing flow of current programs like the record-breaking television series “The Tudors” and award-winning features like the 2007 Sundance Film Festival favorites “Delirious” and “Chapter 27, we expect the addition of Kevin and Victor to our team to both immediately strengthen our existing sales operations and create new opportunities to increase revenues and earnings.”

Byles leaves CHUM International as Vice President and General Manager after six years with the company, where he was responsible for program sales and distribution, channel format franchising and new business development.  Previously, Byles was at Warner Bros. for ten years, leaving as Senior Vice President, International Television Sales for Warner Bros. International Television Distribution in Los Angeles.

Rodriguez joins Peace Arch from CHUM International where he rose to the position of Vice President, Sales and Business Development.  He was responsible for the company’s program sales division, format licensing and station franchising for all of CHUM’s television formats worldwide.  Rodriquez had been with CHUM, and with its Citytv operations, for a total of 24 years.  

Byles said, “I am excited to be joining this dynamic company.  Peace Arch is developing projects that are resonating with audiences on a global basis with award-winning programming that is of the caliber of major studios.  This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to Peace Arch becoming one of the leading distributors of content for the international marketplace.”  

In addition to its extensive slate of new film and television productions that it licenses to distributors throughout the world, in December 2006 Peace Arch acquired the Castle Hill/Dream library of more than 500 film titles, with considerable rights available for immediate licensing to worldwide distributors.  Among the many classic titles in this library are “Glengarry Glen Ross,” The Marx Brothers’ “A Night In Casablanca,” Bruce Bereford's “Breaker Morant,” John Sayle's “Matewan,” and two Academy Award^®-winning films, “Get Out Your Handkerchiefs” and “The Official Story.”
