LG ANNOUNCES EXPANDED CONTENT OPTIONS FOR

New GoPro Collaboration Among New Partnerships Bringing Popular 4K Ultra HD and Full HD Content to LG Smart TVs

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5, 2015 ? LG Electronics USA today announced an expansive lineup of new content partners for the company's new webOS 2.0 Smart TV platform at the 2015 International CES®. These new alliances - with leading content and technology providers GoPro, DIRECTV, Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, HSN, SHOWTIME, Drama Fever and iHeartRadio - will offer online access to more streaming content and 4K viewing options than ever before to millions of LG Smart TV owners.*

One of the most noteworthy new content partnerships is the TV collaboration between LG Electronics USA and GoPro, which will bring some of today's most engaging content to LG Smart TVs. With the exclusive new GoPro Channel app, available exclusively to LG webOS Smart TVs, owners can stream GoPro videos on-demand today, including stunning content shot on the HERO4 Black, the most advanced GoPro camera ever. Access to 4K content is anticipated in future updates to the Channel.** The alliance capitalizes on LG's award-winning webOS Smart TV technology available on 2015 and 2014 4K OLED TVs, 4K ULTRA HD LED TVs and FULL HD LCD TVs to deliver the immersive imagery that is a hallmark of the GoPro video experience.

In order to provide an immersive experience paired with professional quality content, GoPro chose LG webOS Smart TVs as the launch partner for its cutting-edge platform. The new app allows LG Smart TV users to immerse themselves in the world of GoPro content with just the click of the Magic remote using LG's simple and fast webOS connected platform. Viewers will experience hours of engaging and inspiring moments, from global expeditions and adrenaline-pumping stunts to everyday moments and jaw-dropping beauty on LG TVs offering improved contrast and picture detail, coupled with superior color and clarity.

"LG screens provide a beautiful display for the immersive 4K and HD content that GoPro is known for," said GoPro Head of Programming and Distribution, Adam Dornbusch. "As entertainment continues to evolve into new formats and new platforms, the GoPro Channel app will bring our best user-generated content and original productions into the homes of millions of LG Smart TV owners and to a new audience of viewers."

With a focus on three overarching features - Simple Connection, Simple Switching and Simple Discovery - webOS makes navigating today's state-of-the-art TV systems easier than ever. LG's newly upgraded webOS 2.0 smart TV platform for 2015 takes simplicity and convenience to a new level with an even more user-friendly interface, while also managing an expanding array of content options, so consumers can chose easily from a long list of new features.

"LG's webOS Smart TVs make finding the content you want fast and simple, so that consumers can spend more time enjoying, and less time searching for, the content they crave," said David VanderWaal, head of marketing for LG Electronics USA. "We're offering access to more streaming content providers than ever before. I can tell you that consumers are going to be blown away by the range of inspiring content available, including thrilling videos on the GoPro Channel app available exclusively for LG Smart TVs - and experiencing them on our 4K OLED TVs is truly mind-blowing."

The GoPro app will join a host of new applications and features providing an extensive selection of Ultra HD and Full HD content on LG 4K Ultra HD, LCD and OLED TVs featuring the webOS platform. Additional partnerships being announced today include:

• Sling TV: In 2015, LG will join forces with the live, over-the-top television service Sling TV.

• DIRECTV: LG's expansive 2015 lineup of Smart TVs featuring webOS 2.0 will offer access to more content than ever before, including new releases as well as your favorite classic films through DIRECTV 4K VOD service - a future update that will be available later in 2015 from LG. New LG Smart TVs will allow subscribers with DIRECTV's Genie HD DVR to access DIRECTV 4K and Full DIRECTV services.
