                       NEW MOTION, INC. PARENT MPLC, INC.
                     CLOSES ON $10,000,000 PRIVATE PLACEMENT

                 LATEST INVESTMENT BRINGS TOTAL TO $20,000,000;
                          REVERSE STOCK SPLIT IN WORKS


IRVINE,  CA -- MPLC, Inc.  ("MPLC")  (OTCBB:  MPNC),  the publicly traded parent
company of digital  entertainment company New Motion, Inc., announced today that
it has closed a private placement,  raising gross proceeds of $10,000,000.  This
investment  enables the two year old company to continue to grow organically and
participate in the rapidly consolidating mobile entertainment marketplace.

In the placement, MPLC sold approximately 8,334 shares of its Series D Preferred
Stock which are  convertible  into an  aggregate  of  approximately  500,040,000
shares of its Common  Stock.  This  results in an  effective  price per share of
Common Stock of approximately $.02.

MPLC's  board has also  authorized  a 300 for 1 reverse  stock  split to go into
effect  in the next 30 to 60 days.  Following  the  completion  of the 300 for 1
reverse stock-split,  MPLC estimates that it will have approximately  11,680,488
shares of Common  Stock  outstanding.  Calculations  are that shares of Series D
Preferred   Stock  sold  in  the  offering  will   automatically   convert  into
approximately  1,666,800 shares of MPLC Common Stock,  resulting in an effective
price  per  share of  Common  Stock  of  approximately  $6.00 on a post  reverse
stock-split  basis.  Shares of Series A, Series B and Series C  Preferred  Stock
will  automatically  convert into a total of  approximately  9,763,688 shares of
MPLC Common Stock. The currently outstanding shares of MPLC Common Stock will be
reduced from  75,000,000  shares to  approximately  250,000  shares.  For a more
complete  discussion  of the  currently  planed  reverse-split  and the  capital
structure of MPLC,  please refer to MPLC's public filings and  specifically  the
Form 8-K dated February 12, 2007.

"We are excited  about the  completion of the Series D private  placement.  This
completes a series of  transactions  whereby we have  acquired  and financed New
Motion,  Inc.,  a  consumer  digital  entertainment  company  that  is now  well
positioned  to take  advantage of projected  growth in the mobile  entertainment
market," said Burton Katz, chief executive officer of MPLC and New Motion,  Inc.
"The $20 million in gross proceeds we recently  raised in the combined Series A,
B and D offerings, along with the assets recently acquired from Mobliss, provide
us with the capital,  platform and technology  necessary to execute our strategy
and leverage  the growing  trend of  consumers  who use their mobile  devices to
interact with media services on the Internet."
