KeyOn Communications Accelerates Roll-Out of Dish Network and Broadband Offering

OMAHA, Neb. --(Business Wire)-- KeyOn Communications Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:KEYO), a leading provider of wireless broadband, satellite television and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) to rural and underserved markets, announced today it will accelerate the roll-out of its Dish Network offering in select areas across the Company's existing eleven state footprint. KeyOn is a national retailer of Echostar's satellite service, DISH Network, and sells this service in conjunction with the Company's broadband service.

"We have been so pleased with the initial response to our DISH Network offering, we've decided to step-up our plans and make the double-play of affordable broadband and satellite TV services available throughout our expansive market footprint," said Jonathan Snyder, President and CEO of KeyOn Communications. "The positive impact DISH has had on our broadband sales demonstrates that our potential subscriber responds to this kind of valuable and highly competitive bundled product offering."

"Bundled services offer our subscribers a compelling value and provide them with the convenience of getting both products from a single source, which builds loyalty and strengthens our relationship with our subscribers. In addition, KeyOn is able to utilize Dish Network's cooperative advertising program to increase our marketing reach," said Rory Erchul, Vice President of Marketing for Keyon Communications. "We have added DISH Network to our other services that are designed to enhance our subscriber's experience with KeyOn, including our Bullseye Club rewards program and VoIP," continued Erchul.
