Mann Chinese 6 in Hollywood Installs Additional Motion Seating to Meet
Demand, Prepares for the Summer Blockbusters

Longueuil, QC, June 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - D-BOX Technologies Inc. (DBO.A
on the TSX Venture Exchange), a leader in innovative motion technology for the
entertainment industry has announced the installation of 15 additional motion
seats at the Mann Chinese 6 Theatre in Hollywood, California.
In an effort to meet the high demand and prepare for the active summer movie
season, the Mann Chinese 6 Theatre, which was the first movie theatre to
unveil D-BOX's Motion technology in April 09, is installing an additional row
of Motion Systems in auditorium six of its theatre, bringing the total number
of seats to 30.
Adding a completely new dimension to movie viewing, D-BOX's motion-enhanced
seats provide a realistic, immersive experience utilizing refined, subtle
movements that work in perfect sync with the onscreen action. Typically taking
more than 300 hours of labor, D-BOX Motion Designers custom code each movie,
frame by frame, designing an unmatched moviegoing event for audiences.
"The Mann Theatre in Hollywood was one of the first test markets for D-BOX's
Motion technology," remarked Claude Mc Master, president and chief executive
officer for D-BOX Technologies. "It is thrilling to see the momentum and learn
of the overwhelming response of movie patrons both in California and other
markets. We are continuing to expand and launch new theatre sites including
the latest two, Canada and Las Vegas, and anticipate similar successes there
as well."
Mr. Peter Dobson CEO of Mann Theatres added: " We are very excited to be
adding a further 15 D-Box seats at the Chinese. The expectation of demand on
our next presentation "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" is likely to
exceed the sell out demand of our previous 2 movies. "
D-BOX is currently in five U.S cinemas - the Mann Chinese 6 in Hollywood,
California; UltraStar Cinemas in Surprise Point, Arizona; Mall of America
Theatres in Bloomington, Minnesota;, Galaxy Highland Theatres in Austin, Texas
and most recently, Galaxy Cannery in Las Vegas, Nevada and the first in
Canada, Cineplex Odeon Queensway, These two latest locations are scheduled to
debut to the public this summer.
