TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 01/23/13 -- Unique Broadband Systems, Inc. ("UBS") (TSX VENTURE:UBS) today reported its operating and financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, ended November 30, 2012.

Recent operating and financial highlights (in thousands of dollars except per share amounts) include:

--  UBS continues to operate under the court approved Company Creditors
    Arrangement Act ("CCAA"). 
--  UBS recorded a loss from operations of $683 for the three months ended
    November 30, 2012, compared to income of $110 for the three months ended
    November 30, 2011. The variance resulted from, among other things, the
    expiration of the Look MSA on May 19, 2012, and professional fees
    incurred as a result of the CCAA claims process currently underway. 
--  As at November 30, 2012, UBS held cash and cash equivalents of $1,350
    compared to $1,635 as at August 31, 2012. The decrease was due primarily
    to the loss from operations and the settlement of accounts payable. 
--  On January 11, 2013, UBS agreed to sell 12,430 multiple voting shares
    and 14,630 subordinate voting shares of Look to 2092390 Ontario Inc., a
    corporation controlled by Mr. Andrew Kim, subject to the approval of the
    Court. If approved, the transaction would be for approximately half of
    UBS' interest in Look.

UBS, through its equity interest in Look, continues to examine opportunities to maximize shareholder value.
