China Mass Media Corp. Enters into Merger Agreement
with China Mass Media Holdings Limited and CMM Holdings Limited

BEIJING – August 7, 2012 – China Mass Media Corp. ("China Mass Media" or the "Company") (PINK: CMMCY), today announced that it has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with China Mass Media Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and beneficially owned by Mr. Shengcheng Wang ("Parent"), CMM Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger").

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, each ordinary share of the Company (including ordinary shares represented by American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), each of which represents 300 ordinary shares) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive $0.0167 (or $5.00 per ADS) in cash without interest (the “Merger Consideration”), except for the ordinary shares and ordinary shares represented by ADSs beneficially owned by Mr. Shengcheng Wang which will be cancelled without receiving any consideration, and ordinary shares owned by shareholders who have validly exercised their rights to dissent from the Merger under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands will be cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the fair value of such ordinary shares as determined pursuant to the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands. The Merger Consideration represents a 100.0% premium over the closing price on May 3, 2012, the last trading day prior to the Company’s announcement on May 4, 2012 that it had received a “going private” proposal, and a 24.1% premium over the 90-day closing price as of February 3, 2012.

Each of the Company, Parent and Merger Sub has made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. The Merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, (i) authorization of the Merger Agreement by the affirmative vote of the shareholders of the Company representing two-thirds or more of the ordinary shares present and voting in person or by proxy as a single class at a general meeting of the shareholders, (ii) the absence of any order, injunction or decree preventing or making illegal the consummation of the Merger, (iii) truth and correctness of each party’s representations and warranties at closing and (iv) the absence of any material adverse effect to the Company.

The Company’s Board of Directors, acting upon the unanimous recommendation of the Special Committee formed by the Board of Directors, approved the Merger Agreement and resolved to recommend that the Company’s shareholders vote to adopt the Merger Agreement. The Special Committee, which is composed solely of independent directors unrelated to any of Parent, Merger Sub or any of the management members of the Company, negotiated the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The Company will call a meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of voting on the authorization of the Merger Agreement as soon as practicable. If completed, the Merger will, under laws of the Cayman Islands, result in Merger Sub merging with and into the Company, with the Company being the surviving corporation and becoming, after the effective time of the Merger, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

Shearman & Sterling LLP is serving as U.S. legal advisor to the Special Committee. Piper Jaffray & Co is serving as financial advisor to the Special Committee. DLA Piper is serving as U.S. legal advisor to Mr. Shengcheng Wang. Dorsey & Whitney LLP is serving as U.S. legal advisor to Piper Jaffray & Co.

In addition, these documents can be obtained, without charge, by contacting the Company at China Mass Media Corp., 6th Floor, Tower B, Corporate Square, 35 Finance Street, Xicheng District, Beijing 100033, People’s Republic of China.

The Company and certain of its directors, executive officers and other members of management and employees may, under SEC rules, be deemed to be "participants" in the solicitation of proxies from the Company’s shareholders with respect to the proposed Merger.
