[LOGO - TELEVISA] PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROGRAM LICENSE AGREEMENT BETWEEN TELEVISA AND UNIVISION MAKES CLEAR THAT UNIVISION DOES NOT HOLD INTERNET RIGHTS TO TELEVISA'S PROGRAMMING Mexico City, June 7, 2006--Grupo Televisa, S.A. ("Televisa"; NYSE:TV; BMV:TLEVISA CPO) today stated that a number of press reports over the last several weeks have quoted Univision's President and Chief Operating Officer as saying that there is a "difference of opinion" as to whether Univision holds Internet rights to Televisa's programming. If these press reports accurately reflect any such comment or view of Univision, it would be entirely without basis. Televisa pointed out that the Program License Agreement ("PLA") between Televisa and Univision specifically states: "Licensee [Univision] may not broadcast or otherwise transmit, or permit others to broadcast or otherwise transmit, any Program or any portion thereof over or by means of the internet, or similar systems, now existing or hereafter developed." "The PLA is unequivocal in this regard. There is no room for any `difference of opinion' by Univision or any other party as to this prohibition imposed upon Univision by the PLA," Televisa stated. Televisa further noted that a similar provision of the PLA presently, subject to certain exceptions, bars Televisa from distributing over the Internet in the United States programming otherwise subject to the PLA, but that as to it the prohibition expires on December 19 of this year. Subsequent to that date, Televisa believes that, by the terms of the PLA, it will then have the right to do so. A previous statement ascribed to a Televisa executive in a news report yesterday suggesting that Televisa does not have the right to do so, was in reference only to the present time period before December 19 of this year. Grupo Televisa, S.A., is the largest media company in the Spanish-speaking world and a major participant in the international entertainment business. It has interests in television production and broadcasting, production of pay television networks, international distribution of television programming, direct-to-home satellite services, publishing and publishing distribution, cable television, radio production and broadcasting, professional sports and live entertainment, feature film production and distribution, and the operation of a horizontal internet portal. Grupo Televisa also owns an unconsolidated equity stake in Univision, the leading Spanish-language media company in the United States, and in La Sexta, a free-to-air television venture in Spain. ### TELEVISA INVESTOR RELATIONS CONTACTS: MEDIA RELATIONS CONTACTS: MICHEL BOYANCE / ALEJANDRO EGUILUZ MANUEL COMPEAN Tel: +52 (55) 5261-2445 Tel: +52 (55) 5728-3815 Fax: +52 (55) 5261-2494 Fax: + 52 (55) 5728-3632 ir@televisa.com.mx mcompean@televisa.com.mx - ------------------ ------------------------ LIN WU/JEREMY FIELDING/SCOTT HYNES Kekst and Company Tel: +1 (212) 521-4800 SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
