LOOK COMMUNICATIONS REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2011 RESULTS

TORONTO, Jan. 27 /CNW/ - Look Communications Inc. ("Look" or the "Corporation") (TSX Venture: LOK and LOK.A) today reported its operating and financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, ended November 30, 2010.

Recent operating and financial highlights:

• On December 3, 2010, the Corporation and UBS agreed that, with effect from January 1, 2011, the Corporation will no longer maintain the prepaid annual Management Service Agreement ("MSA") advance of $2.4 million and this amount will commence being drawn down at approximately $145,000 per month over the remaining term of the MSA. UBS will continue to provide services to the Corporation pursuant to the MSA and all other terms and conditions of the MSA will remain in effect until May 19, 2012. The cash flow impact of this amendment is a reduction of approximately $900,000 in fees from Look to UBS over the remaining term of the MSA.
  
  
• Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at November 30, 2010 totalled $26.6 million, which represents a decrease of $0.7 million from August 31, 2010. This decrease is due primarily to the Corporation's losses from ongoing operations.
  
  
• Operating expenses for the quarter ended November 30, 2010 totalled $1.2 million, a decrease of $1.7 million or 58.6 per cent from the $2.9 million incurred during quarter ended November 30, 2009.
  
  
• The net loss for the quarter ended November 30, 2010 was $1.1 million, or a basic loss per share of $0.01.

The Corporation continues to pursue opportunities to realize value from its tax attributes; however after significant management effort, no value was obtained for the $184.3 million of non-capital income tax losses that expired at the end of December 2010. The Corporation's remaining tax attributes of approximately $188.4 million may be utilized by the Corporation in its future operations, or may be utilized by a potential acquirer to offset income, provided certain tests are satisfied including those related to change in control.
