''Business & Beyond'' Show to Feature Sovereign Exploration Associates International, Inc.; Recovering Historical Treasures from Under the Sea DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., Mar 24, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Platinum Television Group is pleased to announce the selection of Sovereign Exploration Associates, Inc. (SVXA) for its innovative, educational television series, Business & Beyond. The company will be featured in a segment on "Artifacts of Historical and Financial Value" in the 2006 Series to be aired nationally on Bloomberg news. Sovereign Exploration Associates International, Inc., (SVXA), based in Newtown, PA, is a business development company that invests in companies conducting shipwreck exploration and recovery initiatives. SVXA has portfolio companies focused on shipwrecks dating from 1500 to 1900 and operates with licenses and finders' rights granted by government authorities. SVXA has identified portfolio companies that clearly differentiate themselves from other players in the business sector in several important areas. It has portfolio companies with exclusive access to what appears to be the largest identified grouping of valuable shipwrecks in the world. Bloomberg's research indicates that the ship inventory of SVXA's portfolio companies consists of many historically important vessels that will generate revenue from intellectual property to include but not be limited to books, movies and tours. SVXA's portfolio companies have already signed a five film documentary agreement with Principle Pictures to begin filming this summer. The series will be called "Shipwrecks that Changed the World. SVXA's operating companies are required to develop cost effective models for conducting site recovery. With its portfolio companies focused on shallow water, inshore projects that produce a high artifact yield to recovery cost ratios, SVXA has been instrumental developing a more diversified, predictable business model for each of its portfolio companies. The firm is dedicated to changing the image and professionalism of maritime artifact exploration, discovery, and recovery. SVXA's operating companies are well structured, relying on a foundation going back more than 25 years to a core team of explorers, divers, historians and marine archaeologists. Their vision has grown over time to include a variety of business roles as well. SVXA's portfolio companies have recovered many coins and artifacts dating back to the 1600s and 1700s. These treasures have been conserved by leading industry scientist and can now reveal some of the story behind the ships they were carried on. Current projects include the recovery of Le Chameau, a French ship lost in 1725 off the rocks of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia that was carrying hundreds of thousands of gold and silver coins, religious pieces, ornate artillery and other artifacts associated with the prominent and wealthy passengers who perished with the vessel. Artifact Recovery & Conservation, Inc. (ARC), a SVXA operating company, is working on the recovery of HMS Fantome, one vessel in a convoy of "plunder ships", which evidence indicates was carrying looted treasures from Washington, DC landmarks after the British invasion in 1812. The HMS Tilbury is another ship likely to have been carrying an estimated half-million silver Spanish pillar dollars before it was lost in a hurricane in 1757. The partnership with Principle Pictures, a documentary film company, will provide SVXA's operating companies with a well respected channel to reveal the historical impact of these lost ships through a series of television documentaries, books, educational tools, and an interactive website. Led by an experienced team, SVXA represents a high value investment opportunity to individuals seeking to participate in the recovery and preservation of historical finds that will produce significant intellectual property opportunities. SVXA is now moving forward to focus on the development of and investment into companies that provide a compelling business opportunity in the area of maritime exploration and artifact recovery.
