McMurdo Chosen as First Official Safety Beacon Partner of Original Production’s “Deadliest Catch” Season 11 – Set to Premiere on Discovery Channel April 14, 2015 Emergency Distress Beacons and AIS Man Overboard Devices to Help Reduce Rescue Time in Frigid Waters of Bering Sea Beltsville, MD – April 13, 2015 – McMurdo, the world’s most trusted name in Emergency Readiness and Response, today announced that it will be the official safety beacon partner of the hit reality series “Deadliest Catch”. Created by FremantleMedia North America’s Original Productions, Season 11 of “Deadliest Catch” is set to premiere on Discovery Channel on Tuesday, April 14 at 9:00 PM ET/PT. The first of its kind agreement includes McMurdo’s emergency distress beacons and man overboard devices to help safeguard the show’s crews and crab fishing vessels. The products will be integrated as part of the safety gear used in the award-winning television series which focuses on the real-life events of fishing vessels in the Bering Sea during the Alaskan king crab season. “The safety of our cast and crew is of the utmost importance to me,” said Thom Beers, CEO, FremantleMedia North America and Executive Producer, Deadliest Catch. “Our crew and vessels encounter incredibly harsh and treacherous conditions – 70 knot winds, 40 foot seas and icy decks. The partnership with McMurdo will provide a welcome layer of additional safety and emergency readiness.” The Deadliest Catch crews and vessels will be equipped with the latest search and rescue (SAR) and automatic identification system (AIS) products including: AIS Man Overboard (MOB) Devices – McMurdo’s SmartFind AIS MOB devices, introduced 3 years ago, were the world’s first product of its kind to quickly transmit identification and GPS location information to parent or neighboring vessels utilizing AIS technology. In the dangerous conditions seen in commercial fishing, nearby vessels provide the best chance for localized rescue. Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs) – The McMurdo FastFind PLB is based on COSPAS-SARSAT, the global standardized satellite-based search and rescue system. Designed for use in both maritime and outdoor environments, the PLB is carried at all times by crew members and, when activated, sends a distress signal via satellite to the rescue authorities around the world. Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs) – McMurdo’s SmartFind EBIRB is the commercial maritime industry’s market-leading beacon. A mandated requirement on various vessels, the EPRIB also uses the COSPAS-SARSAT system to notify rescue personnel in the event of an emergency. “We’re honored to be a part of ‘Deadliest Catch’ for the upcoming season and to be entrusted to help ensure the safety of these crews and vessels,” said Randel Maestre, chief marketing officer for McMurdo. “Enabling a faster search and rescue process is paramount when dealing with the frigid cold waters of the Bering Sea, where ‘Deadliest Catch’ vessels are deployed. Our technology, which quickly provides pin-point positioning and location data, optimizes rescue times and has been instrumental in helping to save over 37,000 lives since 1982.” The distress beacons and AIS devices are part of McMurdo’s search and rescue ecosystem which also includes satellite-based SAR infrastructure and mission control/rescue coordination center systems. This ecosystem, the industry’s first single vendor end-to-end SAR solution, coupled with McMurdo’s 150 combined years of proven search and rescue leadership, has established McMurdo as the gold standard in the search and rescue industry especially in the commercial maritime environment. Season 10 of “Deadliest Catch” won a 2014 Emmy Award for Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program. Season 11 is set to premiere on April 14 at 9:00 PM ET/PT on Discovery Channel, preceded by the captains’ pre-show, “The Bait”, at 8:00 PM ET/PT.

But you’ve never seen gold mining like this before ‐‐ here, the precious metal isn’t found in the ground. It’s sitting in the most unlikely of places: the bottom of the frigid, unpredictable Bering Sea. And there are a handful of people willing to risk it all to bring it to the surface. From Thom Beers’ Original Productions, the creators of the Emmy®‐winning DEADLIEST CATCH, comes the new eight‐part series BERING SEA GOLD, premiering on Discovery Channel Friday, January 27 at 10PM ET/PT. For two million years, glaciers have been melting into the Bering Sea and depositing sediments rich with gold into its waters. As Nome’s ice pack melts during the summer, the isolated, raamshackle town of eccentrics and outcasts booms with excitement, as pioneer gold seekers rush to get out onto the water. Miners dive and dredge to scour the bottom of the sea from custom built, barely seaworthy rigs – in a race to haul in as much gold as possible before the waters become too frigid to dive. BERING SEA GOLD follows four gold dredges that range wildlly in size and sophistication, but all have one thing in common: they’re run by driven and often desperate people whose very livelihoods depend on finding gold.

It‟s must seaworthy TV - the masters of the maritime, fishing‟s fearless are back as the Emmy® award-winning DEADLIEST CATCH returns celebrating its 100th episode with the season premiere Tuesday, April 10 at 9pm e/p on Discovery. Captains Andy and Johnathan Hillstrand (F/V Time Bandit), Captain Sig Hansen (F/V Northwestern), Captain Keith Colburn (F/V Wizard), Captain “Wild Bill” Wichrowski (F/V Kodiak) and returning newer skippers Captain Scott Campbell Jr. (F/V Seabrooke) and resident badboy, hot shot Captain Elliott Neese (F/V Ramblin‟ Rose) take to the icy Bering Sea searching for their own version of buried treasure – the highly prized Alaskan king crab. “From the very first day it has been a privilege to share this amazing journey with the fishermen of the Bering Sea”, said Thom Beers, Emmy® Award-winning executive producer and creator of DEADLIEST CATCH. “Everyone at Original Productions is proud to be a part of such a groundbreaking and successful series,” added Beers. This season DEADLIEST CATCH crews have their fishing quota slashed by almost half bringing home a cold economic reality -- how will they make enough money to support their families and literally keep their businesses afloat? With the change in quota, the captains are faced with choices in strategy and tactics – who will go for the more elusive blue crab? Which boat will risk changing pots and gear in order to reap higher profits? And later in the season, fishing opilio or “snow crab,” the fleet faces some of the harshest weather conditions any of them have ever experienced in more than a quarter century of fishing.
