AIRPORT CITY BUSINESS PARK, ISRAEL--(Marketwired - Sep 8, 2015) -  RR Media (NASDAQ: RRM), a leading provider of global digital media services to the broadcast and media industries, has announced that the NFL has renewed its contract for three more years. The contract covers live and non-live delivery into Asia, Europe and, for the first time, an opportunity to deliver games into South America.

RR Media will be delivering the NFL pre-season, regular season and playoffs culminating in the Super Bowl, one of the most watched and eagerly anticipated events on the sporting calendar, as well as a variety of magazine-style and highlights programming. This includes NFL RedZone, which RR Media will be responsible for delivering each week into Europe. RR Media will also manage NFL content and other media assets for later use in video highlights packages.

These games and programs will be managed and delivered through service infrastructure built to support premium sports. RR Media's expanded smart global network will deliver live games and other content in high definition over satellite, fiber and the Internet. Between eight and twelve games per week will be delivered by RR Media during the regular season, with the capability to distribute up to nine games simultaneously and the capacity to extend to additional games simultaneously as required by the NFL.
