Share Placing

£700k raised to fund future growth

Motive Television PLC (AIM: MTV.LN), the digital television technology, software and services provider announces that it has raised £705,000 by way of a share placing ("Placing") through XCAP Securities plc pursuant to which 1,762,500,000 new ordinary shares of 0.01p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") will be issued at 0.04 pence each ("Placing Shares"). The proceeds of the Placing will be used for business and product development and as working capital. In addition to the issue of shares, Placees have been granted warrants ("Warrants") to subscribe for a further 881,250,000 Ordinary Shares at 0.04 pence per Ordinary Share within twelve months of admission of the Placing Shares to trading on AIM.

Background to the Placing

On 2 July 2012 the Company signed a five year contract with CME subsidiary CET 21 spol. s r.o. ("CME") to provide its television anytime anywhere technology platform to support the anticipated launch of a new television service. This deal with one of Europe's leading media and entertainment companies, demonstrates that the Company's new business model, featuring recurring revenues, can find market acceptance and sets the stage for many more such implementations over the coming months and years. However, the extended negotiation process with CME which concluded with the signing of the contract as system integrator at the end of June 2012 has stretched the Company's cash resources. In addition, the significant delay in the market launch of Digiturk's new services has also delayed the receipt of staged payments to the Company.

However, with the Digiturk launch to consumers now imminent next month and with the CME contract now signed and Motive engineers working in Prague, the Directors are confident that the Company's revenues, cash position and gross profit margins will greatly improve in the second half of the financial year.

The Placing is conditional upon admission of the Placing Shares to trading on AIM. Application has been made for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. Admission and trading in the new shares are expected to commence on 21 August 2012. On admission of the 1,762,500,000 Placing Shares, the Company will have 4,907,845,353 Ordinary Shares in issue in total.

The Directors of Motive have undertaken to acquire an aggregate of £25,000 worth of new Ordinary Shares as soon as they are permitted to do so following the end of the Close Period, at the market price at the time.

Michael Pilsworth, Chairman, commented:

"Today's fund raising demonstrates the ongoing support by investors in our business. Our strong newsflow this year is the result of the progress being made in opening new customer groups for our products. More importantly, delays to income flows are coming to an end and as mentioned above, the Company's revenues, cash position and gross profit margins will greatly improve in the second half of the financial year."
