**Live Company Group Plc **(LOn: LVCG) today announced an equity fundraise with
certain existing investors including David Ciclitira, the Company’s Executive Chairman,
of, in aggregate, approximately £2.2 million gross (approximately £2.1 million net).
The Fundraise comprises a conditional placing of 2,084,616 new ordinary shares of
1p each in the capital of the Company to raise approximately £1.36 million (the “
Placing”) and a conditional subscription of 1,299,996 new Ordinary Shares to raise
approximately £0.84 million, both at a price of 65 pence per share (the “Issue Price”).
The Company will also issue participants in the Fundraise 1.25 warrants for every
Placing Share and Subscription Share issued (the “Investor Warrants”). Each Investor
Warrant will provide the holder the right to one new Ordinary Share on its exercise.
The Investor Warrants will be exercisable at a price of 80 pence for a two year 
period from the admission of the Placing Shares. It is expected that the Placing
Shares will be admitted to trading on AIM on 25 February 2019, with the Subscription
Shares expected to be admitted on 31 May 2019. Given the significant interest being
shown in the Group’s BRICKLIVE Zoo programme, with seven BRICKLIVE Zoo shows already
scheduled for 2019, and with the directors of the Company  currently expecting to
add an additional seven BRICKLIVE Zoo shows during the year across Europe and the
United States, the net proceeds from the Fundraise will be used to, inter alia, 
finance the expansion of the BRICKLIVE Zoo programme to meet this demand. **Highlights**·
Approximately £2.2 million gross (approximately £2.1 million net) raised via the
Placing and Subscription at 65 pence per share

 * 1.25 Investor Warrants to be issued for every one new Ordinary Share issued pursuant
   to the Fundraise

 · Net proceeds of the Fundraise will be used to

 * Finance the further expansion of the BRICKLIVE Zoo programme, with seven shows
   already agreed and seven additional shows projected for 2019
 * Provide additional working capital to the Group

 · The Group has also announced earlier today that it has entered into an agreement
with one of Germany’s leading exhibition promoters, AWC AG (“AWC”), for the staging
of BRICKLIVE shows in Germany · Revenues for 2018 are broadly in line with expectations
and a positive start to 2019 has been made, with a strong order book and pipeline
of opportunities across the Group

> **David Ciclitira, Executive Chairman of Live Company Group, said**: “I am very
> excited that the Group is investing in the BRICKLIVE Zoo programme. With the success
> of our Zoo touring assets at Marwell Zoo and Twycross Zoo in the UK, we have seen
> significant levels of interest from other zoos across the UK, Europe and the United
> States. This funding will therefore allow the Group to take advantage of these
> exciting opportunities and I’m personally delighted to be investing in the Company
> at this time.”
