Issue of Warrants

Further to the announcement on 2 July 2015, Audioboom (AIM: BOOM), the leading spoken-word audio on-demand mobile platform, announces that it has issued 20,000,000 warrants to subscribe for ordinary shares in the Company to Cumulus Media Holdings, Inc. ("Cumulus") as part of the advertising revenue share agreement with Cumulus. The warrants were announced at that time but their terms have now been finalised and the warrants issued.

The warrants have an exercise price of 12.5p. The exercise price may be reset if the Company were to issue ordinary shares at a price lower than 12.5p per share at any time while any warrants remain outstanding, subject to certain excluded issuance events and subject to a minimum reset price of 10p.

50 per cent of the warrants are unconditional with the balance conditional on Audioboom having received certain pre-determined levels of net revenue from the advertising revenue share agreement with Cumulus.

The warrants may be exercised at any time from 30 September 2016 to 30 September 2019 and there is provision for cashless exercise. The warrants are equivalent to approximately 3.8 per cent of the Company's total shares in issue.

At the same time, the Company has issued 1,200,000 warrants to another US radio industry participant, Yea Networks, LLC ("Yea"). Yea, which is the syndicator of The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show in the US, has been instrumental in introducing Audioboom to a number of major US content partners and radio groups and continues to work closely with the Company in this important market.

These warrants are unconditional and have otherwise been issued on identical terms to the Cumulus warrants. They are equivalent to approximately 0.2 per cent of the Company's total shares in issue.
