Avanti Screenmedia Group plc 
("Avanti" or the "Company") (AIM: ASG.L) 
 
 
Funding update 
 
 
Avanti, the leading digital screen media specialist, announces that it has 
secured further short term funding from Neo Media Group SA ("Neo Media"). 
 
 
As announced previously the Board of Avanti is continuing to seek further short 
term funding to meet the Company's 
 immediate working capital requirement as well as to finance the further growth 
and development of the business. 
 
 
Neo Media Group SA has today committed a further GBP100,000 to the Company 
through subscription for further Convertible Loan Notes which, when converted at 
the 1p per share conversion price, will require the issue of a further 10 
million new ordinary shares (the "Neo Media Subscription"). Following the Neo 
Media Subscription, Neo Media will hold 17,636,363 ordinary shares, representing 
14.1 per cent of the enlarged issued share capital, and convertible loans which 
upon full conversion will require the issue of a further 155,000,000 new 
ordinary shares. Upon full conversion of their convertible loan notes Neo Media 
will own up to a maximum of 61.7 per cent of the Company's enlarged issued share 
capital. 
 
 
In addition the Board is pleased to announce that Dr Moe Bakarat and Novra 
Technologies Inc have converted their respective loans totaling GBP376,820 into 
36,345,600 ordinary shares.  Dr Moe Bakarat now holds 36,000,000 ordinary shares 
being 28.8 per cent of the Company's share capital with Novra holding a further 
10,691,200 being 8.6 per cent of the Company's share capital. The conversion 
will reduce the overall level of borrowings within the Group. In addition the 
interest due on the loans to Dr Moe Bakarat has been converted into a further 
Convertible Loan Note totaling GBP40,285 which will be repaid or converted in 2 
months time. 
 
 
Accordingly application has been made for the 36,345,600 new ordinary shares to 
be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that admission will take place 
on 6 July 2009. The new ordinary shares will rank pari passu with the existing 
shares of the Company. Following this issue the total issued share capital of 
the Company will increase to 125,013,636 ordinary shares of 1 pence each. A 
total of GBP 2.1m Loan Notes remain in issue. 
 
 
The Directors, having consulted with Charles Stanley Securities, believe that 
the terms of the Neo Media Subscription are fair and reasonable so far as 
shareholders are concerned.The Directors reiterate that while the Neo Media 
Subscription meets the Company's immediate working capital requirements the 
Company is continuing to seek further short term funding.
