ISSUE OF EQUITY - REPLACEMENT

The following announcement replaces the RNS made on 3 April 2009 with RNS number 0491Q. Dominic Wheatley has subscribed for 4,800,000 of the 60,040,000 new ordinary shares in the Company, as opposed to 4,000,000 as originally stated.

The full text of the announcement is set out below:

The Directors of Bright Things plc are pleased to announce that the Company has raised £750,500 (before expenses) through the placing of 60,040,000 new ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the capital of the Company ('Ordinary Shares') at 1.25 pence per share ('Placing Price') (the 'Placing').

Details of the Placing

Pursuant to the powers granted to the Directors at the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company, held on 30 March 2009, the 60,040,000 new Ordinary Shares ('Placing Shares') have been conditionally placed by HB Corporate with investors and Directors at a price of 1.25p per share to raise £750,500 (before expenses). The Placing Shares will represent approximately 30.68 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital following completion of the Placing.

The purpose of the funds raised is to provide additional working capital for the Company as it looks to expand the reach and potential market for its SocialGO product. Additionally, it will be used to recruit sales and marketing personnel as well as improving the back office and server capabilities.

The Placing shares will, when issued and fully paid, rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares. Application has been made for the Placing Shares to be admitted to AIM. The Placing is conditional, inter alia, on the admission of the Placing Shares to AIM becoming effective ('Admission'), which is expected to occur on 8 April 2009, when dealings in the Placing Shares are expected to commence.

Following Admission the Company will have 195,716,328 Ordinary Shares in issue.
