LBi acquires Netrank


PRESS RELEASE
Stockholm/Amsterdam, 1 February 2008





LBI International AB ("LBi"), the leading international full service
digital agency, has acquired Netrank, one of the UK's foremost search
engine optimisation and online brand positioning agencies.

LBi Global Head of Media Caroline McGuckian comments: "Netrank's
service offering and client list is a perfect strategic fit for LBi.
The search engine marketing field is still relatively fragmented and
the formal integration of Netrank and LBi UK at this point will
consolidate our already strong SEO capabilities, as well as
introducing some new specialised skills."

Ewen Sturgeon, CEO LBi UK adds: "Netrank have impressed us with their
ability to grow and evolve their revenues, services and client base
consistently over the many years that we have worked alongside them
for various clients.  While both businesses stand to gain from the
deal, we believe that our clients in particular will benefit
enormously from our combined offering.

Netrank Managing Director Lucy Allen remarks: "We are delighted to be
joining LBi at a stage when Netrank, after a period of prolonged
growth, is ready to move up to the next level. LBi's proven ambition,
blue chip client list and international status as the leading full
service marketing and technology agency make this a great move for
us."

Netrank expects net revenue of approximately EUR 3.6 million for the
full year 2007 and is profitable. The agency has 42 employees.

The total purchase price will be determined on an earn-out
arrangement. LBi expects this acquisition to be EBITDA and earnings
accretive with immediate effect.
