                              LIMITLESS EARTH PLC                              
                        ("Limitless" or the "Company")                         

          Investment in Advanced Signal & Data Compression Solutions           

Limitless, an AIM quoted investing company, is pleased to announce that it has
made a cash investment of £500,000 in V-Nova International Ltd. ("V-Nova") as
part of a larger funding round in V-Nova.

V-Nova International Ltd.

V-Nova was founded in 2011 and is part of a broad and growing consortium of
over 20 global leaders including Broadcom, Encompass, Intel, Hitachi and Sky
Italia. The consortium features two of the top ten global telecoms companies,
three of the top ten largest media and broadcasting groups and six of the top
twenty global technology groups. The current investment round, upon conversion,
values V-Nova at £300 million.

Based in London, V-Nova is a leading provider of signal and data compression
solutions, bridging the gap between the rapidly increasing consumption of "rich
data" and the comparatively limited availability of network capacity.  V-Nova's
patent-protected, software-based compression solution "PERSEUS" enables
broadcasters and operators to upgrade their existing infrastructure to provide
significant performance improvements and reduce bandwidth costs, as well as
extend and add new services.

PERSEUS is currently used to provide 4K/UHD video over existing fixed-line HD
and 4G/3G mobile infrastructure, HD video over 2G/3G/4G infrastructure and SD
video at sub-audio bitrates.  Application of PERSEUS will enable 4K/UHD
television owners to finally receive 4K content over existing networks, watch
sports, movies and other high-quality HD content on their mobile devices and
provide access for people in emerging markets and rural areas to receive online
video content for the first time.

As a result of its novel architecture, which lends itself to both real-time
compression and encryption using standard encryption methodologies, PERSEUS'
applicability goes far beyond video and is valid to all industries where the
transmission and processing of large volumes of data is paramount.

Since the launch of PERSEUS in April 2015, V-Nova has won multiple prestigious
awards, including the Best-of-Show Awards at both National Association of
Broadcasters ("NAB") in Las Vegas, and the International Broadcasting Congress
("IBC") in Amsterdam.  PERSEUS was even used in the record-setting, historic
first crossing of the English Channel by an all-electric aircraft, the Airbus
"E-Fan".

Guido Contesso, Director of Limitless, commented:  "V-Nova marks our first
investment into the communication technology sector and directly meets our goal
of investing in companies that are driven by global demographic trends.
PERSEUS' potential is game-changing. We believe it could unlock access to rich
data for billions of people for the first time and form the backbone for new
content rich services with diverse applications in industries ranging from
transport, to medical imaging, to the entertainment industry.

We are excited to have been able to participate in this sought after
investment."
