Board Changes

One Media iP Group Plc (AIM: OMIP), the digital media content provider which
exploits intellectual property rights around music, video and copyright
technology, announces proposed changes to the Company’s board.

Subject to normal regulatory due diligence, both Alice Dyson-Jones and Steve
Gunning, will join the board as Executive Director and Finance Director
respectively.

Alice, with over 20 years’ music industry experience, has, for the last four
years, held the role of Managing Director of the Company’s trading
subsidiary, One Media IP Ltd.

In September 2017, Alice was elected as a director of the British Phonographic
Industry (“BPI”). The BPI is the music industry’s trade body that
optimises the trading environment for the UK’s music industry globally.

Steve has been part of One Media’s senior management team since 2016. 
Steve is One Media’s Company Secretary and the Finance Director of One Media
IP Ltd.

Steve is an accountant with over 20 years’ experience in the finance
industry, having managed finance functions for a wide range of companies.  He
is CIMA trained in Management Accounting and is a member of the Association of
Accounting Technicians.

Ivan Dunleavy, who has been instrumental over the period of the Company’s
buy and build strategy, has indicated that he wishes to step down as Executive
Chairman to focus on his other business interests, effective when a suitably
experienced replacement has been identified. The Board has accordingly
initiated a search for a new independent Non-executive Chairman and will make
a further announcement in due course.

Michael Infante, CEO of One Media, commented:  “The Company’s buy and
build strategy is successfully growing the Company and I'd like to take this
opportunity to thank Ivan for his hard work and support during an important
period. The Board wishes Ivan all the best in his many other business
interests and looks forward to welcoming Alice and Steve to the Board in due
course.”

About One Media iP Group Plc

One Media iP is primarily a music rights owner and digital
distributor focused on the acquisition and exploitation surrounding recorded
music, publishing, the writers shares of income and video intellectual
property 'Rights'. The Company has a deep understanding of digital content and
the various industry monetisation models and, as such, offers Rights Owners 
a route in which to divest their music IP holding and for investors to share
in its potential success in corporate growth.

The Company is growing through targeted acquisitions of music content,
expanding into various genres and territories that stand to see increased
returns driven by the global growth of streaming. Its team of in-house
creative technicians then ensure that its existing and newly acquired content
reaches its full potential for monetisation, by digitising it and creating the
highest quality metadata prior to ingesting to over 600 digital retailers such
as iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, YouTube and Google Play globally. In addition the
Groups music is widely used for synchronization in film, TV and digital
gaming. The group also operates over 20 You Tube channels as a certified
partner.

One Media has created and developed the Technical Copyright Analysis Tool
(“TCAT”), a SaaS product monitoring where tracks appear, safeguarding
copyright, and providing invaluable data regarding distribution opportunities
for its creative technicians. This tool is not only employed for Company use
but also licenced and operated in partnership with major music distributors
and major record labels.
