<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">SHENZHEN, China,&nbsp;April 7, 2015&mdash;500.com Limited (NYSE:
WBAI) (&ldquo;500.com&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), a leading online sports lottery service provider in China, today made
an announcement in furtherance to the announcement the Company made on April 3, 2015. The Company wants to restate that it was
one of the two entities approved by the Ministry of Finance in 2012 to provide online lottery sales services on behalf of the China
Sports Lottery Administration Center. In particular, such approval mandated that the China Sports Lottery Administration Center
use its best effort to develop an online lottery sales management system as part of a pilot program for online lottery sales in
China, and once such a management system is finished, the China Sports Lottery Administration Center should apply again for approval
from the Ministry of Finance for official commencement of online lottery sales in China. The Company notes it has been working
and will continue to work with the China Sports Lottery Administration Center to develop such a management system.&nbsp;To the
best of the Company&rsquo;s knowledge, the approval by the Ministry of Finance for the Company to provide online lottery sales
services on behalf of the China Sports Lottery Administration Center is valid and has not been revoked or amended as of the date
of this announcement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company believes the public announcement jointly released
by eight competent government authorities on April 3, 2015 is a further step by the competent government authorities to sanction
unauthorized online lottery sales and to ensure the healthy development of the lottery market in China. In particular, the Company
believes the close proximity of the release of such public announcement and the promulgation of the Notice on Issues Related to
Self-Inspection and Self-Remedy of Unauthorized Online Lottery Sales on January 15, 2015 signals a potential significant change
of regime in the online lottery market in China. In light of such potential change of regime, the Company decided to voluntarily
and temporarily suspend all of its online lottery sales services.&nbsp;To the best of the Company&rsquo;s knowledge, as of the
date of this announcement, all online lottery sales service providers in China have temporarily suspended their operations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company further notes that as of December 31, 2014, the
Company had cash in the amount of RMB914.2 million, which the Company estimates would be sufficient to sustain the Company&rsquo;s
operations for approximately 10 years without taking into account any revenue, and given the Company&rsquo;s estimated annual operational
overhead of RMB80 million to RMB90 million.</P>
