(NYSE AMEX: NTN) today announced that its board of directors has approved a reduction in the subscription price of the planned rights offering to existing stockholders from $0.31 per share to $0.25 per share.&#160;&#160;Certain factors considered by the board of directors in approving the reduced subscription price included the trading prices of the Company's common stock since the Company announced the planned rights offering and increasing the attractiveness of the investment for existing stockholders who choose to participate.</font></div>

While the Company is still seeking to raise up to $4 million in the rights offering, as a result of the reduced subscription price, the Company may sell up to 16,000,000 shares of its common stock in the rights offering and each subscription right will, based on the shares of common stock outstanding as of the date hereof, entitle the holder to purchase 0.2626 shares of common stock. Other terms of the planned rights offering remain unchanged.</font></div>

The board of directors believes that providing existing stockholders the right to purchase shares through a rights offering is the most efficient, fair and equitable approach to raising this capital at this time.</font></div>

The exact number of shares within the foregoing range will be determined by Matador in its discretion. Mr. Jeffrey A. Berg, one of the Company's directors, is the managing member of the general partner of Matador. As of the date hereof, Matador and Mr. Berg collectively beneficially own approximately 10.5% of the Company's common
stock. As stockholders as of the record date, Matador and Mr. Berg will have the right to purchase shares under their basic subscription privilege, but they will not have the right to exercise their over-subscription privilege. Therefore, depending on the collective level of investment by all existing stockholders in connection with the rights offering, Matador and Mr. Berg may, based on their common stock ownership as of the date hereof, potentially invest up to $2.4 million into the Company in connection with the rights offering (i.e., up to $2.0 million under the investment agreement and approximately $419,000 pursuant to the exercise of their basic subscription privilege).</font></div>

All of these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions made by the Company&#8217;s management that, although it believes to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors outside of the Company&#8217;s control that may cause its business, strategy or actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
These risks and uncertainties may include, among other things: completion of the proposed rights offering, including satisfaction of the conditions to Matador's obligations under the investment agreement, adverse economic conditions, failure of customer and/or player demand, lower market acceptance or appeal of both existing and new products and services by particular demographic groups or audiences as a whole, termination of partnership and contractual relationships, the impact of competitive products and pricing and technical problems or outages and other factors described under &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; in the preliminary prospectus included as part of the registration statement on Form S-3 that the Company filed in connection with the rights offering and in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. Given these risks and uncertainties,
you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events, and changes in expectation or otherwise.</font></div>
