    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                                                                              19 August 2008   

    TSE Group Plc
    ("TSE" or the "Company")
    Placing

    The Board of TSE is pleased to announce that through its broker, Dowgate Capital Stockbrokers Limited ("Dowgate"), it  has conditionally
placed 190,000,000 new ordinary shares of 0.1p each ("Ordinary Shares") at a placing price of 0.17p per Ordinary Share (the "Placing") to
raise �323,000 (before expenses) subject to admission. The Company intends to use the Placing proceeds to provide additional working capital
and in particular, to fund TSE's next planned phase of international expansion. With its headquarters in Lausanne, TSE's operations cover
the main regions where major sporting events will be held over the coming six years and intends to extend this into new territories. 

    In addition, the Company will issue a further 10,000,000 new Ordinary Shares to Dowgate pursuant to Dowgate's commission arrangements in
respect of the Placing. The new 200,000,000 Ordinary Shares, arising out of the Placing and the Dowgate commission arrangements, will, on
issue, rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in issue and application will be made for the new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to
trading on AIM, following which TSE will have a total issued share capital of 783,900,000 Ordinary Shares admitted to trading on AIM.
Trading in the new Ordinary Shares on AIM is expected to commence on or around 29 September 2008. The Placing is conditional, inter alia, on
the passing at a general meeting (the "GM") of the Company of the necessary enabling resolutions to authorise the Company to issue shares
for cash. The Company expects to issue the notice of GM shortly.

    Adam Reynolds, Chairman, said:

    "We are excited about the prospects to continue the international development of TSE and expand our overseas network. The Placing
proceeds will enable TSE to accelerate this process."
