Magic Media Networks, Inc. Retains Knightsbridge Capital
for Investment Banking and Financing Needs
Financing Allows Company to Launch Cybars Digital Television Advertising
System
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 12, 2002-- Magicinc.com,
(OTCBB:
MGCN)
today announced it has retained Miami-based Knightsbridge Capital to assist
the Company with its investment banking and financing needs.
Knightsbridge has agreed to use its affiliated fund, The Advantage Fund I,
to assist the Company to execute the next phases of its business plan. Proceeds
from the initial financing will be used for the regional launch of the Company's
Cybars Digital Television Advertising System - large screen monitors located
in high profile nightlife destinations. Commonly referred to as digital
"place-based" media, Magic Media offers advertisers an alternative complement
to traditional media by delivering entertaining and relevant content and
advertising to like-minded consumers in high-traffic life-style destinations.
Statistics show that Cybars' key demographic, people in the 21-34 age group,
are 126 percent more likely to frequent bars or nightclubs one or more times
a month.
"What's particularly attractive about working with Knightsbridge is their
flexibility," said Gordon Scott Venters, Chief Executive Officer of Magic
Media Networks, Inc. "Unlike other financing opportunities currently available
to us, Knightsbridge works as our investment bankers in addition to assisting
in a financing through their affiliated fund. As a result, they clearly have
the long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders in mind."
Venters also said the Company has recently retooled operations and streamlined
its core business. The regional launch includes the Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale
and South Beach markets.
Magic Media Networks, Inc. is a media production company focused on the rapidly
growing, $21 billion point-of-sale (POS), point-of-purchase (POP), out-of-home
(OOH), display-based advertising industry, offering extensive production
capability and the exclusive services of an established digital advertising
network. The Company's primary business is the production and distribution
of advertiser-supported programming content for bars and nightclubs. For
