ISSUE OF EQUITY - REPLACEMENT 
 
 
The following announcement replaces the RNS made on 3 April 2009 with RNS number

ordinary shares in the Company, as opposed to 4,000,000 as originally stated. 
 
 
The full text of the announcement is set out below: 
 
 
The Directors of Bright Things plc are pleased to announce that the Company has 
raised GBP750,500 (before expenses) through the placing of 60,040,000 new 
ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary 
Shares") at 1.25 pence per share ("Placing Price") (the "Placing"). 
 
 
Details of the Placing 
Pursuant to the powers granted to the Directors at the Extraordinary General 
Meeting of the Company, held on 30 March 2009, the 60,040,000 new Ordinary 
Shares ("Placing Shares") have been conditionally placed by HB Corporate with 
investors and Directors at a price of 1.25p per share to raise GBP750,500 
(before expenses). The Placing Shares will represent approximately 30.68 per 
cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital following completion of the 
Placing. 
 
 
The purpose of the funds raised is to provide additional working capital for the 
Company as it looks to expand the reach and potential market for its SocialGO 
product. Additionally, it will be used to recruit sales and marketing personnel 
as well as improving the back office and server capabilities. 
 
 
The Placing shares will, when issued and fully paid, rank pari passu in all 
respects with the existing issued Ordinary Shares. Application has been made for 
the Placing Shares to be admitted to AIM. The Placing is conditional, inter 
alia, on the admission of the Placing Shares to AIM becoming effective 
("Admission"), which is expected to occur on 8 April 2009, when dealings in the 
Placing Shares are expected to commence. 
 
 
Following Admission the Company will have 195,716,328 Ordinary Shares in issue.
