SNK: NZX MARKET UPDATE
12 June 2015
New director appointed to Snakk Media
International technology specialist Martin Riegel joins Board

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, 12 June 2015 - Today the Board of mobile advertising
technology company Snakk Media Ltd., (NZAX: SNK) has appointed Martin Riegel
as an independent director.

Martin joins fellow directors Michelle Kong, Malcolm Lindeque and Derek
Handley (Chair) as the company's fourth director. He is a Principal at
Broadfield Advisory with a successful and diverse background working in
technology and its commercialisation.

At Broadfield Martin is currently working with a number of NZ companies and
government entities including as CEO/Director of UbiquiOS Technology,
Chairman of Aeronavics, Director of Cemplicity, Chairman of Mixquake,
Director of Broadbell Technologies, Director of Vizzybell, and with FarmIQ,
Serato, Foster Moore and Callaghan Innovation.

Prior to founding Broadfield, Martin served as CEO at Biotelliga (sustainable
biocontrols) and as COO/CFO at NextWindow, the global industry leader in
optical touch screens. Martin helped NextWindow grow to over $46M (USD) in
revenue and to a well structured, highly profitable and efficient enterprise.
 Martin played a lead role in engineering the sale and successful exit of
NextWindow.

During his career Martin has raised approximately $100M US in debt and equity
from venture capital, strategic investors, banks and other sources.

"We look forward to Martin joining the team and we welcome the breadth of
experience he brings," says Chair Derek Handley. "We are evolving quickly,
and the time is right to add new technology-focused skillsets to strengthen
the Board as we continue to take the company to the next level.  Snakk is
moving into a stage and scale over the coming years that is markedly
different from the scale of operation it was when first listed just two years
ago. The board will continue to develop alongside these changing needs of the
company as it grows."

Martin has a BBA from the University of Notre Dame and an MBA from Indiana
University. Born in Washington D.C, Martin moved to New Zealand with his
family in 2006.
