Exhibit 99.1
Motricity Announces Commencement of Rights Offering
Bellevue, WA July 24, 2012 Motricity, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOTR) today announced that it has commenced its previously announced rights offering (the Rights Offering). Motricity distributed to holders of its common stock at the close of business on July 23, 2012 one transferable subscription right (the Rights) for every one share of common stock owned as of that date. Each subscription right, subject to certain limitations, entitles the holder thereof to subscribe for a unit, at a subscription price of $0.65 per unit, consisting of 0.02599 shares of 12% Redeemable Series J preferred stock and 0.30861 warrants to purchase a share of common stock, as well as an over-subscription privilege. If the rights offering is fully subscribed, Motricity anticipates receiving approximately $28 million in net proceeds. Motricity must use a portion of the proceeds to repay any amounts outstanding under its revolving loan facility from High River Limited Partnership, which could be up to $5 million. No amounts are currently outstanding under the revolving loan facility.
Motricity expects the Rights to begin trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on or about July 25, 2012 under the symbol MOTRR until August 16, 2012, unless the rights offering is extended. Any Rights that are not exercised on or before August 17, 2012, unless the rights offering is extended, will expire and have no further value.
A registration statement relating to these securities has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Prior to the expiration of the rights offering, we plan to announce our financial results for the second quarter of 2012.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
