                       Futuremedia Receives Nasdaq Notice

    BRIGHTON, England, July 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Futuremedia plc (Nasdaq:
FMDA), a leading learning and brand communications provider, today announced the
Company received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that the
Company is not in compliance with Marketplace Rule 4320(e)(2)(E)(ii) (the
"Rule"), which requires a minimum bid price of $1 per American Depositary Share.
In accordance with the Rule, Futuremedia will be provided 180 calendar days, or
until December 24, 2007, to regain compliance.
    To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company's ADSs must
remain at $1 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days. If
this occurs, Nasdaq will provide written notification that Futuremedia has
regained compliance with the Rule.
    If the Company does not regain compliance with the Rule by December 24,
2007, Nasdaq will determine whether the Company meets The Nasdaq Capital Market
initial listing criteria set forth in Marketplace Rule 4320(e), except for the
bid price requirement. If it meets the initial listing criteria, Nasdaq will
notify the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar day
compliance period. If the Company is not eligible for an additional compliance
period, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written notification that its
securities will be delisted. At that time, Futuremedia may appeal Nasdaq's
determination to delist its securities to a Listing Qualifications Panel.
