Live Current Media Closes Convertible Note Offering to Restructure Cash
 Distributions to Certain Auctomatic Shareholders

VANCOUVER, BC – August 20, 2009 – Live Current Media Inc. (OTCBB:LIVC), a media company built around content and e-commerce destinations, announced today that on August 17, 2009, it closed a convertible note offering with certain former shareholders of Entity, Inc. (“Auctomatic”), which restructures the amounts owed to such shareholders under the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 25, 2008 (“Merger Agreement”) between Live Current and the shareholders of Auctomatic (the “Auctomatic Shareholders”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and in consideration for 100% of the outstanding shares of Auctomatic, the Auctomatic Shareholders were entitled to receive, among other things, cash consideration (the “Distribution Cash”) in the amount of $800,000 on May 22, 2009.  Live Current reached an agreement with certain of the Auctomatic Shareholders, collectively entitled to receive $424,934.40 of the Distribution Cash, to accept convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") in lieu of the cash payment.  The Notes are in the aggregate principal amount of $424,934.40 and are convertible into shares of common stock of Live Current at any time prior to the maturity of the Notes at a price per share equal to $0.25.  The Notes will be due and payable on May 22, 2010 and carry interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, with such interest beginning to accrue effective May 22, 2009. Interest under the Notes is payable quarterly in arrears. The Notes may be prepaid by Live Current at any time.  The issuance date of the Notes is August 17, 2009.

Although the Notes were offered to all of the Auctomatic Shareholders, certain Auctomatic Shareholders entitled to receive an aggregate of $375,065.60 of the Distribution Cash did not accept the offer and such cash payments remain subject to payment under the Merger Agreement.
