HMV GROUP PLC

3 December 2012

Sale of MAMA Group Limited

HMV Group plc today announces the sale of MAMA Group Limited and its subsidiaries and its separately held interest in 50% of Mean Fiddler Group Limited ("MAMA") to Juno Newco Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lloyds Development Capital Limited. The sale of MAMA does not include the sale of G-A-Y Group Limited and Heaven (London) Limited, which will be the subject of a separate transaction, discussions for which are ongoing.

The net cash consideration for the sale of MAMA is £7.3m of which £3.5m will be deferred for 12months. The proceeds of sale will be used to reduce the Company's debt. This sale is a further step in the disposal of the HMV Live Business and follows the disposal earlier this year of the Hammersmith Apollo.
