This launch builds on the partnership between the two companies which was established
earlier this year with the launch of Ladbrokes' Vegas Tab. Based on Mobenga's proven track

sportbook is designed to provide Ladbrokes' players with the ultimate sports betting
experience on the go.
The mobile sportsbook provides a brand new interface and navigation menu for optimal

ensure high performance, speed and reliability. Mobenga has worked very closely with
Ladbrokes' mobile team to define and develop the sportsbook including additional product
enhancements which will hit the market in the near future.

Ladbrokes take their mobile sportsbook offering to the next level. The new mobile
sportsbook has a completely new look and feel and features Ladbrokes branding with state
of the art mobile technologies to provide speed and flexibility for the future
developments. I am certain Ladbrokes will benefit tremendously from this offering."
Jim Mullen, Ladbrokes' Digital Managing Director, commented: "Mobile remains a massive
opportunity for our business. Customers have increasingly high expectations of what they
want from the mobile product and the new sportsbook product on the Mobenga platform is a
key part of our response."
