F1 is considered to be the pinnacle of
motorsport, and is the world's most popular annual sporting series. It has a
global footprint, hosting 21 races in 21 countries across five continents.
During the nine months of racing per year, F1 attracts 1.6 billion television
viewers, 506 million fans and 4.1 million race attendees. The sport boasts the
world's most valuable sporting fanbase and attracts highly prestigious
companies as sponsors, including Pirelli, DHL, Rolex, Emirates and Heineken,
among various others. Its broadcast partners include Sky, Fox Sports, and ESPN.

In 2016, F1 was
acquired by Liberty Media, a multinational company with operations in 30 countries.
Since the acquisition, Liberty Media is growing the sport and improving the fan
experience through partnerships with the world's most innovative companies,
significant investments in new technologies, and widening access to content and
deeper fan engagement.�

As part of the
licencing agreement, Animoca Brands will assist in driving fan engagement by
developing and publishing the blockchain game
F1 Delta Time. The game will have a collectible component based on
non-fungible tokens (NFTs) as well as a racing component utilising those NFTs.
The first phase of the game, featuring NFTs based on Formula 1 intellectual
property, will be launched on 10 May 2019.

Animoca Brands
believes that the licensing agreement can considerably broaden the Company's
consumer reach, and it aims to drive growth and product uptake by leveraging
the significant brand power of Formula 1.�

Yat Siu,
co-founder and chairman of Animoca Brands said: "Securing a partnership to make
blockchain games with Formula 1 - one of the most recognised brands in sport -
is a notable achievement. We will leverage Formula 1's considerable global
reach to drive product uptake and revenue growth as together we seek to
increase consumer exposure to blockchain."
