Brower Piven Encourages Investors Who Have Losses in Excess of $100,000 From Investment in NexCen Brands, Inc. to Inquire About the Lead Plaintiff Position in Securities Fraud Class Action Lawsuit Bef

BALTIMORE, MD -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 06/03/08 -- Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of NexCen Brands, Inc. ("NexCen" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NEXC) between May 10, 2007 and May 19, 2008, inclusive (the "Class Period"). No class has yet been certified in this action.

Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff no later than July 28, 2008 and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in all important decisions including whether to accept a settlement and how much of a settlement to accept for the Class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in the Company during the Class Period. If you have a net loss in excess of $100,000 incurred from transactions in NexCen securities during the Class Period and are interested in directing the course of this litigation for plaintiffs, please contact Brower Piven (hoffman@browerpiven.com or 410/332-0030) to answer any questions you may have in that regard.

The complaint charges the Company, and certain of its officers and/or directors, with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, defendants issued a series of materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose: (i) certain details of an accelerated-redemption feature on financing it obtained in connection with its acquisition of Great American Cookies which required the Company to pay half of its borrowing by a certain date; (ii) that the Company was unable to comply with the accelerated-redemption; (iii) that the Company had no reasonable basis for its earnings guidance for fiscal 2008; and, (iv) consequently, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern was in serious doubt.

If you have suffered a net loss for all transactions in NexCen securities during the Class Period (including shares or possibly calls purchased during, but retained after, the Class Period or possibly put options sold but not covered until after the Class Period), you may obtain additional information about this lawsuit and your ability to become a lead plaintiff by contacting Brower Piven at www.browerpiven.com, by email at hoffman@browerpiven.com, by calling 410-332-0030, or at Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, The World Trade Center-Baltimore, 401 East Pratt Street, Suite 2525, Baltimore, Maryland 21202.
