(CSE: PWR) (OTC Pink: CPIVF) (the "Company" or "Captiva") is pleased to announce that it has signed a binding letter of intent (the "Letter of Intent") dated effective July 18, 2023, with respect to the proposed acquisition of a professional sports franchise.

Summary of the Transaction

The Transaction, which is an arm's length transaction, is expected to close in the coming several weeks and the details of the team and vendor will be released. As consideration(the "Consideration") for the 100% of equity interest of, as well as assignments of the vendors' shareholder loans, Captiva will: (i) issue 60,000,000 common shares of Captiva (the "Consideration Shares"); and (ii) pay US$1,500,000 cash, all on the closing of the Transaction (the "Closing"). The Consideration Shares will be issued at a deemed price to be determined at Closing, subject to compliance with the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE").

The problem has long been the general public has always had difficulty investing into fast growing new sport franchises, yet the success of a public company owning a sports franchise is well documented all having enterprise value build-ups through the democratization of investing into a sports franchise public company. This adds several years of additional growth for the Captiva Wellness shareholders."
