Decisive Dividend Corporation Announces Completion of Acquisition of PGR Ventures Inc

KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 27, 2015 / Decisive Dividend Corporation (TSX-V:DE.P) (the "Corporation"), a capital pool company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of all of the issued and outstanding shares of PGR Ventures Inc. ("PGR") from Patrick C. Turner, Leslie Gray Cameron and Ronald Sutcliffe (the "Vendors"). The aggregate purchase price paid by the Corporation to the Vendors for the shares of PGR was $6,600,000, of which $5,940,000 was paid in cash and the remaining $660,000 was paid through the issuance of common shares of the Corporation ("Common Shares") at a deemed price of $2.00 per Common Share. The purchase price paid for the shares of PGR may be adjusted following closing based on certain factors, including the amount of net working capital of PGR on closing and capital expenditures incurred by the PGR and its subsidiaries prior to Closing. The Acquisition is intended to serve as the Qualifying Transaction of the Corporation pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

In connection with the completion of the Acquisition, the 1,004,250 subscription receipts of the Corporation (the "Subscription Receipts") that were issued at a price of $2.00 per Subscription Receipt by way of a brokered private placement on February 25, 2015 were each exchanged, for no additional consideration, for one Common Share pursuant to the subscription receipt agreement entered into on February 25, 2015 among the Corporation, Industrial Alliance Securities Inc. and Computershare Trust Company of Canada ("Computershare"). In addition, the $2,008,500 in gross proceeds raised pursuant to this offering were released from escrow, less the fees of Computershare.

The completion of the Acquisition as the Qualifying Transaction of the Corporation has received conditional approval of the Exchange and is subject to its final approval, which the Corporation expects to receive after completion of the required filings.

The Common Shares are expected to commence trading under the symbol "DE" after the Exchange issues its final bulletin. After giving effect to the Acquisition and the exchange of the Subscription Receipts, there will be 3,424,250 Common Shares issued and outstanding (calculated on a non-diluted basis).
