Certive Solutions Inc. Announces Equity Acquisition of Knowledge Capital Alliance

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA--(Marketwired - March 14, 2017) - Certive Solutions Inc. (OTCQB:CTVEF)(CSE:CBP)(CSE:CBP.CN) - ("Certive" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that further to its news releases dated September 24, 2014, November 19, 2014, February 26, 2015, July 28, 2015, and August 14, 2015, Certive has completed the acquisition of 100 percent of the equity in Knowledge Capital Alliance ("KCA") effective March 13, 2017. This transaction is a restructuring of the asset acquisition of KCA that was closed effective August 31, 2014. It was determined that the acquisition of the equity of KCA will be complementary to the organizational structure of Certive and the KCA brand.

During the past two years, KCA has steadily enhanced its delivery of process management solutions to state and county governments, particularly specializing in business process management for public health-related matters through the implementation of cloud-based applications. This has significantly improved KCA's product offerings to agencies throughout the United States.

The equity of KCA was purchased in consideration for a total of 1,350,000 common shares of Certive at a deemed value of US$0.30 per share. Certive's guarantee of an outstanding note to a KCA shareholder in the amount of US$256,000 was also cancelled.

Fred Erickson, founder of KCA stated that "having worked closely with the Certive team for over two years, it is clear that our objectives are closely aligned with those of Certive and accordingly our confidence in the Company's direction, its management team and the ability to attract highly credentialed Board members will continue to drive future shareholder value. This is reflected in KCA equity transaction, as we have accepted share consideration that has been priced above the current market price."

Van Potter, CEO of Certive, stated that, "This transaction provides a complete transfer of the consideration for the prior asset purchase of KCA into equity in Certive. This demonstrates a confidence in both the principals of KCA in the future success of Certive as well as the demonstrated value of KCA to the Certive operations."
