Gaming Nation's Fantasy Feud's Participants to be Acquired by Fantasy Aces

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - August 31, 2016) - Gaming Nation Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Gaming Nation") (TSX VENTURE: FAN), is excited to announce that it has entered a binding letter of intent with Fantasy Aces Daily Fantasy Sports Corp. ("Fantasy Aces") (TSX VENTURE: FAS) (OTC PINK: FASDD) for the acquisition of certain active daily fantasy sports participants in the database of Fantasy Feud Inc. ("FFI"), a subsidiary of Gaming Nation (the "Acquisition").

The Acquisition will provide Fantasy Aces direct access to over 35,000 participants in the FFI database. Most importantly, there are many unique FFI participants who have deposited and played over the last year, and are not duplicated on the Fantasy Aces platform. For those unique user participants, Fantasy Aces will pay Gaming Nation C$125.00 per participant. The Corporation will receive a cash payment of C$25,000, with the remainder of the purchase price being paid in common shares of Fantasy Aces at a price per share based on the 20 day moving average of the shares on the transaction date. The exact purchase price will be determined once Fantasy Aces and Gaming Nation agree on the number of unique user participants being acquired pursuant to the Acquisition.

The completion of the Acquisition is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and all other regulatory bodies having jurisdiction in connection with the Acquisition. The parties anticipate entering into a definitive agreement setting out in more detail the terms of the Acquisition.

On a combined basis and for the six month period ended June 30, 2016, Fantasy Aces and FFI have:

• Gross Revenue of US$1,150,932.
• Prize Payouts of US$12,114,948.
• Game Entries of 1,384,320.

In addition to the extensive FFI user base, Fantasy Aces will become the DFS site recommended and endorsed by the other key daily fantasy properties controlled by Gaming Nation including Fantasy Guru, DFS Guru Elite, Pick Nation and 5050 Central. The totality and impact of these databases for this Acquisition will be measured immediately, and, will grow over time as Fantasy Aces mines the multitude of these Gaming Nation databases which will translate into a greatly accretive transaction.

Scott Secord, President and CEO of Gaming Nation comments: "This agreement benefits both parties and our combined players and we are extremely pleased to have closed this deal. Tom and his team have demonstrated that they not only have the experience but the wherewithal to drive value from each player on their site. With access to our full database, I am confident that not only will their revenues continue to grow exponentially, but they will be able to realize the site's true potential and ultimately generate a significant return for us as shareholders."

Tom Frisina, CEO of Fantasy Aces states: "This deal should prove to be extremely accretive to shareholders. Not only does it provide us with all the positive points listed above, but the timing of the deal could not be better as we move in to the biggest quarter of the year, with NFL starting, followed by NBA and NHL, while MLB and PGA continue. With certain states finally announcing that DFS players are able to freely play, we expect the whole industry to expand dramatically over the next few years. As a result of this transaction we could not be more excited to grab a bigger piece of what is becoming one of the biggest new industries in North America."
