"The team that Knightscove has put together is amazing. The future is digital and content has and always will be king. That is what we will be creating here, great content that is accessible across all platforms: TV, Online, Mobile and Events using social media in a very integrated way," says RSKB CEO Raaj Brar.

The purchase of RSKB and the appointment of Raaj Brar as President of the newly formed Knightscove Digital compliments Knightscove's recent announcement to acquire FDR Media Group Inc. and the launch of Bollywood Times and Mehndi TV. Together, with the digital initiatives of our other divisions, Knightscove intends to deliver content to all digital platforms.

"We are extremely pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Brar as President of Knightscove Digital and the acquisition of his company, RSKB Communications, into the Knightscove family. Our intention in building Knightscove has always been to leverage all content across all platforms. With the involvement of someone as uniquely talented in the digital world as Mr. Brar, his knowledge of Canada's largest visible minority will position us to effectively manage our broadcast and digital initiatives," says Leif Bristow, CEO of Knightscove Media Corp. "An additional advantage to having Knightscove Digital is that it will allow us to begin transitioning our proprietary libraries, including the recently acquired Ellis Entertainment library of over 600 titles, to online applications for rental and purchase."

Mr. Brar has extensive knowledge regarding the buying habits, media habits, product preferences and cultural idiosyncrasies of the two million South Asians that call Canada home. Mr. Brar's knowledge of his community can be directly attributed to the comprehensive online surveys he frequently conducts on the website and throughout his social media network of over one million fans.

The aggregate purchase price for fifty-one percent of RSKB was set at $125,000.00. Of this amount, $50,000.00 is to be issued in cash and $75,000.00 is to be satisfied through the issuance of 750,000 units of Knightscove (the "Units") at a price per Unit equal to $0.10 (the "Purchase Price").
