VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 25, 2022 /CNW/ - Kings Entertainment Group Inc.

("SVH"), the parent company of the market-leading Bet99 brand.

"The near unanimous approval of our shareholders at the Meeting shows our shareholders' continued trust and support for management and our business strategy. The approvals received today mark an important step towards the completion of our previously announced Business Combination. With this approval in place, we intend to proceed with a financing to ensure that Interactive Entertainment Group, the entity resulting from the Business Combination, is well funded and would hope to close the Business Combination shortly after the financing" said Steve Budin, CEO of Kings Entertainment.

In addition to approving the Business Combination, the Shareholders also approved the following resolutions, as more particularly described in the management information circular filed on SEDAR on September 26, 2022:

• reappointing Baker Tilly WM LLP as the Company's auditors for the ensuing year and authorizing the directors of the Company to fix their remuneration;
