In addition to closing this partnership with us, DataFuzion has decided to file to become a fully-reporting public company, which in the rapidly improving medical information technology markets could greatly enhance the value of our equity stake.

Our discussions with CareDecision originated with our examination of their e-health systems, followed by our bid to acquire their technologies. Subsequent conversations facilitated by the Armada Group USA, Inc. persuaded us on the strategic value of a partnership whereby both companies could build shareholder value. CareDecision has realized the value of our enterprise and upon the effective date of our public registration, CareDecision has agreed to distribute to their shareholders most of the equity we are providing as a dividend, with CareDecision shareholders perhaps reaping additional financial benefit under the new tax laws."

Patrick Cole, President of Armada Group USA, Inc., concluded, "We first approached CareDecision with the prospect of the sale of their medical technologies to DataFuzion. During the course of the discussions it became clear that another type of transaction was preferable, one that would allow DataFuzion to accomplish its primary goal of becoming a reporting public company, while at the same time allowing CareDecision to review other offers for its valuable medical technologies. We have taken a big first step with the closing of this transaction and envision additional transactions of this type in the near future."
