"Brean is a well-established, highly respected and leading investment banking firm concentrated on advising small-cap and mid-sized organizations.

In addition to its investment banking services, Brean has agreed to act as the Kinbasha's Designated Advisor for Disclosure ("DAD") for the purpose of certifying the Company's publicly traded common stock on the OTCQX, a marketplace offered by OTC Markets Group Inc. Kinbasha's management team plans to uplist to the OTCQX as soon as practicable.

Richard Serrano, Managing Director at Brean Capital commented, "We are delighted to partner with Kinbasha as they pursue significant new growth opportunities. Our goal will be to provide support to the company in the financial and value creation components of its corporate strategy through our full-service investment banking capabilities. Furthermore, we will also be assisting Kinbasha and their loyal shareholders with the company's future uplisting to the OTCQX."

Kinbasha's plan is to raise capital in order to build out and/or acquire additional pachinko parlor stores within select metropolitan areas in Japan, and begin to shift the company's strong branding, game machine management systems and proprietary point-of-sale analytical technology to areas where pachinko stores are more profitable.

Mr. Takahama concluded, "Kinbasha is highly focused on improving our financial position, broadening our sales and moving to a more senior exchange. We believe our partnership with Brean will help us achieve these efforts and in turn, translate into long-term value for our shareholders."
