Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 13, 2023) - Tenet Fintech Group Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTC Pink: PKKFF) ("Tenet" or the "Company"), an innovative AI service provider and operator of the Business Hub™, today announced that it is continuing to collaborate with the Ontario Securities Commission's (the "OSC") review process of the Company's minimum of CAD$20,000,000 maximum of CAD$30,000,000 short form prospectus public offering (the "Prospectus") to ensure that the Prospectus meets the requirements as set out in subsection 56(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario) to provide full, true and plain disclosure of all material facts relating to the securities of Tenet.

"We would like to thank our shareholders for their patience while the Prospectus review process runs its course," commented Tenet CEO Johnson Joseph. "At the end of the day, everyone involved in the process wants the same thing, and that's to make sure investors have all the information they need to make an informed decision as to the merits of investing in the Company, and I have no doubt that we'll be able to do that. Meanwhile, we're taking other measures at our disposal to ensure that we have the capital we need to continue to execute our business plan."

Tenet would also like to announce that Ms. Carol Penhale was named Chair of the Company's board of directors in December 2022. Ms. Penhale first joined the Company's board of directors in August 2022 as Chair of its Governance Committee, a role she will continue to occupy in addition to her new role as Chair of the board. Ms. Penhale commented "I am delighted to help steward Tenet, senior management and its Board as Chair into 2023 with the opportunities and challenges that exist for the Company and its shareholders as we move forward."
