Avatar Ventures Signs Memorandum of Understanding With Fantasy Sports Website Fantrax.com

CARSON CITY, NV--(Marketwired - Nov 19, 2013) - Avatar Ventures Corp. (OTC Pink: ATAR) ("Avatar" "ATAR" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a nonbinding Memorandum of Understanding with Vauntek Inc. operating as Fantrax ("Fantrax.com"), a Fantasy Sports Website.

The Memorandum of Understanding contemplates a share exchange agreement between the parties wherein Fantrax.com will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Avatar or other arrangements will be made satisfactory to the parties. The transaction contemplated will be contained in a definitive agreement that is expected to be completed on or before February 15, 2014. 

Edward Minnema, President and CEO of ATAR, commented, "We are thrilled to sign this memorandum of understanding between the parties. Fantrax.com is a premium Fantasy sports website with a substantial user base. Fantrax.com is a company with increasing revenues and we believe that once complete this transaction will benefit both Fantrax.com and Avatar shareholders. This is a very exciting time for all the parties involved and we look forward to giving our existing and future shareholders a rare opportunity for growth while at the same time assisting Fantrax.com with added exposure thus adding to its membership base. We are optimistic that the parties will reach a definitive agreement prior to February 15 2014." 

According to a Forbes August 20, 2013 article citing statistics from The Fantasy Sports Trade Association, they estimate that 32 million Americans spend $467 per person or about $15 billion(USD) in total playing fantasy sports. Roughly, $11 billion (USD) flows toward football alone. These figures don't count ad revenue for fantasy hosting sites. The NFL's annual revenue falls just under $10 billion currently. So the "derivative" market has grown larger than the foundational market.

Lee Kleiner, President and CEO of Fantrax.com, stated, "Fantrax.com looks forward to working with Avatar towards a definitive agreement that is mutually beneficial to both parties. Fantrax.com is committed to technical innovation and responsive customer service. Our "League Manager" product -- the most widely used product in the industry -- is far superior to our competition and we are constantly introducing new features that aren't available on competitor sites. Our goal is to become the world's #1 fantasy sports destination."
