CONNECTIVCORP SIGNS CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE AQUA DEVELOPMENT CORP.


NEW YORK & SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 10, 2002--ConnectivCorp
(OTCBB:CTTV) announced today that it had signed a contribution agreement
pursuant to which it will acquire 87.27% of the outstanding common stock of Aqua
Development Corp ("ADC"), which will become a majority-owned subsidiary of
ConnectivCorp, in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of ConnectivCorp's Series A
Preferred Stock which are convertible into an aggregate of 58,470,900 shares of
ConnectivCorp common stock which will represent approximately 83% of the issued
and outstanding shares of ConnectivCorp.

The transaction is subject to certain conditions, including certain approvals,
and is expected to close in November 2002.

ConnectivCorp, originally a medical communications network, announced last year
a restructuring and refocusing of the company with the intention of seeking an
appropriate merger or acquisition partner.

Charles T. Condy founded ADC in 1989. ADC currently operates seven restaurants
including three Aqua restaurants (San Francisco, at the Bellagio in Las Vegas,
and at the St. Regis Monarch Beach), Charles of Nob Hill and Redwood Park both
in San Francisco, NOBHILL at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and Pisces in
Burlingame, California. Unaudited sales of ADC owned and managed restaurants for
the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002 were approximately $25 million. ADC's
revenues for that period were comprised or $13.2 million from owned restaurants
and $1.1 million in management fees from managed restaurants. ADC has received
many food industry awards, including the prestigious Ivy Award in 1998 from
Restaurants and Institutions Magazine and the AAA Four Diamonds award for 2001.
ADC's 2002 nominations for The James Beard Foundation Awards include Aqua
restaurant in San Francisco as one of five restaurants in the United States
nominated for the S. Pellegrino Outstanding Restaurant Award and NOBHILL (MGM
Grand Hotel in Las Vegas) for the illy Best New Restaurant Award.

Mr. Condy, ADC's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, was the founder of
California Energy and served as its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer from
1971 to 1991. California Energy was a leading developer and marketer of
electricity generated from geothermal steam listed on the NASDAQ and then
American Stock Exchanges, whose revenues grew to $250 million under Condy's
leadership. Mr. Condy left the company shortly after 25% of California Energy
was acquired by the Peter Kiewit Company, a privately held $5.0 billion
engineering and construction company. California Energy ultimately grew to $1.5
billion in revenues.

In announcing the planned acquisition, ConnectivCorp's Chairman, Robert S.
Ellin, said, "The acquisition of Aqua Development Corp. is an important
opportunity for CTTV's stockholders and fulfills our stated acquisition
commitment. We are very pleased to have the opportunity to work with Charles
Condy and his team and help them implement ADC's growth plans."

Mr. Condy commented, "This transaction is the next step in our plans to
accelerate the rollout of Aqua, and its affiliated restaurant concepts and to
make Aqua a major participant in the full service restaurant industry."

Upon completion of the acquisition, it is intended that Mr. Condy will become
Chairman of the Board and the current ADC stockholders will control a majority
interest in ConnectivCorp capital stock.
