Growblox Sciences, Inc. with Pacific Leaf Partners LLC, Announces Ownership of Flagship Teco Medical Cannabis Growing Facility
LAS VEGAS, July 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Growblox Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: GBLX) is pleased to announce that an entity associated with Pacific Leaf Partners LLC, the strategic partner that financed the buildout of the Teco Avenue cultivation facility in Las Vegas, has completed the purchase of that building.
In connection with the purchase, the initial term of the GBLX lease covering the facility was extended to ten years, with an optional five-year extension. GBLX has also entered into a preliminary amendment of its existing agreements with Pacific Leaf Partners. The amendment eliminates Pacific Leaf's option to buy into the cultivation facility itself, and will substantially reduce Pacific Leaf's existing royalty, which was done in consideration of the substantial intellectual property relating to proprietary strains of cannabis conveyed exclusively to GBLX by Pacific Leaf. The new longer term lease, the elimination of the option, and the decrease in royalty obligations were exchanged for the issuance of two million shares of GBLX common stock to Pacific Leaf or its designees. The precise terms of the new arrangements will be released upon completion.
John Poss, the CEO of GBLX, said, "We are extremely pleased to deepen our relationship with Pacific Leaf Partners, whose interests are completely aligned with our own. The purchase of the building allows us to comfortably move forward with the capital investment to expand the facility to over 1,000 lights, increasing production five-fold. The reduced royalty on the proprietary products that are being provided to us by Pacific Leaf, combined with our exclusive control of the Kyle Kushman brand in Nevada, creates an exciting opportunity for profitability from our primary Las Vegas medical cannabis cultivation facility."
