GrowBLOX Sciences, Inc. Partners with LaurelCo, LLC to Obtain Licenses to Cultivate and Dispense Medical Marijuana in Illinois

LAS VEGAS, July 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- GrowBLOX Sciences, Inc. (OTCQB: GBLX) is pleased to announce the execution of a binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with LaurelCo, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company formed to pursue the acquisition of both cultivation and dispensary medical marijuana licenses in the state of Illinois. Pursuant to the MOU, GBLX will acquire a 20% equity interest in LaurelCo, LLC in exchange for licenses to use our proprietary GrowBLOX^TM growing chambers, as well as all technology related to the machines and to various other proprietary technologies ("GrowBLOX^TM Solutions") required for the cloning, growing, curing, and creation of pharmaceutical grade medical marijuana. Further, GBLX will provide technical assistance during the upcoming complex Illinois license application process. The MOU further provides that after LaurelCo, LLC has received one or more licenses in the state, GBLX will provide growing chambers for the LaurelCo, LLC's growing facilities, in exchange for an accelerated payback of actual costs, plus a 10% royalty interest going forward in any products created in the chambers and sold by the LaurelCo, LLC licensed entity.

Laurel Dineff, CEO and principal of LaurelCo, LLC said, "We are extremely excited about our new arrangement with GBLX. We have expended considerable resources in developing our plan for medical marijuana growth in this great state of Illinois. After exhaustive research, we have concluded that GBLX has not only the best growing technology, but also the best approach to making medical marijuana the serious pharmaceutical  it should be to treat the many maladies for which it has proven to be effective."

Craig Ellins, CEO of GBLX, stated, "We could not be more pleased to have this partnership with LaurelCo, LLC. The resources that its principals have made available to it, the prodigious quantity of good work that has already been done in terms of obtaining real property and other facilities necessary for the business, and the wonderful attitude of LaurelCo, LLC's management will make for a successful licensing effort and a prosperous and exemplary business. Moreover," he continued, "the agreement with LaurelCo, LLC represents a clear step forward in the GBLX strategy to create a nationwide supply of pharmaceutical grade and branded medical marijuana that is consistent and efficacious no matter where it is grown. With the formalization of our relationship with LaurelCo, LLC in Illinois, we are setting a standard for our growth into states in which GBLX does not have resources in place to operate a medical marijuana business by seeking out great partnerships who will operate the local business and be part of our nationwide plans."
