CEN Biotech Inc. (FITX) Clarification on Ownership
Post# of 94145
MADISON HEIGHTS, MI / February 3, 2014 / ACCESSWIRE / Creative Edge Nutrition, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: FITX), in a previous press release announced a collaborative deal in the operation of its future medical marijuana facility in Lakeshore, Ontario Canada. 8k filings with the SEC through our collaborative partner have led to confusion in the ownership held by Creative Edge Nutrition Inc.
This is to clear up any confusion. Creative Edge Nutrition Inc. owns 75% (Seventy-Five Percent) of Cen Biotech, Inc.
The structure of the CEN Biotech Inc. ownership was done with the best interest of shareholders and the company in mind. The percentages held by Wise Phoenix LLC, AJOA Holdings LLC and the “key Players” are held in trust on behalf of Creative Edge Nutrition. This structured ownership was for a multitude of reasons; most importantly, to prevent a Hostile takeover and protect what is the company’s most valuable asset. It also prevents control from being in the hands of one individual or party.
Outside parties have attempted to acquire the land the company has leased from the owner. He has received offers in excess of $25 million dollars for 10.3 acres in an attempt to obtain the site. In the past months, numerous hedge funds, investments banks and large corporations have attempted to acquire up to 80% of the facility in exchange for capital. Bill Chabaan, President, is adamant: “We have stayed vigilant in our focus and will institute any and all preventative measures to protect our interests.”
Bill Chabaan reassures shareholders, “There have been many offers of financing but it was important to bring on a collaborative partner who understands our market and will contribute to our operations. As always, my team and I, act ONLY in the best interest of our shareholders.”
