Vincent Mehdizadeh, have agreed to amend a voting agreement in connection with the companys shares. Under terms of the voting agreement amendment, VM Group executed a majority shareholder consent to eliminate certain super voting rights from the companys Series A Preferred Stock, and further deferred VM Groups right to appoint a director to the companys board. The amendment also extended the expiration date of the voting agreement to July 2018, and the company agreed to accelerate the remaining $328,877 payments due on a promissory note to a member of VM Group. Medbox also announced that VM Group voluntarily cancelled and retired all of its two million Medbox preferred shares and three million of its Medbox common shares, effectively relinquishing VM Groups majority voting position. The action of VM Group has the effect of extending greater voting authority among all shareholders and should have a positive long-term impact on the companys corporate structure, said Jeff Goh, President and interim Chief Executive Officer of Medbox.

Medbox Engages Israel-Based Medical Marijuana Consultancy, as Company Prepares to Enter Cultivation Market Los Angeles, California (FSCwire) - Medbox, Inc. (OTCQB: MDBX), a provider of specialized services to the cannabis sector, including operators of dispensaries, cultivation centers, manufacturers and research facilities in those states where approved, today announced it has engaged an experienced Israel-based medical marijuana consultancy, as it prepares to enter the cultivation market and work with licensed independent growers. After 30 years of cannabis industry experience in the United States, Israel and Europe, Avner Barak, co-founder of Cannguru Agrotechnic Consulting Ltd. (CAC), recently was brought on to consult with Medbox on proprietary true-to-type genetics, expert cultivation techniques and business development opportunities. Barak is currently co-leading Canndoc, which is one of eight licensed growers supplying medicine to thousands of Israeli patients and has operated a medical cannabis farm in Israel since 2009 for the Israel Ministry of Health. We are aligning ourselves with world class experts, as we enter a new phase in our companys development, said Jeff Goh, President and interim Chief Executive Officer of Medbox. It is critical that products produced on our property by licensed independent growers be of the highest pharmaceutical quality to ensure efficacy and consistency for patients, as well as to drive sustainable revenues. After an exhaustive review of global industry experts, we selected CAC and Barak based on their experience and long history of success, guiding physicians, nurses, academic researchers and others, in a country known for its scientific and medical prowess. The solid reputation Barak has built among growers, harvesters and research developers, as well as working closely with hospitals and healthcare professionals in Israel, will provide a significant benefit to Medbox and to our customers, Goh added. Barak said, We are impressed with the Medbox management team and strategy as it enters and begins to penetrate the cultivation market. Our master growers and expert extractors look forward to doing our part to promote quality, and, in turn, to help Medbox build its professional and leadership stature. Medbox recently announced that it expects marijuana cultivation by a licensed independent grower to begin on a recently purchased property in Pueblo, Colorado in the first quarter of 2016, with initial revenues from marijuana cultivation starting in mid-2016. The company completed the purchase of 320 acres of farmland in Pueblo in early August. About Medbox, Inc.
