November 08 2011 - 6:00AM
Marketwired
Entest BioMedical Inc. (OTCQB: ENTB) (PINKSHEETS: ENTB) today
announced the execution of a definitive agreement with Titterington
Veterinary Services Inc, a Eugene, Oregon-based corporation which
operates a veterinary practice under the trade name Emerald Valley
Pet Medical Center.
Pursuant to the agreement, ENTB is entitled to receive 97% of
the revenue to be generated by Emerald Valley Pet Medical Center
for a period of no less than seven years, ownership of intellectual
property including the Emerald trade name and customer lists as
well as the obligation of Titterington Veterinary Services to
assist and participate in the Company's biotechnology research and
development activities over the term of the agreement.
As consideration for the abovementioned, the Company is
obligated to issue $700,000 of its shares to Dr. Ronald
Titterington, DVM, pay certain expenses on behalf of Titterington
Veterinary Services over the term of the agreement and pay a bonus
to Dr. Ronald Titterington equal to half the profit realized by
ENTB over the term of the Agreement. The Company has also agreed to
lease space in Eugene, Oregon for use by Titterington.
Entest's Chairman & CEO, David R. Koos, stated, "We are very
excited to enter into a business relationship with Emerald Valley
Pet Center. We find the operators of this animal medical center to
be highly experienced veterinarians dedicated to the practice of
quality veterinary medicine. With this relationship, Entest may
benefit from a dramatically increased near term revenue stream,
expansion of its distribution channels for products in the
Company's pipeline and the addition of another research center for
veterinary biotechnology research."
Koos went on to add: "Despite the current economic malaise, we
found that Emerald Valley generated revenue of over $800,000 in
2010."
The Company's current business model involves acquiring
veterinary hospitals to be utilized as potential distribution
channels for its immuno-therapeutic cancer vaccine for canines
(dogs) which is currently in development. The Company believes
that, in addition to serving as distribution channels for the
Company's immuno-therapeutic cancer vaccine for canines, these
clinics will be able to generate revenue for the Company from
current operations.
Under current law, the State of Oregon generally prohibits the
ownership of veterinary practices by anyone other than a licensed
veterinarian. The Company believes that entering into agreements
such as the Titterington Agreement with veterinary practices in
states which prohibit corporate ownership of veterinary practices
will benefit ENTB by:
(a) providing ENTB with revenue streams from those markets and
(b) providing ENTB with distribution channels for its products and
services within those markets.
ENTB has filed a form 8-K with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission which contains as an exhibit the agreement
described in this news release.
