Default SFIO-Smokefree Shipping Cartons to Begin Filling Conway's 140,000 Europe Locations

Press Release Source: Smokefree Innotec, Inc. On Monday June 28, 2010, 9:00 am
NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Smokefree Innotec, Inc.

Mr. Schroepfer further stated, ”This delivery marks the beginning of selling SFI’s Smokefree products beginning with the 6000 vending machines that Conway controls in Belgium. Conway is the biggest distributor in smokers’ product in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany. Selling in Belgian vending machines is the first step to develop SFI’s Smokefree solutions in vending machines and retail outlets in Northwest Europe.”

SFI’s European General Manager Manfred Bogaert commented, “I believe that the extensive distribution knowledge and financial strength of Conway makes it the ideal partner in this part of the world.”

According to SFI's C.E.O. Thomas Schroepfer, more announcements about European distribution will be made during his forthcoming European trip to visit multi-level marketing operations and distributors in the Benelux and Germany to finalize negotiations. Says Schroepfer: “The Company, expected to generate significant sales in Q2, encountered transportation delays from the recent Iceland volcano dust storms impacting schedules for our products and customers, but we are finally on track and headed for substantial revenues in the 3rd quarter of 2010.”

Smokefree Innotec Announces Access to New European Production and Distribution Facilities

Press Release Source: Smokefree Innotec, Inc. On Tuesday July 20, 2010, 9:00 am
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Smokefree Innotec, Inc. (Pinksheets: SFIO - News) Thomas Schroepfer, CEO, (http://www.sfio.us or http://www.realsmokefree.com) today stated that his extended European trip, undertaken at his own expense, has resulted in SFI developing new and significant contacts for new product marketing and production, in addition to solidifying existing arrangements for Euromarketing of current SFI product lines. Upon his return this past weekend, he informed the SFI Board of Directors that he had conducted a review with Manfred Boegart, SFI Director of European Operations, of all SFI relationships with its existing distributors, and found that any impediments and missing actions had been successfully dealt with and resulted in establishing stronger and more effective channels for SFI nicotine and non-nicotine flavored product distribution. He stated recent shipments to fill orders evidence that, and details of sales and scheduled shipments against SFI bank lines of credit will be released to the public pending approvals by customers to do so.

Mr. Schroepfer went on to state that he is finalizing negotiations to acquire new smokefree cigarette products already in distribution in Europe, and gain access to such additional new distribution for existing SFI products, details to be released as agreements are executed. He further informed the Board that an additional source for smokefree cigarette production equipment has been contacted to arrange for the import of that equipment for commencement of production within the United States.

Summarizing his trip, Mr. Schroepfer stated, “In my view, a great deal was accomplished in reinforcing confidence, enhancing our market position, and moving existing distribution arrangements forward to the complete satisfaction of our customers, as well as developing new channels and accessing new products and manufacturing capabilities. Shipments are in process to key distributors, but it is premature to disclose details and names at this time to avoid unwarranted attempts by unauthorized outside parties to contact them, which interferes with our relationships with these distributors, some of whom have already expressed to us deep resentment and dissatisfaction with any such attempts.”

Default SFIO-Cannabis Science Signs Joint Venture With Smokefree Innotec Inc. to Develop High

Cannabis Science Signs Joint Venture With Smokefree Innotec Inc. to Develop High-Tech Smoke-Free Vaporized Medical Cannabis Products

Press Release Source: Cannabis Science, Inc. On Thursday August 12, 2010, 3:03 pm EDT

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 12, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cannabis Science (OTCBB:CBIS - News), a pioneering U.S. biotech company developing pharmaceutical cannabis products announced today that it has executed a Joint Venture Agreement with Smokefree Innotec Inc. (Pink Sheets:SFIO - News). The objective of the joint venture is to develop and market several high-tech smoke-free vaporized medical cannabis pharmaceutical products. Under the joint venture, Smokefree Innotec, Inc. will provide its high-tech smoke-free vapor technology devices, and Cannabis Science will provide all the medical cannabis extract formulations. Both parties equally share in the revenues derived from this Joint Venture.

Dr. Robert Melamede, President & CEO of Cannabis Science Inc., stated, "Many patients smoke medical cannabis because it gives them rapid relief that allows them to monitor their usage. Smokefree Innotec's technology allows the patients even greater convenience and dosage control than smoking, without all of the possible health and social/legal problems associated with smoking. Cannabis Science will provide a variety of standardized medical marijuana formulations to be used with the Smokefree Innotec products, so that patients can self-monitor their dosages. Of course, these products will be of even greater value to patients who do not like to smoke since vaporizing minimizes the irritating and harmful effects caused by direct smoke contacting the lungs."

Thomas Schroepfer, CEO of Smokefree, stated, "We have entered into this joint venture with Cannabis Science to utilize their innovative knowledge of the science of cannabis and their laboratory research expertise. These competencies coupled with our high-tech products open the door for substantial product distribution channels on an international level. Our initial target markets will be the expanding number of States that have approved medical marijuana use according the applicable federal and state regulations. With our international distribution of Smokefree Innnotec products already well established, the entry into the Medical Cannabis market represents our commitment to significantly expand and distribute the new products across North America, while we identify and secure a market share of rapidly growing industries such as Medical Cannabis, Military Retail and Government service."

The managements of both companies are grateful for the expert guidance provided by retired Lieutenant Cornel Kevin Sullivan of Leading Points Corporation, (www.leadingpoints.com). Leading Points initiated the relationship between Cannabis Science and Smokefree Innotec that resulted in this joint venture. Leading Points Corporation, whose mission is matching industry leaders in order to capture market share for government and military distribution of products will continue in that capacity to further progress possible government and military use of the products developed from this joint venture.

Smokefree Innotec Confirms Joint Venture with Cannabis Science, Examines Potential of Medical Cannabis Market

Press Release Source: Smokefree Innotec, Inc. On Wednesday August 18, 2010, 6:39 pm EDT
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Smokefree Innotec, Inc. (Pink Sheets:SFIO) Thomas Schroepfer, CEO, (http://www.sfio.us or http://www.realsmokefree.com) confirmed today the announcement by the Biotech company Cannabis Science (OTCBB:CBIS - News) regarding entering into a joint venture agreement to develop and market several high-tech smoke-free vaporized medical cannabis pharmaceutical products, as released by CBIS on August 13. He stated, “Pursuant to the joint venture, Smokefree Innotec Inc will supply its high-tech smoke-free vapor technology devices and Cannabis Science will provide all the medical cannabis extract formulations.”

George Roth, CFO stated, “Our business of designing, developing, manufacturing and marketing hi-tech, nicotine and non-nicotine cigarette-like delivery devices which are completely smoke and vapor-free and tobacco-free, represents an excellent partnering with Cannabis Science to fill their needs for production and distribution in the fourteen US States that currently approve the medical use of cannabis. This partnering further represents our commitment to continue to expand our network of cutting edge technology partners to create ever expanding product lines, for devices delivering both nicotine and herbal therapeutic extracts, as seen on our web site http://www.sfio.us.”

Mr. Roth added, “It is worth repeating that this partnering with Cannabis Science will put Smokefree Innotec in the forefront of marketing devices delivering medical formulations of pharmacological extracts to dispensaries and healing centers already in existence, in compliance with applicable federal and state regulations. With the anticipated voter approval of Prop 19 in California, we believe the number of dispensaries and related retail establishments for marijuana and marijuana accessories will multiply rapidly.

“From the news reports, a majority of Californians continue to voice their support for Prop. 19, which would eliminate penalties for the private possession and use of marijuana by adults, and allow local governments to regulate retail cannabis production and sales. Further, the results of a series of randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials assessing the efficacy of inhaled marijuana consistently show that cannabis holds therapeutic value comparable to conventional medications, according to the findings of a 24-page report issued Wednesday to the California state legislature by the California Center for Medicinal Cannabis Research (CMCR).”

(See http://www.cmcr.ucsd.edu/CMCR_REPORT_FEB17.pdf.)

In an earlier release, Dr. Robert Melamede, President and CEO of Cannabis Science Inc., stated, "Many patients smoke medical cannabis because it gives them rapid relief that allows them to monitor their usage. Smokefree Innotec's technology allows the patients even greater convenience and dosage control than smoking, without all of the possible health and social/legal problems associated with smoking. Cannabis Science will provide a variety of standardized medical marijuana formulations to be used with the Smokefree Innotec products, so that patients can self-monitor their dosages. Of course, these products will be of even greater value to patients who do not like to smoke since vaporizing minimizes the irritating and harmful effects caused by direct smoke contacting the lungs."

Mr. Roth added, in San Diego, California alone, a grand jury report “estimated there are at least 5,000 medical marijuana patients in San Diego County, and it’s probable there are considerably more. Medical marijuana advocates say there could be 60,000.” “There are more marijuana dispensaries in Los Angeles than there are Starbucks,” candidate Chris Kelly said in a June 23rd San Diego Tribune article. According to Wikipedia, “Across California there are an estimated 2,100 dispensaries, co-operatives, wellness clinics and taxi delivery services in the sector known as 'cannabusiness.' That is more than all the Starbucks, McDonald’s and 7-Eleven outlets in the state put together17, according to The Sunday Times.”

Mr. Schroepfer added, “With our international distribution of Smokefree Innnotec products already well established, the entry into the Medical Cannabis market represents our commitment to significantly expand and distribute new products across North America. Identifying and securing market share of rapidly growing fields such as Medical Cannabis, Military Retail and Government service will continue to be led by the efforts of our partners at Leading Points Corporation. The management of both companies acknowledged their appreciation that they were brought together in this joint venture as another one of the successful business partnerships initiated by Leading Points Corporation (www.leadingpoints.com), whose mission is matching industry leaders in order to capture market share.”
