MIAMI, FL--(Marketwired - Sep 10, 2014) - Novus Acquisition & Development Corp. (
"Finding suppliers is a big challenge in this industry," said Novus Acquisition & Development Corp. CEO Frank Labrozzi. "The TKO Organics' products stand out from a market that is flooded by entrepreneurs growing mediocre strains using subpar techniques. Quality control and standardization is the key, while this agreement provides the company with an adequate supply of medical marijuana for its growing number of MedPlan patients."
TKO Organics is a fully-operational indoor organic medical cannabis growing and production facility in compliance with the Washington State Medical Use of Marijuana Act (RCW69.51A). By leveraging cutting-edge indoor growing technology and proprietary extraction techniques, the company will help standardize products for Novus' MMJ patients with optimal cannabinoid ratios and other beneficial characteristics. The extraction techniques and new genetic varieties pioneered by the TKO will provide Novus' patients with medicine that has been known to aid in treating or relieving debilitating medical conditions. In a testament to its growing line-up of high quality products, TKO recently won second place at the High Times Seattle Cannabis Cup for their Slips product that they produce via a joint venture with Oakor.
Under the exclusive agreement, TKO Organics will work as an outsourced administrative arm for Novus Medical Group, handling quality control, delivery coordination, distribution to dispensaries, and providing a user-friendly ordering process to Novus MedPlan patients in Washington, Arizona, Oregon, California, Colorado Nevada and Michigan.

The state laws are in conflict with the federal Controlled Substances Act. The current administration has effectively stated that it is not an efficient use of resources to direct federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state designated laws allowing the use and distribution of medical marijuana. However, there is no guarantee that the current administration, nor any future administration, will not change this policy and decide to enforce the federal laws strongly. Any such change in the federal government's enforcement of current federal laws could cause significant financial changes to the Company. While we do not intend to harvest, distribute or sell cannabis or cannabis related products, we may be harmed by a change in enforcement by federal or state governments.

The company's mission is to provide patients with true organic medicine, education about cannabis, and compassionate care. We are able to accomplish our mission through our knowledge of product, dedication to customer satisfaction, maintaining quality, and always striving for excellence. Using our proprietary techniques, we are able to produce organic medicine in quantities that rival synthetic crop production. While synthetic crop production isn't necessarily bad, organic cannabis has more beneficial cannabinoid properties and a wider range of flavonoids and terpenes. These are hugely beneficial for medical use, and are pivotal in making us unique in the marketplace.
