Mr. Brink has over 30 years of experience in the organization and operational management of a number of successful high tech startups. Mr. Brink was a Founder, Member of the Board, Chief Operating Officer and later General Counsel for Mona Vie, Inc. ("Mona Vie") the fastest growing private company in the food and beverage industry incorporated in 2003 with annual sales in excess of $942 million and growth of over 100% per quarter for a three year period. Mr. Brink is a member of the Board and Managing Director of Full Spectrum Laboratories Ltd. - developing cutting edge cannabinoid products as well as Chairman of the Board of Boreal Technologies Inc. creating the exclusive plant-based omega products - HempOmega™ and H2Omega™.

Mr. Brink's addition as President of Naturally Splendid USA comes following the recent letter of intent with Full Spectrum Laboratories Limited (FSL) headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, to license FSL's cannabinoid extraction and patented formulation technologies. The license will grant Naturally Splendid USA worldwide rights to a suite of advanced cannabinoid technologies, including the first issued USPTO patent for water-soluble cannabinoids, essential for the development and manufacturing of cannabinoid-based nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products and therapies. The license will allow Naturally Splendid USA to create products and industrial solutions in those countries and jurisdictions that allow for the manufacture and distribution of cannabinoid based products.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is arguably becoming the most sought-after cannabis compound due to its medicinal and nutraceutical properties:

• Non-psychoactive

• Anticonvulsant

• Anti-epileptic

• Anti-inflammatory

• Antioxidant

• Antipsychotic

• Neurological protection

Naturally Splendid USA's worldwide license will be for an initial term of 10 years with renewable 5 year term options. The license will allow Naturally Splendid USA to also sub-license these cannabinoid technologies to approved third party companies in countries that allow for the production and distribution of cannabinoid-based products and solutions. A definitive agreement is anticipated to close on or before October 31, 2014. This transaction is subject to TSXV approval and legal due diligence by NSP.

Naturally Splendid CEO Craig Goodwin states, "We have had the privilege working with Mr. Brink for the past two years as the business relationship between Naturally Splendid and Boreal Technologies has grown. His business experience, expertise and successes are of the highest pedigree. Charlie is a true visionary who's had a number of significantly successful business ventures, including as the founder of a functional beverage company that accumulated $1 billion in sales in their first three years of operation and then surpassed $1 billion in sales in their fourth year of operation. Charlie's appointment as President is effective immediately"

"It's with great honor that I accept the position of President of Naturally Splendid USA", states Charlie Brink. As founder and financier of Full Spectrum Labs, C M H Biotech and Boreal Technologies, I have been able to observe and in fact participate, in the development of Naturally Splendid as our two companies engaged in business at several levels. To date, we have granted Naturally Splendid the exclusive North American rights for Boreal's omega technologies and have more recently signed a Letter Of Intent with the wholly owned US subsidiary intending to grant world wide licensing rights to our water soluble cannabinoid technology. In the position of President of Naturally Splendid's American subsidiary, I will be responsible for long term strategic planning, the development of a professional management team, regulatory compliance and the creation of its manufacturing and distribution infrastructure in the United States in order to prepare for the launch of hemp extracted cannabinoid formulated products and services in 2015."
