Green Leaf Innovations CEO Robert Mederos Issues Letter to Shareholders and Provides Corporate Update Focusing on Long-Term Growth and Value Creation

Green Leaf Innovations, Inc.

McapMediaWire -- Green Leaf Innovations, Inc., (“Green Leaf” or the “Company”) (OTC: GRLF), an emerging growth company engaged in the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of handmade premium cigars, today issued the following letter to its shareholders from Green Leaf Innovations CEO Robert Mederos: Dear Fellow Green Leaf Innovations Shareholders, I hope this letter finds you in good health and in high spirits. On behalf of our employees, partners, and other key stakeholders, I am delighted to have you as shareholders and valued members of our corporate family, and it is my pleasure to provide you with this update to share our vision for the future of our company. Who We Are For investors new to our company, our business focuses on marketing and distributing handmade premium cigars manufactured in Nicaragua. We strategically import and distribute premium cigar brands and private label brands to cigar lounges, smoke shops, convenience stores, and vape shops across the United States and in international markets. Additionally, we distribute packaged whole-leaf tobacco to other wholesale distributors of consumer tobacco products. The Importance of Our Foundational Operations in Nicaragua Nicaragua is a land rich with volcanic soil, which gives our tobacco its unique character. The fertile valleys of Jalapa and Estelí and the increasing tobacco cultivation in Condega and Ometepe have provided us with exquisite filler, binder, and wrapper leaves essential for our premium cigars. The importance of having a long-standing operation in Nicaragua cannot be understated. In fact, during the first eight months of 2022, Nicaragua-based cigar firms shipped 167 million cigars to the United States, an 8.9 percent increase over the same period in 2021. Our partnership with a third-generation, family-owned Nicaraguan business has been instrumental in crafting high-quality boutique cigars. Their passion and attention to detail have allowed us to maintain consistency and deliver unique flavors to our customers. Our production process, from greenhouse seedlings to fermentation and final product, is carefully managed to ensure the highest quality of cigars. We employ traditional techniques, such as row plowing with oxen and eucalyptus stick curing, alongside modern technology, like custom water filtration and drip irrigation systems, to balance tradition and innovation perfectly. Every cigar product I ship out reflects my commitment to delivering the best possible customer experience. I would even say I am obsessed with our quality control, rooted in being from a third-generation Cuban tobacco family. My cigars reflect the pride of my family, and I will never compromise quality for a quick buck. A Growing Industry on the Rise The global luxury cigar market was valued at USD 11.61 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2% from 2021 to 2028. According to Cigar Aficionado Magazine, more than 307 million imported handmade, premium cigars were shipped to the United States in just the first eight months of 2022, an increase of 4.3 percent. Shipping 300 million cigars was once considered the benchmark for a good year in the cigar business: now, it’s just a starting point. In fact, according to the Cigar Association of America, imports through November 30, 2022 have continued an upward trend for premium cigar imports at a 2% year-over-year growth rate, while imports of popular price cigars are down 12% in the same period. Key Growth Initiatives for Green Leaf Looking ahead, we see significant growth potential in the premium cigar market. We will continue to strengthen our partnerships, expand our distribution network, and explore new domestic and international markets. We have discovered unattended markets ripe for growth, including targeting golf courses, hotels and resorts, sporting events, and business gatherings. These markets have untapped potential, ignored by major brands and large industrial producers who continue to focus on traditional channels. Nearly 10% of all U.S. premium cigar sales occur on golf courses or in relation to golf. Yet, point-of-sale displays at golf clubs are generally ignored by major brands. We have the capabilities to deliver bespoke, white-label orders that meet the customer’s unique specifications for style, volume, and quality. We have been approached by several large potential customers in the wine and liquor industry, along with retailers that are interested in pairing our cigars with complementary products. Our cigars can pair with other premium products for an all-encompassing customer experience. Our B2B customers in the market are increasingly launching e-commerce websites in large, lucrative markets owing to the rising internet penetration and increasing propensity for mobile shopping among consumers. Our cigars can pair with other premium products for an all-encompassing customer experience. Corporate Updates It is fair to say that up to this point, we have not made any public comments or addressed investors, only making our regulatory filings and issuing occasional press releases. Going forward, Green Leaf will be more transparent in our investor communications. As we announced earlier this month, I have hired an investor relations agency to address investor concerns, answer questions, and help bring new investors to our company. Running this operation between our offices in Florida and our factory in Nicaragua, I’ve had to wear many different hats, and regretfully I couldn’t keep up with all the investor inquiries. This will no longer be the case, and I urge everyone to contact our investor relations agency with their questions. I invite everyone to subscribe to our distribution list to stay informed on upcoming developments. Please visit: https://greenleafinnovations.co/subscribe-for-free-newsletter/. In the coming weeks, we will update everyone on the progress we’ve made in growing our business. We intend on actively marketing our company, putting more resources into social media and popular online investor forums to generate greater awareness of our story. We are working on updating our investor presentation and website. We will inform everyone of these updates in a timely manner. Regarding our tier 1 Regulation A Offering, we recently filed an amended Offering Circular where we amended the final pricing of the offering to a price of $0.08 per share of Series B Preferred Stock (from $0.10) for a total aggregate offering amount of $8,000,000. The cigar manufacturing and distribution business is capital-intensive, from raw materials and equipment to SG&A (and being a public company). We need growth capital to fulfill purchase orders and scale our business through the growth initiatives I’ve described. I don’t take stock dilution lightly and will only look to raise capital to grow our business and deliver value to shareholders. Going Forward Our commitment to providing exceptional cigars remains unwavering, and we are confident that our products will continue to delight cigar enthusiasts around the world. In closing, I would like to express my gratitude for your ongoing support and investment in Green Leaf Innovations, Inc. Our success is a testament to your belief in our vision, and I remain committed to delivering outstanding returns for our shareholders while preserving the rich tradition of hand-crafted, premium cigars. Sincerely, Robert Mederos Chief Executive Officer Green Leaf Innovations, Inc. About Green Leaf Innovations, Inc.

The Company strategically imports and exclusively distributes some of the best-known premium cigar brands in the marketplace.

GBB Drink Lab Sends a Cease-and-Desist Demand

GBB Drink Lab

McapMediaWire -- GBB Drink Lab (“GBB” or the “Company”), a maker of the world’s first formulated drink that aids in rapid blood alcohol detoxification has issued a cease-and-desist demand to FSD Pharma (NASDAQ: HUGE) (“FSD”) a publicly traded biotechnology company that operates in the pharmaceutical research and development business. GBB has a patented formula that accelerates the process of converting alcohol to sugar in the body. By enhancing the metabolic pathways that facilitate this process, the formula can help the body clear alcohol much faster than normal. The Company has been working on a proprietary drink for several years using its patented formula. FSD Pharma entered into a binding Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with GBB. The companies had ongoing discussions about an acquisition for many months that GBB has since terminated. Mr. John Gulyas, Co-Founder of GBB Drink Lab, met with FSD and its principals over many months and shared proprietary information with the company that included without limitation, information created and developed by the company relating to composition, formulation, and methods of using the composition and formulations for reducing the effects associated with alcohol consumption in drink and other edible and nonedible forms. Per the cease and desist letter sent to FSD, "Not only has FSD and its principals committed fraud by way of wrongfully inducing GBB Drink Lab into providing the Product and other confidential information, but FSD and its principals have also committed multiple breaches of the Agreement, including, but not limited to: (i) reverse-engineering the Product and/or other confidential information provided, in violation of Section 3 of the Agreement; and/or (ii) wrongfully asserting dominion over the Product and/or other confidential information (and all intellectual property rights pertaining thereto) by using such information to launch FSD’s recently announced Program”. Mr. Jarrett Boon, Co-Founder and CEO of GBB Drink Lab, states that “FSD Pharma has violated the NDA, developed a product using the Company's formula, trade secrets, methods, and has used the stolen information to gain investors for its own stock. GBB is aggressively taking legal action against the theft of its confidential information and has demanded that FSD halt its product from being launched”. Further evidence is supported that FSD Pharma has publicly announced the launch of a new research and development program targeting unmet medical needs for alcohol misuse. FSD Pharma has also announced the addition of Shark Tank investor and pitchman Kevin Harrington, and former Celsius (NASDAQ: CELH) CEO Gerry David to its Advisory Board to help commercialize its efforts. GBB has demanded that "FSD immediately cease and desist the program, including, but not limited to, use of all confidential and/or proprietary information provided by GBB Drink Lab relating thereto." About GBB Drink Lab GBB Drink Lab started with a vision of making a positive impact by offering practical, evidence-based solution to reducing Blood Alcohol Content. The company’s product has been meticulously crafted to optimize your ability to sober up thus enabling you to escape an inebriated state. GBB Drink Lab leadership team includes accomplished serial entrepreneurs, a former senior executive from one of the world’s largest beverage companies, and an industry-leading expert in flavoring science and product formulation.

A proxy is a computer networking mechanism serving as a mediator between you and the service you need. Mostly, this is needed for load balancing, privacy, and security, but there are also additional benefits for different spheres. Why should I use a proxy on PS4 and PS5? Here is the answer: Gaming services may request extra apps for better connectivity. A console can repeatedly ask for such an application and lag if you have no proxy service. That often happens if your WiFi is unsecured, there is data corruption, hardware problems, or the PlayStation network bans you. Proxies ensure the possibility of interruptions is minimized. Your gaming console gets an additional security shield. PlayStation never uses VPNs directly, but a proxy service with rotating IPs can help gamers circumvent geo-restrictions. So, What Is the Best Proxy Server for PS4 and PS5? Discover the top proxy server address PS4 PS5 here! All of them are different and can be more helpful for a specific game. #1 MobileHop — Best for the US Gaming Experience Overall 🥇 IPs and locations MobileHop focuses on US locations.

It provides IPs in North America, South America, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and Oceania. Creating a list of those here will take the whole website. But also, SmartProxy is a rare case that works with various locations in Oceania, such as Australia Fiji Micronesia Palau Tuvalu Christmas Island French Polynesia Nauru Papua New Guinea Vanuatu Cocos Islands Guam etc. Also, you can buy proxies for particular cities. Why choose SmartProxy? Besides the 195+ locs, this PS5 and PS4 proxy server provider guarantees a 99.99% uptime and 99.47% success rate and offers 50M+ residential, mobile, and data center IPs. SmartProxy is also great when you need PS5 servers for cheap. It also has the strongest support and a great community to help you.

That is a reliable proxy for gaming and other purposes, and the brand also contributes a ton to charity. Using BrightData, gamers get the needed fast connectivity with security and make this world healthier. #7 HideMyName — Best Cheap Proxy for Gaming of All This tested and trusted proxy provider protects all your passwords, transactions, and other data. HideMyName has been around for a long time, shows great performance, offers many locations, and has a strong customer protection policy. #8 IPRoyal — Best for the EU Gamers 🏰 IPRoyal has many payment plans and has made gaming-optimal ones the cheapest.

Moreover, the brand has created special services for gamers. Its wide bandwidth is 100% free! Furthermore, this best free proxy server has fast speeds and good support. Free Proxies VS Paid: Can a Free Proxy Carry You? 🤔 Free proxy servers are a popular consideration. Moreover, such apps and IP rotators can be costly, which does not help when a PS game already costs $50 and more. Like, excuse me, $30 for a security-boosting app when Dead Space is already $69.99, and Elden Ring is $59.99? Na, ima get a free proxy... The thing is, I do not recommend using even the best free proxy server. The so-called best free proxy app can be seemingly functional and helpful. Yet, practice shows that such tools usually have technical issues and only pretend to secure your device from digital threats. Moreover, the potentially best free proxy server will still have a lower speed than a paid one. Suppose you want a cool game and have two options: buy a licensed version or pirate it. You feel this difference, right? Sticking to the safest options is better, even when costly. Final Words 👋😀 Have you found the best proxy service for your needs? I hope yes! Stay safe, enjoy your gaming sessions, and may your PS always be protected! Best of luck! Contact Details Proxy Bros Nick +1 929-491-3157 hello@proxybros.com Company Website https://proxybros.com/

Comcast Texas Commits More Than $1M to Shrink Local Digital Divide in 2023

Comcast Texas

Comcast Texas, the Houston area's largest internet service provider, will commit more than $1 million to shrink the local digital divide this year by supporting more than 60 organizations and programs that help people connect to the Internet, learn digital skills, and climb the economic ladder. The investment is part of Comcast’s Project UP – a comprehensive $1 billion initiative to advance digital equity across the nation and help build a future of unlimited possibilities. To help fuel economic mobility locally this year, a large portion of Comcast Texas’ $1 million investment will go to area nonprofit organizations to fund community programs with the following focus: Connectivity & Adoption, Digital Skills in the Workforce and Entrepreneurship. Connectivity & Adoption Connectivity programs equip individuals, families and community partners with the right tools and resources to take advantage of the Internet. Adoption programs teach individuals the skills needed to increase competency and confidence in technology in order to use it proficiently. Digital Skills in the Workforce Over 90% of jobs available today require digital skills, yet nearly one-third of US workers lack opportunities to build these skills. Digital skills programs teach individuals the tech skills needed to land a job and stay competitive in the changing marketplace. Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurship programs focus on helping people build digital skills to launch and grow their businesses. “These investments are part of Comcast Texas’ ongoing commitment to provide people with the digital tools needed to succeed in this ever-connected world,” said Ralph Martinez, Comcast Texas’ Regional Senior Vice President. “As we expand our next-generation network across southeast Texas, we’re here to be good neighbors. We’re here to support and uplift the communities we’re honored to do business in by teaming up with trusted partners to invest in programs that make a difference.” The first round of Comcast Texas’ 2023 grant funding and other support to local organizations will be announced in May with more announcements made throughout the year. Additional support will be considered for local organizations that raise awareness about connectivity programs like Internet Essentials and the federal government’s Affordable Connectivity Program. Internet Essentials provides affordable home Internet for qualifying households ($9.95/mo for up to 50 Mbps, or $29.95/mo for up to 100 Mbps) — as well as low-cost computers, free WiFi hotspots, and free Internet training. The federal Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) provides qualified households with a credit of up to $30/mo towards internet and mobile services.
