MINE Minerco Inc (CE)

Minerco Resources, Inc. (OTC:MINE), parent company of Level 5 Beverage Company, Inc., the makers of VitaminFIZZ®, announced that Level 5 has exercised its option to purchase an additional 21% equity stake in Avanzar Sales and Distribution, LLC in California. This option increases Level 5's equity of Avanzar from 30% to 51%.

"Part of our strategy to deliver greater long term value to shareholders is to increase our stockholders' equity by acquiring cash flowing assets," said V. Scott Vanis, Minerco's Chairman and CEO. "A larger stake in Avanzar is another step in achieving this goal. Avanzar has made huge strides in every aspect of growing the business since our initial partnership began six months ago. Furthermore, Avanzar was and is instrumental in growing VitaminFIZZ locations in Southern California."

Avanzar is a leading full service broker and distributor of world-class consumables and products. At the time of Level 5's initial acquisition in October 2014, Avanzar serviced 3,200 locations in the Southern California retail marketplace. Today, Avanzar has a footprint of over 5,300 locations including a 25% expansion in the San Diego metro market. These additional accounts include new contracts with Stater Bros., Walmart and Winco.

Bill Juarez, the President of Avanzar, stated, "We couldn't be more pleased with our partnership with Minerco and Level 5 and the organizational improvements that we have accomplished over these past 6 months. We know we are well positioned for exponential growth through this summer's selling season and into 2016."

Level 5's increased ownership of Avanzar was made in affiliation with Minerco, the parent company of Level 5. Under the terms of the deal, Level 5 will pay a fixed price of $400,000 in structured payments throughout 2015. The entire purchase price ($400,000) was entered as a Minerco-owned asset on the day the Exercise of the Option Agreement was executed. Level 5 also holds a second option to purchase up to 75% of the total equity of Avanzar at a predetermined price or a fixed multiple of revenues.

The use of proceeds is to be deployed, in part, to expand Avanzar's distribution and brokerage business both in locations and key accounts. Additionally, proceeds will also be used to expand its recently launched Merchandising and Sampling Department, which is expected to grow rapidly due to the massive demand for professional merchandising and sampling in Southern California. The proceeds will also be used to strategically and methodically pay down debt held on the Avanzar books.
