LAIYANG, China, April 12 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ --
Jiangbo
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: JGBO) (the "Company" or "Jiangbo"),
today announced that Laiyang Jiangbo Pharmaceuticals, Co., Ltd., the Company's
operating entity in China, has recently entered into an amended agreement with
the Land and Resources Bureau of Laiyang City to eliminate the investment
requirements on the contract for land use right transfer which was signed by
the two parties on October 27, 2009 ("the October 2009 Contract").
Pursuant to the October 2009 Contract, Jiangbo has purchased the right to
use a 385,800 square meter parcel of state-owned construction land for a
period of 50-years at a purchase price of RMB115,764,000 (approximately
US$16,983,000). The Company plans to build a new factory in this area for the
production of future new self-developed and acquired drugs. On March 31, 2010,
the October 2009 Contract was amended to eliminate the previous standard
requirements that (i) total investment shall be no less than RMB868,200,000
(approximately US$127,365,000 ); and (ii) the investment intensity shall be no
less than RMB3,000 per square meter. All the other provisions of the October
2009 Contract remain unaffected and in full force.
"We are happy to announce the elimination of the investment requirements
in the October 2009 Contract and appreciate the support of the Land and
Resources Bureau of Laiyang City for Jiangbo's future plans in the region. The
amended terms provide the Company with much more financial flexibility in our
construction and investment plans, as well as reduce our over all capital
expenditure commitment in the coming years," commented Mr. Wubo Cao, the
Company's Chief Executive Officer. "Planning for the new land is underway and
we look forward to providing an update in the coming quarters."
