Immunovative Inc. Signs Memorandum of Understanding With Hamden, Connecticut Based Marvanal Inc.; Developer of Food Protein Based Technologies for Dairy Products

NEW HAVEN, CT--(Marketwire - Mar 14, 2013) - Immunovative Inc. (OTCQB: [ IMUN ]) or ("the Company") today announced the signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Hamden, Connecticut based Marvanal Inc. ("Marvanal") to acquire the exclusive marketing rights within the State of New York for Marvanal's Lactose-Free dairy product line, currently under development. 

Marvanal's food protein based concentration technology focuses on the elimination of fat from dairy products, thereby lowering the caloric content without compromising any nutritional benefits. The technological premise underlying Marvanal's Lactose-Free dairy product line is defined as the following: the specific formula and system to both hydrate and de-lactate multi viscosity dairy products with the ability to adjust the protein content of cheese. 

The exclusive marketing rights will include all future intellectual property relating to the potential development of new or enhanced Marvanal product lines. In exchange for these exclusive rights, Marvanal will receive a 5% equity stake in the Company and net revenue royalties equal to 10% derived from future commercialization of Marvanal products sold in New York. 

Commenting on the MOU, IMUN's CEO Seth M. Shaw commented, "The possibility of the Company owning the exclusive rights to market Marvanal's dairy product line in New York represents a compelling business opportunity for the Company and its shareholders. This novel approach utilized by Marvanal's food protein technology has the potential to provide consumers with a fat free, low calorie alternative for common dairy products. A number of prospective target markets have already been identified for these products and both management teams will work diligently towards the signing of a definitive agreement and the shared goal of a commercial product launch during the summer of 2013." 

Marvanal President Mr. Alex L. Bozzi IV expressed, "We are very excited about the possibility of establishing this business relationship with the Company with the goal to commercialize our highly beneficial dairy products. We are extremely impressed with the Company's management team and are eager to take the next step and enter into a definitive agreement." 

Once both companies complete due diligence to each company's respective satisfaction, the parties expect to negotiate and enter into definitive agreement.
