Farm Lands of Guinea press release | 1 April 2011
Kryptic Entertainment Inc. has officially changed its name to Farm Lands of Guinea, Inc. (the "Company" or "FLG"), and will trade from today forward under the new ticker symbol of "FLGI" following its recent equity offering and share exchange. FLG through its 90%-owned subsidiary, Land & Resources (Guinea) SA ("Land & Resources"), controls nearly a quarter of a million acres of underutilized West African agricultural holdings under an agreement with the Ministry of Agriculture of Guinea ("MAG"). Last month FLG completed a reverse merger transaction to become a publicly-traded company in the U.S., valuing the Company at USD$45 million.
"The name change to Farm Lands of Guinea and our new FLGI symbol are key to our launch into the U.S. capital markets," said FLG CEO Michael Barton. "We look forward to driving FLG's future growth and expansion as a public company," Mr. Barton added.
Land & Resources is a development stage agricultural company in the Republic of Guinea ("Guinea"). It intends to engage in acquiring and consolidating farm land and operations in Guinea and rehabilitating them back into production using modern agricultural techniques and practices. Land & Resources currently plans to develop 8,815 hectares in the villages of N'Dema and Konindou to grow maize and soybeans in rotation as a pilot scheme for the development of 98,400 hectares lying to the south and east of Saraya.
Pursuant to the Contract for a Program of Agricultural Development in Guinea dated September 16, 2010 (the "Contract for Development"), MAG has agreed to grant to Land & Resources 99-year leases over two parcels of land in the villages of N'Dema and Konindou of 5,340 and 3,475 hectares respectively to be developed as agricultural land.
On the same date, Land & Resources and MAG entered into an Option Agreement (the "Option Agreement") pursuant to which Land & Resources was granted an option to assume a lease of approximately 98,400 hectares (243,151 acres) located in the village of Saraya in Guinea (the "Option Land").
On October 25, 2010 Land & Resources signed a Protocol d'Accord with MAG (the "Protocol D'Accord") under which the Company undertook obligations to survey and map additional underutilized land in Guinea estimated to be up to 1.5 million hectares (3.7 million acres) of combined area and prepare it for third party development under 99-year leases.
FLG proposes to develop the leased land to grow in rotation, maize and soybeans. Given the rainfall, the temperature profile and the nature of the soil, it is anticipated that the land when developed will produce about 4 tons of soybeans per hectare. The rotation will be one year of maize followed by two years of Soya. FLG's program represents a major breakthrough for the new democratically-elected government of the Republic of Guinea in their priority plans for food self-sufficiency. The completion of FLG's agricultural activities will result in a multi-million dollar inward investment into the Republic of Guinea.
