Dear Mr. Pirard:
I responded quickly because I saw the last sentence. Stevia has an IR line which is listed at the bottom of each press release. If you call it, you will know that it is frequently answered. Respectfully, I don't believe it's accurate that we ignore our shareholders. If you've felt ignored, we apologize. In fact, some of our shareholders that have called the IR line that have showed enthusiasm for our future are now paid consultants to Stevia. That is a fact.
In terms of the Real Hemp store, we are working harder than you can imagine each and every day to launch products (s) that will not only make good PR but more importantly, they will build shareholder value. Product development is a tedious process but there are at least 4 people that are actively involved on a daily basis including some weekends to make certain that our product launches become a short term reality. First and foremost, we are looking to launch products that address large markets but that also support a healthy lifestyle. I would suggest that there a really good chance that our first product (s) will be launched on the Real Hemp store by the end of year albeit there are no assurances. Product development is a tedious process but we are fully committed to launching high quality products as opposed to launching for the purpose of PR. I hope you can see and understand that vision.
The partnership with Ebbu is valid but I can't comment any further.
In terms of the transaction with Darden, we would obviously be looking to develop a long term relationship with Darden and we are looking to expand the business relationship. That is the case with any of our business relationships.
In terms of the plans for acres of stevia to be harvested, I can't really comment on that. However, I will alert management that it would be wise to put out an update.
Thank you for your loyalty and please let us know if we can answer any further questions.
Respectfully,
Investor Relations Staff

Thirdly, could you also please specify if the transaction with Darden will the the first of a long series?
Last but not least, could you please specify how many stevia acres are going to be harvested this next fiscal exercise? And regarding hemp, could you please give details regarding the first orders?

As you read, there are lot of information I, as shareholder, would like an answer for. I could ask you lot of other. It is not respectfull to disregard your shareholders (In my case since 2012).
Thanks in advance,
Ludovic Pirard
