EVERYONE PLEASE READ
Here you go, straight from the filing:
On November 21, 2013, through our subsidiary, Level 5 Beverage Company, Inc. (“Level 5”), we entered into an Agreement (the “Brand Licensing Agreement”) with VITAMINFIZZ, L.P, a California Limited Partnership where the Licensee acquires the exclusive rights in North America (the “Territory”) to use VitaminFIZZ® (the “Brand”) on and in connection with the marketing, distribution and sale of the Brand.
As you can see, level 5 is entering into the transaction. I am unable to find the filing of Minerco's interest in L5 at the moment, but is over 70%
The Licensee and Licensor agree that the profit to be recognized by each party shall be earned and distributed as follows: (i) fifty-one percent (51%) of the net revenue derived from the sale of Products under the Brand shall be earned by and distributed to Licensee and (ii) forty-nine percent (49%) of the net revenue derived from the sale of Products under the Brand shall be earned by and distributed to Licensor as license fees.
There you have it. As stated in the Filing, the "licensee" which is L5 (70+ owned by Minerco) will receive 51% of net revenue of sale of product as part of the agreement. So one must take 70+% multiplied by 51% and gets 35%+ revenue of Vitafizz sale coming straight to Minerco aka MINE
Now technically, you may correct in that MINE does not own vitafizz, but if you don't call 35%+ revenue interest a substantial stake, I believe you are wrong. Execs at redbull, powerbrands, and big red are behind this brand. It will be big and MINE will receive 35%+ of revenue, a very comfortable position to be in.
