Le Bon Table Brand Foods Shareholders Agree to Stock Swap With SIPP International Industries, Inc.

Le Bon Table Brand Foods shareholders agreed to a proposal in which
SIPP International Industries, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SIPN) will acquire
all remaining outstanding stock that the Las Vegas based company
doesn't already own. The vote took place last week at a special
meeting of Le Bon Table Administrators and stockholders in Las
Vegas, Nevada. Le Bon Table is the manufacturer and holding company
of the "Chef Homer" brand of Le Bon Table Gourmet Dinner Entrees,
"au" Le Cadeau Natural Mountain Spring Water, the ZCAC Controlled
Atmosphere Containers, Newport Creek Hospitality, and Cell Robotics
International.
Le Bon Table, once a publicly traded company, became a victim of
corporate identity fraud in the latter part of 2009. Immediately
thereafter, the company filed criminal complaints in the US
Attorney's office in the Southern District of California against
William Guest, Mary Bonhage, Artemio Rivera, Alberto Colon and
Carolyn Berry. A civil suit was also filed against the individuals
in US District Court in the State of Nevada. On recommendation of
counsel, the law suit was not pursued to allow for more emphasis on
the criminal prosecution.
In December of 2009, Le Bon Table was delisted, leaving the
shareholders with worthless stock. By issuing SIPP shares to the Le
Bon Table shareholders the founders of Le Bon Table in essence, are
giving up controlling interest in the company they created and
developed. "I am totally happy for our shareholders," says Le Bon
Table founder, Chef H. Lee Thomas Langrill. "They have been
tremendously patient throughout this whole ordeal."
In terms of the swap, Le Bon Table shareholders will receive one
share of SIPP for every Le Bon Table share owned. SIPP shares are
traded on OTC (pinks) under the trading symbol "SIPN." Acting on
the recommendation of a special committee of SIPP Administrators
appointed by Chairman, Gregg Pearson, the share exchange was
endorsed. SIPP has mailed a letter with a warrant certificate to Le
Bon Table shareholders detailing instructions of the exchange. SIPP
company officials add that Le Bon Table shareholders rather than
owning a minority interest in a fledgling, delisted company, will
instead own a solid percentage in a global company which currently
owns and manufactures the Cell Robotics "Lasette."
Cell Robotics is a wholly owned subsidiary of SIPP
(www.sippiii.com) which is the manufacturer and marketer of medical
and scientific laser devices. The award winning Lasette is a
miniature laser finger perforator, slightly larger than a cell
phone that allows for the testing of blood glucose levels with
absolute minimal pain, no lingering soreness and less residual
bleeding. Because it completely eliminates the need to use steel
lancets, it also makes obtaining blood samples more easily for
needle phobic's and especially more gentle for children. Recent
manufacturing improvements to the "Lasette" have resulted in a
Personal Lasette which may be used in both home and clinical
environments. The only adaptation required is a change out of a
protective disposable cartridge once used in clinical applications.
The recent improvements have resulted in a Lasette that is more
robust and will withstand the heavy usage requirements in the
clinical setting. SIPP closed today at a share price of $2.75.
