Corporate Name Change

To better reflect the company's long-term vision of exponential growth through key brand acquisitions of revenue generating, all-natural clean beauty, skincare, and cosmetics company's; BBLC, through discussion with its board, has also decided to change its name.

BBLC must advise its shareholders that certain delays out of their control from regulatory bodies, such as the OTC Markets Group or FINRA, may prevent the name from changing on the expected date. However, the company will push for the change to take effect as soon as possible, if they are faced with delays.

The new name was carefully thought out with both Belle & Bonica translating to the word "beautiful" in French and Catalan (the official language of Catalonia) and Luxe, short for luxury. A new website has already been developed, which can be seen here; by visiting, www.bellebonica.com.
