CSE.THC OTC.THCBF F.TFHC
Vancouver, BC – (December 31, 2018) THC BioMed Intl Ltd. (CSE:THC) (“THC BioMed” or the “Company”) announces that the agreement previously announced on April 24, 2018 for the acquisition of 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of with Burleigh Heads Cannabis Pty Ltd, an Australian licensed importer and wholesaler of medical cannabis, (“BHC”) has terminated without completion. The conditions for closing were not met prior to the Sunset Date in the Agreement. Therefore, following the Sunset Date, THC terminated the agreement.
THC also provides an update on its intent to purchase a farm and greenhouse in the Niagara region in Ontario. The municipality where the farm and greenhouse are located has announced a bylaw restriction that does not allow any cannabis-related land use in the municipality. This ban is expected to continue at least until August of 2019, pending the completion of a review of the municipality’s land use planning policies pertaining to all cannabis-related land uses. Therefore, unless the municipality completes its review, allows cannabis-related use on the farm and greenhouse and the Vendor and THC still wish to proceed with the acquisition, this transaction will not be completed. The Letter of Intent has now expired.
THC provides an update on its subsidiary THC2GO. While THC2GO had entered into a License Agreement for the creation of retail stores in Alberta, Canada, as announced on April 24, 2018, provincial regulations put in place since then have prohibited a Licensed Producer or its subsidiary from having such agreements regarding retail outlets. Therefore THC2GO will not proceed with licensing for retail outlets or similar agreements in Alberta at this time.
