Biome Grow Inc. (CSE:BIO) (Frankfurt: 6OTA) (OTCQB: BIOIF) (“Biome” or the “Company”) today announced a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU” or the “Agreement”) providing Biome with preferential access to a high quality and low cost supply of Cannabidiol (“CBD”) concentrate from CBD Acres Manufacturer Inc. (“CBD Acres”).

Biome Grow Inc. (CSE:BIO) (Frankfurt: 6OTA) (OTCQB: BIOIF) (“Biome” or the “Company”) today announced a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU” or the “Agreement”) providing Biome with preferential access to a high quality and low cost supply of Cannabidiol (“CBD”) concentrate from CBD Acres Manufacturer Inc. (“CBD Acres”).

The MOU is for a period of five years pursuant to which Biome may acquire up to 20,000 kilograms per year of sun-grown, hemp-based CBD extract from CBD Acres using its unique Nano lipid, solventless extraction process.

CBD Acres is founded by Canadian hemp farming pioneer, Mark Gobuty, who is also the founder of the Peace Naturals Project, Canada’s first Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations licensed cannabis grower.  CBD Acres is currently working with 4,500 acres of hemp farmland in Canada, including 1,000 acres of organic grow, which it expects to produce volumes that are equivalent to a 180 million square foot indoor cannabis production facility under the Canadian Cannabis Act.

“Through this Agreement Biome is demonstrating a cannabis company can offer significant quantities of high-quality product at industry disrupting economics with a made in Canada product.  This can also be accomplished without spending substantial capital to build internal production facilities.  Moreover, Biome will now be in a position to supply both its domestic and international customers with affordable medicinal and therapeutic products based on CBD in the volumes that are required.”

“CBD Acres is thrilled to have the visibility of a long-term partner for its bulk products business entering the market in the second half of 2019, and more importantly a strategic partner focused on commercialization in key medical-CBD markets, allowing CBD Acres to focus on growing and extraction innovation as well as its consumer products business,” said CBD Acres CEO Mark Gobuty.

Biome is considered a “related party” to CBD Acres as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) on the basis that Jacob Capital Management Inc., a significant shareholder in the capital of the Company, is also a significant shareholder in the capital of CBD Acres. However, due to the service-type nature of the arrangement with no commitment or obligation for Biome to utilize the service provided by CBD Acres or to acquire an asset or assets from CBD Acres, the MOU is not considered to be a “related party transaction” as defined under MI 61-101.
