James E. Wagner Cultivation Corporation Signs Cannabis Concentrate Program Agreement With MediPharm Labs Inc.

James E. Wagner Cultivation (JWC) (TSXV:JWCA) (“JWC” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Cannabis Concentrate Program Agreement dated July 31, 2018 (the “Agreement”) with MediPharm Labs Inc. (“MediPharm”) further to the Company’s press release dated June 18, 2018. Pursuant to the Agreement, the parties have entered into a commercial arrangement whereby JWC will provide MediPharm with dried cannabis to use for the purposes of creating cannabis oil (the “Program”).

Subject to the bulk transfer approval of Health Canada, JWC will ship dried cannabis to MediPharm which MediPharm will use to produce cannabis oil. The parties intend that under the Program, MediPharm may provide cannabis oil to JWC or to other licensed producers of medical cannabis at the direction of JWC. Alternatively, JWC may release the cannabis extract for use by MediPharm. The Program will be established at no capital cost to JWC; however, MediPharm will charge JWC processing fees for the cannabis oil produced, and the revenue earned on sales of cannabis oil by MediPharm will be shared between MediPharm and JWC.

Nathan Woodworth, JWC’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said: “Oil is an important product form in the cannabis industry, and JWC is pleased to be working with a company that offers a unique path to providing high quality oils to our patients.”

Pat McCutcheon, MediPharm’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said: “We’re very excited to provide an oil strategy to such innovative leaders in the cannabis space.”

The Program will be for an initial term of three years.
