Maple Leaf Green World Inc (NEO:MGW & OTCQB:MGWFF) announces that the Company has entered into a product acquisition agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cannmart Inc. (“Cannmart”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company must obtain a license to produce and distribute medical cannabis from Health Canada before Cannmart is able to purchase any products from the Company.

Maple Leaf Green World Inc (NEO:MGW & OTCQB:MGWFF) announces that the Company has entered into a product acquisition agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cannmart Inc. (“Cannmart”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company must obtain a license to produce and distribute medical cannabis from Health Canada before Cannmart is able to purchase any products from the Company. The Company previously filed an application with Health Canada for a license to produce and sell cannabis (the “Application”) under the provisions of the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (the “MMPR”). The MMPR were succeeded by the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations, SOR/2016-230 (“ACMPR”) on August 24, 2016, and the ACMPR has since been replaced by the Cannabis Act, SC 2018, c 16, which came into force on October 17, 2018. The Company’s Application pertains to the Company’s intended cultivation facility to be located in Telkwa, British Columbia.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company grants Cannmart the exclusive option (but not the obligation) to supply to Cannmart all of its products, upon the Company’s receipt of a license to produce and sell pursuant to applicable legislation and regulations. For further clarification, Cannmart has the first refusal on all the products produced by the Company and should Cannmart decide not to purchase the offered products from the Company, Maple Leaf shall have full liberty to sell products to third parties.

Cannmart is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Namaste Technologies Inc. Cannmart has received an ACMPR medical cannabis “sales-only” license. Cannmart operates as an online marketplace for medical cannabis sourced from multiple licensed producers, which offers patients a curated selection of medical cannabis strains in one location.

Private Placement Closed

The Company announces that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”), which was conditionally approved by the Aequitas NEO Exchange Inc. (the “NEO Exchange”) on June 12, 2018, and previously announced in its press release dated June 1, 2018. The Company received subscriptions in three separate tranches totalling $3,014,219.40. The Company has issued an aggregate of 5,023,699 units of Maple Leaf (“Units”) at a price of $0.60 per Unit. Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.90.

The Offering is subject to the receipt of final approval of the NEO Exchange. The securities issued under the Offering are subject to a four-month hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

As previously disclosed in Maple Leaf’s press release dated June 1, 2018, the Corporation will pay to certain finders a fee equal to 7% of the proceeds raised from subscribers to the Offering introduced to the Corporation by such finders. Payment of such fees for first 2 tranches has already been made and the finder’s fee payment for the third tranche will be made upon receipt of final approval from NEO Exchange.
