Via InvestorWirePac Roots Cannabis Corp. ("PacRoots" or the "Company") (CSE: PACR) (OTCQB: PACRF) is pleased to announce the execution of a Share Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of Lords of Grasstown Holdings Ltd., a company existing under the laws of British Columbia ("Grasstown") pursuant to which the Company will acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of Grasstown (the " Transaction "). Grasstown is a well-established Cannabis Motorcycle lifestyle brand with a tremendous following and acumen that spawned from the vision of Tyler Hazelwood, founder and director of Lords of Gastown.

The closing date for the Transaction is expected to occur on Feb. 19, 2021, pending completion of the Company's due diligence reviews.

In consideration for the share purchase agreement with Grasstown, the total purchase price will be comprised of a cash payment of $50,000, payable within 30 days of the closing date for the Transaction and the issuance of an aggregate of 6,000,000 common shares of the Company within five business days of the closing date for the Transaction. The aggregate cash and share consideration will be distributed pro rata to the shareholders of Grasstown.

PacRoots' President and CEO Patrick Elliott comments , "PacRoots is thrilled to partner with such an incredible brand and story driven by artists with a passionate vision that resonates throughout a massive community. The creators, designers and marketers behind Lords of Grasstown have a truly unique and talented offering that will be invaluable to the PacRoots organization. The Grasstown culture compliments PacRoots' foundation of variety and quality built on the west coast. This platform brings a tremendous following that embraces these attributes which are well positioned to excel in BC and California's west coast marketplaces."

Through the Lords of Grasstown's strategic partnerships and alliances in the motorcycle and legal cannabis communities, the initial launch of Grasstown USA into California has been well accepted and recognized. PacRoots and Grasstown are excited to build on the initial momentum and expand the brand and offerings though our alliances in the region.

Tyler Hazelwood of Grasstown comments, "We have created a unique story driven by our love for motorcycles and cannabis with a community that extends throughout the Americas. We are ecstatic to be working with our new partner, PacRoots, and look forward to expanding and developing our reach with the Lords of Grasstown and Grasstown USA Brands. Our partners and followers in the USA and Canada have been incredibly supportive of our products, story and the organization, as we look to further proliferate the brands and the culture throughout North America."

Medicinal Cannabis and Crohn's Disease:

Tyler's passion for cannabis stems from his 20-year battle with Crohn's disease and accredits cannabis for his ability to defy what western medicine said was possible and avoiding major surgical procedures like colon removal.

Founder and Director of Lords of Gastown and Lords of Grasstown, Tyler Hazelwood comments, "Without Cannabis I would not be able to be a dedicated single father to my daughter, nor would I have been able to build these brands or ride my motorcycle across North America. Cannabis is without a doubt my biggest tool in managing Crohn's symptoms. I feel a sense of obligation to share my experiences and passion in hopes I can help others with IBD."

About Lords of Gastown:

Founded in 2011 and incorporated in 2013, Lords of Gastown is a lifestyle brand spawned in the Pacific Northwest and with a love for Harley-Davidson. Lords filled a gap in the Harley-Davidson street wear and apparel offerings and quickly landed on Brian Barnes of Barnes Harley-Davidson Canada. Barnes Harley-Davidson owns Canada's top three dealerships and was a perfect partner for Lords to grow in the community and open up wholesale partners across North America. Gathering attention and social following across the United States with a good following in California, Lords was invited to the Born Free Motorcycle Show in 2015, Born Free is California's largest and most influential custom motorcycle show and Lords was one of the first Canadian brands to be invited. This event opened doors for partnerships and collaboration with some of America's oldest and strongest motorcycle brands such as: Corbin, BMC, TBR, Simpson, Bell, Heatwave and Espinoza's Leather. Lords of Gastown has established 80-plus wholesale accounts across North America, totalling over 100 worldwide, including Switzerland, Mexico, Australia, Indonesia and Japan. This business has been complimented with a healthy e-commerce business shipping $2 million a year worldwide through www.lordsofgastown.com .

Following the cult like success of Lords of Gastown Motorcycle Lifestyle Brand, comes Lords of Grasstown Cannabis Culture Brand. In 2013, the Grasstown Brand was launched as a passion project by Tyler Hazelwood with the focus on a collection of simple, clean, yet edgy street wear apparel and products including a CBD soap line with a nod to Fight Club. In 2015, partnering with BC Cannabis Genetics Guru JB, Grasstown brought some of Canada's highest testing medical cannabis strains into the fold.  Grasstown has generated substantial local community and social media exposure with placement of its legendary Grasstown Lowrider Ice Cream Truck at Vancouver's 420 Events, meet and greet Granville street smoke out event with Yela Wolf, and rock night at No5 orange with guest host MGK.

Cannabis leaf over map of Australia.

A State-by-State Guide to Cannabis in Australia (Updated 2024)

Australia federally legalised medicinal cannabis in 2016, and Australia's cannabis market has seen major growth since then.

Medical cannabis approvals were up by 120 percent in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Statista forecasts that Australian cannabis revenue will reach AU$3.73 billion in 2024 and grow at an annual rate of 3.22 percent, culminating in market volume worth AU$4.53 billion by 2029.

However, Australia’s cannabis industry is still young. Despite there being a strong case for a regulated market, which was outlined in a July 2024 report by the Penington Institute, recreational use is not legal and medical access remains limited and regulated. Yet, public support for legalisation is growing. YouGov data released in January 2024 showed that over half of Australians polled are in favour of decriminalising cannabis, and half of the respondents between the ages of 18 and 49 support legalising personal use.

In 2023, the Australian Greens, the country’s only seat-holding federal party in favour of legalisation, introduced the Legalising Cannabis Bill 2023, sponsored by the party’s leader Senator David Shoebridge. This was Australia’s first parliamentary effort to legalise cannabis.
