Medcolcanna Organics Inc. (TSX-V: MCCN) (“Medcolcanna” or the “Company”), a medical cannabis company operating in Colombia, is pleased to announce that its shares will begin trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) under the symbol “MCCN” today.

“This listing represents a significant step forward for us and demonstrates our ability to execute on our business plan designed to make Medcolcanna a global leader in the cultivation, production and distribution of quality medical cannabis and cannabis related products,” stated Felipe de la Vega, Medcolcanna’s CEO.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement for the purchase of Innovative CBD Products B.V. (“ICP”), a Netherlands-based company, from Harm Hids, a Dutch citizen and resident (“Seller”). ICP is the owner of various CBD formulations and related intellectual property with respect to the development of cannabis and cannabis by-products as it pertains to Crohn’s disease, insomnia and rectal inflammation.  Closing of the transaction is expected to occur by June 18, 2019.

TRANSACTION OVERVIEW

The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Hids US$900,000, payable in Medcolcanna shares at a deemed price of $0.25 per share, plus a royalty of 10% gross margin of products developed by ICP and sold by Medcolcanna, as more particularly described below. The foregoing is subject to approval by the Exchange.

The Seller will be paid the royalty for 10 years on the following formulations and does not include other current or future formulations:

• Crohn’s formulation
• Insomnia formulation
• Oral Fast Crohn’s Disease formulation
• Rectum Inflammation formulation
• Super Endocannabinoid formulation
• Systemic Cannabidiol formulation

In addition, Mr. Hids has agreed to join Medcolcanna and will be appointed Head of Product Development and European Business Development.  Mr. Hids formed ICP after his son was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease and traditional medicines were ineffective. Through research and experimentation, a protocol was developed that successfully treated his son’s condition allowing him to lead a normal and active life.  Mr. Hids continues to develop cannabis-based treatments for other diseases and conditions.

OPTION GRANT

Medcolcanna also announces that it has granted a total of 7,400,000 stock options to various directors, officers, consultants and employees at an exercise price of $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment and approval in accordance with Exchange policies.
