John Arbuthnot, co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Delta 9 Cannabis Inc. (CNW Group/Delta 9 Cannabis Inc.)

Delta 9 begins trading today on OTCQX under the symbol "VRNDF." U.S. investors can find current financial disclosure and Real-Time Level 2 quotes for the company on www.otcmarkets.com.

"Delta 9 joins over 40 Canadian companies that have chosen to upgrade to our OTCQX Best Market this year," said Jason Paltrowitz, Executive Vice President of Corporate Services at OTC Markets Group. "Trading on OTCQX provides companies with increased visibility and more efficient trading for their global investors. We look forward to supporting Delta 9 and their shareholders in the U.S. market."

Delta 9 Chief Executive Officer John Arbuthnot says that trading on the OTCQX comes at an opportune time for the Company, and for US investors.

"Our company is in final preparations for the historic legalization of recreational cannabis across Canada," explained Arbuthnot. "We have been dramatically ramping up our production to prepare for this emerging market, and we are among the few companies in Canada that will have retail outlets open for business on Day One of legalization. Exposure to OTC investors really could not come at a better time."

Full legalization of cannabis begins in Canada on October 17, 2018 as the federal Cannabis Act takes effect.

Delta 9 has prepared for legalization by raising more than $60 million over the past year, and launching an aggressive expansion of its facility that is expected to increase production to 17,500,000 grams of cannabis per year by the end of 2019. The Company is currently building and licensing a second large-scale facility in Calgary, Alberta with partner firm Westleaf Cannabis Inc.

Additionally, the Company is building out a network of retail cannabis outlets, with the first expected to open in Winnipeg, Manitoba on October 17 for the first day of legal sales in Canada.

Delta 9 was sponsored for OTCQX by McMillan LLP, a qualified third-party firm responsible for providing guidance on OTCQX requirements and recommending membership.
