TORONTO, Oct. 1, 2018 /CNW/ - 48North Cannabis Corp. ("48North" or the "Company") (TSXV:NRTH) today announced that it has entered a supply agreement (the "Agreement") with 2599708 Ontario Inc. ("Good & Green"), a socially responsible, organic cannabis company and late-stage ACMPR applicant. Under the terms of the Agreement, signed September 28, 2018, 48North will pay Good & Green $1,500,000 in exchange for 6,000 kilograms of organically sun-grown, dried cannabis, as permitted under the Cannabis Act, for use in extraction, to be delivered on or before December 31, 2019.

This Agreement follows 48North's announcement that it received a supplemental license from Health Canada for the extraction and production of cannabis oil and marks another key milestone towards the Company's commitment to produce second-generation cannabis products focused on the women's health and wellness market. The additional access to 6,000 kilograms of dried cannabis significantly increases 48North's ability to produce low-cost, extracted cannabis products, including the recently announced licensing deal with Mother & Clone's proprietary, rapid-absorption, sublingual nanospray.

"We look forward to collaborating with Good & Green given their extensive experience in the production of organically grown cannabis," said Alison Gordon, Chief Executive Officer at 48North. "This arrangement provides 48North with a meaningful amount of organically sun-grown cannabis, which is essential to developing second-generation products."

"With its acquisition of a 100-acre farm in southwest Ontario, Good & Green is excited to be a first mover in outdoor cannabis cultivation in Canada, as permitted under the Cannabis Act," said Jeannette VanderMarel, President at Good & Green. "Today's announcement is consistent with Good & Green's commitment to partner with best in class companies and we are looking forward to working with the great team at 48North."

Terms of the Agreement
Under the terms of the Agreement, 48North will pay Good & Green $1,500,000 in exchange for 6,000 kilograms of organically sun-grown dried cannabis for use in extraction on or before December 31, 2019. If Good & Green is unable to deliver on this agreement they may satisfy its obligations by providing 48North with 600 kilograms of indoor produced, dried-finished, salable cannabis with a minimum tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) level of 18%.
