VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 1, 2021 /CNW/ - Havn Life Sciences Inc. (CSE: HAVN) (OTC: HAVLF) (FSE: 5NP) (the "Company" or "Havn Life") provides an update on its operations.

On August 3, 2021, the Company announced it had harvested its first crop of psilocybin-containing mushrooms (the "Products") from its operations in Jamaica, and that the Company would be exporting the harvested psilocybin to Canada for safety and quality control testing by its lab partner, Delic Labs. The Company notes that the anticipated importation of the Products to Canada is intended to occur during Q4 2021 or Q1 2022, and that such importation requires a Health Canada license which the Company does not currently possess. The Company has a pending application for such license but there can be no assurance that it will be received by Q4 2021, or at all.

On September 17, 2021, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding with Mycrodose Therapeutics, the holder of a Controlled Substance Registration Certificate for psilocybin from the United States Department of Justice – Drug Enforcement Administration, pursuant to which the Company and Mycrodose Therapeutics aim to negotiate a definitive arrangement to permit the importation of the Company's Products into the United States of America. The Company notes that it is in negotiations for similar definitive arrangements for the importation of Products into Canada, though to date no such arrangements have been finalized.

The Company notes that aside from Canada and the United States, it is also focused on the United Kingdom as a potential market for its Products. However, as with Canada and the United States, importation of the Products into the United Kingdom is highly-regulated and requires licenses and permits which the Company does not currently possess. At this time, the Company is not actively considering any other export market.
