Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. trading on the TSX as TGOD, FSD Pharma Inc.

Aurora Cannabis Inc. today announced that it
has acquired Europe's largest producer, processor and supplier of certified
organic hemp and hemp products, Agropro UAB, as well as hemp processor and
distributor Borela UAB.
Agropro, a hemp seed contracting and
processing company, and its sister company Borela UAB, a processor and
distributor of organic hulled hemp seeds, hemp seed protein, hemp flour and
hemp seed oil, currently has 1,600 hectares (4,000 acres) under contract,
potentially yielding more than 1,000,000 kg of organic hemp with additional
contracts available to expand to more than 3,000 hectares across Lithuania,
Latvia, Estonia, and Poland.
Previously, the companies were focused
exclusively on the production and sale of hemp seed-based products to markets
across Europe, North America and Asia. Each year, very substantial quantities
of CBD containing hemp biomass were left on the field unutilized.
Post-acquisition, Aurora intends to extract,
refine and productize the organic hemp biomass into a wide range of organic
CBD-based wellness products to generate new and significant revenue streams in
this burgeoning market. With increasing recognition of the medical and general
health benefits of CBD-based products, Aurora continues executing on a
CBD-focused strategy that covers the entire value chain, from supply, through
genetics research and clinical trials, to product development and distribution
to various domestic and international markets across five continents.
Aphria Inc. today announced that it has
entered into a wholesale supply agreement with Emblem Cannabis Corp., wholly
owned subsidiary of Emblem Corp. and a licensed producer of medical cannabis
under the ACMPR to supply 175,000 kg of high-quality cannabis over a five-year
period starting May 2019 with a total of 25,000 kg deliverable for the balance
of the first year. Under the terms of the Agreement, Aphria will receive a
non-refundable deposit of $22.8 million, which is comprised of $12.8 million in
cash, and 6,952,169 of common shares of Emblem. The Emblem common shares issued
to Aphria are subject to a contractual lock-up and standstill arrangement, with
five equal releases over the term of the Agreement, subject to certain
customary exceptions.
"Aphria's total annualized production
capabilities are about to reach 255,000kg in early 2019, which means we are not
only well positioned to meet all of our supply commitments across Canada and
anticipated international demand, but also have the capacity to support the
projected demand through our partners," said Gregg Battersby, Vice
President of Commercial Strategy at Aphria. "We are pleased to be able to
support Emblem with a supply of high-quality cannabis grown in our Leamington
greenhouses, while securing healthy revenue and margins for Aphria over the
next five years."
The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. announced the launch of its premium,
certified organic cannabis brand. This preeminent launch coincides with
Canadian Organic Week, the largest annual celebration of organic food, farming
and products across the country. This is a pivotal step for the Company in
becoming the largest, organic cannabis brand in the world.
TGOD cannabis adheres to the highest
production standards for organic cultivation - the product is grown naturally
in Canadian soil, without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides or
fertilizers. According to a 2018 Hill & Knowlton research study, 57% of
Canadian medical cannabis consumers and 43% of recreational cannabis consumers
prefer organic cannabis. Of 116 licensed producers in Canada, TGOD is one of
only two that are certified organic.
TGOD cannabis is never irradiated, resulting
in rich and aromatic terpene profiles that are all natural. The Company's
cannabis oils are derived using a super-critical CO2 extraction process that
uses no harmful solvents or additives.
FSD Pharma Inc. reported that on September
11, 2018 the Company traded an aggregate total of exactly 213,761,823 shares.
FSD traded 143,260,988 Class B subordinate voting shares on the Canadian
Securities Exchange ("CSE"), 1,888,500 on AQC-Lit, 15,369,000 on
AQC-Neo, 241,740 on CXC, 5,309,399 on CX2, 6,473,592 on CXD, 22,500 on Lynx,
24,750,500 on Omega and 16,445,604 on MatchNow. This is the largest total
quantity of share volume traded by a CSE listed issuer by over 15.7% above the
recorded all-time high of 184,718,114 also achieved by FSD on September 10,
2018, as confirmed by the CSE. This record is also 41% over the Company's previous reporting of
achieving an all-time high of 151,183,895 on September 4, 2018.
Namaste Technologies Inc. announced that the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Namaste Bahamas Inc., has signed a
distribution agreement with BlueSky Biologicals Inc.; a private British
Columbia company; whereby Namaste Bahamas will distribute BlueSky's
full-spectrum, hemp-derived cannabidiol ("CBD") products in its UK
and European marketplace. The UK has classified CBD as a food supplement, as
such, Namaste has been focused on building a carefully curated CBD supply chain
for its UK platform. Namaste's launch of CBD sales in the UK and EU are the
first steps of the Company's initiative to leverage its platform, technology
and consumer databases to enter into cannabis consumable sales in the UK and
EU.
In Canada, CBD is regulated under the ACMPR
program, which restricts non-ACMPR vendors from selling it. CBD is a type of
cannabinoid which is present in both cannabis and industrial hemp. Most CBD
products outside of Canada are produced using industrial hemp, which is
naturally high in CBD and low in THC.
The UK's recent classification of CBD opens
the market to Namaste to leverage its site traffic and database to create a new
high-growth revenue stream in its UK marketplace. BlueSky's full spectrum
products have been created to fill the unmet global demand for cannabinoids.
Their products have unique formulations and are based on their proprietary
Golden Harvest™ cannabinoid blend-. Additionally, BlueSky's hemp is organically
grown using sustainable farming practices, which is the foundation for their
cannabinoid products containing no additives, chemicals, or preservatives.
