“With the best interest of our shareholders in mind, we are pleased to have amended the terms of our Desert’s Finest acquisition updating the common stock consideration to a Convertible Note,” said Shay Shnet, CEO & Director of Nabis. “We remain excited about the acquisition of Desert’s Finest as it will notably be our entrant into the state of California, the largest and most dominant cannabis market in the U.S..

Once part of the Nabis portfolio, we will continue to grow this location adding in our BIS products for sale.”Nabis has improved the terms of the acquisition in an amended agreement. The Company now will acquire 100% ownership of Desert’s Finest for a total consideration of USD $5.6 million (CAD $7.5 million) composed of USD $1.9 million in cash and $3.8 million in the principal amount of a Convertible Note (the “Note”).Desert’s Finest has more than 40,000 registered patients and sales exceeded USD $5.7 million in 2018 and 47% gross profit margin. The dispensary is on track to deliver similar results for 2019.

Nabis’ BIS brand products will be added to the dispensary’s product mix in early 2020.The dispensary, which is licensed by the State of California for the sale of cannabis products, includes the potential for license expansion to add production and cultivation activities on the property subject to the future submission of the license.Amended TermsThe Note has a 12-month term at a 6% rate of interest with a forced conversion if, during any 10-Day VWAP period, the volume-weighted average price of a share is at least C$0.70, along with agreed upon market cap of C$35,000,000 and daily trading volume average of C$100,000.
