AREV INTERNATIONAL BRANDS LTD. ANNOUNCES FOCUS AND ROLL OUT IN CALIFORNIA

Arev Brands International Ltd. has entered into a binding letter of intent with LB Anaheim Street LLC and LBC Integrated Growers LLC, two companies organized under the laws of California.

LB Anaheim Street owns a 5,300-square-foot facility, which is located minutes from the Port of Long Beach, and holds the highly coveted Type 7N and shared-use commercial cannabis volatile manufacturing licence used for volatile and non-volatile solvent extraction, infusion processing (including edibles, topicals and beverages), packaging and labelling, and a Type S shared-use kitchen for producing edibles.

LBC Integrated Growers is a 100-acre, AG II-zoned cannabis and hemp cultivation property in Santa Barbara county, California. The Type 7N licence has a tetrahydrocannabinol canopy size limited to 30,000 square feet per 100-acre parcel. Cannabidiol canopy sizes are currently unlimited.

Using BC Bud Depot's advanced genetics, Arev will plant a short-season crop of auto-flowering, high-tetrahydrocannabinol feminized seeds in March of each year. This will yield a flowering crop in a period of eight weeks. A second high-tetrahydrocannabinol crop of elite proprietary genetics will then be planted in May for harvest in September. High-yielding cannabidiol will be harvested from a single annual planting of feminized hemp seeds. The biomass yield will be supplied to the Long Beach location and the entire multicrop yield is to be prepurchased by LB Anaheim Street.

Mike Withrow, chief executive officer, commented: "This agreement is a direct result of the tireless work Silvertree has done on behalf of Arev. It is a perfect fit and meets our mandate to enter into partnerships with licence holders who will continue to operate and join the network of licences in the state of California."

Under the terms of the agreement, as soon as practicable following the parties' satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to closing, the parties will work together in good faith to negotiate and finalize the acquisition agreement on or before June 1, 2019. The obligations of the selling party and the buyer under the transaction documents are conditioned solely upon satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions: (i) on or prior to the date of closing, the buyer shall obtain all necessary governmental, regulatory and court consents, permits, licences, waivers and approvals to operate the businesses; (ii) compliance with preclosing covenants and continuing accuracy of each party's representations and warranties in all material respects; (iii) obtaining all consents and approvals of third parties and the Canadian Securities Exchange; and (iv) on or prior to the date of closing, the buyer shall provide written confirmation of the completion of a satisfactory due diligence investigation, including, but not limited to, confirmation that the selling party owns all right, title and interest in and to the operating assets of the companies. The purchase price will be based on a fair market valuation report prepared by RwE Growth Partners to be determined at a later date, but before the finalization of the acquisition agreement. Such valuation report shall be paid for by the buyer.
