HEMPALTA ACQUIRES CONTROLLING INTEREST IN HEMP CARBON STANDARD TO OFFER HEMP CARBON CREDITS TO GLOBAL MARKETS

Further to the press release dated April 15, 2024, Hempalta Corp. has completed its acquisition for the controlling interest of 50.1 per cent of Hemp Carbon Standard Inc. (HCS). The Transaction was completed by way of share purchase agreement among HCS, Climafi Limited ("Climafi"), and the Company (the "SPA").

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, Climafi received: (i) a one-time cash payment of $40,000; and (ii) an aggregate of 12,500,000 common shares of Hempalta ("Shares"), issued at a deemed price of $0.16 per Share. No finders' fees were paid in connection with the Transaction. In connection with the closing of the Transaction the Shares will be issued to Climafi and its shareholders.

The completion of the Transaction marks a significant milestone in HEMPALTA's focus on sustainable business practices and provides the Company with an additional revenue stream to its consumer packaged goods and commercial products divisions.

"The acquisition of a controlling interest in the world's leading carbon platform for industrial hemp farming is a key element to our growth strategy," said Darren Bondar, HEMPALTA's President and CEO. "By promoting industrial hemp cultivation and offering reliable, quantifiable carbon credits on a global basis, we are taking significant steps toward combating climate change and fostering a more sustainable future. The acquisition means we can deepen our collaboration with farmers worldwide, adopt an established and highly scalable platform, and share the financial benefits of the credits to create value for all parties involved."

Industrial hemp possesses the unique capacity to absorb substantial amounts of carbon dioxide ("CO2") during its rapid growth cycle. HCS has been an early pioneer in generating carbon credits derived from the industrial hemp crop's life cycle.

"HCS has been a leader in generating carbon credits derived from industrial hemp. We believe today's announcement and the ability to work even more closely with HEMPALTA will enable us to broaden our platform to markets throughout the world," said Tim de Rosen, CEO of ClimaFi Limited. "These credits offer corporate buyers the opportunity to secure high-quality, high-integrity credits. The credits mean companies can measure and contribute to their decarbonization efforts, and the credits also drive regenerative agricultural practices."

HCS's quantification methodology leverages cutting-edge remote sensing technology, ensuring the precise measurement of CO2 sequestration within the biomass of the industrial hemp crop and associated topsoil at a farm. The approach guarantees transparency, accuracy, and integrity in carbon accounting so corporate buyers can achieve their sustainability goals.

HCS further established its platform in 2023 by monitoring 15 farms, 45 sites, and 1,380 hectares (3,410 acres) in Canada, the United States, Ukraine, and Spain that resulted in sequestering 12,354 tonnes of CO2.

HEMPALTA is inviting companies from the energy industry as well as other industries to secure hemp carbon credits. By doing so, these corporate buyers can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability, support farmers embracing regenerative agricultural practices, and contribute to a greener and more resilient planet.
