Emerald Health Therapeutics Terminates Agreement for Sale of Quebec Cannabis Business
Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 4, 2020) – Emerald Health Therapeutics, Inc. (TSXV: EMH) (OTCQX: EMHTF) (“Emerald”) today announced that it has terminated its share purchase agreement dated July 30, 2020 (the “Agreement”) with Quinto Resources Inc. (“Quinto”) in respect of the proposed sale of Emerald’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Verdélite Sciences, Inc. (“Verdélite Sciences”) and Verdélite Property Holdings, Inc. (“Verdélite Property” and, together with Verdélite Sciences, the “Subsidiaries”). The Subsidiaries together own and operate a premium 88,000 square foot craft cannabis production indoor facility in St. Eustache, Québec.
Pursuant to the Agreement, either party is entitled to terminate the Agreement on written notice to the other in the event that closing has not occurred on or before August 31, 2020. To date Quinto has failed to meet the closing conditions, including requirements to obtain stock exchange and shareholder approval. As a result, the Company has terminated the Agreement.
“It was becoming increasingly apparent that Quinto would be unable to complete the proposed transaction, hence it was important for us to obtain clarity and terminate this transaction. Verdelite remains a sophisticated cannabis production operation with a growing business base in Quebec,” said Riaz Bandali, President and CEO. “Moving forward we will consider other options for the Verdelite business, but in the meantime we are pleased to continue to operate this facility and produce quality product for sale under our successful Souvenir brand in Quebec.”
