Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 13, 2023) – High Fusion Inc. (CSE: FUZN) (“High Fusion” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that on March 9, 2023, it closed the sale of the Company’s property in Pueblo Colorado (“Property“) with funds received on March 10, 2023 to be applied to the repayment of the 2020 Debentures. The Company also announces settlement of director’s fees.

Colorado Property Sale and Repayment of 2020 Debentures
Under the terms of a purchase agreement for the sale by the Company of the Property, the purchase price of US$1,175,000 was paid in cash less settlement of outstanding property taxes, commissions and transaction costs. The Property is pledged as security against the Company’s 2020 Senior Secured Convertible Debentures (“2020 Debentures“) which have an outstanding balance of $1,124,000 (approximately US$833,000). With the sale of the Pueblo Colorado property, funds have been deposited with the collateral agent to be used for the repayment of the 2020 Debentures in full. After the settlement of the above obligation and repayment of the 2020 Debentures, the remaining balance will be used to satisfy current and pending obligations.

The Property was originally purchased by the Company in 2014 and was leased to Palo Verde LLC, a licenced cannabis business under the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division (“MED”). In March 2021, the Company was approved for the transfer of the MED licence and Palo Verde LLC was purchased by the Company at that time. However due to a lack of funding, the Palo Verde operation had minimal activity during 2022 and both the medical and adult use licenses have not been renewed.

“While it is unfortunate that Palo Verde was not successful, the decision to sell the property and discontinue the Colorado licenses was a necessary part of the Company’s reorganization and refocus on California,” said John Durfy, CEO of High Fusion.

Settlement of Director’s Compensation
As announced on January 20, 2023 the compensation committee and board of directors of the Company have approved $214,000 in deferred compensation to directors of the Company. Subsequently the board of directors approved settlement of this obligation with the transfer of 2,853,333 Neural Therapeutic Inc. shares held by the Company to the following directors as compensation for board services:

  • 1,120,000 NT shares to Adam Szweras;
  • 566,667 NT shares to Brian Presement;
  • 333,333 NT shares to Billy Morrison;
  • 200,000 NT shares to Jason Dyck;
  • 400,000 NT shares to Aaron Johnson; and
  • 233,333 NT shares to Rachel Wright.
