On October 17, 2016, the Company acquired a 52.6-acre parcel of undeveloped land in Freetown, Massachusetts. The Company has commenced development of the property as the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center (the “MMCC”).

The MMCC has site plan approval for 977,000 square feet of cultivation and processing infrastructure 47 miles south of Boston, MA. The Company has secured a Building Permit for the first phase of the project that consists of a 30,000 square foot cultivation and processing facility.

On August 6, 2018 the Company authorized the general contractor to proceed with the steel fabrication of the first building on the MMCC.

As part of the simultaneous land purchase transaction on October 17, 2016, the Company sold the property to Massachusetts Medical Properties, LLC (“MMP”) and the Company and MMP entered into a lease to which MMP leased the property to the Company for an initial term of fifty years.

Under the terms of the lease, the Company was required to obtain $2.6 million for the construction of the first building on the MMCC. The Company has satisfied the capital requirement provision of the lease by depositing into a construction escrow account approximately $4.4 million for the development of the MMCC.

Additionally, the Company has hired Teak Media + Communication LLC to serve as its public relations consultant. In this capacity, Teak will inform the media and the public concerning the Company’s accomplishments. Teak will coordinate a ground-breaking celebration at MMCC in Freetown, MA on September 18, 2018.
