Tilray® Expands Manufacturing Capacity with New Processing License from Health Canada

March 29, 2019 Off By BusinessWire

Newly-acquired Natura Naturals Inc. located in Leamington, Ontario
obtains processing license, allowing it to produce a wide range of
cannabis form factors for the Canadian market

NANAIMO, British Columbia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Natura Naturals Inc. (“Natura”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tilray,
Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY) and High Park Holdings Ltd. (“High Park”), has
received a standard processing license under the Cannabis Act.
The Natura greenhouse facility, which previously held a standard
cultivation license, will now be able to manufacture a wide range of
cannabis form factors from cannabis starting material, including oil,
pre-rolls, and novel formats such as topicals and edibles.

Natura, which will operate under High Park Gardens Inc. (“High Park
Gardens”), was acquired by Tilray in February 2019 to serve the
adult-use and medical cannabis market in Canada alongside Tilray’s
existing operations. The site is a 662,000 square-foot greenhouse
facility with 155,000 square-feet licensed for cultivation. The addition
of a standard processing license means that High Park Gardens will be
able process cannabis raw material cultivated on site – as well as raw
material sourced from other cannabis licensees – into a variety of
value-add product formats. This development provides Tilray’s facilities
additional flexibility in the manufacture of products for the Canadian
cannabis market, and in the development of novel products in preparation
for legalization of additional cannabis products, including tinctures,
concentrates and edibles, in Canada later this year.

High Park Gardens will work closely with Tilray’s existing operations in
British Columbia and Ontario: High Park Farms Ltd., a cultivation and
processing facility featuring 13 acres of greenhouse space on 100 acres
of property in Enniskillen, Ontario; High Park processing facility, a
56,000 square-foot processing and R&D facility in London, Ontario and
Tilray Canada Ltd., a cultivation, research and processing facility
located in Nanaimo, British Columbia. All sites are actively engaged in
the cultivation, manufacture, and sale of cannabis products for the
Canadian cannabis market.

“The acquisition of High Park Gardens in February allowed us to
significantly increase our production footprint,” says Greg Christopher,
EVP Operations, Tilray. “With this additional licensing, we’re pleased
to have expanded Tilray and High Park’s capacity to develop and
manufacture high-quality branded products for the Canadian market.”

High Park has launched and secured the exclusive rights to distribute
world-class adult-use cannabis brands currently available in the
Canadian market including: Canaca™, which proudly builds on its
homegrown heritage with cannabis products crafted by and for Canadian
cannabis enthusiasts; Dubon™, a vibrantly Québécois cannabis
brand which offers master-crafted cannabis strains, exclusively
available in Québéc; Yukon Rove™, a cannabis brand designed to
embody the spirit of Northern Canada, exclusively in the Yukon
territory; Irisa™, a women’s wellness brand designed to integrate
with consumers’ self-care rituals; and Grail™, a premium cannabis
brand that offers connoisseurs a unique variety of products, including
rare strains with exotic cannabinoid and terpene profiles.

High Park looks forward to launching additional brands from its
world-class portfolio, including branded concentrates and edibles –
which are expected to be legalized on or before October 17, 2019 – in
the coming months.
