TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 14, 2018 / CordovaCann Corp. LVRLF ("CordovaCann" or the "Company"), a leading cannabis-focused consumer products company, is pleased to announce the closing of a non-brokered private placement financing (the "Offering"), pursuant to which the Company issued 2,390,800 common shares at a price of $1.50 USD per share that yielded aggregate gross proceeds of $3,586,196 USD. The proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used for the purchase of the remaining membership interest in the Company's Oregon-based assets and the buildout of an expected Nevada-based facility, as well as general corporate purposes and working capital needs.

CordovaCann expects to contribute an additional $1,050,000 USD to acquire the remaining 72.5% membership interest in the Oregon-based assets, which is currently going through a facility expansion increasing the cultivation area from 3,500 square feet to 39,000 square feet. The facility upgrades, with completion targeted for Q4 2018, stand to advance CordovaCann's assets to support capturing more of Oregon's cannabis market. In addition, the Company also expects to support the buildout of a Nevada-based processing facility, which will include an extraction lab outfitted to support the production of branded cannabis products.

Mr. Taz Turner, CordovaCann's Chairman & CEO noted, "The completion of the most recent financing round will significantly increase the Company's ownership of cultivation and processing assets required to meet the growing demand in key markets for CordovaCann. These investments will further our multi-jurisdictional approach to consolidating U.S. based assets as we continue to build a leading cannabis company."

The common shares sold under the Offering are subject to a four month hold period which, under applicable Canadian securities laws, expires on October 13, 2018, and such further restrictions as may apply under foreign securities laws.

The securities issued in connection with the Offering have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and they may not be offered or sold in the United States absent of registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This press release does not constitute a solicitation or offering to purchase common shares or any other securities of the Company. All references to dollar amounts in this press release are in United States Dollars unless stated otherwise.
