TORONTOJuly 9, 2018 /CNW/ – Canntab Therapeutics Limited (CSE:PILL) (“Canntab“), a leader in the rapidly growing cannabis pill market, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI“) with FSD Pharma Inc. (CSE: HUGE) (“FSD Pharma“), which, through its wholly-owned subsidiary FV Pharma Inc., is a licensed producer pursuant to the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations. Under the terms of the LOI, FSD Pharma will assist Canntab to obtain a license to process and sell cannabis products pursuant to the Cannabis Act (the “License“), and will provide Canntab with space at its 620,000 square foot facility (the “FSD Facility“), which is located just one hour east of Toronto in Cobourg, Ontario (the “Transaction“).

FSD Pharma will provide Canntab with up to 10,000 square feet of space at the FSD Facility (the “Canntab Premises“). Canntab will build and install, at its expense, its own manufacturing facility within the larger FSD Facility that will operate in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices, at which it will produce a suite of novel cannabis oral dose delivery platforms, including gel capsules and tablets, and other types of cannabis-based products, including sleep aids and pain relievers (the “Canntab Products“). FSD Pharma and Canntab see tremendous opportunity in offering pharmaceutical quality cannabis based tablets, as many doctors are averse to prescribing smoked cannabis as a solution to patients’ health concerns. The Canntab Premises are intended to be used to supply Canadian and International markets such as Australia and Germany, which legally allow cannabis. FSD Pharma will work with Canntab to prepare the necessary items to submit an application from Canntab to Health Canada to obtain the License, which will be attached to the Canntab Premises. In particular, FSD Pharma will assist with the following aspects of the application:

a)

drafting, or coordinating the drafting of, all application materials;

b)

sourcing all necessary third-party consultants required to prepare the application; and

c)

communicating with Health Canada throughout the application process. 

 

In consideration of FSD Pharma’s services, Canntab will grant FSD Pharma certain royalty and profit sharing rights in connection with the sale of the Canntab Products. Canntab will provide FSD Pharma with 50% of the profits that Canntab receives on any retail sales of Canntab Products through channels that are established by FSD Pharma and FSD Pharma will be entitled to retain 50% of the profits on FSD Pharma’s sales of the Canntab Products. In addition, Canntab will pay FSD Pharma a royalty of 3.5% of Canntab’s sale price for all Canntab Products that are manufactured and sold from the Canntab Premises. Canntab may also purchase the oil that it requires for the Canntab Products from FSD Pharma.

The terms of the LOI will be superseded by a definitive agreement, which Canntab and FSD Pharma intend to execute by July 15, 2018.

Mr. Jeffrey Renwick, Chief Executive Officer of Canntab, stated, “We are thrilled to announce our partnership with FSD Pharma, which not only provides us with space at their world class facility in Cobourg, but also gives us access to their deep knowledge base, which we believe will help us move our application through the Health Canada process as quickly and smoothly as possible. With this partnership in place, we believe that Canntab is well-position to capitalize on the impending legalization of cannabis on October 17, 2018“.

Thomas Fairfull, Chief Executive Officer of FSD Pharma, added, “Pills and tablets are the norm for most patients’ method of consuming medicine and nutraceuticals. It’s still difficult for doctors and other alternative health practitioners to prescribe smoking as a form of medicine. Jeff and his team have been in the pharma manufacturing industry for decades and have been doing research in cannabis for years collecting a wealth of experience and knowledge that even most big pharma companies don’t have.  This agreement with Canntab adds to the growing FSD Pharma suite of cannabis based products to be manufactured at our large facility. This could be HUGE.”
