Company Grants New Venture Exclusive License To Commercialize Its Patented Prana Line Throughout Australia

DENVER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / September 14, 2017 / United Cannabis Corporation (CNAB) (United Cannabis or the “Company”) today announced that it has signed an Agreement with Releaf Global Pty Ltd. (“Releaf”) to form and operate an Australian corporation (“NEWCO”) for the purpose of commercializing the Company’s patented Prana Bio Nutrient Medicinals, cannabis-centric products and technologies in Australia and other territories.

According to the terms of the Agreement, United Cannabis will grant NEWCO an exclusive, royalty-bearing license to produce and distribute its Prana line of products and will contribute its expertise in cultivation, production and wholesale operations. The partnership also provides the opportunity for NEWCO to import United Cannabis’ products from Jamaica until NEWCO is fully operational and able to produce the Company’s products in Australia.

On February 24, 2016, Australia legalized medical marijuana for patients with painful and chronic conditions, and provided for approved companies to import, store and sell cannabis while domestic production ramped up to support patient demand. Australia’s Office of Drug Control in the Federal Department of Health issued the first license under the medicinal cannabis provision earlier this year, on February 17th.

A study conducted by the University of Sydney Business School forecasts initial demand for medicinal cannabis in Australia could exceed AUD$ 100 million annually (approximately US$80 million). The study indicated demand could grow to AUD$300 million (approximately US$240 million) within the decade if cannabis-derived pharmaceuticals become more mainstream.

Earnest Blackmon, United Cannabis’ Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Australia represents a substantial opportunity for United Cannabis. Our Prana line is ideally suited for new markets as it provides patients and caregivers with a guided program to develop therapies targeted to a given patient’s unique concerns.”

Blackmon went on to say, “The resources provided by Releaf will expedite our ability to establish the infrastructure necessary for a full-scale domestic operation. The relationship also allows us to leverage our Jamaican operation, as Australian regulations provide for the importation of approved products from Jamaica. Our ability to serve the patients in Australia as soon as licenses are granted provides us with a distinct competitive advantage.”

Scott Parry, Chief Executive Officer of Releaf Global, added, “I am a strong proponent of the benefits of medicinal cannabis, and United Cannabis’ Prana line is the most comprehensive and effective product I’ve seen. This partnership enables us to introduce tested therapies to the Australian market and gives us the opportunity to help thousands of patients suffering from a wide range of medical conditions. We have already initiated the process to establish this venture and have high expectations for its success.”
