THC BioMed Begins Shipping Live Cannabis Plants across Canada to ACMPR Registered Patients and Announces Wholesale Genetic
Pricing
VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - January 20, 2017) - THC BioMed Intl Ltd.
("THC" or the "Company") (CSE: THC) (CSE: THC.CN) (CNSX: THC) (OTCQB: THCBF)
(FRANKFURT: TFHC) is pleased to announce that it has begun shipping live cannabis plants to
patients registered under the ACMPR.
On Monday, December 19, 2016, Health Canada granted THC an amendment to its license to allow THC to sell "Starting Materials",
meaning marihuana plants to legally authorized patients under the ACMPR.
We are very excited to begin shipping live Cannabis Plants to registered persons under the ACMPR. We have priced our starting
material ("Clones") at $20 per Clone, plus packaging and shipping. THC currently has 29 strains in stock. Please visit thcbiomed.com for information and ordering.
THC BioMed has structured its pricing to reflect its mandate of providing patients with accessibility to medicinal
cannabis.
We are pleased to announce that we now offer genetics for sale to licensed producers under the ACMPR. With the increase in new
licenses being granted by Health Canada we have initiated a service to provide newly licensed producers with the genetics they
require to start production. THC also intends to participate in a genetic exchange service that would enable producers to
exchange strains with THC Biomed. This would increase our genetic bank while giving producers the ability to increase their
strain supply. THC also offers consulting services to new and aspiring licensed producers to assist them in achieving their
applicable licensing requirements.
We are pleased to report the successful importation of the newly designed Clone Shipper 3.0 containers. THC has now used these
containers to ship live cannabis plants across Canada. We believe that we are one of the first entities in Canada to ship live
cannabis plants.
THC continues to pursue the acquisition of Clone Shipper. Management believes that purchasing Clone Shipper would allow THC to
penetrate the U.S. and international cannabis markets, while remaining in compliance with U.S. and international laws by not
dealing with cannabis where it remains illegal.

THC has begun increasing our production space and will take over two additional property Units adjacent to its current
facility. This will increase THC's footprint to 16,000 square feet.
THC will continue to protect shareholder value by using its existing infrastructure to ensure swift delivery of products to
registered patients. THC will continue to expand our own assets in response to market demands. Management has determined that THC
has sufficient infrastructure in place to cater to current patient demand.
