remaining inspections, and receipt of final permits, Tinley intends to consummate the agreement with the facility that it has
agreed to in principle, as previously disclosed, and subject to entering into the definitive agreement the Company would commence
immediate batching and filling. The Company continues to expect the initial batches to take 2-3 weeks to complete upon
receipt of such permits. Initial products include the Tinley Margarita and the Tinley ’27 Coconut Rum.
Updated Hemplify Products
The Company has completed approximately 20% of the planned production run of its updated Hemplify products, and
the Company expects to complete the remaining production this coming week. As previously announced, the Company has launched
a new lemon-lime flavor and an updated version of its berry flavor. The tropical flavor remains unchanged. All three
flavors will have updated packaging which reflects the shift in distribution from head and smoke shops to premium health and
natural grocery stores. It will also display the “Tinley Tonics” brand. This branding strategy is expected to drive
sales of the company’s Tinley ’27 cannabis drinks by creating brand recognition of the Tinley brand in both mainstream, premium
store chains as well as in leading dispensaries.
After a normal course QA hold following production, the Company will deploy its sales and merchandising
personnel to replace existing inventory on shelves in the 100+ stores where Hemplify is currently available. The Company’s
primary distributor has also placed a purchase order for stock in additional stores. Once all 100+ stores are stocked, the
Company expects to resume its in-store demo program as well as its on premises and social media marketing, supported by an updated
e-commerce store.
