Anglin continued, "Because Swiss Lux is only interested in collaborating with premium brands, this agreement provides them with the opportunity to utilize our supply chains and expertise as they develop and commercialize high-quality cannabis products for the recreational, cosmeceutical, edible, beverage, and medical markets."

- applicable regulatory authorities rejecting or canceling the Agreement, determining that the Agreement is illegal or impermissible, or determining that the Agreement would require the Company to be registered as an owner of the Licensee;
- applicable federal authorities requiring the parties to cease performing under the Agreement or threatening enforcement against the parties in relation to the Agreement or to either party's violation of federal law regarding cannabis;
- upon 120 days' written notice by either party to the other party; or
