VANCOUVER, June 26, 2019 - AsiaBaseMetals Inc. (the "Company") (TSX-V: "ABZ") wishes to provide additional information regarding the cooperation agreement (the "Agreement") between the Company and a city (the "City") within a member country (the "Country") of the European Union ("EU"), as previously announced on June 19, 2019.
The Agreement provides for the City to apply for a licence for growing and selling cannabis for medical purposes ("Medical-Cannabis-Permit") and, if it becomes permitted by law in the Country, a licence for the growing, processing and sale of cannabis for commercial purposes including recreational purposes ("Recreational-Cannabis-Permit"), through a limited liability company to be incorporated by the City ("City-New-Sub-Co-Ltd."). Upon City-New-Sub-Co-Ltd. obtaining a Medical-Cannabis-Permit or a Recreational-Cannabis-Permit, the City has agreed to transfer all or a majority of the shares of City-New-Sub-Co-Ltd. to the Company for a purchase price of up to approximately C$8,000 based on the current exchange rate.
The City has informed the Company that it has commenced the process to incorporate City-New-Sub-Co-Ltd.
The Company has spent approximately C$10,000 to date in regard to the Agreement, excluding legal fees, and has no financial obligations under the Agreement unless and until the Company acquires City-New-Sub-Co-Ltd. as noted above. The Company is using its working capital to evaluate and pursue this and other mining and non-mining opportunities.
There is no defined timeline for obtaining a Medical-Cannabis-Permit or Recreational-Cannabis-Permit and, unlike in Canada, completing the construction of a production facility is not required in order to apply for a Medical-Cannabis-Permit in the Country. The Company has not designed or estimated costs to build a production facility or made a decision to build a production facility.
For more information on the Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, see the Company's news release disseminated on June 19, 2019, a copy of which can be found on the Company's profile on www.sedar.com. Any transaction will be subject to receipt of regulatory approvals, including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
