SDL currently owes NMG an amount equal to $163,513.76 (the “Monies Owed”) under the Management Agreement. In consideration of NMG’s discharge of the Monies Owed, SDL has agreed to pay NMG one-hundred (100%) of all proceeds received from the sale of all or any part of its inventory (the “Inventory”) as of November 1, 2019. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, SDL shall provide monthly updates of the remaining Inventory until the Inventory has been fully exhausted.

To remain compliant, licensees must migrate their current product inventory on to the METRC platform enabling the tracking and reporting of cannabis and cannabis products as they move through the commercial cannabis supply chain.

 

The Company assumed management of the popular Long Beach dispensary ShowGrow this past August and has swiftly finalized the move to CCTT METRC.
