Item 8.01 Other Events

 

On June 4, 2019, Canbiola, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Shi Farms, Inc. (“Shi Farms”). Pursuant to the LOI, Shi Farms and the Company intend to joint-venture to create a “depot model” for hemp processing. According to the LOI, the Company would manage and direct the NY Depot, where fully grown hemp harvested by third party cultivators would be stored once purchased by the NY Depot. The raw material would be aggregated and then shipped to Shi Farms’ facility in Pueblo, CO, where it would be processed by Shi Farms’ other joint-venture partner, Mile High Labs.

 

The Company would be entitled to 70% of “gross profits” (i.e. gross revenues less operational costs but excluding corporate overhead and other expenses not directly related to acquisition and processing of the hemp) generated by the NY Depot, and Shi Farms would be entitled to remaining profits. The Company would be permitted to sell raw hemp in excess of its minimum monthly requirements set with Shi Farms. In addition to managing the NY Depot, the Company would make a one-time cash payment to Shi Farms of $500,000 upon execution of the LOI and issue shares of common stock valued at $500,000, as determined by calculating the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the 10 prior days, within 30 days of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the LOI.

 

Shi Farms would provide technical expertise, availability of seeds and clones, and a cultivation license for the state of New York, which would be applied for once the Company has selected a location for the NY Depot.

 

The LOI is non-binding and its terms are subject to the parties entering binding definitive agreements memorializing the promises of the parties. Should the parties not enter into definitive agreements, the terms of the LOI would not take into effect. The parties expect to enter into the definitive agreements within thirty (30) days from the date of the LOI; provided, that the parties can agree on terms.
