PLANDAI BIOTECHNOLOGY PROVIDES CLARIFICATION ON RECENT UPDATES RELATING TO THE BUSINESS OF PROTEXT PHARMA

Florida, USA -- May 23, 2018 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Protext Pharma, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TXTM) ("Protext" or "the Company"), a biotech company engaged in the development of pharmaceutical botanical medicines that are formulated with highly-bioavailable plant extracts, today provided the following statement from Plandai Biotechnology (PLPL) in regards to clarifying recent updates.

Callum Cottrell-Duffield, Chief Operating Officer of Plandaí Biotechnology, today released the following statement. "Plandaí routinely releases updates on subsidiary operations. We are aware that Plandaí’s press release from April 25 created some confusion with shareholders. In December 2016, Protext Pharma acquired from Plandai the entity Plandai Biotechnology SA (PTY), which has a license to develop Phytofare® products for pharmaceutical applications including diabetes. In March 2017, Protext acquired from Plandaí the entity Cannabis Biosciences, Inc., which is a Delaware company that has the license to develop pharmacologic applications using cannabis and the Phytofare® extraction platform. Since acquiring these business' from Plandai (PLPL), Protext management has applied for a medical cannabis license from the South African government which upon issuance would allow for the legal cultivation, extraction, testing, and development of a medicinal platform for cannabis extracts.”

About Plandai Biotechnology SA
Through its wholly owned subsidiary Plandai Biotechnology SA, the Company has the exclusive worldwide license to develop Phytofare® extracts from live plant materials including Phytofare® catechin complex, a highly bioavailable, and clinically proven antioxidant complex produced from live green tea leaves. Phytofare® can deliver a therapeutic level of catechins, which function as powerful antioxidants, to the system where they remain active for over 24 hours.

About Cannabis Biosciences
The Company is actively pursuing government licensing that will allow it to use its proprietary processing and extraction technology to commence investigations and produce a full-profile cannabis extract, one that contains both CBD and the precursor acid form of THC (THC-A and THC-B) found in live cannabis plant. The Company's investigations will be designed to show that the Cannabis Biosciences extraction process, which will use live leaf and low temperatures to extract the phyto-chemicals, should leave the acid forms of THC intact, resulting in a non-psychoactive extract with full medicinal potential and having the heightened bioavailability of other Phytofare® extracts.
