TSX: ACB CSE: CRZ

Aurora Cannabis Inc. (“Aurora”) (ACB.TO) (ACBFF) ( Frankfurt : 21P; WKN: A1C4WM) and CannaRoyalty Corp. (CSE:CRZ) (CNNRF) (“CannaRoyalty”) today announced that the companies have signed a binding Letter of Intent, giving Aurora the exclusive right for 90 days to negotiate a final licensing agreement (the “Final Agreement”).

The Final Agreement concerns the acquisition by Aurora of the exclusive rights for Canada , Europe and Australia to the intellectual property, manufacturing procedures, and the sales and marketing rights related to a portfolio of specialty branded cannabis drug delivery technologies from the award-winning MüV brand, to which CannaRoyalty holds the licensing rights.

MüV is a line of cannabis-infused products, developed by CannaRoyalty investee AltMed Enterprises, focused on advanced alternative cannabinoid delivery mechanisms for the medical and the LOHAS (Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability) segments of the market. The line was successfully launched in the U.S. in 2016.

The MüV products to be covered by the license agreement include the following:

  • MüV Metered Dose Inhaler
  • MüV Transdermal Patch
  • CBD Sports Gel
  • CBD Hydrating Lotion
  • THC Sports Gel
  • THC Hydrating Lotion
  • THC Pain Relief Cream

Characterization tests, meeting FDA standards, were conducted, and the data were subsequently reviewed by Aurora on the MüV Metered Dose Inhaler, which was found to achieve the required criteria, validating that the product meets the Aurora Standard of quality and user experience.

“This agreement shows Aurora’s strategic commitment to the development of advanced alternative delivery mechanisms to broaden the Company’s product offering,” said Terry Booth , CEO. “It also shows how a growing constellation of trusted innovation partners sees Aurora as the winning brand to help commercialize their products and technologies, and we look forward to finalizing our agreement with CannaRoyalty and bringing these exciting new offerings to our growing international customer base.”

Marc Lustig , CEO of CannaRoyalty, added, “This agreement with Aurora represents a significant opportunity to accelerate the growth of AltMed’s award-winning MüV product line on an international scale, leveraging our relationship with one of the world’s most dynamic cannabis companies. The MüV line meets the growing need for specialized products with alternative delivery mechanisms, especially in critical jurisdictions, such as Canada and Germany , where consumers to date have been limited in terms of product choice. Aurora is a great partner to help us penetrate these new markets, and we look forward to completing our final agreement.”
