Bogota, Colombia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 1, 2023) - Medcolcanna Organics Inc. (CSE: MCCN) ("Medcolcanna," "MCCN" or the "Company"), a leading Colombian and globally integrated cannabis company, announces a bridge loan arrangement (the "Bridge Loan") with a significant shareholder of the Company (the "Lender"). Under the terms of the Bridge Loan, the Lender provided a bridge loan financing amount of USD$500,000 for a nine month term at an annual interest rate of 12% per annum, with interest payments to begin on January 1, 2024 and with an additional USD$500,000 being available for a period of two months (the "Override Amount"), bringing the total available loan amount to USD$1,000,000. The purpose of the Bridge Loan is to cover working capital requirements, including payroll and related business expenses, until the Company can become financially self-sustaining and to cover some of the costs associated with paying for audit related expenses so that the Company can file its outstanding financial statements and get its shares relisted and reposted for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE"). Final details of the Bridge Loan are subject to acceptance of the CSE.

This loan is considered to be a "related party transaction" pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101, but the Company is availing itself of the exemptions from obtaining a formal valuation and obtaining "majority of the minority" approval due to the exemptions available in Sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(f) of said instrument.
