Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 25, 2020) - Bluma Wellness Inc. (TSXV: GSX.H) ("Bluma" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that further to its press release of April 15, 2020, and in connection with the proposed reverse takeover transaction (the "RTO") with CannCure Investments Inc. ("CannCure"), the Company filed articles of continuance (the "Continuance") to continue the Company out of the federal jurisdiction and into the provincial jurisdiction of British Columbia. The Continuance became effective at the close of business on May 22, 2020.

RTO Update

On May 22, 2020, CannCure shareholders held a special meeting where they approved the amalgamation of CannCure with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company to effect the RTO. Approval of CannCure shareholders was a condition to the closing of the RTO.

The Company also announces that CannCure and ECD, Inc., operating as "Northern Emeralds" have mutually terminated the proposed acquisition of Northern Emeralds, after the parties failed to come to an agreement on a definitive purchase agreement for the proposed transaction. If and upon the completion of the RTO, Bluma intends to remain focused on building, scaling, and operating in the State of Florida and will continue to examine and evaluate strategic expansion opportunities.

Further updates on the progress of the RTO will be provided in subsequent news releases of the Company. Closing of the RTO remains subject to a number of conditions including the receipt of all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals including the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange for the listing of the Company's common shares and approval of the Florida Office of Medical Marijuana Use. There can be no assurances that the RTO will be completed as proposed or at all.
