On September 19, 2018, GSRX Industries Inc. (the “Company”) and So-Cal MM Patients Association, LLC, a California limited liability company, dba The Coughy Shop (the “Seller”), executed a binding letter of intent (the “LOI”), whereby the Company and the Seller have agreed to execute a purchase agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) in which the Company will acquire all of the assets relating to a licensed retail cannabis dispensary currently operating in Desert Hot Springs, California (the “Business”).
The LOI provides that the Company shall purchase from the Seller all assets used in the Business, both tangible and intangible, including licenses and permits covering medical and adult-use cannabis sales, leases, equipment, inventory, and other assets (the “Proposed Transaction”) in exchange for total cash consideration of $1,500,000 (the “Purchase Price”). In consideration of the LOI, on September 24, 2018, the Company deposited into escrow a one-time, refundable security deposit of $100,000 (the “Deposit”), to secure the Company’s exclusivity over the Proposed Transaction during the due diligence period as set forth in the LOI. In the event the Proposed Transaction closes, the Deposit shall be applied to the Purchase Price. However, in the event that the Company elects not to proceed with the Proposed Transaction as a result of its due diligence investigation, the Deposit shall be returned to the Company as soon as reasonably practicable.
The Proposed Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions more fully described in the LOI, including: the Company’s satisfactory due diligence investigation by the Company; the Company’s receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals from the relevant city and/or state authority of the Proposed Transaction, specifically approval by the City of Desert Hot Springs and State Bureau of Cannabis Control to conduct retail cannabis operations at the location in which the Business operations; and the negotiation, execution, and delivery of the Definitive Agreement.
The foregoing description of the LOI does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the completed text of the Agreement, filed as Exhibit 10.01 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
On September 28, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing the execution of the LOI.
