Refined Resin Commences Three Phase Project Development to Become a Premier Bulk Producer of THC Distillate
and High-Value Concentrates for California’s Growing Demand of Extracts
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 13, 2018 -- FinCanna Capital Corp. (“ FinCanna”) (CSE: CALI) (OTCQB: FNNZF) a
royalty company for the US licensed medical cannabis industry, has advanced US $1.25 million, the initial tranche of capital,
to its investee company Refined Resin Technologies Inc. (“Refined Resin”) of Oakland, California.
Refined Resin is retrofitting a legally zoned, large, state-of-the-art medical cannabis extraction laboratory, in Oakland,
California and is targeting to be in operation by late 2018 or early 2019. Refined Resin's principals have extensive experience in
extraction, manufacturing and business operations and intend to be premier producers of bulk quantities of THC
(tetrahydrocannabinol) distillate and various high-value concentrates produced via hydrocarbon-based solvent extraction.
This is the first in a series of tranches of capital that will be advanced to Refined Resin over the next few months as key
milestones are accomplished in accordance with the terms of the Royalty Agreement previously announced. FinCanna with its
recently completed financing of C$6.8 million is currently fully funded to make the additional payments when certain
milestones are met.
Royalty payments to FinCanna from Refined Resin are equal to 11.75% on the first US$160 million of annual revenues payable
in perpetuity subject to certain buy-back options.
The capital will be applied to the implementation of Refined Resin’s three-phase development strategy leading to commercial
launch of its operation. Refined Resin is a cannabinoid research and refinery company that provides B2B and B2C products
and services to licensed dispensaries and distributors in the medical cannabis supply chain.
This initial tranche of capital will be applied to the first phase of Refined Resin’s three-phase development strategy that
includes:
Facility Design Phase : The production facility layout will be finalized, architectural, mechanical and engineering drawings will
be completed, key equipment suppliers identified, equipment design and production specifications will be negotiated and
finalized. In addition, the key pieces of equipment will be ordered. Considerable work has already been completed in this initial
development phase.
Build-Out Phase : Final budgets based on completed architectural, mechanical and engineering drawings will be established,
necessary construction permits will be acquired, specialized contractors will be engaged, and on-site physical construction
will be completed, including the installation of all key production equipment.
Pre-Commercial Production Phase : All key pieces of production equipment will be operationalized, hiring of production staff
will be completed, equipment will be commissioned into service, training and production trial runs will be completed,
equipment will be calibrated and optimized, and sales and marketing efforts will be ramped up leading to full scale commercial
launch.
The company’s intention is to become a premier producer of bulk quantities of THC distillate and various high value
concentrates produced via hydrocarbon-based solvent extraction.
“We are very pleased to initiate funding of Refined Resin’s highly detailed three phase development strategy that will culminate
in full commercialization,” said Andriyko Herchak, President and CEO of FinCanna Capital. “Refined Resin’s principals have
extensive experience in extraction, manufacturing, business operations and marketing that has been evident in their ability to
articulate a thorough development plan identified in this release. We believe they have the capabilities to launch and grow a
highly lucrative business that will deliver substantial value to our shareholders.”
Throughout the entire development process, Refined Resin will be meeting with key suppliers, distributors and potential
customers in support of its commercial launch.
Refined Resin plans to also provide white-labeling services to licensed brands and infused product manufacturers who do not
have direct access to compliant production facilities. Brands and manufacturers who work in conjunction with Refined Resin
will also be able to utilize in house distribution and marketing expertise as part of their value add service offering.
