Mojave Jane is a key part of the Coachella Valley's growing cannabis economy and supports distribution throughout California.
Under the terms of the Acquisition, all of Mojave Jane's issued and outstanding member interests were exchanged for 8,974,352 common shares of High Hampton (the "Share Exchange") with the shares being subject to escrow until certain milestone conditions are met, triggering a staggered share release. High Hampton will also commit up to US$1,100,000 to Mojave Jane for expansion of its manufacturing capacity, marketing, sales and working capital.
Christian Scovenna, Interim CEO & Director of High Hampton, commented:
"As the High Hampton family of subsidiaries grows, we are continuously strengthening our position as a strong player in the burgeoning California cannabis market. Adding Mojave Jane to our portfolio means bringing on more market expertise, cannabis products and revenue and will help us grow our share in the adult use market. We will continue to act as a key consolidator in this space adding shareholder value through both internal and external growth."
Gary Latham, a founding partner of Mojave Jane, added:
"The Partners at Mojave Jane have worked together to build a world-class manufacturing facility in Coachella to produce the kind of high quality distillate the market demands. We have succeeded at making that happen, and at navigating the complex California regulatory environment to become a viable part of California's growing cannabis economy.
Now we are ready to scale and produce quality products that meet the needs of medical and adult use markets as they take root in the legal cannabis ecosystem. High Hampton provides us with the means to scale and to more fully integrate our production capacity with High Hampton's other subsidiaries in California. In turn, Mojave Jane will deliver value to High Hampton's shareholders through near term revenue and an increased branding footprint. It's a great time to be a part of this growth with High Hampton and throughout California."
