FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Form 8-K and other reports filed by Registrant from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, Registrant’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Registrant’s management. When used in the Filings the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to Registrant or Registrant’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of Registrant with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors relating to Registrant’s industry, Registrant’s operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by Registrant. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.

 

Although Registrant believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, Registrant cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, Registrant does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

 

Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On December 2, 2021, AgriForce Growing Systems, Ltd. (the “Company”) announced that it executed a definitive offtake agreement (“Agreement”) with respect to its previously announced Memorandum of Understanding with Humboldt Bliss, Ltd. The Agreement will become effective on a commencement date which shall occur not less than 100 days after written notice to Humboldt Bliss that products from the Company’s facility are available for purchase. The initial quantity for purchase shall be 6500 pounds of dried cannabis flower per year, and Humboldt Bliss will have a right of first refusal to purchase quantities in excess of that amount. The purchase price shall be 90% of the Cannabis Benchmark California Spot Indoor Index Price at the time of purchase. The initial term of the agreement shall be five years with automatic five year renewals unless cancelled pursuant to the Agreement. The Company will pay a fee of 5% of cost of goods sold to an operator of the facility to be chosen by Humboldt Bliss.

 

The Agreement also contains standard commercial reps and warranties, events of default and covenants for a transaction of this nature. David Welch, a Company director, owns a controlling interest in Humboldt Bliss, Ltd. and is thus a related party. Mr. Welch recused himself from final deliberation and approval of the Agreement by the Board.
