VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 8, 2017 / New Age Farm Inc. (CNSX: NF) (OTC PINK: NWGFF) (FSE: ONF) (www.newagefarminc.com) ("New Age Farm" or the "Company") announces it has entered into a letter of intent (the "LOI") with two Washington State entities (the "Purchasers") that will result in the sale of the Oroville facility and all related assets, tenant-grower leases, and fixtures upon the signing of a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement").
Further to the Company's news releases of November 15, 2017 and December 7, 2017, the board of directors and management have accepted an LOI to sell all related assets, property, leases and fixtures to the Purchasers for consideration in cash and shares of approximately US $2.5 million. The parties are now engaged in the due diligence process in preparation for the sale of the Oroville facility. The proceeds from the sale of the Oroville facility will provide the Company with the resources to seek out and take advantage of and capitalize on business opportunities available in Canada and develop an Ecommerce site capable of exploiting related opportunities in Canada and the US.
Following the signing of the Definitive Agreement, the Purchasers will become the sole owners and operators of the Oroville facility. The Company's Chief Executive Officer, Carman Parente, stated "This will allow New Age Farm to shift its focus and to pursue opportunities available in Canada, where the regulatory environment is more stable. The proposed purchase of Colorado based We Are Kured provides us with a turnkey, fully built out ecommerce platform that can be deployed both in Canada and the US, as business opportunities arise, for the sale of hemp and hemp related products, or other products as circumstances permit, allowing management to maximize shareholder value and reduce risk while maintaining business interests in both countries."
