Bogota, Colombia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 25, 2021) - Medcolcanna Organics Inc. (NEO: MCCN) ("Medcolcanna", "MCCN" or the "Company"), a leading Canadian and globally integrated medicinal cannabis company with operations in Colombia, is pleased to announce the execution of a Strategic Alliance Agreement with DNA Genetics, a California based company with over 15 years of experience in bridging the gap to advance genetics in the cannabis industry.

The terms of the agreement will allow Medcolcanna to benefit from the extensive know-how of DNA Genetics in breeding, growing and phenotyping activities, and to use of DNA Genetics' widely recognized proprietary high-quality strains, brands and name for the commercialization of dried flower world-wide.

MCCN will also be producing under license DNA Genetics seeds to export to its own customers, while the agreement opens a new revenue stream by allowing Medcolcanna to produce seeds on behalf of DNA Genetics for their customers. The agreement also provides for consulting and advice in growing, post-harvesting, processing, and, in general, advice with respect to cannabis cultivation.

This new strategic alliance comes to be part of the cooperation between Medcolcanna and IHF (Industrial Hemp Farms) to create a high -quality low -cost production supply chain in Colombia for the world.

MCCN has already signed with IHF one of the largest hemp flower supply contract publicly known to date and is working with proven and reliable counterparties worldwide to secure sales of THC dried flower.

Comment from MCCN CEO Felipe de la Vega:

"We are very happy to announce this agreement. A special thanks to our business partners at IHF, who have been working with us on this strategy, have brought their expertise and network in the US cannabis Industry and worldwide and share our vision of focusing on producing high quality flower (CBD and THC) at low cost.

"This alliance is an important milestone to our access to countries under negotiation, such as Germany, Poland, the UK and Israel, amongst others."

Comment from DNA Genetics President Rezwan Khan:

"We're very excited to announce our partnership with MCCN and expand our footprint in the Colombian market. Through this partnership, we will bring some of DNA's most unique cannabis genetics to Colombia and have the ability to export our most sought-after strains internationally.
