"The fact that Cookies – one of the top brands in California – has chosen Rubicon Organics to license its highly coveted cannabis strains is a testament to the strong commercial appeal of Rubicon's unique cultivation methods," said Jesse McConnell, Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "Our proprietary cultivation methodologies will enable the fullest expression of Cookies' cannabis genetics and we are looking forward to working alongside the Cookies team to spread their iconic brand across Washington State."

"Washington has always been a very educated market and has bonded with the Bay Area and Cookies Genetics since the medical scene," said Berner, founder and CEO of Cookies. "This makes our breeding projects in Washington extremely true to our brand. Rubicon is providing the perfect platform to roll out Cookies properly in Washington. We are beyond excited and eager to get going."

Rubicon Organics expects that this partnership, in conjunction with the anticipated launch of the Company's 1964 Supply Co. TM brands in Q4 2019, will build a highly coveted brand portfolio in Washington that will contribute to maximizing revenue for the state-licensed tenant as well as providing packaging revenue for Rubicon Organics.

Additionally, this partnership will assist Rubicon Organics in bringing its own brands to market as they sit alongside the highly recognizable and coveted Cookies brand in Washington. The Cookies library of cannabis strains are expected to be available for sale commencing in Q4 2019.

ABOUT COOKIES

Cookies was founded in 2012 by Berner, the prolific Bay Area rapper and entrepreneur, and his partner Jigga, Bay Area cultivator and breeder. The combination of new genetics, the internet, music and being one of the first companies to establish an identity and streetwear company based on the brand represents a priceless time that may never come back. With the music industry backing Cookies and social media and Youtube vlogs documenting the growth of Cookies and breeding projects, the community was able to take that ride with the brand which build a grassroots cult following.

Today, Cookies is one of the most respected and top-selling cannabis brands in California and is globally recognized, amassing a stable of over 50 cannabis varieties and product lines including indoor, outdoor and sungrown flower, pre-rolls, gel caps and vape carts. With two flagship Cookies stores in Los Angeles on Melrose and Maywood and a third location in Redding, Cookies' overall vertical integration and seed to sale business allows for complete quality control at every step from cultivation and production to retail experience.

In 2015, the brand's hip-hop credibility effortlessly expanded Cookies into streetwear and today offers a range of products for both men and women in the apparel and accessories categories as well as a curated selection of smoking supplies.
