/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. WIRE SERVICES/

WINNIPEG, March 27, 2018 /CNW/ - DELTA 9 CANNABIS INC. (TSXV: NINE) ("Delta 9" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a non-binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with CanPharma GMBH ("CanPharma") and Global Group Kalapa S.L. ("Kalapa") for the exportation of medical cannabis to Germany.

Manitoba-based Delta 9 is one of Canada's oldest medical cannabis companies, being the fourth company in Canada awarded a License to Produce under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations.

Kalapa is based in Barcelona, Spain and owns a number of subsidiary companies, including a cannabidiol extracts (CBD) production and distribution company and the Kalapa Clinic, the first European consultancy focused on medical co-treatment with cannabinoids. Kalapa is a joint venture partner with CanPharma, a Berlin-based firm that is attempting to acquire a cannabis import license for its operations in Germany.

Under the LOI, Delta 9 has agreed to export a minimum of 40 kilograms of cannabis a month (480 kilos per year) and an additional amount of cannabis extracts to CanPharma for sale to medical cannabis patients in Germany. The agreement would also commit Delta 9 to provide additional cannabis for the German market in such amounts as may be mutually agreed by the parties.

Delta 9 CEO John Arbuthnot says the agreement with Kalapa is part of the Company's continual development of markets for its cannabis-related products. "We've successfully bid for a retail license in Manitoba, we've established ourselves in Alberta, we've acquired national distribution agreements, and now our focus is on establishing the Delta 9 brand abroad, beginning in Europe," Arbuthnot said. "We feel very fortunate to be working with a pioneer in cannabinoid treatment in the European Union, and very much look forward to expanding our business together."

Dr. Henrik Sprengel, CEO of Kalapa, says the Delta 9 partnership reflects the strategic importance that Kalapa assigns the German market. "When medical cannabis was legalized in March 2017 only about 1,000 patients had a special authorization from the German cannabis agency (Bundesopiumstelle)," Sprengel said. "But estimates at the beginning of 2018 show rapid growth, with more than 30,000 cannabis patients existing in Germany today. Especially in Germany we have experienced a sharp increase in the number of requests for consultations with our doctors, so we are very keen to offer the best cannabinoid therapies possible to this growing client base."

The LOI is a first step in establishing a binding formal export agreement with Kalapa and CanPharma. Before signing a formal export agreement, Delta 9 must: (i) acquire a Dealer License from Health Canada in order to legally export cannabis; (ii) acquire a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certification; and (iii) satisfy an onsite audit of production practices by German authorities. In addition, the execution of the formal export agreement is subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence by all parties.
