Bevo Agro Inc. files circular with respect to the transaction concerning a reverse takeover involving Bevo Agro and Sun Pharm to create Zenabis Global - along with the distribution of shares of Cubic Farms shares to current Bevo shareholders

VANCOUVER, Nov. 27, 2018 /CNW/ - CubicFarm Systems Corp. ("CubicFarms") is pleased to announce today that Bevo has filed its management information circular and related voting materials (collectively, the "Meeting Materials" under its profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com including the spin out and listing of CubicFarms. The Meeting Materials will be mailed to Bevo shareholders (the "Shareholders") in connection with the annual and special meeting of Shareholders to be held on December 27, 2018 (the "Meeting"). See the Bevo Agro Inc. (Bevo) press release issued today on www.sedar.com for more details about the transaction.

CubicFarms is an agriculture technology and vertical farming company that develops and employs patented technology to provide high-quality, predictable crop yields for farms around the world. CubicFarms' technology, the CubicFarm System (the "System"), is a unique modular growing system that is the product of eight years of research by Jack and Leo Benne, the majority shareholders of Bevo, one of the largest plant propagation businesses in North America.

The System addresses the two most difficult challenges in the vertical farming industry, high electricity and labour costs, using unique undulating path technology. CubicFarms leverages its technology by operating its own facility in Pitt Meadows, British Columbia and creating joint ventures with other farms ("Partner Farms"). In its joint ventures, CubicFarms sells the System and provides industry-leading vertical farming expertise. CubicFarms also sells the System directly to other farms where it does not have a joint venture.

The CubicFarm System is a low-cost solution that enables Partner Farms to grow high value crops, year-round, in close proximity to consumers, even in areas with limited access to water and arable land. The System uses less water, labour and land than traditional farming and alternative technologies. CubicFarms believes that the System grows better crops with higher yields at lower cost, delivering better profit margins and profits for Partner Farms. Through this proprietary technology, CubicFarms will help Partner Farms develop a sustainable local competitive advantage while providing consumers with fresh locally-grown vegetables.

"Cubicfarms is excited to have applied to list on the TSX Venture Exchange," said Dave Dinesen, CEO of CubicFarm Systems Corp. "This is a logical next step as we move to facilitate our rapid growth. Helping all countries grow food in a safe, sustainable, and self-sufficient manner is a worthy and much needed mission".

As previously announced on October 4, 2018, Bevo and Sun Pharm have entered into an arrangement agreement with respect to a reverse take-over of Bevo the distribution of shares of Cubicfarm Systems Corp. ("CubicFarms") to Bevo shareholders by way of a plan of arrangement (collectively, the "Transaction").
