LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Jun 28, 2017) - Freedom Leaf, Inc. (OTCQB: FRLF) has signed a Letter of Intent with the owners of Green Market Europe S. L.

The acquisition includes over 60,000 square feet of operational greenhouse, including over 20,000 square feet with an automated light deprivation system to stimulate flowering year round, plus over 200 acres of outdoor production. Both greenhouse and outdoor production can be increased nearby.

All the facilities are owned free and clear, with no debt.

Clifford J.

Current product development projects include research into rare cannabinoids, CBD drinks, phytocannabinoid oil, hemp seed oil, hemp fabric for footwear and furniture, etc..."

GME has also established collaboration with the Miguel Hernandez University, which has extensive research and development facilities, currently including genetic breeding, LED growing systems and fertilizer testing projects.

The operations are all located in the traditional hemp growing area, Callosa de Segura, Alicante, near the city of Elche, on Spain's Southeastern Mediterranean coast. The moderate climate is ideal for producing multiple crops per year.

GME is the successor to Natural Hemp, S. L. founded by Luis Miguel Santos and Vicente Javaloyes Martinez in 2013. All the NH assets have been transferred to GME.

The GME shareholders will also retain 50% of the net profits as an incentive and will retain their existing management contracts. The acquisition is expected to close in July. Green Market Europe S. L. is currently showing revenue and the acquisition is expected to be accretive in the fourth quarter.

All of the projects and services are compliant with European Union laws and regulations, specifically including Spanish Law and the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of 1961.
