3 Boys Farm Changes its Name to One Plant As SOL Global transitions to a Multi-state Cannabis Operator

TORONTO, Oct. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - SOL Global Investments Corp. ("SOL Global" or the "Company") (CSE: SOL) (OTCPK: SOLCF) (Frankfurt: 9SB) is pleased to announce that 3 Boys Farms, LLC ("3 Boys Farm"), which owns and operates one of the original fourteen (14) medical marijuana treatment center licenses in Florida, will now operate under the business name "One Plant" after receiving the required regulatory approvals. SOL Global embraced the name One Plant for 3 Boys Farm and the Company's proposed dispensaries nationwide as the team firmly believes that just this "one" plant can solve countless problems. Chief Executive Officer Brady Cobb said "this One Plant can provide relief to patients suffering from so many debilitating conditions and illnesses and can help patients avoid dangerously addictive opioids, and this One Plant can also enhance and enrich patient's lives by giving them the freedom to enjoy daily life in a meaningful way." The name change comes as SOL Global accelerates its transition to a cannabis multi-state operator ("MSO").

Additionally, One Plant is proud to announce that its proprietary delivery model, which launched in early July 2019, has shown tremendously positive results. From the launch in early July through October 3, 2019, One Plant, known for its best in class cannabis flower which is organically grown, has seen continued week over week delivery growth of 20% or more, week over week patient onboarding of 20% or more, and over a 300% increase in call volumes and orders from patients in Florida. During the week of October 4-10, 2019¹, One Plant's sales accelerated once it harvested and cured its first harvest after the previously announced operational upgrades were implemented at its Ruskin, Florida greenhouse facility. This harvest, which included One Plant's Ebony & Ivory strain which test results confirmed had a market leading THC content of 27%, resulted in One Plant sales increasing 140% week over week as compared to the previous reporting period. One Plant rose to 7^th (out of 14 MMTC's) in flower sales in Florida, and 10^th in overall sales in Florida, respectively¹. What is more impressive is that One Plant achieved this increased sales volume all via its proprietary home delivery system, and without having a single dispensing location open.

"The fact we outsold our competitors, several of whom have over a dozen brick and mortar locations, is a testament to the power of our home delivery model," said CEO Brady Cobb. "With less capital expenditure, One Plant's efficiently scaled operations cut right to the bottom line. We are excited about opening up new strategically located stores that will serve as both retail dispensaries and prime delivery hubs to boost sales and EBITDA growth."

By the end of October 2019, One Plant is expected to open its first two (2) retail stores in Boynton Beach and Jacksonville Beach, respectively, with four (4) more locations anticipated for 2019.

Having just obtained Good Agricultural Practices-Farm (GAP) and Good Manufacturing Processing (GMP) approvals for its state-of-the-art cannabis cultivation facility in Ruskin, Florida, One Plant is positioned to become one of the United States' leading cannabis farms and distribution centers.
