California Gold Announces Execution of a Second Sale Agreement for Finished Products Produced from Its Wholly-Owned Hemp Biomass

This agreement is in addition to the previous agreement announced on January 15, 2020 related to the sale of the Company's Zero-THC Distillate.

Details of the terms of the Agreement, effective as of January 27, 2020, are as follows:

• The Agreement relates to the sale of CBD Isolate which is defined as a crystalline solid or powder that contains greater than 99.5% cannabidiol (or "CBD") and less than 0.3% total tetrahydrocannabinol (or "THC") by dry weight derived from hemp plants;
• Purchase price has been set at US$3,500 per kilogram of CBD Isolate;
• CGM's Cost of Goods Sold associated with the production of CBD Isolate is approximately US$2,450 per kilogram;
• The term of the Agreement is one year, and the parties expect to complete sales of CBD Isolate recurring on a monthly basis during this term.

A total of up to 1,000 kilograms of CBD Isolate is expected to be transacted upon within 40 days.

California Gold's President and CEO, Mr. Vishal Gupta stated, "The execution of a second sale agreement within a few days of executing the first is a testament to the high quality of CGM's various refined products, and management's commitment to achieving positive cash flow in Q1 2020. CGM's board of directors recognizes that diversification of the Company's revenue stream will be critical to long-term sustainability of positive cash flow in this nascent hemp-CBD sector. With this goal in mind, management continues to explore additional avenues for revenue generation from the Company's hemp business segment."

The Company's Board of Directors continues to investigate the economics of purchasing additional batches of hemp biomass in order to produce and eventually sell additional refined products once the sale of the current inventory of refined products is complete.
