ICC International Cannabis Corporation ("ICC" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: ICC) has received approval from the Uruguayan regulatory authorities to increase the Company's land package by an additional 494 acres to produce cannabinoid extracts and by-products for medicinal use. Concurrently with these approvals, the Company entered into a land lease in respect of the acreage.

Set out below is a summary of the Company's current licensed acreage and estimated production capacity by product type as compared with its licensed acreage and estimated production capacity at the time of its listing on the TSX Venture Exchange:

In addition to the licensed acreage, the Company is continuing construction of the first CBD extraction laboratory in South America using the supercritical fluid CO2 extraction technique with state-of-the-art equipment from Europe. The laboratory will be built in Uruguay's "science free trade zone". The extraction laboratory will be situated in an area over 16,146 sq. ft., with construction set for completion in April, 2018.
