Company”)
(CSE: SHRM) (FWB: 496) (OTCQB:
SHRMF), a human optimization sciences Company with an
emphasis on ketamine and psychedelic medicine is pleased to
announce that it has executed a term sheet (the “
Term
Sheet”) with California, U.S. based Wellness Clinic of

The Wellness Clinic owns and operates a

involved in research and complementary treatment protocols.
Supported by a breadth of peer reviewed studies, as well as
clinical trials, intravenous ketamine has emerged as a promising
treatment option for many chronic diseases, such as depression,
anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, fibromyalgia, and certain
other pain disorders.
“We are thrilled to begin executing on our North
American expansion strategy by acquiring our first U.S. based,
revenue generating ketamine centre- Wellness Clinic of Orange
County,” said Dr. Roger McIntyre, Chief Executive Officer,
Champignon. “This acquisition represents a major milestone as we
begin to accelerate our vision of establishing significant scale
and a sizable footprint of integrated ketamine centric clinics
committed to providing innovative care and therapeutic options to
improve the quality of life of patients suffering from chronic
disease states that have failed conventional treatments.”
Dr. Michael Bronson of Wellness Clinic of Orange
County stated: "This is an exceptional opportunity to both
collaborate and scale with Dr. McIntyre and the
world-class team at Champignon; with the objective of
remaining at the forefront of innovation in this bourgeoning field.
We are excited for our patients, both current and future, as we
work to provide them with the therapeutic options that they
deserve.”
Pursuant to the Term Sheet, the Company is to
acquire 100% of the Wellness Clinic and all subsidiary companies of
the Wellness Clinic (the “Acquisition”) in
exchange for payments over an 18-month period totalling: (a) USD
$600,000; (b) 1 million common shares of Champignon (the
“Initial Share Issuance”); and, (C) 500,000 common
shares of Champignon payable only if the Wellness Clinic collects
top-line revenue of at least USD $1,500,000, over the 18-month
period, post closing (the “Second Share
Issuance”). The Initial Share Issuance shall be paid upon
closing of the Acquisition, subject to a 12-month escrow, with
500,000 common shares released 6 months following the closing of
the Acquisition and the remaining 500,000 shares released 12-months
following the closing of the Acquisition. Each of the Initial Share
Issuance and the Second Share Issuance are to be issued at a price
per share determined using the average trading price of the common
shares in accordance with the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE)
policies and applicable securities law.
The completion of the Acquisition is subject to
a number of conditions, including, but not limited to, the
execution of a definitive agreement and completion of satisfactory
due diligence. There can be no assurance that the Acquisition will
be completed as proposed, or at all.
