PHOENIX, Sept. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TILT Holdings Inc. (“TILT" or the “Company”) (NEO:TILT) (OTCQX: TLLTF), a global provider of cannabis business solutions that include inhalation technologies, cultivation, manufacturing, processing, brand development, and retail, has signed a third amendment (the “Amendment”) to its previously announced definitive agreement with Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc. (“IIPR”) to sell and leaseback its White Haven, Pennsylvania facility. The Amendment allows TILT and IIPR to extend the end of the investigational period of the transaction contemplated to a date that is on or before November 1, 2022. The parties are extending the investigational period to accommodate second round testing to satisfy requests from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. Both parties believe that extending the investigational period should provide sufficient time to resolve all outstanding issues and complete the necessary paperwork allowing the transaction to close.

Since its acquisition in January 2019, the Company has operated the White Haven facility, located at 411 Susquehanna Street, and comprised of an approximately 40,000 square-foot building that includes cultivation, processing, and a product manufacturing lab, as Standard Farms LLC. More information is available in the Company’s original press release, issued January 28, 2019.
