VANCOUVER, BC , April 14, 2021 – PlantX Life Inc. (CSE: VEGA ) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) (” PlantX ” or the ” Company “) is pleased to announce the addition of perishable, refrigerated and frozen goods to its expanding repertoire of grocery items.

The Company will be enhancing its product offerings by adding high-quality fresh and frozen products by various plant-based brands including Beyond Meat, Impossible Foods, Miyokos, Follow Your Heart, Gardein, Tofurkey and Alpha Foods. This move will allow PlantX to significantly increase its product assortment at its one-stop-shop for everything plant-based e-commerce platform. The new items are now available to order in the ‘ Frozen ‘ and ‘ Refrigerated’ sections of the Company’s United States’ e-commerce platform . Frozen and refrigerated products will be available for shipping to Canadian customers later this year.

To assist in bypassing these challenges, PlantX has partnered with a logistics provider that will deliver the new products from manufacturers to consumers’ homes in an efficient manner.

“Launching the new refrigerated and frozen product line is a natural and thrilling next step for PlantX,” said Julia Frank , PlantX CEO. “By adding such items, we are building on our efforts to create an online presence where customers can access a versatile range of high-quality products that meet their everyday needs.”

PlantX $VEGA $PLTXF Announces Sustainability Initiatives $VERY.ca $MEAT.ca $EATS.ca $VEGN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:40 AM on Monday, March 29th, 2021
  • Announced its new green packaging and sustainability initiatives to help reduce the Company’s carbon footprint.
  • As part of the Company’s vision to create positive change and promote both planetary and human health, PlantX has already started improving its logistic network by using 100% eco-friendly packaging and marketing resources for its meal delivery services.
  • With PlantX’s green packaging, customers will be able to recycle or reuse all of the PlantX entrée containers.

VANCOUVER, BC , March 29, 2021 – PlantX Life Inc. (CSE: VEGA ) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) (” PlantX ” or the ” Company “) is pleased to announce its new green packaging and sustainability initiatives to help reduce the Company’s carbon footprint.

“With the evolving anthropogenic threats to the climate, today’s world has seen increasing environmental awareness and interest in planetary protection,” said PlantX founder, Sean Dollinger . “People are harnessing a passion for managing our planet’s resources and this momentum is visibly manifesting in various industries. Sustainable packaging, also known as green packaging, is becoming an essential purchasing consideration for the modern consumer. By choosing to use green packaging, PlantX hopes to mitigate the polluting effects of packaging waste that ends up in landfills from its products. The increasing demand for green packaging and sustainability initiatives is becoming a crucial incentive for many high-impact businesses and manufacturers to integrate eco-friendly and ethical considerations into their operational models”.

As part of the Company’s vision to create positive change and promote both planetary and human health, PlantX has already started improving its logistic network by using 100% eco-friendly packaging and marketing resources for its meal delivery services. With PlantX’s green packaging, customers will be able to recycle or reuse all of the PlantX entrée containers. These containers are also microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator and freezer friendly. Additionally, the fiber trays used for PlantX delivered wraps are certified compostable and made from annually renewable sugarcane bagasse and can be reused at temperatures of between 14°F to 400 °F (-10°C to 204°C). The sustainability information about PlantX packaging materials will be printed on 100% recycled paper flyers.

The Company is pleased to announce a new partnership with Quebec -based Colder Fresher Longer in connection with PlantX’s sustainability initiatives. PlantX will use Colder Fresher Longer eco-friendly packaging to keep products at desired temperatures throughout the shipping process. The use of Colder Fresh Longer box liners and inserts will allow PlantX to ship both temperature sensitive and non-temperature sensitive items in the same packaging while reducing the amount of boxes needed in shipping PlantX products.

These new packaging standards are just the start of PlantX’s plans to adopt broader sustainability practices. The Company will also be expanding its environmental efforts by charging an eco-fee of $4.95 for certain online purchases to support recycling and disposal programs aimed at keeping certain end-of-line products out of landfills.

As part of its net-zero practices, PlantX will also start participating in carbon offsetting initiatives, such as forest protection or renewable energy projects that offer “carbon credits”. One carbon credit can be the equivalent of one tonne of carbon that has not been emitted into the atmosphere. The Company intends to work with sustainability consultants to measure the emissions reduced through offsetting activities in order to achieve recommended targets. Carbon offsetting can be an economically efficient way to enhance PlantX’s sustainability efforts.

“We are on a mission to become global leaders in promoting health and well-being for both people and the environment,” said PlantX CEO Julia Frank . “We’re including sustainability practices in a variety of ways, from using eco-friendly plantable business cards made with seed paper to making our packaging more sustainable. We’re committed to joining in the collective efforts to reduce plastic waste and help our plant-based community improve planetary health meaningfully and effortlessly.”

  • The new ” PlantXReset ” meals will be available for delivery and distribution throughout Canada , and later on, in the United States through the Company’s e-commerce platforms.

VANCOUVER, BC , March 24, 2021 PlantX Life Inc. (CSE: VEGA ) (OTCQB: PLTXF) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (” PlantX ” or the ” Company “) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a collaboration with chef Anne Thornton to create exclusive meals inspired by Chef Thornton’s famous Plant Reset program, a five-day, plant-powered, sustainable-living meal initiative. The new ” PlantXReset ” meals will be available for delivery and distribution throughout Canada , and later on, in the United States through the Company’s e-commerce platforms.

Chef Thornton is a classically trained chef, culinary sustainability expert, writer, TV personality and former host of Food Network’s “Dessert First.” Best known for her signature nutritious and versatile food, Chef Thornton works with top nutritionists and doctors to create holistically healing recipes that meet her clients’ varied well-being needs. She has 15 years of successful culinary experience across the United States . She was an executive chef at Little Pine in Los Angeles , the organic vegan restaurant named Restaurant of the Year by VegNews in 2016. As an executive chef at NeueHouse, a private workspace and cultural home for creators, innovators and thought leaders in L.A., she spearheaded a sustainability culinary initiative by providing creative menus using sustainable, local, plant-based ingredients.

Chef Thornton’s passion for health and wellness and her love for the planet shine through her Plant Reset program, a high-impact initiative based on designing and offering five-day programs of organic, non-processed and locally sourced meals aimed at reducing carbon footprint, boosting the immune system and improving energy levels. The Plant Reset program includes nutrient-dense, superfood-laden, adaptogen-laced, gluten-free, refined-sugar-free, dairy-free, soy-free, corn-free, low-fat meals tailored to everyday needs – from breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas to snacks, broths, juices and elixirs.

“Reset recipes are designed to increase focus, improve gut health, clear brain fog and alleviate a myriad of other issues while enabling enjoyment of delicious food and drinks”, said Chef Thornton. “Moreover, beyond saving time, energy and calories by outsourcing their meal planning, shopping and cooking, Reset customers can also save 5,610 gallons of water, 204 pounds of grain, 153 square feet of forest, 102 pounds of CO 2 , and five animal lives by eating the 100% vegan and organic Reset meals for five days.”

Each Reset subscription offered by Chef Thornton currently includes 15 healing meals, snacks and juices, as well as a donation of 15 organic plant-based meals to the L.A. homeless community. The Reset program has seen exceptional success in L.A., and the demand for it has exceeded Chef Thornton’s current capacity to serve her growing pool of celebrity clients.

“I am so excited about this collaboration with PlantX,” added Chef Thornton. “I have so much respect for the team and their mission to bring delicious plant-based food to everyone, easily and efficiently. I am thrilled that people all over North America will have the opportunity to take part in this delicious, enlivening, healing and energizing protocol.”

Through the new partnership with PlantX, Chef Thornton will share her passions and culinary talents by developing the new PlantXReset program. As part of this program, she will include her own unique and delicious Reset recipes and apply her creative and sustainable Reset design to the meals already available on the PlantX platform through UpMeals, the Company’s meal delivery partner.

“Anne is a legend in the culinary industry, and we are so excited to start our collaboration with her,” said Sean Dollinger , PlantX founder. “Her incredible expertise and dedication to human and planetary health are fully aligned with PlantX’s values, and together we hope to help our plant-based community thrive and reach new levels of health and wellness”.

Pursuant to an agency agreement between the Company and Mackie Research Capital Corporation (the ” Agent “) entered into on March 11, 2021 , the Agent acted as the lead agent and sole bookrunner for the Offering. The Company granted the Agent an option to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Units, exercisable on or before April 21, 2021 at a price of $1.05 per Unit (the ” Over-Allotment Option “), to cover over-allotments. The Over-Allotment Option is exercisable to acquire additional Units, Common Shares or Warrants (or any combination thereof) at the discretion of the Agent.

Each Unit consisted of one (1) common share of the Company (a ” Unit Share “, each such common share in the authorized share structure of the Company, a ” Common Share “) and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (a ” Warrant “). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional Common Share (a ” Warrant Share “) at a price of $1.25 per Warrant Share up to March 22, 2023 , provided that if, at any time, the daily volume weighted average trading price (or closing price on trading days when there are no trades) of the Common Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the ” CSE “) or, if the Common Shares are not listed on the CSE, then on such other recognized Canadian stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed, equals or exceeds $2.00 per Common Share over any 10 consecutive trading days, the Company shall be entitled, at its option, within 10 business days following such 10-day period, to accelerate the exercise period of the Warrants through the issuance of a press release (the ” Acceleration Notice “) specifying the new expiry date and, in such case, the Warrants will expire on the 30 th day following the issuance of the Acceleration Notice. From and after the new expiry date specified in such Acceleration Notice, no Warrants may be issued or exercised, and all unexercised Warrants shall be void and of no effect following the new expiry date.

The Company paid the Agent a cash commission of approximately $970,000 and issued to the Agent 923,943 compensation options (the ” Compensation Options “) exercisable at any time up to March 22, 2023 to purchase Common Shares (each, a ” Compensation Option Share “) at a price of $1.25 per Compensation Option Share.

The Units were sold through the Agent in the provinces of British Columbia , Alberta and Ontario , and in the United States pursuant to available exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the ” U.S. Securities Act “) and all applicable U.S. state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons. The securities described herein have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available. “United States” and “U.S. person” are as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund expansion, to continue to develop a user app, to evaluate and pursue potential strategic acquisitions, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

An insider of the Company participated in the Offering and purchased an aggregate of 23,800 Units. Participation of such insider in the Offering constituted a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (” MI 61-101 “), but was exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the securities issued to the insiders nor the consideration paid by the insiders exceeded 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. None of the Company’s directors expressed any contrary views or disagreements with respect to the foregoing. The Company did not file a material change report 21 days prior to the closing of the Offering as the details of the participation of the insider of the Company had not been confirmed at that time.
