It is anticipated that the proprietary psychedelic compounds will be supplied to Zollaris at an agreed upon cost per gram, and in amounts requested by Zollaris.

The Definitive Agreement is anticipated to incorporate the principal terms set forth in the LOI and, in addition, such other terms and provisions of a more detailed nature as the parties may agree upon and as are customary for transactions of this nature. The consummation of the final Supply Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions, including the satisfaction of each party's respective due diligence, the negotiation and execution of the Definitive Agreement and Zollaris holding a valid controlled substances license from Health Canada permitting the acquisition and possession of psilocybin.

"We are thrilled to enter into this groundbreaking agreement, marking one of the most significant milestones in Core One's history, and a significant step forward in the provision of psychedelics to licensed end users, in Canada. The LOI with Zollaris paves the way for the first ever sale of the Company's psychedelics, produced using our revolutionary and patentable production methods. This partnership represents our commitment to advancing the field of psychedelic medicine and making a positive impact on mental health. We look forward to finalizing the definitive agreement and working together to bring the potential benefits of psilocybin to those in need," stated Joel Shacker, CEO of the Company.
