TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ORAGIN Foods Inc. (“ORAGIN” or the “Company”) (TSXV: OG) (OTC: OGGFF) (FRA: 9CW) announces that the Company’s part-time Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) has resigned, and the Company has allocated resources to manage the transitional period until a replacement CFO is hired.

As announced in the news release on November 23, 2022, the Company’s retail business and CPG Division continue to operate, as the Company has sufficient cash on hand to continue its operations.

As disclosed on November 23, 2022 in connection with the resignation of the Company’s independent directors, the Company’s Directors & Officers Indemnity Insurance (the "D&O Insurance”), which was scheduled for renewal, could only be renewed with certain limitations related to and as a result of the Notices and related circumstances, and the Company believes that the CFO has tendered his resignation as a result, consistent with the resignations of the independent directors.

Matt Lurie, President and CEO, remains as the Company’s sole director and officer.

“As the Company navigates through this transitional period, we remain committed and excited about the future, and the tremendous efforts and advancements being made by our operating teams. We are focused on repopulating the positions and roles within the company to meet the requirements of the Exchange and the vision of the Company moving forward,” said President and CEO Matt Lurie.

Status of Listing on the Exchange and Next Steps

Further to the Company’s news release dated November 22, 2022, the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) has issued a bulletin announcing that trading in the shares of the Company will be suspended as a result of the Company having less than three directors, effective at the opening, Friday, November 25, 2022.
