Matica To Resume Trading

November 3rd, 2016 – Toronto, Ontario – Matica Enterprises Inc. (MMJ – CSE) (39N – Frankfurt) (MQPXF – OTC) (“Matica” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that with all the financial disclosures current, the cease trade order issued on August 3rd, 2016 has been lifted. We expect that Company shares will resume trading today.

Management is grateful for our shareholder’s patience and support during this period.  With resumption of trading the Company intends to continue its exploration of the Crow graphite project in Nevada where the Company discovered the first occurrence of flake graphite in the State.  Flake graphite is a major component of lithium-ion batteries with batteries containing roughly ten times the amount of graphite than lithium. 

The Company also intends to pursue opportunities in the medical marijuana field including our claim against THC Dispensaries Canada Inc. (“THCD”). In November of 2015 the Company filed a Notice of Civil Claim in the Vancouver Registry of the Supreme Court of British Columbia naming THCD and other related parties as Defendants in an effort to recoup funds and other damages suffered by Matica as a result of numerous breaches by the Defendants of the October 7th, 2014 Investment Agreement.

To further clarify our Press Release of October 26, 2016, the management cease trade order issued in May of this year was revoked on August 3, 2016 and replaced with a general failure-to-file cease trade order (“FFCTO”).  That FFCTO was revoked yesterday and we expect trading to resume today.
