(“Citation”, “CGRO”, or the “Company”) and ACC as announced on Citation’s press release dated August 6, 2019, Citation will be subject to U.S. Federal and State laws regarding cannabis. Strict compliance with State and local laws with respect to cannabis will neither absolve Citation of liability under the United States federal law, nor will it provide a defense to any Federal proceeding, which may be brought against Citation. Any such proceedings brought against Citation may materially adversely affect Citation's operations and financial performance.
