Home / Press Releases / Nextleaf Solutions Announces Employee Equity Participation Plan (CSE:OILS) (OTCQB:OILFF)

THE PLAN WILL ALLOW EMPLOYEES TO RECEIVE EQUITY COMPENSATION AND ALIGN LONG-TERM INCENTIVES ACROSS THE COMPANY

Nextleaf Solutions Ltd. Canada’s most innovative cannabis extractor, is announcing today the implementation of an Employee Equity participation Plan (the “Plan“) to further align the efforts and compensation of non-executive employees with the Company’s long-term business strategy. The Plan is also timely given the current COVID-19 global pandemic.

The Plan is fully voluntary and permits non-executive employees to receive common shares in the capital of the Company in lieu of a portion of an employee’s cash compensation. If utilized by employees, the Plan will allow the Company to reduce the cash component of employee compensation and further align incentives across the team.

In addition to the Plan, the Company expects to supplement payroll with assistance from Canada’s wage subsidy program, the federal wage support program rolled out in response to COVID-19 that could subsidize up to 75% of the wages of a qualifying business for up to three months. These changes allow Nextleaf to significantly improve cash costs over the next three months, while maintaining its nimble and strong workforce.

“We have taken significant measures in our operational preparation and response to the COVID-19 pandemic,” stated Paul Pedersen, CEO of the Company. “Part of our response has been the consideration of our employees. Paying our employees through this unprecedented time is very important to us. The Plan is an opportunity for us to give our hardworking team a greater opportunity to share in the upside potential of OILS. I am proud of the team’s overall response and motivation to be a part of the long-term opportunity at Nextleaf!”

Under the Plan for the month of March, Nextleaf has issued an aggregate of 48,146 common shares at a price of $0.19 per share.

Nextleaf Solutions trades as OILS on the Canadian Securities Exchange, OILFF on the OTCQB Market in the United States, and L0MA on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
