Terra Tech Corp. Executes Agreement To Acquire Unrivaled

The west coast powerhouse gets even bigger

Terra Tech Corp. (OTCQX:TRTC) (“Terra Tech” or the “Company”) today announced that the Company has executed an agreement to acquire UMBRLA, Inc., which has recently rebranded as Unrivaled (“Unrivaled”), subject to certain closing conditions as set forth in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed this morning, in an all-stock transaction.

Unrivaled is a swiftly growing and well-run diversified cannabis company comprised of several highly recognized cannabis brands complemented by distribution, manufacturing and dispensary operations. Unrivaled brands include Korova, a top ten cannabis brand in California, among a strong portfolio across categories and price points. Unrivaled operates manufacturing and distribution operations in both California and Oregon and dispensaries in California.

Unrivaled owns and manages one of the largest distribution networks on the west coast with over 700 in-network dispensaries throughout Oregon and California, into which Unrivaled sells both its own brands and third-party brands across all major categories: flower products, vape cartridges, extracts, and edibles.

Through licensing agreements, select Unrivaled brands are also sold in over 200 dispensaries throughout Arizona and Oklahoma. Following the merger, Terra Tech expects to continue its licensing expansion of the Korova brand and integrate the Unrivaled portfolio into its existing operations in California and Nevada.

Terra Tech’s CEO, Frank Knuettel II, stated, “We are very pleased to have entered into this mutually beneficial transaction which leads to immediate scale, driven by strong brands and revenue growth. Unrivaled has grown markedly since inception, led by a strong management team, including Dallas Imbimbo, co-founder of KushCo Holdings, Inc. (OTCQX: KSHB) and Unrivaled. We intend to integrate Unrivaled’s management team into Terra Tech, whose robust leadership is capable of executing on high revenue growth and additional accretive acquisitions.”

Knuettel continued, “Following the restructuring of our balance sheet and bringing in new capital in January, this is the first of our anticipated strategic acquisitions building on the foundation formed by my predecessors. Our short-term goal is to become the premier West Coast and Southwest operator of cannabis assets with a focus on brands and dispensaries. Based on our growth trajectories and new operations coming online during 2021, we believe that the combined companies will generate revenues in excess of $70 million in 2021.”

Said Unrivaled CEO Dallas Imbimbo, “Over the last two years Unrivaled has brought together some of the most well-respected brands in cannabis with Korova, LTRMN, Sticks, Cabana and The Spot. Terra Tech’s retail and cultivation assets perfectly complement Unrivaled’s modern brand portfolio, sophisticated R&D and state-of-the-art tech stack. Our mission continues to become the leading-edge global cannabis operator, and this merger will accelerate that path significantly. We would like to give a huge thank you to the Unrivaled team for their dedication and relentless pursuit of our goals.”
