General Cannabis S-1 Registration Statement Declared Effective by SEC

General Cannabis Corp (OTCQB: CANN) announced today that its Form S-1 resale registration statement relating to the sale of up to 9,000,000 shares of the common stock of the company by certain selling securities holders (the “S-1”) has been declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The S-1 will, while effective, permit the selling security holders of General Cannabis to resell shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of warrants, as described in the registration statement, subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

General Cannabis will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common shares by the selling security holders. Upon the cash exercise of the warrants, General Cannabis will receive the exercise price of the warrants.

The offering of the shares of common stock may only be made by means of a prospectus. A registration statement relating to the shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The registration statement may be accessed electronically through the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. A copy of the prospectus related to the offering may also be obtained from General Cannabis by writing to 6565 East Evans Ave, Denver, Colorado 80224 or by calling (303) 759-1300.
