This achievement comes on the heels of many other important milestones we've reached: first public LP to report consecutive positive quarterly operating results. First public LP to report consecutive quarters with net profits. First public LP to license its cultivation intellectual property. Diversification with non-cultivation assets. Low cost producer status" said Vic Neufeld, Chief Executive Officer of Aphria Inc.

Aphria's listing on the TSX Venture Exchange played an important role in the publicly recognized growth of the Company and this new listing on the TSX will allow a whole new category of investors to participate in the Aphria story. 'Aphria remains committed to driving shareholder value and we are pleased that this move recognizes that our strategy is paying off for our shareholders' said Mr. Neufeld.

Final approval of the listing is subject to Aphria meeting certain standard and customary conditions required by the TSX, to be finalized on or before the TSX imposed May 3^rd, 2017 deadline. Aphria is confident that it will satisfy all requirements and will issue a statement once the TSX issues a bulletin confirming the date on which trading on the TSX will commence. Upon completion of the final listing requirements, Aphria's common shares will be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange and shares in the Company will commence trading on the TSX.

We have a Good Thing Growing.
