Aurora Cannabis Receives First Cannabis
Import Permit from Polish Ministry of Health
First Licensed Producer
Approved to Supply Medical Cannabis in Poland
EDMONTON, Oct. 25, 2018 /CNW/ - Aurora Cannabis
Inc. ("Aurora" or the "Company") (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB) (Frankfurt: 21P; WKN: A1C4WM) announced today that
Polish Ministry of Health granted the Company approval for its first shipment of medical cannabis to Poland. In the coming days,
Aurora Deutschland GmbH will ship the products to a pain treatment center and a hospital in Warsaw. This is an important milestone
for medical patients in Poland, as it is believed to be the first time a non-government run business has been granted approval
to supply medical cannabis products in the country.
Under Polish legislation, physicians can prescribe
medical cannabis products to patients who can then access it through registered pharmacies. In specific instances, products will
be covered under statutory health insurance, thus establishing a new and significant medical market for Aurora.
"Becoming the first company to supply
cannabis to Poland is validation of Aurora's ability to do business in international markets with high barriers to entry,"
said Neil Belot, Chief Global Business Development Officer. "This is an important milestone for patient access in Poland,
which will provide options for people seeking alternative medications to help manage symptoms of a wide range of medical conditions.
Aurora continues to grow its international footprint, which now spans 19 countries on five continents, and puts us in an enviable
position to capitalize on our early mover advantage."
Maximilian Weinberg, Head of Business Development,
Aurora Europe, added, "We are thrilled to have successfully navigated the complexities of the Polish regulatory framework,
and are proud to become the first company to supply a Polish hospital with medical cannabis. Throughout this process we've established
strong relationships with medical professionals, state-owned wholesalers, and local foundations who have played an integral role
in achieving this milestone."
Headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
with funded capacity in excess of 500,000 kg per annum and sales and operations in 19 countries across five continents, Aurora
is one of the world's largest and leading cannabis companies. Aurora is vertically integrated and horizontally diversified across
every key segment of the value chain, from facility engineering and design to cannabis breeding and genetics research, cannabis

Markham facility, and its wholly owned European medical cannabis distributor Aurora Deutschland, have achieved this level of certification.

growth and strong execution on strategic M&A, which to date includes 15 wholly owned subsidiary companies - MedReleaf,
CanvasRX, Peloton Pharmaceutical, Aurora Deutschland, H2 Biopharma, Urban Cultivator, BC Northern Lights, Larssen Greenhouses,
