CSE: TILT
) (
OTCQX
: TLLTF
), a provider of business solutions to the global cannabis industry that includes inhalation technologies, cultivation, manufacturing, processing, brand development and retail, announced the assignment by its subsidiary, SH Finance Company, LLC, of the Loan and Security Agreement entered into with Ermont, Inc.
