Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") in the capital of the Company and one-half (1/2) of one share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant (a "Warrant") entitles the purchaser to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of CAD 0.55 per Common Share for a period of one year from the date of issuance.

The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.

The net proceeds raised will be used to:

  • Accelerate the Company's Cannabis development program.
  • Provide for system upgrades in connection with the conversion of the existing 2 Tons/year VINIA® production facility into a Cannabis production facility to be operational in H1/2022.
  • Enable the hiring of a number of key roles, which will be critical for the Company's further expansion.
