forward-looking information, including but not limited to the following risks described in greater detail under “Risk Factors”. 

Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events, results, performance or achievements to differ materially
from those described in forward-looking information, there may be other factors not presently known to us or that we presently believe are not material that may cause actions, events, results, performance or achievements to differ from those

 CORPORATE STRUCTURE 

The Company was incorporated on February 28, 2013 under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the “OBCA”) with the name
“MedReleaf Corp.”. The Company’s articles were amended on December 16, 2013 in order to create the former class B shares (which were subsequently amended and then deleted from the Company’s authorized capital pursuant to the
Capital Reorganization), and the Company’s articles were amended again on May 27, 2015 in order to create the former class C shares (which were subsequently re-designated as class B shares pursuant
to the Capital Reorganization (the “Class B Shares”)). 
 In connection with the completion of its initial public
offering and a secondary offering (the “IPO”), on June 6, 2017 the Company completed a capital reorganization (the “Capital Reorganization”) to simplify the Company’s capital structure. The related
amendments to the Company’s articles: (i) replaced the conversion provisions of the former class B shares to permit the implementation of the Capital Reorganization in connection with the IPO; (ii) eliminated the former class B shares
from the authorized capital of the Company; (iii) re-designated the class A common shares as common shares with rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions described under “Capital
Structure” (the “Common Shares”); (iv) re-designated the former class C shares as Class B Shares; (v) subdivided the Common Shares at a ratio of 116.0909 to one; and
(vi) deleted private company transfer restrictions contained in the Company’s articles.

 The Company’s head office is located at Markham Industrial Park, Markham, Ontario L3R 6G3 and its
registered office is located at Suite 3800, Royal Bank Plaza, South Tower, 200 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2Z4. The Company has a fiscal year end of March 31st. 

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUSINESS 

Early Developments 
 In February 2013, MedReleaf
was incorporated under the OBCA for the purpose of becoming a Licensed Producer under the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (Canada) (the “MMPR”) (which has since been repealed and replaced with the current ACMPR)
and participating in the Canadian medical cannabis market. In July 2013, the Company entered into a strategic alliance with Tikun Olam Ltd. (“Tikun Olam”) whereby the Company obtained an exclusive licence to exploit exclusive
varieties of cannabis and access to extensive data that Tikun Olam had gathered from thousands of its patients for over a decade. In consideration for this licence, the Company granted Tikun Olam a royalty of 2.5% of the net revenue earned from the
exploitation of Tikun Olam’s varieties of cannabis, and a royalty of 0.5% of the net revenue earned from any other variety of cannabis, subject to adjustment in certain cases. In September 2013, the Company entered into a lease in respect of
its 55,000 square foot facility in Markham, Ontario (the “Markham Facility”). 
 In February 2014, the Company completed the first
phase of the build-out of the Markham Facility, including its first cultivation room, and received its first licence under the MMPR in respect of such facility (such licence, as amended and renewed from time
to time by Health Canada, the “MMPR Licence”), which initially authorized the Company to produce, sell, possess, ship, transport and deliver dried cannabis. 

In March 2014, the Company opened its patient registration platform and began cultivating cannabis at the Markham Facility. In August 2014, the Company
shipped its first order of medical cannabis product under the MMPR. 
 In June 2014, the Company completed the second phase of the build-out of the Markham Facility, adding three cultivation rooms, and was granted an amendment to its MMPR Licence to cover these rooms, bringing the total number of cultivation rooms to four. 

Developments during the Financial Year ended March 31, 2016 

In August 2015, MedReleaf received an amendment to the MMPR Licence to cover its research and development and plant breeding areas at the Markham Facility. In
November 2015, Health Canada issued a licence to the Company pursuant to an exemption from certain sections of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (Canada) (the “CDSA”), the Narcotic Control Regulations (Canada)
issued pursuant to the CDSA, and relevant provisions of the MMPR authorized by Health Canada that allowed Licensed Producers to conduct activities with cannabis and cannabis oil. This exemption authorized the Company to produce, possess, transport,
deliver and destroy cannabis oil, at its Markham Facility (such licence, as amended and renewed by Health Canada from time to time, the “Supplemental Licence”). In December 2015, the Company completed the third phase of the build-out of its Markham Facility and was granted an amendment to the MMPR Licence to cover three additional cultivation rooms at the Markham Facility, bringing the total number of cultivation rooms to seven, and
which also increased the Company’s production and sales capacity to 3,000 kilograms during the term of the licence. 
 In February 2016, the MMPR
Licence was renewed effective February 15, 2016 for a one year term, which included a renewal to the Supplemental Licence. In connection with this renewal, MedReleaf completed the final phase of the
build-out of its Markham Facility and was granted an amendment to the MMPR Licence to cover three additional cultivation rooms at such facility, bringing the total number of cultivation rooms to 10.

 Developments during the Financial Year ended March 31, 2017 

In July 2016, the Company completed the purchase of its 210,596 square foot facility in Bradford, Ontario (the “Bradford Facility”) for
approximately $8.75 million, which was financed primarily from the proceeds of a $7.5 million credit facility provided by a Canadian financial institution, which was subsequently repaid using loan proceeds advanced under the Credit
Facilities. 
 In August 2016, the ACMPR was introduced to replace the MMPR and the Company’s MMPR Licence and Supplemental Licence were continued
under the ACMPR and are referred to as the “Markham Licence”. 
 In November 2016, the Markham Licence was amended to authorize the Company
to sell cannabis oil and cannabis oil capsules. 
 In February 2017, the Company licensed certain of its intellectual property to Indica Industries Pty Ltd.
(“Indica”), an Australian corporation, in order to support an application for Australian cannabis cultivation and manufacturing licences by such corporation. Under the terms of the agreements, MedReleaf, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, MedReleaf Holdings (Australia) Ltd., acquired a 10% equity interest in Indica. As well, subject to the execution of additional documentation, it is contemplated that the Company would become entitled to receive certain royalties on the
gross revenues of Indica, as well as MedReleaf Holdings (Australia) Ltd. receiving potential additional equity in Indica. 
 Developments during the
Financial Year ended March 31, 2018 
 On April 12, 2017, the Company was issued a “second site” cultivation licence from Health
Canada pursuant to the ACMPR in respect of its Bradford Facility, permitting the cultivation of up to 100 kilograms of dried cannabis, of which it may sell or provide up to three kilograms, solely for the purpose of analytical testing (as amended
and renewed from time to time, the “Bradford Licence” and together with the Markham Licence, the “MedReleaf Licences”). 

On April 17, 2017, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a Canadian chartered bank and another Canadian financial institution (as amended, the
“Credit Agreement”), providing for revolving loans to a maximum credit limit of $10 million and non-revolving term loans to a maximum aggregate amount of $10 million
(collectively, the “Credit Facilities”). 
 On May 26, 2017, Health Canada announced it was enabling Licensed Producers to
increase production of cannabis by permitting Licensed Producers to, among other things, increase cannabis production within existing facilities to the maximum amount authorized for storage, based on the capacity and security level of their vault(s)
or safe(s), in order to better manage production and meet demand. As a result, the Company was authorized to produce greater amounts of medical cannabis products under the Licences than were previously authorized when the MedReleaf Licences were
initially granted. 
 On May 30, 2017 the Company received certification that its production processes met the requirements set by the International
Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICG Q7): Good Manufacturing Practices Guide for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (ICH Good Manufacturing Practices). 

On June 7, 2017 the Company completed its IPO. In connection with the IPO, the Company issued and sold 8,494,742 Common Shares at $9.50 per share for
gross proceeds to the Company of $80,700,049. In addition, certain shareholders sold an aggregate of 2,105,258 Common Shares at $9.50 per share. On the closing of the IPO the Common Shares also commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the
“TSX”) under the symbol “LEAF”.

 On October 11, 2017, the Company received an amended Bradford Licence for the use of its mother room
and clone room to support the growing capacity at the Bradford Facility and, on October 20, 2017, the Bradford Licence was amended again to include the use of two additional cultivation rooms. On November 3, 2017, the Bradford Licence was
amended to authorize the commercial sale of medical cannabis products from the Bradford Facility. 
 On November 14, 2017, the Company announced that
Indica had been granted a licence from the Australian Government Office of Drug Control for the cultivation and production of medical cannabis. The licence to undertake authorized cannabis activities commences on November 10, 2018 in order to
allow time to complete infrastructure development of a production facility. 
 On December 4, 2017, the Company completed an offering on a “bought
deal” basis by way of short-form prospectus, which also included a secondary offering, pursuant to which the Company issued 3,625,470 Common Shares at a price of $16.55 per Common Share, for gross proceeds to the Company of approximately
$60 million (the “December 2017 Offering”). Certain selling shareholders of the Company sold an aggregate of 2,447,130 Common Shares for aggregate gross proceeds to the selling shareholders of approximately
$40 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the December 2017 Offering to finance the acquisition and/or construction of additional cannabis production and manufacturing facilities in Canada as well in other jurisdictions with
federal legal cannabis markets, where warranted by the opportunities available to the Company, and the expansion of the Company’s marketing and sales initiatives. 

On December 21, 2017, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to become a supplier to Shoppers Drug Mart of MedReleaf-branded medical
cannabis products, with such agreement being contingent on Shoppers Drug Mart receiving a distribution licence from Health Canada. 
 On January 31,
2018 the Company completed an offering on a “bought deal” basis by way of short-form prospectus (the “January 2018 Offering”) pursuant to which the Company issued 5,000,000 units of the Company at a price of $26.50
per unit, for gross proceeds of $132.5 million. Each unit consisted of one Common Share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each full Common Share purchase warrant, a
“Warrant”). The Warrants were issued pursuant to a common share warrant indenture dated January 31, 2018 between the Company and TSX Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Indenture”). Each
Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $34.50 (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances) until January 31, 2020 (subject to accelerated expiry at the Company’s option if the volume-weighted
average trading price of the Common Shares for 10 consecutive trading days exceeds $51.75). The underwriters of the January 2018 Offering exercised the over-allotment option for the purchase of 375,000 Warrants, which closed on February 1,
2018. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the January 2018 Offering for the same purposes as the net proceeds received in connection with the December 2017 Offering. 

On February 6, 2018, the Company announced that Health Canada had approved the sale by the Company of cannabis oil softgel capsules. 

On March 6, 2018 the Company announced that it had entered into an exclusive licencing agreement with Woodstock Cannabis Company for use of the iconic
Woodstock brand in the Canadian cannabis market. Under the terms of the agreement, MedReleaf would grow and sell a variety of strains and formats under the Woodstock banner, expanding the offering of products as regulations allow. 

On March 19, 2018, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to become the largest supplier of medical cannabis products to
Cannamedical Pharma GMBH, a leading medical cannabis distributor to pharmacies in Germany. 
 Developments Subsequent to the Financial Year ended
March 31, 2018 
 On April 11, 2018, the Company announced that it had completed a supply agreement with Société des alcools
du Québec (“SAQ”) to supply the Province of Québec with a guaranteed minimum 8,000 kilograms per year of high-quality adult recreational-use cannabis.

 On April 12, 2018, the Company announced that it had purchased one million square feet of existing
greenhouse infrastructure on a 69 acre property located in Exeter, Ontario, together with 95 acres of adjacent land (collectively, the “Exeter Property”) for a total purchase price of approximately $26 million,
consisting of cash and Common Shares. 
 On May 14, 2018, the Company and Aurora Cannabis Inc. (“Aurora”) entered into a definitive
arrangement agreement (as amended, the “Arrangement Agreement”) pursuant to which Aurora will acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the OBCA (the
“Arrangement”). Under the terms of the transaction, holders of Common Shares will receive 3.575 common shares of Aurora and $0.000001 in cash for each Common Share held (subject to the making of joint tax elections). Upon completion
of the Arrangement, existing Aurora and MedReleaf shareholders would own approximately 61% and 39% of the pro forma company, respectively, on a fully-diluted basis. The Arrangement has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of
each of MedReleaf and Aurora and each board has recommended that their respective shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement. 
 Pursuant to the
Arrangement, among other steps and procedures, the following transactions will occur: 
  

	 	(a)	 the Company and a wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated under the OBCA (“MedReleaf Sub”)
will amalgamate (the “First Amalgamation”) to continue as one corporation (“Amalco”) and, upon such First Amalgamation; (i) all of the issued and outstanding shares of MedReleaf Sub will be cancelled
without any repayment of capital in respect thereof: (ii) the by-laws and articles of amalgamation of Amalco will be the same as the by-laws and articles of
amalgamation of the Company; (iii) the issued and outstanding Common Shares shall continue to remain issued and outstanding as common shares of Amalco; (iv) each option to purchase Common Shares outstanding will be exchanged for a like
option of Amalco; (v) each Warrant will be exchanged for a like common share purchase warrant of Amalco; (vi) the property of the Company and MedReleaf Sub will continue as the property of Amalco; (vii) all rights, contracts, permits
and interest of the Company or MedReleaf Sub will continue as rights, contracts, permits and interests of Amalco; (viii) Amalco shall be liable for the obligations of the Company and MedReleaf Sub; and (ix) all existing causes of action,
claims or liabilities to prosecution, and all civil, criminal or administrative actions or proceedings pending by or against the Company or MedReleaf Subco and all convictions against, or rulings, orders or judgments in favour of or against the
Company or MedReleaf Sub will be unaffected by the First Amalgamation; 


  

	 	(b)	 each Common Share held by a dissenting shareholder of the Company will be deemed to have been transferred and
assigned to Aurora in consideration for a debt claim against Aurora determined and payable in accordance with the Arrangement; 


  

	 	(c)	 each Common Share outstanding immediately following the First Amalgamation that is held by an electing holder
shall be deemed to be assigned and transferred by the holder to Aurora solely in exchange for share consideration under the Arrangement; and (i) each holder of such Common Shares shall cease to be a holder thereof; and (ii) Aurora shall be
deemed the transferee of such Common Shares; 


  

	 	(d)	 concurrently with the above step, each Common Share outstanding immediately following the First Amalgamation
(other than Common Shares held by electing holders described in (c) above) shall be deemed to be assigned and transferred by the holder to Aurora in exchange for the share and cash consideration under the Arrangement; and (i) each holder
of such Common Shares shall cease to be a holder thereof; and (ii) Aurora shall be deemed the transferee of such Common Shares; 


  

	 	(e)	 the Common Shares held by Aurora will be transferred to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aurora (the
“Aurora Sub”) in consideration of the issue by the Aurora Sub of one common share of Aurora Sub for each Common Share transferred; and 



  
 6 














	 	(f)	 Aurora Sub and Amalco shall amalgamate (the “Second Amalgamation”) to continue as one
corporation (“New Amalco”). 


 The implementation of the Arrangement will be subject to, among other things, the
approval of at least 66 2⁄3% of the votes cast by holders of Common Shares at a special meeting of MedReleaf shareholders expected to take place on
July 18, 2018, unless adjourned or postponed. The Arrangement is also subject to the receipt of shareholder approval by Aurora shareholders, as well as certain regulatory, court and stock exchange approvals and certain other closing conditions
customary in transactions of this nature. 
 DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS 

Overview 
 MedReleaf is a Licensed Producer of
medical cannabis products based in Markham, Ontario. The Company produces and sells its medical cannabis products to patients across Canada. MedReleaf is a research and development-driven company dedicated to patient care, scientific innovation,
research and advancing the understanding of the therapeutic benefits of cannabis. 
 Currently, the Company primarily derives its revenues from the sale to
its patients of dried cannabis, cannabis oils, cannabis oil capsules and, recently, a topical cream (designed to work with the Company’s cannabis oils). MedReleaf’s sales are supported by a variety of initiatives, including health
conference sponsorships, as well as through its cannabis education and outreach team of employees. The Company expects both its portfolio of products and the jurisdictions in which it operates to expand as applicable federal laws allow, resources
permit, and where market research indicates opportunity. See “Description of the Business – International Opportunities”. 

MedReleaf’s medical cannabis products are cultivated and manufactured in its two production facilities, its 55,000 square foot Markham Facility and its
210,956 square foot Bradford Facility (collectively, the “MedReleaf Facilities”). See “Description of the Business – MedReleaf’s Facilities”. 

MedReleaf has quality management and environmental management systems that are certified to the internationally recognized standards of ISO 9001 and ISO 14001
respectively, as well as an occupational health and safety management system certified to the internationally recognized standards of OHSAS 18001, which collectively cover research and development, production, processing, distribution, selling and
destruction of medical cannabis. These certified systems provide the framework to optimize management control, increase staff safety and reduce environmental impact. Moreover, the Company’s ISO 9001 certified quality management system has been
designed to maintain the consistency and quality of the Company’s medical cannabis products. The Company’s systems require regular, in-process controls, testing and analysis to ensure the consistency
of medical cannabis products and that the Company’s products meet stringent specifications during production and until delivery to patients. 

MedReleaf currently employs approximately 220 full-time employees. The Company also engages agency staff as its needs require. 

The MedReleaf Licences 
 The Markham Licence is
specific to the Markham Facility and permits the Company to, among other things, produce, sell, possess, ship, transport, deliver and destroy dried cannabis, bottled cannabis oil, cannabis oil capsules, cannabis plants and seed at such facility. The
Markham Licence provides that the substances inventory at the Markham Facility cannot exceed at any given time a maximum storage capacity value of $31,250,000 for its security level 9 vault. 

  
 7 













 The Company also produces and sells medical cannabis products from the Bradford Facility pursuant to the
Bradford Licence. The Bradford Licence is specific to the Bradford Facility and presently permits the Company to, among other things, produce, sell, possess, ship, transport, deliver and destroy dried cannabis at such facility. The Bradford Licence
provides that the substances inventory at the Bradford Facility cannot exceed at any given time a maximum storage capacity value of $150,000,000 for its security level 10 vault. 

As the MedReleaf Licences are specific to the respective MedReleaf Facilities, adverse changes or developments affecting such facilities could have a material
and adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue producing and/or selling medical cannabis products, its business, financial condition and prospects. See “Risk Factors”. 

As it has done successfully in the past, the Company expects to apply for amendments to the MedReleaf Licences and seek additional licences where required, in
order to meet the Company’s expanding operational and production capabilities. The time it takes Health Canada to process any such amendment application or application for a new licence varies depending on the complexity of the application and
other factors outside the control of the Company. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any amendment(s) sought in respect of the MedReleaf Licences, or any new licences sought by the Company, will be obtained on terms desired, or at all. See
“Risk Factors”. 
 In addition, unless renewed, the MedReleaf Licences will expire at the end of their respective terms, with the
Markham Licence expiring on February 14, 2020 and the Bradford Licence expiring on April 10, 2020. However, as the Company has successfully done in the past, the Company intends to seek the renewal of its licences prior to the expiration
of their respective terms. Despite the Company’s previous successes in obtaining renewals of its licences, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to renew the MedReleaf Licences on the same terms, or at all. See
“Risk Factors”. 
 MedReleaf’s Facilities 

Markham Facility 
 The Company currently operates the
55,000 square foot Markham Facility, which is covered by the Markham Licence. The Markham Facility is occupied pursuant to a lease agreement dated September 3, 2013 (the “Markham Lease”). The initial term of the Markham
Lease expires on March 31, 2024, however the Company has the right (provided it is not then in default of the Markham Lease) to extend the Markham Lease for two further terms of five years. The Markham Lease permits the Company to use the lands
and building comprising the Markham Facility for the production of medical cannabis, to the extent permitted by all laws and in keeping with the standards of a first-class industrial building. As of the date of this Annual Information Form, the
Markham Lease is in good standing. 
 The Markham Facility is a modern, fully operational facility that was built out in three phases, with each phase
capitalizing on the insights and knowledge gained from MedReleaf’s operations over time. The Markham Facility has approximately 23,500 square feet of dedicated cultivation space organized into 10 cultivation rooms, and approximately 31,500
square feet of support and auxiliary services space, including areas for propagation, trimming, drying, oil extraction, shipping, storage, water treatment, laboratories, quality assurance and quality control facilities, maintenance areas, shipping
and distribution areas, management offices, and a patient care centre. 
 The Company believes that its indoor cultivation techniques, using proprietary know-how developed at the Markham Facility, have enabled it to produce premium, indoor-grown medical cannabis products at costs comparable with greenhouse operators. 

Bradford Facility 
 The 210,596 square foot Bradford
Facility represents a generational improvement over the Markham Facility, incorporating both the Company’s insights and elements of the latest agricultural industry improvements in cultivation methodology, facility control and irrigation system
design. The Bradford Facility is an indoor cultivation facility. Subsequent to the financial year ended March 31, 2018, the Company also purchased property adjacent to the Bradford Facility which will be used for ancillary purposes, such as
administrative offices. 

  
 8 













 Upon full build-out completion, the Bradford Facility will have
approximately 86,000 square feet of dedicated cultivation space organized into 19 cultivation rooms and approximately 124,000 square feet of support and auxiliary services space which will include areas for propagation, trimming, drying,
commercial-scale oil extraction, pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing, an industrial kitchen, shipping, storage, water treatment, laboratories, plant-based and analytical research and development facilities, quality assurance and quality control
facilities, maintenance areas, shipping and distribution areas, and administrative offices. 
 No assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to
obtain any required amendments to the Bradford Licence or that the completion of the remaining phases of the build-out of the Bradford Facility will be completed on time or on budget, or at all. See
“Risk Factors”. 
 Exeter Property 

The Company also recently acquired the Exeter Property, consisting of one million square feet of existing greenhouse infrastructure on a 69 acre property in
Exeter, Ontario, along with 95 acres of adjacent land. The Company is continuing to consider the manner and scope of retrofitting the Exeter Property. 
 It
is expected that, after retrofitting, the Exeter Property will have production capacity of up to 105,000 kilograms of cannabis product annually with a first harvest anticipated by the end of calendar 2018, subject to receipt of a licence from Health
Canada. 
 The retrofitted Exeter Property is expected to add large scale, low-cost greenhouse production alongside
the Markham Facility and Bradford Facility and, when fully operational, is expected to increase the Company’s fully funded capacity to approximately 140,000 kilograms of cannabis product per year. The adjacent lands on the Exeter Property could
also accommodate a greenhouse approximately 1.5 times larger than the existing greenhouse infrastructure on the Exeter Property, providing for future expansion of cultivation capacity. 

No assurance can be provided that the Exeter Property will be developed on the timelines anticipated, or at all. See “Risk Factors”. 

Storage and Security 
 The ACMPR prescribes physical
security requirements that are necessary to secure sites where Licensed Producers conduct activities with cannabis for medical purposes. 
 As required by
the ACMPR, the Markham Facility contains a storage vault that is deemed to be “security level nine”, as defined by the Health Canada Directive on Physical Security Requirements for Controlled Substances (the “Security
Directive”), and as determined by the construction of the vault and MedReleaf’s proximity to a major city (Toronto). The vault can only be accessed by a “Responsible Person in Charge” (as defined under the ACMPR) and at least
one Responsible Person in Charge must be present in the vault at all times if the doors are open. The Bradford Facility contains a vault deemed to be “security level ten”, as defined by the Security Directive. 

The Markham Facility features a robust security system consisting of security cameras, motion sensors, code locked doors, seismic sensors, and a staff of
security personnel. These security measures ensure MedReleaf is compliant with Health Canada’s security requirements. The Bradford Facility is safeguarded with a security system similar to the Markham Facility. 

  
 9 













 On January 25, 2018, Health Canada announced changes to the physical security requirements under the
ACMPR, providing that Licensed Producers were no longer required to meet the vault and storage measures outlined in the Security Directive, but rather Licensed Producers may store cannabis within a secure area of their facility. In addition,
Licensed Producers are no longer required to maintain constant video surveillance inside the rooms where cannabis is being cultivated, propagated or harvested. All access points to cultivation, propagation and harvesting rooms continue to be subject
to constant surveillance requirements to record all entries and exits. 
 It is possible that Health Canada may make further changes to the physical storage
and security requirements, including changes that are more or less onerous to those presently required. Any such changes to existing regulations and regulatory requirements may affect the Company’s business and operations, potentially
adversely. See “Risk Factors”. 
 Principal Products 

Medical Cannabis Products 
 Under the ACMPR and the
MedReleaf Licences, the Company is authorized to cultivate and sell cannabis products for medical purposes in both dried and oil form, to residents of Canada who comply with the requirements of the ACMPR. The Company’s medical cannabis products
can be ingested in a variety of ways, including smoking, vaporizing, and consumption in the form of oil or edibles. 
 MedReleaf strongly believes that
maintaining both the cannabinoids and terpenes in their original relative ratios is important in order to maximize the medicinal properties of medical cannabis products and therefore it endeavours to do so with its products. 

The Company’s plant genetics department carefully breeds new varieties of cannabis plants resulting in unique varieties of cannabis. Together with those
varieties of medical cannabis products supplied on an exclusive basis by Tikun Olam, MedReleaf is able to offer a broad spectrum of medical cannabis products designed to address a wide variety of therapeutic needs. 

MedReleaf currently sells numerous strain varieties of cannabis in three main product lines: dried cannabis, cannabis oils, and cannabis oil capsules. The
Company intends to introduce new formats for its medical cannabis products if and when authorized by Health Canada. 
 Additionally, MedReleaf also seeks to
maintain a minimum level of inventory to ensure that it can continue to provide its patients with quality cannabis products on a consistent basis, without supply interruption, while also acquiring new patients. 

New Products and Accessories 
 MedReleaf has a variety of
new medical cannabis products at various stages of development, including oral products, topical products, edible products and inhalable products. These products will need to be approved by Health Canada before they can be offered. No assurance can
be given that the Company will succeed in bringing any of these products to market. See “Risk Factors”. 
 In addition to its
medical cannabis products, the Company also sells a variety of accessories including grinders, vaporizers and its exclusive lockable containers, and continues to explore expanding these offerings for its patients. 

Principal Markets 
 New patients are acquired by
the Company through physician and clinic referrals or by word-of-mouth recommendations from existing patients. The Company has long believed that Canadian Forces
veterans suffering from conditions for which cannabis consumption may be helpful represent an underserved market opportunity. MedReleaf has dedicated significant resources to servicing this patient community, including physician and patient
education, outreach initiatives and medical research. 

  
 10 













 The Company also strives to lead in the non-veteran patient
segments, while maintaining a strong position in the Canadian Forces veteran market. In addition, if and when recreational usage of cannabis products is legalized in Canada, the Company plans to take advantage of such market opportunities by
entering the recreational market. See “Description of the Business—Expected Legalization of Recreational Cannabis in Canada”. 

Finally, the Company intends to address market opportunities internationally, where applicable federal laws allow, resources permit, and where market research
indicates opportunity. See “Description of the Business – International Opportunities”. 
 Distribution Methods

 The Company’s patients order medical cannabis products through the Company’s online store or by phone. Medical cannabis is and will continue
to be delivered by secured courier or other methods permitted by the ACMPR or future regulation. 
 The Company will distribute recreational cannabis
products in accordance with the finalized regulatory framework in relation to cannabis for recreational purposes in Canada. For example, the Company has entered into an agreement to become a supplier to Shoppers Drug Mart of MedReleaf-branded
medical cannabis products, with such agreement being contingent on Shoppers Drug Mart receiving a distribution licence from Health Canada. In addition, the Company entered into a supply agreement with SAQ to supply the Province of Québec with
a guaranteed minimum 8,000 kilograms per year of high-quality adult recreational-use cannabis, pending the legalization of cannabis for recreational purposes. 

The Company may also distribute medical and/or recreational cannabis products internationally in accordance with all domestic and international laws and
regulations. For example, in March, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to become the largest supplier of medical cannabis products to Cannamedical Pharma GMBH, a leading medical cannabis distributor to pharmacies in Germany. 

Research and Development 
 In addition to the
production and sale of medical cannabis products, the Company is also focused on research and development activities, which are organized into the following four main areas: plant and process productivity; plant genetics; product engineering and
innovation and clinical research. 
 Specialized Knowledge, Skills and Resources 

Knowledge with respect to cultivating and growing cannabis is important in the cannabis industry. The nature of growing cannabis is not substantially different
from the nature of growing other agricultural products. Variables such as temperature, humidity, lighting, air flow, watering and feeding cycles are meticulously defined and controlled to produce consistent product and to avoid contamination. The
product is cut, sorted and dried under defined conditions that are established to protect the activity and purity of the product. Once processing is complete, each and every processing batch is subject to full testing against stringent quality
specifications. 
 The Company grows the primary component of its finished products, namely, cannabis. The Company’s cultivation operations are
dependent on a number of key inputs and their related costs including raw materials and supplies related to the Company’s growing operations, as well as electricity, water and other utilities. See “Risk Factors”. 

Staff with suitable horticultural and quality assurance expertise is generally available on the market in the locations where the Company operates or
anticipates cultivation activity. The Company also requires patient care staff, which will grow as its business grows. Patient care staff is a skillset that is also generally available in the market in the locations where the Company operates.

 Protection of Intangible Assets 

The ownership and protection of the Company’s intellectual property is a significant aspect of the Company’s future success. Currently the Company
protects its intangible assets through trade secrets, technical know-how and proprietary information. The Company protects its intellectual property by seeking and obtaining registered protection (including
patents) where possible, developing and implementing standard operating procedures and entering into agreements with parties that have access to the Company’s inventions, trade secrets, technical know-how
and proprietary information such as business partners, collaborators, employees and consultants, to protect the Company’s confidentiality and ownership of its intellectual property. The Company also seeks to preserve the integrity and
confidentiality of its inventions, trade secrets, trademarks, technical know-how and proprietary information by maintaining physical security of the Company’s premises and physical and electronic security
of the Company’s information technology systems. In addition, the Company has sought trademark and patent protection in Canada and many other countries. 

Canadian Medical Cannabis Regulatory Overview 
 The
ACMPR are the current governing regulations regarding the production, sale and distribution of cannabis and cannabis oil extracts for medical purposes in Canada. The ACMPR provide for three possible alternatives for Canadian residents who have been
authorized by their health care practitioner to access cannabis for medical purposes: 
  

	 	•	 	 they can continue to access quality-controlled cannabis by registering with Licensed Producers;



  

	 	•	 	 they can register with Health Canada to produce a limited amount of cannabis for their own medical purposes
(starting materials must be obtained from a Licensed Producer); or 


  

	 	•	 	 they can designate someone else who is registered with Health Canada to produce cannabis on their behalf
(starting materials must be obtained from a Licensed Producer). 


 In administering the ACMPR, Health Canada has two main roles: 

 

	 	•	 	 licensing and overseeing the commercial industry; and 



 

	 	•	 	 registering and overseeing individuals who produce a limited amount of cannabis for their own medical purposes
(or to have another individual produce it on their behalf). 


 The ACMPR sets out, among other things, the authorized activities and
general responsibilities of Licensed Producers, including: 
  

	 	•	 	 the requirement to obtain and maintain a licence from Health Canada prior to commencing any activities;



  

	 	•	 	 calculating the quantity of cannabis, other than dried cannabis, that is equivalent to a given quantity of dried
cannabis; 


  

	 	•	 	 security measures relating to facilities and personnel; 



 

	 	•	 	 good production practices; 



 

	 	•	 	 packaging, shipping, labelling, import and export and record-keeping requirements; and 



 

	 	•	 	 patient registration and ordering requirements. 



  
 12 













 Health Canada requires rigorous testing of cannabis products and derivatives provided by Licensed Producers.
A Licensed Producer is subject to a wide variety of compliance and enforcement activities conducted by Health Canada after it has received its licence. For instance, Health Canada will typically perform unannounced inspections on a Licensed
Producer’s facility to ensure adequate security measures and production practices are in place. 
 Expected Legalization of Recreational Cannabis
in Canada 
 In connection with the current Government of Canada’s platform advocating for the legalization and regulation of recreational
cannabis in order to dismantle the illegal market and restrict access by under-age individuals, on April 13, 2017, the Government of Canada released Bill C-45
which, if implemented, would enact the Cannabis Act. The Cannabis Act would provide a licensing and permitting scheme for the production, testing, packaging, labeling, sending, delivery, transportation, sale, possession, and disposal of cannabis for
non-medical (i.e., recreational) use, to be implemented by regulations made under the Cannabis Act. The Government of Canada advised that it intends to bring the Cannabis Act into force no later than July 2018
(or such other date that may be determined by the Government of Canada). The Cannabis Act proposes to maintain separate access to cannabis for medical or scientific purposes, however the transitional provisions of the Cannabis Act provide that every
license issued under Section 35 of the ACMPR that is in force immediately before the day on which the Cannabis Act comes into force is deemed to be a licence issued under the Cannabis Act, and that such licence will continue in force until it
is revoked or expires. 
 On October 3, 2017, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health proposed amendments to the Cannabis Act including, among
other things, an amendment that would permit cannabis edibles and concentrates to be sold, to come into force no later than 12 months after the Cannabis Act comes into force. 

On November 10, 2017, the Government of Canada proposed that federal tax on cannabis for recreational purposes should not exceed $1 per gram or 10% of
the producer’s price, whichever is higher, with retail sales taxes levied on top of that amount. 
 While the Cannabis Act provides for the regulation
of the commercial production of cannabis for recreational purposes and related matters by the federal government, the Cannabis Act proposes that the provinces and territories of Canada will have authority to regulate other aspects of recreational
cannabis (similar to what is currently the case for liquor and tobacco products), such as sale and distribution, minimum age requirements, places where cannabis can be consumed, and a range of other matters. 

The Governments of every Canadian province and territory have, to varying degrees, announced proposed regulatory regimes for the distribution and sale of
cannabis for recreational purposes within those jurisdictions. Most of these Canadian jurisdictions have announced a minimum age of 19 years old, except for Québec and Alberta, where the minimum age will be 18. 

There is no guarantee that the provincial and territorial frameworks supporting the legalization of cannabis for recreational use in Canada will be
implemented on the terms anticipated, or at all. See “Risk Factors”. 
 On November 21, 2017, Health Canada released for public
consultation its proposed approach to the regulation of cannabis. The purpose of the consultation paper was to solicit public feedback on an initial set of regulatory proposals that Health Canada is considering, focused on the regulations that would
facilitate the coming into force of the proposed Cannabis Act. On March 19, 2018, Health Canada published a summary of the comments received on the proposed regulations as well as some proposed additions to the regulatory proposal which cover
seven broad categories, namely: (1) licences, permits and authorizations; (2) security clearances; (3) cannabis tracking system; (4) cannabis products; (5) packaging and labelling; (6) cannabis for medical purposes; and
(7) health products and cosmetics containing cannabis. The details of the proposed regulations are subject to change until final regulations are published. 

  
 13 













 The Senate of Canada adopted Bill C-45 on June 7, 2018 with
amendments that will now be considered by the House of Commons. 
 MedReleaf intends to participate in the Canadian recreational market, if and when the
recreational use of cannabis is legalized in Canada, and only in compliance with all applicable federal and provincial laws and regulations concerning the Canadian recreational cannabis market. As it has done in the Canadian medical cannabis market,
the Company’s customer acquisition strategy for the Canadian recreational cannabis market will be to focus on leveraging its analytical and consumer insight capabilities in order to identify profitable market segments, understand the unique
needs of each segment, design brands and products to address market demand, and collect and analyze customer and sales data to improve the customer experience. 

No assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to participate in the Canadian recreational cannabis market, if or when such market is created
through the legalization of recreational cannabis use, or that the Company will, or will be able to, design products and service the market segments in which it may compete, or that the Company will be able to maintain profitability. See
“Risk Factors”. 
 International Opportunities 

In addition to its Canadian domestic operations, the Company is also exploring international opportunities, including (subject to applicable laws and
regulations): (a) opportunities to export its medical cannabis products to other countries; and (b) opportunities to create international alliances with local partners to apply for cultivation licences in other countries. MedReleaf is currently
pursuing these opportunities in several countries. 
 The Company does not have, and does not intend to engage in, any direct, indirect or ancillary
involvement in the U.S. cannabis industry (as described in CSA Staff Notice 51-352 – Issuers with U.S. Marijuana-Related Activities (Revised)) until it is federally legal to do so. 

The Company will only pursue international opportunities in accordance and compliance with all applicable laws. The Company is currently pursuing
international opportunities in several countries where a legal framework for the medical and/or recreational use of cannabis exists or is expected to be implemented. The timing of the Company’s activities in any international market is
dependent on the pace of regulatory developments and, as such, it is not feasible for the Company to provide a timeline with respect to those activities. See “Risk Factors”. 

Competitive Conditions 
 The principal competitive
factors on which MedReleaf competes with other Licensed Producers are the price and quality of its medical cannabis products (and associated goodwill and brand recognition), physician familiarity and willingness to prescribe the Company’s
medical cannabis products, and the Company’s patient services. While MedReleaf prices its cannabis products according to the Company’s perception of market demand, given its relatively low cost of production (based on management’s
assessment of the Company’s own financial information against that of all publicly-traded Licensed Producers), it is expected that the Company will be able to enjoy pricing flexibility while maintaining its margins. See “Risk
Factors”. 
 In addition, if the Cannabis Act and provincial and territorial recreational regulatory frameworks are implemented, the size of the
medical cannabis market may be reduced and new business challenges may arise for companies participating in the medical cannabis market and/or intending to participate in the recreational cannabis market. It is expected that the recreational
cannabis market will be highly competitive. 

  
 14 













 RISK FACTORS 

The following specific factors could materially adversely affect MedReleaf and should be considered when deciding whether to make an investment in the
Company and the Common Shares. Some of the following factors are interrelated and, consequently, investors should treat such risk factors as a whole. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones that could affect the Company or the Common
Shares and additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company, or that it currently deems to be immaterial, may also impair the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company and/or the value of the Common
Shares. If any of the following risks or other risks occur, they could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations and/or the value of the Common Shares. There is no assurance that any
risk management steps taken by the Company will avoid future loss due to the occurrence of the risks described below or other unforeseen risks. 

Risks Related to the Business and the Industry 

The Company is dependent upon the MedReleaf Licences for its ability to grow, store and sell medical cannabis and other products derived therefrom and
the MedReleaf Licences are subject to ongoing compliance, reporting requirements and renewal 
 The Company’s ability to grow, store and sell
cannabis for medical purposes in Canada is dependent on the MedReleaf Licences. The MedReleaf Licences are subject to ongoing compliance, reporting requirements and renewal. Although MedReleaf believes it will meet the requirements of the ACMPR for
future renewals of the MedReleaf Licences, there can be no guarantee that Health Canada will renew the MedReleaf Licences or, if renewed, that they will be renewed on the same or similar terms or that Health Canada will not revoke the MedReleaf
Licences. Should the Company fail to comply with the requirements of the MedReleaf Licences or should Health Canada not renew the MedReleaf Licences when required, or renew the MedReleaf Licences on different terms or revoke the MedReleaf Licences,
there would be a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 
 Other governmental licences are
currently, and in the future may be, required in connection with MedReleaf’s operations, in addition to other unknown permits and approvals which may be required. To the extent such permits and approvals are required and not obtained, the
Company may be prevented from operating and/or expanding its business, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

The Company may not always succeed in complying with the regulatory requirements for Licensed Producers as set out by the ACMPR and Health Canada

 Successful execution of the Company’s business objectives is contingent, in part, upon compliance with regulatory requirements enacted by
governmental authorities, including the ACMPR, and obtaining all regulatory approvals, where necessary, for the sale of the Company’s medical cannabis products. The commercial medical cannabis industry is a new industry in Canada and the ACMPR
is a new regime and has no close precedent in Canadian law. The effect of Health Canada’s administration, application and enforcement of the regime established by the ACMPR on the Company and its business, and any delays in obtaining, or
failure to obtain, applicable regulatory approvals which may be required, may significantly delay or impact the development of markets, products and sales initiatives and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial
condition and results of operations. 

  
 15 













 In addition, Health Canada inspectors routinely assess the Company’s facilities against applicable
regulatory requirements and provide follow-up reports noting any observed deficiencies. Accordingly, MedReleaf regularly incurs ongoing costs and obligations related to regulatory compliance. While the Company
endeavours to comply with all relevant laws, regulations and guidelines and, to the Company’s knowledge, it is in compliance or in the process of being assessed for compliance with all such laws, regulations and guidelines, any failure by the
Company to comply with applicable regulatory requirements of the ACMPR, or more vigorous enforcement thereof by Health Canada, could require extensive changes to the Company’s operations, increased compliance costs, penalties or restrictions on
the Company’s operations or give rise to material liabilities or a revocation of the MedReleaf Licences and other permits, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Further, Health Canada may change its administration, application or enforcement procedures at any time, which could impact the Company’s costs and resources. 

The laws, regulations and guidelines generally applicable to the medical cannabis industry may change in ways currently unforeseen by the Company,
including the expected implementation of the Cannabis Act 
 MedReleaf’s operations are subject to the ACMPR and various other laws, regulations
and guidelines relating to the manufacture, packaging/labelling, advertising, sale, transportation, storage and disposal of cannabis for medical purposes but also including laws and regulations relating to controlled substances, health and safety,
privacy, the conduct of operations and the protection of the environment. To the knowledge of the Company’s management, other than routine corrections that may be required by Health Canada from time to time, the Company is currently in material
compliance with all existing laws, regulations and guidelines. If any changes to such laws, regulations or guidelines occur, which are matters beyond the control of the Company, the Company may incur significant costs in complying with such changes
or it may be unable to comply therewith, which in turn may result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

The Liberal Party of Canada, which has formed the current federal Government of Canada, has made electoral commitments to legalize, regulate and tax
recreational cannabis use in Canada. On April 13, 2017, the Government of Canada introduced the Cannabis Act. The Government of Canada has provided guidance that, subject to Parliamentary approval and Royal Assent, it intends to provide
regulated and restricted access to cannabis no later than July 2018, however there is no assurance that the legalization of cannabis by the Government of Canada will occur as anticipated or at all. 

Furthermore, the legislative framework pertaining to the Canadian recreational cannabis market will be subject to significant provincial and territorial
regulation, which will vary across provinces and territories and result in an asymmetric regulatory and market environment, different competitive pressures and significant additional compliance and other costs and/or limitations on the
Company’s ability to participate in such market. 
 Future clinical research studies on the effects of medical cannabis may lead to conclusions
that dispute or conflict with the Company’s understanding and belief regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing and social acceptance of cannabis 

Research in Canada, the U.S. and internationally regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing and social acceptance of cannabis or
isolated cannabinoids remains in early stages. There have been relatively few clinical trials on the benefits of cannabis or isolated cannabinoids. The statements made in this Annual Information Form concerning the potential medical benefits of
cannabinoids are based on published articles and reports. As a result, the statements made in this Annual Information Form are subject to the experimental parameters, qualifications and limitations in the studies that have been completed. 

Although MedReleaf believes that the articles, reports and studies support its beliefs regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing and
social acceptance of cannabis as set out in this Annual Information Form, future research and clinical trials may prove such statements to be incorrect, or could raise concerns regarding, and perceptions relating to, cannabis. Given these risks,
uncertainties and assumptions, undue reliance should not be placed on such articles and reports. 

  
 16 













 Future research studies and clinical trials may draw opposing conclusions to those stated in this Annual
Information Form or reach negative conclusions regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing, social acceptance or other facts and perceptions related to medical cannabis, which could have a material adverse effect on the
demand for the Company’s products with the potential to lead to a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

The MedReleaf Facilities are integral to the Company’s business and adverse changes or developments affecting either of the Markham Facility or the
Bradford Facility may impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations 
 Adverse changes or developments affecting
the MedReleaf Facilities, including but not limited to a force majeure event or a breach of security, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and prospects. Any breach of the security measures
and other facility requirements, including any failure to comply with recommendations or requirements arising from inspections by Health Canada, could also have an impact on MedReleaf’s ability to continue operating under the MedReleaf Licences
or the prospect of renewing the MedReleaf Licences or could result in a revocation of the MedReleaf Licences. 
 The Company is also in the process of
completing the build-out of its Bradford Facility. Management of the Company expects that the Bradford Facility, upon full build-out completion, will significantly
increase the Company’s cultivation and growing capacity. However, no assurance can be given that Health Canada will approve necessary amendments to the Bradford Licence to take full advantage of the Bradford Facility once fully built. If the
Company is unable to secure any necessary amendments to the Bradford Licence, the expectations of management with respect to the increased future cultivation and growing capacity may not be borne out, which could have a material adverse effect on
the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, construction delays or cost over-runs in respect of the build-out of the Bradford Facility, howsoever caused, could have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 
 The medical cannabis industry and market are
relatively new in Canada, and this industry and market may not continue to exist or grow as anticipated or the Company may ultimately be unable to succeed in this new industry and market 

As a Licensed Producer, MedReleaf is operating its business in a relatively new medical cannabis industry and market. In addition to being subject to general
business risks, a business involving an agricultural product and a regulated consumer product, the Company needs to continue to build brand awareness in this industry and market through significant investments in its strategy, its production
capacity, quality assurance, and compliance with regulations. These activities may not promote the Company’s brand and products as effectively as intended, or at all. Competitive conditions, consumer tastes, patient requirements and spending
patterns in this new industry and market are relatively unknown and may have unique circumstances that differ from existing industries and markets. 
 In
addition, the ACMPR also permits patients to produce a limited amount of cannabis for their own medical purposes or to designate a person to produce a limited amount of cannabis on their behalf and the proposed Cannabis Act provides for individuals
to produce limited amounts of cannabis for their own recreational use. This could potentially significantly reduce the market for the Company’s products, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial
condition and results of operations. 
 Accordingly, there are no assurances that this industry and market will continue to exist or grow as currently
estimated or anticipated, or function and evolve in a manner consistent with management’s expectations and assumptions. Any event or circumstance that affects the medical cannabis industry and market could have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

  
 17 













 The Company may compete for market share with other companies, including other Licensed Producers,
which may have longer operating histories and more financial resources, manufacturing and marketing experience than the Company 
 The Company does
and expects to continue to face intense competition from other Licensed Producers and companies, some of which can be expected to have longer operating histories and more financial resources, manufacturing and marketing experience than the Company.
Increased competition by larger and better financed competitors could materially and adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. 

In addition, there has been and will likely continue to be industry consolidation, resulting in the creation of larger companies with financial resources,
manufacturing and marketing capabilities, who may have or develop product offerings that are greater than those of the Company. As a result of this competition, the Company may be unable to maintain its operations or develop them as currently
proposed on terms it considers acceptable or at all. Increased competition by larger, better-financed competitors with geographic advantages could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of
operations. 
 The number of licences granted and the number of Licensed Producers ultimately authorized by Health Canada could also have an impact on the
operations of the Company. The Company expects to face additional competition from new market entrants that are granted licences under the ACMPR or existing licence holders which are not yet active in the industry. If a significant number of new
licences are granted by Health Canada in the near term, the Company may experience increased competition for market share and may experience downward price pressure on its products as new entrants increase production. 

The Company also faces competition from illegal dispensaries and the black market that are unlicensed and unregulated, and that are selling cannabis and
cannabis products, including products with higher concentrations of active ingredients, and using delivery methods, including edibles, that the Company is prohibited from offering to individuals as they are not currently permitted by the ACMPR. Any
inability or unwillingness of law enforcement authorities to enforce existing laws prohibiting the unlicensed cultivation and sale of cannabis and cannabis-based products could result in the perpetuation of the black market for cannabis and/or have
a material adverse effect on the perception of cannabis use. Any or all of these events could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

If the number of users of cannabis for medical purposes in Canada increases, or if the legalization of cannabis for recreational purposes is implemented, the
demand for cannabis products generally will likely increase and the Company expects that competition will become more intense, as current and future competitors begin to offer an increasing number of diversified products. To remain competitive, the
Company will require a continued high level of investment in research and development, sales and patient support. The Company may not have sufficient resources to maintain research and development, sales and patient support efforts on a competitive
basis which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 
 As well, the legal
landscape for medical and recreational cannabis is changing internationally. More countries have passed laws that allow for the production and distribution of cannabis for medical purposes in some form or another. The Company has some international
strategic alliances in place, which may be affected if more countries legalize medical cannabis. Increased international competition and limitations placed on the Company by Canadian regulations might lower the demand for the Company’s products
on a global scale. 

  
 18 













 The Company’s expansion efforts may not be successful 

There is no guarantee that the Company’s intentions to acquire and/or construct additional cannabis production and manufacturing facilities in Canada and
in other jurisdictions with federal legal cannabis markets, and to expand the Company’s marketing and sales initiatives will be successful. Any such activities will require, among other things, various regulatory approvals, licences and permits
(such as additional site licences from Health Canada under the ACMPR, as applicable) and there is no guarantee that all required approvals, licences and permits will be obtained in a timely fashion or at all. There is also no guarantee that the
Company will be able to complete any of the foregoing activities as anticipated or at all. The failure of the Company to successfully execute its expansion strategy (including receiving required regulatory approvals and permits) could adversely
affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations and may result in the Company failing to meet anticipated or future demand for its cannabis-based pharmaceutical products, when and if it arises. 

The legalization of cannabis for recreational purposes may not be implemented as anticipated or at all and, if implemented, differing approaches to the
distribution and sales by the provinces and territories of Canada may impose barriers to participation by the Company in any recreational cannabis market, and may also result in changes to the current regulatory regime providing access to cannabis
for medical purposes 
 The Government of Canada has provided guidance that, subject to Parliamentary approval and Royal Assent, it intends to
provide regulated and restricted access to cannabis pursuant to the Cannabis Act by no later than July 2018, however there remains no assurance that the legalization of cannabis by the Government of Canada will occur as anticipated or at all. In
particular, on December 20, 2017 the Prime Minister of Canada communicated that the Government of Canada intends to legalize cannabis for recreational purposes in the summer of 2018, despite previous reports of a July 1, 2018 deadline.

 Health Canada’s proposed approach to the regulation of cannabis (described under “Description of the Business—Expected
Legalization of Recreational Cannabis in Canada”) includes proposals relating to cannabis for medical purposes and health products containing cannabis. Such proposals, if implemented, could result in changes to the current regulatory regime
under the ACMPR, which may impact the operations of Licensed Producers or affect the Canadian medical cannabis industry generally. Any such regulatory changes could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of
operations. 
 In addition, if the Cannabis Act comes into effect, there is no guarantee that provincial legislation regulating the distribution and sale of
cannabis for recreational purposes will be enacted according to the terms announced by such provinces, or at all, or that any such legislation, if enacted, will create the opportunities for growth anticipated by the Company. For example, the
Provinces of Ontario (Canada’s most populous province), Québec and New Brunswick have announced sales and distribution models that would create government-controlled monopolies over the legal retail and distribution of cannabis for
recreational purposes in such provinces, which could limit the Company’s opportunities in those provinces. 
 The Company may be unable to
attract or retain key personnel with sufficient experience in the medical cannabis industry, and may prove unable to attract, develop, and retain additional employees required for the Company’s development and future success 

The success of the Company is currently largely dependent on the performance of its management team (collectively, “Key Persons”). The
Company’s future success depends on its continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. Qualified individuals are in high demand, and the Company may incur significant costs to attract and
retain them. In addition, the Company’s lean management structure may be strained as the Company pursues growth opportunities in the future. The loss of the services of a Key Person, or an inability to attract other suitably qualified persons
when needed, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to execute on its business plan and strategy, and the Company may be unable to find adequate replacements on a timely basis, or at all. MedReleaf does not currently
maintain key-person insurance on the lives of any of its Key Persons.

 Further, as a Licensed Producer, directors and officers of the Company are subject to a security clearance
by Health Canada. Under the ACMPR a security clearance cannot be valid for more than five years and must be renewed before the expiry of a current security clearance. There is no assurance that any of the Company’s existing personnel who
presently or may in the future require a security clearance will be able to obtain or renew such clearances or that new personnel who require a security clearance will be able to obtain one. A failure by a person required to maintain or renew his or
her security clearance, would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if a Key Person who requires a security clearance leaves the Company, and the Company is
unable to find a suitable replacement that has a security clearance required by the ACMPR in a timely manner, or at all, there could occur a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Significant interruption in the Company’s access to certain key inputs such as raw materials, electricity, water and other utilities may impair its
cannabis growing operation 
 The Company’s business is dependent on a number of key inputs and their related costs including raw materials and
supplies related to its growing operations, as well as electricity, water and other utilities. Any significant interruption, price increase or negative change in the availability or economics of the supply chain for key inputs and, in particular,
rising or volatile energy costs could have a material adverse effect on MedReleaf’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company’s operations would be significantly affected by a prolonged power outage.

 The ability of the Company to compete and grow cannabis is dependent on it having access, at a reasonable cost and in a timely manner, to labour,
equipment, parts and components. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in maintaining its required supply of labour, equipment, parts and components. It is also possible that the final costs of the major equipment
contemplated by the Company’s capital expenditure program relating to the ongoing development and expansion of its facilities may be significantly greater than anticipated by the Company’s management, in which circumstance the Company may
curtail, or extend the timeframes for completing, such capital expenditure plans. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

MedReleaf has expanded and intends to further expand its business and operations into jurisdictions outside of Canada, and there are risks associated
with doing so 
 The Company has expanded and may in the future further expand its operations and business into jurisdictions outside of Canada.
There can be no assurance that any market for the Company’s products will develop in any such foreign jurisdiction. The Company may face new or unexpected risks or significantly increase its exposure to one or more existing risk factors,
including economic instability, changes in laws and regulations and the effects of competition. These factors may limit the Company’s capability to successfully expand its operations and may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business, financial condition and results of operations. 
 The Company may enter into strategic alliances, or expand the scope of currently existing
relationships with third parties with whom it believes will have a beneficial impact on its business, financial condition and results of operation and there are risks associated with such activities 

The Company currently has, and may in the future enter into, strategic alliances with third parties that the Company believes will complement or augment its
existing business. MedReleaf’s ability to complete strategic alliances is dependent upon, and may be limited by, the availability of suitable candidates and capital. In addition, strategic alliances could present unforeseen integration
obstacles or costs, may not enhance our business, and may involve risks that could adversely affect the Company, including significant amounts of management time that may be diverted from operations in order to pursue and complete such transactions
or maintain such strategic alliances. Future strategic alliances could result in the incurrence of additional debt, costs and contingent liabilities, and there can be no assurance that future strategic alliances will achieve, or that the
Company’s existing strategic alliances will continue to achieve, the expected benefits to the Company’s business or that the Company will be able to consummate future strategic alliances on satisfactory terms, or at all. Any of the
foregoing could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

  
 20 













 The Company is subject to risks inherent in an agricultural business 

The Company’s business involves the growing of cannabis for medical purposes, which is an agricultural product. As such, the business is subject to the
risks inherent in the agricultural business, such as insects, plant diseases and similar agricultural risks. Although MedReleaf grows its products indoors under climate controlled conditions and all growing conditions are carefully monitored with
trained personnel, there can be no assurance that natural elements, such as insects and plant diseases, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

MedReleaf may not be able to transport its medical cannabis products to patients in a safe and efficient manner 

Due to its direct-to-patient shipping model, the Company depends on fast and
efficient third party transportation services to distribute its products. Any prolonged disruption of third party transportation services could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of
operations. Rising costs associated with third party transportation services used by the Company to ship its products may also adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Due to the nature of MedReleaf’s products, security of the product during transportation to and from the Company’s facilities is of the utmost
concern. A breach of security during transport or delivery could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Any breach of the security measures during transport or delivery,
including any failure to comply with recommendations or requirements of Health Canada, could also have an impact on the Company’s ability to continue operating under the MedReleaf Licences or the prospect of renewing the MedReleaf Licences.

 The Company will seek to maintain adequate insurance coverage in respect of the risks faced by it, however, insurance premiums for such insurance
may not continue to be commercially justifiable and there may be coverage limitations and other exclusions which may not be sufficient to cover potential liabilities faced by the Company 

The Company has insurance to protect its assets, operations and employees. While the Company believes its insurance coverage addresses all material risks to
which it is exposed and is adequate and customary in its current state of operations, such insurance is subject to coverage limits and exclusions and may not be available for the risks and hazards to which the Company is exposed. In addition, no
assurance can be given that such insurance will be adequate to cover the Company’s liabilities or will be generally available in the future or, if available, that premiums will be commercially justifiable. If the Company were to incur
substantial liability and such damages were not covered by insurance or were in excess of policy limits, or if the Company were to incur such liability at a time when it is not able to obtain liability insurance, there could be a material adverse
effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

  
 21 













 If MedReleaf is not able to comply with all safety, health and environmental regulations applicable to
its operations and industry, it may be held liable for any breaches thereof 
 Safety, health and environmental legislation affects nearly all
aspects of the Company’s operations, including product development, working conditions, waste disposal, emission controls and the maintenance of air and water quality standards and land reclamation and, with respect to environmental regulation,
imposes limitations on the generation, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. Compliance with safety, health and environmental legislation can require significant expenditures, and failure to comply with such safety,
health and environmental legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties, the temporary or permanent suspension of operations, clean-up costs resulting from contaminated properties, damages and
the loss of important permits. Exposure to these liabilities arises not only from the Company’s existing operations, but from operations that may in the future be closed or sold to third parties. The Company could also be held liable for worker
exposure to hazardous substances and for accidents causing injury or death. There can be no assurances that the Company will at all times be in compliance with all safety, health and environmental regulations or that steps to achieve compliance
would not materially adversely affect the Company’s business. 
 Safety, health and environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will
require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for
companies and their officers, directors and employees. The Company is not able to determine the specific impact that future changes in safety, health and environmental laws and regulations may have on its operations and activities, and its resulting
financial position; however, the Company anticipates that capital expenditures and operating expenses may increase in the future as a result of the implementation of new and increasingly stringent safety, health and environmental regulation. Further
changes in safety, health and environmental laws, new information on existing safety, health and environmental conditions or other events, including legal proceedings based upon such conditions or an inability to obtain necessary permits, may
require increased financial reserves, compliance expenditures or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

The Company may be subject to product liability claims 

As a manufacturer and distributor of products designed to be ingested by humans, MedReleaf faces an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims,
regulatory action and litigation if its products are alleged to have caused significant loss or injury. In addition, the manufacture and sale of cannabis products for medical purposes involves the risk of injury to consumers due to tampering by
unauthorized third parties or product contamination. Previously unknown adverse reactions resulting from human consumption of cannabis products alone or in combination with other medications or substances could occur. The Company may be subject to
various product liability claims, including, among others, that the products produced by the Company caused or contributed to injury or illness, include inadequate instructions for use or include inadequate warnings concerning possible side effects
or interactions with other substances. A product liability claim or regulatory action against the Company could result in increased costs, could adversely affect the Company’s reputation and goodwill with its patients and consumers generally,
and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurances that MedReleaf will be able to obtain or maintain product liability insurance on acceptable terms or
with adequate coverage against potential liabilities. Such insurance is expensive and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage on reasonable terms or to otherwise
protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of products. 
 The Company’s medical cannabis
products may be subject to recalls for a variety of reasons 
 Manufacturers and distributors of products are sometimes subject to the recall or
return of their products for a variety of reasons, including product defects, such as contamination, unintended harmful side effects or interactions with other substances, packaging safety and inadequate or inaccurate labeling disclosure. If any of
the products produced by the Company are recalled due to an alleged product defect or for any other reason, the Company could be required to incur the unexpected expense of the recall and any legal proceedings that might arise in connection with the
recall. The Company may lose a significant amount of sales and may not be able to replace those sales at an acceptable margin or at all. In addition, a product recall may require significant management attention. Although MedReleaf has detailed
procedures in place for testing finished products, there can be no assurance that any quality, potency or contamination problems will be detected in time to avoid unforeseen product recalls, regulatory action or lawsuits, whether frivolous or
otherwise. Additionally, if any of the products produced by MedReleaf were subject to recall, the reputation and goodwill of that product and/or the Company could be harmed. A recall for any of the foregoing reasons could lead to decreased demand
for products produced by MedReleaf and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, product recalls may lead to increased scrutiny of the operations of MedReleaf by
Health Canada or other regulatory agencies, requiring further management attention, increased compliance costs and potential legal fees, fines, penalties and other expenses. Furthermore, any product recall affecting the medical cannabis industry
more broadly could lead consumers to lose confidence in the safety and security of the products sold by Licensed Producers generally, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of
operations. 

  
 22 













 MedReleaf may not be able to successfully develop new products or find a market for their sale

 The medical cannabis industry is, and the recreational cannabis industry (if implemented) will be, in its early stages of development and it is
likely that the Company, and its competitors, will seek to introduce new products in the future. In attempting to keep pace with any new market developments, the Company may need to expend significant amounts of capital in order to successfully
develop and generate revenues from new products introduced by the Company. As well, the Company may be required to obtain additional regulatory approvals from Health Canada and any other applicable regulatory authority, which may take significant
amounts of time. The Company may not be successful in developing effective and safe new products, bringing such products to market in time to be effectively commercialized, or obtaining any required regulatory approvals, which, together with any
capital expenditures made in the course of such product development and regulatory approval processes, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

The Company may experience breaches of security at its facilities or in respect of electronic documents and data storage and may face risks related to
breaches of applicable privacy laws 
 Given the nature of the Company’s product and its lack of legal availability outside of channels approved
by the Government of Canada, as well as the concentration of inventory in its facilities, despite meeting or exceeding Health Canada’s security requirements, there remains a risk of shrinkage as well as theft. A security breach at one of the
Company’s facilities could expose the Company to additional liability and to potentially costly litigation, increase expenses relating to the resolution and future prevention of these breaches and may deter potential patients from choosing the
Company’s products. 
 In addition, MedReleaf collects and stores personal information about its patients and is responsible for protecting that
information from privacy breaches. A privacy breach may occur through procedural or process failure, information technology malfunction, or deliberate unauthorized intrusions. Theft of data for competitive purposes, particularly patient lists and
preferences, is an ongoing risk whether perpetrated via employee collusion or negligence or through deliberate cyber-attack. Any such theft or privacy breach would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition
and results of operations. 
 Furthermore, there are a number of federal and provincial laws protecting the confidentiality of certain patient health
information, including patient records, and restricting the use and disclosure of that protected information. In particular, the privacy rules under the Personal Information Protection and Electronics Documents Act (Canada)
(“PIPEDA”), protect medical records and other personal health information by limiting their use and disclosure of health information to the minimum level reasonably necessary to accomplish the intended purpose. If the Company was
found to be in violation of the privacy or security rules under PIPEDA or other laws protecting the confidentiality of patient health information, it could be subject to sanctions and civil or criminal penalties, which could increase its
liabilities, harm its reputation and have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company. 

  
 23 













 The Company may become subject to liability arising from any fraudulent or illegal activity by its
employees, contractors and consultants 
 The Company is exposed to the risk that its employees, independent contractors and consultants may engage
in fraudulent or other illegal activity. Misconduct by these parties could include intentional, reckless and/or negligent conduct or disclosure of unauthorized activities to the Company that violates: (i) government regulations;
(ii) manufacturing standards; (iii) federal and provincial healthcare fraud and abuse laws and regulations; or (iv) laws that require the true, complete and accurate reporting of financial information or data. It is not always
possible for the Company to identify and deter misconduct by its employees and other third parties, and the precautions taken by the Company to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in controlling unknown or unmanaged risks or losses
or in protecting the Company from governmental investigations or other actions or lawsuits stemming from a failure to be in compliance with such laws or regulations. If any such actions are instituted against the Company, and it is not successful in
defending itself or asserting its rights, those actions could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, monetary fines, contractual damages, reputational harm,
diminished profits and future earnings, and curtailment of the Company’s operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

MedReleaf, or the medical cannabis industry more generally, may receive unfavourable publicity or become subject to negative consumer perception

 The Company believes the medical cannabis industry is highly dependent upon consumer perception regarding the medical benefits, safety, efficacy
and quality of the cannabis distributed for medical purposes to such consumers. Consumer perception of MedReleaf’s products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, political
statements both in Canada and in other countries, media attention and other publicity (whether or not accurate or with merit) regarding the consumption of cannabis products for medical purposes, including unexpected safety or efficacy concerns
arising with respect to the products of the Company or its competitors. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings or publicity will be
favourable to the medical cannabis market or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity that are perceived as less
favourable than, or that question, earlier research reports, findings or publicity could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s products and the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company. The
Company’s dependence upon consumer perceptions means that adverse scientific research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity (whether or not accurate or with merit), could have an adverse
effect on any demand for the Company’s products which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, adverse publicity reports or other media attention regarding the
safety, efficacy and quality of cannabis for medical purposes in general, or the Company’s products specifically, or associating the consumption of cannabis with illness or other negative effects or events, could have such a material adverse
effect. Such adverse publicity reports or other media attention could arise even if the adverse effects associated with such products resulted from consumers’ failure to consume such products legally, appropriately or as directed. 

The Company may not be able to develop and maintain lasting consumer relationships with patients 

MedReleaf’s success depends on its ability to attract and retain patients. There are many factors which could impact the Company’s ability to attract
and retain patients, including but not limited to the Company’s brand awareness, its ability to continually produce desirable and effective cannabis products, the successful implementation of the Company’s patient-acquisition plan and the
continued growth in the aggregate number of patients selecting cannabis for medical purposes as a treatment option. The Company’s failure to acquire and retain patients could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations. 

  
 24 













 MedReleaf may be unable to expand its operations in accordance with patient demand or to manage its
operations beyond their current scale 
 The Company’s revenue has grown in recent years. The Company’s ability to sustain its growth will
depend on a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, including, but not limited to, the availability of sufficient capital on suitable terms, changes in laws and regulations respecting the production of cannabis
products and competition from other Licensed Producers and the black market, and the ability or authorization to produce sufficient volumes of the Company’s medical cannabis products to match patient demand. In addition, the Company is subject
to a variety of business risks generally associated with growing companies. Future growth and expansion could place significant strain on the Company’s management personnel and likely will require the Company to recruit additional management
personnel. 
 There can be no assurance that MedReleaf will be able to manage its expanding operations (including any acquisitions) effectively, that it
will be able to sustain or accelerate its growth or that such growth, if achieved, will result in profitable operations, that it will be able to attract and retain sufficient management personnel necessary for continued growth, or that it will be
able to successfully make strategic investments or acquisitions. The failure to accomplish any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Demand for medical cannabis products is dependent on a number of social, political and economic factors that are beyond the Company’s control. While the
Company believes that demand for such products will continue to grow, there is no assurance that such increase in demand will occur, that the Company will benefit from any demand increase, or that its business will be profitable. If the Company is
unable to demonstrate sustained profitability, the value of the Common Shares may significantly decrease. 
 MedReleaf may not be able to secure
adequate or reliable sources of funding required to operate its business and meet consumer demand for its products 
 There is no guarantee that the
Company will be able to achieve its business objectives. The continued development of the Company may require additional financing. The failure to raise such capital could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of current business objectives
or the Company ceasing to carry on business. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favourable to the Company. In addition,
from time to time, the Company may enter into transactions to acquire assets or the shares of other corporations. These transactions may be financed wholly or partially with debt, which may increase the Company’s debt levels above industry
standards. Any debt financing secured in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for the Company to obtain additional capital
and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Debt financings may also contain provisions which, if breached, may entitle lenders or their agents to accelerate repayment of loans and/or realize upon security over the assets
of the Company, and there is no assurance that the Company would be able to repay such loans in such an event or prevent the enforcement of security granted pursuant to such debt financing. 

The Credit Facilities impose limitations on the types of transactions or financial arrangements that the Company may engage in 

The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants including, subject to certain exceptions, restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur
indebtedness, grant liens, make corporate changes, dispose of assets, make investments including acquisitions and pay dividends. There are also limitations on the scope of the Company’s business. In addition to the foregoing restrictions, the
Company must maintain certain financial ratios. Events beyond the Company’s control, including changes in general economic and business conditions, may affect the Company’s ability to observe or satisfy these covenants, which could result
in a default under the Credit Agreement. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs, the agent could elect to declare all principal amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities at such time, together with accrued interest, to be
immediately due. In such an event, the Company may not have sufficient funds to repay amounts owing under the Credit Agreement. 

  
 25 













 Management has limited experience with the requirements and demands of managing a publicly-traded
company 
 The individuals who constitute MedReleaf’s senior management team have had limited experience in managing a publicly-traded entity.
The Company is required to have control systems and procedures required to operate as a public company, and these systems and procedures could place a significant strain on the Company’s management systems, infrastructure and other resources.
The Company can provide no assurances that its management’s past experience will be sufficient to enable the Company to successfully operate as a public company. Although management has engaged a number of professional service providers to
assist the Company with complying with its continuous disclosure, filing, and other requirements applicable to public entities, if management of the Company is unable to satisfactorily manage the Company as a public entity and ensure that it remains
in compliance with all continuous disclosure and other requirements applicable to public entities, there could occur a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Management may not be able to successfully maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting 

Proper systems of internal controls over financial accounting and disclosure are critical to the operation of a public company. However, the Company does not
expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance
that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent
limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Due to the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected in a timely manner or at all. If the Company cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, its reputation and operating results could be materially adversely
affected, which could cause investors to lose confidence in the Company’s reported financial information, which in turn could result in a reduction in the value of the Common Shares. 

Requirements to comply with public company reporting obligations, as well as those of any stock exchange, may strain the Company’s systems and
resources 
 As a public entity, the Company is subject to the reporting requirements and related rules and regulations of the Canadian provincial
securities regulators, as well as the rules of any stock exchange on which the Company’s securities may be listed from time to time. These requirements may place a strain on the Company’s systems and resources. The applicable securities
legislation requires that MedReleaf file annual, quarterly and event-driven reports with respect to its business and financial condition and operations, and requires that MedReleaf maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal
control over financial reporting. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, significant resources and management oversight are required. The Company can provide no assurance that the
procedures and processes adopted by it will be sufficient to allow it to satisfy its obligations as a public company on a timely basis. In addition, sustaining MedReleaf’s growth also requires it to commit additional management, operational and
financial resources to identify new professionals to join the Company and to maintain appropriate operational and financial systems to adequately support expansion. These activities may divert management’s attention from other business
concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, financial performance and cash flows. 

  
 26 













 The Company may not be able to successfully identify and execute future acquisitions or dispositions,
or to successfully manage the impacts of such transactions on its operations 
 Although there is no present intention to undertake any of the
following transactions (other than the Arrangement), material acquisitions, dispositions and other strategic transactions involve a number of risks, including: (i) potential disruption of the Company’s ongoing business;
(ii) distraction of management; (iii) the Company may become more financially leveraged; (iv) the anticipated benefits and cost savings of those transactions may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than
expected; (v) increasing the scope and complexity of the Company’s operations, and (vi) loss or reduction of control over certain of the Company’s assets. 

The presence of one or more material liabilities of an acquired company that are unknown to the Company at the time of acquisition could have a material
adverse effect on the results of operations, business prospects and financial condition of the Company. A strategic transaction may result in a significant change in the nature of the Company’s business, operations and strategy. In addition,
the Company may encounter unforeseen obstacles or costs in implementing a strategic transaction or integrating any acquired business into the Company’s operations. 

Conflicts of interest may arise between MedReleaf and its directors and officers as a result of other business activities undertaken by such individuals

 The Company may be subject to various potential conflicts of interest because of the fact that some of its directors and executive officers may be
engaged in a range of business activities. In addition, the Company’s directors and executive officers may devote time to their outside business interests, so long as such activities do not materially or adversely interfere with their duties to
the Company and subject to any contractual restrictions restricting such activities. In some cases, the Company’s executive officers and directors may have fiduciary obligations associated with business interests that interfere with their
ability to devote time to the Company’s business and affairs, which could adversely affect the Company’s operations. These business interests could require significant time and attention of the Company’s executive officers and
directors. 
 Conflicts of interest, if any, will be subject to the procedures and remedies provided under applicable laws and policies of the Company. For
example, a director who has a material interest in a matter before the Board or any committee on which he or she serves is required to disclose such interest as soon as the director becomes aware of it and absent himself or herself from the meeting
while discussions and voting with respect to the matter are taking place. In accordance with applicable laws, the directors of the Company are required to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company. 

The Company may become involved in regulatory or agency proceedings, investigations and audits 

The Company’s business requires compliance with many laws and regulations. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could subject the Company to
regulatory or agency proceedings or investigations and could also lead to damage awards, fines and penalties. The Company may become involved in a number of government or agency proceedings, investigations and audits. The outcome of any regulatory
or agency proceedings, investigations, audits, and other contingencies could harm the Company’s reputation, require the Company to take, or refrain from taking, actions that could harm its operations or require the Company to pay substantial
amounts of money, harming its financial condition. There can be no assurance that any pending or future regulatory or agency proceedings, investigations and audits will not result in substantial costs or a diversion of management’s attention
and resources or have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation. 

  
 27 













 The Company may be subject to litigation in the ordinary course of its business 

The Company may become party to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business which could adversely affect its business. Should any
litigation in which the Company becomes involved be determined against the Company, such a decision could adversely affect the Company’s ability to continue operating and the value of the Common Shares and could use significant resources. Even
if the Company is involved in litigation and wins, litigation can redirect significant Company resources, including the time and attention of management and available working capital. Litigation may also create a negative perception of
MedReleaf’s brand. 
 Certain events or developments in the medical cannabis industry more generally may impact MedReleaf’s reputation

 Damage to the Company’s reputation can be the result of the actual or perceived occurrence of any number of events, and could include any
negative publicity, whether true or not. As a producer and distributor of a controlled substance in Canada that has been commonly associated with various other narcotics, violence and criminal activities, there is a risk that our business might
attract negative publicity. There is also risk that the action(s) of other Licensed Producers, or the action(s) of other companies and service providers in the cannabis industry, may negatively affect the reputation of the industry as a whole and
thereby negatively impact the reputation of the Company. The increased usage of social media and other web-based tools used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other
users has made it increasingly easier for individuals and groups to communicate and share opinions and views in regards to the Company and its activities, whether true or not and the medical cannabis industry in general, whether true or not.
Although the Company believes that it operates in a manner that is respectful to all stakeholders and that it takes care in protecting its image and reputation, the Company does not ultimately have direct control over how it or the medical cannabis
industry is perceived by others. Reputation loss may result in decreased investor confidence, increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations and an impediment to the Company’s overall ability to advance its business
strategy and realize on its growth prospects, thereby having a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 

Third parties with whom the Company does business may perceive themselves as being exposed to reputational risk as a result of their relationship with
the Company 
 The parties with which the Company does business may perceive that they are exposed to reputational risk as a result of the
Company’s medical cannabis business activities. Failure to establish or maintain business relationships due to reputational risk arising in connection with the nature of the Company’s business could have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. 
 The Company may be subject to risks related to the protection and
enforcement of its intellectual property rights, and may become subject to allegations that the Company is in violation of intellectual property rights of third parties 

The ownership and protection of our intellectual property rights is a significant aspect of the Company’s future success. Currently the Company relies on
trade secrets, technical know-how and proprietary information to protect its intellectual property. The Company also attempts to protect its intellectual property by entering into confidentiality agreements
with parties that have access to it, such as business partners, collaborators, employees and consultants. Any of these parties may breach these agreements and the Company may not have adequate remedies for any specific breach. In addition, the
Company’s trade secrets and technical know-how, which are not protected by patents, may otherwise become known to or be independently developed by competitors, in which event the Company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. 

  
 28 













 Unauthorized parties may attempt to replicate or otherwise obtain and use the Company’s products, trade
secrets, technical know-how and proprietary information that are not protected by patents. Policing the unauthorized use of the Company’s current or future intellectual property rights could be difficult,
expensive, time-consuming and unpredictable, as may be enforcing these rights against unauthorized use by others. Identifying unauthorized use of intellectual property rights is difficult as the Company may be unable to effectively monitor and
evaluate the products being distributed by its competitors, including parties such as unlicensed dispensaries, and the processes used to produce such products. In addition, in any infringement proceeding, some or all of the Company’s current or
future trademarks, patents or other intellectual property rights or other proprietary know-how, or arrangements or agreements seeking to protect the same for the benefit of the Company, may be found invalid,
unenforceable, anti-competitive or not infringed. An adverse result in any litigation or defense proceedings could put one or more of the Company’s current or future trademarks, patents or other intellectual property rights at risk of being
invalidated or interpreted narrowly and could put existing intellectual property applications at risk of not being issued. Any or all of these events could materially and adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations
of the Company. 
 In addition, other parties may claim that the Company’s products infringe on their proprietary and perhaps patent protected rights.
Such claims, whether or not meritorious, may result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources, legal fees, result in injunctions, temporary restraining orders and/or require the payment of damages. As well, the Company may
need to obtain licenses from third parties who allege that the Company has infringed on their lawful rights. However, such licenses may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. In addition, the Company may not be able to obtain
or utilize on terms that are favorable to it, or at all, licenses or other rights with respect to intellectual property that it does not own. 

MedReleaf may be subject to risks related to its information technology systems, including cyber-attacks 

The Company has entered into agreements with third parties for hardware, software, telecommunications and other information technology (“IT”)
services in connection with its operations. The Company’s operations depend, in part, on how well it and its suppliers protect networks, equipment, IT systems and software against damage from a number of threats, including, but not limited to,
cable cuts, damage to physical plants, natural disasters, intentional damage and destruction, fire, power loss, hacking, computer viruses, vandalism and theft. The Company’s operations also depend on the timely maintenance, upgrade and
replacement of networks, equipment, IT systems and software, as well as pre-emptive expenses to mitigate the risks of failures. Any of these and other events could result in information system failures, delays
and/or increase in capital expenses. The failure of information systems or a component of information systems could, depending on the nature of any such failure, adversely impact the Company’s reputation and results of operations. 

The Company has not experienced any material losses to date relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches, but there can be no assurance
that the Company will not incur such losses in the future. The Company’s risk and exposure to these matters cannot be fully mitigated because of, among other things, the evolving nature of these threats. As a result, cyber security and the
continued development and enhancement of controls, processes and practices designed to protect systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access is a priority. As cyber threats continue to evolve, the Company
may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance protective measures or to investigate and remediate any security vulnerabilities. 

The Company may face disruption in connection with labour organization efforts 

None of the Company’s employees are currently subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company is currently engaged in a dispute before the AFRAA
Tribunal in connection with an unsuccessful unionization effort by UFCW Canada at the Company’s Markham Facility. See “Legal Proceedings”. 

  
 29 













 Should the Company be unsuccessful before the AFRAA Tribunal, the AFRAA Tribunal may award remedies to UFCW
Canada and/or the employees named in the application, including a declaration that the Company violated its employees’ rights under the AEPA, reinstatement of terminated employees, damages suffered by terminated employees (including for loss of
earnings and/or benefits) and an order that MedReleaf provide UFCW Canada a reasonable opportunity to make representations respecting the terms and conditions of employment of its members. The UFCW Canada has also challenged the constitutionality of
the AEPA arguing that, among other things, it fails to provide a meaningful right for employees subject to the AEPA to bargain collectively. 
 No assurance
can be given that the decision by the AFRAA Tribunal will be favourable to the Company or that the outcome of the application will not adversely impact the Company’s reputation and results of operations. 

If the AFRAA Tribunal decides in favour of the Company, no assurance can be given that there will not occur any further attempts to organize all or part of
the Company’s employees. Although the AEPA does not require an employer to enter into a collective agreement with any employees’ association, employers are required to give an employees’ association (which may be represented by a
union) a reasonable opportunity to make representations respecting the terms and conditions of employment of one or more of its members. 
 Licensed
Producers, including MedReleaf, are constrained by law in their ability to market their products 
 The development of the Company’s business
and operating results may be hindered by applicable restrictions on sales and marketing activities imposed by Health Canada. The regulatory environment in Canada limits the Company’s ability to compete for market share in a manner similar to
other industries. If the Company is unable to effectively market its products and compete for market share, or if the costs of compliance with government legislation and regulation cannot be absorbed through increased selling prices for its
products, the Company’s sales and operating results could be adversely affected. 
 Tax and accounting requirements may change in ways that are
unforeseen to the Company and the Company may face difficulty or be unable to implement and/or comply with any such changes 
 The Company is subject
to numerous tax and accounting requirements, and changes in existing accounting or taxation rules or practices, or varying interpretations of current rules or practices, could have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s financial
results, the manner in which it conducts its business or the marketability of any of its products. In the future, the geographic scope of the Company’s business may expand, and such expansion will require the Company to comply with the tax laws
and regulations of multiple jurisdictions. Requirements as to taxation vary substantially among jurisdictions. Complying with the tax laws of these jurisdictions can be time consuming and expensive and could potentially subject the Company to
penalties and fees in the future if the Company were to inadvertently fail to comply. In the event the Company was to inadvertently fail to comply with applicable tax laws, this could have a material adverse effect on the business, results of
operations and financial condition of the Company. 
 On March 27, 2018, the Federal government of Canada introduced the Budget Implementation Bill,
2018, No. 1, (amendments to the Excise Act, 2001 cannabis taxation), which proposed to implement a new framework for the taxation of cannabis, the majority of which had been previously published for consultation on
November 10, 2017, with some modifications. The proposed rules would effectively place cannabis producers within the existing rules that currently apply excise duties on tobacco, wine and spirits producers under the Excise Act, 2001
(Canada), with modifications as applicable. These rules include a new tax licensing regime for cannabis producers, stamping and marking rules, ongoing reporting requirements, and applicable excise duties payable by licensed cannabis producers on
both recreational cannabis products, in additional to goods and services tax/harmonized sales tax. The cannabis excise duty framework is proposed to generally come into force on the date that legal cannabis for
non-medical purposes becomes accessible for retail sale under the proposed Cannabis Act. The government has indicated that the implementation date may be postponed to the autumn of 2018. The rates of the
excise duty for cannabis products delivered in each province and territory and relevant exemptions from the excise tax are still subject to some uncertainty, and will only become known with precision when the law and regulations come into force.

 There can be no certainty that the Arrangement will be completed 

As more particularly described under “General Development of the Business – Developments Subsequent to the Financial Year-ended
March 31, 2018”, the Company has entered into the Arrangement Agreement with Aurora, pursuant to which Aurora will acquire all of the outstanding Common Shares. Completion of the Arrangement is subject to certain
conditions that may be outside the control of the Company, including without limitation, the requisite approvals of the Company’s and Aurora’s shareholders, the receipt of court and regulatory approvals, approval of the TSX and required
third party approvals. There can be no assurance that these conditions will be satisfied or that the Arrangement will be completed as currently contemplated, or at all. 

If the Arrangement is not completed, the market price of the Common Shares may decline and its business may suffer. In addition, MedReleaf will remain liable
for significant consulting, accounting and legal costs relating to the Arrangement and will not realize anticipated synergies, growth opportunities and other benefits of the Arrangement. If the Arrangement is delayed, the achievement of synergies
and the realization of growth opportunities could be delayed and may not be available to the same extent as anticipated. Additionally, if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances, the Company would be required to pay a
termination fee of $80,000,000 in addition to $15,000,000 as reimbursement of certain expenses of Aurora, which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position. These potential payment obligations may also discourage other
parties from attempting to acquire Common Shares, even if they might be willing to offer greater value than that offered under the Arrangement. 
 In
addition, since the completion of the Arrangement is subject to uncertainty, officers and employees of the Company may experience uncertainty about their future roles with the Company. This may adversely affect the Company’s ability to attract
or retain key management and personnel in the period until the Arrangement is completed or terminated. 
 If the Arrangement is completed, the
integration of Aurora and the Company may not occur as planned 
 The Arrangement Agreement has been entered into with the expectation that its
successful completion will result in enhanced production capacity, increased earnings and cost savings by taking advantage of operating and other synergies to be realized from the consolidation of Aurora and the Company and enhanced growth
opportunities for the combined company. These anticipated benefits will depend in part on whether Aurora and the Company’s operations can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner. Most operational and strategic decisions and certain
staffing decisions with respect to the combined company have not yet been made. These decisions and the integration of the two companies will present challenges to management, including the integration of systems and personnel of the two companies,
and special risks, including possible unanticipated liabilities, unanticipated costs, and the loss of key employees. The performance of operations acquired from the Company in the Arrangement after completion of the Arrangement could be adversely
affected if the combined company cannot retain key employees to assist in the integration and operation of the Company and Aurora. As a result of these factors, it is possible that the cost reductions and synergies expected from the combination of
Aurora and the Company will not be realized.

 Risks Related to Ownership of Common Shares 

The price of the Common Shares in public markets may experience significant fluctuations 

The market price for Common Shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the
Company’s control, including the following: (i) actual or anticipated fluctuations in the Company’s quarterly results of operations; (ii) recommendations by securities research analysts; (iii) changes in the economic
performance or market valuations of other issuers that investors deem comparable to the Company; (iv) addition or departure of the Company’s executive officers and other key personnel; (v) release or expiration of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on Common Shares; (vi) sales or perceived sales of Common Shares; (vii) significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or
capital commitments by or involving the Company or its competitors; and (viii) news reports relating to trends, concerns, technological or competitive developments, regulatory changes and other related issues in the Company’s industry or
target markets. 
 Financial markets have recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices
of equity securities of public entities and that have, in many cases, been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such entities. Accordingly, the market price of the Common Shares may decline even if the
Company’s operating results or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses. As
well, certain institutional investors may base their investment decisions on consideration of the Company’s environmental, governance and social practices and performance against such institutions’ respective investment guidelines and
criteria, and failure to satisfy such criteria may result in limited or no investment in the Common Shares by those institutions, which could materially adversely affect the trading price of the Common Shares. There can be no assurance that
continuing fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue for a protracted period of time, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial
condition and results of operations, as well as the trading price of the Common Shares. 
 Holders of Common Shares may be subject to dilution
resulting from future offerings of Common Shares by the Company 
 If the Arrangement is not completed for any reason, MedReleaf may in the future
raise additional funds by issuing equity securities. Holders of Common Shares will have no pre-emptive rights in connection with such further issues. The Board of Directors has the discretion to determine if
an issuance of Common Shares is warranted, the price at which such issuance is effected and the other terms of issue of Common Shares. Such additional equity issuances could, depending on the price at which such securities are issued, substantially
dilute the interests of the holders of Common Shares. 
 It is not anticipated that any dividend will be paid to holders of Common Shares for the
foreseeable future 
 No dividends on the Common Shares have been paid to date. The Company anticipates that, for the foreseeable future, it will
retain future earnings and other cash resources for the operation and development of its business. Payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors after taking into account many factors, including the
Company’s earnings, operating results, financial condition, current and anticipated cash needs, and restrictions in financing agreements. 

  
 32 













 Significant holders of the Common Shares, may seek to sell all or a portion of their shareholdings in
the future, which could reduce the market price of the Common Shares 
 Sales of a substantial number of Common Shares in the public market could
occur at any time. These sales, or the market perception that the holders of a large number of Common Shares intend to sell Common Shares, could significantly reduce the market price of the Common Shares. The Company cannot predict the effect, if
any, that future public sales of its outstanding securities or the availability of its outstanding securities for sale will have on the market price of the Common Shares. If the market price of the Common Shares were to drop as a result, this might
impede the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and might cause remaining holders of Common Shares to lose all or part of their investments. 

Holders of options to purchase Common Shares will have an immediate income inclusion for tax purposes when they exercise their options (that is, tax is not
deferred until they sell the underlying Common Shares). As a result, these holders may need to sell Common Shares purchased on the exercise of options in the same year that they exercise their options. This might result in a greater number of Common
Shares being sold in the public market, and fewer long-term holdings of Common Shares by management of the Company and other employees. 

DIVIDENDS 
 MedReleaf has not paid
dividends since the date of its incorporation and it does not expect to pay dividends in the near future. The Board of Directors will determine if and when dividends should be declared and paid in the future and any such determination will be based
on the Company’s financial position, business environment, operating results, capital requirements, any contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and any other factors that the Board may deem relevant at the time. 

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE 
 As of
the date hereof, the authorized capital of the Company consists of: (i) an unlimited number of Common Shares of which 101,329,195 Common Shares are issued and outstanding; and (ii) 3,997.34 Class B Shares, all of which were issued and, on
March 23, 2018, converted into 464,054 Common Shares in accordance with their terms. No additional Class B Shares may be issued. 
 The holders of
the Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of, attend and vote, on the basis of one vote in respect of each Common Share held, at all meetings of holders of shares. The holders of the Common Shares are entitled to receive any dividends
declared by the Board in respect of the Common Shares. The holders of the Common Shares are entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, the Company’s remaining property and assets available for distribution upon the liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary. 
 The Company adopted an incentive
stock option plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) under which options may be granted to employees, officers, and consultants, enabling them to acquire Common Shares. In addition, prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company had
granted options to purchase Common Shares to certain officers and employees pursuant to option agreements (the “Legacy Option Agreements”). The maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance under the Stock Option
Plan and all other security-based compensation arrangements (including the Legacy Option Agreements) at any given time cannot exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. As of the date hereof, there are options outstanding under the
Stock Option Plan and the Legacy Option Agreements to purchase, in aggregate, up to 5,918,871 Common Shares. 
 In addition, the Company has Warrants
outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 2,875,000 Common Shares at an exercise price of $34.50 per Common Share.

	(3)	 In connection with the Arrangement Agreement, Aurora entered into voting agreements (the “Voting
Agreements”) with certain shareholders, directors and officers of the Company (the “Locked-up Persons”) pursuant to which the Locked-up
Persons agreed to vote in favour of the Arrangement. The Voting Agreements also, among other things, requires the Locked-up Persons to deliver proxies to MedReleaf in connection with the meeting of MedReleaf
shareholders to approve the Arrangement, prohibits the Locked-up Persons from exercising dissent rights in connection with the Arrangement or contest the approval of the Arrangement, prohibits the Locked-up Persons from taking actions that could adversely affect the success of the Arrangement, prohibits the Locked-up Persons from taking actions regarding an alternative
acquisition proposal to the Arrangement, and impose a contractual hold period on any securities of MedReleaf held by the Locked-up Persons other than pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement or the Voting
Agreements, provided that any sales must be made in an orderly fashion as market conditions permit, such restriction expiring upon the earlier of the termination of the Voting Agreements and the obtaining of a final order from the Ontario Superior
Court of Justice (Commercial List) in respect of the Arrangement.

 Deborah Rosati is a director of Sears Canada Inc. which applied for and, on June 22, 2017, obtained an
initial order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) (the “CCAA”) providing for, among other things, a stay of proceedings in
favour of Sears Canada Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries, for an initial period of 30-days, and appointing FTI Consulting Canada Inc. as monitor. FTI Consulting Canada Inc.’s responsibilities are
prescribed by the CCAA and the court’s order, and include monitoring Sears Canada Inc.’s restructuring initiatives and reporting to the court on the progress of the CCAA proceedings. The CCAA proceedings of Sears Canada Inc. are ongoing
and the stay of proceedings was most recently extended until July 31, 2018.

To the Company’s knowledge, no director or executive officer or a shareholder holding a sufficient number of securities of the Company to affect
materially the control of the Company (nor any personal holding company of any of such individuals), has been subject to: 
  

	(a)	 any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory
authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority; or 


  

	(b)	 any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered
important to a reasonable investor making an investment decision. 


 Conflicts of Interest 

The members of the Board of Directors are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and to disclose
any interests, which they may have in any project or opportunity of the Company. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the Board of Directors, any director in a conflict is required to disclose his or her interest and abstain from voting
on such matter. 
 Other than disclosed herein, there are no known existing or potential conflicts of interest among the Company, its directors and officers
or other members of management of the Company as a result of their outside business interests except that certain of the directors and officers serve as directors and officers of other companies, and therefore it is possible that a conflict may
arise between their duties to the Company and their duties as a director or officer of such other companies. See “Risk Factors”.

 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND REGULATORY ACTIONS 

Except as described below, the Company is not aware of: (a) any legal proceedings to which the Company is a party, or by which any of the Company’s
property is subject, which would be material to the Company and the Company is not aware of any such proceedings being contemplated; (b) any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation, or other penalties or
sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body against the Company during the most recently completed financial year or that would otherwise likely be considered important to a reasonable investor making an investment decision; and (c) any
settlement agreements that the Company has entered into before a court relating to securities legislation or with a securities regulatory authority. 
 The
Company is, from time to time, involved in legal proceedings of a nature considered normal to its business. In addition, the Company is currently engaged in a dispute before the AFRAA Tribunal in connection with an unsuccessful unionization effort
by UFCW Canada at the Markham Facility. In 2015, UFCW Canada filed applications for union certification before the Ontario Labour Relations Board (the “OLRB”) and the Canada Industrial Relations Board (the “CIRB”).
The OLRB ordered that a vote of employees be held, which received a majority of votes against unionization. The OLRB also found that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the UFCW Canada’s application for certification because the Company is not
governed by the Labour Relations Act (Ontario) and is instead governed by the AEPA. UFCW Canada’s application for certification to the CIRB was similarly dismissed on the basis that the CIRB lacked jurisdiction. UFCW Canada subsequently
initiated the current complaint before the AFRAA Tribunal, which includes a challenge of the constitutionality of the AEPA. 
 MedReleaf believes that the
ultimate amount of liability, if any, for any pending claims of any type (either alone or combined, and including the application before the AFRAA Tribunal) will not materially affect its financial position or results of operations. However, the
ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain and, regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company’s business because of defence costs, negative publicity, diversion of management resources and other factors. See
“Risk Factors”. 
 INTEREST OF MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS 

Other than as disclosed in this Annual Information Form or in the financial statements of the Company for the financial year ended March 31, 2018, none
of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person or company that beneficially owns, or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of any class or series of the Company’s outstanding voting securities, nor
any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has or has had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction within the three years prior to the date of this Annual Information Form that has materially affected or is reasonably
expected to materially affect the Company or its subsidiaries. 
 TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR 

The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Shares and the Warrants is TSX Trust Company of Canada at its offices in Toronto, Ontario.

 AUDIT
COMMITTEE INFORMATION 
 The Audit Committee is currently comprised of Deborah Rosati (Chair), Norma Beauchamp, and Ronald Funk, each of whom are
“independent” and “financially literate” within the meaning of National Instrument 52-110—Audit Committees (“NI
52-110”). Each member of the Audit Committee has an understanding of the accounting principles used to prepare MedReleaf’s financial statements, experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or
evaluating comparable financial statements and experience as to the general application of relevant accounting principles, as well as an understanding of the internal controls and procedures necessary for financial reporting. For more information
about the relevant education and experience of each member of the Audit Committee, see “Directors and Officers – Biographies”. 

During the most recently completed financial year but prior to the completion of the IPO, Neil Closner was a member of the Audit Committee. Neil Closner was
not “independent” within the meaning of NI 52-110, however the Company relied on the exemption set forth in Section 3.2 of NI 52-110 in respect of the
membership of Neil Closner on the Audit Committee. The current Audit Committee was constituted upon completion of the IPO. 
 The role of the Audit
Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its financial oversight obligations, including the responsibility: (i) to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibility to oversee the Company’s accounting and financial reporting
processes and audits of the Company’s financial statements; (ii) to review the Company’s financial reports and other financial information, disclosure controls and procedures and internal accounting and financial controls;
(iii) to oversee the work of the external auditor in preparing or issuing an audit report or related work, monitor the independence of the external auditor and pre-approve all auditing services and
permitted non-audit services provided by the external auditor; and (iv) to serve as an independent and objective party to monitor the Company’s financial reporting processes and internal control
systems. A copy of the charter of the Audit Committee is attached as Appendix “A” to this Annual Information Form. 
 Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures 
 The Audit Committee charter includes responsibilities regarding the
provision of non-audit services by MedReleaf’s external auditors. This policy encourages consideration of whether the provision of services other than audit services is compatible with maintaining the
auditor’s independence and requires Audit Committee pre approval of permitted audit and audit-related services.
