earlier), Village Farms will identify the Employees to the Company and will provide the Company with the following information for each of the Employees: years of service; position; salary or wage rate; a description of any group insurance or
retirement benefits arrangements; and bonus eligibility.
 (b) Following the Company’s receipt of the initial Cultivation
License in connection with the Delta 3 Assets and Operations and in any event no later than five Business Days thereafter, the Company will offer in writing continuation of employment to those Employees who it wishes to hire, subject to examination
and approval by Emerald and subject further to each such Employee being eligible to receive the necessary Security Clearance with the Minister under the ACMPR or other approvals required under Applicable Laws in order to be employed by the Company
and provide services pursuant to the Licences and Applicable Laws, in each case on terms and conditions no less favourable than the Employee holds with Village Farms as at such date and with recognition of all of the Employee’s prior service
with Village Farms for all purposes. Each Employee who accepts an offer of employment with the Company will be a “Hired Employee”, and each such offer shall include an assignment to the Company of any and all Intellectual Property
created by the Hired Employee during the course of the Hired Employee’s employment with the Company.
 (c) Upon the commencement
of each Hired Employee’s employment with the Company, the Company shall assume and be responsible for, and shall defend, indemnify and save Village Farms and its directors, officers and employees harmless from and against, all liabilities and
obligations for, and any Losses arising out of or related to, the employment and any termination of employment of such Hired Employee, except as set out in Section 4.3(d) and Section 4.3(h).
 (d) Village Farms will be responsible for and pay each Hired Employee in full for any unpaid salary, wages, bonus entitlement and vacation pay accrued during each such Hired Employee’s

   (e) From time-to-time, as reasonably requested by the Company, Village Farms and Emerald will second employees to the Company to provide certain services. In such cases, Village Farms and Emerald,
as applicable, will, in consultation with the Company, determine the appropriate manner in which such employees will be seconded to comply with Applicable Laws and to ensure no adverse impact on the good standing of the Licenses. The Company will
reimburse Village Farms and Emerald on an out- of-pocket cost-recovery basis for each such seconded employee’s reasonable time spent and reasonable expenses incurred by the seconded employee in providing such services.

(f) In accordance with the Intellectual Property licenses granted to the Company in Section 13.1(b) of this Agreement, each of
Village Farms and Emerald will provide necessary growing oversight and input from its senior growing and development teams as needed and shall be reimbursed, on a monthly basis, by the Company for all properly documented reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Village Farms or Emerald, as the case may be, in connection with providing such oversight and input. There shall be no mark-up by Emerald or Village Farms on such costs and expenses.

(g) The Company shall defend, indemnify and save Emerald, Village Farms and their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers
and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred by the Indemnified Parties of any nature in connection with, resulting from or relating to the secondment of any
employees of Emerald, Village Farms and their Affiliates to the Company, including as a result of personal injury including death and property damage and Losses suffered by third parties; provided that the Company shall not be required to reimburse
or indemnify any Indemnified Party for any Losses to the extent such Losses arise from the negligence or wilful misconduct of any Indemnified Party or any breach or default under this Section 4.2.

(h) Where the Company terminates a Hired Employee’s employment relationship on a “without cause” basis, either
Village Farms or Emerald shall be given an opportunity to offer employment to the Hired Employee. If Village Farms or Emerald offers such Hired Employee employment and the Hired Employee accepts the offer, the other Party, as between Village Farms
and Emerald, will have no liability for any Losses arising from or relating to the cessation of the employee’s employment with the Company. If neither Village Farms nor Emerald makes an offer of employment to such Hired Employee, or
Village Farms or Emerald offers the Hired Employee employment but the Hired Employee rejects the offer, then Village Farms will reimburse the Company for its pro rata portion of the reasonable out-of- pocket costs for pay in lieu of notice of
termination or severance (but excluding working notice), if any, incurred by the Company that arise from the termination of the Hired Employee’s employment with the Company (“Severance Costs”) to be determined based on the
ratio, expressed as a percentage, obtained by dividing: (i) the number of months (including part months) the Hired Employee was employed by Village Farms, by (ii) the aggregate of the number of months (including part months) the Hired Employee was
employed by Village Farms and the Company; provided that:
 (i) if the Hired Employee ceases employment with
the Company on a date following the first anniversary of the Hired Employee commencing employment with the Company, Village Farms shall have no liability for Severance Costs relating to such Hired Employee; and

(ii) in no event will Village Farms reimburse the Company for more than 100% of the Severance Costs relating to a
Hired Employee.

Farms in connection with the demise of the Delta 3 Assets and Operations to the Company by Village Farms pursuant to the terms of the Lease.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that subject to further review and consideration by the Board, the Shareholders

Operating Plan acceptable to all Directors in light of the proposals or objections of a Director. The President shall be authorized at all times to continue Operations sufficient to maintain the Company’s assets and comply with Applicable Law
and to maintain production levels in effect when the failure occurs. Operations performed by the President pursuant to this Section 7.3(a) shall be funded by Available Cash to the extent reasonably possible. Unless otherwise determined by the Board,

year immediately preceding the calendar year to which such Operating Plan applies.

contribute; (ii) the date by which each such contribution must be paid; and (iii) a summary description of the proposed use of such contribution. Following receipt of a Contribution Notice, each of the Shareholders shall promptly (and in any event,
by no later than the date specified in the Contribution Notice) complete the contribution of the required amount of funds to the Company in the
 
  - 37 -
 
 


   manner specified by the Board in accordance with Section 7.6. Any default by a Shareholder of its
obligations to provide required funding in the amount and manner and within the specified period set forth in a Contribution Notice shall be addressed in accordance with Article 8. For greater certainty, other than the Shares issued in accordance
with Section 7.1(c), no Shares shall be issued to Emerald in connection with the Emerald Initial Capital Contribution.
 7.6 Method of
Funding
 Unless otherwise determined by the Board from time to time and except as set forth in Section 8.3, the Shareholders shall contribute funds to the Company to satisfy their funding
requirements in this Agreement through increases in Share Capital in the same proportion as the number of Shares held by each of the Shareholders immediately prior to the date of such contribution.
 7.7 Emergency or Unexpected Funding
 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, in case of emergency or to address
unexpected events or to cover unexpected liabilities not covered in an Approved Operating Plan which are necessary to protect Losses to Persons or property, to protect the Company’s assets, or to comply with Applicable Law, the President may
take, or cause or permit the Company to take, any reasonable action the President deems necessary and may incur such expenditures on behalf of the Company as he/she deems necessary notwithstanding that such expenditures will exceed allowable
expenditures (or allowable overages) under an Approved Operating Plan. The President shall promptly notify the Board and the Shareholders of any such emergency or unexpected expenditures that have been made or actions taken or that must be made or
taken. Funds necessary to pay for emergency and unexpected expenditures pursuant to this Section above shall be obtained to the extent reasonably possible, from Available Cash and, if necessary, the Shareholders shall contribute funds to the Company
in proportion to their respective Proportionate Interests, as required in accordance with a Contribution Notice provided by the President. The President shall promptly notify the Shareholders of any such emergency or unexpected expenditures that has

neglects or otherwise fails to comply with the Transfer restrictions contained in this Agreement; or

Business Days after payment should have been paid pursuant to such Contribution Notice; or

(vi) fails to comply with any of the covenants or obligations contained herein (other than
to the extent such breach of covenant or obligation is the subject of any other Event of Default described in this Section 8.1) and such failure has a material adverse effect or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company, the
Operations or the other Shareholder and, where such failure is capable of being cured, such failure remains unremedied for a period of thirty
 (30) days after written notice of such failure has been given by the other Shareholder or the other party to the Transaction Document or such longer period, as may be required to cure such breach
provided that reasonable steps to cure such default are taken and diligently pursued; or
 (vii) in the case
of any representation or warranty made by such Shareholder under this Agreement, any such representation or warranty shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect when made and such inaccuracy has a material adverse effect or is likely
to have a material adverse effect on the Company, the Operations or the other Shareholder, and if the circumstances giving rise to such inaccurate representation or warranty are capable of rectification (such that, thereafter, the representation or
warranty would be correct), the representation or warranty remains uncorrected for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from the other Shareholder; or
 (viii) fails to comply with any of the covenants or obligations contained in a Transaction Document and, where such failure is capable of being cured, such failure remains unremedied for a period

default are taken and diligently pursued,
 shall be referred to as the “Defaulting Shareholder”, and the other Shareholder shall be referred to as the “Non-Defaulting
Shareholder”.
 (b) A Non-Defaulting Shareholder shall give the Defaulting Shareholder a written notice of default (a
“Notice of Default”), which shall describe the default in reasonable detail and state the date by which the default must be cured, which date for curing or commencing to cure shall be in accordance with the time provisions set out

contractual or regulatory obligations. Failure of a Non-Defaulting Shareholder to give a Notice of Default shall not release the Defaulting Shareholder from any of its duties under this Agreement.
 8.2 Funding Default
 (a) If a Defaulting Shareholder fails to
provide the required funding in the amount and manner and within the specified period set forth in a Contribution Notice or as otherwise required pursuant to Section 7.5(b) and, in any case, the 10 Business Day cure period specified by Section 8.1
has elapsed, the Non-Defaulting Shareholder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to:
 
  - 39 -
 
 
 

   (i) fund all or a portion of the amount not funded by the Defaulting Shareholder (the
“Defaulted Amount”) during the 10 day period following the expiry of the cure period referred to in Section 8.1 (the last day of such cure period being referred to as the “Dilution Day”) and, subject to the
immediately following sentence, cause the dilution of the Proportionate Interest of the Defaulting Shareholder in accordance with Section 8.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for the period of time commencing on
the date of this Agreement and ending on the date on which the initial Cultivation License for the Delta 3 Assets and Operations is obtained, the Non-Defaulting Shareholder shall only have a right to cause the dilution of the Defaulting Shareholder
if the required funding (including without limitation, the amount) set forth in a Contribution Notice or otherwise required pursuant to Section 7.5(b) is included within the Initial Budget, or

(ii) advance all or a portion of the Defaulted Amount on behalf of the Defaulting Shareholder as a loan to the
Defaulting Shareholder, with the principal amount of such loan (and any overdue interest) bearing interest at all times at a rate per annum equal to the sum of Prime Rate plus 15%, as the same shall change from time to time, or at the maximum rate
permitted by Applicable Law, whichever is less, calculated and compounded monthly in arrears until paid in full (either by way of a direct payment from the Defaulting Shareholder to the Non-Defaulting Shareholder or through application of future
Distributions pursuant to Section 9.1(c)) (a “Shareholder Loan”) and, for greater certainty, the Shareholder Loan shall be considered to cure any default by the Defaulting Shareholder to fund the required amount.

(b) If the Non-Defaulting Shareholder elects to fund all or a portion of the Defaulted Amount in the manner prescribed in Section
8.2(a)(i), such funding by the Non-Defaulting Shareholder shall be allocated to Share Capital in the same manner as the Share Capital held by the Non-Defaulting Shareholder immediately prior to the funding default.

(c) If the Non-Defaulting Shareholder elects to advance all or a portion of the Defaulted Amount on behalf of the Defaulting Shareholder
as a loan to the Defaulting Shareholder in the manner prescribed in Section 8.2(a)(ii), such advance by the Non-Defaulting Shareholder shall be allocated to Share Capital in the same manner as the Share Capital held by the Defaulting Shareholder
immediately prior to the loan.
 8.3 Dilution Mechanism
 If a Defaulting
Shareholder fails to provide the required funding in the amount and manner and within the specified period set forth in a Contribution Notice or as required pursuant to Section 7.5(a) and the Non-Defaulting Shareholder either: (i) elects to fund the
Defaulted Amount (rather than advance a Shareholder Loan) in accordance with Section 8.2(a)(i); or (ii) elects not to fund the Defaulted Amount; then the Proportionate Interest of each Shareholder will be recalculated immediately after the Dilution
Day in accordance with Schedule C. The Directors shall cause or permit the Company to issue Shares of the Company for nominal consideration to the Non-Defaulting Shareholder in order to reflect a dilution of the Proportionate Interest of the
Defaulting Shareholder in accordance with Schedule C.

deliver all agreements, documents and instruments which the Defaulting Shareholder failed to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered (the “Required Documents”) in order to effect this Section 8.4. The Defaulting

independent Appraiser within 20 Business Days of their appointment which independent Appraiser will have sole responsibility for determining the Fair Market Value. If either Shareholder does not appoint an Appraiser within said 10 Business Day
period, the Appraiser appointed by the other Shareholder shall determine the Fair Market Value.
 (b) The Appraiser appointed by
Section 8.5(a) shall determine the Fair Market Value within 60 days of the earlier of the appointment of such independent Appraiser or the failure by a Shareholder to appoint an Appraiser.
 (c) The Defaulting Shareholder shall pay all fees and expenses charged by the Appraiser(s). The Appraisers shall be entitled to retain such qualified independent appraisers as each may deem
appropriate to assist with its valuation.
 8.6 No Penalty
 The Shareholders
acknowledge and agree that the rights and remedies conferred by this Article 8 do not constitute a penalty, unlawful forfeiture or penalty interest rates, and that such rights and remedies are necessary to ensure that the interests of the
Shareholders are appropriately balanced having regard to the relative funding provided by each Shareholder from time to time. Each Shareholder covenants that it shall not raise any prohibition against penalty clauses as a defence to the terms and
conditions of a Shareholder Loan or the dilution contemplated by Section 8.2 or Section 8.3.

of its share of any liabilities, obligations, costs, expenses (including legal fees), losses, claims, debts, demands, damages, suits, actions and causes of action, penalties or fines (the “Continuing Liabilities”) arising out of
Operations conducted prior to each such dilution or conversion.
 (b) For the purposes of this Article 8, such Shareholder’s
share of Continuing Liabilities arising out of Operations conducted prior to each such dilution or conversion shall be equal to its Proportionate Interest at the time the Continuing Liability was incurred (or the facts or circumstances giving rise
to such Continuing Liability occurred) and, for greater certainty, not equal to its diluted or converted Proportionate Interest resulting from such dilution or resulting in such conversion.
 8.8Indemnities
 (a) Each Shareholder (hereinafter in this Subsection called the
“Indemnifier”) indemnifies and agrees to save harmless the Company and the other Shareholder (hereinafter in this Subsection called the “Indemnified Person”) and each of their Affiliates and each of their directors,
officers and employees, from and against any and all Losses suffered or incurred by the Indemnified Person or (if applicable) any of their Affiliates, and its and their directors, officers and employees as a result of, on account of or by reason of
any and all actions, causes of action, proceedings, claims or demands relating to, arising from or in connection with:

(i) the Indemnifier being a Defaulting Shareholder at any time or in default of any of its obligations under any
of the Transaction Documents, other than in connection with a failure to make a capital contribution as required in accordance with this Agreement if, and to the extent that, the Non-Defaulting Shareholder has advanced funds as a contribution or a
loan pursuant to Section 8.2(a); or
 (ii) the negligence, wilful misconduct, fraud, theft or dishonesty of the

 (c) For greater certainty, a Defaulting Shareholder shall not be entitled to receive any Distributions if and for so long as any Shareholder Loans that have been made in its favour by a Non-
Defaulting Shareholder in accordance with Section 8.2(a)(ii) remain outstanding. Any Distributions that would otherwise be payable to a Defaulting Shareholder shall instead be paid to the Non-Defaulting Shareholder that made the Shareholder Loan
until such Shareholder Loan, and all costs, expenses and accrued interest relating thereto, has been repaid in full in the following order of priority:

experts, whether testifying or not, and witnesses and all costs for preparation for, travel to and attendance at negotiation meetings, mediation conferences or arbitration proceedings commenced, conducted or required in accordance with these Dispute
Resolution Procedures regardless of the outcome.
 16.3 Amicable Resolution of Disputes

(a) The Shareholders will make all reasonable efforts at all times to resolve all Disputes by good faith, amicable negotiations before
resorting to resolution by mediation or arbitration pursuant to Section 16.4 and Section 16.5. The dispute resolution by a mediator or an arbitrator contemplated in Section 16.4 and Section 16.5 is not intended to substitute for the
Shareholders’ mutual ongoing commitment to resolve Disputes in good faith as between themselves.

following negotiations among the Shareholders then either Shareholder may, by delivery of a Notice of Dispute, refer such dispute to non-binding mediation.
 (b) Each Shareholder will work with the other to select an acceptable mediator and the appropriate rules of mediation, and to work with the mediator to resolve the Dispute. The mediation

impartially and shall not act as advocates for the interests of the party who appointed them.

case may be, will be appointed on a Dispute by Dispute basis, with each Expert having the qualifications and experience relevant to the issues in the particular Dispute for which the Expert or Panel, as the case may be, is appointed.

notice forthwith to the other Shareholder of any third party claim or threatened third party claim made by any Person with respect to the Company, the Shares or any part thereof.
 17.4 Force Majeure
 (a) Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, if any Party is unable wholly or in part by Force Majeure to carry out any obligation of such Party under this Agreement (excluding the obligations to fund or make payments by the Shareholders), then such Party shall
forthwith give the other Parties written notice of the Force Majeure and the expected delays in meeting applicable obligations, whereupon that obligation of the Party giving the notice will be suspended so far as it is affected by that Force Majeure
during but not longer than its continuance. The affected Party or Parties must use all reasonable diligence to resolve that Force Majeure as quickly as possible.
 (b) Forthwith after the resolution of an applicable Force Majeure, the affected Party shall send written notice of such resolution to the other Parties, and the dates for satisfying the
applicable obligation shall be deemed to have been extended by the period of time during which the Force Majeure was in effect.

17.5 Assignment, Successors, etc.
 (a) This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided herein, no
Party shall assign this Agreement or any of the benefits hereof or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties.

amalgamation, arrangement, merger, combination or transaction.
 17.6 Entire Agreement

all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no conditions, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties or other provisions, express or

   17.7 Further
Assurances
 Each of the Parties to this Agreement shall from time to time and at all times do all such further acts and execute and deliver all further agreements and documents as shall
be reasonably required in order fully to perform and carry out the terms of this Agreement.
 17.8 Amendment and
Waivers
 No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding on a Party unless consented to in writing by all Parties. No failure or delay to exercise, or other
relaxation or indulgence granted in relation to, any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of it or impair or prejudice it nor shall any single or partial exercise or waiver of any power, right or remedy preclude its
further exercise or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. The failure of any Party to insist upon strict adherence to any provision of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that Party of the right
thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to such provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No purported waiver shall be effective as against any Party unless consented to in writing by such Party. The waiver by any Party of a breach of
any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent or other breach.

17.9 Severability
 Every provision of this Agreement is intended to be
several, and accordingly, if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, all other provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or
legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party hereto. To the extent that any provision is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties shall act in good faith to
substitute for such provision, to the extent possible, a new provision with content and purpose as close as possible to the provision so determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
 17.10 References
 All references in this Agreement to any statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, the ACMPR,
shall mean and refer to such statute and all regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended, supplemented, re-enacted or replaced from time to time. Additionally, the Parties will make reasonable efforts to interpret this Agreement in accordance

   17.14 Remedies;
Specific Performance
 Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other
remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties hereby agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any
provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge
and hereby agree that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by any Party of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the other Parties shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent or restrain breaches or
threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other under
this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereby agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by it, and to specifically
enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other Parties under this Agreement.

17.15 No Contra Proferentem
 Unless otherwise expressly defined in
this Agreement, the words used in this Agreement bear their natural meaning. The parties have had equal opportunity to take legal advice and the contra proferentem rule does not apply to the interpretation of this Agreement. Save as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, each party shall be responsible for and shall bear all its own fees and expenses with respect to the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement.
 17.16 Counterparts
 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be executed either in original or electronic form, and the Parties adopt any signatures received by means of electronic
