The Warrants issued and transferred pursuant to this Section 1(b) shall be
exercisable for Voting Shares as provided in such Warrants, with
each such Warrant exercisable, at an exercise price of $0.28 per
Voting Share, for a number of Voting Shares equal to (x) the
principal amount of the Debenture purchased by such Purchaser
divided by (y) $0.20 (subject to adjustment as set forth in the
Warrant). The Debentures and the
Warrants, taken together, constitute an “investment
unit” for purposes of Section 1273(c)(2) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”).
In accordance with Sections 1273(c)(2)(A) and 1273(b)(2) of the
Code, the issue price of the investment unit is the purchase price
of the Debentures, a portion thereof equal to $0.0235 times the
number of shares underlying the Warrants representing the fair
market value of the Warrants. Accordingly, the fair market value of
the Warrants shall be treated as “original issue
discount” that will accrue over the term of the Debentures as
additional interest for federal income tax purposes. Unless
otherwise required by Applicable Law, the parties shall not take
any position inconsistent with that allocation on any tax return or
for any other tax purpose.

 

 

 

 

(c) Closing. The sale and purchase
of Debentures and the Warrants shall take place at a closing (the
“Initial
Closing”) to be held on April 10, 2020 or such other
date that is mutually agreeable to the Company and the Purchasers
investing in the Company at the Initial Closing (the
“Initial
Closing Date”), and on which not less than the Minimum
Amount is subscribed for and purchased, by remote electronic
exchange of executed documents and funds, or, at such other place
and time as the Company and the Purchasers may determine. At the
Initial Closing, the Company shall deliver a Debenture and Warrant
to each of the Purchasers against receipt by the Company of the
corresponding purchase price set forth on Schedule I hereto (the “Purchase
Price”). The Company may conduct one or more
additional closings (each, an “Additional
Closing” and, collectively, the “Additional
Closings”; and, together with the Initial Closing, the
“Closings” and
each, a “Closing”) to
be held within 45 days of the Initial Closing or by such earlier
date on which Debentures and Warrants in the aggregate principal
amount equal to the Maximum Amount shall have been purchased, at
such place and time as the Company and the Purchaser(s)
participating in such Additional Closing (each an
“Additional
Purchaser”) may determine (each, an
“Additional
Closing Date” and collectively, the
“Additional Closing
Dates”; and, together with the Initial Closing Date,
the “Closing Dates”
and each, a “Closing
Date”). At each Additional Closing, the Company shall
deliver a Debenture and Warrant to each of the Additional
Purchasers participating in such Additional Closing against receipt
by the Company of the corresponding Purchase Price. Each Debenture
shall be convertible into Company Shares in accordance with its
terms and shall be registered in such Purchaser’s name in
Company's records. All such sales made at any Additional Closings
shall be made on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement provided that (i) the representations and warranties of
the Company and Parent set forth in Section 2 hereof shall speak as
of the Initial Closing and neither the Company nor Parent shall
have any obligation to update any disclosure related thereto, and
(ii) the representations and warranties of each Additional
Purchaser set forth in Section 3 hereof shall speak as
of the date of such Additional Closing. This Agreement, including
without limitation, Schedule I, shall be amended to
include any Additional Purchasers without the consent of the
parties hereto, including any Purchaser, upon the execution by any
such Additional Purchaser of a counterpart signature page hereto.
Any Debentures purchased by Additional Purchasers shall be deemed
to be “Debentures,” for all purposes under this
Agreement and any such Additional Purchasers shall be deemed to be
“Purchasers” for all purposes under this
Agreement.

 

2. Representations and Warranties of the Company
and Parent. The Company and Parent, on a joint and several

relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights

3. Representations and Warranties of
Purchasers. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly,
represents and warrants to the Company and Parent as
follows:

 

(a) Binding Obligation. Such
Purchaser has the legal capacity, corporate power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder. The Transaction Documents constitute valid and binding
obligations of such Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their
terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of
general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally and general principles of
equity.

 

(b) Securities Law Compliance. Such
Purchaser has been advised that the Debentures, the Warrants and
the underlying securities have not been registered under the
Securities Act, or any Applicable Securities Law, and, therefore,
cannot be resold unless they are registered under the Securities
Act and Applicable Securities Law or unless an exemption from such
registration requirements is available. Such Purchaser is aware
that neither the Company nor Parent is under any obligation to
effect any such registration with respect to the Debentures, the
Warrants or the underlying securities or to file for or comply with
any exemption from registration. Such Purchaser is further aware
that Parent would not qualify as a “foreign private
issuer” within the meaning of Securities Exchange Act Rule

formed solely for the purpose of making this investment. Such
Purchaser is purchasing the Debentures to be acquired by such
Purchaser hereunder for the Purchaser’s own account for
investment, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or
for resale of the Debenture, Warrant or the underlying securities
in connection with, the distribution thereof, and such Purchaser
has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in,
or otherwise distributing the same. The residency of the Purchaser
(or, in the case of a partnership or corporation, such
entity’s principal place of business) is correctly set forth
beneath such Purchaser’s name on Schedule I hereto.

 

(c) Accredited Investor. Such
Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters that such Purchaser is capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of such investment, is able to incur a complete
loss of such investment without impairing such Purchaser’s
financial condition and is able to bear the economic risk of such
investment for an indefinite period of time. Such Purchaser is an
“accredited investor” as such term is defined in
Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and
will submit to the Company or Parent such further assurances of
such status as may be reasonably requested by the
Company.

 

(d) Access to Information. Such
Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has given such Purchaser
access to the records and accounts of the Company and to all
information in its possession relating to the Company, has made its
officers and representatives available for interview by such
Purchaser, and has furnished such Purchaser with all documents and
other information required for such Purchaser to make an informed
decision with respect to the purchase of the
Debentures.

 

(e) Cannabis Representations and
Warranties. Such Purchaser is not disqualified from owning
an equity interest in a commercial cannabis business licensed for
cultivation, manufacturing, retail and/or distribution under
MAUCRSA. Such Purchaser if designated as an “Owner” (as
defined under Section 5003 of the Bureau of Cannabis Control
Regulations) would not be disqualified from holding such license(s)
in connection with its ownership pursuant to California Business
and Professions Code Sections 480, 26053 or 26057(b) or any other
similar Applicable Law.

substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Purchasers; or

Securities Laws or other applicable

7. Tax
Matters.

 

(a) Taxes.

 

(i) Any and all
payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under
the Debentures shall be made free and clear of and without
reduction or withholding for any taxes; provided that if the
Company is required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold any
Taxes from such payment, then:

 

(A) If such tax is an
Indemnified Tax, the amount payable by the Company shall be
increased so that after making all required deductions or
withholdings, each Purchaser receives an amount equal to the amount
it would have received had no such deduction or withholdings been
made; and

 

(B) The Company shall
make such deductions, timely pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law,
and provide each Purchaser with official receipts or other evidence
satisfactory to such Purchaser for each payment.

 

(ii) Without
duplication, each of the Company and Parent jointly and severally
agrees to indemnify each Purchaser upon demand for the full amount
of Indemnified Taxes payable or paid by such Purchaser or required
to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Purchaser and any
liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses
and any Indemnified Taxes imposed on any amount taxable under this
Section 7(a)(ii)) arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
Indemnification payments due to any Purchaser under this Section
7(a)(ii) shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such
Purchaser makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a
Purchaser shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(b) Purchaser Status for U.S. Tax
Purposes.

 

(i) Any Purchaser that
is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax
with respect to payments made under any Debenture shall deliver to
the Company, at the time or times reasonably requested by the
Company, such properly completed and executed documentation
reasonably requested by the Company as will permit such payments to
be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In
addition, any Purchaser, if reasonably requested by the Company,
shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law
or reasonably requested by the Company as will enable the Company
to determine whether or not such Purchaser is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the
completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other
than such documentation set forth in Section 7(b)(ii)(A), (B) and
(D) below) shall not be required if in the Purchaser’s
reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would
subject such Purchaser to any material unreimbursed cost or expense
or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of
such Purchaser.

 

 

 

 

(ii) Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing:

 

(A) any Purchaser that
is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company on or prior to the
date on which such Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable
request of the Company), executed originals of IRS Form W-9
certifying that such Purchaser is exempt from U.S. Federal backup
withholding tax;

 

(B) any non-U.S.
Purchaser shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be
requested by the Company) on or prior to the date on which such
non-U.S. Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement (and
from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the
Company), whichever of the following is applicable

 

i) in the case of a
non-U.S. Purchaser claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to
which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of
interest under any Debenture, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN
or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor thereto) establishing
an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax
pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty
and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any
Debenture, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable
successor thereto) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,
U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business
profits” or “other income” article of such tax
treaty;

 

ii)
executed originals
of IRS Form W-8ECI;

 

iii)
in the case of a
non-U.S. Purchaser claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
certificate substantially to the effect that such non-U.S.
Purchaser is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of
the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code,
or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in
Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN
or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor thereto);
or

 

iv)
to the extent a
non-U.S. Purchaser is not the beneficial owner of payments made to
it, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY and a U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate by such non-U.S. Purchaser, accompanied by IRS Form
W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable
successor thereto), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form
W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial
owner, as applicable; provided that if the non-U.S. Purchaser is a
partnership or other tax transparent entity for U.S. federal income
tax purposes and one or more direct or indirect partners of such
foreign Purchaser are claiming the portfolio interest exemption,
such foreign Purchaser may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner or
beneficial owners.

 

(C) any non-U.S.
Purchaser shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Company (in such number of copies as shall be
requested by the Company) on or prior to the date on which such
non-U.S. Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement (and
from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the
Company), executed originals of any other form prescribed by
applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company as a basis
for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal
withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the
Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be
made; and

 

(D) if a payment made
to a Purchaser under any Debenture would be subject to U.S. federal
withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Purchaser were to fail to
comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA
(including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the
Code, as applicable), such Purchaser shall deliver to Company at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times
reasonably requested by Company such documentation prescribed by
Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)
of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested
by Company as may be necessary for compliance with FATCA and to
determine that such Purchaser has complied with such
Purchaser’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for
purposes of this clause (D) “FATCA” shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement.

 

(E) Each Purchaser
agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall
promptly update such form or certification or notify the Company in
writing of its legal inability to do so.

 

 

 

 

8. Lock-Up. Each Purchaser hereby agrees
that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Required
Purchasers, during the one year period commencing on the date of
the Initial Closing, (a) sell, offer to sell, pledge,
mortgage, hypothecate, encumber, dispose of or engage in any
similar transaction, directly or indirectly, the Debentures, the
Warrants or the securities issuable upon exercise, conversion or
exchange thereof or (b) enter into any swap or other
arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of
the economic consequences of ownership of the Debentures, the
Warrants or the securities issuable upon exercise, conversion or
exchange thereof; provided, however, that a Purchaser may transfer
any such Debentures, the Warrants or the securities issuable upon
exercise, conversion or exchange thereof to an affiliate of such
Purchaser provided that such transferee agrees to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 8.

 

9. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Any
provision of this Agreement, the Warrants and the Debentures may be
amended, waived or modified only upon the written consent of the
Company, Parent and the Required Purchasers. Any amendment or
waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding
upon all of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Agreement may be amended to add a party as a Purchaser hereunder in
connection with Additional Closings without the consent of any
other Purchaser, by delivery to the Company of a counterparty
signature page to this Agreement, together with a supplement to
Schedule
I hereto. Such
amendment shall take effect at the Additional Closing and such
party shall thereafter be deemed a “Purchaser” for all
purposes hereunder and Schedule I hereto shall be
updated to reflect the addition of such Purchaser.

 

(b) Governing Law and
Venue.

 

(i) This Agreement and
all actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal
laws of Delaware, without regard to its rules governing the
conflict of laws.

 

(ii) Each
Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself
and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Delaware
State court or Federal court of the United States of America
sitting in Delaware, in Wilmington, and any appellate court from
any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each party hereto
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) agrees not to commence
any such action or proceeding except in such courts; (b) agrees
that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be
heard and determined in such courts; (c) waives any objection or
defense which it may now or hereafter have based on personal
jurisdiction; (d) waives any objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or
proceeding in any such court; and (e) waives the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding
in any such court. Each Party hereto agrees that a final judgment
in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any
other manner provided by law. Each Party hereto irrevocably
consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices
in Section
9(g).

 

(iii) EACH
PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN ANY OF THE
PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING
OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT,
THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY OR THEREBY OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED AMONG THE
PARTIES HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

 

(c) Survival. The representations and warranties
made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement until the first anniversary of the Initial
Closing.

 

(d) Successors and Assigns. This
Agreement may not be assigned, conveyed or transferred by any
Purchaser without the prior written consent of the Company;
provided, however, a
Purchaser that is a partnership, corporation, trust, joint venture,
unincorporated organization or other entity may transfer its rights
under this Agreement to an affiliate without the prior written
consent of the Company. This Agreement may not be assigned,
conveyed or transferred by the Company without the prior written
consent of the Required Purchasers, provided that the Company may
assign this without the consent of any Purchaser to an acquiror of
all or a substantial portion of the Company’s business and
assets (however structured). Subject to the foregoing, the rights
and obligations of the Company and each Purchaser under this
Agreement shall be binding upon and benefit their respective
permitted successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and
transferees. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the
sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and are not intended to confer any
third-party benefit on any other Person. In addition, the Company
shall maintain a register (the "Register") for the
recordation of the names and addresses of each Purchaser and each
other Person receiving any assignment permitted hereunder, and the
principal amount (and stated interest) owing thereto under the
Debentures.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the
Company, Parent, each Purchaser and each other Person receiving any
assignment permitted hereunder shall treat each Person listed in
the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a lender for all
purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary.  No purported transfer of any interest in the
Debentures shall be effective except upon recordation in the
Register.  The Register shall be available for inspection by
each Purchaser and each other Person receiving any assignment
permitted hereunder, at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice.  The parties intend that this
Section 9(d) shall
be interpreted and administered such that the Debentures are at all
times maintained in “registered form” within the
meaning of Sections 163(f), 165(g), 871(h)(2), 881(c)(2) and 4701
of the Code.

 

(e) No Stockholder Rights. Until
and only to the extent that the Debentures shall have been duly
converted into or the Warrants shall have been exercised for
capital stock of Parent, (i) nothing contained in this Agreement,
the Warrants or the Debentures shall be construed as conferring
upon any Purchaser the right to vote or to consent or to receive
notice as a stockholder in respect of meetings of stockholders for
the election of directors of Parent or any other matters or any
rights whatsoever as a stockholder of Parent and (ii) no dividends
shall be payable or accrued in respect of the Debentures or the
Warrants or the shares obtainable thereunder.

 

 

 

 

(f) Entire Agreement. This
Agreement together with the other Transaction Documents constitute
and contain the entire agreement among the Company and Purchasers
and supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations,
correspondence, understandings and communications among the
parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter
hereof.

 

(g) Notices. All notices or other
communications required or permitted hereunder shall in writing and
faxed, emailed, mailed or delivered to each party as follows: (i)

delivered by facsimile or email (with receipt of appropriate
confirmation), (iv) one business day after being deposited with an
overnight courier service of recognized standing or (v) four days
after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage
prepaid.

 

(h) Separability of Agreements;
Severability. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein,
the rights of each Purchaser hereunder are several rights, not
rights jointly held with any of the other Purchasers. Any
invalidity, illegality or limitation on the enforceability of the
Agreement or any part thereof, by any Purchaser whether arising by
reason of the law of the respective Purchaser’s domicile or
otherwise, shall in no way affect or impair the validity, legality
or enforceability of this Agreement with respect to other
Purchasers. If any provision of this Agreement shall be judicially
determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the Company and the
Required Purchasers will in good faith agree upon an enforceable
provision that most nearly gives effect to the intent of the
invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

(i) Expenses. The Company shall
reimburse a single counsel to Geronimo Central Valley Opportunity
Fund, LLC and Merida Capital Partners (the “Lead
Investors”) for reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees
incurred in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents. Such expenses shall be deducted by
the Lead Investors from the principal amount otherwise payable for
the Debentures purchased by such Lead Investor.

 

(j) Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one
and the same agreement. Facsimile copies of signed signature pages
shall be deemed executed originals.

 

(k) Currency. Unless otherwise
specified, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement mean
the lawful currency of the United States.

 

(l) Acknowledgement regarding Excluded
Laws. The Parties hereto agree and acknowledge that no Party
makes, will make, or shall be deemed to make or have made any
representation or warranty of any kind regarding the compliance of
this Agreement or any Debenture with Excluded Laws. No party hereto
shall have any right of rescission or amendment arising out of or
relating to any non-compliance with Excluded Laws.

 

(m) Disclosure. The parties hereto
hereby consent to the disclosure of the substance of this Agreement
in any news release or other disclosure document required by
Applicable Law and to the public filing of this Agreement on the
System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) as
may be required pursuant to Applicable Law; provided, however, that

for the Investors in advance of any public filing and any comments
thereto shall be considered in good faith.
