Attention: Jason Vedadi, Executive Chairman

 

Re: Convertible Debenture Facility

 

The undersigned, [***], (the “Investor”), understands that Harvest Health & Recreation, Inc. (the “Company” or the “Issuer”) proposes to sell, and the Investor propose to purchase, on an private placement agency basis through Eight Capital (the “Agent”), over an eighteen (18) month period commencing on the date hereof (the “Term”), up to 400,000 unsecured convertible debentures (the “Convertible Debentures”) in the principal amount of US$1,000 per Convertible Debentures, completed in Tranches (as defined below).

 

The maximum amount of Convertible Debentures to be subscribed for over the Term is four hundred million dollars (US$400,000,000) (herein, the “Offering”) in lawful money of the United States of America. The Convertible Debentures will be issuable in four tranches (each a “Tranche”) of 100,000 Convertible Debentures per Tranche upon prior notice by the Company. The Investor shall be entitled to appoint, at its sole discretion, a syndicate consisting of other investors to participate in the Offering. The Investor and any syndicate members will subscribe for 100,000 Convertible Debentures in each Tranche in their respective pro rata shares (the “Pro Rata Share”), provided the each syndicate member shall meet the criteria set out in Section 9(b). If any syndicate member fails to subscribe for their Pro Rata Share in respect of any Tranche, the Investor will subscribe for any Convertible Debentures not subscribed for by such syndicate member.

 

The first Tranche shall be issuable no earlier than 60 days following the date of this Agreement. Each subsequent Tranche shall be issuable no earlier than the 60th day following the issuance of the immediately preceding Tranche (the “Draw-Down Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may at any time decide, in its discretion, not to issue any Convertible Debentures pursuant to the Offering.

 

The Company shall issue to the Investor and any syndicate members in the first Tranche common share purchase warrants (each, a “Warrant”) in the Pro Rata Share to purchase subordinated voting shares (each, a “Common Share”) in the capital of the Company in an amount equal to 40% of the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of Convertible Debentures of the first Tranche. The Company shall issue to the Investor in the second Tranche Warrants to Common Shares in an amount equal to 20% of the number of Common Shares issuable upon conversion of Convertible Debentures of the second Tranche. No additional Warrants will be issued to the Investor in respect of any subsequent Tranche completed after the first and second Tranches.

It is understood and acknowledged by the Investor that the Company and the Agent have entered into an agency agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Agency Agreement”) pursuant to which the Agent has agreed to act, as agent to the Company to effect the Offering on a best efforts agency basis, without underwriter liability. In consideration of the services to be rendered by the Agent under the Agency Agreement and all other matters in connection with the offer and issue and sale of the Convertible Debentures, the Company shall, subject to the provisions hereof, pay to the Agent a commission (the “Commission”) equal to 4.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering. The Commission will be payable by the Company on the Closing Date of each Tranche.

 

The Convertible Debentures will bear interest at a rate of 7.0%, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on the date of issuance. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months. The maturity date for the Convertible Debentures will be 36 months following the applicable date of issuance (the “Maturity Date”).

 

The Convertible Debentures will be convertible at the option of the holder of the Convertible Debenture into Common Shares at any time prior to the close of business on the last Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, subject to the policies of the Exchange, at a conversion price, expressed in U.S. dollars, equal to a 15% premium to the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Exchange (as defined below) during the five (5) trading days commencing on the trading day after the acceptance by the Investor of the applicable Draw-Down Notice and ending on the trading day immediately preceding the Closing Date (as defined below) of each applicable Tranche (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment in certain events. For the purposes of determining the Conversion Price of the Convertible Debentures, the U.S. dollars equivalent of the trading price of the Common Shares will be determined based on the Bank of Canada USD/CAD exchange rate on the date that is two (2) Business Days (as defined below) prior to the issuance of the applicable Tranche of Convertible Debentures.

 

Commencing on the date that is four months plus one day following the Closing Date of each applicable Tranche, the Company may require the holder of the Convertible Debentures to convert all but not less than all of the then outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Debentures issued in the applicable Tranche at the Conversion Price, if, for any ten (10) consecutive trading days commencing on the date that is four months plus one day following the Closing Date of the applicable Tranche and prior to the applicable Maturity Date, the daily volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Exchange, is greater than a 40% premium to the applicable Conversion Price, provided that the Company gives 30 days’ advance written notice of such conversion to the holder of the Convertible Debentures, subject to such conversion being permitted under the policies of the Exchange. For greater certainty, ten (10) consecutive trading days shall not include any trading day on which the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion would be subject to restrictions on resale in Canada upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be permitted to force conversion of the Convertible Debentures if the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion will be subject to restrictions on resale in Canada, other than restrictions on resale imposed by a subsequent transfer of the Convertible Debentures during the restricted period.

 

 
- 3 -

 

Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share, subject to the policies of the Exchange, at an exercise price (“Warrant Exercise Price”) equal to a 30% premium to the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Exchange during the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Closing Date of each applicable Tranche exercisable for a period of 36 months following the Closing Date of the applicable Tranche, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

 

The Convertible Debentures shall be duly and validly created and issued pursuant to, and governed by, the certificates representing the Convertible Debentures (the “Debenture Certificates”), in substantially the form of the certificate attached as Schedule B hereto with such changes as required for the particular terms of a Tranche. The Warrants shall be duly and validly created and issued pursuant to, and governed by, the certificates representing the Warrants (the “Warrant Certificates”), in substantially the form of the certificate attached as Schedule C hereto with such changes as required for the particular terms of a Tranche. To the extent there is any inconsistency between the description of the terms of the Convertible Debentures and Warrants, as applicable, contained in this Agreement and the Debenture Certificates and Warrant Certificates, as applicable, the terms set forth in the Debenture Certificates and Warrant Certificates shall govern.

 

All references to “dollars” or “$” in this Agreement refer to Canadian dollars and all references to “U.S. dollars” or “US$” in this Agreement refer to United States of America dollars, unless the context otherwise requires.

All Tranches shall be initiated upon the receipt and acceptance by the Investor of a written irrevocable notice (“Draw-Down Notice”) in the form attached hereto as Schedule B no sooner than sixty (60) calendar days following the closing (“Closing”) of the previous Tranche.

Immediately following the acceptance of a Draw-Down Notice by the Investor, the Company shall issue a press release (“Press Release”) announcing the terms of the offering of Convertible Debentures and Warrants to be purchased in the Tranche in question.

 

The Company shall provide the Investor with a copy of the Press Release, the amended Form 9 (or such other form or procedure prescribed by the Exchange), if any, filed with the Exchange and the conditional approval request made by the Company, if any, to the Exchange for each such Tranche.

 

The Company may withdraw a Drawdown Notice for the issuance of a Tranche if volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Exchange during the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the Closing Date is 20% lower than the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date of the Drawdown Notice.

  (e) the Company shall be in a position to deliver on closing of the applicable Tranche, a certificate confirming the accuracy of all representations and warranties in all material respects contained in this Agreement, as if such representations and warranties were provided as of the date of such Tranche;

  (g) the Common Shares issuable to any Investor pursuant to a Tranche, when aggregated with the Common Shares and securities exercisable or convertible into Common Shares held by such Investor on the date of the closing of the particular Tranche, would not result in such Investor becoming a “control person” of the Company (as such term is defined in the Securities Act (Ontario);

The omission to so notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability which the Indemnitor may have to an Indemnified Party except only to the extent that any such delay in giving or failure to give notice as herein required results in any material increase in the liability under this indemnity which the Indemnitor would otherwise have incurred had the Indemnified Party not so delayed in giving, or failed to give, the notice required hereunder.

 

The indemnity and contribution obligations of the Indemnitor hereunder shall be in addition to any liability which the Indemnitor may otherwise have (including under this Agreement and the transaction contemplated herein), shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to the Indemnified Parties and shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of any successors, permitted assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Indemnitor, the Underwriter and any other Indemnified Party. The foregoing provisions shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the completion of professional services rendered under this Agreement.

HARVEST HEALTH & RECREATION INC.

 

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT FOR CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES [AND WARRANTS]

 

TO: HARVEST HEALTH & RECREATION INC. (THE “CORPORATION”)
   
AND TO: EIGHT CAPITAL (THE “AGENT”)

 

The undersigned (the “Subscriber”) hereby subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Corporation, on the terms and conditions herein (the “Subscription Agreement”) that number of unsecured convertible debentures of the Corporation set out below (the “Convertible Debentures”) at a price of US$1,000.00 per Convertible Debenture (the “Subscription Price”). The Convertible Debentures will bear interest at a rate of 7.0% per annum from the Closing Date (as defined herein), payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 30 of each year, and will mature 36 months from the Closing Date. The Convertible Debentures will be convertible at the option of the holder to subordinate voting shares of the Corporation (the “Underlying Shares”) at a price of US$• (the “Conversion Price”) (being CAD$• multiplied by the Exchange Rate (as defined below)) per Underlying Share, subject to customary adjustment provisions in certain stated circumstances.

 

Upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures, the holder shall receive a cash payment equal to the accrued and unpaid interest due on the Convertible Debentures being so converted on and including the date of conversion. Additionally, all final definitive terms of the Convertible Debentures shall be set forth in the Debenture certificate (the “Debenture Certificate”) for the Convertible Debentures to be entered into by the Corporation on or prior to the Closing Date. “Exchange Rate” shall mean the Bank of Canada USD/CAD exchange rate on the date that is 2 business days prior to the issuance of the Convertible Debentures.

 

At any time after the date that is four months and one day following the Closing Date, the Corporation may require the holder of the Convertible Debentures to convert all but not less than all of the then outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Debentures at the Conversion Price, provided that the Corporation gives 30 days’ advance written notice of such conversion to the holder, which notice may be given if, at any time after the date that is four months and one day following the Closing Date, the daily volume weighted average trading price (“VWAP”) of the Underlying Shares on the CSE (as defined herein), or such other Canadian stock exchange on which the Underlying Shares are listed and posted for trading, is greater than a 40% premium to the Conversion Price for any 10 consecutive trading days (the “VWAP Days”), subject to such conversion being permitted under the policies of the exchange. For greater certainty, VWAP Days shall not include any trading day during the four months following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be permitted to force conversion of the Convertible Debentures if the Underlying Shares will be subject to restrictions on resale in Canada upon conversion, other than restrictions on resale imposed by a subsequent transfer of the Convertible Debentures during the restricted period.

 

[Concurrently with the issuance of the Convertible Debentures, the Subscriber shall receive warrants of the Corporation (“Warrants”) equal to •% of the number of Underlying Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Convertible Debentures purchased hereunder (rounded down to the nearest whole number). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one subordinate voting share of the Corporation (the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of CAD$• per Warrant Share, subject to customary adjustment provisions in certain stated circumstances, until the date that is 36 months from the Closing Date. Additionally, all final definitive terms of the Warrants shall be set forth in the warrant certificate (the “Warrant Certificate”) for the warrants to be issued by the Corporation on or prior to the Closing Date.]

 

The Subscriber agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in the attached “Terms and Conditions of Subscription for Convertible Debentures [and Warrants]” including without limitation the terms, representations, warranties, covenants, certifications and acknowledgements set forth in the applicable Schedule attached thereto. The Subscriber further agrees, without limitation, that the Corporation and the Agent may rely upon the Subscriber’s representations, warranties, covenants, certifications and acknowledgements contained in such documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be permitted to force conversion of this Debenture if the Common Shares issuable upon such conversion will be subject to restrictions on resale in Canada, other than restrictions on resale imposed by a subsequent transfer of the Debentures during the restricted period.

 

(3) The Conversion Right and Accelerated Conversion Right shall extend only to the maximum number of whole Common Shares into which the outstanding Principal Amount of the Debenture or any part thereof may be converted in accordance with this Section 4.1. Fractional interests in Common Shares shall be adjusted in the manner provided in Section 4.4.

 

A - 5
 

 

Section 4.2 Conversion Procedure

 

(1) The Conversion Right may be exercised by the Lender by completing and signing the notice of conversion (the “Conversion Notice”) attached hereto as Schedule B, and delivering the Conversion Notice and this Debenture to the Borrower. The Conversion Notice shall provide that the Conversion Right is being exercised, shall specify the Canadian dollar equivalent of the outstanding Principal Amount being converted, and shall set out the date (the “Issue Date”) on which Common Shares are to be issued to be paid upon the exercise of the Conversion Right (such date to be no earlier than five (5) Business Days and no later than ten (10) Business Days after the day on which the Conversion Notice is issued). The conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Issue Date and the Common Shares issuable upon conversion shall be deemed to be issued as fully paid and non-assessable at such time. On the Issue Date, the required number of Common Shares shall be issued to the Lender. If less than all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture is the subject of the Conversion Right, then on the Issue Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a replacement Debenture in the form hereof in the principal amount of the unconverted principal balance hereof, and this Debenture shall be cancelled. If the Conversion Right is being exercised in respect of the entire Principal Amount of this Debenture, this Debenture shall be cancelled. With the Conversion Notice, the Lender shall provide the Borrower with its written calculation of the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount which is the subject of the Conversion Right pursuant to the Conversion Notice, up to the date of that Conversion Notice and a per diem amount thereon.

 

(2) The Accelerated Conversion Right may be exercised by the Borrower by delivering at least 30 days’ advance written notice (the “Accelerated Conversion Notice”) to the Lender. The Accelerated Conversion Notice shall provide that the Accelerated Conversion Right is being exercised, shall specify that all but not less than all of the Canadian dollar equivalent of the outstanding Principal Amount is being converted, shall specify the ten (10) consecutive VWAP Days and daily trading volume on the Exchange on which the VWAP of the Common Shares exceeded $● and shall set out the date (the “Accelerated Issue Date”) on which Common Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of the Accelerated Conversion Right (such date to be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 35 days after the day on which the Accelerated Conversion Notice is issued, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Borrower and the Lender). The conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Accelerated Issue Date and the Common Shares issuable upon conversion shall be deemed to be issued as fully paid and non-assessable at such time. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Accelerated Issue Date, provided a certificate or direct registration statement for the required number of Common Shares has been issued to the Lender this Debenture shall be cancelled. With the Accelerated Conversion Notice, the Borrower shall provide the Lender with its written calculation of the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount which is the subject of the Accelerated Conversion Right pursuant to the Accelerated Conversion Notice, up to the date of that Accelerated Conversion Notice and a per diem amount thereon.

 

Section 4.3 Adjustment of Conversion Price

 

The Conversion Price in effect at any date shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

 

(1) If and whenever at any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall:

 

  (a) subdivide or re-divide the outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares;
     
  (b) reduce, combine or consolidate the outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares;
     
  (c) issue Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of stock dividend other distribution; or
     
  (d) make a distribution on its outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares,

 

the Conversion Price in effect on the effective date of such subdivision, re-division, reduction, combination or consolidation or on the record date for such issue of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) by way of a stock dividend or other distribution, as the case may be, shall, in the case of the events referred to in Sections 4.3(1)(a), (c) and (d) above, be decreased in proportion to the increase in the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such subdivision, re-division or dividend (including, in the case where securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares are issued, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had such securities been converted into or exchanged for Common Shares on such effective or record date) or shall, in the case of the events referred to in Section 4.3(1)(b) above, be increased in proportion to the decrease in the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such reduction, combination or consolidation on such effective or record date. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 4.3(1) shall occur. Any such issue of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) by way of a stock dividend or other distribution shall be deemed to have been made on the record date for the stock dividend or other distribution for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under Sections 4.3(2) and (3); to the extent that any such securities are not converted into or exchanged for Common Shares prior to the expiration of the conversion or exchange right, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted effective as at the date of such expiration to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued on the exercise of such conversion or exchange right.

 

A - 6
 

 

(2) If and whenever at any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than forty-five (45) days after such date of issue (such period from the record date to the date of expiry being referred to in this Section 4.3(2) as the “Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) (such subscription price per Common Share (inclusive of any cost of acquisition of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares in addition to any direct cost of Common Shares) being referred to in this Section 4.3(2) as the “Per Share Cost”), the Borrower shall give written notice to the Lender with respect thereto (any of such events herein referred to as a “Rights Offering”), and the Lender shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice to elect to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture into Common Shares at the then applicable Conversion Price and otherwise on terms and conditions set out in this Debenture. If the Lender elects to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the record date for the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. If the Lender elects not to convert any of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, there shall continue to be an adjustment to the Conversion Price as a result of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants, in the manner hereinafter provided. The Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:

 

  (a) the numerator of which is the aggregate of:

 

  (i) the number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and
     
  (ii) the number determined by dividing the product of the Per Share Cost and:

 

  (A) where the event giving rise to the application of this Section 4.3(2) was the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase additional Common Shares, the number of Common Shares so subscribed for or purchased during the Rights Period, or
     
  (B) where the event giving rise to the application of this Section 4.3(2) was the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of Common Shares under which such holders are entitled to subscribe for or purchase securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares, the number of Common Shares for which those securities so subscribed for or purchased during the Rights Period could have been exchanged or into which they could have been converted during the Rights Period,

 

by the Current Market Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Common Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and

 

  (b) the denominator of which is

 

  (i) in the case described in subparagraph 4.3(2)(a)(ii)(A), the number of Common Shares outstanding, or

 

  (ii) in the case described in subparagraph 4.3(2)(a)(ii)(B), the number of Common Shares that would be outstanding if all the Common Shares described in subparagraph 4.3(2)(a)(ii)(B) had been issued,

 

as at the end of the Rights Period.

Current Market Price” of the Common Shares at any date, means the volume weighted average trading price at which the Common Shares have traded on the Exchange or, if the Common Shares are not listed on any stock exchange, then on the over-the-counter market, for any 20 consecutive trading days selected by the Borrower commencing not later than 45 trading days and ending no later than five (5) trading days before such date; provided, however, if such Common Shares are not traded during such 45 day period for at least 20 consecutive trading days, the simple average of the following prices established for each of 20 consecutive trading days selected by the Borrower commencing not later than 45 trading days before such date:

 

  (a) the average of the bid and ask prices for each day on which there was no trading, and
     
  (b) the closing price of the Common Shares for each day that there was trading,

 

or in the event that at any date the Common Shares are not listed on the Exchange or on the over-the-counter market, the current market price shall be as determined by the directors of the Borrower or such firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by the directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably, and in good faith in their sole discretion for these purposes, the weighted average price for any period shall be determined by dividing the aggregate sale prices during such period by the total number of Common Shares sold during such period.

 

Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or affiliate (as defined in the Securities Act (Ontario)) of the Borrower will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation under this Section 4.3(2).

 

If by the terms of the rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 4.3(2), there is more than one purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase, or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible securities so offered, will be calculated for purposes of the adjustment on the basis of

 

  (a) the lowest purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, as the case may be, if such price is applicable to all Common Shares which are subject to the rights, options or warrants, and
     
  (b) the average purchase, conversion or exchange price per Common Share, as the case may be, if the applicable price is determined by reference to the number of Common Shares acquired.

 

To the extent that any adjustment in the Conversion Price occurs pursuant to this Section 4.3(2) as a result of the fixing by the Borrower of a record date for the distribution of rights, options or warrants referred to in this Section 4.3(2), the Conversion Price will be readjusted immediately after the expiration of any relevant exchange, conversion or exercise right to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares actually issued and remaining issuable after such expiration, and will be further readjusted in such manner upon expiration of any further such right.

 

If the Lender has exercised its Conversion Right, or the Borrower has exercised the Accelerated Conversion Right, in accordance herewith during the Rights Period, the Lender will, in addition to the Common Shares to which it is otherwise entitled upon such exercise, be entitled to that number of additional Common Shares equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, between the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to, and the Conversion Price in effect immediately following the end of such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 4.3(2), is multiplied by the number of Common Shares received upon the exercise of the Conversion Right or Accelerated Conversion Right during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 4.3(2); provided that no fractional Common Shares will be issued. Such additional Common Shares will be deemed to have been issued to the Lender immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Common Shares will be delivered to the Lender within ten Business Days following the end of the Rights Period.

 

A - 8
 

 

(3) If and whenever at any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of (i) shares of any class other than Common Shares (or other than securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares), or (ii) rights, options or warrants (other than rights, options or warrants referred to in Section 4.3(2)), or (iii) evidences of its indebtedness, or (iv) assets (other than dividends paid in the ordinary course) then, in each such case, the Borrower shall give written notice to the Lender with respect thereto, and the Lender shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice to elect to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture into Common Shares at the then applicable Conversion Price and otherwise on terms and conditions set out in this Debenture. If the Lender elects to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the record date for the making of such distribution. If the Lender elects not to convert any of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, there shall continue to be an adjustment to the Conversion Price as a result of the making of such distribution, (herein referred to as a “Special Distribution”) determined in the manner hereafter set out. In this Section 4.3(3) the term “dividends paid in the ordinary course” shall include the value of any securities or other property or assets distributed in lieu of cash dividends paid in the ordinary course at the option of shareholders.

 

The Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after such record date to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:

 

  (a) the numerator of which is:

 

  (i) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; less
     
  (ii) the aggregate fair market value (as determined by action of the directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably) to the holders of the Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and

 

  (b) the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date.

 

Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or affiliate (as defined in the Securities Act (Ontario)) of the Borrower will be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation.

 

(4) In the case of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding Common Shares pursuant to a Merger, if the Lender elects not to redeem this Debenture in accordance with Section 3.1, the Lender may elect, prior to the effective date of such Merger, to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture into Common Shares at the then applicable Conversion Price and otherwise on terms and conditions set out in this Debenture. To exercise such right the Lender must provide a notice in writing to the Borrower no later than seven (7) days prior to the effective date of such Merger, failing which the Lender’s right to convert this Debenture as a consequence of such Merger shall cease. If the Lender elects to convert any or all of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, such conversion shall occur immediately prior to the effective date of such Merger. If the Lender elects not to convert any of the Principal Amount of this Debenture, the Conversion Price in effect after the effective date of such Merger shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in proportion to any decrease or increase in the number of outstanding Common Shares resulting from such Merger so that the Lender, upon exercising the Conversion Right or upon the Accelerated Conversion Right being exercised after the effective date of such Merger, will be entitled to receive the aggregate number of Common Shares or other securities, if any, which the Lender would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Merger if, on the effective date thereof, the Lender had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which the Lender was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Conversion Right or Accelerated Conversion Right.

 

A - 9
 

 

(5) In the case of any reclassification of, or other change in, the outstanding Common Shares (other than a change referred to in Section 4.3(1), Section 4.3(2), Section 4.3(3) or 4.3(4) hereof), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, as the Board of Directors of the Borrower determines to be appropriate on a basis consistent with the intent of this Section 4.3; provided that if at any time a dispute arises with respect to adjustments provided for in this Article 4, such dispute will be conclusively determined by the auditors of the Borrower or if they are unable or unwilling to act, by such other firm of independent chartered accountants as may be selected by action of directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably, and any such determination will be binding on the Borrower and the Lender. The Borrower will provide such auditors or accountants with access to all necessary records of the Borrower. If and whenever at any time after the date hereof there is a reclassification or redesignation of the Common Shares outstanding at any time or change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities (other than as set out in Section 4.3(1), (2), (3) or (4)), or a consolidation, amalgamation or Merger of the Borrower with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a consolidation, amalgamation or Merger which does not result in any reclassification or redesignation of the outstanding Common Shares or a change of the Common Shares into other shares and other than as set forth in Section 4.3(4)), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Borrower as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), the Lender, upon the exercise of the Conversion Right or Accelerated Conversion Right, after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization, will be entitled to receive in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which the Lender was theretofore entitled upon such exercise, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property, if any, which the Lender would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the Lender had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such Lender was theretofore entitled upon exercise of the Conversion Right or Accelerated Conversion Right. If determined appropriate by action of the directors of the Borrower, appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Section 4.3 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Lender to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 4.3 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Conversion Right or Accelerated Conversion Right. Any such adjustment must be made by and set forth in an amendment to this Debenture approved by action of the directors of the Borrower, acting reasonably, and will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment.

 

(6) In any case in which this Section 4.3 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Borrower may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Lender before the occurrence of such event, the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender an appropriate instrument evidencing the Lender’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the Issue Date or such later date as the Lender would, but for the provisions of this Section 4.3(6), have become the holder of such additional Common Shares pursuant to Section 4.3(2).

 

(7) The adjustments provided for in this Section 4.3 are cumulative and shall apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issuances or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price then in effect; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4.3(7) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and included in any subsequent adjustment.

 

Section 4.4 No Requirement to Issue Fractional Common Shares

 

The Borrower shall not be required to issue fractional Common Shares upon the conversion of the Debenture pursuant to this Article 4. If any fractional interest in a Common Share, would, except for the provisions of this Section 4.4, be deliverable upon the conversion of any amount hereunder, the number of Common Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Common Share.

 

A - 10
 

 

Section 4.5 Borrower to Reserve Common Shares

 

The Borrower covenants with the Lender that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Shares, solely for the purpose of issue upon exercise of the Conversion Right or Accelerated Conversion Right, and conditionally allot to the Lender, such number of Common Shares as shall then be issuable upon the conversion of this Debenture. The Borrower covenants with the Lender that all Common Shares which shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable upon issuance.

 

Section 4.6 Certificate as to Adjustment

 

The Borrower shall from time to time, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in Section 4.3, deliver an officer's certificate to the Lender specifying the nature of the event requiring the same and the amount of the adjustment necessitated thereby and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Subject to the dispute resolution procedure in subsection 4.3(5), such certificate shall be binding and determinative of the adjustment to be made, absent manifest error.

 

Section 4.7 Shareholder of Record

 

For all purposes, on the Issue Date the Lender shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Common Shares into which the Principal Amount of this Debenture (or a portion thereof) is converted in accordance with Section 4.2.

 

Section 4.8 Resale Restrictions, Legending and Disclosure

 

By its acceptance hereof the Lender acknowledges that this Debenture and the Common Shares issuable upon conversion hereof will be subject to certain resale restrictions under applicable securities laws, and the Lender agrees to comply with all such restrictions and laws. The Lender further acknowledges and agrees that all Common Share certificates will bear the legend substantially in the form set forth on the face page hereof as well as any legends required by the Exchange, provided that such legend shall not be required on Common Share certificates issued at any time following four months plus one day from the Closing Date. The Lender acknowledges that the Borrower will be required to provide to the applicable securities regulatory authorities the identity and other personal information of the Lender and its principals and the Lender hereby agrees thereto.

WARRANT CERTIFICATE

 

● WARRANTS

TO PURCHASE SUBORDINATE VOTING SHARES OF

 

HARVEST HEALTH & RECREATION INC.

 

Certificate No. W-2019- []

 

THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT for value received [] (the “Holder”) is the registered holder of the number of Warrants stated above (each a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”) and is entitled, from and after the date of issue (the “Issue Date”), for each Warrant represented by this certificate (this “Warrant Certificate”) to purchase one subordinate voting share (each a “Warrant Share”) of Harvest Health & Recreation Inc. (the “Corporation”) at a price per Warrant Share equal to [$●] (the “Exercise Price”), upon and subject to the following terms and conditions.

 

The Warrants and the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any state securities laws. The Warrants may not be transferred or exercised in the United States (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) unless the Warrants and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available and established as set forth in this Warrant Certificate.

 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

1. At any time and from time to time at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the date that is 36 months from the date of issue (the “Expiry Time”), the Holder may exercise all or any number of Warrants represented hereby, upon delivering the Warrant Certificate to the Corporation at its principal office at 627 S. 48th St. Suite 100, Tempe, AZ, 85281, together with a duly completed and executed subscription notice in the form attached hereto as Schedule “A” (the “Subscription Notice”) evidencing the election of the Holder to exercise the number of Warrants set forth in the Subscription Notice (which shall not be greater than the number of Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate) and a certified cheque, money order or bank draft or other form of payment acceptable to the Corporation in immediately available funds payable to the Corporation for the aggregate Exercise Price of all Warrants being exercised. If the Holder is not exercising all Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, without charge, a new Warrant Certificate representing the number of Warrants which is the difference between the number of Warrants represented by the then original Warrant Certificate and the number of Warrants being so exercised.
   
2. The Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares on the date (the “Exercise Date”) on which the Corporation has received a duly completed Subscription Notice, delivery of the Warrant Certificate and payment of the full aggregate Exercise Price in respect of the Warrants being exercised pursuant to such Subscription Notice; provided, however, that if such date is not a day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or statutory or civic holiday in the City of Toronto, Ontario or Phoenix Arizona (each, a “Business Day”) then the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued and the Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares on the next following Business Day.

 

 
- 2 -

 

Within two Business Days of the Exercise Date, the Corporation shall issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder, by registered mail or pre-paid courier to his, her or its address specified in the Subscription Notice, one or more certificates or direct registration statements for the appropriate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to the exercise of Warrants. All costs, expenses and other charges payable in connection with the issue and delivery of the Warrant Shares shall be at the sole expense of the Corporation (other than the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price and any taxes including withholding tax, if any).

 

3. The Corporation represents and warrants that: (a) this Warrant Certificate is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Corporation, enforceable against the Corporation in accordance with its terms; and (b) the Warrants have been duly and validly created and issued and the Warrant Shares have been reserved and authorized and allotted for issuance to the holders of the Warrants and, upon the due exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant Certificate, the Warrant Shares will be validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable subordinate voting shares (“Subordinate Voting Shares”) in the capital of the Corporation. The Corporation hereby further covenants and agrees that, while any of the Warrants shall be outstanding, the Corporation shall (a) comply in all material respects with the securities legislation applicable to it; (b) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and maintain its corporate existence; (c) at its own expense, use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain its status as a reporting issuer (or the equivalent) not in default in the case of each of the provinces and territories of Canada providing for such regime and in which the Corporation is a reporting issuer from time to time; and (d) make all requisite filings under applicable laws and the policies of any applicable stock exchange in connection with the exercise of the Warrants and issue of Warrant Shares.
   
4. Nothing contained herein shall confer on the Holder or any other person any right to subscribe for or purchase Warrant Shares or any other securities of the Corporation at any time after the Expiry Time and, from and after such time, these Warrants and all rights hereunder shall be void and of no value.
   
5. The Holder shall have no rights whatsoever as a shareholder (including any rights to receive dividends or other distribution to shareholders or to vote at a meeting of shareholders of the Corporation) other than regarding those Warrant Shares in respect of which the Holder shall have exercised its right to purchase hereunder in accordance which the terms of this Warrant Certificate.
   
6. Upon the receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant Certificate and, if requested by the Corporation, upon delivery of a bond of indemnity satisfactory to the Corporation (or, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate), the Corporation will issue to the Holder a replacement certificate representing these Warrants (containing the same terms and conditions as this Warrant Certificate).
   
7. The Corporation shall not be required to issue fractional Warrant Shares in satisfaction of its obligations hereunder. All fractional interests shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number and no amount shall be payable by the Corporation in respect of any such fraction of a Warrant Share.
   
8. In this Warrant Certificate, “Current Market Price” at any date shall mean the weighted average trading price per Subordinate Voting Share at which the Subordinate Voting Shares have traded on the principal stock exchange or over-the-counter market on which the Subordinate Voting Shares are listed or posted for trading during the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days prior to the date on which the Current Market Price must be determined or, if the Subordinate Voting Shares are not listed on a recognized Canadian stock exchange or an over-the-counter market, the Current Market Price shall be as determined by the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith after consultation with a nationally or internationally recognized and independent investment dealer, investment banker or firm of chartered accountants. In this Section 8, the terms “record date” and “effective date” shall mean as of the close of business in Toronto, Ontario on the relevant date.

 

 
- 3 -

 

9. The rights to acquire Warrant Shares in effect at any date attaching to the Warrants are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

 

  (a) if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time the Corporation fixes a record date in order to:

 

  (i) subdivide, redivide or change its then outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares into a greater number of outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares;
     
  (ii) consolidate, reduce or combine its outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares into a smaller number of Subordinate Voting Shares; or
     
  (iii) issue Subordinate Voting Shares or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares (collectively, “convertible securities”) to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares by way of a stock distribution, stock dividend or otherwise;

 

any of such events in these clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) being called a “Subordinate Voting Share Reorganization”, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted on the earlier of the record date on which holders of Subordinate Voting Shares are determined for the purposes of the Subordinate Voting Share Reorganization and the effective date of the subdivision, redivision, change, consolidation, reduction or combination or on the record date for the issue of Subordinate Voting Shares or convertible securities by way of stock distribution, stock dividend or otherwise, by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares previously issuable upon the exercise of a Warrant by the fraction of which:

 

  (A) the numerator is the total number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding immediately after such record date or effective date, or, in the case of the issuance of convertible securities, the total number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding immediately after such date plus the total number of Subordinate Voting Shares issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such convertible securities; and
     
  (B) the denominator is the total number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding immediately prior to the applicable record date or effective date (including in the case of the issue or distribution of securities exchangeable or exercisable or convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares the number of Subordinate Voting Shares for or into which such securities may be exchanged, exercised, or converted)

 

and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted at the same time by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such event by the inverse of the aforesaid fraction. The Corporation shall make such adjustment successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 9(a) occurs and any such issue of Subordinate Voting Shares or convertible securities by way of a stock dividend is deemed to have occurred on the record date for the stock dividend for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares under this Section 9(a). Any Subordinate Voting Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such calculation. If the Holder has not exercised its right to subscribe for and purchase Subordinate Voting Shares on or prior to the record date of the Subordinate Voting Share Reorganization or the effective date of such Subordinate Voting Share Reorganization as the case may be, upon the exercise of such right thereafter, the Holder shall be entitled to receive and shall accept in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares then subscribed for and purchased by the Holder, at the Exercise Price determined in accordance with this Section 9(a), the aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares that the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Voting Share Reorganization, if, on such record date or effective date, as the case may be, such Holder had been the holder of record of the number of Subordinate Voting Shares so subscribed for and purchased.

 

 
- 4 -

 

  (b) if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all of the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issue (“Rights Period”), to subscribe for or acquire Subordinate Voting Shares or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into Subordinate Voting Share at a price per Subordinate Voting Share to the Holder (or in the case of securities exchangeable, exercisable, or convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares, at an exchange, exercise, or conversion price per Subordinate Voting Share) of less than 95% of the Current Market Price for the Subordinate Voting Shares on such record date (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date for such Rights Period to a number determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise thereof immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:

 

  (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding after giving effect to the Rights Offering; and
     
  (ii) the denominator of which shall be the aggregate of:

 

  (A) the number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding as of the record date for the Rights Offering; and
     
  (B) a number determined by dividing (1) the product of the number of Subordinate Voting Shares issued or subscribed during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants, or options under the Rights Offering (including in the case of the issue or distribution of securities exchangeable or exercisable or convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares the number of Subordinate Voting Shares for or into which such securities may be exchanged, exercised, or converted) and the price at which such Subordinate Voting Shares are offered by (2) the Current Market Price of the Subordinate Voting Shares as of the record date for the Rights Offering

 

and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted at the same time by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by the inverse of the aforesaid fraction. Any Subordinate Voting Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such calculation. To the extent that any rights, options or warrants so distributed are not exercised, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be readjusted to the number of Subordinate Voting Shares that would then be in effect based upon the shares, rights, options, or warrants actually distributed or based upon the number of Subordinate Voting Shares or other securities actually delivered upon the exercise of the rights, options or warrants, as the case may be, but subject to any other adjustment required hereunder by reason of any event arising after the record date;

 

  (c) if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issue or distribute to all or to substantially all the holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares:

 

  (i) securities of the Corporation of any class other than Subordinate Voting Shares or convertible securities, or rights, options or warrants;
     
  (ii) evidences of indebtedness of the Corporation; or
     
  (iii) any cash, property or other assets of the Corporation;

 

and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute a Subordinate Voting Share Reorganization or a Rights Offering (any of such non-excluded events being herein called a “Special Distribution”), the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted effective immediately after the record date at which the holders of affected Subordinate Voting Shares are determined for purposes of the Special Distribution to a number determined by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise thereof in effect on such record date by a fraction:

 

 
- 5 -

 

 

 

(iv) the numerator of which shall be the number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price of the Subordinate Voting Shares on such record date; and
     
  (v) the denominator of which shall be:

 

  (A) the product of the number of Subordinate Voting Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Subordinate Voting Shares on such record date; less
     
  (B) the fair market value on such record date, as determined by the directors acting reasonably and in good faith (whose determination shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive), of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution;

 

and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted immediately after such record date by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect on such record date by the inverse of the aforesaid fraction. Any Subordinate Voting Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such calculation. To the extent that the distribution of other securities, evidences of indebtedness or assets is not so made or any such securities so distributed that are exercisable for Subordinate Voting Shares or convertible securities are not exercised, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be readjusted to the number of Warrant Shares that would then be in effect based upon the other securities, evidences of indebtedness or assets actually distributed or based upon the number of Subordinate Voting Shares or convertible securities actually delivered upon the exercise of any such securities so distributed that are exercisable for Subordinate Voting Shares or convertible securities, as the case may be, but subject to any other adjustment required hereunder by reason of any event arising after the record date; and

 

  (d) if and whenever at any time from the date hereof and prior to the Expiry Time there is a reclassification or redesignation of the Subordinate Voting Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation other than as described in Section 9(a) or a consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale, transfer, or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety (any such event being herein called a “Capital Reorganization”), the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and shall accept, in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants to which it was previously entitled, the kind and number of securities or property that the Holder would have been entitled to receive on such Capital Reorganization, if, on the effective date thereof, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants then held, subject to adjustment thereafter in accordance with provisions the same, as nearly as may be possible, as those contained in this Section 9. The Corporation shall not carry into effect any action requiring an adjustment pursuant to this Section 9(d) unless all necessary steps have been taken so that the Holder is thereafter entitled to receive such kind and number of securities or property. The Corporation, its successor, or the purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance, execute and deliver to the Holder a warrant certificate which provides, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder to the end that the provisions set forth in this Warrant Certificate are correspondingly made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which the Holder is entitled on the exercise of its acquisition rights thereafter.

 

 
- 6 -

 

10. The following rules and procedures shall be applicable to adjustments made pursuant to Section 9:

 

  (a) where Section 9 requires that an adjustment becomes effective immediately after a record date or effective date, as the case may be for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of that event, issuing to the Holder exercising its acquisition rights after the record date or effective date, as the case may be and before the occurrence of that event the adjusted number of Warrant Shares, other securities or property issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants by reason of the adjustment required by that event. If the Corporation relies on this Section 10(a) to defer issuing an adjusted number of Warrant Shares, other securities or property to the Holder, the Holder has the right to receive any distributions made on the adjusted number of Warrant Shares (in connection with the Warrant Shares comprising the Warrants), other securities or property declared in favour of shareholders of record on and after the date of exercise or such later date as the Holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 10(a), have become the holder of record of the adjusted number of Warrant Shares, other securities or property pursuant to Section 9;
     
  (b) the adjustments provided for in Section 9 are cumulative and, subject to Section 10(c), shall apply (without duplication) to successive issues, subdivisions, combinations, consolidations, distributions and any other events that require adjustment under Section 9. After any adjustment pursuant to Section 9, the term “Warrant Share” where used in this Warrant Certificate is interpreted to mean securities of any class or classes which, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to Section 9, the Holder is entitled to receive upon the exercise of its Warrant, and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon any exercise made pursuant to a Warrant is interpreted to mean the number of Warrant Shares the Holder is entitled to receive, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to Section 9, upon the full exercise of a Warrant;
     
  (c) no adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% in the prevailing Exercise Price and no adjustment shall be made in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant Certificate unless it would result in a change of at least one one-hundredth of a Warrant Share; provided, however, that any adjustments which, except for the provisions of this Section 10(c) would otherwise have been required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. Notwithstanding any other provisions of Section 9, no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made which would result in an increase in the Exercise Price or a decreased in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (except in respect of the Subordinate Voting Share Reorganization in Section 9(a) or a Capital Reorganization in Section 9(d).
     
  (d) in the event of a question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for herein, that question shall be conclusively determined by auditors mutually agreed upon by the Corporation and the Holder who shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation, and a determination by the auditors shall, absent manifest error, be binding upon the Corporation, the Holder and all other persons interested therein;
     
  (e) no adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants shall be made in respect of any event described in Section 9, other than the events referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of Section 9(a) hereof, if the Holder is entitled to participate in such event on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as if the Holder had exercised the Warrants prior to or on the effective date or record date of such event, subject in all cases to such stock exchange or other regulatory approval as may be required;
     
  (f)

in the event that the Corporation after the date of issue of the Warrants shall take any action affecting the Subordinate Voting Shares, other than an action described in Section 9, which in the opinion of the directors of the Corporation, acting reasonably and in good faith, would materially affect the rights of the Holder, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time, by action of the directors, in their sole discretion acting reasonably and in good faith, as they may determine to be equitable in the circumstances, but subject in all cases to such stock exchange or other regulatory approval as may be required. Failure of the taking of action by the directors so as to provide for an adjustment on or prior to the effective date of any action by the Corporation affecting the Subordinate Voting Shares shall be conclusive evidence that the board of directors of the Corporation has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances;

 

 
- 7 -

 

  (g) if the Corporation shall set a record date to determine the holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or any subscription or exercise rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend, distribution or subscription or exercise rights, abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution or subscription or exercise rights, then no adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of any Warrant shall be required by reason of the setting of such record date;
     
  (h) no adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants shall be made in respect of the issue of Subordinate Voting Shares pursuant to:

 

  ( ) the exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this Warrant Certificate; or

 

  (ii) any stock option, stock option plan or stock purchase plan in force at the date hereof for directors, officers, employees, advisers or consultants of the Corporation, as such option or plan is amended or superseded from time to time in accordance with the requirements of the principal Canadian stock exchange or over-the-counter market on which the Subordinate Voting Shares are then listed or quoted for trading and applicable securities laws, and such other stock option, stock option plan or stock purchase plan as may be adopted by the Corporation in accordance with the requirements of the principal Canadian stock exchange or over-the-counter market on which the Subordinate Voting Shares are then listed or quoted for trading and applicable securities laws;

 

and any such issue shall be deemed not to be a Share Reorganization, a Rights Offering or a Special Distribution;

 

  (i) in the absence of a resolution of the directors fixing a record date for a Special Distribution or Rights Offering, the Corporation shall be deemed to have fixed as the record date therefor the date on which the Special Distribution or Rights Offering is effected; and
     
  (i) as a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require any adjustment in any of the subscription rights pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, including the Exercise Price and the number or class of Warrant Shares or other securities which are to be received upon the exercise thereof, the Corporation shall take any corporate action which may, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Corporation or the Holder, be necessary in order that the Corporation have unissued and reserved Subordinate Voting Shares in its authorized capital, and may validly and legally issue as fully paid and non-assessable all the Subordinate Voting Shares and/or other securities which the holder of such Warrant Certificate is entitled to receive on the full exercise thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 

11. On the happening of each and every such event set out in Section 9, the applicable provisions of this Warrant Certificate shall, ipso facto, be deemed to be amended accordingly and the Corporation shall take all necessary action so as to comply with such provisions as so amended.
   
12. At least 10 Business Days prior to the effective date or record date, as the case may be, of any event which requires or might require adjustment in any of the subscription rights pursuant to this Warrant Certificate, including the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares which are issuable upon the exercise thereof, or such longer period of notice as the Corporation shall be required to provide holders of Subordinate Voting Shares in respect of any such event, the Corporation shall notify the Holder of the particulars of such event and, if determinable, the required adjustment and the computation of such adjustment. In case any adjustment for which such notice has been given is not then determinable, the Corporation shall promptly after such adjustment is determinable notify the Holder of the adjustment and the computation of such adjustment.

 

 
- 8 -

 

13. The Corporation shall not enter into any transaction whereby all or substantially all of its undertaking, property and assets would become the property of any other corporation (herein called a “successor corporation”) whether by way of reorganization, reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, transfer, sale, disposition or otherwise, unless prior to or contemporaneously with the consummation of such transaction the Corporation and the successor corporation shall have executed such instruments and done such things as, in the opinion of counsel to the Holder, are necessary or advisable to establish that upon the consummation of such transaction:

 

  (a) the successor corporation will have assumed all the covenants and obligations of the Corporation under this Warrant Certificate, and
     
  (b) this Warrant Certificate will be a valid and binding obligation of the successor corporation entitling the Holder, as against the successor corporation, to all the rights of the holder under this Warrant Certificate.

 

Whenever the conditions of this Section 13 shall have been duly observed and performed, the successor corporation shall possess, and from time to time may exercise, each and every right and power of the Corporation under this Warrant Certificate in the name of the Corporation or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision hereof required to be done or performed by any director or officer of the Corporation may be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of the successor corporation.

 

14. The Corporation shall maintain a register of holders in which shall be entered the names and addresses of the holders of the Warrants and of the number of Warrants held by them. Such register shall be open at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder. The Corporation shall notify the Holder forthwith of any change of address of the principal office of the Corporation.
   
15. Unless herein otherwise expressly provided, any notice to be given hereunder to the Holder shall be deemed to be validly given if such notice is given by personal delivery or registered mail to the attention of the Holder at its registered address recorded in the registers maintained by the Corporation. Any notice so given shall be deemed to be validly given, if delivered personally, on the day of delivery and if sent by post or other means, on the fifth Business Day next following the sending thereof. In determining under any provision hereof the date when notice of any event must be given, the date of giving notice shall be included and the date of the event shall be excluded.
   
16. Subject as herein provided, all or any of the rights conferred upon the Holder by the terms hereof may be enforced by the Holder by appropriate legal proceedings.
   
17. Warrant Certificates may be exchanged for certificates in any other denomination representing in the aggregate an equal number of Warrants as the number of Warrants represented by the Warrant Certificate(s) being exchanged. The Corporation shall sign all certificates necessary to carry out the exchanges contemplated herein. Any Warrant Certificates tendered for exchange shall be surrendered to the Corporation and cancelled.
   
18. The Warrants are transferable in accordance with this Section 18, and the term “Holder” shall mean and include any permitted successor, transferee or assignee of the Warrants. The Warrants may be transferred by the Holder completing and delivering to the Corporation the transfer form attached hereto as Schedule “B"; provided that all such transfers are made in compliance with all applicable securities laws and no transfer shall require that the Corporation prepare and file a prospectus, registration statement or similar document or to be registered with or to file any report or notice with any governmental or regulatory authority or to register the Warrants or the Warrants Shares or to otherwise comply with any continuous disclosure obligations under the applicable securities laws of any jurisdiction outside of Canada or to make any filings or seek any approvals of any kind whatsoever from any regulatory authority of any kind whatsoever in any jurisdiction outside of Canada.
   
19. This Warrant Certificate shall enure to the benefit of the Holder and the permitted successors and assignees thereof and shall be binding upon the Corporation and the successors thereof.

 

 
- 9 -

 

20. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise hereby may be offered, sold or otherwise transferred only in compliance with all applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules and policies.
   
21. The Corporation will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all other acts, deeds and assurances in law as may be reasonably required to effect the intentions and provisions of this certificate.
