PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
TO THE SHORT FORM BASE SHELF PROSPECTUS DATED NOVEMBER 22, 2019

New Issue

LOGO

APHRIA INC.

US$100,000,000

Common Shares

Aphria Inc. (the "Company", "we", "us", "our" or "Aphria") has entered into an equity distribution agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp. ("Canaccord"), Jefferies Securities, Inc. ("Jefferies" and with Canaccord, the "Canadian Agents"), Canaccord Genuity LLC ("Canaccord USA") and Jefferies LLC ("Jefferies USA" and with Canaccord USA, the "US Agents", and the Canadian Agents and US Agents are collectively referred to as the "Agents") dated July 29, 2020 (the "Equity Distribution Agreement"). The Equity Distribution Agreement relates to the sale of common shares ("Common Shares") in the capital of the Company offered by this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus. In accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, we may offer and sell Common Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to US$100,000,000.

The Common Shares are listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and on The NASDAQ Global Select Market (the "NASDAQ") under the symbol "APHA". On July 28, 2020, being the last trading day prior to the date of this Prospectus Supplement, the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX was $8.02, and the closing price on the NASDAQ was US$6.00.

Neither US Agent is registered as a dealer in any Canadian jurisdiction and, accordingly, the US Agents will only sell Common Shares on marketplaces in the United States and are not permitted to and will not, directly or indirectly, advertise or solicit offers to purchase any of the Common Shares in Canada. The Canadian Agents may only sell Common Shares on marketplaces in Canada. Sales by the Agents will only be made by transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 — Shelf Distributions ("NI 44-102") and Rule 415(a)(4) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), including, without limitation, sales made directly on the NASDAQ or TSX, or on any other existing trading market for the Common Shares in the United States or Canada. The Agents will make all sales using commercially reasonable efforts consistent with their normal sales and trading practices and on mutually agreed upon terms between the Agents and us. The Common Shares will be distributed at the market prices prevailing at the time of the sale of such Common Shares with no discount permitted, or in privately negotiated transactions. As a result, prices may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution.

        As compensation for their services in acting as agents in the sales of our Common Shares under this Prospectus Supplement, we will pay the Agents a cash fee of up to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sales of such Common Shares by the Agents, as applicable (the "Commission"). See "Plan of Distribution". In connection with the sale of the Common Shares on our behalf, the Agents may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation of the Agents may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts.


Table of Contents

We have applied to list the Common Shares offered by this Prospectus Supplement on the NASDAQ. Listing will be subject to our fulfillment of all the requirements of the NASDAQ. We have also applied to list the Common Shares offered by this Prospectus Supplement on the TSX. Listing will be subject to our fulfillment of all the requirements of the TSX.

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully read the "Risk Factors" section in this Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, as well as the information under the heading "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Information" in this Prospectus Supplement and consider such notes and information in connection with an investment in any securities.

We are permitted under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States to prepare this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada. Prospective investors in the United States should be aware that such requirements are different from those of the United States. The financial statements incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and are subject to audits conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and auditor independence standards. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.

Prospective investors should be aware that the acquisition of the securities described herein may have tax consequences both in Canada and the United States. Such consequences, for investors who are resident in, or citizens of, the United States, may not be described fully in this Prospectus Supplement. Investors should read the tax discussion in this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus and consult their own tax advisors with respect to their own particular circumstances. See the sections titled "Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations", "Certain U.S. Federal Income Taxation Considerations" and "Risk Factors".

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely because the Company is a corporation amalgamated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, and all of its executive offices, administrative activities and assets are located outside the United States. In addition, most of the directors and officers of the Company are residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and all or a substantial portion of the assets of those persons are or may be located outside the United States. See "Enforceability of Certain Civil Liabilities".

Messrs. Irwin D. Simon, Tom Looney, Walter Robb and David Hopkinson are directors of the Company, and each resides outside of Canada. Each of Messrs. Simon, Looney, Robb and Hopkinson has appointed Aphria at 98 Talbot St. W., Leamington, Ontario, N8H 1M8, as his agent for service of process in Canada. Prospective investors are advised that it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgments obtained in Canada against any person or company that is incorporated, continued or otherwise organized under the laws of a foreign jurisdiction or resides outside of Canada, even if the party has appointed an agent for service of process.

Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") nor any state or Canadian securities regulator has approved or disapproved the securities offered hereby; passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this Prospectus Supplement or determined if this Prospectus Supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The Company's head office is located at 98 Talbot Street West, Leamington, Ontario, N8H 1M8. Its registered office is located at 1 Adelaide Street East, Suite 2310, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 2V9.

No Agent, nor any affiliate of the Agents, nor any person or company acting jointly or in concert with the Agents, has over-allotted, or will over-allot, the Common Shares in connection with this offering or effect any other transactions that are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Common Shares.

There is no minimum amount of funds that must be raised under this offering. This means that we could complete this offering after raising only a small proportion of the offering amount set out above.

Certain of the forward-looking statements contained herein and incorporated by reference concerning the cannabis industry and the general expectations of Aphria concerning the cannabis industry and the Company's business and operations are based on estimates prepared by Aphria using data from publicly available governmental sources as well as from market research and industry analysis and on assumptions based on data and knowledge of this industry which Aphria believes to be reasonable. However, although generally indicative of relative market positions, market shares and performance characteristics, such data is inherently imprecise. While Aphria is not aware of any misstatement regarding any industry or government data presented herein, the cannabis industry involves risks and uncertainties and is subject to change based on various factors.

        Readers are cautioned that the above list of cautionary statements is not exhaustive. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from what is projected in forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the

novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") nationally and globally which could have a material adverse impact on Aphria's business, operations and financial results, including disruptions in cultivation and processing, supply chains and sales channels, as well as a deterioration of general economic conditions including national and/or global recessions and the response of governments to the COVID-19 pandemic in respect of the operation of retail stores; general economic conditions; adverse industry events; marketing costs; loss of markets; future legislative and regulatory developments involving cannabis or otherwise affecting Aphria's business or its consumers generally; inability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources, and/or inability to access sufficient capital on favorable terms; the cannabis industry in Canada generally; income tax and regulatory matters, including delays in the issuance of licenses; the sale and distribution of vapes; the ability of Aphria to meet its liquidity requirements to fund ongoing operations; the ability of Aphria to implement its business strategies; competition; crop failure; safety of derivative cannabis products; currency and interest rate fluctuations.

        The purpose of forward-looking statements is to provide the reader with a description of management's expectations, and such forward-looking statements may not be appropriate for any other purpose. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus Supplement or in any document incorporated by reference. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. The forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus Supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Investors should read this entire Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus, and consult their own professional advisors to ascertain and assess the income tax and legal risks and other aspects associated with holding Common Shares.

Business of the Company

        Aphria is licensed to cultivate, process and sell medical and adult-use cannabis and cannabis-derived extracts in Canada under the provisions of the Cannabis Act. The Company is also in the process of investing in and building out its cultivation, processing and distribution capabilities internationally.

Canadian Cannabis Operations

        The Company's domestic Canadian cannabis operations are comprised of its Aphria One greenhouse facility held through Aphria Inc., and facilities held through its wholly-owned British Columbia-based subsidiary, Broken Coast Cannabis Ltd. ("Broken Coast"), and its 51% majority-owned Leamington-based subsidiary, 1974568 Ontario Limited ("Aphria Diamond").

        Aphria One is the Company's original greenhouse facility, which is located in Leamington, Ontario. Aphria One is licensed to cultivate, process and sell medical and adult-use cannabis, cannabis-derived extracts and derivative cannabis products under the provisions of the Cannabis Act. Its current licence expires on March 20, 2023. Aphria One has also been granted a European Union Good Manufacturing Practices ("EU-GMP") certification as an active substance manufacturer (Part II — Medical Products) issued by the Malta Medicines Authority for the supply of bulk cannabis product for medicinal use to worldwide EU-GMP-certified facilities, where permissible.

        Broken Coast, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company acquired in February 2018, is licensed to cultivate, process, and sell medical and adult-use cannabis, cannabis-derived extracts and derivative cannabis products under the provisions of the Cannabis Act. Broken Coast's purpose-built, indoor cannabis production facility on Vancouver Island provides Aphria with 'B.C. Bud' and is one of the leading premium cannabis brands in Canada. Broken Coast's current licence expires March 13, 2023.

        Aphria Diamond is a 51% majority owned subsidiary of the Company, incorporated in November 2017. This entity is the Company's venture with Double Diamond Farms ("Double Diamond") and is licensed to cultivate cannabis under the provisions of the Cannabis Act. Aphria Diamond's current licence expires November 1, 2020.

        ARA — Avanti Rx Analytics Inc. ("Avanti") currently holds four Canadian licences: (i) Cannabis Processing Licence; (ii) Cannabis Analytical Testing Licence; (iii) Drug Establishment Licence; and (iv) Medical Device Establishment Licence. In addition, Avanti received its EU-GMP certification in respect of medicinal products for human use and investigational medicinal products for human use (Part I — Medical Products) in January 2020. Avanti provides testing services to our Canadian cannabis operations and its Part II EU-GMP certification allows Avanti to process, package, label and test cannabis oil as well as package, label and test dried cannabis for medicinal use in permitted jurisdictions throughout the European Union and in any jurisdiction worldwide that recognizes the EU-GMP standards.

International Operations

        Outside of Canada, we have identified certain geographies that present opportunities to bring our expertise developed in the Canadian medical and adult-use markets and generate profitable growth.

        We currently have international operations in Germany, Italy, Malta, Colombia and Argentina as well as a strategic relationship in Denmark. In establishing our international footprint, we sought to create operational hubs in those countries where we identified the biggest opportunities for growth and designed our operations to ensure consistent, high quality supply of cannabis products as well as a distribution network. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's international operations contributed to the Company recording an impairment loss.

        In Europe, we established our primary hub in Germany. With our acquisition of CC Pharma GmbH ("CC Pharma"), we have access to an established distribution network throughout Europe. Currently, the majority of distribution activities for CC Pharma within Europe relates to the distribution of non-cannabis medical products with plans to incorporate medical cannabis products into the product assortment. We are also in the process of constructing cultivation and production operations in Germany. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Aphria Rx GmbH

Table of Contents

("Aphria Rx"), participated in the tender process conducted by the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices ("BfArM") to award licences for in-country cultivation and was one of three companies selected by the BfArM to receive a licence for the cultivation of medical cannabis in Germany. Aphria Rx was granted a total of five lots, the most available lots within the tender process, and we are the only Canadian licensed producer in Germany with the permission to grow all three strains of medical cannabis approved by the BfArM.

        In September 2018, we acquired licences in Latin America and the Caribbean. We identified Colombia as our hub for South America for business operations and the provision of cannabis and cannabis derivative products for the region.

Recent Developments

        On January 31, 2020, the Company closed a strategic investment from an institutional investor (the "Investor") for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $100 million. Pursuant to the offering, the Investor purchased 14,044,944 units of the Company at a price of $7.12 per unit. Each unit was comprised of one Common Share and one half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $9.26 for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the unit offering.

        Since November 30, 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of government and central bank interventions. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Future crises may be precipitated by any number of causes, including natural disasters, public health crises, geopolitical instability, changes to energy prices or sovereign defaults. These factors may impact the ability of the Company to obtain equity or debt financing in the future and, if obtained, on terms favorable to the Company. Increased levels of volatility and market turmoil can adversely impact the Company's operations and the value, and the price of the Common Shares could be adversely affected.

        On May 6, 2020, the Company's subsidiary, ASG Pharma Ltd. received its EU-GMP certification from the Malta Medicines Authority in respect of production of cannabis for medicinal and research purposes. The certification provides Aphria with the ability to ship bulk and finished dried flower, as well as bulk and finished cannabis oil for medicinal and research use in permitted jurisdictions throughout the European Union.

        On May 6, 2020, the Company announced the liquidation of its $39 million promissory note from GA Opportunities Corp. for proceeds to the Company of approximately $26 million.

        On May 8, 2020, the Company entered into privately negotiated exchange agreements with a limited number of investors outside of Canada, whereby the Company agreed to repurchase, and the investors agreed to sell, an aggregate of approximately $127.5 million principal amount of the Company's 5.25% convertible senior notes for approximately 18.7 million Common Shares and approximately $2.9 million in cash for accrued and unpaid interest. The transaction, which closed on May 13, 2020, reduced the Company's debt and eliminated $6.7 million (US$4.8 million) in annual cash interest costs.

        On May 26, 2020, Aphria announced that it would transfer its stock exchange listing from the NYSE to the NASDAQ, effective June 5, 2020, after market close. On June 8, 2020, the Common Shares began trading as a NASDAQ-listed security under the ticker symbol "APHA".

        On June 25, 2020, Aphria announced that it entered into a settlement agreement to resolve the outstanding dispute with Emblem Cannabis Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Emblem Corp. ("Emblem") and Aleafia Health Inc. in respect of the termination of the parties' wholesale cannabis supply agreement.

SUMMARY OF THE OFFERING

        This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus. It is not complete and may not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in the Common Shares. You should read this entire Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus carefully.

Aphria Inc.

Securities Offered:

 

Common Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to US$100,000,000 through the Agents, as sales agents.

Manner of Offering:

 

"At-the-market" offering that may be made from time to time through the Agents. Please see "Plan of Distribution" of this Prospectus Supplement.

Use of Proceeds:

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering, if any, for international expansion, working capital and general corporate purposes. Please see "Use of Proceeds" of this Prospectus Supplement.

Exchange Listing:

 

The Common Shares are listed on the TSX and on the NASDAQ under the symbol "APHA".

Risk Factors:

 

Investing in our Common Shares involves a high degree of risk. Please read the information contained in and incorporated by reference under the section titled "Risk Factors" of this Prospectus Supplement, and under similar headings in the other documents that are filed after the date hereof and incorporated by reference into this Prospectus Supplement.

        The US Agents may sell the Common Shares in the United States only and such sales will only be made by transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, including, without limitation, sales made directly on the NASDAQ, or on any other existing trading market for the Common Shares in the United States. The Canadian Agents may sell Common Shares only in Canada and pursuant to transactions that are deemed to be "at the market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102.


RISK FACTORS

        An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus, together with all of the other information contained in this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus, before purchasing our securities. The occurrence of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. In these circumstances, the market price of our Common Shares could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. These risks are not the only risks we face; risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Investors should also refer to the other information set forth or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus Supplement and the Prospectus. This Prospectus Supplement also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. See the section titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information".

Return on securities is not guaranteed.

        There is no guarantee that the Common Shares will earn any positive return in the short term or long term. A holding of Common Shares is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by holders whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. A holding of Common Shares is appropriate only for holders who have the capacity to absorb a loss of some or all of their holdings.

Table of Contents

Discretion of the use of proceeds.

        Management of the Company will have broad discretion with respect to the application of net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Common Shares under this Prospectus Supplement and may spend such proceeds in ways that do not improve the Company's results of operations or enhance the value of the Common Shares or its other securities issued and outstanding from time to time. Any failure by management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or cause the price of the securities of the Company issued and outstanding from time to time to decline.

Dilution.

        The Company may issue Common Shares in the future, which may dilute a shareholder's holdings in the Company. The Company's articles permit the issuance of an unlimited number of Common Shares, and shareholders will have no pre-emptive rights in connection with such further issuance. The Company's board of directors maintains discretion to determine the price and the terms of issue of further issuances. Issuances of the Company's securities may involve the issuance of a significant number of Common Shares at prices less than the current market price for the Common Shares. Issuances of substantial numbers of Common Shares, or the perception that such issuances could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Common Shares. Any transaction involving the issuance of Common Shares, or securities convertible into Common Shares, would result in dilution, possibly substantial, to security holders. Moreover, additional Common Shares will be issued by the Company on the exercise of options under the Company's stock option plan and upon the exercise of outstanding warrants.

        The Company may sell equity securities in offerings (including through the sale of securities convertible into equity securities). The Company cannot predict the size of such issuances of equity securities or the size and terms of future issuances of debt instruments or other securities convertible into equity securities or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of the Company's securities will have on the market price of the Common Shares.

        Sales of substantial amounts of the Company's securities by the Company or its existing shareholders, or the availability of such securities for sale, could adversely affect the prevailing market prices for the Company's securities and dilute investors' earnings per Common Share. Exercises of presently outstanding share options or warrants may also result in dilution to security holders. A decline in the market prices of the Company's securities could impair the Company's ability to raise additional capital through the sale of securities should the Company desire to do so.

Volatile market price of Common Shares.

        The market price of the Common Shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. This volatility may affect the ability of holders of Common Shares to sell their securities at an advantageous price.

        Market price fluctuations in the Common Shares may be due to the Company's results of operations failing to meet expectations of securities analysts or investors in any period, downward revision in securities analysts' estimates, adverse changes in general market conditions or economic trends, acquisitions, dispositions or other material public announcements by the Company, its competitors or, the government, along with a variety of additional factors. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. Financial markets historically at times experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of companies and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. Accordingly, the market price of the Common Shares may decline even if the Company's results of operations, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, the Company's operations could be adversely impacted, and the trading price of the Common Shares may be materially adversely affected.

We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

        The Company has not paid any dividends on the outstanding Common Shares, and the Company has no current intention to declare dividends on the Common Shares in the foreseeable future. Any decision to pay dividends on the Common Shares in the future will be at the discretion of the Company's board of directors and will depend on, among other things, the Company's results of operations, current and anticipated cash requirements and surplus, financial condition, any future contractual restrictions and financing agreement covenants, solvency tests imposed by corporate law and other factors that the Company's board of directors may deem relevant. Additionally, the Company's ability to pay dividends is currently restricted by the terms of its credit facilities with WFCU Credit Unit ("WFCU"), which requires that dividends may only be paid after satisfaction of all terms, conditions and covenants contained therein. As a result, investors may not receive any return on an investment in the Common Shares unless they are able to sell their Common Shares for a price greater than that which such investors paid for them.

Holders that own 10% or more of the vote or value of our Common Shares may suffer adverse tax consequences because we and/or any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries are expected to be characterized as a "controlled foreign corporation" ("CFC") under Section 957(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

        A non-U.S. corporation is considered a CFC if more than 50 percent of (1) the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such corporation entitled to vote, or (2) the total value of the stock of such corporation, is owned, or is considered as owned by applying certain constructive ownership rules, by United States shareholders (U.S. persons who own stock representing 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the non-U.S. corporation entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of shares of all classes of stock of such non-U.S. corporation) on any day during the taxable year of such non-U.S. corporation. Certain United States shareholders of a CFC generally are required to include currently in gross income such shareholders' share of the CFC's "Subpart F income", a portion of the CFC's earnings to the extent the CFC holds certain U.S. property, and a portion of the CFC's "global intangible low-taxed income" (as defined under Section 951A of the Code). Such United States shareholders are subject to current U.S. federal income tax with respect to such items, even if the CFC has not made an actual distribution to such shareholders. "Subpart F income" includes, among other things, certain passive income (such as income from dividends, interests, royalties, rents and annuities or gain from the sale of property that produces such types of income) and certain sales and services income arising in connection with transactions between the CFC and a person related to the CFC. "Global intangible low-taxed income" may include most of the remainder of a CFC's income over a deemed return on its tangible assets.

        As a result of certain changes in the U.S. tax law introduced by tax legislation enacted on December 22, 2017, entitled "an Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to titles II and V of the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2018", we believe that our non-U.S. subsidiary is classified as a CFC in the current taxable year. For Holders who hold 10% or more of the vote or value of our stock, this may result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, such as current U.S. taxation of Subpart F income and of any such shareholder's share of our accumulated non-U.S. earnings and profits (regardless of whether we make any distributions), taxation of amounts treated as global intangible low-taxed income under Section 951A of the Code with respect to such shareholder (regardless of whether we make any distributions), and being subject to certain reporting requirements with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Any such Holder who is an individual generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a U.S. corporation. If you are a Holder who holds 10% or more of the vote or value of our Common Shares, you should consult your own tax advisors regarding the U.S. tax consequences of acquiring, owning, or disposing of our Common Shares.

We may be a passive foreign investment company, which may result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. Holders of our Common Shares.

        The Company may be characterized as a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC"). Under the PFIC rules, for any taxable year that the Company's passive income or the Company's assets that produce passive income exceed specified levels, the Company will be characterized as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This characterization could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences for the Company's U.S. Holders (as defined in "Certain U.S. Federal Income Taxation Considerations"), which may include having certain

S-11


Table of Contents

distributions on the Common Shares and gains realized on the sale of Common Shares treated as ordinary income, rather than as capital gains income, and having potentially punitive interest charges apply to the proceeds of sales of Common Shares and certain distributions. Based on current business plans and financial expectations, although there can be no assurance, the Company expects that it will not be a PFIC for the Company's current taxable year and expect that it will not be a PFIC for the foreseeable future.

        Certain elections may be made to reduce or eliminate the adverse impact of the PFIC rules for holders of the Common Shares, but these elections may be detrimental and/or unavailable to the shareholders under certain circumstances. The PFIC rules are extremely complex and U.S. investors are urged to consult independent tax advisers regarding the potential consequences to them of the Company's classification as a PFIC.

Enforcement of judgments against foreign persons may not be possible.

        The Company is a corporation existing under the OBCA. Certain of the Company's directors and officers, and certain of the experts named in this Prospectus Supplement, are residents of Canada or otherwise reside outside the United States, and a portion of their assets and all of the Company's assets, are located outside the United States. The Company has appointed an agent for service of process in the United States, but it may be difficult for holders of the Common Shares who reside in the United States to effect service within the United States upon those directors, officers and experts who are not residents of the United States. It may also be difficult for holders of the Common Shares who reside in the United States to realize upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the Company's civil liability and the civil liability of its directors, officers and experts under the United States federal securities laws.

Public health crises.

        A public health crisis, such as local, regional, national or international epidemics, pandemics or outbreaks of illnesses, infectious diseases or viruses (including COVID-19) could cause interruptions to the Company's operations, increase operating expenses, result in loss of sales, delayed performance of contractual obligations or require additional expenditures to be incurred. Depending on its severity and reach, such an event could affect the Company's workforce resulting in the inability to continue to operate the Company's production facilities. Further, the Company's operations could be adversely affected if its supply partners, contractors, customers and/or transportation carriers were prevented from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to spread of the disease within these groups or due to shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. In addition, a health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, could have an adverse effect on local economies and potentially the global economy, which may adversely impact the price and demand for the Company's products, the market for the Company's securities and/or its ability to obtain financing.

        In particular, as of the date of this Prospectus Supplement, the full extent of the effects of COVID-19 are unknown. The continued spread of COVID-19 and the measures taken by the governments of countries affected could disrupt the supply chain and the manufacture or shipment of the Company's products and adversely impact the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will not lose members of its workforce or see its workforce man-hours reduced or incur increased medical costs as a result of these health risks. The effects of the pandemic on the Company's international operations contributed to the Company recording an impairment loss. The Company is actively assessing and responding, where possible, to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continued its operations throughout the crisis by implementing appropriate measures designed to protect the health and safety of its employees.

        In addition, at this time, persistent social distancing measures and restrictions imposed by the federal, provincial and territorial governments in Canada on the movement of individuals and the distribution of cannabis in the country may adversely affect the Company's cannabis sales. It is difficult to predict how the COVID-19 pandemic may affect the Company's business in the future, including the effect it may have (positive or negative; long or short term) on the price of, and demand for, cannabis. It is possible that the COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects as well as the market for its securities and/or its ability to obtain financing. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company's results will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the virus, the duration of the outbreak and the actions to contain its impact.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        The net proceeds from the offering are not determinable in light of the nature of the distribution. The net proceeds of any given distribution of Common Shares in an "at-the-market distribution" will represent the gross proceeds after deducting the compensation payable under the Equity Distribution Agreement and expenses of the distribution. The Agents will receive a cash fee of up to 3% of the aggregate gross proceeds realized from the sale of the Common Shares for services rendered in connection with the offering. We estimate the total expenses related to the commencement of the offering payable by us, excluding the Commission payable to the Agents under the Equity Distribution Agreement, will be approximately $200,000. Pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company has also agreed to reimburse the Agents for fees and expenses of counsel to the Agents, up to a maximum of US$100,000 (inclusive of disbursements and non-refundable taxes), and for other reasonable expenses of the Agents, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions under the Equity Distribution Agreement.

        We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for Canadian and international expansion or to repay indebtedness. The Company intends to spend the funds available to it as stated in this Prospectus Supplement; however, there may be circumstances where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be deemed prudent or necessary. Pending use of the net proceeds of this offering, such net proceeds will be invested in accordance with determinations made by our board of directors or certain executive officers.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OFFERED UNDER THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

        The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares. As of July 28, 2020, there were 288,179,564 Common Shares issued and outstanding, 5,925,472 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, 196,716 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding deferred share units, 1,740,752 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding restricted share units and 7,222,472 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants.

        The holders of the Common Shares are entitled to one vote per Common Share at all meetings of the shareholders of the Company. The holders of Common Shares are also entitled to dividends, if and when declared by the Company's board of directors and the distribution of the residual assets of the Company in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

        We have not paid any dividends to date on the Common Shares. We do not currently expect to pay any dividends on the Common Shares for the foreseeable future. Additionally, the Company's ability to pay dividends is currently restricted by the terms of its credit facilities with WFCU, which requires that dividends may only be paid after satisfaction of all terms, conditions and covenants contained therein.

        The registrar and transfer agent for the Common Shares is Computershare Investor Services Inc.


PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

        We have entered into the Equity Distribution Agreement with the Agents dated July 29, 2020, under which we may issue and sell our Common Shares from time to time up to an aggregate offering price of up to US$100,000,000 through the Agents in each of the provinces and territories in Canada and in the United States. The Equity Distribution Agreement is filed with the SEC and incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this Prospectus Supplement forms a part. Sales of our Common Shares, if any, under this Prospectus Supplement will be made by any method that is deemed to be an "at-the-market offering" as defined in NI 44-102 and Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the NASDAQ or other existing trading markets in the United States. Pursuant to the Decision: (a) the number of Common Shares sold on the TSX or another Canadian marketplace as at-the-market distributions on any trading day shall not exceed 25% of the trading volume of the Common Shares on the TSX and all other Canadian marketplaces on that day; and (b) Common Shares may be distributed under this Prospectus Supplement if the market value of the Common Shares distributed does not exceed 10% of the aggregate market value of the outstanding Common Shares as at the last trading day of the month before the month in which the first trade is made under this Prospectus Supplement, calculated in accordance with section 9.2 of NI 44-102. Other than the foregoing limits, we cannot predict the number of Common Shares that we may sell under the Equity Distribution Agreement on the TSX, the NASDAQ or any other trading market for the Common Shares in Canada or the United States, or if any Common Shares will be sold. At such time as when the 44-102 Amendments come into force on August 31, 2020, the foregoing limits will no longer apply to at-the-market distributions in Canada, and accordingly, to the Common Shares distributed under this Prospectus Supplement.

        When requested by us, the Agents will offer the Common Shares subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, which may be on a daily basis for periods of time, or as we may otherwise agree with the Agents. We may designate the maximum amount of Common Shares to be sold through the Agents when we request that the Agents do so. The Agents have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to execute our orders to sell, as our sales agents and on our behalf, our Common Shares submitted to the Agents from time to time by us, consistent with its normal sales and trading practices. We may instruct the Agents not to place Common Shares at or below a price designated by us. The Company or any Agent may suspend the offering of Common Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement upon proper notice to the other party, as applicable. The Common Shares will be distributed at the market prices prevailing at the time of the sale of such Common Shares with no discount permitted or in privately negotiated transactions. As a result, prices may vary as between purchasers and during the period of distribution.

        We will pay the Agents compensation for their services in acting as agents in the sale of the Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement equal to the Commission. The remaining sales proceeds, after deducting any expenses payable by us and any transaction or filing fees imposed by any

S-17


Table of Contents

governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization in connection with the sales, will equal the net proceeds to us from the sale of such Common Shares.

        The Agents will provide written confirmation to us no later than the opening of the trading day immediately following the trading day on which the Agents have made sales of the Common Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement. Each confirmation will include the number of Common Shares sold on such day, the average price of the Common Shares sold on such day, the gross proceeds, the Commission payable by us to the Agents with respect to such sales and the net proceeds payable to us.

        We will disclose the number and average price of the Common Shares sold under this Prospectus Supplement, as well as the gross proceeds, Commission and net proceeds from sales hereunder in our annual and interim financial statements and management's discussion and analysis filed on SEDAR and with the SEC, for any quarters in which sales of Common Shares occur.

        Settlement for sales of Common Shares will occur, unless the parties agree otherwise, on the second trading day on the applicable exchange following the date on which any sales were made in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement. Sales of Common Shares in the United States will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as the Company and the Agents may agree upon and sales of Common Shares in Canada will be settled through the facilities of CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. or by such other means as the Company and the Agents may agree upon.

        Neither US Agent is registered as a dealer in any Canadian jurisdiction and, accordingly, the US Agents will only sell Common Shares on marketplaces in the United States and are not permitted to and will not, directly or indirectly, advertise or solicit offers to purchase any of the Common Shares in Canada. The Canadian Agents may only sell Common Shares in Canada.

        In connection with the sales of the Common Shares on our behalf, an Agent may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act, as amended, and the compensation paid to the Agents may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. A purchaser's rights and remedies under applicable securities legislation against a dealer underwriting or acting as an agent for the issuer in an at-the-market distribution will not be affected by that dealer's decision to effect the distribution directly or through a selling agent. We have agreed in the Equity Distribution Agreement to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agents against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In addition, we have agreed to pay the reasonable expenses of the Agents in connection with the Offering, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions under the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Agents and their affiliates will not engage in any transactions to stabilize the price of our Common Shares. No underwriter or dealer involved in the at-the-market distribution, and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such underwriter or dealer, may, in connection with the distribution, enter into any transaction that is intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities or securities of the same class as the securities distributed under this Prospectus Supplement, including selling an aggregate number or principal amount of securities that would result in the underwriter or dealer creating an over-allocation position in the securities.

        The total expenses related to the commencement of the offering payable by us, excluding the Commission payable to the Agents under the Equity Distribution Agreement, are estimated to be approximately $200,000. Pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company has also agreed to reimburse the Agents for fees and expenses of counsel to the Agents, up to a maximum of US$100,000 (inclusive of disbursements and non-refundable taxes), and for other reasonable expenses of the Agents, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions under the Equity Distribution Agreement.

        The offering of Common Shares pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of all Common Shares subject to the Equity Distribution Agreement and (ii) the termination of the Equity Distribution Agreement according to its terms by the Agents or us.

        The Agents and their affiliates have in the past provided, and may in the future provide, various investment banking, commercial banking, financial advisory and other services to us and our affiliates and have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees. In the course of its business, the Agents may actively trade our securities for its own account or for the accounts of customers, and, accordingly, the Agents may at any time hold long or short positions in such securities.

CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        The following summary describes the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations that generally apply to a purchaser who acquires Common Shares. This summary applies only to a purchaser who acquires Common Shares as beneficial owner pursuant to this offering and who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") and the regulations thereunder (the "Regulations"): (i) deals at arm's length with the Company and the Agents; (ii) is not affiliated with the Company or the Agents; and (iii) holds the Common Shares as capital property (a "Holder"). Generally, the Common Shares will be capital property to a Holder provided the Holder does not acquire or hold them in the course of carrying on a business of buying and selling securities or as part of an adventure or concern in the nature of trade.

        This summary does not apply to: (i) a purchaser that is a "specified financial institution"; (ii) a purchaser an interest in which would be a "tax shelter investment"; (iii) a purchaser that is a financial institution for purposes of mark-to-market rules contained in the Tax Act; (iv) a purchaser that reports its "Canadian tax results" in a currency other than Canadian currency; (v) a purchaser that has entered into or will enter into with respect to the purchaser's Common Shares, a "derivative forward agreement" or a "synthetic disposition arrangement"; or (vi) a purchaser that is exempt from tax under Part I of the Tax Act, as such terms are defined for purposes of the Tax Act.

        This summary is based on the current provisions of the Tax Act and the Regulations and the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") made publicly available prior to the date hereof. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act and the Regulations publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the "Proposed Amendments") and assumes that all Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurances can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted as proposed, or at all. This summary does not otherwise take into account or anticipate any changes in law or administrative policy or assessing practice of the CRA whether by legislative, regulatory, administrative or judicial decision or action, nor does it take into account tax legislation or considerations of any province, territory, or foreign jurisdiction, which may be different from those discussed herein.

        This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any particular purchaser, and no representations with respect to the income tax consequences to any purchaser are made. This summary is not exhaustive of all Canadian federal income tax considerations. Prospective purchasers should consult their own tax advisors for advice with respect to the tax consequences to them of acquiring Common Shares pursuant to this offering having regard to their particular circumstances.

Currency Conversion

        For purposes of the Tax Act, all relevant amounts relating to the acquisition, holding or disposition of the Common Shares (including adjusted cost base, proceeds of disposition, and dividends, if any) must generally be expressed in Canadian dollars. Accordingly, amounts denominated in U.S. dollars must be converted into Canadian dollars based on the exchange rate quoted by the Bank of Canada on the date such amounts arise or such other rate of exchange as is acceptable to the Minister of National Revenue (Canada).

Holders Resident in Canada

        This portion of the summary only applies to a Holder who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act or any applicable income tax treaty or convention, is, or is deemed to be, resident in Canada (a "Resident Holder"). Certain Resident Holders who might not otherwise be considered to hold their Common Shares as capital property may, in certain circumstances, be entitled to have their Common Shares and all other "Canadian securities" (as defined in the Tax Act) owned or subsequently acquired by them treated as capital property by making the irrevocable election permitted by subsection 39(4) of the Tax Act. Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding this election.

S-19


Table of Contents

Dispositions of Common Shares

        On the disposition or deemed disposition of a Common Share (other than to the Company, unless purchased by the Company in the open market in the manner in which shares are normally purchased by any member of the public in the open market, in which case other considerations may arise), a Resident Holder will generally realize a capital gain (or a capital loss) equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition exceed (or are exceeded by) the aggregate of the Resident Holder's adjusted cost base of such Common Share and any reasonable costs of disposition. See "Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses" below.

Dividends on Common Shares

        A Resident Holder will be required to include in computing its income for a taxation year any dividends received (or deemed to be received) on the Common Shares during such taxation year. In the case of a Resident Holder who is an individual (other than certain trusts), such dividends will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules that apply to taxable dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations, including the enhanced gross-up and dividend tax credit applicable to any dividends designated by the Company as "eligible dividends" in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act. There may be limitations on the Company's ability to designate its dividends on the Common Shares as "eligible dividends".

        Taxable dividends received by a Resident Holder who is an individual (other than certain trusts) may result in such Resident Holder being liable for minimum tax under the Tax Act. Resident Holders who are individuals should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.

        In the case of a Resident Holder that is a corporation, such dividends received or deemed to be received on Common Shares held by the Resident Holder generally will be deductible in computing its taxable income. In certain circumstances, subsection 55(2) of the Tax Act will treat a taxable dividend received (or deemed to be received) by a Resident Holder that is a corporation as proceeds of disposition or a capital gain. Resident Holders that are corporations should consult their own tax advisors having regard to their own circumstances.

        Certain corporations, including a "private corporation" or a "subject corporation" (as such terms are defined in the Tax Act), may be liable to pay additional tax under Part IV of the Tax Act, which may be refundable, on dividends received (or deemed to be received) on Common Shares to the extent that such dividends are deductible in computing the corporation's taxable income for the taxation year. A Resident Holder that is, throughout the relevant taxation year, a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act) may be liable to pay an additional refundable tax on its "aggregate investment income" (as defined in the Tax Act), including any dividends or deemed dividends that are not deductible in computing the Resident Holder's taxable income.

Taxation of Capital Gains and Capital Losses

        Generally, a Resident Holder is required to include in computing its income for a taxation year one-half of the amount of any capital gain (a "taxable capital gain") realized in the year. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Act, a Resident Holder is required to deduct one-half of the amount of any capital loss (an "allowable capital loss") realized in a taxation year from taxable capital gains realized by the Resident Holder in the year. Allowable capital losses in excess of taxable capital gains realized in a taxation year may be carried back and deducted in any of the three preceding taxation years or carried forward and deducted in any subsequent taxation year against net taxable capital gains realized in such years to the extent and under the circumstances described in the Tax Act.

        The amount of any capital loss realized by a Resident Holder that is a corporation on the disposition of a Common Share may be reduced by the amount of any dividends received (or deemed to be received) by the Resident Holder on such Common Share or a share for which the Common Share is substituted or exchanged to the extent and under the circumstances described by the Tax Act. Similar rules may apply where a Common Share is owned by a partnership or trust of which a corporation, trust or partnership is a member or beneficiary. Such Resident Holders should consult their own advisors.

        A Resident Holder that is throughout the relevant taxation year a "Canadian-controlled private corporation" (as defined in the Tax Act) may also be liable to pay a refundable tax on its "aggregate investment income", which is defined in the Tax Act to include taxable capital gains.

S-20


Table of Contents

        Capital gains realized by a Resident Holder who is an individual (other than certain trusts) may give rise to a liability for minimum tax under the Tax Act. Resident Holders who are individuals should consult their own tax advisors in this regard.

Holders Not Resident in Canada

        This portion of the summary only applies to a Holder who, at all relevant times, for purposes of the Tax Act and any relevant tax treaty or convention, is not, and is not deemed to be, resident in Canada and does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold the Common Shares in a business carried on in Canada (a "Non-Resident Holder").

        Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a Holder that is (i) an insurer that carries on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere, or (ii) an "authorized foreign bank" (as defined in the Tax Act). Such Holders should consult their own tax advisors.

Dividends

        Dividends paid or credited on the Common Shares or deemed to be paid or credited on the Common Shares to a Non-Resident Holder will generally be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, subject to any reduction in the rate of withholding under any applicable income tax treaty or convention between Canada and the country of residence of the Non-Resident Holder.

        Where a Non-Resident Holder is a U.S. resident entitled to applicable benefits under the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the "Canada-U.S. Tax Treaty"), and is the beneficial owner of the dividends, the applicable rate of Canadian withholding tax is generally reduced to 15%. Non-Resident Holders who may be eligible for a reduced rate of withholding on dividends pursuant to any applicable income tax treaty or convention should consult with their own tax advisors.

Disposition of Common Shares

        Generally, a Non-Resident Holder will not be subject to tax under the Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized by such Non-Resident Holder on a disposition or deemed disposition of Common Shares nor will capital losses arising therefrom be recognized under the Tax Act, unless the Common Shares constitute "taxable Canadian property" (as defined in the Tax Act) of the Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition and the gain is not exempt from tax pursuant to the terms of an applicable income tax treaty or convention.

        Provided the Common Shares are listed on a "designated stock exchange" as defined in the Tax Act (which currently includes the TSX and the NASDAQ), at the time the Common Shares are disposed of, the Common Shares will generally not constitute taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder at a particular time, unless, at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding the disposition the following two conditions have been met concurrently: (i) the Non-Resident Holder, persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder did not deal with at arm's length, partnerships in which the Non-Resident Holder or persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder did not deal with at arm's length holds a membership interest, directly or indirectly, through one or more partnerships, or the Non-Resident Holder together with all such foregoing persons and partnerships, owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of the Company's capital stock, and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of the Common Shares was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of real or immovable property situated in Canada, "Canadian resource properties" (as defined in the Tax Act), "timber resource properties" (as defined in the Tax Act), or options in respect of, or interests in, or civil law rights in such property, whether or not such property exists.

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain circumstances set out in the Tax Act, Common Shares which are not otherwise taxable Canadian property could be deemed to be taxable Canadian property.

        If the Common Shares are taxable Canadian property to a Non-Resident Holder any capital gain realized on the disposition or deemed disposition of such Common Shares may not be subject to Canadian federal income tax pursuant to the terms of an applicable income tax treaty or convention between Canada and the country of residence of a Non-Resident Holder.

        A Non-Resident Holder whose Common Shares may be taxable Canadian property, should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the consequences of disposing of a Common Share.

CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION CONSIDERATIONS

        The following discussion describes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the ownership and disposition of Common Shares by U.S. Holders (as defined below). This discussion applies to U.S. Holders that purchase Common Shares pursuant to the offering and hold such Common Shares as capital assets. This discussion is based on the Code, U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to specific U.S. Holders in light of their particular circumstances or to U.S. Holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law (such as certain financial institutions, insurance companies, broker-dealers and traders in securities or other persons that generally mark their securities to market for U.S. federal income tax purposes, tax-exempt entities, retirement plans, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, certain former citizens or residents of the United States, holders who are subject to Section 451(b) of the Code, persons who hold Common Shares as part of a "straddle", "hedge", "conversion transaction", "synthetic security" or integrated investment, persons that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar, persons that own directly, indirectly or through attribution 10% or more of the voting power or value of our shares, corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax, partnerships and other pass-through entities (or arrangements treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), and investors in such pass-through entities). This discussion does not address any U.S. state or local or non-U.S. tax consequences or any U.S. federal estate, gift or alternative minimum tax consequences.

        As used in this discussion, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of Common Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (2) a corporation (or entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, (3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source or (4) a trust (x) with respect to which a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (y) that has elected under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a domestic trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

        If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Common Shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to an investment in the Common Shares will depend in part upon the status and activities of such entity or arrangement and the particular partner. Any such entity or arrangement should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to it and its partners of the purchase, ownership and disposition of Common Shares.

        Persons considering an investment in Common Shares should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences applicable to them relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of Common Shares, including the applicability of U.S. federal, state and local tax laws and non-U.S. tax laws.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Consequences

        In general, a corporation organized outside the United States will be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year in which either (1) at least 75% of its gross income is "passive income" (the "PFIC income test") or (2) on average at least 50% of its assets, determined on a quarterly basis, are assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income (the "PFIC asset test"). Passive income for this purpose generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, royalties, rents, and gains from the sale or exchange of property that gives rise to passive income. Assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income generally include cash, even if held as working capital or raised in a public offering, marketable securities, and other assets that may produce passive income. Generally, in determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, a proportionate share of the income and assets of each corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, at least a 25% interest (by value) is taken into account.

        We do not believe we were a PFIC for the year ending May 31, 2019. While we also do not believe we will be a PFIC for the current taxable year, because PFIC status is determined on an annual basis and generally cannot be determined until the end of the taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for

S-22


Table of Contents

the current taxable year. Because we may hold a substantial amount of cash and cash equivalents following this offering, and because the calculation of the value of our assets may be based in part on the value of Common Shares, which may fluctuate considerably, we may be a PFIC in future taxable years under the PFIC asset test. Even if we determine that we are not a PFIC for a taxable year, there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with our conclusion and that the IRS would not successfully challenge our position. Our status as a PFIC is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis. Accordingly, our U.S. counsel expresses no opinion with respect to our PFIC status and also expresses no opinion with regard to our expectations regarding our PFIC status.

        If we are a PFIC in any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder owns Common Shares, the U.S. Holder could be liable for additional taxes and interest charges under the "PFIC excess distribution regime" upon (1) a distribution paid during a taxable year that is greater than 125% of the average annual distributions paid in the three preceding taxable years, or, if shorter, the U.S. Holder's holding period for the Common Shares, and (2) any gain recognized on a sale, exchange or other disposition, including a pledge, of the Common Shares, whether or not we continue to be a PFIC. Under the PFIC excess distribution regime, the tax on such distribution or gain would be determined by allocating the distribution or gain ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for Common Shares. The amount allocated to the current taxable year (i.e., the year in which the distribution occurs or the gain is recognized) and any year prior to the first taxable year in which we are a PFIC will be taxed as ordinary income earned in the current taxable year. The amount allocated to other taxable years will be taxed at the highest marginal rates in effect for individuals or corporations, as applicable, to ordinary income for each such taxable year, and an interest charge, generally applicable to underpayments of tax, will be added to the tax.

        If we are a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. Holder holds Common Shares, we must generally continue to be treated as a PFIC by that holder for all succeeding years during which the U.S. Holder holds the Common Shares, unless we cease to meet the requirements for PFIC status and the U.S. Holder makes a "deemed sale" election with respect to the Common Shares. If the election is made, the U.S. Holder will be deemed to sell the Common Shares it holds at their fair market value on the last day of the last taxable year in which we qualified as a PFIC, and any gain recognized from such deemed sale would be taxed under the PFIC excess distribution regime. After the deemed sale election, the U.S. Holder's Common Shares would not be treated as shares of a PFIC unless we subsequently become a PFIC.

        If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds Common Shares and one of our non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries is also a PFIC (i.e., a lower-tier PFIC), such U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of the lower-tier PFIC and would be taxed under the PFIC excess distribution regime on distributions by the lower-tier PFIC and on gain from the disposition of shares of the lower-tier PFIC even though such U.S. Holder would not receive the proceeds of those distributions or dispositions. Each U.S. Holder is advised to consult its tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to our non-U.S. subsidiaries.

        If we are a PFIC, a U.S. Holder will not be subject to tax under the PFIC excess distribution regime on distributions or gain recognized on Common Shares if such U.S. Holder makes a valid "mark-to-market" election for our Common Shares. A mark-to-market election is available to a U.S. Holder only for "marketable stock". Our Common Shares will be marketable stock as long as they remain listed on the NASDAQ and are regularly traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. If a mark-to-market election is in effect, a U.S. Holder generally would take into account, as ordinary income each year, the excess of the fair market value of Common Shares held at the end of such taxable year over the adjusted tax basis of such Common Shares. The U.S. Holder would also take into account, as an ordinary loss each year, the excess of the adjusted tax basis of such Common Shares over their fair market value at the end of the taxable year, but only to the extent of the excess of amounts previously included in income over ordinary losses deducted as a result of the mark-to-market election. The U.S. Holder's tax basis in Common Shares would be adjusted to reflect any income or loss recognized as a result of the mark-to-market election. Any gain from a sale, exchange or other disposition of Common Shares in any taxable year in which we are a PFIC would be treated as ordinary income and any loss from such sale, exchange or other disposition would be treated first as ordinary loss (to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains previously included in income) and thereafter as capital loss.

S-23


Table of Contents

        A mark-to-market election will not apply to Common Shares for any taxable year during which we are not a PFIC, but will remain in effect with respect to any subsequent taxable year in which we become a PFIC. Such election, however, will not apply to any non-U.S. subsidiaries that we currently own, may organize or acquire in the future. Accordingly, a U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to tax under the PFIC excess distribution regime with respect to any lower-tier PFICs that we currently own, may organize or acquire in the future notwithstanding the U.S. Holder's mark-to-market election for the Common Shares.

        However, a mark-to-market election generally cannot be made for equity interests in any lower-tier PFICs that we own, unless shares of such lower-tier PFIC are themselves "marketable". As a result, even if a U.S. Holder validly makes a mark-to-market election with respect to our Common Shares, the U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to its indirect interest in any of our investments that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors as to the availability and desirability of a mark-to-market election, as well as the impact of such election on interests in any lower-tier PFICs.

        The tax consequences that would apply if we are a PFIC would also be different from those described above if a U.S. Holder were able to make a valid qualified electing fund ("QEF") election. At this time we do not expect to provide U.S. Holders with the information necessary for a U.S. Holder to make a QEF election, prospective investors should assume that a QEF election will not be available.

        Each U.S. person that is an investor of a PFIC is generally required to file an annual information return on IRS Form 8621 containing such information as the U.S. Treasury Department may require. The failure to file IRS Form 8621 could result in the imposition of penalties and the extension of the statute of limitations with respect to U.S. federal income tax.

        The U.S. federal income tax rules relating to PFICs are very complex. Prospective U.S. investors are strongly urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the impact of PFIC status on the purchase, ownership and disposition of Common Shares, the consequences to them of an investment in a PFIC, any elections available with respect to the Common Shares and the IRS information reporting obligations with respect to the purchase, ownership and disposition of Common Shares of a PFIC.

Taxation of Distributions

        Subject to the discussion above under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Consequences", a U.S. Holder that receives a distribution with respect to Common Shares generally will be required to include the gross amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend when actually or constructively received to the extent of the U.S. Holder's pro rata share of our current and/or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). To the extent a distribution received by a U.S. Holder is not a dividend because it exceeds the U.S. Holder's pro rata share of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, it will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital and reduce (but not below zero) the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. Holder's Common Shares. To the extent the distribution exceeds the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. Holder's Common Shares, the remainder will be taxed as capital gain. Because we may not account for our earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, U.S. Holders should expect all distributions to be reported to them as dividends. Distributions on Common Shares that are treated as dividends generally will constitute income from sources outside the United States for foreign tax credit purposes and generally will constitute passive category income. Such dividends will not be eligible for the "dividends received" deduction generally allowed to corporate shareholders with respect to dividends received from U.S. corporations.

        The amount of any dividend income paid in foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date of actual or constructive receipt, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. If the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder should not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. A U.S. Holder may have foreign currency gain or loss if the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars after the date of receipt. Such gain or loss would generally be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss. The amount of any distribution of property other than cash (and other than certain pro rata distributions of common shares or rights to acquire common shares) will be the fair market value of such property on the date of distribution.

S-24


Table of Contents

        Dividends paid by a "qualified foreign corporation" are eligible for taxation at a reduced capital gains rate rather than the marginal tax rates generally applicable to ordinary income provided that certain requirements are met. However, if we are a PFIC for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year (see discussion above under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Consequences"), we will not be treated as a qualified foreign corporation, and therefore the reduced capital gains tax rate described above will not apply. Each U.S. Holder is advised to consult its tax advisors regarding the availability of the reduced tax rate on dividends with regard to its particular circumstances.

        A non-United States corporation (other than a corporation that is classified as a PFIC for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year) generally will be considered to be a qualified foreign corporation (a) if it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive tax treaty with the United States which the Secretary of Treasury of the United States determines is satisfactory for purposes of this provision and which includes an exchange of information provision, or (b) with respect to any dividend it pays on Common Shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. We believe that we qualify as a resident of Canada for purposes of, and are eligible for the benefits of, the U.S. Treaty, which the IRS has determined is satisfactory for purposes of the qualified dividend rules and that it includes an exchange of information provision, although there can be no assurance in this regard. Further, our Common Shares will generally be considered to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States if they are listed on the NASDAQ, as we intend the Common Shares to be. Therefore, subject to the discussion above under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Consequences", if the U.S. Treaty is applicable, or if the Common Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, dividends paid on Common Shares will generally be "qualified dividend income" in the hands of individual U.S. Holders, provided that certain conditions are met, including conditions relating to holding period and the absence of certain risk reduction transactions.

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Common Shares

        Subject to the discussion above under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Consequences", a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of Common Shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized (i.e., the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received) on the sale, exchange or other disposition and such U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the Common Shares. Such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain taxable at a reduced rate for non-corporate U.S. Holders or long-term capital loss if, on the date of sale, exchange or other disposition, the Common Shares were held by the U.S. Holder for more than one year. Any capital gain of a non-corporate U.S. Holder that is not long- term capital gain is taxed at ordinary income rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized from the sale or other disposition of Common Shares will generally be gain or loss from sources within the United States for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

Medicare Tax

        Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts and whose income exceeds certain thresholds generally are subject to a 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their net investment income, which may include their gross dividend income and net gains from the disposition of Common Shares. If you are a United States person that is an individual, estate or trust, you are encouraged to consult your tax advisors regarding the applicability of this Medicare tax to your income and gains in respect of your investment in Common Shares.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

        U.S. Holders may be required to file certain U.S. information reporting returns with the IRS with respect to an investment in Common Shares, including, among others, IRS Form 8938 (Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets). As described above under "Passive Foreign Investment Company Consequences", each U.S. Holder who is a shareholder of a PFIC must file an annual report containing certain information. U.S. Holders paying more than US$100,000 for Common Shares may be required to file IRS Form 926 (Return by a U.S. Transferor of Property to a Foreign Corporation) reporting this payment. Substantial penalties may be imposed upon a U.S. Holder that fails to comply with the required information reporting.

S-25


Table of Contents

        Dividends on and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of Common Shares generally must be reported to the IRS unless the U.S. Holder establishes a basis for exemption. Backup withholding may apply to amounts subject to reporting if the holder:

    (a)
    fails to provide an accurate United States taxpayer identification number or otherwise establish a basis for exemption; or

    (b)
    is described in certain other categories of persons.

        However, U.S. Holders that are corporations generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding tax rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules generally will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a U.S. Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability if the required information is furnished by the U.S. Holder on a timely basis to the IRS.

        U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the backup withholding tax and information reporting rules.

        EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO IT OF AN INVESTMENT IN COMMON SHARES IN LIGHT OF THE INVESTOR'S OWN CIRCUMSTANCES.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CIVIL LIABILITIES

        The Company is a corporation existing under the OBCA. Many of the Company's directors, officers and experts are residents of Canada or other non-United States jurisdictions, and all or a substantial portion of their assets, and all of the Company's assets, are located outside the United States. The Company has appointed an agent for service of process in the United States (as set forth below), but it may be difficult for holders of Common Shares who reside in the United States to effect service within the United States upon the Company or those directors and officers and experts who are not residents of the United States.

        The Company has been advised by its Canadian counsel, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP, that there is doubt as to the enforceability in Canada by a court in original actions, or in actions to enforce judgments of United States courts, of civil liabilities predicated upon United States federal securities laws. The Company filed with the SEC, concurrently with its registration statement on Form F-10 of which this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus are a part, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, the Company appointed CT Corporation System, 1015 15th Street N.W., Suite 1000, Washington, DC 20005 as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against or involving the Company in a United States court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of the Common Shares under this Prospectus Supplement.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under United States federal securities laws may be affected adversely because the Company is a corporation amalgamated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, and all of its executive offices, administrative activities and assets are located outside the United States. In addition, most of the directors and officers of the Company are residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and all or a substantial portion of the assets of those persons are or may be located outside the United States. See "Enforceability of Civil Liabilities".

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "SEC") OR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY NOR HAS THE SEC OR ANY STATE OR CANADIAN SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

Investors should be aware that the acquisition of the Securities described herein may have tax consequences both in the United States and in Canada.

The Company and the Selling Securityholders may offer and sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals, and may also sell directly to one or more purchasers or through agents or pursuant to applicable statutory exemptions. See "Plan of Distribution". The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, as the case may be, engaged by the Company and/or the Selling Securityholders in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, the method of distribution of the Securities, the identity of the Selling Securityholders, the initial issue price (in the event that the offering is a fixed price distribution), the proceeds that the Company and/or the Selling Securityholders will, or expect to receive and any other material terms of the plan of distribution.

The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at a non-fixed price or prices. If offered on a non-fixed price basis, the Securities may be offered at market prices prevailing at the time of sale (including, without limitation, sales deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, including sales made directly on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), or other trading markets for the Securities), at prices determined by reference to the prevailing price of a specified security in a specified market or at prices to be negotiated with purchasers, in which case the compensation payable to an underwriter, dealer or agent in connection with any such sale will be decreased by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate price paid for Securities by the purchasers is less than the gross proceeds paid by the underwriter, dealer or agent to the Company and/or the Selling Securityholders. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution.

In connection with any offering of Securities, other than an "at-the-market distribution" (as defined under applicable Canadian securities legislation), unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, may over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities at a level other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time. A purchaser who acquires Securities forming part of the underwriters', dealers' or agents' over-allocation position acquires those securities under this Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement relating to the particular offering of Securities, regardless of whether the over-allocation position is ultimately filled through the exercise of the over-allotment option or secondary market purchases. See "Plan of Distribution". No underwriter or dealer involved in an "at-the-market distribution" under this Prospectus, no affiliate of such an underwriter or dealer and no person or company acting jointly or in concert with such underwriter or dealer will over-allot Securities in connection with such distribution or effect any other transactions that are intended to stabilize or maintain the market price of the Securities.

The issued and outstanding Common Shares are traded on the TSX and on the NYSE under the symbol "APHA". On November 21, 2019, the last trading day prior to the date of this Prospectus, the closing price of the Common Shares was $6.59 and US$4.95 on the TSX and the NYSE, respectively.

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, each series or issue of Securities (other than Common Shares) will not be listed on any securities exchange. Accordingly, there is currently no market through which the Securities (other than Common Shares) may be sold and purchasers may not be able to resell such Securities purchased under this Prospectus. This may affect the pricing of such Securities in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of such Securities and the extent of issuer regulation. See "Risk Factors".

Investing in the Securities is speculative and involves significant risks. Readers should carefully review and evaluate the risk factors contained in this Prospectus, the applicable Prospectus Supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference herein before purchasing any Securities. See "Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors".

Neither the Company nor any Selling Securityholder is making an offer of the Securities in any jurisdiction where such offer is not permitted.

Unless otherwise specified in a Prospectus Supplement relating to any Securities offered, certain legal matters relating to Canadian and Ontario law in connection with the offering of the Securities will be passed upon on behalf of Aphria by Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP. Certain legal matters relating to United States law in connection with the offering of the Securities will be passed upon on behalf of Aphria by DLA Piper LLP (US), New York, New York.

Certain of the forward-looking statements contained herein and incorporated by reference concerning the cannabis industry and the general expectations of Aphria concerning the cannabis industry and the Company's business and operations are based on estimates prepared by Aphria using data from publicly available governmental sources as well as from market research and industry analysis and on assumptions based on data and knowledge of this industry which Aphria believes to be reasonable. However, although generally indicative of relative market positions, market shares and performance characteristics, such data is inherently imprecise. While Aphria is not aware of any misstatement regarding any industry or government data presented herein, the cannabis industry involves risks and uncertainties and is subject to change based on various factors.

        Readers are cautioned that the above list of cautionary statements is not exhaustive. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from what is projected in forward-looking statements. The purpose of forward-looking statements is to provide the reader with a description of management's expectations, and such forward-looking statements may not be appropriate for any other purpose. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus, in any Prospectus Supplement or in any document incorporated by reference. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. The forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus, any Prospectus Supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Table of Contents

Company files reports and other information with the SEC and with securities regulatory authorities in Canada. Under the MJDS adopted by the United States and Canada, documents and other information that the Company files with the SEC may be prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canada, which are different from those of the United States. As a foreign private issuer, the Company is exempt from the rules under the U.S. Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and the Company's officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the U.S. Exchange Act.

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

        The Company was amalgamated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, and all of its executive offices, administrative activities and assets are located outside the United States. In addition, most of the directors and officers of the Company are residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and all or a substantial portion of the assets of those persons are or may be located outside the United States.

        As a result, investors who reside in the United States may have difficulty serving legal process in the United States upon the Company or its directors or officers, as applicable, or enforcing judgments obtained in United States courts against any of them or the assets of any of them located outside the United States, or enforcing against them in the appropriate Canadian court judgments obtained in United States courts, including, but not limited to, judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States, or bringing an original action in the appropriate Canadian courts to enforce liabilities against the Company or any of its directors or officers, as applicable, based upon United States federal securities laws.

        In the United States, the Company has filed with the SEC, concurrently with Aphria's registration statement on Form F-10, an appointment of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under such Form F-X, the Company has appointed CT Corporation System as its agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC, and any civil suit or action brought against the Company in a U.S. court arising out of or related to or concerning the offering of the Securities under the registration statement.

Prospective investors should read the more detailed information including, but not limited to, the AIF, financial statements and management's discussion and analysis, that are incorporated by reference into and are considered to be a part of this Prospectus.

Aphria

        Aphria is licensed to produce and sell medical and adult-use cannabis and cannabis-derived extracts in Canada under the provisions of the Cannabis Act. Aphria received its licence to produce and sell medical cannabis on November 26, 2014, followed by its licence to sell cannabis extracts on August 18, 2016. These licences (the "Licences") were extended to include the adult-use market on October 17, 2018. The Licences currently do not contain a cap on production or sales. The Licences have a current term that ends on March 25, 2020.

        Aphria's head office is based in Leamington, Ontario, adjacent to the Company's original 1,100,000 square foot Leamington greenhouse facility known as "Aphria One". On March 4, 2019, Health Canada granted an amendment permitting the Company to commence production in an additional 800,000 square feet of facilities at Aphria One, as part of the Company's Part IV and Part V Expansions (each as defined in the AIF).

        Aphria holds third-party independent good manufacturing practice ("GMP") certification of its Leamington, Ontario growing and processing facilities. The certification is for the current GMP standards of CFR 21 parts 210/211 established by the United States Food and Drug Administration for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients and Finished Pharmaceuticals. Aphria One is in the process of obtaining EU-GMP certification ("EU-GMP") for the supply of bulk products to the Company's remaining EU-GMP sites for production of finished product.

Broken Coast

        In addition to the Licences, the Company equally holds a licence issued pursuant to the Cannabis Act in the name of its subsidiary, Broken Coast Cannabis Ltd. ("Broken Coast"). Broken Coast operates a fully licensed indoor cannabis production facility on Vancouver Island. The facility sits on a 4.5 acre parcel of owned land that has the necessary surrounding infrastructure to support further expansion. Broken Coast's licence was renewed on April 20, 2018 and provides for total production space of 44,000 square feet.

Avanti

        Through the acquisition of Nuuvera Inc., the Company acquired Brampton-based ARA — Avanti Rx Analytics Inc. ("Avanti"), which currently holds four Canadian licences: (i) Cannabis Processing Licence; (ii) Cannabis Analytical Testing Licence; (iii) Drug Establishment Licence; and, (iv) Medical Device Establishment Licence.

        In addition to allowing the Company to possess and handle cannabis and cannabis derivative products, these licences allow Avanti to engage in the possession, production, packaging, sale, transportation and delivery and testing of drugs and medical devices. The Company is also able to complete testing/analysis of active pharmaceutical ingredients.

        Avanti is currently in the process of securing EU-GMP, which will then be used as the Canadian staging site for international bound GMP certified products. The Company's EU-GMP certification will cover the extraction, post processing, testing, packaging and shipping process.

ASG

        On June 21, 2018, the Company announced that its Malta-based subsidiary, ASG Pharma Ltd. ("ASG"), received the first import licence for medical cannabis issued by the Malta Medicines Authority. The licence allows ASG to import medical cannabis for analytical testing and research.

Aphria Diamond

        On November 1, 2019, 1974568 Ontario Ltd., Aphria's majority-owned Leamington-based subsidiary ("Aphria Diamond"), received its licence from Health Canada to possess, cultivate, propagate, harvest, and sell cannabis. The licence has a current term that ends on November 1, 2020.

International Regulatory Framework

        The Company only conducts business in jurisdictions outside of Canada where such operations are legally permissible in accordance with the laws of the applicable jurisdiction and Canadian regulatory obligations with the TSX. As noted above, the Company has activities in jurisdictions outside of Canada, namely in Germany, Malta, Italy, Jamaica, Lesotho, Colombia and Argentina. In addition to the foregoing jurisdictions, Aphria owns subsidiaries in Bermuda (Hampstead Holdings Ltd.), Israel (Nuuvera Israel Ltd.), Portugal (APL—Aphria Portugal, Lda.), South Africa (CannInvest Africa Ltd.), Denmark (CC Pharma Nordic ApS), and United Kingdom (Goodfields Supply Co. Ltd.), but does not currently conduct business in those jurisdictions. Aphria does not currently maintain its own operations in Australia but rather owns a minority investment in a company that has operations in Australia. The Company acquired an option and right of first refusal to purchase a Brazilian incorporated entity, with the option and right of first refusal vesting only upon the entity obtaining a licence to cultivate and distribute cannabis lawfully in Brazil. The following table outlines the regulatory status of cannabis in the foreign jurisdictions where Aphria conducts business, or in the case of Brazil, where it has the

Federally acceptable for medicinal and scientific purposes.

 

In Lesotho, the Ministry of Health administers The Drugs of Abuse Act which contemplates the licensing for the manufacture, sale, distribution, import and export of cannabis and other narcotics.

 

The Ministry of Health has authority to issue licences in respect of the cultivation; manufacture; supply; distribution; storage; and export of cannabis.

Currently permissible on a "compassionate use" basis.

 

On September 13, 2019, the Health Minister announced the approval of a resolution establishing the guidelines to apply for the first commercial production licences. Licence holders must donate 2% of their total production to the Paraguayan Ministry of Health who in turn expects to distribute such cannabis products for free to patients with conditions where there is scientific evidence beyond anecdotal evidence of the benefits of the product.

        The Company and the Selling Securityholders may from time to time during the 25-month period that this Prospectus, including any amendments hereto, remains valid, offer for sale and issue, as applicable, up to an aggregate of US$500,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies based on the applicable exchange rate at the time of the offering) in Securities hereunder.

        The Company and the Selling Securityholders may offer and sell the Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals, and may also sell directly to one or more purchasers or through agents or pursuant to applicable statutory exemptions. The Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities will identify each underwriter, dealer or agent, as the case may be, engaged by the Company or any Selling Securityholder in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities, and will set forth the terms of the offering of such Securities, including, to the extent applicable, any fees, discounts or any other compensation payable to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, the method of distribution of the Securities, the identity of the Selling Securityholders, the initial issue price, the proceeds that the Company will receive and any other material terms of the plan of distribution. Any initial offering price and discounts, concessions or commissions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

        In addition, the Securities may be offered and issued in consideration for the acquisition of other businesses, assets or securities by the Company or one of its subsidiaries. The consideration for any such acquisition may consist of the Securities separately, a combination of Securities or any combination of, among other things, Securities, cash and assumption of liabilities. In addition, one or more Selling Securityholders of the Company may sell Securities to or through underwriters or dealers purchasing as principals and may also sell the Securities to one or more purchasers directly, through statutory exemptions, or through agents designated from time to time. See "Selling Securityholders".

        The Securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices or at prices which may be changed or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing prices or at negotiated prices, including sales in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in NI 44-102, including sales made directly on the TSX, the NYSE or other existing trading markets for the Securities. The price at which the Securities will be offered and sold may vary from purchaser to purchaser and during the period of distribution. If the Company conducts an "at-the-market distribution" under this Prospectus, it will submit an application to the Ontario Securities Commission, as principal regulator of the Company, pursuant to National Policy 11-203—Process for Exemptive Relief Applications in Multiple Jurisdictions (the "Application") for a decision providing for the required exemptions. The Application and the exemptive relief will be described in the Prospectus Supplement that qualifies such "at-the-market distribution".

        In connection with the sale of the Securities, underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation from the Company, any Selling Securityholder or from other parties, including in the form of underwriters', dealers' or agents' fees, commissions or concessions. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the Securities may be deemed to be underwriters for the purposes of applicable U.S. and/or Canadian securities legislation and any such compensation received by them from the Company or any Selling Securityholder and any profit on the resale of the Securities by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions. In connection with any offering of Securities, except as otherwise set out in a Prospectus Supplement relating to a particular offering of Securities and other than in relation to an "at-the-market" distribution, the underwriters, dealers or agents, as the case may be, may over-allot or effect transactions intended to fix, stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Securities at a level other than those which otherwise might prevail on the open market. Such transactions may be commenced, interrupted or discontinued at any time.

        Underwriters, dealers or agents who participate in the distribution of the Securities may be entitled, under agreements to be entered into with the Company and/or any Selling Securityholder, to indemnification by the Company and/or any Selling Securityholder against certain liabilities, including liabilities under U.S. and/or Canadian securities legislation, or to contribution with respect to payments which such underwriters, dealers or agents may be required to make in respect thereof. Such underwriters, dealers and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for, the Company in the ordinary course of business.

DIVIDENDS

        Aphria has never paid any dividends on its Common Shares. Aphria does not intend to pay dividends on any of its Common Shares in the foreseeable future.

CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

        Owning any of the Securities may subject holders to tax consequences. The applicable Prospectus Supplement may describe certain Canadian federal income tax consequences to an investor of acquiring, owning and disposing of any of the Securities offered thereunder. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors prior to deciding to purchase any of the Securities.


RISK FACTORS

        Before deciding to invest in any Securities, prospective investors of the Securities should consider carefully the risk factors and the other information contained and incorporated by reference in this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement relating to a specific offering of Securities before purchasing the Securities, including those risks identified and discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in the AIF, which is incorporated by reference herein. See "Documents Incorporated by Reference".

        An investment in the Securities offered hereunder is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. The risks and uncertainties described or incorporated by reference herein are not the only ones the Company may face. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those that the Company is unaware of or that are currently deemed immaterial, may also become important factors that affect the Company and its business. If any such risks actually occur, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

        Prospective investors should carefully consider the risks below and in the AIF and the other information elsewhere in this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement and consult with their professional advisors to assess any investment in the Company.

        In addition, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements in this Prospectus, the documents incorporated herein and the Company's other public disclosure. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties, of both a general and specific nature, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements or contribute to the possibility that predictions, forecasts and projections will prove to be materially inaccurate.

Risks Related to the Securities

Return on Securities is not Guaranteed

        There is no guarantee that the Securities will earn any positive return in the short term or long term. A holding of Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by holders whose financial resources are sufficient to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. A holding of Securities is appropriate only for holders who have the capacity to absorb a loss of some or all of their holdings.

Discretion in the Use of Proceeds

        Management of the Company will have broad discretion with respect to the application of net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Securities under this Prospectus or a future Prospectus Supplement and may spend such proceeds in ways that do not improve the Company's results of operations or enhance the value of the Common Shares or its other securities issued and outstanding from time to time. Any failure by management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or cause the price of the securities of the Company issued and outstanding from time to time to decline.

Dilution

        The Company may sell additional Common Shares or other Securities that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares in subsequent offerings or may issue additional Common Shares or other Securities to finance future acquisitions. The Company cannot predict the size or nature of future sales or issuances of securities or the effect, if any, that such future sales and issuances will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Sales or issuances of substantial numbers of Common Shares or other Securities that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares, or the perception that such sales or issuances could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Common Shares. With any additional sale or issuance of Common Shares or other Securities that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Shares, investors will suffer dilution to their voting power and economic interest in the Company. Furthermore, to the extent holders of the Company's stock options or other convertible securities convert or exercise their securities and sell the Common Shares they receive, the trading price of the Common Shares on the TSX and/or NYSE may decrease due to the additional amount of Common Shares available in the market.

Volatile Market Price of the Common Shares

        The market price of the Common Shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. This volatility may affect the ability of holders of Common Shares to sell their securities at an advantageous price. Market price fluctuations in the Common Shares may be due to the Company's operating results failing to meet expectations of securities analysts or investors in any period, downward revision in securities analysts' estimates, adverse changes in general market conditions or economic trends, acquisitions, dispositions or other material public announcements by the Company or its competitors, along with a variety of additional factors. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares.

        Financial markets have historically at times experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of companies and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. Accordingly, the market price of the Common Shares may decline even if the Company's operating results, underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which may result in impairment losses. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price and volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, the Company's operations could be adversely impacted and the trading price of the Common Shares may be materially adversely affected.

Liquidity

        Shareholders of the Company may be unable to sell significant quantities of Common Shares into the public trading markets without a significant reduction in the price of their Common Shares, or at all. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient liquidity of the Common Shares on the trading market, and that the Company will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX, the NYSE or achieve listing on any other public listing exchange.

        There is currently no market through which the Securities, other than the Common Shares, may be sold and, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement, none of the Warrants, Subscription Receipts, Debt Securities, Convertible Securities, or Units will be listed on any securities or stock exchange or any automated dealer quotation system. As a consequence, purchasers may not be able to resell Warrants, Subscription Receipts, Debt Securities, Convertible Securities, or Units purchased under this Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement. This may affect the pricing of the Securities, other than the Common Shares, in the secondary market, the transparency and availability of trading prices, the liquidity of these securities and the extent of issuer regulation. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Securities, other than the Common Shares, will develop or, if developed, that any such market, including for the Common Shares, will be sustained.

Risks Related to the Company's Business and the Cannabis Industry

Reliance on Licence

        The Company's ability to cultivate, store and sell cannabis and cannabis oil in Canada is dependent on maintaining its Licence with Health Canada and licences through its various subsidiaries. Failure to comply with the requirements of the Licence or any subsidiary licence or any failure to maintain its Licence or any subsidiary licence may have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results. There can be no guarantees that Health Canada will extend or renew the Licences as necessary or, if it extended or renewed, that the Licences will be extended or renewed on the same or similar terms. Should Health Canada not extend or renew the Licences or should it renew the Licences on different terms, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Recent Announcements and Risks Regarding Vaporizer Products

        On October 4, 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning to the public to stop using vaping liquids containing cannabis derivatives and ingredients, such as CBD and THC, in light of a potential but unconfirmed link to lung injuries such as severe pulmonary illness. Such warnings appear to be particularly focused on the use of vaping liquids purchased from unlicensed or unregulated retailers. Lung injuries associated with the use of cannabis derivative containing vaping liquid have equally been reported in Canada but to a lesser extent. In response, Health Canada has issued an information update advising Canadians who use cannabis derivative containing vaping liquids to monitor themselves for symptoms of pulmonary illness. There may be further governmental and private sector actions aimed at reducing the sale of cannabis containing vaping liquids and/or seeking to hold manufacturers of cannabis containing vaping liquids responsible for the adverse health effects associated with the use of these vaping products. These actions, combined with potential deterioration in the public's perception of cannabis containing vaping liquids, may result in a reduced market for the Company's vaporizer products. Federal, provincial and local regulations or actions that prohibit or restrict the sale of the Company's vaporizer products including cannabis derivative vaping liquids, or that decrease consumer demand for the Company's products by prohibiting their use, raising the minimum age for their purchase, raising the purchase prices to unattractive levels via taxation, or banning their sale, could adversely impact the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

The Long-term Health Impacts Associated with Use of Cannabis and Cannabis Derivative Products are Unknown

        Although there is a long history of human consumption of cannabis, there is little in the way of longitudinal studies on the short-term and long-term effects of cannabis use on human health, whether used for recreational or medicinal purposes. As such, there are inherent risks associated with using the Company's cannabis and cannabis derivative products. The Company's cannabis and cannabis derivative products should always be used

18


Table of Contents

only as specifically instructed by the Company on the packaging and associated product information or product insert prepared by the Company. Consumers should never modify cannabis products or cannabis derivative products or add substances to such products as this may result in increased health risks and unpredictable adverse reactions. Previously unknown or unforeseeable adverse reactions arising from human consumption of cannabis products may occur and consumers should consume cannabis at their own risk or in accordance with the direction of a health care practitioner.

Company's Expansion Efforts may not be Successful and Company's Operations are Subject to Risk as a Result of Company's Expansion Efforts including Company's International Expansion

        There is no guarantee that the Company's expansion strategy (including receiving the expected Health Canada approvals in a timely fashion if at all) will be completed in the currently proposed form, if at all, nor is there any guarantee that the Company will be able to expand into additional jurisdictions. There is also no guarantee that the Company's intentions to acquire and/or construct additional cannabis production and manufacturing facilities in Canada and in other jurisdictions with federally legal cannabis markets, and to expand the Company's marketing and sales initiatives will be successful. Any such activities will require, among other things, various regulatory approvals, licences and permits (such as additional licences from Health Canada under the Cannabis Act, as applicable) and there is no guarantee that all required approvals, licences and permits will be obtained in a timely fashion or at all. There is also no guarantee that the Company will be able to complete any of the foregoing activities as anticipated or at all.

        The Company's failure to successfully execute its international expansion strategy (including receiving required regulatory approvals, licences and permits) could adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations and may result in the Company failing to meet anticipated or future demand for its cannabis products, when and if it arises.

        The Company's expansion into jurisdictions outside of Canada is subject to additional business risks, including new or unexpected risks or could significantly increase the Company's exposure to one or more existing risk factors, including economic instability, changes in laws and regulations, and the effects of competition. In addition, international expansion could subject the Company's business to certain risks relating to fluctuating exchange rates or require a number of up-front expenses, including those associated with obtaining regulatory approvals, as well as additional ongoing expenses, including those associated with infrastructure, staff and regulatory compliance. These factors may limit the Company's ability to successfully expand its operations into such jurisdictions and may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Operations in Foreign Jurisdictions

        The Company has operations in various emerging markets and may have operations in additional emerging markets in the future. Such operations expose the Company to the socioeconomic conditions as well as the laws governing the cannabis industry in such countries. Inherent risks with conducting foreign operations include, but are not limited to: high rates of inflation; extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates, military repression; war or civil war; social and labor unrest; organized crime; hostage taking; terrorism; violent crime; expropriation and nationalization; renegotiation or nullification of existing licences, approvals, permits and contracts; changes in taxation policies; restrictions on foreign exchange and repatriation; and changing political norms, banking and currency controls and governmental regulations that favor or require us to award contracts in, employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, the jurisdiction.

        Governments in certain foreign jurisdictions intervene in their economies, sometimes frequently, and occasionally make significant changes in policies and regulations. Changes, if any, in cannabis industry or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in the countries in which the Company operates may adversely affect its operations or profitability. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to, but not limited to, restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, currency remittance, importation of product and supplies, income and other taxes, royalties, the repatriation of profits, expropriation of property, foreign investment, maintenance of concessions, licences, approvals and permits, environmental matters, land use, land claims of local people, water use and workplace safety. Failure to comply

19


Table of Contents

strictly with applicable laws, regulations and local practices could result in loss, reduction or expropriation of licences, or the imposition of additional local or foreign parties as joint venture partners with carried or other interests.

        The Company continues to monitor developments and policies in the emerging markets in which its operates and assess the impact thereof to our operations; however, such developments cannot be accurately predicted and could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Corruption and Fraud in Emerging Markets

        There are uncertainties, corruption and fraud relating to title ownership of real property in certain emerging markets in which the Company operates or may operate. Property disputes over title ownership are frequent in emerging markets, and, as a result, there is a risk that errors, fraud or challenges could adversely affect the Company's ability to operate in such jurisdictions. Any of the foregoing risks and uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Risks Inherent to the Cannabis Industry

        The Company operates in a highly regulated and rapidly evolving market. Sometimes new risks emerge and management may not be able to predict all of them, or be able to predict how they may cause actual results to be different from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Failure to comply with the requirements of the licence(s) or any failure to maintain the licence(s) would have a material adverse impact on the business, financial condition and operating results of the Company.

        The industry is subject to extensive controls and regulations, which may significantly affect the financial condition of market participants. The marketability of any product may be affected by numerous factors that are beyond the Company's control and which cannot be predicted, such as changes to government regulations, including those relating to taxes and other government levies that may be imposed. Changes in government levies, including taxes, could reduce the Corporation's earnings and could make future capital investments or the Corporation's operations uneconomic.

Limited Standardized Research on the Effect of Cannabis

        To date, there is limited standardization in the research of the effects of cannabis, and future clinical research studies may lead to conclusions that dispute or conflict with the Company's understanding and belief regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing and social acceptance of cannabis. Research in Canada, the United States and internationally regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy and dosing of cannabis or isolated cannabinoids (such as CBD and THC) remains in relatively early stages.

        Future research and clinical trials may draw opposing conclusions to statements in this Prospectus or could reach different or negative conclusions regarding the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing or other facts and perceptions related to cannabis, which could adversely affect social acceptance of cannabis and the demand for the Company's products.

Relative Newness of the Cannabis Industry and Market in Canada

        As a licence holder authorized to process cannabis, the Company will be operating its business in a relatively new industry and market, and the Company's success in the cannabis market will depend in part on its ability to attract and retain customers. In addition to being subject to general business risks applicable to a business involving an agricultural product and a regulated consumer product, the Company will need to make significant investments in its business strategy. These investments include the procurement of raw material, extraction equipment, site improvements and research and development projects. The Company expects that competitors will undertake similar investments to compete with it. Competitive conditions, consumer preferences, customer requirements and spending patterns in this industry and market are relatively unknown and may have unique circumstances that differ from other existing industries and markets and cause the

20


Table of Contents

Company's future efforts to develop its business to be unsuccessful or to have undesired consequences for it. As a result, the Company may not be successful in its efforts to attract customers or to develop new cannabis products and produce and distribute these cannabis products, or these activities may require significantly more resources than it currently anticipate in order to be successful.

Unfavorable Publicity or Consumer Perception

        The Company believes the cannabis industry is highly dependent upon consumer perception regarding the safety, efficacy and quality of cannabis and related products distributed to such consumers. Consumer perception of the Company's products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention and other publicity regarding the consumption of cannabis products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings or publicity will be favourable to the cannabis market or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity that are perceived as less favourable than, or that question, earlier research reports, findings or publicity could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Company's products and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company. The Company's dependence upon consumer perceptions means that adverse scientific research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity, whether or not accurate or with merit, could have a material adverse effect on the Company, the demand for the Company's products, and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company.

        Further, adverse publicity reports or other media attention regarding the safety, efficacy and quality of cannabis and related products in general, or the Company's products specifically, or associating the consumption of cannabis or related products with illness or other negative effects or events, could have such a material adverse effect. Such adverse publicity reports or other media attention could arise even if the adverse effects associated with such products resulted from consumers' failure to consume such products appropriately or as directed. The increased usage of social media and other web-based tools used to generate, publish and discuss user-generated content and to connect with other users has made it increasingly easier for individuals and groups to communicate and share opinions and views in regard to the Company and its activities, whether true or not. Although the Company believes that it operates in a manner that is respectful to all stakeholders and that it takes care in protecting its image and reputation, it does not ultimately have direct control over how it is perceived by others. Reputational loss may result in decreased investor confidence, increased challenges in developing and maintaining community relations and an impediment to the Company's overall ability to advance its projects, thereby having a material adverse impact on its financial performance, financial condition, cash flows and growth prospects.

Litigation

        From time to time, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings or be subject to claims, some of which arise in the ordinary course of the Company's business. Litigation is inherently uncertain, and any adverse outcomes could negatively affect the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition, brand and/or the trading price of its securities. In addition, litigation can involve significant management time and attention and be expensive, regardless of outcome. During the course of litigation, there may be announcements of the results of hearings and motions and other interim developments related to the litigation. If securities analysts or investors regard these announcements as negative, the trading price of the Company's securities may decline. In addition, the Company evaluates these litigation claims and legal proceedings to assess the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and to estimate, if possible, the amount of potential losses. Based on these assessments and estimates, the Company may establish reserves or disclose the relevant litigation claims or legal proceedings, as appropriate. These assessments and estimates are based on the information available to management at the time and involve a significant amount of management judgment. Actual outcomes or losses may differ materially from the Company's current assessments and estimates.

        The Company was served statements of claim in class action lawsuits against it and certain of its current and former officers. These claims relate to alleged misconduct in connection with the Company's acquisitions of LATAM Holdings Inc. and Nuuvera Holdings Limited, and the Company's June 2018 Offering (as defined in the

21


Table of Contents

AIF). At the present time, the Company is aware of seven such claims, four of which were commenced in the United States (which have since been consolidated into a single complaint) and three of which were commenced in Canada. The US claims include alleged violations of Section 10(b) of the U.S. Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. The Canadian claims include alleged statutory and common law misrepresentation and oppression. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in each of these actions. With respect to the cases commenced in the United States, the Company is self-insured for the costs associated with any award or damages arising from such actions and has entered into indemnity agreements with each of the Company's directors and officers and, subject to certain exemptions, will cover any costs incurred by them in connection with any of the class action claims. With respect to the cases commenced in Canada, the Company's insurance policies may not be sufficient to cover any judgments against it.

Risks Related to Regulation of Cannabis Industry

        Achievement of the Company's business objectives is contingent, in part, upon compliance with regulatory requirements enacted by governmental authorities and obtaining all regulatory approvals, where necessary, for the sale of its products. The Company cannot predict the impact of the compliance regime Health Canada is implementing for the Canadian adult-use and medical cannabis industries under the Cannabis Regulations or the impact of the compliance regime that countries such as Germany, Italy, Lesotho, Malta, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Denmark, Paraguay or Jamaica are implementing and the method in which their governmental authorities will implement the adult-use or medical cannabis industry. Similarly, the Company cannot predict the time required to secure all appropriate regulatory approvals for its products, or the extent of testing and documentation that may be required by governmental authorities. The impact of Health Canada's compliance regime, any delays in obtaining, or failure to obtain regulatory approvals may significantly delay or impact the development of markets, products and sales initiatives and could have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company.

        The Company will incur ongoing costs and obligations related to regulatory compliance, including regulations relating to continuous disclosure and other applicable securities laws. Failure to comply with regulations may result in additional costs for corrective measures, penalties or restrictions on the Company's operations. In addition, changes in regulations, more vigorous enforcement thereof or other unanticipated events could require extensive changes to the Company's operations, increased compliance costs or give rise to material liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company.

        The legal and regulatory requirements in the foreign countries in which the Company operates or will operate with respect to the cultivation and sale of cannabis, banking systems and controls, as well as local business culture and practices are different from those in Canada. The Company must rely, to a great extent, on local legal counsel, consultants and advisors retained by it in order to keep apprised of legal, regulatory and governmental developments as they pertain to and affect the Company's business, and to assist the Company with its governmental relations. The Company must rely, to some extent, on those members of management and the Board who have previous experience working and conducting business in these countries, if any, in order to enhance its understanding of and appreciation for the local business culture and practices. The Company also relies on the advice of local experts and professionals in connection with current and new regulations that develop in respect of the cultivation and sale of cannabis as well as in respect of banking, financing, labour, litigation and tax matters in these jurisdictions. Any developments or changes in such legal, regulatory or governmental requirements or in local business practices are beyond the Company's control. The impact of any such changes may adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Changes in Laws, Regulations and Guidelines

        The Company's operations are subject to various laws, regulations and guidelines relating to the manufacture, management, packaging/labelling, advertising, sale, transportation, storage and disposal of adult-use or medical cannabis but also including laws and regulations relating to drugs, controlled substances, health and safety, the conduct of operations and the protection of the environment. Changes to such laws, regulations and guidelines due to matters beyond the control of the Company may cause adverse effects business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The Company endeavours to comply

22


Table of Contents

with all relevant laws, regulations and guidelines. To the best of the Company's knowledge, the Company is in compliance or in the process of being assessed for compliance with all such laws, regulations and guidelines.

        The Cannabis Act and Cannabis Regulations came into force on October 17, 2018. The Cannabis Act and Cannabis Regulations prohibit testimonials, lifestyle branding and packaging that is appealing to youth. The restrictions on advertising, marketing and the use of logos and brand names could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Cannabis Act allows for licences to be granted for outdoor cultivation, which may reduce start-up capital required for new entrants in the cannabis industry. It may also ultimately lower prices, as capital expenditure requirements related to outdoor growing are typically much lower than those associated with indoor growing. Such results may also have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

        The legislative framework pertaining to the Canadian adult-use cannabis market is uncertain. In addition, the governments of every Canadian province and territory have, to varying degrees, announced regulatory regimes for the distribution and sale of cannabis for adult-use purposes within those jurisdictions. There is no guarantee that provincial legislation regulating the distribution and sale of cannabis for adult-use purposes will be enacted according to all the terms announced by such provinces and territories, or at all, or that any such legislation, if enacted, will create the growth opportunities that the Company currently anticipates. While the impact of any new legislative framework for the regulation of the Canadian adult-use cannabis market is uncertain, any of the foregoing could result in a material adverse effect of the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

        To date, only fresh cannabis, dried cannabis and cannabis oil products are permitted for sale in Canada. Pursuant to the Cannabis Act, certain classes of cannabis products, such as edibles, concentrates and other edibles are currently prohibited from sale, but new regulations under the Cannabis Act will come into force on October 17, 2019 to permit edibles, concentrates and other edibles to be available for sale no earlier than December 2019. While regulations have been released, the impact of these regulatory changes on the business of the Company is unknown, and the proposed regulations may not be implemented at all or, if they are, may change significantly.

        Further, Health Canada may change their administration, interpretation or application of the applicable regulations or their compliance or enforcement procedures at any time. Any such changes could require the Company to revise its ongoing compliance procedures, requiring the Company to incur increased compliance costs and expend additional resources. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to comply or continue to comply with applicable regulations.
