EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 2 to Form 20-F (this "Amendment No. 2") is being filed to amend the annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2020 (the "Annual Report") filed by C21 Investments Inc. (the "Company") on July 20, 2020, as amended on July 22, 2020 (the "Amendment No. 1"). The purpose of this Amendment No. 2 is solely to file an updated Exhibit 99.2, Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended January 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, with the requisite signature of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm enclosed within the Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended January 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 included in the original Annual Report was inadvertently filed without the requisite signature by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

This Amendment No. 2 consists solely of a cover page, this explanatory note, Item 19 (the list of exhibits, as updated), Exhibits 12.1, 12.2, 13.1 and 13.2 (new certifications by the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), Exhibit 99.2 and a signature page.

Other than as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not, and does not purport to, amend, update or restate the information in the original filing of the Annual Report or the Amendment No. 1 or reflect any events that have occurred after the original filing was made. Information not affected by this Amendment No. 2 remains unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the times as of which the original Annual Report and Amendment No. 1 were made. No changes have been made to the financial statements of the Company as contained in the original filing of the Annual Report. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 2 should be read together with the original filing of the Annual Report, the Amendment No. 1 and the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
