Kelowna, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 21, 2021) –  Fiore Cannabis Ltd. (CSE: FIOR) (OTCQX: FIORF) (“Fiore” or the “Company”), a licensed multi-state cannabis cultivator, producer and retailer, today announced the closing of the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) . In total, 6,445,880 units (“Units”) were issued at a price of $0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of $966,882 with 54% coming from management and insiders.

“I’m impressed with the strong demand we received for this oversubscribed private placement offering. I’m grateful for the ongoing support from investors, management and insiders as we execute on our refreshed business strategy. With a bolstered balance sheet, we can move forward to advance initiatives that further tighten our focus on growth and expansion in Nevada and California markets. We thank all our investors for their ongoing support and commitment to Fiore,” said Erik Anderson, President and CEO of Fiore Cannabis.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private Placement to fund expansion projects in its Nevada and California operations, and for general working capital purposes.

Each Unit in the Private Placement is comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable into one common share at an exercise price of $0.22 for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of issuance. The warrants are subject to an accelerated expiry date if the trading price of the Company’s common shares closes at or above $0.50 per share for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days.

The Units were offered and sold by private placement in Canada to “accredited investors” within the meaning of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions and other exempt purchasers in each province of Canada, and may be sold outside of Canada on a basis which does not require the qualification or registration of any of the common shares or the warrants comprising the Units in the subscriber’s jurisdiction. The securities issued in the private placement are subject to applicable hold periods imposed under applicable securities legislation, including a hold period of four (4) months and one day from the date of issuance.

Insiders of the Company acquired 3,497,667 Units for consideration of approximately $524,650 in the first tranche. The issuance of securities to insiders pursuant to the Private Placement (the “Insider Participation”) constitutes a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The Company has relied on exemptions to the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements contained in sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of the Insider Participation as no securities of the Company are listed or quoted for trading on certain prescribed stock exchanges, and neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the Insider Participation, insofar as it involved related parties, exceeded 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. Further details will be included in a material change report to be filed by the Company in due course. The material change report will not be filed more than 21 days prior to the closing of the Offering as the level of insider participation was not known at that time.
