MEDFORD, Ore.-December 8, 2021-(BUSINESS WIRE)–Grown Rogue International Inc. (“Grown Rogue” or the “Company”) (CSE: GRIN) (OTC: GRUSF), a multi-state cannabis company with operations and assets in Oregon and Michigan, is pleased to announce that it has closed a non-brokered private placement of common shares (“Private Placement”) for total gross proceeds of USD$1,300,000 (CDN$1,645,800).

 

The Private Placement resulted in the issuance of 13,166,400 common shares of Grown Rogue at a purchase price of CAD$0.125 per share. The funds raised will be used for general corporate purposes.

 

“This financing was led by a strategic investment fund with significant cannabis expertise, which has been learning about our business for the last several months,” said Obie Strickler, Grown Rogue’s Chief Executive Officer. “With our recent financial performance in both Michigan and Oregon, they are excited to take a sizeable position in Grown Rogue, roll up their sleeves, and help us scale the business.”

 

All common shares issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a hold period of four months and one day.

 

Obie Strickler, the CEO of Grown Rogue, invested USD$300,000 in the Private Placement and received 3,038,400 common shares of the Company. Such insider participation represents a related-party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”), however the transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the subject matter of the transaction, nor the consideration paid, exceed 25% of Grown Rogue’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Private Placement as the details of the participation by such insider was not settled until shortly prior to closing of the Private Placement.
