GreenSpace Brands Inc. ("GreenSpace" or the "Company") (TSXV: JTR), a leader within the organic and plant-based food industry, announces that it has engaged a syndicate of underwriters, including PI Financial Corp., as lead underwriter and sole-bookrunner, and Canaccord Genuity Corp. (collectively, the "Underwriters"). The Offering will be conducted on a "bought deal" private placement basis and will consist of 41,700,000 units of the Company ("Units") issued at a price of $0.06 per Unit for gross proceeds to the Company of $2,502,000 ("Offering"). Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company ("Common Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant").

Each Warrant will entitle the holder of the Warrant to purchase one Common Share for $0.09 per share for up to 24 months from the Closing Date (as defined below).

The Company will grant the Underwriters an option to increase the size of the Offering by up to 15% at any time prior to the closing of the Offering, which is expected to be on or about September 28, 2021 or such other date or dates as the Company and the Underwriters may agree (the "Closing Date").

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used for working capital, investments in innovation, geographic and channel expansion, and general corporate purposes.

In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters shall be paid (i) a cash commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds of the Offering; and (ii) non-transferable broker warrants exercisable at any time until the day that is 18 months from the Closing Date to purchase that number of Common Shares that is equal to 7% of the aggregate number of Units sold under the Offering, at an exercise price of $0.06 per Common Share, subject to reduction to 3%, in each case, for certain agreed subscribers.

The Offering is subject to receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"). The Units and the securities issuable thereunder will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus a day from the Closing Date in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

PenderFund Capital Management Ltd., an insider and control person of the Company ("PenderFund"), intends to participate in the Offering. PenderFund and its affiliates beneficially own or control, directly or indirectly, 152,270,428 Common Shares, representing 33.5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis).

Management of GreenSpace Brands Inc. ("GreenSpace Management"), expects to subscribe for up to 5% of the Units under the Offering. GreenSpace Management beneficially own or control, directly or indirectly, 2,000,000 Common Shares representing 0.4% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis).

The portion of the Offering that PenderFund and GreenSpace Management subscribe to will each be considered a "related party transaction" under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") as PenderFund is an insider and control person of the Company and GreenSpace Management are insiders of the Company. Unless there is an exemption, the Company would be required to obtain a formal valuation and "minority shareholder approval", being approval of disinterested shareholders of the Company. The Company is relying on the exemption from a formal valuation available in section 5.5(a) of MI 61-101 and the exemption from minority approval available in section 5.7(a) of MI 61-101. The Company meets the requirements set out in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101 because the fair market value of the securities being distributed under the Offering, and to each of PenderFund and GreenSpace Management, is less than 25% of the market capitalization of the Company.
