3.4 Adjustments

(a) Adjustment Date. Adjustments for the Purchased Assets shall be made as of the Closing Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Vendor shall be responsible for all expenses and shall be entitled to all revenues accrued with respect to the Purchased Assets for the period ending on the day before the Closing Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall be responsible for all expenses and shall be entitled to all revenues accruing with respect to the Purchased Assets for the period from and including the Closing Date.

amounts payable under the Assumed Contracts, operating costs, utilities, utility deposits, fuel, licenses necessary for the operation of the Property, and all other items normally adjusted between a vendor and purchaser in respect of the sale of property similar to the Property.

If the final cost or amount of an item which is to be adjusted has not been determined at Closing, then an initial calculation or adjustment for such item shall be made at Closing, such amount to be estimated by the Vendor, acting reasonably, as of the Closing Date on the basis of the best evidence available at Closing as to what the final cost or amount of such item will be. In each case, when such cost or amount is determined (such determination to be made as soon as possible and in any event prior to the first anniversary of Closing), the Vendor or the Purchaser shall, within thirty (30) calendar days of determination, provide a complete statement thereof to the other party and within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter, the Vendor and the Purchaser shall make a final adjustment as of the Closing Date for the item in question. All claims for re-adjustments must be made within twelve (12) months following Closing; provided, however, that after the expiry of such period, the Adjustments made by the parties shall be final and binding. In the absence of agreement by the parties, the final cost or amount of an item shall be determined by independent auditors, acceptable to the Vendor and the Purchaser, acting reasonably, with the cost of such auditors’ determination being shared equally between the Vendor and the Purchaser.

(e) Readjustments re Realty Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 3.4(d), the parties confirm and agree that following the Closing and due to the severance of the Purchased Lands from the Vendor Lands as contemplated herein, the Purchased Lands and the Remainder Lands will continue to be assessed together until such time as the Purchased Lands are separately assessed, and the Vendor will therefore continue to receive realty tax bills which will include realty tax amounts for both the Purchased Lands and the Remainder Lands (the “Tax Bills”). The parties therefore confirm and agree that following the Closing Date and until such time as the Purchased Lands and Remainder Lands are separately assessed for realty taxes, the parties’ respective proportionate shares of the realty taxes shall be calculated in accordance with the following proportionate shares, calculated based on current use of the Purchased Lands and Remainder Lands as at the Effective Date:

(i) Proportionate Share of Tax Bills attributable to the Remainder Lands = 27.6%

(ii) Proportionate Share of Tax Bills attributable to the Purchased Lands = 72.4%,

subject only to any increase in the taxes due to a change in use or tax class as a direct result of the Purchaser's purchase of the Purchased Lands, due to a change to or increase in use of the Remainder Lands by the Vendor or due to a change to or increase in use of the Purchased Lands. For clarity, neither party shall be liable for any increase in taxes due an increase in value, change in use, or change in tax class of the other Party’s lands.

The Vendor covenants and agrees that following the Closing Date and until such time as the Purchased Lands and the Remainder Lands are separately assessed for realty taxes, it shall provide to the Purchaser, promptly upon receipt, true copies of all Tax Bills, together with any correspondence and any other documentation relating thereto which comes into the possession or control of the Vendor following the Closing Date. The parties covenant and agree with the other that on or before the due date for each instalment of realty taxes, each party will remit their proportionate share of realty taxes owing directly to the appropriate Governmental Authority as provided for on each Tax Bill.

The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not merge on, but shall survive Closing.

3.5 Allocation of Purchase Price

The Vendor and the Purchaser agree in good faith to use reasonable efforts to agree, by the Closing Date, upon the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets. If no such agreement is reached by Closing, each of the Vendor and the Purchaser shall be free to make its own allocation.

3.6 Realty Tax Appeals & Efforts to Reduce Taxes

(a) To the extent the Purchaser receives payment of any refund or reassessment of realty taxes for any period up to but not including the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall hold such refund or reassessment payment in trust for the Vendor and shall deliver to the Vendor such payment cheques forthwith upon receipt. Similarly to the extent the Purchaser is reassessed and is required to pay an increase in taxes for any period up to but not including the Closing Date, the Vendor shall be responsible for and shall pay such tax increase.

(b) The Vendor agrees to cooperate in good faith with the Purchaser during the period from the Effective Date until such time as the Purchased Lands and the Remainder Lands are separately assessed, with respect to any efforts of the Purchaser to reduce the taxes owing with respect of the Purchased Assets, including but not limited to: (i) providing current and historical tax-related information or materials relating to the Purchased Assets within the possession of the Vendor to the Purchaser upon request; and (ii) consenting to, and cooperating with, the Purchaser in filing an appeal to the Assessment Review Board or an application to the relevant Court, should the Purchaser deem such an appeal or application necessary in order to seek the lowest possible assessment and property tax position possible for the Purchased Lands, provided that (x) all reasonable out of pocket expenses actually incurred by the Vendor in connection with its obligations under (ii) shall be reimbursed by the Purchaser, and (y) the Vendor shall not be obligated to authorize, consent or cooperate in any appeal or application if the Vendor determines, acting reasonably, that there is a reasonable probability that

such appeal or application will result in material adverse tax consequences for the Vendor (including the Vendor’s capacity as owner of the Remainder Lands).

(c) The Vendor further agrees to cooperate in good faith with the Purchaser to provide information, as reasonably requested by the Purchaser from time to time, to the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) as required in order for MPAC to separately assess the Purchased Lands and the Remainder Lands as soon as practicable following the severance of the Purchased Lands.

Article 4

The Purchaser and its Representatives shall have up to 5 pm ET on the first Business Day that is thirty (30) calendar days following the Effective Date (the “Due Diligence Period”) to: (a) obtain any necessary internal approvals for the Purchaser to consummate the transaction contemplated herein, including approval from The Hershey Company’s Board of Directors (the “Internal Approval Condition”); (b) finalize the Final List of Chattels and Final List of Excluded Chattels; and (c) examine the Purchased Assets, conduct searches, verify compliance with Applicable Laws and zoning, conduct tests, review financial information and other documents or information relating to the Purchased Assets (including the Vendor Deliveries and the Decommissioning Report) and otherwise satisfy itself, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the Purchased Assets (together with the Internal Approval Condition, the “Due Diligence Condition”).

During the Due Diligence Period, the Purchaser may elect to cancel this Agreement in accordance with Section 4.2.

4.2 Cancellation during Due Diligence Period

If the Purchaser is not satisfied, in its absolute discretion, with any aspect of the Purchased Assets or with the results of its review of the Vendor Deliveries or of any test, review or inspection carried out in respect of any part of the Purchased Assets, the Purchaser may elect to cancel this Agreement at any time before the last day of the Due Diligence Period (the “Due Diligence Date”) by delivery of written notice from the Purchaser or its solicitors to the Vendor or the Vendor’s Solicitors to this effect, without liability to the Purchaser for such termination save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement.

Upon delivery of a termination notice within the Due Diligence Period in accordance with this Section, the First Deposit and the Second Deposit paid by the Purchaser, together with all interest earned or accrued thereon, will be immediately returned to the Purchaser without deduction or set-off, and the Purchaser’s termination will be without liability to the Purchaser, save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement. If the Purchaser is satisfied, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the results of its review of the Purchased Assets, it will deliver written notice to the Vendor or its solicitors (the “Acceptance Notice”) to this effect or otherwise waive the condition in its favour contained in Section 7.1(a) below on or before the Due Diligence Date. If no such Acceptance Notice or waiver is delivered to the Vendor on or before the Due Diligence Date, the Purchaser will be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and the First Deposit and the Second Deposit, together with interest

earned or accrued thereon, will be immediately returned to the Purchaser without deduction or set-off, and the Purchaser’s termination will be without liability to the Purchaser, save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement.

4.3 Extended Due Diligence Period

Notwithstanding the foregoing Sections 4.1 and 4.2, in the event that prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, the Purchaser provides the Vendor with written notice confirming that it has determined, acting in good faith and in consultation with its consultants, that it requires additional time to complete its due diligence, finalize the Final List of Chattels and Final List of Excluded Chattels, or obtain the Internal Approval Condition (the “Extended Due Diligence Notice”), and provided that the Purchaser provides the Extension Deposit to the Agent in accordance with Section 3.2(c), Purchaser shall have up to thirty (30) additional calendar days, subject to the balance of this paragraph (the “Extended Due Diligence Period”) following the Due Diligence Date to continue to examine the Purchased Assets, conduct searches, verify compliance with Applicable Laws and zoning, conduct tests, review financial information and other documents or information relating to the Purchased Assets, finalize the Final List of Chattels and Final List of Excluded Chattels, and otherwise satisfy itself, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the Purchased Assets and to the extent necessary, obtain the Internal Approval Condition (the “Extended Due Diligence Condition”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser confirms and agrees that the Extended Due Diligence Period may not be extended past the last Business Day in the month of September, 2023 and therefore the latest possible Extended Due Diligence Date would be the last Business Day in the month of September, 2023.

For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser’s waiver or satisfaction of the Extended Due Diligence Condition shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Due Diligence Condition.

4.4 Cancellation During Extended Due Diligence Period

If the Purchaser is not satisfied, in its absolute discretion, with any aspect of the Purchased Assets or with the results of its review of the Vendor Deliveries or of any test, review or inspection carried out in respect of any part of the Purchased Assets, the Purchaser may elect to cancel this Agreement at any time during the Extended Due Diligence Period by delivery of written notice from the Purchaser or its solicitors to the Vendor or the Vendor’s Solicitors to this effect, without liability to the Purchaser for such termination save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement.

Upon delivery of a termination notice within the Extended Due Diligence Period in accordance with this Section, the First Deposit, the Extension Deposit and the Second Deposit paid by the Purchaser, together with all interest earned or accrued thereon, will be immediately returned to the Purchaser without deduction or set-off, and the Purchaser’s termination will be without liability to the Purchaser, save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement. If the Purchaser is satisfied, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the results of its review of the Purchased Assets, it will deliver an Acceptance Notice to this effect or otherwise waive the condition in its favour contained in Section 7.1(a) below on or before the expiration of the Extended Due Diligence Period (the “Extended Due Diligence Date”). If no such Acceptance Notice or waiver is delivered to the Vendor on or before the Extended Due Diligence Date, the Purchaser will be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and the First Deposit, the Extension Deposit and the Second Deposit, together with interest earned or accrued thereon, will be immediately returned to the Purchaser without

deduction or set-off, and the Purchaser’s termination will be without liability to the Purchaser, save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement.

4.5 Title Examination and Requisitions

On Closing, title to the Property will be good and free from all Encumbrances, except for the Permitted Encumbrances. The Purchaser will be allowed until the Due Diligence Date (or the Extended Due Diligence Date, if and as applicable) to examine the title to the Property at the Purchaser’s expense. If, during that time, any valid objection to title is made in writing to the Vendor which the Vendor is unable to remove or satisfy and which the Purchaser will not waive, this Agreement will, notwithstanding any intermediate acts or negotiations in respect of such objections, be terminated, save and except for the Purchaser’s obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement, and the First Deposit, the Extension Deposit (if and as applicable), and the Second Deposit, together with interest that has been earned or accrued thereon will be immediately returned to the Purchaser without deduction. Notwithstanding the period of time limited in this Section for the examination of title, the Purchaser’s right to make further requisitions on title and submit any valid objections with respect to title is reserved if any document is registered against title to the Property after the Purchaser completes its examination thereof after the Effective Date and save for any objection going to the root of title or Encumbrances arising after the expiration of the Due Diligence Date (or the Extended Due Diligence Date, if and as applicable).

Purchaser’s counsel shall prepare the initial draft of the Transition Services Agreement and shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to provide the Vendor with a first draft of the Transition Services Agreement within seven (7) Business Days

following the Effective Date. The Transition Services Agreement shall contain the key terms as set out in Schedule F.

8.5 Single Transaction

All documents and cheques shall be delivered in escrow on the Closing Date pending registration of the Closing Documents as reasonably required by the Purchaser’s Solicitors and the Vendor’s Solicitors. This transaction shall be completed electronically and in escrow according to the Land Registration Reform Act (Ontario) and the Electronic Registration Act (Ontario). Each party shall prepare its own portion of the electronic transfer/deed of land, at its own expense and shall pay the cost of registration and taxes on its own documents and in accordance with Section 8.3.

Where the transaction will be completed by electronic registration pursuant to Part III of the Land Registration Reform Act (Ontario), as well as the Electronic Registration Act (Ontario), inclusive of any amendments thereto, the Vendor and the Purchaser agree that the exchange of closing funds, non-registrable Closing Documents, as well as other items (the “Requisite Deliveries”) and the release thereof to the Vendor and Purchaser will (a) not occur at the same time as the electronic registration of the transfer/deed of land and any other documents intended and/or required to be registered in connection with the completion of the transaction contemplated herein, and (b) be subject to conditions whereby the Vendor’s Solicitors and the Purchaser’s Solicitors receiving any of the Requisite Deliveries shall be required to hold same in escrow and not release same except in accordance with the terms of a document registration agreement between such solicitors, the form of which shall be as recommended from time to time by the Law Society of Ontario, with such amendments as may be reasonably required and agreed to by the Purchaser’s Solicitors and the Vendor’s Solicitors. Such exchange of the Requisite Deliveries shall occur at such location as may be agreeable to the Purchaser’s Solicitors and the Vendor’s Solicitors.

8.6 Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents

The Vendor and the Purchaser acknowledge that there may be documents or materials located at the Property after Closing which contain proprietary or non-public information relating to the Vendor or its businesses and which were not removed from the Property prior to Closing, despite the Vendor using all reasonable efforts to remove same prior to Closing (“Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents”). Upon becoming aware of any such Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents located at the Property after Closing, the Purchaser shall notify the Vendor and the Vendor and its Representatives will be entitled to attend at the Property after Closing, at reasonable times and without interfering with the Purchaser’s use and enjoyment of the Property to retrieve same. In addition, upon the Vendor’s request, the Purchaser shall permit the Vendor and its Representatives to attend at the Property after Closing at reasonable times within the period that is sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, without interfering with the Purchaser’s use and enjoyment of the Property, to search for and retrieve any Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents which the Vendor reasonably believes are still located at the Property.

The Vendor acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding Section 11.10, the Confidentiality Agreement or any other provision contained herein:

(d) the Purchaser shall be under no obligation to search the Property for Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents after Closing nor to review every piece of paperwork remaining at the Property on Closing to identify any potential Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents located therein;

(e) following Closing, the Purchaser will have third party contractors and other parties on site who may come across Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents, and notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the Purchaser shall not be liable for any Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents falling into the hands of, being disposed by, or being otherwise dealt with by any such third party contractors or other parties on site after the Closing Date;

(f) while the Purchaser will make reasonable commercial efforts to identify Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents and notify the Vendor of same, the Purchaser is not privy to the business operations of the Vendor nor knowledgeable on cannabis production and therefore shall not be liable for misidentifying, misfiling, misplacing, disposing or otherwise dealing with the Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents; and

(g) the Vendor shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser harmless from and in respect of any and all Claims relating to (i) the Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents remaining at the Property following Closing; and (ii) the Vendor’s access to the Property in order to collect any Remaining Vendor Confidential Documents as provided for herein this Section 8.6.

The provisions of this Section 8.6 shall not merge on, but shall survive Closing, and shall be incorporated into the Transitional Services Agreement.

Article 9
OPERATION UNTIL CLOSING

9.1 Operation Until Closing

(a) Continued Management. During the Interim Period, the Vendor shall cause the Property to be maintained as would a prudent owner of a similar property having regard to the age of the Building and other relevant factors. During the Interim Period, the Vendor shall continue in force all policies of insurance currently maintained with respect to the Property and shall give all notices and present claims under all insurance policies in a timely fashion.

(b) Future Agreements. During the Due Diligence Period (and the Extended Due Diligence Period, if and as applicable) and/or the Interim period, the Vendor will not enter into any agreements or contracts relating to the Property or any agreements to lease or leases or subleases (collectively, for the purposes of this Section 9.1(b), the “New Agreements”) which will survive Closing without first obtaining the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. For the purposes of this Section 9.1(b), the Vendor will promptly deliver to the Purchaser a copy of all New Agreements affecting the Property as are from time to time proposed to be executed and all correspondence relating thereto, including sufficient financial information relating to any proposed tenant and/or contracting party to enable the Purchaser to make an informed consent decision. The Vendor will keep the Purchaser informed of all material developments in respect of the Purchased Assets, including any material requests received by the Vendor from any Governmental Authority.

(c) Termination of Agreements. The Vendor acknowledges and agrees that it will terminate, effective on the Closing Date, all contracts and operating agreements

in respect of the Property, including, but without limitation, all service and management agreements relating to the operation of the Property together with all guarantees, warranties and indemnities in connection therewith, other than the Assumed Contracts and the TSA Contracts. The Purchaser will not assume or bear any costs associated with the termination of any such agreements.

(d) No Disclaimer or Competing Sale. In the event the Vendor initiates any proceeding with respect to a compromise or arrangement with its creditors or for its winding up, liquidation or dissolution, the Vendor shall not make any attempt to disclaim this Agreement or seek approval for any other competing sale transaction in connection to the Purchased Assets. This provision shall not merge but shall survive Closing for a period of two (2) years.

(e) Key Employees. The Vendor acknowledges and agrees that it shall not terminate the employment of any Key Employees, as set out in the List of Key Employees from time to time, without providing the Purchaser with a minimum of two (2) weeks prior written notice.

9.2 Risk

The Property shall be at the risk of the Vendor until completion of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. If any loss or damage to the Property, in the aggregate of, in excess of $5,000,000, occurs on or before the Closing Date or if the Property or a material part of the Property is expropriated by a Governmental Authority, the Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable at its option, by notice in writing delivered to the Vendor within five (5) Business Days of notice being given by the Vendor to the Purchaser of the damage or expropriation or before the Closing Date, whichever is the earlier, to either terminate this Agreement or close this transaction in accordance with the provisions hereof. If the Purchaser fails to deliver such notice within such period, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed with the transaction in accordance with the provisions hereof. If the Purchaser terminates this Agreement, save and except in connection with the Purchaser’s obligation to repair and indemnify contained in the Access Agreement: (i) the Deposits, together with interest earned or accrued thereon, will be returned to the Purchaser without deduction or set‑off; (ii) this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force or effect whatsoever, (iii) the Purchaser and Vendor shall be released from all of their liabilities and obligations under this Agreement. If the Purchaser elects to close the transaction in accordance with the provisions hereof, or if any loss or damage is not in excess of $5,000,000, or if any expropriation of the Property is not material, the Purchaser shall be entitled to receive the full amount of any insurance proceeds in respect of any loss or damage to any Property and all expropriation proceeds, and the Vendor shall so assign and release its interest in any such insurance proceeds and expropriation proceeds. In addition, the Purchase Price for the Property, as the case may be, shall be reduced by an amount equal to any deductible under the applicable insurance coverage if such deductible is not paid by the Vendor.

9.3 Exclusivity

In consideration of the time, effort and expenses to be undertaken by Purchaser in connection with the pursuit of the transaction contemplated herein, the parties agree that the Vendor shall deal exclusively with the Purchaser, its affiliates and each of their successors and assigns from the Effective Date and until the Closing Date (“Exclusivity Period”). During the Exclusivity Period, the Vendor shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of its Representatives to, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, initiate or take any action with the primary intent

to facilitate or encourage any inquiries or the making of any proposal from a person or group of persons other than the Purchaser and its affiliates that may constitute, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any direct or indirect acquisition of the Purchased Assets (an “Alternative Transaction”); (ii) enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any person or group of persons other than Purchaser and its affiliates regarding an Alternative Transaction; or (iii) enter into an Alternative Transaction or any agreement, arrangement or understanding, including, without limitation, any letter of intent, term sheet, memorandum of understanding or other similar document, relating to an Alternative Transaction. The Vendor confirms that prior to the Effective Date and in accordance with the terms of the LOI, it has caused its Representatives to terminate all pre-existing discussions or negotiations with any person or group of persons other than Purchaser and its affiliates regarding an Alternative Transaction. Nothing herein shall prohibit or otherwise prevent the Vendor from discussing, entering into or consummating a transaction for all of or a majority of, the common shares of either Vendor or all or substantially all of the assets of the Vendor (either individually or collectively) (in either case, a “Sale of the Vendor’s Business”), provided that (i) such Sale of the Vendor’s Business is not entered into primarily as a means to diminish, defeat or otherwise circumvent the exclusivity obligations of the Vendor set forth herein; and (ii) any Sale of the Vendor’s Business shall be conditional upon the acquirer agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as if the acquirer was the original vendor party to same.

9.4 Default

For clarity and notwithstanding any other provision contained herein:

(a) Vendor’s Default. If Vendor fails or refuses to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and such failure or refusal is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after Vendor’s receipt of notice of such failure from Purchaser, such period of time in no event to extend beyond the Closing Date, then Purchaser shall be entitled to the return of the Deposits, without restricting the exercise by Purchaser of any other legal or equitable right or remedy that Purchaser may have against Vendor as a result of Vendor’s default (including but not limited to specific performance and injunction).

(b) Purchaser’s Default. If Purchaser fails or refuses to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and such failure or refusal is not cured within ten (10) Business Days after Purchaser’s receipt of notice of such failure from Vendor, then Vendor shall as its sole and exclusive remedy (by providing written notice thereof to Purchaser) retain the Deposits as full, complete and final liquidated damages, and not as a penalty. Vendor and Purchaser hereby agree that it would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain the damages accruing to Vendor as a result of a default by Purchaser under this Agreement, but that the parties have agreed upon the Deposits paid prior to the default as a reasonable estimate thereof. The payment of said liquidated damages, therefore, shall constitute Vendor’s sole and exclusive remedy against Purchaser at law and in equity and shall be in lieu of the exercise by Vendor of any other legal or equitable right or remedy that Vendor may have against Purchaser as a result of Purchaser’s default.

Article 10
PLANNING ACT COMPLIANCE

10.1 Planning Act Compliance

(a) This Agreement is entered into subject to the express condition that it is to be effective only if the provisions of Section 50 of the Planning Act, as may be amended, are complied with.

(b) The Vendor confirms that it has entered into negotiations with the Town with respect to the Town Lands Conveyance and from and after the Effective Date, the Vendor shall diligently pursue the completion of the Town Lands Conveyance, at its own expense. The Vendor shall keep the Purchaser updated on the status of such negotiations.

(c) In the event that the Town Lands Conveyance has not been completed by August 21, 2023 (the “Apply for Consent Date”), the Vendor, at its own expense, shall apply for and thereafter diligently pursue (including the preparation of any necessary reference plans) a consent to sever the Purchased Lands from the relevant Governmental Authority pursuant to Part VI of the Planning Act, including the satisfaction of all conditions imposed by any Governmental Authority in respect of such consent, except for conditions which are not pre-approved by the Purchaser, acting reasonably (“Unacceptable Conditions”), provided that the Vendor shall, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Purchaser in writing, also diligently continue to pursue the completion of the Town Lands Conveyance in accordance with Section 10.1(b) after the Apply for Consent Date, and if the Town Lands Conveyance is obtained, the Vendor shall not have any obligation to apply for and pursue such consent under the Planning Act. The Purchaser is not acting unreasonably in this Section if it does not pre-approve a condition that would materially impede or interfere with the Purchaser’s intended use of the Purchased Lands. Where any pre-approved condition gives the Vendor options in the manner of fulfillment, the Purchaser will be given the opportunity to determine which option is selected. For clarity, the Vendor shall be obliged to make timely appeal of any refusal of consent or failure to make a decision by any Governmental Authority, defend any appeal at its expense, redraft and resubmit the severance application, and take all such other actions as required in order to obtain the Severance Consent. The Vendor shall keep the Purchaser informed as to the status of the application for Severance Consent and all related proceedings, and shall provide the Purchaser with the opportunity to attend at any hearings or preliminary planning meetings with the Governmental Authority, and to otherwise actively participate in the Severance Consent application process to the extent desired by the Purchaser. All materials prepared and submitted to the relevant Governmental Authority (including but not limited to any necessary reference plans) shall first be provided to the Purchaser for review and approval, acting reasonably.

10.2 Extension of the Closing Date

In the event that Planning Act Compliance has not been obtained by the Planning Act Compliance Deadline, then each of the Vendor and the Purchaser shall have the right to unilaterally extend the Planning Act Compliance Deadline and the Closing Date, one or more times, in each instance by a minimum of thirty (30) and maximum of ninety (90) calendar days, in

order to facilitate obtaining Planning Act Compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Closing Date shall not be extended past September 30, 2024 (the “Outside Severance Date”).

10.3 Purchaser Self-Help Right

At any time after December 31, 2023, if: (a) the Town Lands Conveyance has not been completed and the Vendor has not obtained the Severance Consent; and (b) in the opinion of the Purchaser, acting reasonably, the Vendor is not diligently pursuing the Severance Consent, the Purchaser shall provide the Vendor with written notice setting out the basis for the Purchaser’s concerns. If after ten (10) calendar days following Vendor’s receipt of such notice, the Purchaser is not satisfied, acting reasonably, that the Vendor has addressed its noted concerns and recommenced diligent pursuit of the Severance Consent, then the Purchaser may at its option take over carriage of the severance consent application, and in such case the Vendor shall cooperate by providing the Purchaser with all severance consent materials in its possession, completing any and all required authorizations and assignment documentation required, and otherwise taking all steps necessary in order to give effect to the foregoing. For clarity, for the purposes of Section 53(1.1) of the Planning Act, as amended, this clause constitutes the Purchaser’s authorization in the above-described circumstances to make or continue the application for the Severance Consent. In such event, the Purchaser’s reasonable costs incurred in pursuing and obtaining the Severance Consent shall be deducted from the Purchase Price as an adjustment in favour of the Purchaser on the Statement of Adjustments on Closing.

10.4 Planning Act Compliance Not Obtained

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein this Agreement,

(a) if by the Outside Severance Date, Planning Act Compliance has not been obtained, or is not expected to be obtained by the Outside Severance Date, in the reasonable opinion of the Purchaser, then the parties confirm and agree that the Purchaser shall at its option be entitled to cancel this Agreement by delivery of written notice from the Purchaser or its solicitors to the Vendor or the Vendor’s Solicitors to this effect, without liability to the Purchaser for such termination save and except for its obligation to repair and indemnify pursuant to the Access Agreement; and

(b) if Planning Act Compliance has not been obtained by the Apply for Consent Date, the parties will thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate an agreement pursuant to which the Purchaser will have the option to purchase the whole of the Vendor’s Lands and lease back the Remainder Lands in the event that Planning Act Compliance is not obtained by the Outside Severance Date or is not expected to be obtained by the Outside Severance Date, in the reasonable opinion of the Purchaser. The parties acknowledge that any such agreement will be subject to the approval of the board of directors of the Vendor and the board of directors of the Purchaser.

Article 11

11.1 Joint and Several Liability of Vendor

Each of Canopy Growth Corporation and Tweed Inc. confirm and agree that they are each jointly and severally liable for the Vendor obligations provided for herein this Agreement.

11.2 Obligations as Covenants

Each agreement and obligation of the parties contained in this Agreement, even though not expressed as a covenant, shall be considered for all purposes to be a covenant.

11.3 Amendment of Agreement

No modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties in the same manner as the execution of this Agreement.

11.4 Further Assurances

11.5 Waiver

No waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be bound by the waiver or its solicitor. No waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a party in respect of any default, breach or non-observance or by anything done or omitted to be done by the other party. The waiver by a party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of that party’s rights under this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature).

11.6 Subdivision Control

This Agreement shall only be effective to create an interest in the Property if the subdivision control provisions of the Planning Act (Ontario), as amended, are complied with by the Vendor on or before the Closing Date.

11.7 Solicitors as Agents

Any notice, approval, waiver, agreement, instrument, document or communication permitted, required or contemplated by this Agreement may be given or delivered and accepted or received by the Purchaser’s Solicitors on behalf of the Purchaser and by the Vendor’s Solicitors on behalf of the Vendor, and any tender of Closing Documents and the balance of the Purchase Price may be made upon the Purchaser’s Solicitors and the Vendor’s Solicitors, as the case may be.

11.9 Public Announcements

Subject to the requirements of any Applicable Laws, neither party will make any public announcement or statement with respect to this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby without the consent of the other party.

11.10 Confidentiality

“Confidential Information” means confidential information, including the terms and existence of this Agreement, any information that the Purchaser or Vendor makes available to the other in connection with this Agreement, including all of the Vendor Deliverables, and any other proprietary or non-public information. Each party shall keep the other party’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, and shall not disclose any Confidential Information, other than to its directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, and Representatives who need to know the Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement, or discussing the transaction contemplated herein. Confidential Information does not include information that is: (a) otherwise public, so long as it did not become public due to a breach hereof; (b) known by the receiving party before the other party discloses it; (c) independently developed by the receiving party; or (d) disclosed by a source who does not have an obligation to treat the information as confidential. The parties each may disclose the other’s Confidential Information to the extent the parties are required to by law, regulation, or court or governmental order; but first, the party who is being required to disclose shall give the other party prompt and reasonable prior written notice of the disclosure, use reasonable efforts to resist disclosing the Confidential Information, and cooperate with the other party to limit such disclosure. This confidentiality provision survives termination of the Agreement, until such information is not considered confidential pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

In addition to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties confirm and agree that this Agreement is subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, which continues in full force and effect regardless of any termination of this Agreement. The confidentiality obligations set forth in this Section 11.10 shall be in addition to and not in substitution of the obligations set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement, provided that in the event of an inconsistency between the Confidentiality Agreement and the terms herein this Agreement, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall prevail. The parties confirm and agree that notwithstanding that Tweed Inc. is not a party to the Confidentiality Agreement, Tweed Inc. shall abide and be jointly and severally bound by the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement applicable to Canopy Growth Corporation contained therein as if it had been an original party to the Confidentiality Agreement.

11.11 Expenses & Broker Commissions

Each party shall be responsible for its own legal and other expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Vendor confirms and agrees that it is responsible (under separate agreement) to pay the Purchaser’s Broker any fees or commissions owing in respect of the purchase and sale of the Purchase Assets and to indemnify the Purchaser in respect of any Claims or demands thereof. The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Vendor that it has not engaged any real estate agent or broker in connection with this Agreement or the Property other than the Purchaser’s Broker and agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Vendor in respect of any Claims or demands for commission or fees made by any other agent or broker other than the Purchaser’s Broker claiming to have been so engaged by or on behalf of the Purchaser. The Vendor represents and warrants to the Purchaser that it has not engaged any real estate agent or broker in connection with this Agreement or the Property and agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Purchaser in respect of any Claims or demands for commission or fees made by any other agent or broker claiming to have been so engaged by or on behalf of the Vendor. Such indemnities shall survive the Closing hereof.

11.12 Assignment

The Purchaser shall not be entitled to assign this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may assign this Agreement without the consent of the Vendor to an affiliate (as such term is defined in the Canada Business Corporations Act) of the Purchaser provided that contemporaneously with any assignment the Purchaser and the assignee deliver evidence satisfactory to the Vendor (acting reasonably) that the assignee is an affiliate (as such term is defined in the Canada Business Corporations Act) of the Purchaser and the assignee agrees in writing with the Vendor to assume and be bound by this Agreement, as purchaser, and the covenants and obligations of the Purchaser herein. In the event of any such assignment, on Closing, the Purchaser shall be released of any obligations in connection with this Agreement.

11.13 Successors and Assigns

All of the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall enure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
