Medcolcanna Organics Inc. (“

Medcolcanna

”, “

MCCN

” or the “

Company

”) (TSXV: MCCN), a leading Colombian and globally integrated cannabis company, is pleased to announce that it has closed on the first tranche of its previously announced offering of convertible debentures, raising gross aggregate proceeds of approximately $1 million, being the full amount previously disclosed. The offering consists of convertible secured debentures (the “

Debentures

”). The Debentures are convertible into common shares in the capital of the Company (“

Common Shares

”) on the following terms: the Debentures will be convertible into Common Shares at a price of $0.20 per share and will have a term of two (2) years from the date of issuance, with interest payable twice yearly of fourteen percent (14%) per annum (simple not compounded), payable in cash or shares. The Debentures will be subject to earlier redemption by the Company in the event the Common Shares are trading on the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (or such other stock exchange on which the Common Shares may then be trading) at a volume weighted average trading price at or above $0.40 per share for a period of not less than ten (10) consecutive trading days.

The Debentures include five common share purchase warrants (each, a “Warrant”) for every one (1) dollar of principal amount of Debentures subscribed for, with each Warrant exercisable at a price of CDN$0.20 to purchase one Common Share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. The Warrants will have a forced conversion feature whereby the Company will have the option to force the conversion of Warrants upon the Common Shares trading on the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (or such other stock exchange on which the Common Shares may then be trading) at a volume weighted average trading price at or above $0.40 per share for a period of not less than ten (10) consecutive trading days.

The Debentures, and the Common Shares and Warrants issuable on the conversion thereof, are subject to a four month hold period and may not be traded on or before December 29, 2020. The transaction is non-brokered and is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company intends to use the proceeds for general working capital as well as the purchase of raw materials for use in the business and to cover manufacturing costs for the Company’s products.

In addition, the Company announces that due to the success of the Offering, it is increasing the size of the Offering to a maximum size of $1.25 million, subject to the receipt of all regulatory approvals, including those of the TSX Venture Exchange. Information with respect to the final closing of the Offering will follow in future press releases.
