On August 22 through 25, 2022, Lowell Farms Inc. (the “Company”) and Indus Holdings Company (“Indus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, sold US $2.2 million in convertible debentures maturing on October 13, 2023 (“Debentures”) and warrants. Each purchaser of a Debenture received, for no additional consideration, a warrant (a “Company Warrant”) to purchase subordinate voting shares of the Company (“Shares”) and a warrant (an “Indus Warrant”; the Company Warrants and the Indus Warrants together, the “Warrants”) for the purchase of non-voting shares of Indus (“Indus Shares”). The Debentures sold are convertible into an aggregate of 9,343,100 Shares and the Company Warrants sold are exercisable for an aggregate of 9,343,100 Shares.

 

Taken together with the sale of Debentures and Warrants reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 19, 2022 (the “August 19 8-K”), the Company and Indus sold a total of $6.4 million in Debentures and Warrants. Reference is made to the August 19 8-K for additional material terms of the Debentures and Warrants.  

 

Proceeds from the sale of the Debentures and Warrants are contemplated to be used for working capital purposes, automation investments and expansion into new markets.

 

The Debentures, their components and underlying securities were offered and will be issued in reliance upon Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as a transaction not requiring registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each investor represented that it is an accredited investor and that it is acquiring the securities for investment purposes only and not with a view to any resale, distribution or other disposition of such securities in violation of the United States federal securities laws. Such securities are “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and may not be transferred, sold or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered or an exemption is available under the Securities Act. Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K, nor the exhibit attached hereto, is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein.

 

The foregoing summaries of the terms of Debentures and Warrants and the subscription agreements related thereto do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the form of the Debentures, the Warrants and such subscription agreement, which are attached as exhibits to the August 19 8-K .
