In accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Canopy Growth has agreed to acquire the Notes from the Noteholder for an aggregate purchase price (excluding accrued and unpaid interest which will be paid in cash as part of the Cash Payment) of C$7.17 million (approximately USD$5.5 million ) (the " Purchase Price "), which will be payable in such number of Canopy Shares (the " Share Consideration ") as is equal to the Purchase Price divided by the volume-weighted average trading price (the " VWAP ") of the Canopy Shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (the " Nasdaq ") for the 10 consecutive trading days beginning on, and including, June 30, 2022 (the " Averaging Price " and such period of time being the " Averaging Period "), subject to a floor price of US$2.50 (the "Floor Price") and a maximum price equal to US$3.50 , which is the closing price of the Canopy Shares on the Nasdaq on June 29, 2022 (the " Market Price ").

The Share Consideration will be satisfied by the issuance of Canopy Shares in up to two tranches as follows: (a) on the initial closing, 1,589,260 Canopy Shares (the " Initial Closing Shares ") will be issued to the Noteholder; and (b) in the event that the Averaging Price calculated over the Averaging Period is less than the Market Price, on or about July 18, 2022 (the " Final Closing "), up to such number of Canopy Shares as is equal to the excess of the Purchase Price divided by the Averaging Price over the Initial Closing Shares.

In the event that the daily VWAP of the Canopy Shares on the Nasdaq during the Averaging Period (a) exceeds the Market Price, then the daily VWAP for such trading day will instead be deemed to be the Market Price; or (b) is less than the Floor Price, then the daily VWAP for such trading day will instead be deemed to be the Floor Price, such that in no circumstances will more than 2,224,965 Canopy Shares be issuable pursuant to the Noteholder.

Leading global cannabis company continues to expand beverage portfolio with exciting new products

Canopy Growth Corporation ("Canopy Growth" or the "Company") (TSX: WEED) (NASDAQ: CGC), a world-leading diversified cannabis, hemp, and cannabis device company, today announced the continued expansion of its cannabis beverage portfolio and a brand campaign that drives awareness of its wide range of cannabis beverages just in time for the summer season. Boasting the category's fastest growing brands, 1 Canopy Growth continues to show its leadership in beverages and ongoing commitment to meeting customer demand.

The Company showcases its diverse portfolio of cannabis beverages in its new Just Hits Different brand campaign which offers adult consumers a new way to enjoy familiar experiences, and a different type of drink to consume during special summer occasions like long weekends. The campaign comes to life across digital and social channels and aims to drive traffic, create awareness, and convert sales in store.

The campaign also features an interactive and educational flavour sampling program, the biggest the category has ever seen. Consumers can visit one of more than 1,400 Canadian cannabis retail locations to try a non-active flavour sample of products like Tweed Fizz Mango, Tweed Iced Tea Lemon, Deep Space Limon Splashdown, and Quatreau Passionfruit & Guava. The pop-up sampling events give consumers an opportunity to learn about the products, engage with brand ambassadors, and experience the flavours before adding them to their shopping cart.

When consumers arrive in store, they will see a bigger-than-ever range of flavour-forward cannabis beverages from brands like Tweed, a 5 mg THC segment leader, and Deep Space, a high potency 10mg THC brand known for its bold, nostalgic flavours with a unique twist. Familiar favourites from Quatreau and Ace Valley , plus new offerings from Vert, round out the summer line-up, giving consumers a wide variety of options.

To make room for its new offerings and increased distribution, 785 fridges have been added in retail locations across the country, quadrupling their fridge footprint and further emphasizing the breadth and depth of their beverage portfolio.

"Our insights tell us that taste and seasonality play a key role in consumer choice, which is why we're excited to offer a range of new and familiar flavours for the summer," said Tara Rozalowsky , Vice President, Brand Marketing at Canopy Growth. "Our sampling events give consumers a chance to try our great-tasting beverage flavours, so when they're ready to add a beverage to their basket and experience cannabis in a whole new way, they know what our brands have to offer."

In addition to the recently announced Deep Space Orange Orbit and The Grape Unknown and range of Tweed Fizz and cannabis iced tea beverages, consumers will be able to enjoy three new beverage offerings debuting this summer:

Canopy Growth's beverage offerings are available for purchase via legal recreational cannabis retail locations and e-commerce channels, with select products available in certain regions and for a limited time only.
