Forward Looking Statement
    Certain information contained in this presentation constitutes “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. The use of any of the words “anticipate”, “continue”,
    “estimate”,“intend”,“potential”,“expect”, “may”, “will”, “project”,“proposed”, “should”, “believe” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information. These statements are not guarantees of future
    performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. In addition, this
    presentation may contain forward-looking information attributed to third party industry sources. The Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking information are reasonable but no assurance can be
    given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking information included in this presentation should not be unduly relied upon. Such information speaks only as of the date of this presentation or such
    other date indicated herein.

    In particular, this presentation contains forward-looking information pertaining to the following:
    • The Company’s intention to grow its business and operations;
    • expectations with respect to the approval of the Company’s licenses and permits;
    • the Company’s competitive position and the regulatory environment in which the Company operates;
    • the Company’s operations in the United States, the characterization and consequences of those options under federal law, and the framework for the enforcement of medical cannabis, adult-use cannabis and cannabis-related
        offenses in the United States;
    • the Company’s intention to exploit opportunities for the branding, transportation, distribution, and fulfillment of cannabis products in the United States;
    • the Company’s expected business objectives for the next twelve months.

    In making the forward-looking statements included in this presentation, the Company has made various material assumptions, including, but not limited to, (i) obtaining necessary regulatory approvals; (ii) that regulatory
    requirements will be maintained, (iii) general business and economic conditions, (iv) the Company’s ability to successfully execute its plans and intentions; (v) the availability of financing on reasonable terms; (vi) the Company’s
    ability to attract and retain skilled staff; (vii) market competition; (viii) the products and services offered by the Company’s competitors; and (ix) that the Company’s current result of the risk factors set forth below and in the
    Company’s continuous filings available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

    The Company is an early stage company with little operating history, a history of losses and the Company cannot assure profitability;
    if the Company is unable to attract and retain key personnel, it may not be able to compete effectively in the cannabis market;
    the Company’s industry is experiencing rapid growth and consolidation that may cause the Company to lose key relationships and intensify competition;
    some of the Company’s planned business activities, while believed to be compliant with applicable U.S. state and local law, are illegal under federal law;
    the Company may not be able to obtain all necessary California licenses and permits or complete the construction of its facilities in a timely manner, which could, among other things, delay or prevent the Company from becoming
    profitable; due to the classification of cannabis as a Schedule 1 controlled substance under the CSA, banks and other financial institutions which service the cannabis industry are at risk of violating certain financial laws, including
    anti-money laundering statutes; the Company may have difficulty accessing the services of banks and processing credit card payments in the future, which may make it difficult for the Company to operate or to transfer funds
    outside the United States; and
    any re-classification of cannabis or changes in the U.S. controlled substance laws and regulations may affect the Company’s 5432 business.

    These factors are not, and should not be construed as being, exhaustive. Information contained in forward-looking statements in this presentation is provided as of the date of this presentation, and the Company disclaims any
    obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or future events or results, except to the extent required by applicable securities laws. Accordingly, potential investors should not place
    undue reliance on forward-looking statements or the information contained in those statements.
