The current global uncertainty with respect to the spread of the COVID-19, the rapidly evolving nature of the pandemic and local and international developments related thereto and its effect on the broader global economy and capital markets may impact the Issuer's business in the coming months.

The Issuer has taken proactive measures to protect the health and safety of its employees, to continue delivering high quality medical cannabis to its patients and to maintain its strong balance sheet. The Issuer has postponed planned investments in innovation until global economic risks subside. The Issuer keep on focusing on developing its brand in Germany by increasing volumes to medical patients in that market, adding supply and sales agreements in Israel.

While the precise impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Issuer remains unknown, rapid spread of COVID-19 and declaration of the outbreak as a global pandemic has resulted in travel advisories and restrictions, certain restrictions on business operations, social distancing precautions and restrictions on group gatherings which are having direct impacts on businesses in Canada, Israel, Germany and around the world and could result in additional precautionary measures that could impact the Issuer's business. The spread of COVID-19 may also have a material adverse effect on global economic activity and could result in volatility and disruption to global supply chains and the financial and capital markets, which could interrupt supplies and other services from third parties upon which the Issuer relies, decrease demand for products, cause staff shortages, reduced customer traffic, and increased government regulation, all of which may materially and negatively impact the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer.
