On December 8, 2023, the Issuer announced a 3-month delay of the anticipated medical cannabis reform announced
by the Israeli ministry of health on August 7, 2023 (the "Reform"). Due to the Israel-Hamas war, the anticipated implementation of the medical cannabis regulatory reform, originally scheduled for December 29, 2023, has been postponed by
three months. The new regulations were designed to alleviate many of the stringent restrictions in the sector, thereby enhancing access to medical cannabis for patients. In addition to the regulatory reform, the Medical Cannabis Unit of the
Ministry of Health released new report that shows, among other statistics, data on the number of patients obtaining medical cannabis licenses. There was a notable surge in the number of new medical cannabis patients in November 2023, with
3,254 new patients receiving licenses, the largest increase in new patients per month since 2021.

On December 28, 2023 a settlement was reached in the Planning and Construction Legal Proceedings against Focus Medical Herbs Ltd. (“Focus Medical”), a company over which the Issuer maintains “de facto” control.
As previously disclosed in the Issuer’s annual information form dated April 26, 2021, and the press release dated July 13, 2021, as well as in the Issuer's financial statements and MD&A until this date, certain allegations were made
against Focus Medical regarding inadequate permitting for construction at its cultivation facility. The settlement involved Focus Medical, and Oren Shuster, Refael Gabay, and Yaron Berger, the former CEO of Focus Medical, along with the three
landowners on whose property Focus Medical operated the cultivation facility. The settlement resulted in the dismissal of all criminal charges against the individual defendants, with only Focus Medical being charged. Focus Medical received a
monetary fine of approximately 129,000 CAD (350,000 NIS), payable in 10 installments. After a long legal process since the indictment, Focus Medical has destroyed all the buildings that didn’t have the construction permits, closed the
cultivation facility in Sdei Avraham in June 2022, ceased with its cultivation operation and now focusing on import and sales operations. Currently, the Issuer's management do not anticipate a material impact on the licensing or normal course
of operations for Focus Medical due to the indictment and the settlement that has been achieved.
