4.16 Limitation of Liability.

Each Party, as a material inducement to the other Party to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, hereby expressly waives its right to assert any claim relating to such damages and agrees not to seek to recover such damages in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, such third parties specifically including employees and creditors of the Company.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. If the Closing occurs, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that, as of the Closing:

3.1 Authorization. The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into the Transaction Agreements. The Transaction Agreements to which the Purchaser is a party, when executed and delivered by the Purchaser (and assuming the execution and delivery thereof by the Company), will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies; or (b) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Stockholders’ Agreement may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser’s representation to the Company, which by the Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Purchased Stock to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer, or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to the Purchased Stock. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Purchased Stock.

3.3 Disclosure of Information. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management, financial affairs, and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Purchased Stock with the Company’s management and has had an opportunity to review the Company’s facilities. In addition, the Company has made available to the Purchaser all information and documents requested by the Purchaser. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of the Purchaser to rely thereon.

3.4 Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Purchased Stock has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act and State Securitities Law Lw, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act or State Securities Laws,which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein. The Purchaser understands that the Purchased Stock is a “restricted security” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Purchased Stock indefinitely unless it is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Purchased Stock. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements, including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Purchased Stock, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

3.5 No Public Market. The Purchaser understands that no public market now exists for the Purchased Stock, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Purchased Stock.

11

3.6 Legends. The Purchaser understands that, if certificated the Purchased Stock may bear one or all of the following legends:

| (a) | “THE STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG THE STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, GIFT, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, HYPOTHECATION, OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT.
|  | THE STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, GIFTED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED, OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO (A) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT EFFECTIVE UNDER SUCH ACT AND LAWS, OR (B) AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER.”

(b) Any legend set forth in, or required by, the other Transaction Agreements; and

(c) Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Purchased Stock represented by the certificate so legended.

3.7 Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor,” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

3.8 No General Solicitation. Neither the Purchaser, nor any of its equity holders, directors, managers, officers, employees, agents, or partners has either directly or indirectly, including through a broker or finder, (a) engaged in any general solicitation, or (b) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Purchased Stock.

3.9 Residence. The address of the principal place of business of the Purchaser is set forth on the signature page hereto.

3.10 Cannabis Activity. The Purchaser acknowledges that (i) cannabis and THC-related products are identified as a Schedule I Drug under the United States Controlled Substances Act and are therefore illegal under federal law, and that the Company’s business is directly or indirectly engaging in, the cultivation, manufacture, distribution, processing, and/or transportation of cannabis, (ii) activities relating to cannabis are highly regulated in jurisdictions which provide a regulatory structure for the legal (for their jurisdiction) ownership and operation of a business operating in the cannabis business, and (iii) certain regulations may require disclosure of personal information about the owners of, and others with a financial interest in, a cannabis business.

3.11 Litigation. There is no claim, action, suit, proceeding, arbitration, complaint, charge or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s Knowledge, currently threatened in writing or verbally (a) against the Purchaser or any officer or Director of the Purchaser arising out of their employment or managerial relationship with the Purchaser; (b) that questions the validity of the Transaction Agreements

12

or the right of the Purchaser to enter into or to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements; or (c) that would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Purchaser, nor any of its officers or Directors is a party or is named as subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment, or decree of any court or government agency or instrumentality (in the case of officers or Directors, such as would affect the Purchaser). There is no action, suit, proceeding, or investigation by the Purchaser pending or which the Purchaser intends to initiate. The foregoing includes, without limitation, actions, suits, proceedings, or investigations pending or threatened in writing (or any basis therefor to the Purchaser’s Knowledge) involving the prior employment of any of the Purchaser’s employees, their services provided in connection with the Purchaser’s business, any information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employers.

3.12 Confidentiality of Company’s Documents. If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not be consummated, confidence shall be maintained and, upon written request from the Company to Purchaser, all documents furnished to Purchaser in connection with the Agreement shall immediately be returned to the Party which furnished the particular document to Purchaser.

3.13 Financial Capacity. At the Closing, Purchaser will have sufficient capitalization and the financial ability to perform fully its obligations under this Agreement.

3.14 Indebtedness. Purchaser has no Knowledge of any past, current, or pending indebtedness that would prevent Purchaser from fully performing its payment obligations under this Agreement. The Purchaser is current on all payment of all its existing indebtedness and the Purchaser has no Knowledge of any current or pending defaults under any of its indebtedness.

3.15 Company Permits. Purchaser represents that Purchaser knows of no reason that Purchaser will not qualify for the Company Permits.

3.16 Disclosure. The Purchaser has made available to the Company all the information reasonably available to the Purchaser that the Company has requested for deciding whether to acquire the Purchased Stock. It is understood that this representation is qualified by the fact that the Purchaser has not delivered to the Company, and has not been requested to any written disclosure of the types of information customarily furnished to the seller of securities.

(or its successors) as published in The Wall Street Journal at the time of delivery of such promissory note.

4.11 Disassociation of a Stockholder. The death of a Stockholder or the Person controlling the Stockholder will cause such Stockholder to become a Disassociated Stockholder; provided, that the executor, administrator or other legally authorized personal representative of such Stockholder or the Person controlling the Stockholder shall have all of the rights of a Stockholder for the sole purpose of settling or managing his/her estate and shall have only such power as the Stockholder possessed to make a Permitted Transfer in accordance with the terms hereof. If such Permitted Transfer does not occur within sixty (60) days after the death of the Stockholder or the Person controlling the Stockholder, the Disassociated Stockholder or its legal representative, successor or assign shall thereafter have only those rights of an Assignee under this Agreement; provided, that the Disassociated Stockholder or its legal representative, successor or assign may thereafter request admission to the Company as a Substitute Stockholder pursuant to Section 4.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Caitlan Blackwell has died, then, Quinn Blackwell shall have right to purchase all of the membership interests in CMB INVESTCO 609 LLC from Caitlan Blackwell and shall become the owner of CMB INVESTCO 609 LLC and shall be deemed to be Substitute Stockholder for the ownership of CMB INVESTCO 609 LLC unless he fails to comply with Section 4.3.2

4.12 Voting Rights. Except for the election of Directors upon a vacancy or as otherwise required by Applicable Law or as provided in this Agreement, Stockholders shall have no voting, approval or consent rights. Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or as provided in this Agreement, in matters on which Stockholders are entitled to vote (other than any matters where certain specified Stockholders have a separate approval right hereunder), the vote of each Stockholder shall be counted based upon the number of shares of Voting Stock held by such Stockholder.

13

and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or general equity principles (regardless of whether considered at law or in equity); and

4.17.9 If applicable, neither the issuance of any Stock to any Stockholder nor any provision contained herein will entitle the Stockholder to remain in the employment of the Company or affect the right of the Company to terminate the Stockholder’s employment at any time for any reason, other than as otherwise provided in such Stockholder’s employment agreement or other similar agreement with the Company, if applicable.

4.17.10 The Company and the Stockholders acknowledge and agree that the Voting Stock being issued to the Investor Stockholder was originally issued by the Company to the Investor Stockholder.

4.18 Additional Licenses Awarded to Company.

The Investor Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that the CRC may issue an additional license for retail sales of cannabis based upon the Company’s cannabis cultivation license. The Investor Stockholder shall not be required to make any additional payments to the Founding Stockholders for the award of a retail cannabis license, however, the Investor Stockholder agrees to lend the Company up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per retail location to prepare such retail location for opening and providing the necessary working capital for such retail location (each such loan, a “Retail Loan”). Each Retail Loan shall bear interest at the rate of 12.5% per annum and shall have a single balloon payment of the principal and accrued interest thereon due in a single payment on the second anniversary of the Retail Loan.

4.19 Non-Dilution of Investor Stockholder. The Company and the Stockholders acknowledge and agree that so long as the Investor Stockholder holds any Purchased Stock, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to ensure that no dilution to the Purchased Stock (and accordingly the Stockholder Percentage Interest of the Investor Stockholder) shall occur without the prior written consent of the Investor Director, it being understood that any issuance of Stock by the Company in connection with any agreement or other arrangement between any Stockholder other than the Investor Stockholder (a “Non-Investor Stockholder”) and any Person including, without limitation, any other Non-Investor Stockholder (a “Non-Investor Dilution Event”), shall only dilute the Stock held by the Non-Investor Stockholders, and not the Purchased Stock. Upon the occurrence of a Non-Investor Dilution Event, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Investor, and upon the approval of the Investor, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Section 4.19 which may include, without limitation, issuing additional Stock to the Investor for no additional consideration so that the Stockholder Percentage Interest of the Investor is not decreased, and such additional Stock shall be deemed to be Purchased Stock for all purposes hereunder. The Investor may waive the rights provided under this Section 4.19 in its sole and absolute discretion. Unless otherwise agreed by the Investor Stockholder in writing, the Non-Investor Stockholders, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, defend and hold the Investor Stockholder, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any and all settlements, judgments, awards, fines, penalties, interest, liabilities, losses, costs, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, audit expenses and disbursements and court costs) (collectively, “Costs”) sustained or incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties based upon, relating to or arising from, any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings or investigations arising out of or pertaining to any commitments, arrangements, rights or other obligations of the Company and/or any Non-Investor Stockholder including, without limitation, any warrant (each, a “Commitment”) (i) to share in the profits or revenues of the Company, (ii) to issue or sell, or caused to be issued or sold, any additional equity

14

interests of, or any security convertible or exchangeable for any equity interests of, the Company, (iii) to issue or sell, or caused to be issued or sold any equity equivalents, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, phantom stock ownership interests or similar rights pertaining to the Company or any Non-Investor Stockholder or (iv) to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any equity interests of the Company, or any security convertible or exchangeable therefor.

ARTICLE 5

STOCK PURCHASE AND CAPITAL CALLS

5.1 Stock Purchase Price. Each Stockholder has paid the Stock Purchase Price to the Company and, in exchange for the payment of such Stock Purchase Price, each Stockholder shall have the rights set forth in this Agreement.

5.2 Additional Stock Payments.

5.2.1 The Stockholders shall purchase additional Stock in cash, in proportion to their respective Stockholder’s Percentage Interests, as determined by the Board from time to time to be reasonably necessary to pay any operating or other expenses relating to the business of the Company (such additional payments for Stock, the “Additional Stock Payments”); provided, that the amount of such Additional Stock Payment shall not exceed the corresponding amounts expressly provided for in the then-current Annual Budget. Upon the Board making a unanimous determination to call for the purchase of additional Stock, the Board shall deliver to the Stockholders a written notice of the Company’s need for Additional Stock Payments, which notice shall specify in reasonable detail (i) the purpose for such Additional Stock Payments, (ii) the aggregate amount of such Additional Stock Payments, (iii) each Stockholder’s pro rata share of such aggregate amount of Additional Stock Payments (based upon such Stockholder’s Percentage Interest) and (iv) the date (which date shall not be less than twenty (20) Business Days following the date that such notice is given) on which such Additional Stock Payments shall be required to be made by the Stockholders (“Call Notice”).

5.2.2 If any Stockholder shall fail to timely make, or notifies the other Stockholders that it shall not make, all or any portion of any Additional Stock Payments which such Stockholder is obligated to make under Section 5.2.1, then such Stockholder shall be deemed to be a “Non-Contributing Stockholder.” Each Stockholder that is not a Non-Contributing Stockholder (a “Contributing Stockholder”) shall be entitled, but not obligated, to loan to the Non-Contributing Stockholder, by contributing to the Company on its behalf, all or any part of the amount (the “Default Amount”) that the Non-Contributing Stockholder failed to contribute to the Company (each such loan, a “Default Loan”); provided, that such Contributing Stockholder shall have contributed to the Company its pro rata share of the applicable Additional Stock Payments. Such Default Loan shall be treated as Additional Stock Payments by the Non-Contributing Stockholder. Each Default Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time remaining from the date advanced until repaid, at the lesser of (i) the prime rate as published the date advanced in the Western Edition of The Wall Street Journal plus 2% per annum, and (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law (the “Default Rate”). Each Default Loan shall be recourse debt. Default Loans shall be repaid out of the distributions that would otherwise be made to the Non-Contributing Stockholder hereunder. So long as a Default Loan is outstanding, the Non-Contributing Stockholder shall have the right to repay it (together with interest then due and owing) in whole or in part. Upon a repayment in full of a Default Loan made to a Non-Contributing Stockholder (prior to its conversion pursuant to a Cram-Down Contribution (as defined below)), such Non-Contributing Stockholder (so long as it is not otherwise a Non-Contributing Stockholder with respect to any other Additional Stock Payments) shall cease to be a Non-Contributing Stockholder.

15

5.2.3 At any time after the first anniversary of the date that the Call Notice is given, at the option of the Contributing Stockholder, (i) such Default Loan (if not previously paid in full) shall be converted into Additional Stock Payments of the Contributing Stockholder in an amount equal to the unpaid principal and unpaid interest on such Default Loan pursuant to this Section 5.2.3, (ii) the Non-Contributing Stockholder shall be deemed to have received a distribution of an amount equal to the unpaid principal and interest on such Default Loan, (iii) such distribution shall be deemed paid to the Contributing Stockholder in repayment of the Default Loan, and (iv) such amount shall be deemed contributed by the Contributing Stockholder as Additional Stock Payments (a “Cram-Down Contribution”). A Cram-Down Contribution shall be deemed Additional Stock Payments by the Contributing Stockholder making (or deemed making) such Cram-Down Contribution as of the date such Cram-Down Contribution is made or the date on which such Default Loan is converted to a Cram-Down Contribution. At the time of a Cram-Down Contribution, the Contributing Stockholder’s Percentage Interest shall be increased proportionally by the amount of such contribution, thereby diluting the Non-Contributing Stockholder’s Percentage Interest, and the Board shall update the Stockholders Schedule accordingly without the need for any consent or approval by the Stockholders. Once a Cram-Down Contribution has been made (or deemed made), (x) no subsequent payment or tender in respect of the Cram-Down Contribution shall affect the Stock of the Stockholders, as adjusted in accordance with this Section 5.2.3 and (y) the Non-Contributing Stockholder as to which the Cram-Down Contribution is made (or deemed made) shall (so long as it is not otherwise a Non-Contributing Stockholder with respect to any other Additional Stock Payments) cease to be a Non-Contributing Stockholder.

5.2.4 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any amount that otherwise would be paid or distributed to a Non-Contributing Stockholder pursuant to Section 7.1 or otherwise shall not be paid to the Non-Contributing Stockholder but shall be deemed paid and applied on behalf of such Non-Contributing Stockholder (i) first, to accrued and unpaid interest on all Default Loans (in the order of their original maturity date), (ii) second, to the principal amount of such Default Loans (in the order of their original maturity date) and (iii) third, to any Additional Stock Payments of such Non-Contributing Stockholder that has not been paid and is not deemed to have been paid.

5.2.5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Non-Contributing Stockholder fails to make its Additional Stock Payments in accordance with Section 5.2.1, without limitation of any other available rights or remedies that may be available, the Contributing Stockholder may:

(a) institute proceedings against the Non-Contributing Stockholder, either in the Contributing Stockholder’s own name or on behalf of the Company, to obtain payment of the Non-Contributing Stockholder’s portion of the Additional Stock Payments, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date that such Additional Stock Payments was due until the date that such Additional Stock Payments are made, at the cost and expense of the Non-Contributing Stockholder; or

(b) purchase the Stock of the Non-Contributing Stockholder at a price equal to Call FMV, provided, however, for each month that the Non-Contributing Stockholder fails to make its Additional Stock Payments, which is after the first annual anniversary date of the Default Loan, Call FMV shall be reduced by two and one half percent (2.5%) per month with the maximum reduction in the Call FMV of fifteen percent (15%) of the Call FMV and after the six (6) month anniversary of the first annual anniversary date of the Default Loan, then the Contributing Stockholder shall receive the increase in the Contributing Stockholder’s Percentage Interest based upon the Cram-Down Contribution effective on the six (6) month anniversary of the first annual anniversary date of the Default Loan.

5.2.6 Each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to determine the actual damages incurred by a Contributing Stockholder as a result of a failure of a Stockholder to fund its portion of an Additional Stock Payments, and that the entitlement of a Contributing Stockholder to exercise the remedies described in this Section 5.2 is fair and reasonable.

16

5.2.7 Except as set forth in this Section 5.2, no Stockholder shall be required to make Additional Stock Payments or make loans to the Company.

ARTICLE 6

MANAGEMENT

6.1 Establishment of the Board. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and/or the Act relating to actions required to be approved by the Stockholders, the business, property and affairs of the Company shall be managed by, and all powers of the Company shall be exclusively exercised by or under the direction of, a Board of Directors (the “Board”) comprised of natural person (each, a “Director”). Each Director shall be deemed to be a “director” within the meaning of the Act. The Board shall act collectively by majority vote in all matters, unless otherwise expressly required by the Act or this Agreement. The Board shall have the power to do any and all acts necessary or convenient to or for the furtherance of the purposes described herein, including all powers, statutory or otherwise, possessed by directors under the laws of the State of New Jersey. Without limiting the foregoing, each Director shall have the ability and the authority to execute and deliver contracts instruments binding upon the Company, and the Board may delegate such authority to officers of the Company, but, in each case, solely to the extent such Director or such officers are authorized and directed by the Board including the Investor Director to do so or are otherwise authorized pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

6.2 Board Composition. The Board shall be comprised of three (3) persons designated as follows: (i) as long as the Initial Stockholders hold a Majority-in-Interest, the Initial Stockholders shall have the right to designate two (2) Directors (each, a “Founding Director”); provided, that at such time as the Initial Stockholders do not hold a Majority-in-Interest, the Initial Stockholders shall have the right to designate one (1) Director; and (ii) as long as the Investor Stockholder holds less than a Majority-in-Interest, the Investor Stockholder shall have the right to designate one (1) Director (an “Investor Director”); provided, that at such time as the Investor Stockholder holds a Majority-in-Interest, the Investor Stockholder shall have the right to designate two (2) Directors. The Founding Director(s) and the Investor Director(s) shall be set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto (the “Directors Schedule”), which shall be amended from time to time in accordance herewith. It is an express condition precedent to the designation and election of any Director that such Director covenant and agree to observe and comply with the obligations and responsibilities of a Director required by the Act and this Agreement.

6.3 Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board shall be held at least once during each quarter of the Company’s Fiscal Year unless otherwise agreed by the Board including the Investor Director. Special meetings of the Board may be called by one (1) of the Directors designated pursuant to Section 6.1. All meetings shall be held upon four (4) Business Days’ notice by mail or two (2) Business Days’ notice (or upon such shorter notice period if necessary under the circumstances) delivered personally or by telephone or email. A notice need not specify the purpose of any meeting. Notice of a meeting need not be given to any Director who signs a waiver of notice or a consent to holding the meeting, which waiver or consent need not specify the purpose of the meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof, whether before or after the meeting, or who attends the meeting without protesting, prior to its commencement, the lack of notice to such Director. All such waivers, consents and approvals shall be filed with the Company records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting. A majority of the Board present, whether or not a quorum is present, may adjourn any meeting to another time and place. If the meeting is adjourned for more than twenty-four (24) hours, notice of any adjournment shall be given prior to the time of the adjourned meeting to the Directors who are not present at the time of the adjournment. Meetings of the Board may be held at any place within or without the State of New Jersey which has been designated in the notice of the meeting or at such place as may be approved by the Board. Directors may participate in a meeting through use of conference telephone or similar communications equipment, so long as all Directors participating in such meeting can hear one another. Participation in a meeting in such manner constitutes a presence in person at such meeting. A majority of the authorized number of Directors and the presence of at least one (1) Investor Director and at least one (1) Founding Director constitutes a quorum of the Board for the

17

transaction of business. Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires the unanimous approval of all Directors or the approval of the Investor Director, every act or decision done or made by a majority of the Directors present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board. A meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal of one (1) or more Directors, if any action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board may be taken by the Board without a meeting subject to the applicable approval rights of the Directors. Such action by written consent shall have the same force and effect as an action taken at a meeting of the Board. If the written consent is not delivered to all Directors more than forty-eight (48) hours prior to the time of the taking of such action, the action shall not be taken until forty-eight (48) hours have elapsed from the time notice of the approval of the written consent was given to all Directors.

ADDITIONAL RIGHTS REGARDING THE TRANSFER OF STOCK

12.1 Rights of First Refusal. Other than in the case of any Permitted Transfer, each time any Stockholder that owns less than forty-nine percent of the issued and outstanding Stock (or its Permitted Transferee) (the “Transferring Stockholder”) proposes to transfer all or any portion of its Stock (or is required to do so by operation of law or other involuntary means except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement), such Stockholder shall first comply with the following provisions and the provisions of Section 12.2 below:

12.1.1 The Transferring Stockholder shall deliver a written notice (the “Transfer Notice”) to the other Stockholders and the Company stating (i) the Transferring Stockholder’s bona fide intention to transfer such Stock, (ii) the Stockholder’s Percentage Interest to be transferred, (iii) the purchase price and terms of payment for which the Transferring Stockholder proposes to transfer such Stock, and (iv) the name and address of the proposed transferee (the “Proposed Transferee”).

12.1.2 For a period of thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of the Transfer Notice, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase all or any portion of the Stock upon the price and terms of payment designated in the Transfer Notice. If the Transfer Notice provides for the payment of non-cash consideration, the Company may elect to pay the consideration in cash equal to the good faith estimate of the present Fair Market Value of the non-cash consideration offered as determined by the Board. Within thirty (30) Business Days after receipt of the Transfer Notice, the Board on behalf of the Company, to the extent the Company is electing to purchase the Stock pursuant to this Section 12.1.2, shall notify the Transferring Stockholder and the non-Transferring Stockholders in writing of the Company’s intent to purchase all or any portion of the Stock proposed to be so transferred. The failure of the Company to submit a notice within the applicable period shall constitute an election on the part of the Company not to purchase any of the Stock which may be so transferred.

12.1.3 If the Company does not elect to purchase all of the Stock proposed to be transferred within the thirty (30)-day period described in Section 12.1.2, the other Stockholders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to purchase any remaining portion of such Stock (the “Remaining Stock”) upon the price and terms of payment designated in the Transfer Notice. If the Transfer Notice provides for the payment of non-cash consideration, the other Stockholders each may elect to pay the consideration in cash equal to the good faith estimate of the present Fair Market Value of the non-cash consideration offered as determined by the Board. Within fifteen (15) Business Days following the expiration of the thirty (30)-day period described in Section 12.1.2, each Stockholder electing to purchase the Remaining Stock pursuant to this Section 12.1.3 shall notify the Board and the Transferring Stockholder in writing of such Stockholder’s desire to purchase a portion of the Remaining Stock. The failure of any Stockholder to submit a notice within the applicable period shall constitute an election on the part of that Stockholder not to purchase any of the Remaining Stock. The Stockholder’s Percentage Interest that each Stockholder shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 12.1.3 shall be determined based upon the proportion that the Stockholder’s Percentage Interest of such Stockholder bears to the aggregate of the all of the Stockholders’ Percentage Interests electing to purchase the Remaining Stock. In the event any

28

Stockholder elects to purchase none or less than all of such Stockholder’s pro rata share of such Remaining Stock, then the other Stockholders may elect to purchase more than their pro rata share.

12.1.4 If the Company and the other Stockholders elect to purchase or obtain any or all of the Stock designated in the Transfer Notice, then (a) the closing of such purchase shall occur no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the date of the Transfer Notice and (b) the Transferring Stockholder, the Company, and the other Stockholders, as applicable, shall execute such documents and instruments and make such deliveries as may be reasonably required to consummate such purchase.

12.1.5 Subject to Section 12.2 below, if the Company and the other Stockholders elect not to purchase or obtain, or default in their obligation to purchase or obtain, the Stock which they have elected to purchase, then the Transferring Stockholder may transfer any such Stock not so purchased to the Proposed Transferee; provided that such Transfer (a) is completed within sixty (60) calendar days after the expiration of the Company’s, and the other Stockholders’ rights to purchase such Stock (as set forth in Sections 12.1.2, 12.1.3 and 12.1.4 above), (b) is made on terms not more materially favorable to the Proposed Transferee than as designated in the Transfer Notice, and (c) complies with Sections 4.3, 4.4 and 12.2. If the Stock described in the Transfer Notice is not so transferred, the Transferring Stockholder must give notice in accordance with this Section 12.1 prior to any other or subsequent transfer of such Stock.

12.2 Right of Co-Sale. Other than in the case of any Permitted Transfer, and subject to prior compliance with Section 12.1, each Transferring Stockholder shall, prior to consummating any transfer of Stock to a Proposed Transferee, offer each Stockholder the opportunity (the “Right of Co-Sale”) to sell their Stock pursuant to this Section 12.2.

12.2.1 With respect to any transfer by a Transferring Stockholder to a Proposed Transferee, each Stockholder shall have the right to require the Proposed Transferee to purchase from such Stockholder (in lieu of a portion of the Stock to be transferred by the Transferring Stockholder) a pro rata portion of its Stock, based on the aggregate Stockholder’s Percentage Interest held by such Stockholder, as compared with the Stockholder’s Percentage Interest held by the Transferring Stockholder. Any Stock transferred by a Stockholder pursuant to this Section 12.2 shall be paid for at the same price and upon the same terms and conditions as those in the proposed Transfer. Such terms and conditions shall not include the making of any representations and warranties, indemnities or other similar agreements other than representations and warranties with respect to title of the Stock being sold and authority to sell such Stock and indemnities directly related thereto.

12.2.2 The Right of Co-Sale may be exercised by each Stockholder by delivery of a written notice to the Transferring Stockholder (the “Co-Sale Notice”) within sixty (60) calendar days following such Stockholder’s receipt of the Transfer Notice pursuant to Section 12.1.1. The Co-Sale Notice shall state the Stockholder’s Percentage Interest that such Stockholder proposes to include in the proposed transfer and the additional Stockholder’s Percentage Interest, if any, that such Stockholder wishes to transfer to the Proposed Transferee if the other Stockholders elect not to fully exercise such right. If the Co-Sale Notice is received by the Transferring Stockholder during the sixty (60)-day period referred to above and the Proposed Transferee does not purchase all of the Stock set forth therein on the same terms and conditions as specified in the Notice of Transfer, then the Transferring Stockholder shall not be permitted to sell any Stock to the Proposed Transferee in the proposed transfer. If no Co-Sale Notice is received by the Transferring Stockholder during the sixty (60)-day period referred to above, the Transferring Stockholder shall have the right, for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after the expiration of such sixty (60)-day period, to transfer the Stock specified in the Transfer Notice substantially on the terms and conditions stated therein (and, if such Stock are not so transferred, the Transferring Stockholder must give notice in accordance with Section 12.1 prior to any other or subsequent transfer of such Stock). If a Co-Sale Notice is received by the Transferring Stockholder during the sixty (60)-day period referred to above and the Proposed Transferee has agreed to purchase all of the Stock proposed to be transferred pursuant to such Co-Sale Notice, the

29

Stockholder who delivered such Co-Sale Notice shall timely deliver to the Proposed Transferee, against payment of the total purchase price for the securities to be purchased, the appropriate instruments of transfer.

12.2.3 No Adverse Effect. The exercise or non-exercise by any Party of such Party’s rights pursuant to Section 12.2 shall not adversely affect the rights of such Party to participate in any subsequent Transfer of Stock by any Stockholder.

12.3 Permitted Transactions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of Section 12.1 and Section 12.2 shall not apply to any Permitted Transfer; provided, however, that in the case of any Permitted Transfer, (a) the transferring Party shall inform the Company of such Transfer prior to effecting such Permitted Transfer, and (b) the transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by and comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement as a condition to the effectiveness of any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time a transferee ceases to be an Affiliate of the transferring Stockholder that is wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by the ultimate parent of such transferring Stockholder, the Company, such transferring Stockholder and such transferee shall take such action as is necessary to cause there to be an immediate and unconditional reconveyance of the Stock to either (in the sole discretion of such transferring Stockholder) the ultimate parent of such transferring Stockholder or any wholly-owned Affiliate of such ultimate parent entity.

12.4 Bring-Along Right.

12.4.1 Sale of Stock. In the event that (a) any Person who is not an Affiliate of any Stockholder (a “Buyer”) makes a bona fide offer to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event, and (b) the Board including the Investor Director determines to accept such offer, then each Stockholder shall sell, transfer or exchange all of the Bring-Along Stock (as defined below) beneficially owned by such Stockholder to the Buyer on the same terms and conditions as each other Stockholder or, if applicable, shall agree to a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to the Buyer (any of the foregoing, a “Bring-Along Sale”). For purposes of this Section 12.4, the term “Bring-Along Stock” shall mean all Stock including, without limitation, all Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of any warrant or option or upon the conversion of any Convertible Securities (and, in the case of any warrant or option to acquire Convertible Securities, the Stock issuable upon the exercise of such warrant or option and conversion of such Convertible Securities).

12.4.2 Consideration for Sale of Stock. The proceeds from a Bring-Along Sale shall be distributed in accordance with the distribution waterfall set forth in ARTICLE 11 as if the transaction were a Deemed Liquidation Event. Subject to the foregoing, each Stockholder shall receive the same form and amount of consideration for each Bring-Along Stock sold in a Bring-Along Sale. In the case of any Bring-Along Stock issuable upon the exercise of a right or option to acquire Stock or Convertible Securities, the exercise price required to be paid to exercise such right or option shall be deducted from the consideration to be received in the Bring-Along Sale; provided, however, that if such exercise price is greater than the consideration to be received, the right or option shall be canceled without any payment to the holder.

12.4.3 Further Actions. Each Stockholder hereby agrees to execute such agreements, powers of attorney, voting proxies or other documents and instruments as may be necessary to consummate any proposed Bring-Along Sale. Each Stockholder shall be obligated to make customary and lawful representations and warranties with respect to any proposed Bring-Along Sale, including representations and warranties regarding such Stockholder’s authority to transfer the Bring-Along Stock subject to the Bring-Along Sale, the absence of conflicts with other agreements that would prevent such transfer and such Stockholder’s title to the Bring-Along Stock transferred. Each Stockholder will make such representations, warranties and covenants as may be reasonably required by the Buyer, and shall be obligated to indemnify the Buyer with respect to breaches of such representations, warranties and covenants. Each Stockholder further agrees to timely take such other actions as the Board may request to enforce such Stockholder’s obligation to sell its Bring-Along Stock, and shall execute all documents and take all actions necessary in connection therewith as are otherwise requested by the Board in connection with the approval and

30

consummation of the Bring-Along Sale, including voting such Stockholder’s Stock in favor of such Bring-Along Sale and waiving any appraisal or dissenters rights, and causing, to the extent lawfully permissible, the Board designated by such Stockholder, if any, to approve of or consent to the Bring-Along Sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Stockholder will not be required to comply with the provisions of this Section 12.4.3 in connection with any Bring-Along Sale unless such Stockholder’s liability is several and not joint with any other Person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any Stockholder of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all Stockholders) and is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to such Stockholder in connection with such Bring-Along Sale.

12.4.4 Payments. Each Stockholder shall pay its pro rata portion (based on the total value of the consideration received by such Stockholder compared to the aggregate consideration received by all Parties in the transaction) of the costs of any Bring-Along Sale to the extent that such costs are incurred for the benefit of all Stockholders and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the Buyer.

12.5 Pre-Emptive Rights.

12.5.1 Generally. Each Stockholder shall be entitled to receive notice of, and participate in, at the same price and on the same terms, any sales by the Company of newly issued Stock for value from and after the Effective Date so that each such holder may maintain its then current Stockholder’s Percentage Interest in the Company; provided, however, that the issuance of Stock upon the exercise of options granted under any Equity Incentive Plan or arrangement adopted by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be “sales” within the meaning of this Section 12.5.

12.5.2 Notice of Sales. If the Company proposes to sell newly issued Stock for value from and after the Effective Date, the Company must first provide written notice of such proposed sale (the “Stock Sale Notice”) to each Stockholder. The Stock Sale Notice shall state the Stock proposed to be sold, the Stockholder’s Percentage Interest proposed to be sold, the purchase price thereof and any other material terms or conditions of the offering. Each recipient of Stock Sale Notice shall be entitled to elect to purchase up to Stockholder’s Percentage Interest proposed to be sold as shall be required to maintain such Stockholder’s Percentage Interest in the Company plus such recipient’s pro rata share of any offered securities subject to the pre-emptive rights granted under this Section 12.5 which are not purchased by other Stockholders by providing written notice to the Company within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of the Stock Sale Notice (the “Stock Sale Election Period”).

12.5.3 Consummation of Sales. The Company must consummate the sale of the Stock to those recipients of the Stock Sale Notice who elect to purchase the Stock within twenty (20) Business Days after the expiration of the Stock Sale Election Period unless the Company and the recipient mutually agree to a different schedule for closing. After the Company has sold all of the Stock requested by the recipients of the Stock Sale Notice, the Company shall be entitled to sell any Stock referenced in the Stock Sale Notice not otherwise purchased by the recipients of the Stock Sale Notice; provided, however, that if the Company does not consummate the sale of all such remaining Stock within thirty (30) Business Days after the expiration of the Stock Sale Election Period, the Company must first again comply with the requirements of this Section 13.6 before selling any Stock which is unsold (or for which the Company has not received an irrevocable written purchase commitment) at the end of such thirty (30)-day period.

12.6 Call Option.

12.6.1 At any time after the second anniversary of the date that Investor Stockholder has exercised its option to purchase an additional twenty-one percent (21%) of the equity of the Company and therefore holds a Stockholder Percentage Interest of no less than seventy percent (70%), then the Investor Stockholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deliver to the other Stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders”) a written notice to purchase the Selling Stockholders’ entire Stock for a purchase price equal to the Call FMV (as determined in accordance with Section 12.7) multiplied by each Selling Stockholders’ Percentage Interest (the “Call Price”).

31

12.6.2 Each of the Selling Stockholders shall, at the closing of such sale (“Call Closing”), represent and warrant to the Investor Stockholder (the “Purchasing Stockholder”) that (i) each Selling Stockholder has full right, title and interest in and to such Stock, (ii) each Selling Stockholder has all necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to sell such Stock as contemplated by this Section 12.6, and (iii) such Stock is free and clear of any Encumbrance other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement.

12.6.3 Subject to Section 12.6.4, the Call Closing shall take place no later than sixty (60) Business Days following receipt by the Selling Stockholder or the Investor Stockholder of the notice under Section 12.6.1 on a date specified by the Purchasing Stockholder (the “Call Closing Date”); provided that the Purchasing Stockholder shall give the Selling Stockholders at least ten (10) Business Days’ written notice of the Call Closing Date.

12.6.4 The Purchasing Stockholder shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, have the right to select one of the following alternatives to pay the Call Price: (a) one hundred percent (100%) in cash or other same day funds, or (b) (i) wire transfer of immediately available funds of at least 60% of the Call Purchase Price to an account designated in writing by the Selling Stockholder, and (ii) causing Grown Rogue International, Inc. to issue to the Selling Stockholder shares of its common stock with a value equal to the portion of the Call Purchase Price not paid in cash pursuant to subsection (b)(i) (using for this purpose a per share price of the 20-day VWAP of Grown Rogue International, Inc. for the twenty day period prior to the Call Closing; provided that (x) if the Selling Stockholder is a Non-Contributing Stockholder, the Call Purchase Price shall be decreased by the amount of any unpaid Additional Stock Payments or Default Loan, including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, owed by the Selling Stockholder; and (y) if the Selling Stockholder has funded any Default Loan that remains outstanding, it shall be paid in full by the Purchasing Stockholder, including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, at the Call Closing. Subject to regulatory limitation including, without limitation, the rules and regulations of any applicable securities exchange, the Selling Stockholder shall have the unbridled right to immediately sell all or any portion of the Grown Rogue International, Inc. without restriction upon the Selling Stockholders receipt of such stock.

12.6.5 At the Closing, the Selling Stockholder shall deliver to the Purchasing Stockholder (i) a certificate or certificates (if any) representing the Stock to be sold, accompanied by an assignment of the certificate to the Purchasing Stockholder or its assignee; (ii) the resignation of each of the Directors the Selling Stockholder appointed to the Board; and (iii) a certificate meeting the requirements of IRS Notice 2018-29 and Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b) (modified to take into account Code Section 1446(f)) that Selling Stockholder is not a foreign person within the meaning of Code Section 1446(f) or Code Section 1445.

12.6.6 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Stockholder agrees that, to preserve the character of the Company and consummate the purchase of the Selling Stockholder’s entire Stock, the Purchasing Stockholder may assign its purchase right or obligation under this Section 12.6 in whole or in part to any Affiliate who, upon the Call Closing, shall become a Stockholder, and that such purchase right or obligation shall be assignable by the Purchasing Stockholder without the consent of the Selling Stockholder.

12.6.7 Without limitation of the other provisions of this Section 12.6, each Stockholder agrees to cooperate and take, and to cause its Affiliates to cooperate and take, all actions and execute all documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to reflect the purchase of the Selling Stockholder’s Stock by the Purchasing Stockholder pursuant to this Section 12.6.

12.6.8 At any time after the second anniversary of the date that Investor Stockholder has exercised its option to purchase an additional twenty-one percent (21%) of the Company and therefore holds

32

a Stockholder Percentage Interest of no less than seventy percent (70%), then the Founding Stockholders (the "Offeror") may offer to sell all of the Stock owned by Founding Stockholders to the Investor Stockholder (the “Offeree”). The Offeror shall do so by making a written offer to sell all of the Offeror’s Stock ("Offer to Sell") at the price and any other terms and conditions contained in the Offer to Sell. Upon the receipt by the Offeree of the Offer to sell, the Offeree can either: (i) accept the Offer to Sell, (ii) reject the Offer to Sell, or (iii) within sixty (60) days make a written offer itself to sell all of the Offeree’s Stock ("Counteroffer to Sell") at the price per share as stated in the Offer to Sell and upon the terms contained in the Offer to Sell. If the Offeree shall make a Counteroffer to Sell, the Offeror shall buy Offeree’s Stock upon the terms contained in the Counteroffer to Sell. However, in order to prevent the Investor Stockholder from taking advantage of the Founding Stockholder’s then financial condition, the Investor Stockholder agrees that the Founding Stockholder’s payment of the purchase price in the Counteroffer to Sell shall be paid as follows:

(i) seventy-five percent (75%) of the Purchase Price under the Counteroffer to Sell shall be paid to the Investor Stockholder in cash or other same day funds by the Founding Stockholders at the closing of the Counteroffer to Sell; and

(ii) the balance of twenty-five percent (25%) of the Purchase Price shall be in the form of a two (2) year promissory note with the payment of monthly interest at 12.5% and a single balloon payment of the principal and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The promissory note shall be secured by a stock pledge agreement for all of the Offeror Stock, including the Stock purchased by the Offeror, provided, however, such note shall be subordinated to any outstanding third-party financing. Any such note or notes shall provide for acceleration of all balances upon default. This note can be paid in full at any time without discount or premium. In the event of a sale of assets of the Company outside the ordinary course of the Company’s business, then the Offeror shall make a principal payment on the note in an amount equal to the lower of: (i) the Offeree’s Percentage Interest in the issued and outstanding Stock prior to sale pursuant to this Section multiplied by the net proceeds received on such sale, or (ii) the remaining balance of the note. The terms herein established may be modified if mutually agreeable by and between the Offeree and Offeror.

A failure to accept the Offer to Sell within the time period described above shall be deemed to be a rejection of the Offer to Sell. If a Stockholder shall fail to perform his/her obligations under this Section, then the aggrieved Party may seek specific performance in any court of competent jurisdiction, and the successful Party in such action shall be entitled to an award of costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

12.7 Call FMV. The Stockholders may unanimously agree to the Call FMV, however, if the Stockholders cannot unanimously agree to the Call FMV, then the Call FMV shall be determined by the following process:

12.7.1 No later than ten (10) days after the delivery of a notice under Section 12.6.1, the Stockholders shall each engage one independent investment banking, accounting or valuation firm with experience in the valuation of businesses similar to the business of the Company (each, a “Valuation Firm”) for purposes of determining Call FMV. All fees and expenses of each such Valuation Firm shall be the responsibility of the Stockholder that engaged such Valuation Firm. Each such Valuation Firm shall determine Call FMV in good faith and deliver its calculation of Call FMV not later than the first Business Day that is at least thirty (30) days after the date of delivery of such Call FMV request; provided, that both Valuation Firms shall agree on a date on which to both deliver their calculations and Call FMV shall be determined as of such date (the “FMV Determination Date”). If the higher of the two calculations of Call FMV submitted by the two Valuation Firms is not more than 110% of the lower calculation, then Call FMV shall be the average of the Call FMV calculations of the two Valuation Firms.

12.7.2 If the higher of the two calculations of Call FMV is more than 110% of the lower calculation, then the two Valuation Firms shall jointly select a third Valuation Firm who is independent of,

33

and not affiliated with, the first two Valuation Firms, and who is not affiliated with, and who has not provided any significant services within the two (2) years preceding the date of the FMV determination request to, any Stockholder or its Affiliates (an “Independent Valuation Firm”), to determine Call FMV. If the two Valuation Firms are unable to agree upon a third Valuation Firm by the tenth (10th) day immediately following the date on which they have both delivered a calculation of Call FMV pursuant to Section 12.7.1 (the “Initial Calculation Date”), the third Valuation Firm shall be selected as follows: Each of the first two Valuation Firms will suggest two (2) potential third Valuation Firms, each of whom shall be an Independent Valuation Firm, for a total of four (4). Each of the first two Valuation Firms shall be entitled to veto one (1) of the other Valuation Firm’s two (2) suggested Valuation Firms. The third Valuation Firm will then be chosen from the remaining two (2) suggested names by a fair and random process. The third Valuation Firm shall be selected no later than fifteen (15) days after the Initial Calculation Date and engaged pursuant to a customary engagement letter no later than twenty (20) days after the Initial Calculation Date. All fees and expenses of the third Valuation Firm shall be shared equally by the Stockholders. The final Call FMV shall be the average of the two of the three Call FMV calculations delivered pursuant to Section 12.7.1 and Section 12.7.2 that are closest in amount.

12.7.3 Any determination of Call FMV pursuant to Section 12.7.1 or Section 12.7.2 shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Stockholders.

12.7.4 To enable the Valuation Firms to conduct the valuations, the Stockholders and the Company shall furnish to the Valuation Firms such information as they may reasonably request regarding the Company, and its assets, properties, financial condition, earnings and prospects.

12.8 Conversion to Corporation. Upon the approval of the including the Investor Director and prior to the closing under the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be converted (by merger, consolidation, share exchange, transfer of assets or equity or otherwise, as determined by the Board) into a newly formed corporation so as to convert the Company to a corporation, which shall be a Subchapter C corporation for income tax purposes. Such corporation shall have a certificate of incorporation and bylaws which the Board determines are customary for corporations comparable to the Company at the time preserving to the greatest extent possible (a) the relative voting rights, liquidation rights, and other rights, preferences and privileges that exist with respect to the Stock and (b) the liability, exculpation and indemnification provisions set forth in ARTICLE 9 with respect to Covered Persons. The outstanding equity capitalization of the corporation upon consummation of such conversion shall, to the fullest extent possible, be identical to that of the Company immediately prior to such conversion. Upon any conversion of the Company to a corporation pursuant to this Section 12.8, this Agreement shall terminate except as provided in this Section 12.6 and with respect to ARTICLE 9 and any other section hereof that by its terms survives the termination of this Agreement. The Stockholders hereby consent to the conversion of the Company to corporation pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.6 and agree to exchange their Stock for stock in the corporation formed in connection with such corporation as provided herein and to take any actions and execute any documents reasonably requested by the Board in connection with any such conversion.

ARTICLE 13

GARDEN STATE GOLD 609 LLC (“Initial Stockholder”) |  |  | 15.00 | %
Total |  |  | 100.00 | %

All Stock issued and outstanding is Voting Stock. There are no shares of Non-Voting Stock issued and outstanding.

Section 2.2(b)

Capitalization of the Company immediately following the Closing

Stockholder |  | Shares issued and outstanding |
CMB INVESTCO 609 LLC (“Initial Stockholder”) of Class B Voting Stock |  |  | 44,217 |
GARDEN STATE GOLD 609 LLC (“Initial Stockholder”) of Class B Voting Stock |  |  | 6,783 |
Grown Rogue Unlimited, LLC (“Investor Stockholder”) of the Class A Voting Stock |  |  | 49,000 |
Total |  |  | 100,000 |

The stock that will be issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing, which shall only occur after CRC approval occurs will be a combination of Class A Voting Stock and Class B Voting Stock.

In connection with that certain Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2023, the Company has issued to Iron Flag, LLC a Warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 1,474,000 shares of the Company’s Class B Voting Stock. The Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrant shall only dilute the Class B Stockholders and the Investor Stockholder shall receive warrants for Class A Common Stock which will allow the Investor Stockholder to receive seven (7) shares of the Company’s Class A Stock for every three (3) shares of Class B Stock issued by the Company to Iron Flag, LLC.

In addition to the fees paid to Moriconi Flowers LTD’s for services rendered to the Company as described in Section 2.10(b), Moriconi Flowers LTD also shall receive a beneficial interest (“Beneficial Interest”) in the Company as a third-party contractor. The Beneficial Interest constitutes six percent (6%) of the value attributed to the Stock of the Initial Stockholders (and their Affiliates) for all purposes including distributions and in connection with the sale of the Company or its assets, or any combination thereof, not to exceed six percent (6%) of the total amount paid to the Initial Stockholders (and their Affiliates). In other words, Moriconi Flowers LTD has a 1.8% Beneficial Interest in the Company because the 6% relates solely to the 30% held by the Initial Stockholders. For the avoidance of doubt, this Beneficial Interest DOES NOT AFFECT Investor Stockholder. For example, if the Initial Stockholders (and their Affiliates) are intended to receive distributions of $100,000 from the Company, then Moriconi Flowers LTD will receive $6,000, and the Initial Stockholders will receive $94,000.
