Forward Looking Statements. Certain Information included in this presentation by Sugarbud constitutes forward-looking information under applicable securities legislation. Forward-looking information typically contains statements with words such as “will”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “plan”, “intend”, “estimate”, “propose” or similar words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding an outlook. Forward- looking information in this presentation includes, but is not limited to, statements relating to: the Company's business plan, including cannabis cultivation in the Company’s Stavely facility; construction of additional flower rooms and the scale thereof; cost of construction and sources and availability of funds; estimates regarding cannabis crop capacity, yield and frequency in respect of the initial phase of the facility and subsequent phases; cultivation practices, equipment and technologies, including vertical growing and hydroponics; management team and the performance thereof; supply agreements and industry partnerships, including with Segra, Fluence and PIPP; future expanded product

  • fferings, including pre-rolls, vape cartridges and inhaled extracts; finished goods packaging; the size of the cannabis market Alberta,

Saskatchewan and across Canada; the number of LPs in Canada; the quality of cannabis grown; and Sugarbud’s cannabis strains and genetics. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by Sugarbud, including expectations and assumptions concerning: the timing of the receipt of the required regulatory approvals, including additional licenses from Health Canada; the future operations of, and transactions completed by, the Company, including the availability of sufficient capital; the availability of and access to qualified personnel; the expected growth in the cannabis market; the medical benefits, viability, safety, efficacy, dosing and social acceptance of cannabis; the securities markets and the general economy; applicable laws not changing in a manner that is unfavorable to Sugarbud; and the application of regulatory and licensing requirements. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all factors and assumptions which have been used. Although Sugarbud believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because Sugarbud can give no assurance that they will prove to be

  • correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and
  • uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but

are not limited to, risks associated with the cannabis industry in general; actions and initiatives of federal and provincial governments and changes to government policies and the execution and impact of these actions, initiatives and policies; the size of the medical-use and adult- use cannabis market; failure of counter-parties to perform contractual obligations; failure to maintain consumer brand recognition and loyalty

  • f customers; reliance on relationships with wholesalers and retailers for distribution of products and failure to maintain strategic business

relationships; intense competition from other industry participants, including from illicit sources; currently contemplated expansion and development plans may cease or otherwise change; production of cannabis may be lower than expected, Sugarbud may not obtain the required approvals from Health Canada; demand for Sugarbud's products may be lower than anticipated; the ability to implement corporate strategies; the state of domestic capital markets; the ability to obtain financing; changes in general market conditions; industry conditions and events; the size of the medical marijuana market and the recreational marijuana market; government regulations, including future legislative and regulatory developments involving medical and recreational marijuana; construction delays; risks inherent in the agricultural business, such as insects, plant diseases and similar agricultural risks which can have a significant impact on the size and quality of the harvest of cannabis crops; and other factors more fully described from time to time in the reports and filings made by the Company with securities regulatory authorities. In addition, the Company cautions that current global uncertainty with respect to the spread of the COVID- 19 virus and its effect on the broader global economy may have a significant negative effect on the Company. While the precise impact of the COVID-19 virus on the Company remain unknown, rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus may have a material adverse effect on global economic activity, and can result in volatility and disruption to global supply chains, operations, mobility of people and the financial markets, which could affect interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk, inflation, business, financial conditions, results of operations and other factors relevant to the Company.

Experience by Design

High quality starting material are the foundation of exceptional dried cannabis and oil derivative products Partnering with industry leaders like Segra, Fluence and PIPP to improve product quality and consistency to support customer satisfaction, strategic pricing and overall value to the consumer Reducing risk by integrating micro-propagation practices and regenerative plant tissue culture into standard propagation workflows Methodically curating our plants through the entire growing cycle Prior to harvest we finish our flowering cycle with a flush of pure water, and no nutrients. This process cleanses and purifies the cannabis for a clean smooth burn during consumption We carefully hang dry and cure our plants to maximize potency and deliver a smooth terpene rich finish
