ITEM 9. OTHER EVENTS

 

On September 13, 2019, Hightimes Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Lazer & Lazer Corporation, a company existing under the laws of Ontario (the “Advisor”), entered into a strategic business services agreement (the “Services Agreement”), pursuant to which the Advisor is to provide the Company with general strategic advisory services, including assisting the Company in gaining visibility in the financial community, providing financial, mergers and acquisitions and general advisory services. A copy of the Services Agreement is attached as Exhibit 6.1 to this Form 1-U.

 

On October 4, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with El Capital Inc., a British Virgin Island Company and an affiliate of the Advisor (“El Capital”).

The Warrants are exercisable only after 185 days following the issuance date and may be exercised at any time thereafter until the expiration of its three-year term. The shares of common stock and Warrants were issued separately.
