Gage Announces Amendment to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement and Extension of Proxy Cut-Off for Voting at Special Meeting

Amendment is expected to facilitate and potentially expedite the timeframe in which the conditions for the closing of the acquisition of Gage may be completed

Deadlines to accept proxies and revocations extended to 8:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the date of the special meeting, November 11, 2021

Gage encourages all shareholders to submit their votes in advance of the extended proxy and revocation cut-off; over 99% of the votes submitted by shareholders and minority shareholders have been voted FOR the arrangement with TerrAscend

Gage Growth Corp. ( " Gage " or the " Company ") (CSE: GAGE) (OTCQX: GAEGF), a leading high-quality premium cannabis brand and operator in Michigan today announced that, as part of the previously announced acquisition of Gage by TerrAscend Corp. (" TerrAscend "), TerrAscend's wholly-owned subsidiary (the " TerrAscend Subsidiary ") entered into an amendment (the " MIPA Amendment ") to the membership interest purchase agreement (the " MIPA ") with the owners of the licenses that Gage supports in the State of Michigan (the " Licensed Operators ").

Gage Growth Corp. (CNW Group/Gage Cannabis Co.)

As announced on September 1, 2021 , Gage entered into an arrangement agreement, as amended (the " Arrangement Agreement "), in respect of the proposed acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding subordinate voting shares of Gage by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the " Transaction "). As set out in Gage's management information circular dated October 12, 2021 (the " Gage Circular "), concurrent with TerrAscend and Gage entering into the Arrangement Agreement, the TerrAscend Subsidiary entered into the MIPA with the Licensed Operators and the direct or indirect owner of the Licensed Operators which hold cannabis licenses and permits in connection with the Gage business (the " Seller ").

The 'First Closing' under the MIPA is a condition precedent for the completion of the Transaction. The purpose of entering into the MIPA Amendment is to potentially expedite achieving the 'First Closing' and, in turn, the completion of the Transaction, as described in more detail below. No other amendments are being made to the MIPA, the plan of arrangement or the Arrangement Agreement at this time. A copy of the MIPA Amendment will be filed under Gage's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com .

The MIPA 'First Closing'

As set out in the Gage Circular, prior to entering into the MIPA Amendment, the 'First Closing' was conditional upon the transfer of cannabis licenses and permits representing 70% of Gage's revenue to Thrive Enterprises, LLC (among other conditions that must be satisfied or waived and described in more detail in the Gage Circular). The MIPA Amendment allows for the 70% revenue condition to now be achieved through AEY Holdings, LLC, in addition to Thrive Enterprises, LLC. Both entities are Licensed Operators owned directly or indirectly by the Seller which hold cannabis licenses and permits in connection with the Gage business.

Completion of the Transaction remains subject to court approval and the requisite approval of Gage's and TerrAscend's shareholders. If the requisite approvals are obtained, the Transaction will be completed as soon as possible after satisfaction or waiver of all remaining conditions precedents, including required regulatory and licensing approvals.

Gage Shareholder Meeting and Extension of Deadline to Submit Proxies and Revocations

Gage's special meeting of shareholders will continue to be held virtually at https://web.lumiagm.com/252578815 on Thursday, November 11, 2021 , at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) (the " Gage Meeting ").

In order to permit Gage shareholders the maximum opportunity to have their vote represented at the Gage Meeting, the deadline for the submission of proxies and the deadline for the revocation of a previously submitted proxy will be extended to 8:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on Thursday , November 11, 2021. Shareholders are referred to the Gage Circular for detailed instructions on how to vote as a registered or beneficial shareholder.

Over 99% of the votes submitted to date by the shareholders of Gage (including minority shareholders) have been voted FOR the resolution approving the Transaction, as further set out in the Gage Circular. Gage continues to encourage all shareholders to submit their votes in advance of the extended proxy cut-off.

If you have any questions or require assistance with voting your proxy, please contact Gage at 1-(833)-455-4243 or by email at IR@gageusa.com .
