First Tranche of Non-Brokered Private Placement
The Company is pleased to announce that Richard Gillis, President and Chief Operating Officer of Tinley's USA, and member of Tinley's Office of the CEO, has purchased 2,080,666 units ("Units") of the Company under the first tranche of a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") at a price of C$0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of approximately C$312,000. Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of Tinley's ("Common Shares") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at a price of C$0.20 for a period of 24 months following the date of issuance.

The Company intends to complete additional tranches of the Private Placement from time to time in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements; however, there can be no assurance that any additional tranches will be completed.
"I am investing once again in Tinley's to tap into what I believe is an unrealized opportunity within the cannabis industry", said Richard Gillis. "The popularity of THC-infused beverages is accelerating, and I believe that Tinley's, through its Long Beach Facility, with a newly activated distribution licence and growing menu of production methods and packaging capabilities, will continue to drive value by serving a growing roster of high-quality and high-volume client brands."
