Transaction:

Buyer shall enter into a Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement, or substantially similar document, with Target pursuant to which Buyer will acquire 100% of the common stock of Target from the shareholders of Target (the “Target Shareholders”), on the terms and subject to the conditions included herein and as further detailed in the Definitive Documents (as defined below) (the “Transaction”). For the avoidance of doubt, subsequent to the closing of the Transaction, the Target and its Businesses shall be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blüm Acquisition Co., and Blüm Acquisition Co. shall be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blüm. The Transaction will be structured in as tax-efficient of a manner as possible; provided that the Parties reserve the right to modify the structuring of the Transaction if advised to do so by their respective accountants or their respective tax, regulatory or legal advisors; provided further, however, that such structuring will not be modified in a manner that is materially and disproportionately disadvantageous from a tax standpoint for the Target without such Target’s prior written consent.

Transaction Consideration:

At closing, Target Shareholders shall receive an aggregate of $1,671,451 in consideration for the Target as follows:

1.         Buyer shall execute a secured promissory note to the Target Shareholders in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $1,000,071 to be paid in monthly installments of approximately $23,811 per month over 42 months pursuant to the attached EXHIBIT A Amortization Schedule (the “Note”). The Note may be converted into common stock of Buyer at the Transaction valuation, on terms to be agreed-upon. For the avoidance of doubt, if the holder of a Note converted it into common stock of Buyer, they shall convert on a pro-rata basis into approximately 458,832 shares of Buyer common stock or approximately 3.76% of Buyer; and

2.         945,605 shares of common stock of Buyer representing approximately 8.0535% of the common stock of Buyer (the “Shares”). The Target Shareholders shall have an option to exchange the shares for promissory notes as described below. Buyer shall hold back 196,507 shares to cover indemnification claims for a period of up to 12 months.

Target Shareholders Option to Exchange Shares for Promissory Note:

On the date which is 24 months after the Closing Date, the Target Shareholders shall have the option, but not the obligation, for a period of ninety (90) days thereafter, to exchange with Buyer the shares received as part of the purchase price for a promissory note. The promissory note will have a term of five years, with monthly payments not exceeding 50% of the monthly cash flow generated from Cookies Sacramento. The total adjusted purchase price, reflecting the shift from a mixed cash-stock deal to promissory note structure, would go from approximately $5 million to approximately $3.6 million. For the avoidance of doubt, the current purchase value of $5 million is comprised of a $1,000,071 promissory note and $4,000,286 in Buyer common stock. This arrangement is subject to US GAAP considerations, including the classification of financial instruments (this will likely have to be accounted for as debt as opposed to equity), measurement and recognition at fair value on a quarterly basis, and treatment as contingent consideration.
