Seller has the full power and authority necessary to own, lease, operate and use the Purchased Assets.

2.2. Noncontravention. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.2, with respect to Seller and the Purchased Assets and the Business, the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions will not: (a) violate any Law applicable to Seller, the Purchased Assets or the Business require any action by (including any authorization, filing, declaration, consent or approval), notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority in connection with the valid and lawful consummation of the Contemplated Transactions; (b) result in the modification, acceleration, termination, breach or violation of, or default under, any contractual obligation or Permit or other arrangement of any of Seller or the Purchased Assets; (c) require any action by (including any authorization, filing, declaration, consent or approval) or in respect of (including notice

2.5. Purchased Assets; Real Property.

2.5.1. Seller has sole and exclusive, good and marketable title to, or, in the case of property held under a lease or other contractual obligation, a sole and exclusive, enforceable leasehold interest in, or right to use, all of the properties, rights and assets, whether real or personal property and whether tangible or intangible, that are included in the Purchased Assets. The Purchased Assets comprise all of the assets, properties and rights used in or necessary to the conduct of the Business and are adequate and sufficient to conduct the Business as currently conducted. The Purchased Assets are in good operating condition and repair, normal wear and tear excepted, are suitable for the uses intended therefor, and to Seller’s Knowledge free from any latent defects, to allow Buyer, subject to obtaining the Opening Variance, to begin cultivating cannabis following the Closing at standards similar to Seller’s operation of the Business during the three months prior to the date of this Agreement, and such Purchased Assets have been maintained in accordance with normal industry practice in all material respects. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.5.1, none of the Purchased Assets are subject to any Encumbrance other than any Permitted Encumbrance, provided that the real property that comprises the Lakeland Facility Lease is subject to all zoning laws, rights of way, easements and encumbrances of record, which are not violated and which do not adversely affect the Business. Schedule 2.5.1 sets forth a true, correct and complete list of Debt, including the dollar amounts and the parties any Debt is owed to.

2.5.2. Seller does not own, nor has Seller ever owned, any real property. Schedule 2.5.2 sets forth a true, correct and complete list of each leasehold interest in real property leased, subleased, or licensed by, or for which a right to use or occupy has been granted to, Seller used in the Business (the “Real Property”). With respect to Real Property, the only lease, sublease, license or other contractual obligation under which such Real Property is occupied or used is the Lakeland Facility Lease. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.5.2, there are no subleases, licenses, concessions, occupancy agreements or other contractual obligations granting to any Person (other than Seller) the right of use or occupancy of the Real Property and there is no Person (other than Seller) in possession of the Real Property. The Real Property and its current use, occupancy and operation by Seller does not violate or conflict with any applicable Encumbrances thereto.

To Seller’s Knowledge, the Business has been operated in such a manner, and the Real Property is in sufficient good condition, such that neither the operation of the Business nor the condition of the Real Property will adversely impact Seller’s ability to obtain the Cessation Variance of the Lakeland Facility Lease or Buyer’s ability to obtain the Opening Variance.

2.5.3. With respect to the Lakeland Facility Lease, (i) Seller is not in default thereunder, and no event has occurred which with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute a breach or default thereunder by Seller, and to Seller’s Knowledge, any other party thereto, (ii) Seller enjoys quiet and undisturbed possession of the Real Property and the Lakeland Facility subject to the terms and conditions of the Lakeland Facility Lease, and Seller is not currently in dispute with any other party thereto, (iii) no security deposit or portion thereof deposited with respect to the Lakeland Facility Lease has been applied in respect of a breach or default thereunder which has not been redeposited in full, (iv) Seller does not owe, nor will owe in the future, any brokerage commissions or finder’s fees with respect to the Lakeland Facility Lease, (v) Seller has not subleased, licensed or otherwise granted any other Person the right to use or occupy the Real Property or the Lakeland Facility or any portion thereof and there are no Persons other than Seller in possession of the Real Property or the Lakeland Facility, and (vi) except as set forth in Schedule 2.5.3, Seller has not collaterally assigned or granted any security interest in, or taking any action that has created an Encumbrance with respect to, the Lakeland Facility Lease or any interest therein.

2.5.4. None of the utility companies serving the Lakeland Facility Lease or the Real Property has, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened Seller with any reduction in service. To Seller’s Knowledge, the utilities provided by such utility companies to the Lakeland Facility Lease and the Real Property either enter the Real Property through adjoining public streets or, if they pass through adjoining private land, do so in accordance with valid, permanent public or private easements which, following the Closing, will inure to the benefit of Buyer. All of said utilities are installed and operating and all installation and connection charges have been paid in full. The continued maintenance of the Real Property, as currently maintained and operated, is not dependent on facilities at other property. To Seller’s Knowledge, there are no challenges or appeals pending regarding the amount of real estate Taxes on, or the assessed valuation of, the Real Property or otherwise relating to the Lakeland Facility Lease, and, to Seller’s Knowledge, no special arrangements or agreements exist with any Governmental Authority thereto. There is no Tax assessment (other than the normal, annual general real estate Tax assessment) pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened with respect to any portion of the Real Property or otherwise relating to the Lakeland Facility Lease. There are neither actual or pending, nor, to Seller’s Knowledge, any threatened or contemplated, condemnation or eminent domain proceedings that affect any Real Property or the Lakeland Facility Lease and Seller has not received any written notice from any Governmental Authority of the intention of any Governmental Authority to take or use all or any part thereof.

2.5.5. (i) Seller enjoys peaceful and quiet possession of the Lakeland Facility Lease and the Real Property; (ii) all facilities on the Real Property and used in the Lakeland Facility Lease have received all approvals of Governmental Authorities (including licenses and Permits, all of which have been fully paid for and are in full force and effect) required in connection with the operation thereof and have been operating and maintained in accordance with applicable Laws, and Seller has not received from any Governmental Authority written notice of a violation of any law related to the Real Property that remains unresolved; and (iii) all improvements making up such Real Property and the Lakeland Facility Lease, including the mechanical systems, HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical, security, utility and sprinkler systems and the rest of the facilities, are in reasonable, working condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, are reasonably sufficient for the operation of such Real Property and the Lakeland Facility Lease for their current use, and to Seller’s Knowledge, there are no material structural or other physical defects or deficiencies in the condition of such improvements and, to Seller’s Knowledge, there are no facts or conditions that would, individually or in the aggregate, interfere in any material respect with the use or occupancy of such improvements or any portion thereof in the operation of the Business as currently conducted on the Real Property or with respect to the Lakeland Facility Lease.

Seller has timely submitted all material renewal applications, reports, forms, registrations, and documents required to be filed, and has paid all fees and assessments, in connection with such Permits. Seller has not received from any Governmental Authority any notice alleging a failure to hold any such Permits. No proceeding is pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened to revoke, suspend, not renew or limit any Permit, and to Seller’s Knowledge, there is no set of facts presently existing that would be reasonably likely to cause any such Permit to not be renewable upon its expiration.

No information provided to or obtained by Buyer shall affect any representation or warranty in this Agreement.

4.5. Notice of Developments. If Seller becomes aware prior to Closing of any event, fact or condition or nonoccurrence of any event, fact or condition that would reasonably constitute a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller or would reasonably constitute a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller if such representation or warranty were made on the date of the occurrence or discovery of such event, fact or condition or on the Closing Date, then Seller will promptly provide Buyer with a written description of such fact or condition. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, Seller shall have the continuing obligation to promptly supplement the information contained in the schedules to this Agreement with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered, which, if in existence on the date hereof and known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the schedules to this Agreement. Neither the supplementation of the schedules to this Agreement pursuant to the obligation in this Section 4.5 nor any disclosure after the date hereof of the untruth of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement shall operate as a cure of the failure to disclose the information, or a cure of the breach of any representation or warranty made herein; and determination of any liability for breach of representations or warranties either at signing or at Closing shall be made without reference to any supplements and with reference only to the schedules to this Agreement as they stand on the date of this Agreement.

The parties acknowledge that Seller is engaged in ongoing discussions related to the sale of its Florida cannabis license and related retail operations which are not included within the Purchased Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, such discussions (and any sale of its Florida cannabis license and related retail operations) shall not be deemed Acquisition Proposals.

5. COVENANTS.

5.1. Restrictive Covenants.

5.1.1. Seller Parent hereby agrees that from and after the date hereof and continuing for three (3) years from the date hereof (the “Restricted Period”), Seller Parent will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, employ, engage, recruit or solicit for employment or engagement, or otherwise interfere with Buyer’s or any of its Affiliate’s employment or engagement of, any Person who is or has agreed to be an employee of, consultant to or salesperson of, the Business or otherwise seek to influence of alter any such Peron’s relationship with Buyer or its Affiliates.

5.1.3. From and after the date hereof, Seller Parent will, and will cause its Affiliates to, keep secret and retain in strictest confidence, and will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, without the prior written consent of Buyer, furnish, make available or disclose to any third party or use for the benefit of such Person or any third party, any Confidential Information, except, with respect to the period prior to the Closing, in the Ordinary Course. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means any information relating to (a) this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the Contemplated Transactions or (b) the Purchased Assets, the Business or the business or affairs of Buyer, including information relating to projections, plans, customer identities, suppliers, strategies, profit margins or other proprietary information; provided, however, that Confidential Information will not include any information which is in the public domain or becomes generally known in the public domain through no wrongful act on the part of Seller Parent (or Affiliate thereof).

5.1.4. Seller Parent recognizes that the territorial, time and scope limitations set forth in this Section 5.1 are reasonable and properly required for the protection of Buyer’s legitimate interest in the goodwill of the Business and the Purchased Assets. In the event that any territorial, time or scope limitation set forth in this Section 5.1 is deemed to be unreasonable by a court of competent jurisdiction, Buyer and Seller Parent agree to the reduction of any or all of said territorial, time or scope limitations to such an area, period or scope as said court will deem reasonable under the circumstances. In the event of any actual or threatened breach by Seller Parent (or Affiliate thereof) of any of the provisions contained in this Section 5.1, Buyer will be entitled to such injunctive and other equitable relief as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by a court of competent jurisdiction. Seller Parent acknowledges that Buyer would not enter into this Agreement absent this Section 5.1.

5.2. Publicity. No public announcement or disclosure will be made by or on behalf of either party to this Agreement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior written approval of Buyer and Seller (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that either party may make any public disclosure required by applicable securities Law or exchange requirements (in which case the disclosing party will use its reasonable best efforts to advise the other party prior to making the disclosure). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent or participation of Seller, after the Closing, Buyer shall be permitted to make communications with employees, customers, suppliers and engage in capital raising efforts in which the Contemplated Transactions are disclosed; provided, that such public announcements, press releases and communications shall not disclose any material economic terms of this Agreement without the consent of Seller. The Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated April 26, 2024 (the “NDA”), by and between Seller and Buyer, will remain in full force and effect following the Closing.

5.3. Non-Assignment of Certain Contracts. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, assign to Buyer any contract, lease, permit or other instrument which is a Purchased Asset but which restricts or prohibits the transfer or assignment thereof or which provides that it may not be transferred or assigned without the consent of another Person and for which the appropriate consent to the transfer and assignment thereof is not obtained, but in any such event, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain such assignments and otherwise cooperate with Buyer in any reasonable arrangement designed to provide the benefits thereof to Buyer. If such consent, approval, waiver, authorization, notice or novation is not obtained, then, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, such nonassignable Purchased Asset shall be held, as of and from the Closing, by Seller or its Affiliate for the exclusive benefit of Buyer and its Affiliates, and all the economic (taking into account all burdens to Seller and its Affiliates), operational and other benefits of such nonassignable Purchased Asset, to the extent permitted, shall be held and treated as if such consent, approval, waiver, authorization, notice or novation, as the case may be, had been obtained. Without limitation of and subject to the foregoing, at Buyer’s request, Sellers shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to: (i) cooperate, in all reasonable respects, in any lawful and commercially reasonable arrangement proposed by Buyer under which Buyer and its

Affiliates would obtain the economic, operational and other benefits thereunder and assume any related economic burden (including the amount of any related Tax costs imposed on Buyer or any of its Affiliates) thereunder; (ii) enforce for the benefit of Buyer and its Affiliates and as directed by Buyer, Seller’s or its Affiliate’s rights under such nonassignable Purchased Asset as if such nonassignable Purchased Asset had been sold, conveyed, assigned and delivered to Buyer or its applicable designee, including in the name of Seller or its applicable Affiliate to such nonassignable Purchased Asset or otherwise as Buyer shall specify, including the right to terminate in accordance with the terms thereof; and (iii) permit Buyer to practice, exercise and enforce any rights arising with respect thereto. Buyer shall assume the related economic burden imposed on Seller or its applicable Affiliate (including the amount of any related Tax costs imposed on Seller or its Affiliates) with respect to such nonassignable Purchased Asset and Buyer shall, as agent or subcontractor for Seller or its Affiliate pay, perform and discharge fully as and when required the liabilities and obligations of Seller or such Affiliate with respect to such nonassignable Purchased Asset from and after the Closing. Seller or its applicable Affiliate to the rights of such nonassignable Purchased Asset will promptly pay to Buyer or its applicable designee all income, proceeds and other monies received by such Seller or Affiliate from third parties to the extent related to Buyer’s or its Affiliates’ intended rights under such nonassignable Purchased Asset as contemplated by this Section 5.3. Without limiting the generality of any provision elsewhere herein contained, the non-assignability and non-transferability of, and the failure of any Seller to assign and transfer, any of the foregoing (or the assignment and transfer by such Seller thereof, despite the prohibition or restriction thereof or the failure to obtain the appropriate consent or to fulfill the conditions thereto) shall not alter or in any manner affect its status as a Purchased Asset. It is the intention of the parties that the “seconding” arrangements contemplated by this Section 5.3 shall be utilized only when there is no reasonable alternative to such arrangement for Buyer, even if such Seller fails to assign any such contract, lease or other instrument. Nothing contained in any transfer document required to be executed by any Seller in connection with the transfer of any contract with a governmental agency or instrumentality shall alter or in any manner affect the status of such contract as a Purchased Asset.

5.4. Further Assurances. From and after the Closing Date, upon the request of either Seller or Buyer, each of the parties hereto will do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further acts, deeds, assignments, transfers, conveyances and other instruments and papers as may be reasonably required or appropriate to carry out and/or evidence the Contemplated Transactions. Seller will not take any action that is intended to have the effect of discouraging any lessor, licensor, supplier, distributor or customer of the Business or other Person with whom the Business has a relationship from maintaining the same relationship with Buyer after the Closing as it maintained with Seller prior to the Closing.

5.5. Fees and Expenses. All costs, expenses, and fees incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions by Buyer will be paid by Buyer, and all costs, expenses, and fees incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions by Seller will be paid by Seller.

5.6. Books and Records. Seller recognizes that certain historical and other information to be retained by Seller may be needed by Buyer and its Affiliates in connection with the operation of the Business, the use of the Purchased Assets and satisfaction of the Assumed Liabilities after Closing (including for litigation, threatened litigation, Tax and financial audits and other similar purposes). Following the Closing, Seller shall grant to Buyer and its Representatives access (subject to any reasonable privilege or confidentiality considerations) during normal business hours and under reasonable circumstances to, and the right to make copies of, any records related to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities which have been retained by Seller as may be necessary or useful in connection with the conduct of the Business. If within five (5) years after the Closing, Seller elects to dispose of any such records, Seller or applicable Affiliate shall first give Buyer sixty (60) days’ prior written notice, during which period Buyer shall have the right to obtain such records without further consideration. Following the Closing, Buyer shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) grant to Seller and its Representatives access

(subject to any reasonable privilege or confidentiality considerations) during normal business hours and under reasonable circumstances to, and the right to make copies of, any records related to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities in the possession of Buyer and its Affiliates solely to the extent such records are reasonably necessary for Seller to prepare and file its Tax Returns, defend Tax audits or defend against third party claims not involving Buyer or its Affiliates.

5.7. Wrong Pockets.

(b) If Buyer discovers that it or any Affiliate is the owner of or possesses any asset, or is a party to any contract, that is not exclusively related to the Lakeland Facility (other than Purchased Assets listed on Schedule A), then Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate to transfer, or cause to be transferred, such assets or contracts to Seller for no additional consideration other than as previously provided for under this Agreement.

5.7.2. To the extent that any transfer or other arrangement described in this Section 5.7 is required, but not permitted by applicable Law or any contract referenced in Sections 5.7.1(a) or 5.7.1(b), the parties shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain or structure an arrangement to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.7.

Subject to the provisions of this Article 9, Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, Seller Parent and their Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, managers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors and Representatives (each, a “Seller Indemnified Person”), from, against and in respect of any and all Losses which any Seller Indemnified Person may suffer, sustain or become subject to as a result of, arising out of or directly or indirectly relating to: (a) any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement; (b) any fraud of Buyer or any breach or violation of any covenant or agreement of Buyer in or pursuant to this Agreement; or (c) any Assumed Liabilities.

9.2.2. Buyer will not have any obligation to indemnify and hold harmless Seller Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 9.2.1(a) in respect of Losses arising from the breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty described therein unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds $115,000 (at which point Buyer will indemnify Seller Indemnified Persons for all such Losses from dollar 1), and Buyer’s aggregate liability in respect of claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2.1(a) will not exceed an amount equal to the Cap, if any; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations will not apply to (a) claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2.1(a) in respect of breaches of, or inaccuracies in, representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1 (Organization; Authorization), 3.2 (Noncontravention) or 3.5 (No Brokers) (collectively, the “Buyer Fundamental Representations”) or (b) claims based upon fraud or intentional misrepresentation (and no Loss arising from any claim described in the foregoing clauses (a) or (b) will be subject to the foregoing limitations).

9.3. Time for Claims. No claim may be made seeking indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.1.1 (a) or 9.2.1(a) for any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty unless a written notice describing such breach or inaccuracy in reasonable detail in light of the circumstances then known to the Indemnified Person is provided to the Indemnifying Party: (a) at any time prior to the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing, in the case of any breach of, or inaccuracy in, the Seller Fundamental Representations or the Buyer Fundamental Representations, (b) at any time prior to the 15 month anniversary of the Closing Date, in the case of any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any other representation and warranty in this Agreement, and (c) at any time in the case of any claim or suit based upon fraud or intentional misrepresentation. No claim that is subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9.3 may be made after the expiration of the applicable survival period as set forth herein; provided that, in the event a notice of any claim for indemnification will have been made prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, then such claim will survive until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. Claims for indemnification pursuant to any other provision of Sections 9.1.1 and 9.2.1 (i.e., other than pursuant to Sections 9.1.1(a) or 9.2.1(a)) are not subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9.3.

9.4. Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, subject to any claim based on fraud which will not be so limited by this Section 9.4 and the availability of specific performance pursuant to Section 12.11 or other equitable remedy, the indemnification provisions in this Article 9 will be the exclusive remedy for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement.

9.5. Third Party Claims.

9.5.1. If any third party notifies an Indemnified Person with respect to any matter which may give rise to an Indemnity Claim against an Indemnifying Party under this Article 9 (a “Third Party Claim”), then the Indemnified Person will give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Person in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Article 9 except to the extent such delay actually and materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense, will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and will have the right to defend the Indemnified Person against the Third Party Claim by appointing reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person so long as (a) the Indemnifying Party gives written notice to the Indemnified Person within 30 days that it will indemnify the Indemnified Person from and against the entirety of Losses the Indemnified Person may suffer therefrom, (b) the Third Party Claim involves only claims for monetary damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Person, (c) the Indemnified Person has not been advised by counsel that a conflict exists between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the Third Party Claim, (d) the Third Party Claim does not relate to or otherwise arise in connection with any criminal or regulatory enforcement Action, (e) settlement of, an adverse judgment with respect to, or the Indemnifying Party’s conduct of the defense of the Third Party Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Person, likely to be adverse to the Indemnified Person’s reputation or continuing business interests and (f) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim reasonably actively and diligently. The Indemnified Person may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim.

9.5.2. The Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person unless such judgment, compromise or settlement (a) provides for the payment by the Indemnifying Party of money as the sole relief for the claimant, (b) results in the full release of Buyer Indemnified Persons or Seller Indemnified Persons, as applicable, from all Liabilities arising or relating to, or in connection with, the Third Party Claim and (c) involves no finding or admission of any violation of Laws or the rights of any Person and no adverse effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Person. If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the notice contemplated by clause (a) of Section 9.5.1 within 30 days after the Indemnified Person has given notice of the Third Party Claim, at any

time fails to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim reasonably actively and diligently or becomes unable to conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.5.1, the Indemnified Person may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim (and the Indemnified Person need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith). If such notice is given on a timely basis and the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim reasonably actively and diligently but any of the other conditions in Section 9.5.1 becomes unsatisfied, the Indemnified Person may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be bound by the entry of any such judgment consented to, or any such compromise or settlement effected, without its prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

9.6. No Circular Recovery. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller agrees it will not make any claim for indemnification against Buyer or any Buyer Indemnified Person by reason of the fact that Seller was a controlling person, director, officer, employee or representative of Seller with respect to any claim brought by a Buyer Indemnified Person against Seller relating to this Agreement or any of the Contemplated Transactions or that is based on any facts or circumstances that form the basis for an Indemnity Claim by a Buyer Indemnified Person hereunder.

9.7. Additional Acknowledgments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for indemnification purposes hereunder, each representation and warranty in this Agreement shall be read as if any qualification as to materiality, including each reference to the term “Material Adverse Effect,” were deleted therefrom. All indemnifiable Losses hereunder shall be calculated net of the amount of any actual recoveries received by an Indemnified Person under existing insurance policies prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.3 (in each case, net of any actual collection costs, reserves, expenses, deductibles or premium adjustments). Each Indemnified Person agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Losses to the extent required by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) no Indemnified Person shall (i) be required to take any action to mitigate any Losses incurred or suffered to the extent based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of fraud, (ii) be required to file or institute any Action to mitigate any Losses incurred or suffered, or (iii) have any obligation to take any actions that unreasonably interfere with or impact the business or Tax planning of such Indemnified Person and (b) the failure of an Indemnified Person to use such efforts to mitigate shall not constitute a defense to the Indemnifying Party’s obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement other than with respect to Losses incurred or suffered solely by reason of the Indemnified Person’s failure to use such efforts to mitigate.

9.8. Manner of Payment. Any payment to be made by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, pursuant to this Article 9 will be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the other party within five days after the final determination thereof.

9.9. Tax Treatment. All indemnification payments under this Article 9 will, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, be treated for all income Tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price. Neither Buyer nor Seller will take any position that is inconsistent with such treatment.

10. TAX MATTERS

10.1. Certain Taxes and Fees. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other similar Taxes, and any conveyance fees or recording charges incurred in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. Such Taxes will be paid by Seller when due, and Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller for its equal share of any such Taxes. Seller will, at Buyer and Seller’s expense, to be borne equally, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges and, if required by applicable Law, Buyer will (and will cause its Affiliates to) join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

10.2. Intended Tax Treatment; Purchase Price Allocation. Buyer and Seller agree that the Contemplated Transactions shall be treated for federal (and, where applicable, state and local) income Tax purposes as a taxable sale of the Purchased Assets by Seller to Buyer in exchange for the Purchase Price (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Buyer and Seller further agree to allocate the Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Section 1.5, and as increased by the Assumed Liabilities among the Purchased Assets in accordance with the methodologies shown on Schedule 10.2 (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). Seller and Buyer will (a) be bound by the Intended Tax Treatment and Purchase Price Allocation for all Tax purposes; (b) prepare and file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and Purchase Price Allocation; and (c) otherwise take no position for Tax purposes inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and Purchase Price Allocation, in each case, except to the extent required by applicable Law.

10.3. Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer and Seller will cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing and preparation of Tax Returns with respect to the Purchased Assets and any proceeding related thereto. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon the other Party’s reasonable request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, proceeding or calculation and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer and Seller will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Purchased Assets relating to any Tax period beginning before the Closing Date until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the statute or period of limitations of the respective Tax periods.

10.4. Apportionment of Straddle Period Taxes. Seller shall bear all property and ad valorem Tax liability with respect to the Purchased Assets if the lien or assessment date arises prior to the Closing Date irrespective of the reporting and payment dates of such Taxes. All other property and ad valorem Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets for Straddle Periods shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date. Seller shall be responsible for all such Taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets accruing during any period up to and including the Closing Date. Buyer shall be responsible for all such Taxes and fees on the Purchased Assets accruing during any period after the Closing Date.

11.1.3. Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Buyer at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event Buyer has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement which individually, or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Buyer to consummate the Contemplated Transactions, or (ii) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the End Date, by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 8.2 hereof (unless the failure results primarily from Seller breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement); and

11.1.4. Either Seller or Buyer may terminate this Agreement, if (i) there shall be any applicable Law that makes the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal, or (ii) any order shall have been issued by any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Contemplated Transactions, and such order shall have become final and nonappealable.

11.2. Effect of Termination.

11.2.1.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated for any other reason, then the Deposit shall be non-refundable to Buyer and as promptly as practical thereafter (and in any event within two Business Days), the parties shall deliver joint written instructions in accordance with the Deposit Escrow Agreement to the Deposit Escrow Agent to release the Deposit to Seller.

In the event that any provision hereof would, under applicable Laws, be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, each party intends that such provision will be construed by modifying or limiting it so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with, and possible under, applicable Laws and to otherwise give effect to the intent of the parties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party hereto may commence an Action in a court other than the above-named courts for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

12.9. Mutual Waiver. Each of Seller and Buyer, on behalf of themselves and their respective Affiliates and Representatives, successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably waives illegality with respect to U.S. Federal Cannabis Laws as a defense to contractual claims arising out of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or in any other document, instrument, or agreement entered into in connection the Contemplated Transactions.

12.11. Guaranty.

12.11.1. Seller Parent fully, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Buyer, as guaranty of payment, performance and observation, and not merely as a guaranty of collection, the full, complete and timely compliance with and performance of all agreements, covenants and obligations of Seller under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (the “Seller Obligations”, and such guaranty, the “Seller Parent Guaranty”).
