Quinsam issued an aggregate of 43,160,000 Units for gross proceeds of approximately CAN$10,790,000 pursuant to the brokered offering (the “Brokered Offering”) co-led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Gravitas Securities Inc.

Each Unit consists of one (1) common share in the capital stock of Quinsam (“Common Share”) and one-half (1/2) of one common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of CAN$0.40 per Common Share until the date which is twenty-four (24) months following the closing date of the Offering, whereupon the Warrants will expire.

In connection with the Brokered Offering, as compensation for their services, the Agents received a cash commission of CAN$863,200 and were issued 1,479,000 Units. In addition, the Agents received 3,452,800 Agents’ warrants (the “Agents’ Warrants”) equal to 8.0% of the total number of Units sold pursuant to the Brokered Offering. Each Agents’ Warrant is exercisable into one Unit at an exercise price of CAN$0.25 at any time prior to the date that is thirty-six (36) months following the closing date of the Offering, whereupon the Agents’ Warrants will expire.

All securities issued or issuable pursuant to the Offering are subject to a hold period of four months and one day.

Quinsam intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to purchase financial interests in cannabis companies and for general working capital purposes.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or applicable state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to persons in the United States absent registration or an exemption from such registration requirements.
