Aurora Announces Conversion of $15 Million Debentures

VANCOUVER, Oct. 20, 2016 /CNW/ – Aurora Cannabis Inc. (the “Company” or “Aurora”) (TSXV: ACB) (OTC: ACBFF) (Frankfurt: 21P; WKN: A1C4WM) announced today that the Company has elected to exercise its right under the indenture (the “Indenture”) governing the Company’s 10.0% unsecured convertible debentures due March 28, 2018 (the “Debentures”) to convert (the “Conversion”) all of the principal amount outstanding of the Debentures and unpaid accrued interest thereon up to November 23, 2016 into common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”). Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Company may force the conversion of the Debentures at the conversion price of $1.15 per Common Share when the VWAP of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) for 10 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $2.00.

As of close of markets October 20, 2016, the VWAP of the Common Shares on the Exchange for 10 consecutive trading days equals $2.15. The Conversion is scheduled to be effective November 23, 2016.

Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the directors of the Company have determined that, on the Conversion, holders of Debentures will receive, for each $1,000 amount of Debentures and outstanding interest thereon, 869.5652 Common Shares. Therefore, on November 23, 2016, the estimated remaining total of $5 million of Debentures and interest thereon outstanding will be converted into approximately 4,409,767 Common Shares. The remaining $10 million of Debentures were converted effective October 18, 2016.

We are very pleased to convert these Debentures, providing Aurora with an additional $5 million in permanent capital, further improving our balance sheet and our industry-leading cash position.
