/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. WIRE SERVICES/

WINNIPEG, Dec. 28, 2017 /CNW/ - Delta 9 Cannabis Inc. (TSXV:NINE) ("Delta 9" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced bought deal financing of 8,521,500 units (the "Units") at a price of C$2.70 per Unit (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds to Delta 9 of C$23,008,050 (the "Offering"). The Offering was conducted by a syndicate of underwriters led by Canaccord Genuity Corp., and including PI Financial Corp., Beacon Securities Limited, Haywood Securities Inc. and Mackie Research Capital Corporation (the "Underwriters"). The Offering included 1,111,500 Units sold pursuant to the full exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of C$3.25 per Warrant Share for a period of 30 months from the closing of the Offering. The Company has applied to list the warrants for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. The Warrants will be listed for trading subject to meeting distribution requirements and the other requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to expand Delta 9's cannabis cultivation operations and general corporate purposes.

"We were delighted to find that there was such overwhelming demand for the offering", said Delta 9 Chief Executive Officer, John Arbuthnot. "We believe that the proceeds from the base offering provide us with the ability to achieve our stated goal of having 373 grow pods producing 12,000 kilograms of cannabis on an annual basis by the end of 2019. It is our further expectation that the additional proceeds from the over-allotment option as well as anticipated revenues from the sale of cannabis will enable Delta 9 to build additional grow pods and increase its annual cannabis production capacity to well beyond 12,000 kilograms per year by mid-2020."

The Units were offered by way of a short form prospectus filed in all of the provinces of Canada except Québec pursuant to National Instrument 44-101 Short Form Prospectus Distributions.
