/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR OVER UNITED STATES WIRE SERVICES/

LOS ANGELES, April 10, 2019 /CNW/ - MedMen Enterprises Inc. ("MedMen" or the "Company") (CSE: MMEN) (OTCQX: MMNFF) (FSE: A2JM6N) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an equity distribution agreement (the "Equity Distribution Agreement") with Canaccord Genuity Corp. pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, sell Class B subordinate voting shares (the "Subordinate Voting Shares") in the capital of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds of up to CDN$60,000,000. The At-the-Market equity financing program (the "ATM program") is designed to enable the Company to issue Subordinate Voting Shares from treasury at lower cost than traditional offerings, without discount and at prevailing trading prices. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of Subordinate Voting Shares under the ATM program principally for general and administrative expenses, working capital needs and other general corporate purposes.

Since the Subordinate Voting Shares will be distributed at trading prices prevailing at the time of the sale, prices may vary between purchasers and during the period of distribution. The volume and timing of sales, if any, will be determined at the sole discretion of the Company's management and in accordance with the Equity Distribution Agreement. To date, no Subordinate Voting Shares have been distributed by the Company pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement.

"The ATM program provides added financial flexibility at attractive terms, which is critical as we continue to expand our footprint and capitalize on opportunities to increase our market share," said Michael Kramer, Chief Financial Officer. "As a complement to our other financing vehicles, we now have a variety of capital sourcing options to support the execution of our growth strategy."

Sales of Subordinate Voting Shares, if any, under the ATM program are anticipated to be made in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 – Shelf Distributions, as sales made directly on the Canadian Securities Exchange or any other recognized Canadian "marketplace" within the meaning of National Instrument 21-101 – Marketplace Operation. The ATM program is being facilitated pursuant to a prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") dated April 10, 2019 to the Company's short form base shelf prospectus (the "Shelf Prospectus") dated March 26, 2019, filed with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, which will be available on the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com or may be obtained from the Company upon written request to a contact below.

This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of, Subordinate Voting Shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The Subordinate Voting Shares have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
