  • 48North’s 100-acre Good:Farm will provide the Canadian cannabis market with a significant supply of organic, sun-grown cannabis. Outdoor growing is more sustainable than indoor or greenhouse production, and is expected to serve as the most cost-effective source of cannabis-based products.

    The 48North Good:Farm is committed to developing high-quality, organic cannabis and cannabis products. Products off of the Good:Farm will be infused with sun-grown, organic cannabis, perfect for the eco-conscious and wellness minded consumer.

48NORTH CANNABIS CORP. CORPORATE DISCLOSURE POLICY
48NORTH CANNABIS CORP. INSIDER TRADING POLICY
48NORTH CANNABIS CORP. COMPLAINTS PERTAINING TO CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ACCOUNTING, INTERNAL ACCOUNTING CONTROLS, AUDITING AND OTHER MATTERS (WHISTLEBLOWING POLICY)

48NORTH CANNABIS CORP. CODE OF CONDUCT

1 INTRODUCTION

The Board of Directors of 48North Cannabis Corp. and its subsidiaries (“48North”) has determined that, on the recommendation of the Governance Committee, 48North should formalise its commitment to conducting its business and affairs in accordance with a code of business conduct and ethics.

2 GENERAL PRINCIPLES

48North is committed to conducting its business and affairs with honesty, integrity and in accordance with high ethical and legal standards. This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code”) provides a set of ethical standards by which each director, officer, employee, consultant and contractor of 48North will conduct his or her business. This Code is intended to give an overview of 48North ’s expectations for its directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors and is supplemented by other policies adopted by 48North.

3 APPLICATION OF THIS CODE

The Code applies to all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North and compliance with this Code for each director constitutes terms of service, for each officer and employee constitutes conditions of employment and for each consultant and contractor constitutes conditions of providing services to 48North. Each such person agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Code upon notification of the most recent copy being given to them or upon notification that an updated version has been placed on 48North’s website for review.

4 COMMUNICATION OF THIS CODE

To ensure that all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North are aware of this Code, a copy of this Code will be provided to them and they will be advised that this Code is available on 48North’s website for their review. All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will be informed whenever significant changes are made. New directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will be educated about its importance.

5 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, CODE AND POLICIES

  1. As the anti-corruption laws of the US and Canada have extraterritorial application, all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will be bound by the most stringent requirements of those laws in all jurisdictions in which we operate, even if conduct would otherwise be permitted by the local law of a particular jurisdiction.
  2. In addition, all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors, in discharging their duties, will comply with:
    1. the laws, rules and regulations of the location in which 48North is performing business activities;
    2. this Code; and
    3. all corporate policies, which address many of the following expectations in more detail and including, without limitation, the following principal corporate policies:
      1. Corporate Disclosure Policy
      2. Insider Trading Policy
      3. Whistleblower Policy
  3. No one working for 48North, regardless of his or her position, will ever commit an illegal or unethical act, or will instruct any officer, employee, consultant or contractor to do so. If you are confronted with a situation that raises an issue under this Code or other corporate policies, ask yourself these questions and carefully consider the appropriate action where the answer may be ‘yes’:
    1. Is the life, health or safety of anyone, or the environment, endangered by the action?
    2. Is it illegal?
    3. Does it feel dishonest, unfair and/or unethical?
    4. Does it compromise anyone’s trust or integrity?
    5. Would the public disclosure of the activity in any way be embarrassing to you, 48North or any other affected employees?
  4. You should be sufficiently familiar with any laws and regulations and corporate policies and procedures that apply to your area of work and responsibility. That will permit you to recognize possible breaches and to know when to seek advice. If in doubt, you should discuss the matter with a member of senior management.

6 ANNUAL CERTIFICATION REGARDING COMPLIANCE

  1. All directors, officers, employees and consultants of 48North, together with any contractors that the Board of Directors of 48North may decide, will provide annual certification of compliance with this Code in the form available for review on 48North’s website.
  2. The Corporate Secretary of 48North will be responsible for ensuring that all annual certifications are obtained on or before the end of the first fiscal quarter of each year, and for providing written confirmation to the Board of Directors that such certifications have been obtained and summarizing the results thereof.

7 STANDARDS OF GOOD PROFESSIONAL ETHICS

48North intends that its good reputation will be maintained and, accordingly, all of 48North’s activities will be carried out ethically and with honesty and integrity, in the expectation that these activities will become a matter of public knowledge. Anything less is unacceptable and will be treated as a serious breach of duty.

8 PROTECTION AND PROPER USE OF ASSETS

All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North will deal with 48North’s assets, including all data, information (confidential or otherwise), records, material, facilities and equipment, with the strictest integrity and with due regard to the interests of shareholders and all other stakeholders. 48North’s assets may not to be used for personal gain or benefit. In addition, all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors must protect such assets from loss, damage, misuse, theft and waste and ensure that such assets are used only for legitimate business purposes.

9 GOOD AMBASSADORSHIP

  1. All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors are ambassadors of 48North in both their business and personal lives. While 48North supports the freedom of the individual to pursue life in his or her own way outside of business hours, directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors are encouraged to act in a manner which upholds their good reputation and that of 48North.
  2. All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will represent 48North in a professional manner at all times. Neither the reputation nor the image of 48North will be jeopardized at any time. The behaviour of all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors is seen to reflect that of 48North, so all actions must reflect the policies of 48North.

10 CONFLICT OF INTEREST

  1. Directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors, in discharging their duties, will act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of 48North.
  2. Directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will avoid situations involving a conflict, or potential conflict, between their personal, family or business interests, and the interests of 48North.
  3. Directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will perform their duties and arrange their personal business affairs in a manner that does not interfere with their independent exercise of judgment. No director, officer or employee of 48North or consultant or contractor working for 48North will accept financial compensation of any kind, nor any special discount, loan or favour, from persons, corporations or organizations having dealings or potential dealings with 48North.
  4. Non-executive directors of 48North are not expected to devote their time and effort solely on behalf of 48North, and they may have a variety of other business relationships that could give rise to a conflict of interest. Any such potential conflicts of interest are not subject to the Code and are to be resolved directly with the Board of Directors.

11 CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

  1. Directors, officers and employees are prohibited from taking for themselves opportunities that arise through the use of corporate property, information or position and from using corporate property, information or position for personal gain. Officers and employees are also prohibited from competing with 48North directly or indirectly and owe a duty to 48North to advance the legitimate interests of 48North when the opportunity to do so arises.
  2. Non-executive directors of 48North may have a variety of other business relationships involving duties of loyalty. In addition, outside directors do not, as a general matter, have the same obligation as officers and employees to bring corporate opportunities to 48North. For these reasons, the Code does not apply to outside directors with respect to corporate opportunities that do not involve property of, information of or positions with 48North, and such issues, to the extent they arise, are to be resolved directly with the Board of Directors.

12 HUMAN RIGHTS

All directors, officers and employees will adhere to 48North’s commitment to promoting respect for internationally recognized human rights as set forth in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

13 EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

48North is committed to providing a work environment that enables all employees to be recruited, and to pursue their careers, free from any form of unwarranted discrimination. In particular, 48North will not discriminate on the basis of age, colour, creed, disability, ethnic origin, gender, marital status, national origin, political belief, race, religion or sexual orientation, unless required for occupational reasons or legislation.

14 HARASSMENT

All employees have a right to work in an environment free from all forms of harassment. Harassment is defined as any unwanted conduct or comment that is intimidating, hostile or offensive in the work environment.

15 ALCOHOL AND DRUGS

Any misuse of alcohol or legal drugs (prescribed or un-prescribed), or the use of any illegal drugs, may jeopardize job safety and/or performance, and is prohibited in the 48North workplace. No officer, employee, consultant or contractor will enter the workplace under the influence of alcohol or such drugs that may impair safety and/or performance.

16 REPORTING VIOLATIONS OF THE CODE – WHISTLEBLOWER POLICY

  1. All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors will adhere to 48North’s commitment to conduct its business and affairs in a lawful and ethical manner. All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors are encouraged to raise any queries with the Corporate Secretary.
  2. In addition, any director, officer, employee, consultant and contractor of 48North who becomes aware of any instance where 48North receives a solicitation to engage in any act prohibited by this Code, or who becomes aware of any information suggesting that a violation of this Code has occurred or is about to occur is required to report it to the Corporate Secretary.
  3. Persons who wish to raise a possible policy breach or legal or ethical concerns or report another’s wrongdoing, are sometimes worried about possible repercussions. 48North aims to encourage openness and will support anyone who raises genuine concerns in good faith under this Policy, even if they turn out to be mistaken. No directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North will suffer demotion, penalty, or other adverse consequences for raising a possible policy breach, legal or ethical concerns or for reporting possible wrongdoing, even if it may result in the Company losing business or otherwise suffering a disadvantage.
  4. 48North has also adopted a Whistleblower Policy which provides procedures for reporting violations of laws, rules, regulations or 48North’s corporate policies, including a procedure for anonymous reporting.

17 CONSEQUENCES OF NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE CODE

Failure to comply with this Code may result in severe consequences, which could include internal disciplinary action or termination of employment or consulting arrangements without notice. Violation of this Code may also violate or constitute a criminal offence under US, or Canadian laws. If it appears that any director, officer, employee, consultant or contractor of 48North may have violated such laws, then 48North may refer the matter to the appropriate regulatory authorities, which could lead to penalties, fines or imprisonment for 48North and/or the responsible person.

18 REVIEW OF CODE

    2. Within the members of senior management enumerated above, the Chief Executive Officer is the individual primarily responsible for ensuring that 48North complies with all legal and regulatory disclosure requirements and for:
      1. overseeing 48North’s corporate disclosure practices and monitoring compliance with this Policy;
      2. initiating, with input and advice from the other members of senior management, disclosure of material information in accordance with the processes and procedures set out in this Policy; and
      3. dealing with any issues which may be raised by the regulatory authorities.
  2. Disclosure Committee
    1. 48North has established a disclosure committee (“Disclosure Committee”) which is responsible for determining whether information is material information, the timely disclosure of material information in accordance with applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules and regulations, monitoring compliance with this Policy, and overseeing 48North’s disclosure controls and procedures.
    2. The Disclosure Committee is not a committee of the Board. Members of the Disclosure Committee will be the:
      1. Chief Executive Officer;
      2. Chief Financial Officer;
      3. Chief Operating Officer;
      4. Legal Counsel; and
      5. Chairman of the Board of Directors if a quorum of the Disclosure Committee cannot be achieved or the Chief Executive Officer deems necessary.
    3. The Disclosure Committee may delegate specific functions to sub-committees of the Disclosure Committee, subject to final report to the Disclosure Committee. A quorum of the Disclosure Committee is the Chief Executive Officer and any two members. Each member of the Disclosure Committee may appoint a designee to act in their absence. Normally, decisions of the Disclosure Committee will be made by majority vote of the quorum.
    4. The Disclosure Committee shall appoint a Corporate Secretary for the Committee, who need not be a member of the Disclosure Committee, who shall be responsible for maintaining a record of its work and deliberations and otherwise documenting compliance with the requirements of this Policy. The Corporate Secretary, working with the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Executive Officer (with regard to financial/investor or other disclosures respectively) will organize all meetings of the Disclosure Committee, prepare agendas, assemble and circulate relevant draft and supporting documentation and keep minutes of meetings and decisions of the Disclosure Committee, and provide a copy of such records to the Audit Committee.
  3. Informing the Disclosure Committee of Corporate Developments
    1. All employees of 48North, directly or through their immediate supervisor, must keep all members of the Disclosure Committee sufficiently appraised of potentially material developments on a timely basis so they can discuss and evaluate any events that might give rise to a disclosure obligation. For clarity, it is the responsibility of each employee to inform senior management without delay of events or developments that might have a material effect on the Corporation.
    2. It is the responsibility of all members of senior management to inform the members of the Disclosure Committee of such information. If any officer or member of the Disclosure Committee receives a report of non-public, possibly or potentially material information and concludes that the Corporation may have an obligation to promptly disclose that information to securities regulators, stock exchanges, shareholders or the public, that person shall promptly advise the members of the Disclosure Committee. The Disclosure Committee shall promptly convene (or communicate electronically) to consider the significance and need for disclosure of that information and, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, shall take such steps as its members deem appropriate under the circumstances
    3. The Disclosure Committee will meet (or communicate by telephone or electronically) on the request of any member in the event of the occurrence of an event or situation involving or affecting the Corporation which may warrant public disclosure.

6 GENERAL GUIDELINES

  1. Principals of Disclosure of Material Information
    1. In complying with the continuous disclosure obligations imposed by Canadian securities law and the rules and regulations of any stock exchange the company is listed on, 48North will observe the following principles in disseminating material information:
      1. subject to the determination of confidentiality as described below, material information will be publicly disclosed promptly by way of press release, the dissemination of which will include all applicable regulators;
      2. material changes in the business and affairs of 48North will be described in a material change report, which will be filed with the applicable Canadian securities regulators as soon as practical and in any event no later than ten (10) days after the material change occurs. In the event of a material change which the Chief Executive Officer has determined should remain confidential, upon approval by the Board of Directors, a confidential material change report will be filed with the applicable Canadian securities regulators, and the Chief Executive Officer and the Board will review their decision to keep the information confidential not less than every ten (10) days;
      3. there is no distinction between favourable and unfavourable material information for disclosure purposes, and both types of information must be promptly and fully disclosed in accordance with this Policy;
      4. disclosure must be complete and include any information which by omission would make the rest of the disclosure misleading;
      5. there must not be selective disclosure, whether to an analyst, investor or others; and
      6. disclosure should, to the fullest extent possible, be written in accordance with the plain language principles set forth in Companion Policy 51-102CP.
  2. Material Information
    1. Material information is any information relating to the business and affairs of 48North that results in, or would reasonably be expected to result in; a significant change in the market price or value of any of 48North’s securities or that would reasonably be expected to have a significant influence on a reasonable investor’s investment decisions.
    2. When determining whether or not information is material, the following principles will be taken into account:
      1. the nature of the information, the volatility and liquidity of 48North’s securities and how prevailing market conditions will impact on materiality;
      2. the determination of whether or not information is material often involves the exercise of sound business judgments based upon experience; and
      3. both positive and negative information can be material. Because disclosure (or non-disclosure) will be evaluated after the fact with the benefit of hindsight, questions concerning the materiality of particular information should be resolved by treating such information as being material.
    3. Material information includes, but is not limited to:
      1. significant changes to major assets and operations;
      2. significant or material contracts;
      3. financial performance and significant changes in financial performance;
      4. business and strategic plans;
      5. major corporate acquisitions and dispositions;
      6. significant changes in senior management;
      7. significant changes in corporate structure, such as reorganizations;
      8. significant litigation;
      9. changes in capital structure and public or private sale of securities;
      10. borrowing of a significant amount of funds;
      11. entering into or loss of significant contracts; and
      12. takeover bids or issuer bids.
  3. Issuing News Releases and other Public Documents
    1. In accordance with Section 5.3, the Disclosure Committee will make the determination whether any particular material information should be disclosed and the timing of such disclosure.
    2. 48North’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and those individuals designated by the Chief Executive Officer, are responsible for initiating and overseeing presentations, conference calls and other communications with analysts and other members of the financial community and for overseeing the electronic communications aspect of this Policy.
  4. Designated Spokespeople
    The designated spokespersons for 48North, responsible for communication with the media and the investment community (e.g. analysts, shareholders, potential investors), are the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and any other person designated by the Chief Executive Officer. Designated spokespersons for any subsidiary of 48North will be determined by the Chief Executive Officer. Directors, officers and employees other than the designated spokespersons must not respond under any circumstances to inquiries from the investment community, the media, regulatory authorities or others unless specifically authorized by one of the spokespersons identified above. All such communications must be referred to an authorized spokesperson.
  5. Confidentiality of Information
    1. All Subject Persons are legally bound not to disclose confidential information to anyone outside of 48North. In addition to the legal requirements, Subject Persons are expected to observe the following:
      1. do not discuss 48North’s business and affairs in places where the discussion may be overheard by persons not authorized to have the information;
      2. confidential documents should not be read or displayed in public places or discarded where they can be retrieved;
      3. documents and files containing confidential information should be kept in a safe place with restricted access;
      4. transmission of documents by fax, email or other electronic means should be made only where it is reasonable to assume that transmission can be made and received under secure conditions; and
      5. documents containing confidential information should be promptly removed from conference rooms and work areas after meetings have concluded and extra copies of confidential documents should be destroyed.
    2. Every effort must be made to limit access to confidential information to only those persons who need to know the information, and such persons must be advised that the information is to be kept confidential.
    3. Outside parties who receive or are privy to undisclosed confidential information in the course of conducting business with 48North must confirm their commitment to non-disclosure in a written confidentiality agreement.
  6. Selective Disclosure
    All Subject Persons are legally bound not to disclose confidential information to anyone outside of 48North who is not subject to a confidentiality obligation. Disclosure of such information that has not been publicly disclosed to any person or select group, including investment analysts, institutional investors, other market professionals and the media, is considered selective disclosure. Selective disclosure is illegal and is prohibited.
  7. Unintentional Selective Disclosure
    Disclosure of material information that has not previously been publicly disclosed by a person who either did not know its confidential nature or was reckless in not knowing, prior to making the disclosure, is unintentional selective disclosure. If unintentional selective disclosure has been made, then the Disclosure Committee must be immediately notified, for example through contact with the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of 48North. The Disclosure Committee will immediately take all appropriate steps including:
    1. notify the stock exchange the company is listed on immediately of the unintentional selective disclosure and determine with the stock exchange whether a trading halt should be instituted pending issuance of a press release;
    2. publicly disclose the material information by way of press release as soon as practicable; and
    3. notify the person to whom the unintentional selective disclosure was made that such information has not been publicly disclosed and must remain confidential and that he or she may not trade in securities of 48North until the information is generally disclosed.

7 DEALING WITH REGULATORS

  1. If requested by a stock exchange or other securities regulatory authority to make a public statement, including in response to a rumor, the Disclosure Committee will consider whether to make a statement and determine the content of the disclosure, if any. In making its decision, the Disclosure Committee may consider the advice of the securities regulatory authority or other external advisors, as it deems appropriate.
  2. The Chief Financial Officer will be responsible for receiving inquiries from the market surveillance division of the stock exchange with respect to unusual trading activity or market rumors.
  3. The Chief Financial Officer is responsible for contacting the market surveillance divisions of the stock exchange in advance of a news release of material information, to seek approval of the news release, to watch unusual trading, and to determine if a halt in trading is required.

8 DEALING WITH THE INVESTMENT COMMUNITY

  1. General
    In communicating with investment analysts, security holders, potential investors and the media, the following practices must be avoided:
    1. announcing material information that has not previously been announced by way of a press release;
    2. selective disclosure;
    3. distribution of investment analyst reports (only lists of all analysts providing coverage will be supplied); and
    4. commenting on current period earnings estimates and financial assumptions other than as may be generally disclosed.
  2. Conference Calls
    1. 48North may hold investor and media conference calls with investment analysts and other interested parties as soon as practicable (usually within one business day) after the release of annual and quarterly financial results. Normally, media are invited to listen to investor conference calls and investors are able to listen to media conference calls. Conference calls may also be held following announcements of material information and events, however, they are not a substitute for disclosure of material information by way of press release.
    2. 48North will announce the date and time of any conference call in a news release prior to the call, if appropriate, and on 48North’s website. An audio recording of the conference call will be made available by either telephone or through an internet webcast for a limited time period thereafter.
    3. The Chief Financial Officer (and other members of the Disclosure Committee, as appropriate) normally holds a debriefing meeting as soon as practicable after any conference call. If such debriefing uncovers unintentional selective disclosure of previously undisclosed material information, the Disclosure Committee will determine the appropriate courses of action.
  3. Analyst Meetings
    1. 48North’s executives may meet with analysts and portfolio managers on an individual or small group basis as required, and initiate or respond to analysts and investor calls. Normally, the Chief Executive Officer and/or Chief Financial Officer, or their designee, will attend such meetings. When the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or their designee, is unable to attend such meetings, they/she may brief those participating in 48North’s public disclosure prior to such meetings to help ensure consistency in messages and disclosure. Where practical, statements and responses to anticipated questions should be scripted or discussed in advance by Investor Relations. The purposes of the Chief Executive Officer and/or Chief Financial Officer’s attendance at such meetings and/or the pre-briefing is to keep detailed records and/or transcripts of all meetings, and to ensure that selective disclosure of undisclosed material information does not occur, and to allow follow-up cross-briefing to other authorized spokespeople to ensure that communication is consistent amongst all authorized spokespeople.
    2. In general, conversations with analysts should be limited to explanations or clarifications of publicly disclosed material information or other non-material information or non-confidential information. When information is formalized into a written schedule for wide distribution, it will be included in the official disclosure record containing copies of all such information. While 48North must provide the same oral or written schedule information to any person who requests it, it is not required to formally capture the various non-material discussions held.
    3. If, for any reason, material information is selectively disclosed to analysts, investors or media in any forum, the members of the Disclosure Committee should be immediately notified.
  4. Analyst Reports and Models
    1. No one may comment on analyst reports, financial models and their underlying assumptions. However, 48North may correct inaccurate factual information and discuss economic and industry trends, which are generally known, that may affect it.
    2. Analyst reports are proprietary to the analyst’s firm and 48North should not be seen as endorsing such reports by redistributing or making them generally available to the public or to employees. Notwithstanding this, 48North can distribute analyst reports to its board of directors, senior managers, credit agencies and financial and professional advisors to assist them in monitoring communications about 48North and how corporate developments are affecting their analysis.
    3. 48North will post on its website a complete listing of the analysts who have reports available for their retail clients (regardless of their recommendation), and their firm. 48North will not provide a link to their website or publications and will not post copies of analyst reports on the 48North Website.
  5. Analyst Revenues, Earnings and Other Estimates
    1. Responses to inquiries by analysts regarding 48North’s revenues, earnings, and other estimates will be limited to company forecasts and guidance already publicly disclosed, and the range and average of estimates made by other analysts. 48North must not guide analysts with respect to earnings estimates.
    2. Should management determine that future results will likely be significantly out of the range of any previously issued guidance by 48North (particularly if earnings are expected to be below the range), the Disclosure Committee should consider the appropriateness of issuing a news release and conducting a conference call to explain the change.
  6. Industry Conferences
    48North may participate in various industry conferences in Canada and elsewhere. In general, conversations with interested parties should be limited to explanations or clarifications of publicly disclosed material information or other non-material information or non-confidential information. Brochures or other hand-outs must be approved by the Chief Financial Officer and, if required, by the Disclosure Committee, prior to undisclosed dissemination to the public. The Chief Financial Officer or a designee should be present to monitor that undisclosed material information is not disclosed.
  7. Blackout Periods
    During blackout periods (See the 48North Insider Trading Policy), all 48North spokespersons are prohibited from commenting on current period earnings estimates and financial assumptions, other than to cite or refer to existing public guidance. Communications must be limited to commenting on publicly available or non-material information. During blackout periods, all 48North spokespersons must also avoid initiating meetings (in person or by phone) with investment analysts, security holders, potential investors and the media on items significant to investors, other than responding to unsolicited inquiries concerning factual information. 48North does not, however, have to stop all communications with analysts or investors during this period and may, for example, participate in investment meetings and conferences organized by other parties, as long as material information which has not been publicly disclosed is not selectively disclosed.

9 DEALING WITH THE MEDIA

In communicating with the media, the following procedures will be followed:

  1. 48North will not provide any material information or related documents to a reporter on an exclusive basis;
  2. Media spokespeople should promptly respond to all media inquiries. Senior management or subject matter experts should be utilized in key announcements, as appropriate, to build creditability and provide more informed disclosure; and
  3. Media news conferences on financial matters are normally conducted in separate forums from investors but access to information disclosed should be similar in all material respects. The Chief Executive Officer and/or Chief Financial Officer or a designee should attend media conferences to monitor that undisclosed material information has not been selectively disclosed.

10 DEALING WITH LEAKS, RUMOURS AND SPECULATION

In dealing with leaks, rumours and speculation, the following procedures will be followed:

  1. 48North’s policy is to not comment, affirmatively or negatively, on rumours. This also applies to rumours on the internet. 48North’s designated spokespersons will respond consistently to those rumours by stating “It is our policy not to comment on market rumors or speculation”;
  2. If the stock exchange the company is listed on requests that 48North make a definitive statement in response to a market rumour that is causing significant volatility in the stock, the Chief Executive Officer will consider the matter and present a recommendation as to the nature and content of a response to the Disclosure Committee and the Disclosure Committee will decide whether to make a policy exception; and
  3. If the rumour is true in whole or in part with respect to undisclosed material information an obligation to disclose such information may be created. In such circumstances, 48North will immediately contact the stock exchange the company is listed on to discuss whether trading in 48North’s securities should be halted pending the issuance of a press release disclosing the relevant material information.

11 MAINTENANCE OF DISCLOSURE RECORD

The Chief Executive Officer will maintain:

  1. a record of all disclosure documents prepared and filed with securities regulators;
  2. copies of all minutes of the meetings and decisions of the Disclosure Committee; and
  3. copies of transcripts of presentations, conference calls and webcasts, notes from meetings with the media and analysts and analyst reports on 48North.

12 ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS

  1. General
    This Policy also applies to electronic communications. Accordingly, officers and employees responsible for written and oral public disclosures are also responsible for electronic communications.
  2. Website
    1. The head of Business Development will monitor 48North’s website (“48North Website”) for 48North to ensure that all information on the 48North Website is accurate, complete, up-to-date and in compliance with all relevant securities laws, the Electronic Communications Disclosure Guidelines established by the stock exchange the company is listed on (“Stock Exchange Guidelines”) for the design of a website and dissemination of information electronically, and this Policy.
    2. Disclosure on the 48North Website alone does not constitute adequate disclosure of information that is considered material non-public information. Any disclosure of material information on the 48North Website must be preceded by the issuance of a news release.
    3. If 48North is considering a distribution of its securities, the content of the 48North Website must be reviewed before and during the offering to ensure compliance with applicable securities laws.
    4. All investor relations material will be contained within a separate section of the 48North Website and will include a notice that advises the reader that the information posted was accurate at the time of posting, but may be superseded by subsequent disclosures. Any material changes to the material posted on the 48North Website must be updated immediately.
    5. The following information will be included in the “Investors” section of the 48North’s website for the applicable retention periods noted below:
      1. all public information that has been disclosed, including either (i) complete copies of or (ii) a link to all documents that have been filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and on SEDAR; and
      2. all information that is given to analysts, institutional investors and other market professionals, such as fact sheets, fact books, slides of investor presentations and material distributed at analyst and industry conferences.
    6. The Chief Financial Officer will be responsible for:

      2. carrying out regular reviews of the 48North Website to ensure that the information on the 48North Website is accurate, complete, up to date and in compliance with any stock exchange the company is listed on electronic communications disclosure guidelines and any other applicable disclosure requirements, and to regularly update and correct any outdated or inaccurate information;
      3. ensure that all outdated or inaccurate information is removed on a timely basis and electronically archived, with a link being provided to enable a website user to request such archived information;

        • one year for annual information forms
        • one year for press releases

  3. Internet Chat Rooms and Electronic Bulletin Boards

    2. Access to the Internet is also provided for business purposes and employees are responsible for any action taken while using the Internet or e-mail and will be held accountable. In order to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Policy and general conduct of business by employees, 48North has the right, without the consent of any employee, to monitor any and all of the aspects of its computer system, including, without limitation, reviewing documents created and stored on its computer system (including laptops), deleting any matter stored in its system, monitoring sites visited by employees on the Internet, monitoring chat and news groups, reviewing material downloaded or uploaded by users from the Internet, and reviewing e-mail sent and received by users. Employees should not have an expectation of privacy in anything they create, store, send or receive on 48North’s computer system.

  6. at the beginning of any conference call or presentation, a 48North spokesperson will make a statement that forward-looking information may be discussed.

Approved by: The Board of Directors

48NORTH CANNABIS CORP. INSIDER TRADING POLICY

Return to top

1 INTRODUCTION

The Board of Directors of 48North Cannabis Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Company” or “48North”)1 has determined that 48North should formalize its policy on matters relating to the awareness of the prohibitions on, and prevention of, Insider Trading as it relates to personnel employed by or under contract to 48North.

2 OBJECTIVE OF THE POLICY

The objective of this Insider Trading Policy (“Policy”) is to ensure that 48North and all persons to whom this Policy applies meet their obligations under applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules by ensuring that all such persons who have Material Non-Public Information (as defined below) do not engage in insider trading or tipping.

3 APPLICATION OF THE POLICY

  1. The provisions of this Policy apply to all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North, each of whom will agree to be bound by such provisions upon notification of the most recent copy, and all Related Persons (as defined below) of such persons (collectively, “Restricted Persons”).
  2. The provisions of this Policy that apply to trading and reporting of transactions in securities apply to all transactions in 48North’s securities, including common shares, stock options and any other securities 48North may issue from time to time (as well as the securities of other companies described in Section 5.4 (d) below).
  3. This Policy should be read with and in conjunction to 48North’s Corporate Disclosure Policy.

4 COMMUNICATION OF THIS POLICY

To ensure that all Restricted Persons are aware of the Policy, a copy of the Policy will be distributed to all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North, or alternatively they will be advised that the Policy is available on 48North’s website for their review. All such persons will be informed whenever significant changes are made. New directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North will be provided with a copy of this Policy and will be educated about its importance.

5 DEFINITIONS & EXPLANATIONS

  1. What is “Material Non-Public Information”?
    1. “Material Information” is any information relating to the business and affairs of 48North that results in, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a significant change in the market price or value of any of 48North’s securities or that would reasonably be expected to have a significant influence on a reasonable investor’s investment decisions.
    2. Both positive and negative information can be material. Because trading will be evaluated after the fact with the benefit of hindsight, questions concerning the materiality of particular information should be resolved by treating such information as being material. See Section 6 of 48North’s Corporate Disclosure Policy for more information on how to determine if information is material and also for examples of material information.
    3. “Non-Public Information” is information that is not generally known or available to the public. Information is considered to be available to the public only when it has been released broadly to the marketplace (such as by a press release or by filings with the Securities Commissions) and the investing public has had time to absorb the information fully. As a general rule, information is considered non-public until the close of business on the second full trading day after the information is released. “Trading day” shall mean a day on which the Toronto Stock Exchange is open for trading.2
  2. Who is a “Related Person”?
    For purposes of this Policy, a “Related Person” includes: your spouse, minor children and anyone else living in your household, or who does not live in your household but whose transactions in 48North’s securities are directed by you or are subject to your influence or control; partnerships in which you are a general partner; trusts of which you are a trustee; and estates of which you are an executor. Although a person’s parent or sibling may not be considered a Related Person (unless living in the same household), a parent or sibling may be a “tippee” for securities laws purposes. See below for a discussion on the prohibition on “tipping”.
  3. Who is a “Reporting Insider”?
    All directors, officers and certain designated employees of 48North as listed in Section 5.6 below are considered as Reporting Insiders and, in addition to the terms and conditions of this Policy, are subject to the reporting obligations stipulated in applicable securities laws.
  4. “Reporting Insiders” include, among others:
    1. the CEO, CFO, CCO, COO, Corporate Secretary or General Counsel of 48North or of a major subsidiary of the Company;
    2. a director of the Company or of a major subsidiary of the Company;
    3. a person or company responsible for a principal business unit, division or function of the Company;
    4. any other insider who:
      1. in the ordinary course receives or has access to information as to material facts or material changes concerning 48North before the material facts or material changes are generally disclosed; and
      2. directly or indirectly exercises, or has the ability to exercise, significant power or influence over the business, operations, capital or development of 48North.
  5. If an individual falls into one of the above categories, that individual is required to file insider trading reports and should consult with the Chief Financial Officer to confirm his or her reporting obligations.

6 SPECIFIC POLICIES AND GUIDELINES

  1. Non-disclosure of Material Non-Public Information
    1. Maintaining the confidentiality of information of 48North is essential for competitive, security and other business reasons, as well as to comply with securities laws. You should treat all information you learn about 48North or its business plans in connection with your employment or association as confidential and proprietary to 48North. Inadvertent disclosure of confidential or inside information may expose 48North and you to significant risk of investigation and liability.
    2. The timing and nature of 48North’s disclosure of Material Information to outsiders is subject to legal rules, the breach of which could result in substantial liability to you, 48North and its management. Accordingly, Material Non-Public Information must not be disclosed to anyone, except to persons within 48North or third-party agents of 48North (such as investment banking advisors or outside legal counsel) whose positions require them to know it, until such information has been publicly released by 48North.
    3. For further information on the treatment of confidential information, reference should be made to 48North’s “Corporate Disclosure Policy”.
  2. Prohibited Trading in 48North Securities
    1. No Restricted Person shall, directly or indirectly, engage in any transaction involving a purchase or sale of 48North’s securities during any period commencing with the date that he or she possesses Material Non-Public Information of 48North and ending at the close of business on the second trading day following public disclosure of that information. For greater certainty, examples of prohibited transactions would include, but are not limited to the following:
      1. buying or selling securities of 48North, other than through the exercise of 48North granted fixed price share options or warrants, but not the sale of the securities so acquired (see below);
      2. buying or selling securities whose price or value may reasonably be expected to be affected by changes in price of securities of 48North;
      3. selling securities acquired through the exercise of share options or warrants; and
      4. buying or selling securities of another company in which 48North proposes to invest or with which 48North has a business relationship or where the individual, in the course of employment with 48North, becomes aware of Material Non-Public Information concerning that other company.
    2. Restricted Persons may be subject to civil and criminal liabilities for engaging in such transactions at a time when they have knowledge of Material Non-Public Information about or affecting 48North.
  3. “Tipping” Information to Others
    1. No Restricted Person shall disclose (“tip”) Material Non-Public Information to any other person (including Related Persons) where such information may be used by such person to his or her benefit by trading in the securities of companies to which such information relates, nor shall such Restricted Person make recommendations or express opinions on the basis of Material Non-Public Information as to trading in securities of 48North or other companies.
    2. Restricted Persons may also be liable for improper transactions by any person (commonly referred to as a “tippee”) to whom they have disclosed Material Non-Public Information or to whom they have made recommendations or expressed opinions on the basis of such information.
  4. Avoid Speculation
    In order to ensure that perceptions of improper insider trading do not arise, Restricted Persons should not “speculate” in securities of 48North. For the purpose of this Policy, the word “speculate” means the purchase or sale of securities with the intention of reselling or buying back in a relatively short period of time in the expectation of a rise or fall in the market price of such securities. Speculating in such securities for short-term profit is distinguished from purchasing and selling securities as part of a long-term investment program. “Speculation” does not include the exercise of 48North granted, fixed price share options or warrants and sale of the securities so acquired in order to take the benefit of long term appreciation inherent in such options or warrants, so long as the sale does not involve the use of Material Non-Public Information.

7 TRADING RESTRICTIONS

  1. No Trade Periods
    1. Mandatory Periodic Blackouts

    2. Directors, officers, senior management and all corporate employees of 48North may not trade in 48North’s securities during the following periods:
      1. with respect to annual and quarterly financial statements, 14 days prior to the Board meeting to approve the financial statements until the close of business on the second trading day after public disclosure of such financial statements.

      Event Specific Blackout Periods

    3. From time to time, information may develop or an event may occur that is material to 48North but not yet disclosed or disclosable (e.g., material drilling results that are in the process of assay and verification, or negotiation of a material contract). The Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or their designee will inform directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of an event specific blackout by means of e-mail notification and any other necessary means. All directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors of 48North are prohibited from trading securities of 48North during the event specific blackout. The existence of any event specific blackout is itself confidential and must be kept confidential by all directors, officers, employees, consultants and contractors. Once instituted, an event specific blackout period will continue to exist until the CEO, CFO or designated person communicates its termination.
  2. No Hedging
    No officer or director is permitted to purchase financial instruments for the purpose of, or shall otherwise engage in, hedging or other price protective transactions with respect to options or other equity or equity related securities of the Company which are held, directly or indirectly, by the officer or director. In addition, no officer or director is permitted to engage in the short sale of securities of the Company or sales of borrowed securities of the Company. For the purposes hereof, the concurrent short sale of Company shares as a method of facilitating the exercise of a vested option granted by the Company shall be deemed not to be a short sale for purposes of the aforementioned restriction.
  3. Pre-Clearance Requirements
    Directors and Officers of 48North must obtain prior clearance from the CEO or CFO before he, she or a Related Person makes any purchases or sales of 48North’s securities, including, but not limited to, any exercise of stock options. Notice of any proposed transaction is to be given to the CEO, CFO and other persons designated by the CEO from time to time. Each proposed transaction will be evaluated to determine if it raises insider trading concerns or other concerns under securities laws and regulations or otherwise may have an appearance of impropriety. Clearance of a transaction is valid only for a period of five business days. If the transaction order is not placed within that five-business day period, clearance of the transaction must be re-requested. If clearance is denied, the fact of such denial must be kept confidential by the person requesting such clearance. If 48North becomes aware of Material Non-Public Information, all persons who have pre-cleared transactions that have not been completed will be asked to withdraw their trading instructions.
  4. Exception to Trading Restriction
    Trading by Restricted Persons during blackout periods may be permitted in exceptional circumstances with the prior approval of the CEO or CFO, provided that the individual is not in possession of Material Non-Public Information. Exceptional circumstances may, for example, arise where the individual is subject to a pressing financial commitment that cannot be satisfied other than by the sale of securities of 48North, or where the timing of the trade is important for tax planning purposes. The approval for such trades will only be provided upon receipt of positive clearance by legal counsel and may require the Restricted Person to make specific representations regarding the circumstances. If such a pre-clearance is granted under this Policy, such persons are reminded of the general prohibition against insider trading under Canadian securities laws generally, and that compliance with those laws is the sole responsibility of the Restricted Person.
  5. For greater certainty, the prohibition regarding trading in securities of 48North during a blackout period does not apply to the acquisition of securities through the exercise of 48North granted fixed price share options or warrants, but does apply to the sale of the securities acquired through the exercise of the options or warrants.

8 REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

    2. involves, directly or indirectly, a security or related financial instrument of 48North, and the Reporting Insider is not otherwise required to file an Insider Report, the Reporting Insider must, within 5 days of such event, file an Insider Report in respect of such event.

48NORTH CANNABIS CORP. COMPLAINTS PERTAINING TO CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ACCOUNTING, INTERNAL ACCOUNTING CONTROLS, AUDITING AND OTHER MATTERS (WHISTLEBLOWING POLICY)

Return to top

1 INTRODUCTION AND APPLICATION OF THE POLICY

  1. 48North Cannabis Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Company” or “48North”) is committed to maintaining high standards of business conduct and ethics, as well as full compliance with all applicable government laws, rules and regulations relating to corporate reporting and disclosure, accounting practices, accounting controls, auditing practices and other processes for the prevention of fraud, bribery and corruption (collectively “Governance Concerns”). Similarly, 48North expects all Relevant Persons (as defined below) to maintain high standards in conducting business with honesty and integrity.
  2. Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee (“Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of 48North is responsible for ensuring that a process exists whereby persons can report any Governance Concerns relating to 48North. In order to carry out its responsibilities, the Audit Committee has adopted this Whistleblowing Policy, which has been approved for implementation by the Company (“Policy”).
  3. This Policy applies to all individuals working at all levels of the organisation, including directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors, part-time and fixed-term workers, and casual and agency staff (each a “Relevant Person”).

2 GOVERNANCE CONCERNS EXPLAINED

  1. For the purposes of this Policy, “Governance Concerns” is intended to be broad and comprehensive and to include any matter, which in the reasonable and genuinely held belief of a Relevant Person, represents malpractice, is illegal, unethical, irregular or criminal, contrary to the policies of 48North or in some other manner not right or proper.
  2. Examples would include:
    1. violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation the reporting and disclosure;
    2. violation of 48North’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics;
    3. fraud or deliberate error in the preparation, evaluation, financial statement of 48North;
    4. fraud or deliberate error in the recording and maintaining of 48North’s financial records;
    5. deficiencies in or noncompliance with 48North’s internal policies and controls;
    6. misrepresentation or a false statement by or to a director, officer or employee of 48North respecting a matter contained in the financial records, reports or audit reports;
    7. deviation from full and fair reporting of 48North’s financial condition;
    8. the deliberate concealment of any of the above matters; and
    9. a violation of the laws applicable to the Company’s business, including the Cannabis Act or any such successor or related legislation.

3 REPORTING GOVERNANCE CONCERNS

  1. A Relevant Person should report a Governance Concern as soon as they have a reasonable suspicion or concern of a Governance Concern. A Relevant Person is not expected to investigate the matter personally before reporting it.
  2. This Policy should not be used to report any personal grievance. Any complaints about a Relevant Person’s own personal circumstances (for example an employment dispute) should be pursued with his/her line manager through the ordinary grievance channels.
  3. Any Relevant Person with a Governance Concern may submit their Governance Concern in writing, to the Chair of the Audit Committee.
  4. If a Relevant Person wishes to make a report, they should ensure that the report includes as much detail as possible regarding the Governance Concern(s) including name(s), dates, places, a description of events that took place, the individual’s perception of why the incident(s) are a violation of this Policy (i.e., the alleged law or policy contravened), and what action the individual recommends be taken. The Relevant Person is required to maintain confidentiality of this report and not discuss the report or the facts of the report unless required by law.
  5. 48North encourages Relevant Persons to raise any Governance Concerns internally rather than raising them outside the organisation. A Relevant Person will rarely need to make such external disclosures, however it is recognised that there may be certain situations in which a Relevant Person may need to contact outside authorities, such as a relevant regulator.
  6. The Governance Concerns, and any personal data included therein, will not be shared with any person other than the competent persons within 48North with responsibility for managing such Governance Concerns, investigating, and if necessary, implementing, the necessary corrective actions, together with the Audit Committee and, as the case may be, and the Company’s professional advisers.

4 CONFIDENTIALITY

  1. 48North recognises that a Relevant Person may be concerned about the consequences of reporting a Governance Concern. The aim of 48North through this policy is to encourage Relevant Persons to raise concerns in good faith. 48North will assist Relevant Persons in doing so.
  2. A Relevant Person may request that a report be handled as confidentially as possible under the circumstances, and the Company will handle all such reports with discretion and with due regard for the privacy of the reporting individual. There are however, certain circumstances where disclosure may be required and confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. To the extent any disclosure must be made, the Company will endeavour to only disclose the information necessary to further its investigation into the Governance Concerns.
  3. 48North does not encourage a Relevant Person to report Governance Concerns anonymously. Reporting anonymously makes it harder, for example, for investigations to be carried out and for any wrongdoing to be discovered and rectified. It is also then more difficult to establish whether any allegations are credible and have been made in good faith. A Relevant Person who is concerned about possible reprisals if their identity is revealed should inform the Chair of the Audit Committee, and appropriate measures may then be taken to preserve confidentiality.
  4. 48North will implement, and will ensure that any entities that may assist it in the implementation of this Policy will implement, all security measures required for ensuring the confidentiality of any personal data processed under this Policy.

5 NO ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES

  1. A Relevant Person may report a Governance Concern without fear of dismissal, other disciplinary action, retaliation or discrimination of any kind as a result of raising a Governance Concern in good faith.
  2. 48North will not tolerate any reprisal towards a Relevant Person as a result of raising a Governance Concern in good faith. 48North is committed to investigating and responding to any such allegations of victimisation thoroughly and decisively. Also, 48North will not tolerate any victimisation of a Relevant Person who provides assistance to the Audit Committee, management or any other person or group, including any governmental, regulatory or law enforcement body, investigating a Governance Concern.
  3. Where it is found that a Relevant Person has made a report maliciously, in bad faith, or with a view to personal gain, disciplinary action may be taken against the Relevant Person, up to and including termination without notice.

6 RESPONDING TO A REPORT OF A GOVERNANCE CONCERN

  1. Where a Governance Concern is reported in the first instance to the Chair of the Audit Committee, it will be reviewed as soon as possible by that person with the assistance and direction of whomever such person thinks appropriate in order to resolve the Governance Concern quickly and effectively. However, in some cases, it may consider it necessary, or appropriate, to request the Audit Committee to review, assess and investigate the Governance Concern.
  2. Once a Governance Concern is reported to the Audit Committee, it will be reviewed as soon as possible by the Audit Committee with the assistance and direction of whomever the Audit Committee thinks appropriate including, but not limited to, external legal counsel, and the Audit Committee or 48North, as the case may be, will implement such corrective measures and do such things in an expeditious manner as deemed necessary or desirable to address the Governance Concern.
  3. 48North will endeavour to conduct any investigation arising from a Governance Concern as quickly as possible. Any investigation shall require the co-operation of the Relevant Person involved. Each Relevant Person is expected as a condition of their engagement with the Company to participate in such investigation in good faith.
  4. When possible 48North will keep the Relevant Person informed of the progress in the investigation. A Relevant Person or any other witness involved in an investigation must should treat any information they receive as a result of any investigation as well as the fact of the investigation itself, as confidential.
  5. The Company reserves the right to take any interim steps necessary to ensure such Governance Concern is fully and properly investigated which may include assigning an administrative leave, changing reporting structure, etc.

7 RETENTION OF RECORDS

  1. 48North shall take appropriate measures to protect personal information it receives about anybody as a result of this Policy and will only keep such information for as long as necessary.
  2. The Audit Committee will retain all records relating to any Governance Concern or report of a retaliatory act and to the investigation of any such report for as long as necessary based upon the merits of the submission. The types of records to be retained by the Audit Committee will include records of all steps taken in connection with the investigation and the results of any such investigation. Such records will be held securely and confidentially by the Audit Committee.

8 COMMUNICATION OF THE POLICY

To ensure that all Relevant Persons are aware of the Policy, they will be advised that the Policy is available on 48North’s website for their review. The Policy will also be provided at the time of engagement for review and sign-off. All Relevant Persons will be informed whenever significant changes are made to this Policy. All Relevant Persons to whom this policy applies will be provided with a copy of this Policy to be signed upon receipt and will be subject to, and informed about, its importance.

9 REVIEW OF POLICY

48North may review and amend this Policy at any time. However, it is currently envisaged that the Audit Committee will review and evaluate this Policy on an annual basis to determine whether the Policy is effective in providing a suitable procedure to report violations or complaints regarding Governance Concerns.

10 PROCESSING RELATED RIGHTS

Nothing in this Policy is intended to dissuade or stop a Relevant Person from pursuing any other legal avenue of complaint or redress as reasonably necessary in the circumstances.
