Investments In ASSOCIATES (CONTINUED)

 

(i)

TerrAscend Corp. (“TerrAscend”) is a publicly traded licensed producer under ACMPR. On December 8, 2017, the Company subscribed for 9,545,456 units of TerrAscend directly, and 9,545,456 units indirectly through its subsidiary Canopy Rivers, for $1.10 per unit. Each unit included one common share of TerrAscend and one common share purchase warrant. The warrants are exercisable until December 8, 2020 at $1.10 per common share. The Company has allocated the purchase price to the shares and warrants based on their relative fair values, in the amount of $13,460 and $7,540 respectively. On November 27, 2017, the Company acquired an additional 1,740,000 common shares of TerrAscend directly and 1,740,000 shares indirectly through its subsidiary Canopy Rivers under a block trade at a price of $1.00 per share.

Following these transactions, the Company directly and indirectly owns 24% of the issued and outstanding shares of TerrAscend and the Company has concluded it has significant influence over TerrAscend and will account for its investment in these common shares using the equity method. Costs of $38 have been capitalized to the cost of the investment.

The warrants represent a derivative financial instrument that is initially measured at fair value in other financial assets and subsequently remeasured to its fair value at the end of each reporting period with changes in fair value through profit or loss.

TerrAscend has agreed to sell the Company approximately 25% of its current production for a term of 2 years upon receiving its license to sell cannabis, renewal annually for an additional one-year term.

 

(ii)

Radicle Medical Marijuana Inc. (“Radicle”) is an ACMPR applicant. Canopy Rivers has entered into funding arrangements with Radicle and its affiliates whereby they have committed to invest $5,000 in the form of a convertible debenture and $5,000 in a repayable debenture and has also entered into a royalty agreement with Radicle. The debentures bear interest at 5%, payable quarterly in cash, and are due at the earlier of 24 months or the date Radicle receives a sales license and are secured against all of its assets. Assuming Radicle receives a sales license before maturity, the convertible debenture automatically converts into common shares and the repayable debenture will convert into the royalty interest. Under the royalty agreement, Canopy Rivers will receive a royalty for a term of 20 years. To date $5,000 has been advanced under the convertible debenture and $3,000 has been advanced under the repayable debenture.

The convertible debenture is convertible into 23.8% of the common shares and this interest, together with other rights provided under the agreements, give Canopy Rivers significant influence over the investee and Canopy Rivers is accounting for the investment using the equity method.

The repayable debenture and royalty agreement is being accounted for as one instrument and is classified as loans and receivables and being measured at amortized cost.

Canopy Growth also entered into an agreement with Radicle whereby they have committed to sell a specified portion of their output to Canopy Growth.
