On November 9, 2022, Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) and two of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries completed its previously announced disposition of substantially all of the Company's assets relating to its Canadian cannabis business, including the Company's cannabis processing plant located in Sherbrooke, Québec (the "Disposition"), pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of October 16, 2022, entered into with PurCann Pharma, Inc. (“Purchaser”).

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser paid the Company an aggregate purchase price of $5,150,000.

The description above is a summary of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 18, 2022.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and: (i) may be intended not as statements of fact but rather as a way of allocating risk among the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate; and (ii) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other dates as may be specified in the Purchase Agreement and are subject to more recent developments. Accordingly, any such representations and warranties should not be relied upon as characterizations of the actual state of facts or affairs on the date they were made or at any other time.

On November 9, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the disposition contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
