4. Representations, Warranties and Agreements of Subscriber. In connection with the issuance of securities hereunder, Subscriber hereby makes the following representations, warranties and agreements and confirms the following understandings:

(a) The information that the Subscriber has furnished herein, including, without limitation, the information set forth in the Investor Questionnaire attached hereto as Annex II, which has been completed by the Subscriber and submitted herewith to the Corporation, and any other information furnished by the Subscriber to the Corporation regarding whether the Subscriber qualifies as (i) an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 under Regulation D (“Regulation D”) promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), which definition is set forth on Annex III attached hereto, and/or (ii) a “qualified purchaser” as that term is defined in Regulation A promulgated under the Act, is correct and complete as of the date of this Agreement and will be correct and complete on the date, if any, that the Corporation accepts this Subscription. Further, the Subscriber shall immediately notify the Corporation of any change in any statement made herein prior to the Subscriber’s receipt of the Corporation’s acceptance of this Subscription, including, without limitation, the Subscriber’s status as an “accredited investor” and/or “qualified purchaser.” The representations and warranties made by the Subscriber may be fully relied upon by the Corporation and by any investigating party relying on them.

(b) The Subscriber (i) is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 under Regulation D, which definition is set forth on Annex III attached hereto, or (ii) if the Subscriber is not an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 under Regulation D, the amount of Shares being purchased by the Subscriber does not exceed 10% of the greater of the Subscriber’s annual income or net worth (for natural persons), or 10% of the greater of the Subscriber’s annual revenue or net assets at fiscal year-end (for non-natural persons). The Subscriber agrees to provide to the Corporation any additional documentation the Corporation may reasonably request, including, in addition to the Investor Questionnaire any other documentation as may be required by the Corporation to form a reasonable basis that the Subscriber qualifies as an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 under Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

(c) The Subscriber has received a copy of the Offering Circular, has been given the opportunity to read and review it carefully, and has had an opportunity to question representatives of the Corporation and obtain such additional information concerning the Corporation as the Subscriber requested. All questions of the Subscriber have been satisfactorily answered prior to making this investment.

(d) The Subscriber has sufficient experience in financial and business matters to be capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of the Subscriber's investment, and to make an informed decision relating thereto; or the Subscriber has utilized the services of his, her or its financial advisor or other investment representative and together they have sufficient experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of the Subscriber's investment, and to make an informed decision relating thereto.

(e) The Subscriber has evaluated the risks of this investment in the Corporation, including those risks particularly described in the Offering Circular, and has determined that the investment is suitable for him, her or it. The Subscriber has adequate financial resources for an investment of this character, and at this time could bear a complete loss of his investment. The Subscriber understands that any projections or other forward-looking statements that were made in the Offering Circular are mere estimates and may not reflect the actual results of the Corporation’s operations. The Subscriber understands that the Use of Proceeds in the Offering Circular are estimates, are not binding, and are subject to the Corporation’s discretion, and may not reflect the actual use of proceeds by the Corporation of the funds they receive from this offering and from your investment.

(f) The Subscriber understands that the Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) on the ground that the issuance thereof is exempt under Regulation A of Section 3(b) of the Securities Act, and that reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the truth and accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties, and those of the other purchasers of Shares.

(g) The Subscriber understands that the Shares are not being registered under the securities laws of certain states on the basis that the issuance thereof is exempt as an offer and sale not involving a registerable public offering in such state, since the Shares are “covered securities” under the National Securities Market Improvement Act of 1996 (“NSMIA”). The Subscriber understands that reliance on such exemptions is predicated in part on the truth and accuracy of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties and those of other purchasers of Shares. The Subscriber covenants not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares unless such Shares have been registered under the applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from state registration is available.

(h) The Subscriber has no need for any liquidity in this investment and is able to bear the economic risk of his investment for an indefinite period of time. The Subscriber has been advised and is aware that: (a) there is no public market for the Shares and a public market for the Shares may not develop; (b) it may not be possible to liquidate the investment readily; and (c) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable state law and an exemption from registration for resale may not be available.

(i) All contacts and contracts between the Subscriber and the Corporation regarding the offer and sale to him or her of Shares have been made within the state indicated below subscriber’s signature on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement and the Subscriber is a resident of such state.

(j) The Subscriber has relied solely upon the Offering Circular, other material provided by the Corporation and independent investigations made by him or her or his or her representatives and advisors with respect to the Shares subscribed for herein, and no oral or written representations beyond the Offering Circular and other material provided by the Corporation have been made to the Subscriber or relied upon by the Subscriber by the Corporation, its representatives or assigns, or any other person or entity.

(k) The Subscriber agrees not to transfer or assign this subscription or any interest therein.

(l) The Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except as may be specifically provided herein, the Subscriber is not entitled to withdraw, terminate or revoke this subscription.

(m) If the Subscriber is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company or trust, it has been duly formed, is validly existing, has full power and authority to make this investment, and has not been formed for the specific purpose of investing in the Shares.

(n) The Subscriber meets any additional suitability standards and/or financial requirements that may be required in the jurisdiction in which he or she resides, or is purchasing in a fiduciary capacity for a person or account meeting such suitability standards and/or financial requirements, and is not a minor. The Subscriber has received a copy of the Offering Circular, has been given the opportunity to read the section of the Offering Circular entitled “Investor Eligibility Standards” and hereby agrees to comply with all requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and all other know-your-customer and anti-money-laundering laws and regulations.

(o) The Subscriber consents to, and agrees to be bound by all the terms of the Bylaws of the Corporation, including but not limited to, any restrictions on voting rights and/or any transfer restrictions contained in said Bylaws.

(p) The Subscriber’s knowledge and experience in financial and business matters are such that it is capable of evaluating the risks of making the investment contemplated hereby, including the risks regarding Federal Cannabis Laws, as described in Section 9 hereof, and the risk associated with the regulatory oversight of the Act and the Regulator, as described in Section 8 hereof.

DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE “GOOD DELIVERY” IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA, PROVIDED THAT IF THE CORPORATION QUALIFIES TO BE A “FOREIGN ISSUER” WITHIN THE MEANING OF REGULATION S, A NEW CERTIFICATE, BEARING NO LEGEND, DELIVERY OF WHICH WILL CONSTITUTE “GOOD DELIVERY”, MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CORPORATION UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE, A DULY EXECUTED DECLARATION, IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

6. Valuation. The Subscriber acknowledges that the price of the Shares was set by the Corporation on the basis of the Corporation’s internal valuation and no warranties are made as to value. The Subscriber further acknowledges that future offerings of securities by the Corporation may be made at lower valuations, with the result that the Subscriber’s investment will bear a lower valuation.

7. Indemnification. The representations, warranties and covenants made by Subscriber herein shall survive the closing of this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Corporation and its respective officers, directors and affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls the Corporation within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach of failure by Subscriber to comply with any covenant or agreement made by Subscriber herein or in any other document furnished by Subscriber to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.

Annex I

CERTAIN RISK FACTORS

Wolverine Partners Corp. d/b/a Gage Cannabis Co. (together with its direct and indirect controlled affiliates and related parties through services contracts and other affiliate relationship, collectively, the “Corporation”) operates in a new industry which is highly regulated, highly competitive and evolving rapidly. As such, new risks may emerge, and management may not be able to predict all such risks or be able to predict how such risks may result in actual results differing from the results contained in any forward-looking statements.

The Corporation’s businesses incur ongoing costs and obligations related to regulatory compliance. Failure to comply with regulations may result in additional costs for corrective measures, penalties or in restrictions of operations. In addition, changes in regulations, more vigorous enforcement thereof or other unanticipated events could require extensive changes to operations, increased compliance costs or give rise to material liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Corporation and, therefore, on the Corporation’s prospective returns. Further, the Corporation may be subject to a variety of claims and lawsuits. Adverse outcomes in some or all of these claims may result in significant monetary damages or injunctive relief that could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. The litigation and other claims are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. A material adverse impact on our financial statements also could occur for the period in which the effect of an unfavorable final outcome becomes probable and reasonably estimable.

The industry is subject to extensive controls and regulations, which may significantly affect the financial condition of market participants. The marketability of any product may be affected by numerous factors that are beyond the control of the Corporation and which cannot be predicted, such as changes to government regulations, including those relating to taxes and other government levies which may be imposed. Changes in government levies, including taxes, could reduce the Corporation’s earnings and could make future capital investments or the Corporation’s operations uneconomic. The industry is also subject to numerous legal challenges, which may significantly affect the financial condition of market participants and which cannot be reliably predicted.

Notwithstanding the permissive regulatory environment of medical cannabis at the state level, cannabis continues to be categorized as a Schedule 1 controlled substance under the United States Controlled Substances Act of 1970. As such, cannabis-related practices or activities, including without limitation, the cultivation, manufacture, importation, possession, use or distribution of cannabis, are illegal under United States federal law. Strict compliance with state laws with respect to cannabis will neither absolve the Corporation of liability under United States federal law, nor will it provide a defense to any federal proceeding which may be brought against the Corporation. Any such proceedings brought against the Corporation may adversely affect the Corporation’s operations and financial performance.

Because of the conflicting views between state legislatures and the federal government of the United States regarding cannabis, investments in cannabis businesses in the United States are subject to inconsistent legislation, regulation, and enforcement. Unless and until the United States Congress amends the United States Controlled Substances Act with respect to cannabis or the Drug Enforcement Agency reschedules or de-schedules cannabis (and as to the timing or scope of any such potential amendments there can be no assurance), there is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current federal law, which would adversely affect the current and future operations and investments of the Corporation in the United States.

As a result of the tension between state and federal law, there are a number of risks associated with the Corporation’s existing and future operations and investments in the United States.

On January 4, 2018, then-U.S. Attorney General Xxxx Xxxxxxxx formally rescinded the standing U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) federal policy guidance governing enforcement of marijuana laws, as set forth in a series of memos and guidance from 2009-2014, principally the memorandum authored in August 2013 by then Deputy Attorney General, Xxxxx Xxxx (the “Xxxx Memorandum”). The Xxxx Memorandum generally directed U.S. Attorneys not to enforce the federal marijuana laws against actors who are compliant with state laws, provided enumerated enforcement priorities were not implicated.

The rescission of the Xxxx Memorandum and other Obama-era prosecutorial guidance did not create a change in federal law as the Xxxx Memorandum was never legally binding; however, the revocation removed the DOJ’s guidance to U.S. Attorneys that state-regulated cannabis industries substantively in compliance with the Xxxx Memorandum’s guidelines should not be a prosecutorial priority.

The federal government of the United States has always reserved the right to enforce federal law regarding the sale and disbursement of medical or recreational marijuana, even if state law sanctioned such sale and disbursement. Although the rescission of the above memorandums does not necessarily indicate that marijuana industry prosecutions are now affirmatively a priority for the DOJ, there can be no assurance that the federal government will not enforce such laws in the future.

Additionally, there can be no assurance that state laws legalizing and regulating the sale and use of cannabis will not be repealed or overturned, or that local governmental authorities will not limit the applicability of state laws within their respective jurisdictions. It is also important to note that local and city ordinances may strictly limit and/or restrict the distribution of cannabis in a manner that could make it extremely difficult or impossible to transact business in the cannabis industry.

If the federal government begins to enforce federal laws relating to cannabis in states where the sale and use of cannabis is currently legal, or if existing state laws are repealed or curtailed, the Corporation’s businesses would be materially and adversely affected. Federal actions against any individual or entity engaged in the marijuana industry or a substantial repeal of marijuana related legislation could adversely affect the Corporation, its business and its investments.

The Corporation’s operations in the medical (and, if applicable, recreational) cannabis industry are likely illegal under the applicable federal laws of the United States and other applicable law. There can be no assurances the federal government of the United States or other jurisdictions will not seek to enforce the applicable laws against the Corporation. The consequences of such enforcement would be materially adverse to the Corporation and the Corporation’s business and could result in the forfeiture or seizure of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets.

The concepts of “medical cannabis” and “retail cannabis” do not exist under United States federal law because the U.S. Controlled Substances Act classifies “marijuana” as a Schedule I drug. Under United States federal law, a Schedule I drug or substance has a high potential for abuse, no accepted medical use in the United States, and a lack of accepted safety for the use of the drug under medical supervision. As such, cannabis-related practices or activities, including without limitation, the manufacture, importation, possession, use or distribution of cannabis remain illegal under United States federal law.

Although the Corporation’s activities are compliant with applicable United States state and local law, strict compliance with state and local laws with respect to cannabis may neither absolve the Corporation of liability under United States federal law, nor may it provide a defense to any federal proceeding which may be brought against the Corporation. Any such proceedings brought against the Corporation may adversely affect the Corporation’s operations and financial performance.

Non-US citizen Subscribers in a state-compliance cannabis company in the United States may experience burdensome immigration scrutiny and non-compliance with US federal law may impose material risks on owners, managers, and employees without US citizenship.

Violations of any United States federal laws and regulations could result in significant fines, penalties, administrative sanctions, convictions or settlements arising from civil proceedings conducted by either the United States federal government or private citizens, or criminal charges, including, but not limited to, disgorgement of profits, cessation of business activities or divestiture.

This could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation, including reputations and ability to conduct business, their holding (directly or indirectly) of medical cannabis licenses in the United States, the listing of their securities on various stock exchanges, their financial position, operating results, profitability or liquidity or the market price of any publicly traded shares.

In addition, it is difficult for the Corporation to estimate the time or resources that would be needed for the investigation of any such matters or its final resolution because, in part, the time and resources that may be needed are dependent on the nature and extent of any information requested by the applicable authorities involved, and such time or resources could be substantial.

There is still uncertainty surrounding the Xxxxx Administration and any acting or future Attorney General and their influence and policies in opposition to the cannabis industry as a whole.

Many factors could cause the Corporation’s actual results, performances and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements and forward-looking information, including without limitation, the following factors:

The activities of the Corporation are subject to evolving regulation that is subject to changes by governmental authorities in Canada, the U.S. and internationally;

Third parties with which the Corporation does business, including banks and other financial intermediaries, may perceive that they are exposed to legal and reputational risk because of the Corporation’s cannabis business activities;

The Corporation’s ability to distribute returns generated from operations and investments in the U.S. may be limited by anti-money laundering laws, capital requirements, and long-term tax efficiencies;

Under Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code, normal business expenses incurred in the business of selling marijuana and its derivatives are not deductible in calculating income tax liability. Therefore, certain of the Corporation’s affiliates will be precluded from claiming certain deductions otherwise available to non-marijuana businesses. As a result, an otherwise profitable, business may in fact operate at a loss after taking into account its income tax expenses. There is no certainty that the Corporation will not be subject to 280E in the future, and accordingly, there is no certainty that the impact that 280E has on the Corporation’s margins will ever be reduced;

Federal prohibitions result in marijuana businesses being potentially restricted from accessing the U.S. federal banking system, and the Corporation may have difficulty depositing funds in federally insured and licensed banking institutions. This may lead to further related issues, such as the potential that a bank will freeze the Corporation’s accounts and risks associated with uninsured deposit accounts. There is no certainty that Corporation will be able to maintain its existing accounts or obtain new accounts in the future; and

The Corporation is subject to applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations.

The Corporation is reliant on cultivation licenses to produce medical cannabis products.

The Corporation is dependent upon its licenses for its ability to grow, store and sell medical cannabis and other products derived therefrom in the jurisdictions where licensing is required and such licenses are subject to ongoing compliance, reporting requirements and renewal.

The Corporation’s ability to grow, store and sell cannabis for medical purposes is dependent on its licenses. The licenses are subject to ongoing compliance, reporting requirements and renewal. Although the Corporation believes it will meet the requirements for future renewals of its licenses, there can be no guarantee that government bodies will renew any applicable license or, if renewed, that such licenses will be renewed on the same or similar terms or that regulatory authorities will not revoke any licenses.

Should the Corporation fail to comply with the requirements of an applicable license or should a regulatory authority not renew a license when required, or renew an applicable license on different terms or revoke a license, there would be a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Corporation is subject to changes in Michigan, United States and international laws, regulations and guidelines which could adversely affect the Corporation’s future business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Corporation’s operations will be subject to various laws, regulations and guidelines relating to the manufacture, management, packaging/labelling, advertising, sale, transportation, storage and disposal of medical cannabis but also including laws and regulations relating to drugs, controlled substances, health and safety, the conduct of operations and the protection of the environment.

Changes to such laws, regulations and guidelines due to matters beyond the control of the Corporation may cause material adverse effects business, financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation.
