TORONTO, Oct. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ - Liberty Health Sciences Inc. (CSE: LHS) (OTCQX: LHSIF) www.libertyhealthsciences.com (“Liberty” or the “Company”), a provider of high-quality cannabis, announced today that it is offering all holders of 12% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentureholders”) a 12-month extension to the original November 22, 2020 maturity date (the “Extension Option”) that were originally issued on November 22, 2017 (the “Debentures”).

The Debentures were originally issued pursuant to a private placement offering, which closed on November 22, 2017 for gross proceeds of US $12 million (the “Offering”). The proceeds of the Offering were used to finance the Company’s expansion of its Florida operation and increase the Company’s production and growing space. The Company repaid an aggregate principal amount of US $6 million in December 2019, and there is currently an aggregate principal amount of US $6 million outstanding.

Debentureholders who select the Extension Option will have the terms of their Debentures amended as follows:

(i)

the applicable per share conversion price at which the Debentures may be converted by the holders, in whole or in part, into common shares of the Company, will be reduced from CDN $2.00 to CDN $0.85;

(ii)

the interest rate will be increased from 12% to 13% per annum;

(iii)

the redemption price, being the price at which the Debentures may be redeemed for cash, will be reduced to 100% (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount to be redeemed) plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the date of any such redemption; and

(iv)

the maturity date of the Debentureholders will be extended to November 22, 2021.

Those Debenture holders who do not select the Extension Option or that make no selection by the applicable deadline of November 10, 2020 will have their Debentures repaid at the current maturity date of November 22, 2020 in accordance with their terms. The Company expects to repay those Debentures that are maturing and tendered for repayment on November 22, 2020 out of existing funds, available credit facilities or as a result of a concurrent issue of new debentures. The Extension Option is subject to the receipt of all applicable regulatory and stock exchange approvals.
