Relentless Resources Ltd.

Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of {$content}.10 for a period of five years. The Warrants will vest and become exercisable as to one-third upon the 20-day weighted average trading price of the Common Shares (the “Market Price“) equaling or exceeding {$content}.12, an additional one-third upon the Market Price equaling or exceeding {$content}.16 and a final one-third upon the Market Price equaling or exceeding {$content}.20.

The completion of the Private Placement is expected to occur on or about March 21, 2018, and may be completed in one or more tranches (the “Closing“). The Private Placement remains is subject to applicable regulatory approval, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV“).

Proceeds from the Private Placement, together with proceeds from the previously announced proposed rights offering (the “Rights Offering“) will be used to establish a presence of the Company in the Canadian cannabis sector by: (i) making investments and deposits in connection with letters of intent signed with strategic cannabis investment opportunities; and (ii) for working capital and general corporate purposes.
