rising interest rates; and tax risks. The Company has based these forward-looking statements on factors and assumptions about future events and financial trends that it believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based upon assumptions that management believes are reasonable based on information currently available to management, there can be no assurance that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements necessarily involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control, which may cause the Company's or the industry's actual results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities in future periods to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the factors contained in the Company's filings with securities regulators, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements, as forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties and should not be read as guarantees of future results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities. The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

VILLAGE FARMS INTERNATIONAL, INC. 
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 
(In thousands of United States dollars, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted) 
1.BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
Nature of Business
Village Farms International, Inc. (“VFF” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a 
corporation existing under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. VFF’s principal operating subsidiaries as of March 31, 2023 
are Village Farms Canada Limited Partnership, Village Farms, L.P., Pure Sunfarms Corp. (“Pure Sunfarms”), and Balanced 
Health Botanicals, LLC (“Balanced Health”). VFF also owns a 70% interest in Rose LifeScience Inc. (“Rose”) and an 85% 
interest in Leli Holland B.V. ("Leli").
The address of the registered office of VFF is 4700-80th Street, Delta, British Columbia, Canada, V4K 3N3.   
The Company’s shares are listed on Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “VFF”.
Village Farms owns and operates sophisticated, highly intensive agricultural greenhouse facilities in British Columbia and 
Texas, where it produces, markets and sells premium-quality tomatoes, bell peppers, and cucumbers. Its wholly owned 
subsidiary, Pure Sunfarms, is a vertically integrated licensed producer and supplier of cannabis products to be sold to other 
licensed providers and provincial governments across Canada and internationally. Through its 70% ownership of Rose, the 
Company has a substantial presence in the Province of Quebec as a cannabis supplier, producer and commercialization expert. 
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Balanced Health, develops and sells high-quality cannabidiol (“CBD”) based 
products including ingestible, edible and topical applications.  
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with 
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the 
instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and 
footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. 
GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of 
December 31, 2022 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date. Because certain information and 
footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in 
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 
contained in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2022 Form 10-K”). In management’s opinion, all normal 
and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash 
flows for the periods presented have been included. When necessary, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to 
conform with the current period presentation. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, share-based compensation has been 
reclassified to selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and 
Comprehensive Loss to conform with the current period presentation. Interim period operating results do not necessarily 
indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The Company believes that the 
disclosures made in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading.
Principals of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Village Farms International, Inc. and its subsidiaries 
and include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, 
entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have 
been eliminated in consolidation. Other parties’ interests in entities that the Company consolidates are reported as non-
controlling interests within equity, except for mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests, which are recorded within other 
liabilities. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is reported as a separate line item below net income or 
loss. The Company applies the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities for which it does not have a 
controlling financial interest, but over which it has the ability to exert significant influence. For equity investees in which the 
Company has an undivided interest in the assets, liabilities and profits or losses of an unconsolidated entity, but does not 
exercise control over the entity, the Company consolidates its proportional interest in the accounts of the entity. 
Translations of Foreign Currencies
The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. 
dollars at period-end exchange rates, with resulting translation gains or losses included within other comprehensive income or 
loss. Revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange during the applicable period. 
Substantially all of the Company’s foreign operations use their local currency as their functional currency. For foreign 
operations for which the local currency is not the functional currency, the operation’s non-monetary assets are remeasured into 
U.S. dollars at historical exchange rates. All other accounts are remeasured at current exchange rates. Gains or losses from 
6
VILLAGE FARMS INTERNATIONAL, INC. 
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements 
(In thousands of United States dollars, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted) 
remeasurement are included in other income or expense, net. Currency gains or losses resulting from transactions executed in 
currencies other than the functional currency are included in other income or expense, net.
General Economic, Regulatory and Market Conditions
The Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, direct and indirect negative effects on its business and 
operations from negative economic, regulatory and market conditions, including recent inflationary effects on fuel prices, labor 
and materials costs, rising interest rates, potential recessionary impacts and supply chain disruptions that could negatively affect 
demand for new projects and/or delay existing project timing or cause increased project costs. The extent to which general 
economic, regulatory and market conditions could affect the Company’s business, operations and financial results is uncertain as 
it will depend upon numerous evolving factors that management may not be able to accurately predict, and, therefore, any future 
impacts on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations cannot be quantified or predicted with 
specificity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
No accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the 
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Quarterly Assessment for Indicators of Impairment
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company considered qualitative factors in assessing for impairment indicators for the Company’s US and Canadian cannabis segments. As part of this assessment, the Company considered both external and internal factors, including overall financial performance and outlook. At March 31, 2023, the Company concluded that no impairment indicators existed as no events or circumstances occurred that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the reporting units to be below their carrying amounts.

On March 13, 2023, the Company entered into a Note Modification Agreement (the “Modification”) for its line of credit ("Operating Loan"). The Modification eliminated the use of LIBOR as a basis to determine certain interest rates and transitioned to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for such purposes.  This Modification did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or its financial position. The Company’s Operating Loan had $4,000 amount drawn on the facility as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.             
The Company has two Pure Sunfarms Term Loans (“PSF Term Loans”) that had a maturity in February 2024.  The PSF Term Loans were amended in May 2023 to, among other changes, extend the maturity date of the PSF Term Loans to February 2026.  The other terms and conditions of the PSF Term Loans remain substantially the same.  
The carrying value of the assets and securities pledged as collateral for the FCC Loan as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $123,248 and $113,159, respectively.
The carrying value of the assets pledged as collateral for the Operating Loan as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $27,142 and $26,666, respectively.
The Pure Sunfarms line of credit had $0 and $3,529 outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Pure Sunfarms had an outstanding letter of credit issued to BC Hydro against the revolving line of credit of $C5,145.
The Company is required to comply with financial covenants, measured either quarterly or annually depending on the covenant. The Company was in compliance with all of its credit facility covenants as of March 31, 2023. 
The weighted average annual interest rate on short-term borrowings as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was 9.45% and 9.12%, respectively.     
Accrued interest payable on the Credit Facilities and loans as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $345 and $398, respectively, and these amounts are included in accrued liabilities in the Condensed Statements of Financial Position.

6.    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, note receivables, investments, trade 
payables, accrued liabilities, lease liabilities, note payables and debt. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable, trade payables, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying value of lease liabilities, notes payable, and debt approximate their fair values due to insignificant changes in credit risk. For its investments, the Company has selected the practicability election to fair value measurement, under which the investment is measured at cost, less impairment, plus or minus observable price changes of an identical or similar investment.
7.     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES                                                                                                                           
One of the Company’s employees is related to a member of the Company’s executive management team and received approximately $30 and $24 in salary and benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. 
8.     INCOME TAXES 
The Company has recorded a provision for income taxes of $634 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared with a recovery of income taxes of $1,666 for the same period last year.
The Company’s income tax provision is based on management’s estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The tax provision (benefit) in any period will be affected by, among other things, permanent, as well as temporary, differences in the deductibility of certain items, changes in the valuation allowance related to net deferred tax assets, in addition to changes in tax legislation. As a result, the Company may experience significant fluctuations in the effective book tax rate (that is, tax expense divided by pre-tax book income) from period to period.
In order to fully utilize the net deferred tax assets, the Company will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years. The Company analyzed all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax assets. The recognition of the net deferred tax assets and related tax benefits is based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available and current and anticipated customers, contracts, and product introductions, as well as historical operating results and certain tax planning strategies.
Based on the analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company has concluded that it does not have the ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the necessary period to utilize the entire benefit for the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company established a valuation allowance of $31,091 and $30,419 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of its deferred tax assets may be deemed appropriate in the future. If the Company incurs future losses, it may be necessary to record additional valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets recognized as of March 31, 2023.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s net deferred tax assets totaled approximately $4,201 and were primarily derived from net operating loss carryforwards.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with 
our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022
 (our "Annual Report on Form 10-K"). This 
discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements about our plans and expectations of what may happen in the future. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated by our forward-looking statements. We encourage you to review the risks and uncertainties described in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied by our forward-looking statements contained in this report. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this management’s discussion and analysis, and we do not intend, and do not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW 
Village Farms International, Inc. (“VFF”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “Village Farms”, “we” “us” or 
“our”) is a corporation existing under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries are Village Farms Canada LP, Village Farms LP, Pure Sunfarms Corp (“Pure Sunfarms”), Balanced Health Botanicals, LLC (“Balanced Health”), Rose LifeScience Inc. ("Rose LifeScience” or “Rose”) and VF Clean Energy, Inc. (“VFCE”). 
The Company’s vision is to be recognized as an international leader in consumer products developed from plants, whereby 
we produce and market value-added products that are consistently preferred by consumers. To do so, we leverage decades of cultivation expertise, investment, and experience in fresh produce across profitable, high growth plant-based opportunities.
In Canada, we converted two produce facilities to grow cannabis for the Canadian legal adult use (recreational) market. Our 
focus for our Canadian Cannabis segment is to produce high quality cannabis, leveraging our low-cost production to provide preferred products at an attractive price that address the largest consumer segments in the market. This market positioning, combined with our cultivation expertise, has enabled us to evolve into the best-selling Canadian licensed producer (“LP”) of dried flower products, the second best-selling Canadian producer overall and one of the few consistently adjusted EBITDA positive Canadian LPs.
Additionally, through organic growth, acquisitions and/or exports, we have a strategy to participate in other international 
markets where cannabis attains legal status. In September 2021, our Canadian Cannabis business began exporting cannabis products to Australia for that country’s medical market. In March 2022, our Canadian Cannabis business received European Union Good Manufacturing Practice (“EU GMP”) certification for Pure Sunfarms’ 1.1 million square foot Delta 3 cannabis facility located in Delta, British Columbia (“B.C.”) which permits Pure Sunfarms to export EU GMP-certified medical cannabis to importers and distributors in international markets that require EU GMP certification.  In late 2022, Pure Sunfarms commenced exports to Israel and in 2023, Pure Sunfarms began exporting cannabis products to Germany for the medical markets in those countries. As a result of the typically higher margins in international medical markets, we expect international expansion should enhance our profitability while expanding our brand and experience into emerging legal cannabis markets. We also have one of ten licenses to cultivate cannabis legally in the Netherlands under that country’s Closed Supply Chain Experiment program through our 85% ownership of Leli Holland.
Balanced Health, our industry-leading cannabinoid business, extends our cannabis portfolio into cannabidiol (“CBD”) 
consumer products, which are being sold in the United States.
We also operate a large, well-established produce business (primarily tomatoes) under the Village Farms Fresh (“VF Fresh”) 
brand which sells into food and mass retail stores. We own and operate produce cultivation assets in Texas and Delta, B.C. and source produce from our growing partners, in Mexico and Canada. Our intention is to use our assets, expertise and experience (across cannabis, CBD and produce) to participate in the U.S. cannabis market subject to compliance with applicable US federal and state laws and stock exchange rules.
Our Operating Segments
Canadian Cannabis Segment
Our Canadian Cannabis segment is composed of Pure Sunfarms ("PSF", which is wholly owned) and Rose LifeScience 
(“Rose”, which is 70% owned).
Pure Sunfarms is one of the single largest cannabis growing operations in the world, one of the lowest-cost greenhouse 
producers and is the top selling dried flower brand in Canada. PSF leverages our 30 years of experience as a vertically integrated greenhouse grower for the high growth cannabis opportunity in Canada with commercial distribution in ten Canadian provinces and 
14
territories that represent 98% of total Canadian legal recreational cannabis sales. Our long-term objective for PSF is to be the leading low-cost, high-quality cannabis producer and brand in Canada. 
Rose is one of the top-selling licensed producers of cannabis in the Province of Quebec, as well as a prominent cannabis 
products commercialization expert in Quebec, acting as the exclusive, direct-to-retail sales, marketing and distribution entity for some of the best-known brands in Canada, as well as Quebec-based micro and craft growers.
U.S. Cannabis Segment
Our U.S. Cannabis segment is composed of wholly owned Balanced Health.
Balanced Health is one of the leading cannabinoid brands and e-commerce platforms in the United States. Balanced Health develops and sells high-quality CBD-based health and wellness products, distributing their diverse portfolio of consumer products through retail storefronts and its top-ranked e-commerce platform, CBDistillery™.
Produce Segment
Our Produce segment is composed of VF Fresh, which currently consists of Village Farms LP and Village Farms Canada.
Through VF Fresh, we grow, market and distribute premium-quality, greenhouse-grown produce in North America. These 
premium products are grown in sophisticated, highly intensive agricultural greenhouse facilities located in British Columbia and Texas. We also market and distribute premium tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers produced under exclusive arrangements from our greenhouse supply partners located primarily in Mexico, B.C. and Ontario. We primarily market and distribute under our Village Farms® brand name to retail supermarkets and dedicated fresh food distribution companies throughout the United States and Canada.
Energy Segment
Our Energy segment is composed of wholly owned VF Clean Energy Inc. (“VFCE”), which has partnered with Mas Energy 
for the Delta RNG Project based on VFCE’s 20-year contract (plus five-year option) with the City of Vancouver to capture landfill gas at the Delta, B.C. landfill site (the "Delta RNG Project"). The Delta RNG Project will convert the VFCE’s previous landfill gas-to-electricity business into a state-of-the-art landfill gas to high-demand renewable natural gas ("RNG") facility. Mas Energy intends to sell the renewable natural gas and VFCE will receive a portion of the revenue in the form of a royalty. The facility will also provide food-grade CO2 that can be used in both our cannabis and produce growing operations in Delta. Mas Energy is in process of completing the facility and we expect the Delta RNG Project to begin operations later this year.
Recent Developments and Updates
Canadian Cannabis Recent Developments and Updates 
In April 2023, Rose LifeScience entered into an agreement pursuant to which it has agreed to provide supply management and distribution services to Hexo in Quebec commencing in April 2023 and continuing through the later of June 30, 2023 or until the closing of the acquisition of Hexo by Tilray. Currently Rose LifeScience already provides similar services, in Quebec, to Tilray under a separate agreement. Under the terms of the new agreement, upon the completion of the acquisition of Hexo, by Tilray, it is expected that all of Tilray’s Quebec sales will be managed, for a distribution fee, by Rose LifeScience. 
During the first quarter of 2023, according to independent third-party sources (amalgamated to cover all provinces), Village Farms’ Canadian Cannabis remains the number two ranked by market share position across all product categories in Canada and has maintained its leading market share in dried flower category in Canada. Based on these sources, Province of Quebec-focused Rose LifeScience continues to rank number two by market share position in Quebec for the first quarter of 2023.
Canadian Cannabis shipped its initial order of branded flower into the Germany medicinal market (via Pure Sunfarms) late in the first quarter of 2023. The bulk flower has cleared testing and is being packaged and distributed to German pharmacies. It is now available for purchase via scripts.
U.S. Cannabis Recent Developments and Updates
Balanced Health continues to launch incremental products under its successful 2022 new Synergy+ line. It was the first CBD company to advertise on Twitter under its recent new cannabis policy.
The Company filed an application for a Texas Medicinal license in late April 2023. The Company is hopeful that its application will be awarded the highest or one of the highest marks, putting it in a good position, should the State of Texas award additional medicinal cannabis licenses. If awarded, the Company plans to work with the listing authorities to structure an acceptable ownership structure.

Delta RNG Project Update
Construction is nearing completion and we expect an operational start up in mid-2023.
VF Fresh (Produce)
The Company has commenced the sale process of its Monahans (Permian Basin, Texas) greenhouse facility and is expecting initial indications of interest in the second quarter of 2023.

Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect our business performance. Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s 70% interest in Rose LifeScience since acquisition.
We caution that our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 may not be indicative of our 
future performance.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA 
may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect our business performance. Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s 70% interest in Rose LifeScience.
PRODUCE SEGMENT RESULTS – VF FRESH
The produce segment, VF Fresh, currently consists of Village Farms LP and Village Farms Canada LP. VF Fresh’s 
comparative analysis are based on the consolidated results of Village Farms LP and Village Farms Canada LP for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Sales
VF Fresh sales for three months ended March 31, 2023 were $34,567 as compared to $41,349 for the three months ended 
March 31, 2022. The decrease in sales of ($6,782) or 16% was primarily due to a decrease in supply partner revenues of ($4,302). The decrease in supply partner revenues is due to a decrease of (29%) in product volume, the decrease in volume is due to the loss of two large supply partner growers in late 2022. The segment's own greenhouse grown revenues increased 3.2% due to a 27% increase in our selling price, mostly offset by a decrease of 19% in pounds produced. The decrease of 19% in production pounds is due to a 15% decrease in planting area, of higher yielding commodity items.  The supply partner revenue decrease is due to lower volumes as follows: an (18%) decrease in tomato pounds sold, a (57%) decrease in pepper pounds sold, a (30%) decrease in cucumber pieces and a 50% increase in mini cucumber pounds. 
The average selling price for all produce sold, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, versus the three months ended 
March 31, 2022, increased as follows: all tomatoes increased 13%, peppers increased 10%, cucumbers increased 77% and mini 
18
cucumbers increased 66%. The price increases are due to both higher market pricing in early 2023 versus early 2022, as well as a higher percentage of VF Fresh sales going direct to retail accounts versus the first quarter of 2022.
Cost of Sales
VF Fresh cost of sales for three months ended March 31, 2023, decreased by ($11,568) or 25% to $33,952 as compared to 
$45,520 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in supply partner cost of ($4,845), and lower costs at our own Texas greenhouses of ($3,785) and freight expense of ($3,027). The decrease in the Texas greenhouses is primarily due to increased production volumes at the Marfa 1 and Fort Davis facilities, as well as a reduction of the growing area in Permian Basin.  The decrease in supply partner cost is related to the 29% decrease in pounds received. The decrease in freight cost is from an increase in available drivers and decrease in fuel. 
Gross Margin
The gross margin for VF Fresh was $615 for three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to ($4,171) for the three 
months ended March 31, 2022. The gross profit percentage was 1.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to (10%) for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in gross profit is due to higher pricing in 2023 versus the same period in 2022, lower per pound costs from our Texas facilities, in 2023 versus 2022, due to higher yields and lower freight costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses 
VF Fresh selling, general and administrative expenses for three months ended March 31, 2023 were $2,916 or 8% of sales as 
compared to $3,140 or 8% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Net loss
VF Fresh’s net loss for three months ended March 31, 2023 was ($2,619) as compared to ($5,626) for the three months ended 
March 31, 2022. The decrease in net loss for the first quarter of 2023 as compared to the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to the higher gross margin incurred in 2023, which was offset by selling, general and administrative expense in both periods.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Adjusted EBITDA for VF Fresh was ($995) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to ($6,201) for the 
three months ended March 31, 2022. The higher Adjusted EBITDA was due to a 13% increase in the average selling price of tomatoes, a decrease in our own per pound cost and a decrease in freight costs when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.
CANNABIS SEGMENT RESULTS - CANADA
The Canadian Cannabis segment currently consists of Pure Sunfarms and Rose LifeScience. The comparative analysis for 
Canadian Cannabis is based on the consolidated results of Pure Sunfarms and Rose LifeScience for the three months ended March 31, 
2023 and 2022. 
Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Sales
Canadian Cannabis net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $25,112 as compared to $21,769 for the three 
months ended March 31, 2022. The increase between comparable quarters was driven by a 40% increase in branded sales partially offset by a (50%) decrease in non-branded sales, partially offset by an unfavorable impact of exchange rate fluctuations. The 40% increase in branded sales was attained through increased sales in Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta as well as to Rose’s strengthening position in Quebec. Canadian Cannabis branded revenue growth was primarily in the small format, large format-single and pre-rolls offset by a decrease in milled and cannabis derivative products for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. The (50%) decrease in non-branded sales was primarily due to an oversupplied LP market, which has resulted in continuing desperation pricing by some LPs, and the Company has chosen not to focus on non-branded sales at current pricing as it expects the lower quality supply glut to mitigate as the year progresses. International sales increased by $1,514, or 875%, to $1,687 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 versus $173 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 the increase was primarily driven by incremental sales to Australia.
Canadian Cannabis continues to pay a burdensome excise tax on its branded sales (provincial sales).  For the three months 
ended March 31, 2023, the Company paid $13,758 (C$18,602) versus the prior year March 31, 2022 figure of $8,970 (C$11,365) or $4,788 (C$7,237) more due to higher kilograms sold in this provincial (branded) channel in the first quarter of 2023 versus the first quarter of 2022. This expenditure is our single largest cost of participating in the adult-use market in Canada.   
 For the three months ended March 31, 2023, 87% of revenue was generated from branded flower, inclusive of pre-rolls, 4% 
of revenue from cannabis derivative products and 9% from non-branded sales as compared to 67% of revenue from branded flower, 
19
inclusive of pre-rolls, 8% from cannabis derivative products and 25% from non-branded sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Cost of Sales
Canadian Cannabis cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $16,658 as compared to $12,259 for the 
three months ended March 31, 2022. The period-over-period cost of sales increase of ($4,399) or (36%) was primarily due to increases in kilograms produced, packaged and sold, of branded products in Q1 2023 as compared to Q1 2022. The Q1 2022 cost of sales included a positive adjustment (reduction in cost of sales) of $2,050 from the revaluation of Pure Sunfarms' inventory to fair value at acquisition date of November 2, 2020, as such the non-GAAP but actual economic increase was ($2,349) or (16%). 
Gross Margin
Canadian Cannabis gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased ($1,056) to $8,454, or a 34% gross 
margin, in comparison to $9,510, or a 44% gross margin, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in gross margin between comparable periods was due to the inclusion of a purchase price inventory adjustment in the three months ended March 31, 2022. See adjusted gross margin below. 
Adjusted Gross Margin
Adjusted gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023, which excludes the purchase price inventory adjustment 
which reduced cost of sales by $2,050 (as described in "—Cost of Sales" above), was $7,460, for a 34% gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022. 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Canadian Cannabis selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased $452 
to $6,848 or 27% of sales compared to $7,300 or 34% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The SG&A slightly decreased while generating more sales such that SG&A as a percentage of revenue decreased. 
Net (Loss) Income  
Canadian Cannabis net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was ($105) compared to net income of $987 for the 
three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in net income between periods was primarily due to a lower gross margin and a higher corporate income tax provision of ($499) versus the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $3,910 and $2,104, respectively. The 
increase in Adjusted EBITDA between periods was primarily due to higher sales but at a lower margin being offset by lower SG&A expenditures on 2023 versus 2022. See the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income in “Non-GAAP Measures—Reconciliation of Net Earnings to Adjusted EBITDA”.
CANNABIS SEGMENT RESULTS – UNITED STATES
The U.S. Cannabis segment currently consists of Balanced Health. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, 
U.S. Cannabis financial results are based on the consolidated results of Balanced Health. VF Hemp is a joint venture, and its results are included in “Loss from Equity Method Investments” for the three months ended March 31, 2022. 
20
Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Sales 
U.S. Cannabis net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $4,977 as compared to $7,043 for the three months 
ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of (29%). The decrease was primarily due to lower direct-to-consumer sales, due to the proliferation of hemp derived cannabinoid sales. All of our sales were generated in the United States, with gross sales composed of 82% e-commerce sales, 13% retail sales, 6% shipping income and 1% bulk sales. In addition, 2023 sales included a (2%) loyalty revenue deferral as loyalty program customers generate loyalty points that may be used in the future when purchasing Balanced Health products, versus loyalty revenue, of $370, in the first quarter of 2022 due to an excess loyalty program accrual in prior periods.
Cost of Sales
U.S. Cannabis cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $1,739 compared to $2,331 for the three months 
ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in cost of sales of 25% is primarily due to lower volumes sold in 2023 versus 2022, as margins on most products remained constant between years. 
Gross Margin
U.S Cannabis gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased ($1,474) to $3,238, or a 65% gross margin, 
in comparison to $4,712, or a 67% gross margin, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
U.S. Cannabis selling general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $3,617 as 
compared to $4,391 for the three months ended March 31, 2022.  The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses when compared to the same prior year period is due to reductions in headcount, contract renegotiation and more efficient marketing and brand spending.
Net (Loss) Income
U.S. Cannabis net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was ($376) as compared to net income of $269 for the 
three months ended March 31, 2022 driven by a lower gross margin in 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA
U.S. Cannabis adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was ($151) as compared to $580 for the three 
months ended March 31, 2022 due to a lower gross margin. See the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income in “Non-GAAP Measures—Reconciliation of Net Earnings to Adjusted EBITDA”.
Liquidity and Capital Resources 
Capital Resources 
    As at March 31, 2023, we had $34,884 in cash and $80,275 of working capital, and as at December 31, 2022, we had $21,676 
in cash and $60,769 of working capital. The increase was primarily due to cash proceeds from the January 2023 Equity Offering (as 
defined below). We believe that our existing cash, together with cash generated from our operating activities, and the remaining 
availability under our Operating Loan (as defined below), and our PSF revolving line of credit, and future availability under our ATM 
(as defined below), will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our working capital needs, repayments of long-term debt, future 
contractual obligations and planned capital expenditures for the next 12 months. In addition, we may obtain additional liquidity from 
potential equity or debt financing in the future. We intend to use our cash on hand for daily operational funding requirements.

The Company’s borrowings under the FCC Term Loan (as defined below) and the Operating Loan (as defined below) 
(collectively the “Credit Facilities”) are subject to certain positive and negative covenants, including debt ratios, and the Company is required to maintain certain minimum working capital. As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants under its Credit Facilities. Prior to December 31, 2022, the Company received a waiver from FCC for the annual test for one of its financial covenants under our FCC Term Loan. FCC measures our financial covenants once a year on the last calendar day of the year and our next annual testing date will be on December 31, 2023. We can provide no assurance that we will be in compliance, or receive a waiver, for any non-compliance as of the next annual testing date.  
21
Accrued interest payable on the Credit Facilities and Pure Sunfarms Loans as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was 
$345 and $398, respectively. These amounts are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
FCC Term Loan
The Company has a term loan financing agreement with Farm Credit Canada, a Canadian creditor (the “FCC Term Loan”). 
The non-revolving variable rate term loan has a maturity date of April 1, 2025 and a balance of $24,264 on March 31, 2023 and $24,755 on December 31, 2022. The outstanding balance is repayable by way of monthly installments of principal and interest, with the balance and any accrued interest to be paid in full on April 1, 2025. As of March 31, 2023, borrowings under the FCC Term Loan agreement were subject to an interest rate of 8.25% per annum.
As collateral for the FCC Term Loan, the Company has provided promissory notes, a first mortgage on the VFF-owned Delta 
1 and Texas greenhouse facilities, and general security agreements over its assets.

Operating Loan
The Company has a revolving line of credit agreement with a Canadian chartered bank (the "Operating Loan"). On March 13, 
2023, the Company entered into a Note Modification Agreement (the “Modification”) to the Operating Loan. The Modification eliminated the use of LIBOR as a basis to determine certain interest rates under the Operating Loan and transitioned to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for such purposes. The Company does not expect the Modification to materially change the amount of interest payable under the Operating Loan. The Operating Loan is subject to margin requirements stipulated by the lender. The Operating Loan had an outstanding balance of $4,000 and future availability of $6,000 on March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
As collateral for the Operating Loan, the Company has provided promissory notes and a first priority security interest over its 
accounts receivable and inventory. In addition, the Company has granted full recourse guarantees and security therein. The carrying value of the assets pledged as collateral as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $27,142 and $26,666, respectively.
Pure Sunfarms Loans
Pure Sunfarms has a revolving line of credit (the “PSF Revolving Line of Credit”), a non-revolving credit facility (the “PSF 
Non-Revolving Facility”), and a term loan (the “PSF Term Loan” and collectively, with the PSF Revolving Line of Credit and the PSF Non-Revolving Facility, the “PSF Loans”) with three Canadian chartered banks. The PSF Loans were extended, subsequent to period end, from a maturity date of February 7, 2024 to February 7, 2026 by the syndicate lenders under the same terms, conditions and covenants as the original PSF Loans maturing on February 7, 2024. Due to the extension the classification of the PSF Loans on March 31, 2023 remains the same as December 31, 2022. 
The PSF Revolving Line of Credit had an outstanding balance of C$0 as of March 31, 2023 and C$4,745 as of December 31, 
2022. Pure Sunfarms had an outstanding letter of credit issued to BC Hydro against the PSF Revolving Line of Credit of C$4,145 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The PSF Non-Revolving Facility is secured by the Delta 2 and Delta 3 greenhouse facilities and contains customary financial 
and restrictive covenants. The other terms and conditions of the PSF Non-Revolving Facility remain substantially the same. As of March 31, 2023, Pure Sunfarms was in compliance with these financial covenants. The outstanding amount on the PSF Non-Revolving Facility was C$12,507 on March 31, 2023 and C$13,007 on December 31, 2022.

Equity Offerings
On January 30, 2023, the Company issued and sold 18,350,000 Common Shares under a registered direct equity offering, at a 
price of $1.35 per share, resulting in net proceeds for approximately $23,300 after deducting commissions and offering expenses (the "January 2023 Equity Offering"). As part of the January 2023 Equity Offering the Company also issued 18,350,000 Common Warrants at an exercise price of $1.65 per share. The Common Warrants cannot be exercised until after July 30, 2023, and expire on July 30, 2028.

The operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted of $($1,384) in changes in non-cash working capital items and ($2,284) in changes before non-cash working capital items, while operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 consisted of ($5,091) in changes in non-cash working capital items and ($4,546) in changes before non-cash working capital items. The improvement in changes before non-cash working capital items for 2023 as compared to 2022 was primarily due to a lower net loss from VF Fresh, partially offset by slightly lower net income from our Canadian Cannabis and U.S. Cannabis businesses.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, cash flows used in investing activities were ($1,076) and ($8,705), 
respectively. The investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted of ($1,076) invested in capital expenditures to support our VF Fresh and Canadian and U.S. cannabis operations. The investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 consists of a ($2,715) loan to L.L. Lichtendahl, a private company that holds a 50% interest in Leli, a promissory note to Altum of ($727) and ($5,263) invested in capital expenditures, primarily to support PSF's packhouse conversion and Delta 3 improvement projects.
Financing Activities 
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash flows provided by financing activities were $18,630 and cash flows 
provided by financing activities were $1,012 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash flows provided by financing activities consisted of $23,335 in net proceeds from the issuance of Common Shares, $83 in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and net repayment of debt of ($4,788) due to repayment of PSF's revolving line of credit. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cash flows provided by financing activities consisted of $2,000 for proceeds from the Operating Loan, $176 of proceeds from the exercise of stock options, offset by cash flows used in financing activities of ($983) in repayments on borrowings and ($301) for payments on lease obligations.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments 
We expect to meet our contractual obligations and commitments through the use of our working capital and our other 
resources described under “—Capital Resources” above. Other than in respect of our long-term debt described above, we currently do not have any material cash requirements in the near future.
Non-GAAP Measures 
References in this MD&A to “Adjusted EBITDA” and "Adjusted gross margin" are to earnings (including the equity losses 
of the joint venture, VFH) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), as further adjusted to exclude foreign currency exchange gains and losses on translation of long-term debt, unrealized gains on the changes in the value of derivative instruments, share-based compensation, gains and losses on asset sales and the other adjustments set forth in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted gross margin are measures of operating performance that are not recognized under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA  and Adjusted gross margin may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted gross margin should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted gross margin are used as an additional measures to evaluate the operating and financial performance of our 
23
segments. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted gross margin are important measures in evaluating the historical performance of the Company because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect our business performance.

(1) The purchase price adjustment primarily reflects the non-cash accounting charge resulting from the revaluation of Pure Sunfarms’ inventory to fair value at 
the acquisition date on November 2, 2020, Pure Sunfarms' intangible amortization and Rose intangible amortization resulting from the September 30, 2022 finalization of the Rose purchase price accounting.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA 
presented for these segments may not be comparable to similar measures presented for comparable segments by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company's segments because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect the business performance of our segments. Adjusted EBITDA for Canadian Cannabis includes the 70% interest in Rose LifeScience since acquisition and the three months ended March 31, 2022 Adjusted EBITDA for Cannabis U.S. includes our 65% interest in VFH.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted 
No accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the 
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Unaudited Condensed 
Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. 
We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described in the 
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying our critical accounting policies. We are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.
Quarterly Assessment for Indicators of Impairment
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company considered qualitative factors in assessing for impairment indicators for the 
Company’s US and Canadian cannabis segments. As part of this assessment, the Company considered both external and internal factors, including overall financial performance and outlook. At March 31, 2023, the Company concluded that no impairment indicators existed as no events or circumstances occurred that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the reporting units to be below their carrying amounts.
For more information, see Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of 
this Quarterly Report, and Note 11 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 
Interest Rate Risk 
As of March 31, 2023, our variable interest rate debt was primarily related to our Credit Facilities and Term Loans. 
Outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility and Term Loans bear interest at either the (a) Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or (b) Canadian Prime Rate, as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin. As of March 31, 2023, we had approximately $4,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding revolving loans under our Operating Loan with a weighted average interest rate of 6.48% and we had approximately $52,030 in aggregate principal amounts with Term Loans with a weighted average interest rate of 8.22%. The current interest rates for outstanding revolving loans under our Credit Facility and Term Loans reflect basis point increases of approximately 3.7% over the comparable period in 2022. 
Our interest expense is affected by the overall interest rate environment. Our variable rate interest debt subjects us to risk from increases in prevailing interest rates. This risk increases in the current inflationary environment, in which the Federal Reserve has increased interest rates, resulting in an increase in our variable interest rates and related interest expense. An additional 50 basis point increase in the applicable interest rates under our Credit Facility and Term Loan would have increased our interest expense by approximately $66 and $76, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
While we cannot predict our ability to refinance existing debt or the significance of the impact that interest rate movements 
will have on our existing debt, management evaluates our financial position on an ongoing basis.
Foreign Exchange Risk 
As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Canadian/U.S. foreign exchange rate was C$1.00 = US$0.7390 and C$1.00 = 
US$0.7995, respectively. Assuming that all other variables remain constant, an increase of $0.10 in the Canadian dollar would have the following impact on the ending balances of certain statements of financial position items at March 31, 2023 and 2022 with the net foreign exchange gain or loss directly impacting net income (loss).

Deferred tax liability(2,764)(2,753)
Net foreign exchange gain (loss)$774 $3,318
Our exposure to foreign exchange risk and the impact of foreign exchange rates are monitored by the Company’s 
management but generally the Company tries to match its sales (trade receivables) and vendor payments (trade payables) such that the net impact is not material. 
Other than the interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk discussed above, there have been no material changes to our market 
risks from those disclosed in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to 
be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 
26
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief 
Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective at a reasonable assurance level due to the material weakness described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
As of December 31, 2022, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using 
the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control –Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria because a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting existed as of that date, as described below.
The Company did not operate effective controls over the calculation of the recoverable amount of goodwill and intangible 
assets. The Company’s controls related to the calculation of the recoverable amount of goodwill failed to prevent or detect an error in the revision of certain of the formulas and significant assumptions within the calculation of recoverable amount. There was no impact on the Company’s December 31, 2022 financial statements. 
Remediation Plan and Status
In the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company implemented remediation to improve the operation of its controls 
over the review of the determination of the recoverable amount of its goodwill and intangible assets. The Company will continue to review, optimize and enhance its financial reporting controls and procedures to ensure the remediation measures are effective and controls are operating effectively. The Company expects implementation of its remediation plan by December 31, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has 
reviewed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), other than to address the material weakness described in management's report on internal control over financial reporting, during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023 (as described above) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ARTICLE V - GENERAL CONDITIONS
5.01 Matters relating to Interest
(a)Unless otherwise indicated, interest on any outstanding principal amount and all other amounts payable  hereunder  (including  unpaid  interest)  shall  be  calculated  daily  and  shall  be  payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each and every month; and if the maturity date of a Facility is not the end of a month, all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of that Facility shall be paid on such  maturity  date.  If  any  day  on  which  interest  is  payable  is  not  a  Business  Day,  the  interest payment due on such day shall be made on the next Business Day, and interest shall continue to accrue on the said principal amount and shall also be paid on such next Business Day. Interest shall accrue from and including the day upon which an Advance is made or is deemed to have been made, and ending on but excluding the day on which such Advance is repaid or satisfied. Any change in the Prime Rate shall cause an immediate adjustment of the interest rate applicable to Prime-Based Loans without the necessity of any notice to the Borrower.
(b)Unless otherwise stated, in this Agreement if reference is made to a rate of interest, fee or other amount “per annum” or a similar expression is used, such interest, fee or other amount shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) or three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be. If the amount of any interest, fee or other amount is determined or expressed on the basis of a period of less than one year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) or three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, the equivalent yearly rate is equal to the  rate  so  determined  or  expressed,  divided  by  the  number  of  days  in  the  said  period,  and multiplied by the actual number of days in that calendar year. The Agent agrees that promptly upon request by the Borrower from time to time it will advise the Borrower of the Prime Rate and CDOR in effect at such time (or during any other period prior to such time), and will assist the Borrower in calculating the effective annual rate of interest required to be disclosed pursuant to section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada). The Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way  of  defence  or  otherwise,  in  any  proceeding  relating  to  this  Agreement  or  any  other  Loan Documents,  that  the  interest  payable  thereunder  and  the  calculation  thereof  has  not  been adequately disclosed to the Borrower, whether pursuant to section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other Law.
(c)Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, if the amount of any interest, premium, fees or other monies or any rate of interest stipulated for, taken, reserved or extracted under the Loan Documents would otherwise contravene the provisions of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada), section 4 or section 8 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any successor or similar legislation, or would exceed the amounts which any Lender is legally entitled to charge and receive under any 
  DOCPROPERTY "CUS_DocIDChunk0" NATDOCS\70776052\V-4
Law to which such compensation is subject, then such amount or rate of interest shall be reduced to  such  maximum  amount  as  would  not  contravene  such  provision;  and  to  the  extent  that  any excess has been charged or received such Lender shall apply such excess against the Outstanding Principal Amount and refund any further excess amount.
(d)Any  change  in  the  Applicable  Margin  in  respect  of  any  Availment  Option  shall  be  determined quarterly by the Agent based upon the information contained in the Compliance Certificate received by  the  Agent  in  respect  of  the  most  recently  completed  Fiscal  Quarter,  and  shall  take  effect commencing on the fifth (5th) Business Day following receipt of such Compliance Certificate by the Agent (in this paragraph called the “effective date”). For greater certainty:
(i)the interest rates and fees applicable to all Advances made on or after the effective date shall be based upon the said revised Applicable Margin;
(ii)from and after the effective date, the interest rates and fees applicable to all Prime-Based Loans outstanding on the effective date shall be based upon the said revised Applicable Margin; 
(iii)no readjustment shall be made in respect of any CDOR Loan which is outstanding on the effective date, and the said revised Applicable Margin shall apply to all CDOR Loans issued or made on or after the effective date; and
(iv)in respect of each Letter of Credit which is outstanding on the effective date there shall be a readjustment to the fee initially paid upon the issuance thereof, as follows: the fee relating to the period from the date of issuance to but excluding the effective date shall be based upon the Applicable Margin in effect during such period; and the fee relating to the period from and including the effective date to but excluding the date of expiry of such Letter of Credit shall be based upon the Applicable Margin in effect from and after the effective date; and the Agent and the Borrower agree to promptly make all such payments as the Agent may advise are required in order to effect such adjustments.
The determination of such adjustments by the Agent shall be deemed to be correct absent manifest error. If the Agent does not receive a Compliance Certificate on a date required pursuant to Section 7.04,  then  from  and  after  the  date  such  Compliance  Certificate  was  required  to  have  been delivered, the Applicable Margin in respect of each Availment Option shall be the highest Applicable Margin relating thereto, until the fifth Business Day following receipt by the Agent of the required Compliance Certificate.
(e)The  interest  rate  on  an  Advance  may  be  derived  from  an  interest  rate  benchmark  that  may  be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 5.8, provides a mechanism for determining an alternative reference rate of interest for the Benchmark. The Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to: 
(i)the continuation of, the administration of, submission of, calculation of, performance of or any other matter related to any reference interest rate used in this Agreement (including the Prime Rate, the CDOR Rate, CORRA, Term CORRA or Daily Compounded CORRA) or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as the Prime Rate, the CDOR Rate, CORRA, Term CORRA or Daily Compounded  CORRA  or  any  other  Benchmark  (or  any  component  thereof)  prior  to  its discontinuance or unavailability; or 
  DOCPROPERTY "CUS_DocIDChunk0" NATDOCS\70776052\V-4
(ii)the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. 
The Agent and its Affiliates and/or its other Related Persons may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any reference interest rate (or component thereof) used in this Agreement or any alternative,  successor  or  replacement  rate  (including  any  Benchmark  Replacment)  and/or  any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.  The Agent may select  information  sources  or  services  in  its  reasonable  discretion  to  ascertain  any  reference interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referred to in the definition thereof or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person for damages of  any  kind,  including  direct  or  indirect,  special,  punitive,  incidental  or  consequential  damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such reference interest rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. To the extent applicable, capitalized terms used in this paragraph (e) have the meanings given to them in Section 5.8.

5.08Benchmark Replacement Setting
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained or in any other Loan Document (and any 
Hedge Transaction shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for the purposes of this Section):
(a)On May 16, 2022 Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited (“RBSL”), the administrator of the CDOR Rate, announced in a public statement that the calculation and publication of all tenors of the CDOR Rate will permanently cease immediately following a final publication on Friday, June 28, 2024. On the date that all Available Tenors of the CDOR Rate have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by RBSL (the “CDOR Cessation Date”), if the then-current Benchmark is the CDOR Rate, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Compounded CORRA, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.
(b)Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.  At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Advances to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Prime-Based Loans.  During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of the Prime Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of the Prime Rate.
(c)In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(d)The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (ii) any occurrence of a Term CORRA Transition Event, and (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  Any

(e)At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term CORRA or the CDOR Rate), then (i) the Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings, and (ii) the Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.
(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term CORRA Transition Event and its related Term CORRA Transition Date have occurred, then on and after such Term CORRA Transition Date (i) the Benchmark Replacement described in paragraph (1)(A) of such definition will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) each Advance outstanding on the Term CORRA Transition Date bearing interest based on the then-current Benchmark shall convert, on the last day of the then-current interest payment period, into an Advance bearing interest at the Benchmark Replacement described in paragraph (1)(A) of such definition for the respective Available Tenor as selected by the Borrower as is available for the then-current Benchmark; provided that, this paragraph (f) shall not be effective unless the Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term CORRA Notice, and so long as the Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date of the Term CORRA Notice, written notice of objection to such conversion to Term CORRA from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders or the Borrower.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that it has made a payment hereunder in error to any Lender or the Issuing Bank, whether or not in respect of an Obligation due and owing by a Credit Party at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event, each such person receiving a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such person in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  Each Lender and the Issuing Bank irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any “discharge for value” (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another), “good consideration”, “change of position” or similar defenses (whether at law or in equity) to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount.  The Agent shall inform  each  Lender  or  Issuing  Bank  that  received  a  Rescindable  Amount  promptly  upon determining that any payment made to such person comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.  Each person’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 11.14 shall survive the  resignation  or  replacement  of  the  Agent,  any  transfer  of  rights  or  obligations  by,  or  the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

letter  agreement  (this  “Amendment”),  you  and  the  Company  mutually  agree  to  amend  the 
Employment Agreement as set forth herein, effective as of April 5, 2023 (the “Effective Date”).  
All  capitalized  terms  used  but  not  defined  herein  will  have  the  meanings  set  forth  in  the 
Employment Agreement.  
The terms of this Amendment, as set forth below, constitute a legally binding agreement 
between you and the Company.  
1. Section 2 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as 
follows: 
Unless  sooner  terminated  as  provided  in  Section  4,  the  Executive’s  term  of 
employment under this Agreement shall run for a period of three (3) years, plus 
one  month,  from  the  Effective  Date  to  June  30,  2023  (the  “Initial  Term”); 
provided  that,  the  Executive’s  term  of  employment  under  this  Agreement  will 
automatically be extended for one additional year commencing on June 30, 2023 
and  on  each  annual  anniversary  of  such  date  thereafter  (each,  a  “Renewal Term”)

termination of the Executive’s employment due to notice of non-renewal of the 
Term by the Company shall be treated as a termination “Without Cause” under 
Section 4(d) and the Executive shall receive the applicable payments and benefits

This Amendment, for all purposes, will be construed in accordance with the laws of the 
State of Florida without regard to any conflict- or choice-of-law principles that would 
call  for  the  application  of  the  law  of  another  jurisdiction.  Any  controversy  or  claim 
arising out of or related to this Amendment shall be settled by arbitration as provided 
in Section 15 of the Employment Agreement.  
This  Amendment  may  be  executed  in  counterparts  and  delivered  by  electronic 
transmission  in  “portable  document  format”  or  by  any  other  electronic  signature 
method acceptable to the Company, each of which shall be an original and which taken 
together shall constitute one and the same document.
