NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

May 5, 2022 — (Vancouver, BC) good natured Products Inc. (the “Company” or “good natured®”) (TSX Venture Exchange: GDNP), a North American leader in plant-based products, today announced that it has amended the terms of its previously announced offering of units of the Company. Under the amended terms of the Offering (as defined below), a syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters“) co-led by Beacon Securities Limited and National Bank Financial Inc. have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal basis, 22,500,000 units (the “Units“) of the Company at a price of $0.40 per Unit (the “Issue Price”) for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $9,000,000 (the “Offering“).

Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a “Unit Share”) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”) of the Company. Each full Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share (a “Warrant Share”) of the Company at a price per Warrant Share of $0.52 for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering. The expiry date of the Warrants will be subject to acceleration upon 30 days notice by the Company if the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company exceeds $0.65 for a period of 20 consecutive trading days ending at any time following the date which is 9 months following the Closing Date of the Offering.

In connection with the Offering, the Company has granted the Underwriters an option (the “Over-Allotment Option”), exercisable in whole or in part by the Underwriters, at any time and from time to time up to 30 days following the closing of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional number of: (i) Units (the “Additional Units”) at the Issue Price; or (ii) additional common shares only (the “Additional Shares”) at a price per Additional Share of $0.38 per Additional Share; or (iii) additional warrants comprising the Units (the “Additional Warrants”) at a price per Additional Warrant of $0.04; or (iv) any combination of Additional Shares and/or Additional Warrants so long as the aggregate number of Additional Units, Additional Shares and/or Additional Warrants which may be issued under the Over-Allotment Option does not exceed 15% of the aggregate number of Unit Shares and Warrants comprising the Units sold pursuant to the base Offering to cover over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes.

In consideration for the services to be provided by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, the Company has also agreed to pay the Underwriters a cash commission equal to 6.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering and issue that number of compensation options (the “Compensation Options”) to the Underwriters equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Units issued pursuant to the Offering. Each Compensation Option shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at the Issue Price for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.

The Company has applied to list the Unit Shares, Warrant Shares, and the Common Shares underlying the Compensation Options (as defined herein) (including any Unit Shares, Warrant Shares or Additional Shares issued under the Over-Allotment Option), on the TSXV.

The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used by the Company to fund the acquisition of FormTex Plastics Corporation (the “Acquisition“), working capital to support organic growth initiatives of the Company, and initiatives to improve the Company’s operational efficiency. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about May 12, 2022 (the “Closing Date”) or such other date as the Company and the Underwriters may agree, and is subject to a number of conditions, including without limitation, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and the applicable securities regulatory authorities.

The Offering is to be effected on a bought deal basis in each of the provinces of Canada (other than Quebec) (the “Qualifying Jurisdictions“) pursuant to a prospectus supplement to the Company’s base shelf prospectus dated January 19, 2022, with such prospectus supplement to be filed in each of the Qualifying Jurisdictions, and by way of private placement to eligible purchasers resident in jurisdictions other than Canada that are mutually agreed to by the Company and the co-lead underwriters, provided that no prospectus filing or comparable obligation arises and the Company does not thereafter become subject to continuous disclosure obligations in such jurisdictions.

The Units have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act“) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, for the account or benefit of, “U.S. persons” (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) absent registration under the U.S. Securities Act or and applicable state securities laws or pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Units may be offered and sold in the United States to Qualified Institutional Buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act) and to Accredited Investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the U.S. Securities Act), in each case by way of private placement pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. Any Offered Shares offered and sold in the United States shall be issued as “restricted securities” (as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act).

This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, the expected closings of the Acquisition and the Offering, the availability of debt and equity financing for the Acquisition, statements regarding the Acquisition, and the projected impact of completion of the Acquisition on the Company’s business, financial conditions and results.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, changes in circumstances and other factors that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company’s control which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or other future events, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the Company’s ability to successfully close the Acquisition, the future of its business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, general market conditions, the economy and other future conditions. The Company’s actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements.

• Risks relating to general economic, market and business conditions.
• Unforeseen delays in the timelines for any of the transactions or events described in this press release.

The Company considers its assumptions to be reasonable based on currently available information, but cautions the reader that its assumptions regarding future events, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, may ultimately prove to be incorrect since they are subject to risks and uncertainties that affect the Company and its businesses. When relying on the Company’s forward-looking statements and information to make decisions, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. The Company has assumed that the material factors referred to above will not cause such forward-looking statements and information to differ materially from actual results or events.
