Insights

IM Cannabis amended warrant terms favorably for holders while insiders maintain significant ownership stakes - neutral impact on company's financial position.

The press release details technical amendments to IM Cannabis' warrant structure that could have significant implications for its capital position. The company is reducing the exercise price of its November 2024 Warrants from C$4.32 to C$3.43 while extending the expiration date from November 2026 to July 2030 - almost four additional years. These changes make the warrants more attractive to holders by lowering the purchase threshold and providing substantially more time to exercise.

Concurrently, the company filed a Form F-3 Resale Registration Statement with the SEC covering nearly 5 million common shares, including those issuable through various warrant exercises. This registration, once effective, will allow selling shareholders to freely trade their securities, potentially increasing liquidity but also creating selling pressure.

Most notably, this transaction involves significant insider participation. CEO Oren Shuster holds 194,110 warrants affected by these amendments, while director Shmulik Arbel holds 48,349 and insider Rafael Gabay holds 194,088. Together, Shuster and Gabay control approximately 27% of outstanding shares on a non-diluted basis through direct ownership and their joint interest in Ewave Group Ltd.

The warrant amendments required approval from independent board members due to this insider involvement, qualifying as a "related party transaction" under MI 61-101. However, the company utilized exemptions from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements as the transaction value was below 25% of market capitalization.

These changes appear designed to provide more favorable terms to existing warrant holders, including insiders who maintain significant ownership positions. While the reduced exercise price might increase the likelihood of eventual warrant exercises (providing capital to the company), the nearly four-year extension significantly delays that potential capital infusion.

Form F-3 Resale Registration Statement

The Company also announces that, further to its press release dated July 31, 2025 (the "July 31 Release"), it has filed a resale registration statement on Form F-3 (the "Resale Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in the July 31 Release.

The Resale Registration Statement registered an aggregate of 4,982,517 Common Shares comprised of (i) 1,202,000 Common Shares, (ii) 848,000 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, (iii) 2,050,000 Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, (iv) 140,000 Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of certain Common Share purchase warrants issued to Pure Equity Ltd. ("Finder's Warrants") in connection with the Offering, and (v) 742,517 Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the November 2024 Warrants (including, in each case, any securities issued or issuable as a result of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or similar events or pursuant to anti-dilution or other adjustments). A copy of the Resale Registration Statement will be available on the Company's issuer profile on SEDAR+ at Ìýand Edgar at .

The Resale Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC but has not yet become effective. The Common Shares and Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Warrants, the Finder's Warrants and the November 2024 Warrants, as applicable, covered by the Resale Registration Statement (the "Securities") may not be sold, nor may offers to buy any such Securities be accepted, prior to the time the Resale Registration Statement becomes effective by the SEC. If declared effective by the SEC, the selling shareholders may use the prospectus relating to the Resale Registration Statement from time to time to resell their Securities. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of any of the Securities by the selling shareholders.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sellÌý or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Company's securities, including the Securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

Related Party Transaction

Oren Shuster, a director and officer of the Company, Shmulik Arbel, a director of the Company and Rafael Gabay, an insider of the Company, (together, the "Participating Insiders") each participated in the Transaction as a Holder of November 2024 Warrants. Mr. Shuster holds 194,110 November 2024 Warrants, Mr. Arbel holds 48,349 November 2024 Warrants and Mr. Gabay holds 194,088 November 2024 Warrants.

The participation of the Participating Insiders in the Transaction constitutes a "related party transaction", as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 � Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") and would have required the Company to receive minority shareholder approval for and obtain a formal valuation for the subject matter of, the Transaction in accordance with MI 61-101, prior to the completion of the Transaction. However, in completing the Transaction, the Company has relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of the Participating Insiders' participation in the Transaction as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the Transaction, insofar as it involved the Participating Insiders, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).

The Transaction was approved by the members of the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") who are independent for the purposes of the Transaction insofar as it involved the Participating Insiders. No special committee was established in connection with the Transaction.

Further details will be included in a material change report to be filed by the Company. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the closing date of the Transaction as the Participating Insiders were treated equally with each of the other Holders. In the Company's view, the shorter period was necessary to permit the Company to close the Transaction in a timeframe consistent with usual market practice for transactions of this nature and was reasonable in the circumstances.
