Emerald Health Therapeutics Announces Bridge Loan to Skye Bioscience and Provides Update on Merger

By: Newsfile

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 18, 2022) - Emerald Health Therapeutics, Inc. (CSE: EMH) (OTCQB: EMHTF) ("Emerald" or the "Company") reports that it has provided a short-term bridge loan of US$700,000 to Skye Bioscience, Inc. ("Skye") in order to provide Skye with additional working capital until the closing of their Arrangement.

On May 11, 2022, Emerald and SKYE entered into an Arrangement Agreement (as subsequently amended) pursuant to which Skye will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of EHT. Both company's stockholders have approved the transaction and it has been approved by the Supreme Court of British Columbia.

Skye and Emerald continue to work toward satisfying the remaining closing condition of the Arrangement, which requires Skye to obtain conditional listing approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange. Closing is now expected to occur sometime in early to mid-November. As such, the parties have agreed to extend the "Outside Date" under the Arrangement Agreement to November 15, 2022.

The loan is unsecured and will accrue simple interest from October 17, 2022, until paid at an interest rate of 12% per annum, provided, however, that (a) upon closing of the plan of arrangement such interest rate will be reduced to 5% per annum; and (b) from and after an Event of Default (as set forth in the Loan Agreement), interest shall accrue at a Default Rate that is the lesser of (i) the applicable interest rate hereunder plus five percent (5%) or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

The entire outstanding principal amount of the loan and applicable interest accrued shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of (a) December 31, 2022, in the case that the Arrangement Agreement is terminated, or (b) October 17, 2023, and (c) such earlier date as the Loan may become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.
