DanCann Pharma A/S is reducing its debt with current lenders through a directed share issue at market conditions

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, 21 March 2023 - DanCann Pharma A/S (SS: DANCAN) (OTCQB: DCPXF) ("DanCann Pharma" or the "Company"), a Danish company powered by cannabinoids, has today, with the support of an authorization from the Extra General Meeting held September 20, 2022, decided on a new share issue of a maximum of 2,031,250 shares at a subscription price of DKK 0.63 per share at a total value of 2 MSEK (the "Share Issue")

The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights are mainly to raise capital in a time-efficient manner and to be able to reduce the debt in the Company. The subscription price per share corresponds to the VWAP for the share over a period of 21-trading days up to and including 20 March 2023, which was the last trading day before the Board of Director's decision on the Directed Issue of shares and without any discount. The Board of Directors' assessment is that the subscription price in the Directed Issue of Units is in accordance with market conditions, since it has been determined through a 21-day VWAP.

The completion of the Directed Issue of shares results in a dilution for existing shareholders of approximately 3 percent of the number of shares and votes in the Company after completion of the transaction, through an increase in the number of outstanding shares and votes of 2,063,492, from 65,014,639 to 67,078,131. The share capital increase from DKK 2,438,049 to approximately DKK 2,515,430. Payment for subscribed shares must be made in cash.

In order to facilitate the delivery of shares to the Investors in the directed issue, CEO, Jeppe Krog Rasmussen has made approx. 2,000,000 shares available for the Investors to borrow. At claim of the share loan, the borrowed shares will be returned after the directed issue is registered with the Danish Companies Registration Office.

The CEO of DanCann Pharma, Jeppe Krog Rasmussen, commented:

Through dialogue with our current lenders, we have succeeded in writing down approximately SEK 2 million on our current loan, based on market conditions, which completes this transaction in an otherwise very noisy and nervous market, viewed through global economic glasses.

We are very pleased with this outcome.
