(“Charlotte’s Web” or the “Company”) has filed a prospectus supplement to establish an at-the-market equity program (the “ATM Program”). The Company may distribute up to CAD$60 million of common shares of the Company (the “Offered Shares”) under the ATM Program. Any distributions of the Offered Shares through the ATM Program will be made pursuant to the terms of an equity distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity Corp. and BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. (together, the “Agents”). The Offered Shares may be issued by the Company to the public from time to time, through the Agents, at the Company’s discretion. The Offered Shares sold under the ATM Program, if any, will be sold at the prevailing market price at the time of sale.

The ATM Program expands the Company’s access to capital liquidity sources for future potential operational or growth opportunities. Any net proceeds from the ATM Program would be anticipated to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include general and administrative expenses, working capital needs and other general corporate purposes‎. Under the Distribution Agreement, sales of Offered Shares will be made by the Agents through “at-the-market distributions” as defined in National Instrument 44-102 – Shelf Distributions on the Toronto Stock Exchange or any other trading market for the Offered Shares in Canada. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Offered Shares under the Distribution Agreement. The volume and timing of distributions under the ATM Program, if any, will be determined in the Company’s sole discretion. Any Offered Shares under the ATM Program will be distributed at the market prices prevailing at the time of each sale and, as a result, prices may vary as between purchasers and during the period of the ATM Program. Unless earlier terminated by the Company or the Agents as permitted therein, the Distribution Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (a) the date that the aggregate gross sales proceeds of the Offered Shares sold under the ATM Program reaches the aggregate amount of CAD$60 million; or (b) June 5, 2023.

The ATM Program is being made pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated June 3, 2021 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the Company’s short form base shelf prospectus dated May 5, 2021 (“Base Prospectus”), filed with the securities commissions in each of the provinces and territories of Canada.
