Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
   
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On August 11, 2016, Lexaria announced that it has closed the private placement equity financing announced on July 5, 2016.

The financing was for 1,558,525 equity units priced at US$0.06; each equity unit consisting of one common share of the Company and one non-transferable share purchase warrant, each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company for a period of two years from the date of issuance, at a purchase price of US$0.14; in order to raise gross proceeds of US$93,511.50 (the "Private Placement"). After the issuance of these shares, the Company will have 48,021,811 shares issued and outstanding.

All funds raised of US$93,511.50 will be used to continue deployment and marketing of hemp based food products, for investor relations, and for G&A and general working capital.

The securities issued will be subject to a hold period in Canada of four months and one day, or for any resales into the USA under Rule 144, six months and one day. The Private Placement is subject to normal regulatory approvals. An insider of the Company subscribed for US$27,000.

Lexaria also announces it has enhanced the existing services of Frontier Merchant Capital Group (“Frontier”) with a head office in Toronto, Canada for a cost of US$35,931.50 for new services provided over the one-year contract. Frontier will continue to assist the Company by increasing market awareness utilizing a number of financial market communication initiatives. The core of these will be facilitating in-person introduction for the Company with institutional and retail brokers and investors in cities across Canada, the US, and potentially Europe.

The securities referred to herein will not be or have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

A copy of the news release announcing the closing of our financing and the enhancement of the existing services of Frontier Merchant Capital is filed as exhibit 99.1 to this current report and is hereby incorporated by reference.

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"). THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY; (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR (C) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS; OR (D) IN A TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND, IN THE CASE OF PARAGRAPH (C) OR (D), THE SELLER FURNISHES TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION TO SUCH EFFECT. DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE GOOD DELIVERY IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA."

15


Delivery of certificates bearing such a legend may not constitute "good delivery" in settlement of transactions on Canadian stock exchanges or over-the-counter markets. If the Issuer is a "foreign issuer" with no "substantial U.S. market interest" (all within the meaning of Regulation S under the 1933 Act) at the time of sale, a new certificate, which will constitute "good delivery", will be made available to the Purchaser upon provision by the Purchaser of a declaration in the form attached as Appendix "A" together with such other evidence of the availability of an exemption as the Issuer or its transfer agent may reasonably require.

Certificates representing Warrants, and all certificates issued in exchange therefore or in substitution thereof, shall bear the following legend in substantially the following form:

"THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES DELIVERABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES. THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE EXERCISED BY OR ON BEHALF OF A "U.S. PERSON" OR A PERSON IN THE UNITED STATES UNLESS THE WARRANT AND THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LEGISLATION OF ANY SUCH STATE OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS IS AVAILABLE. "UNITED STATES" AND "U.S. PERSON" ARE AS DEFINED BY REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT."

  10. It understands and agrees that there may be material tax consequences to the Purchaser of an acquisition or disposition of the Securities. The Issuer gives no opinion and makes no representation with respect to the tax consequences to the Purchaser under United States, state, local or foreign tax law of the undersigned’s acquisition or disposition of such Securities, in particular, no determination has been made whether the Issuer will be a "passive Foreign investment company" ("PFIC") within the meaning of Section 1291 of the United States Internal Revenue Code.
     
  11. It understands and agrees that the financial statements of the Issuer may have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, which differ in some respects from United States generally accepted accounting principles, and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of United States companies.
     
  12. It consents to the Issuer making a notation on its records or giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Issuer in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth and described in this Certification and the Subscription Agreement.
     
  13. It is resident in the United States of America, its territories and possessions or any state of the United States or the District of Columbia (collectively the "United States"), a "U.S. Person" as such term is defined in Regulation S of the 1933 Act or was in the United States at the time the securities were offered or the Subscription Agreement was executed.
     
  14. It understands that the Securities are "restricted securities" under applicable federal securities laws and that the 1933 Act and the rules of the SEC provide in substance that the Purchaser may dispose of the Securities only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or an exemption therefrom, and, other than as set out herein, the Purchaser understands that the Issuer has no obligation to register any of the Securities or to take action so as to permit sales pursuant to the 1933 Act (including Rule 144 thereunder). Accordingly, the Purchaser understands that absent registration, under the rules of the SEC, the Purchaser may be required to hold the Securities indefinitely or to transfer the Securities in "private placements" which are exempt from registration under the 1933 Act, in which event the transferee will acquire "restricted securities" subject to the same limitations as in the hands of the Purchaser. As a consequence, the Purchaser understands that it must bear the economic risks of the investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time.
     
  15. It has no intention to distribute, and shall not transfer, either directly or indirectly any of the Securities to any person within the United States or to U.S. persons, as defined in Regulations S (a "US Person") except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or an exemption therefrom.

16



  16. It has no intention to distribute, and shall not transfer, either directly or indirectly any of the Securities to any person within the United States or to U.S. persons, as defined in Regulations S (a "US Person") except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or an exemption therefrom.

The statements made in this Certification are true and accurate to the best of my information and belief and I will promptly notify the Issuer of any changes in the answers.

Lexaria Closes Financing, Enhances Investor Relations Agreement

Kelowna, BC / August 11, 2016 / Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (OTCQB:LXRP) (CSE:LXX) (the “Company” or “Lexaria”) announces it has closed the private placement equity financing announced July 5.

The financing was for 1,558,525 equity units priced at US$0.06; each equity unit consisting of one common share of the Company and one non-transferable share purchase warrant, each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company for a period of two years from the date of issuance, at a purchase price of US$0.14; in order to raise gross proceeds of US$93,511.50 (the "Private Placement"). After the issuance of these shares, the Company will have 48,021,811 shares issued and outstanding.

All funds raised of US$93,511.50 will be used to continue deployment and marketing of hemp based food products, for investor relations, and for G&A and general working capital.

The securities issued will be subject to a hold period in Canada of four months and one day, or for any resales into the USA under Rule 144, six months and one day. The Private Placement is subject to normal regulatory approvals. An insider of the Company subscribed for US$27,000.

Lexaria also announces it has enhanced the existing services of Frontier Merchant Capital Group (“Frontier”) with a head office in Toronto, Canada for a cost of US$35,931.50 for new services provided over the one-year contract. Frontier will continue to assist the Company by increasing market awareness utilizing a number of financial market communication initiatives. The core of these will be facilitating in-person introduction for the Company with institutional and retail brokers and investors in cities across Canada, the US, and potentially Europe.

The securities referred to herein will not be or have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

Lexaria’s technology is extremely cost effective to implement and applicable to a wide spectrum of foods, capsules, and beverages.
