Dear Aphria Shareholders and Tilray Stockholders:

We are excited to invite you to attend the special meeting of shareholders (the “ Aphria Meeting ”) of Aphria Inc. (“ Aphria ”) and the special meeting of the stockholders (the “ Tilray Meeting ”) of Tilray, Inc. (“ Tilray ”), to approve the proposed business combination between the two companies (the “ Transaction ”). The Aphria Meeting will take place via live audio webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/APHA2021 on April 14, 2021 at 4:00 pm (Eastern time) and the Tilray Meeting will take place via live audio webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLRY2021SM , on April 16, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time).

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. Whether or not you expect to attend the Aphria Meeting or the Tilray Meeting virtually, please submit your vote as soon as possible. We urge you to read the enclosed materials carefully and to promptly vote by following the instructions in the enclosed materials.

We thank you for your consideration and continued support.

The transaction (the “ Transaction ”) is to be completed pursuant to an arrangement (the “ Arrangement ”) under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). Under the terms of the Arrangement, shareholders of Aphria will receive 0.8381 of a share of Tilray common stock for each Aphria share held. Tilray stockholders will continue to hold their Tilray common stock, which will remain outstanding. Upon the completion of the Transaction, it is expected (based on the shares of Tilray and Aphria issued and issuable as of March 12, 2021) that the Exchange Ratio will result in shareholders of each of Aphria and of Tilray owning approximately 61.2% and 38.8%, respectively, of the post-closing outstanding Tilray common stock (on a fully diluted basis), assuming there is no change in the issued and outstanding Tilray share numbers prior to closing, resulting in the reverse acquisition of Tilray. ⁽¹⁾

Following the completion of the Transaction, the resulting company of the Arrangement (the “Combined Company”) will operate under the Tilray corporate name with shares trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “TLRY”. In addition, Tilray currently expects to list the Tilray common stock on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) at, or as soon as practicable following, the completion of the Transaction.

Each of Aphria’s and Tilray’s respective boards of directors RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE TRANSACTION as the combination of the two companies is expected to unlock significant shareholder value as follows:

 

The demand of the Combined Company will be supported by low-cost state-of-the-art cultivation, processing, and manufacturing facilities, and it will have a complete portfolio of branded cannabis 2.0 products in order to strengthen its leadership position in Canada.

 

 

 

 

 

Each of Aphria’s and Tilray’s respective boards of directors has unanimously approved the Transaction and recommends that you vote “FOR” the resolutions necessary to implement the Transaction and the respective proposals set forth in this Circular.

We urge you to vote FOR the resolutions necessary to implement the Transaction and the respective proposals set forth in this Circular by promptly submitting your signed and dated proxy or voting instruction form in the postage-paid envelope provided, or alternatively, voting by telephone or via the internet as described in the easy instructions included on your form of proxy or voting instruction form.

Registered and beneficial Aphria shareholders may vote using the following methods:

If you hold your Aphria shares through an intermediary, please follow the instructions on the voting instruction form provided by such intermediary to ensure that your vote is counted at the Aphria Meeting.

Tilray registered and beneficial shareholders may vote using the following methods:

Aphria Shareholders who are planning to provide voting instructions in accordance with the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form are encouraged to review the Circular carefully before submitting such form.

Registered Aphria Shareholders have the right to dissent with respect to the Aphria Resolution and, if the Arrangement becomes effective, to be paid the fair value of their Aphria Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 185 of the OBCA, as modified by the Interim Order and the plan of arrangement (“Plan of Arrangement”). A registered Aphria Shareholder’s right to dissent is more particularly described in the Circular under the heading “Aphria Dissenting Shareholders’ Rights”. Copies of the Plan of Arrangement, the Interim Order and the text of Section 185 of the OBCA are set forth in Appendix “B”, Appendix “D” and Appendix “K”, respectively, to the Circular.

Failure to strictly comply with the requirements set forth in Section 185 of the OBCA, as modified by the Interim Order and the Plan of Arrangement, may result in the loss of any right of dissent.

It is strongly suggested that any Aphria Shareholder wishing to dissent seek independent legal advice, as the failure to comply strictly with the provisions of the OBCA, as modified by the Interim Order and the Plan of Arrangement, may result in the loss of such Aphria Shareholder’s right to dissent.

If you are an Aphria Shareholder and have any questions, please contact Laurel Hill, our proxy solicitation agent, by telephone at 1-877-452-7184 toll-free in North America or at 416-304-0211 for collect calls outside of North America or by email at assistance@laurelhill.com.

DATED March 12, 2021.

THE TILRAY SHARES TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE ARRANGEMENT HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SEC OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY IN ANY STATE IN THE UNITED STATES, NOR HAVE THE SEC OR THE SECURITIES REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF ANY STATE IN THE UNITED STATES PASSED ON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS CIRCULAR. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE.

The Tilray shares to be issued under the Arrangement will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any state of the United States. Such securities will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act on the basis of the approval of the Court, which will consider, among other things, the fairness of the Arrangement to the persons affected. See “Description of the Arrangement – Court Approval”. The Tilray shares to be issued under the Arrangement will not be subject to resale restrictions under the U.S. Securities Act, except for restrictions imposed by the U.S. Securities Act on the resale of Tilray shares received pursuant to the Arrangement by persons who are, or within three months before the resale were, “affiliates” of Tilray. See “U.S. Securities Law Matters”.

Aphria Shareholders who are citizens or residents of the United States should be aware that the Arrangement described herein may have both U.S. and Canadian tax consequences to them which may not be fully described in this Circular. For a general discussion of the Canadian and U.S. federal income tax consequences to investors who are resident in the United States, see “Certain Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations” and “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”. U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors with respect to such U.S. and Canadian income tax consequences and the applicability of any federal, state, local, foreign and other tax laws.

Aphria is a “foreign private issuer” within the meaning of Rule 3b-4 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “U.S. Exchange Act”), and, therefore, this solicitation of proxies is not subject to the proxy requirements of section 14(a) of the U.S. Exchange Act. Accordingly, the solicitation of proxies contemplated herein is made in accordance with Canadian corporate and securities laws, and this Circular has been prepared in accordance with the disclosure requirements of Canadian securities laws. Aphria Shareholders located or resident in the United States should be aware that, in general, such Canadian disclosure requirements are different from those applicable to proxy statements, prospectuses or registration statements prepared in accordance with U.S. laws. The financial statements of Aphria incorporated by reference herein have been prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and have been subject to Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Accordingly, the financial statements of Aphria may not be comparable to financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The principal differences between IFRS and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as they apply to Aphria are summarized in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements of Tilray that give effect to the Arrangement, which are set forth in Appendix “L” to this Circular.

The enforcement by investors of civil liabilities under U.S. Securities Laws may be affected adversely by the fact that Aphria is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, that its officers and directors include residents of countries other than the United States, that some or all of the experts named in this Circular may be residents of countries other than the United States, or that all or a substantial portion of the assets of Aphria, and such persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for shareholders in the United States to effect service of process within the United States on Aphria, or such persons, or to realize against them upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under the securities laws of the United States. In addition, the shareholders in the United States should not assume that the courts of Canada: (a) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the securities laws of the United States; or (b) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against such persons predicated upon civil liabilities under the securities laws of the United States.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a special meeting (the “ Tilray Meeting ”) of the holders (“ Tilray Stockholders ”) of shares of class 2 common stock of Tilray, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Tilray ”) , will be held online on April  16 , 2021 at 11 : 0 0  a .m. (Eastern time) via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLRY2021SM. There will be no physical location for Tilray Stockholders to attend. Online check-in will begin at 10:45 a .m .

A copy of the Arrangement Agreement is attached as Appendix “A” to the Circular and is available for inspection by Tilray Stockholders on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov under Tilray’s SEC profile.

The record date for determining the Tilray Stockholders entitled to receive notice of and vote at the Tilray Meeting is the close of business on March 12, 2021 (the “ Tilray Record Date ”). Only Tilray Stockholders of record at the close of business on the Tilray Record Date are entitled to vote at the Tilray Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

Whether or not you are able to virtually attend the Tilray Meeting, you are encouraged to provide voting instructions in accordance with the instructions on the enclosed form of proxy or voting instruction form provided to you by your broker, investment dealer or other intermediary as soon as possible by (1) visiting the internet site listed on the enclosed Tilray proxy card, (2) calling the toll-free number listed on the enclosed Tilray proxy card, or (3) submitting your enclosed Tilray proxy card by mail by using the provided self-addressed, stamped envelope.

the Tilray Meeting, a Tilray Stockholder’s voting instructions must be received by 11:59 p.m. (Eastern time) on April 15, 2021.

Please note that the approval of Tilray Stockholders to each of the Tilray Charter Amendment Proposal and the Tilray Share Issuance Proposal is required in order to complete the Arrangement.

Expressed graphically: ⁽³⁾

If you bought your Aphria Shares on the TSX, then:

Step 1: Calculate the number of Tilray Shares that you will receive.

Calculate the number of Tilray Shares that you will receive on closing by multiplying the number of Aphria Shares that you own by 0.8381 (which is the Exchange Ratio).

Step 2: Calculate the value of the Tilray Shares that you will receive in US$.

Multiply the answer from Step 1 by the current value of each Tilray Share.

Step 3: Calculate the value of the Tilray Shares that you will receive in C$.

Multiply the answer from Step 2 by the US$ to C$ foreign exchange rate since the Tilray Shares currently trade in US$. This will give you the value of the Tilray Shares to be received in C$.

As an example, assume that:

1,000 Aphria Shares X 0.8381 = 838 Tilray Shares

838 Tilray Shares X US$20.00 per Tilray Share =US$16,760.00

US$16,760.00 X 1.2756 = C$21,379.06 (or C$21.38 per Aphria Share that you own)

If you bought your Aphria Shares on the Nasdaq, then:

Step 1: Calculate the number of Tilray Shares that you will receive

Calculate the number of Tilray Shares that you will receive on closing by multiplying the number of Aphria Shares that you own by 0.8381 (which is the Exchange Ratio).

Step 2: Calculate the value of the Tilray Shares that you will receive in US$.

Multiply the answer from Step 1 by the current value per Tilray Share.

1,000 Aphria Shares X 0.8381 = 838 Tilray Shares

838 Tilray Shares X the current value per Tilray Share

Such summary is not intended to be legal, business or tax advice. Aphria Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of the Arrangement to them with respect to their particular circumstances.

Holders who acquired different blocks of Aphria Shares with different holding periods and tax bases must generally apply the foregoing rules separately to each identifiable block of Aphria Shares. Any such holder should consult its tax advisor with regard to identifying the bases or holding periods of the particular shares of Tilray Shares received in the Arrangement.

A Party may be required to pay the other Party a Termination Amount of C$65 million if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances as described in this Circular. If the Arrangement Agreement is terminated and the Arrangement is not completed, the market price of Aphria Shares and the Tilray Shares may be materially adversely affected. See “The Arrangement Agreement and Related Agreements – Termination” and “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Arrangement”.

Before deciding whether to vote for or against the Transaction, you should carefully consider these and other risks as well as the more detailed discussion of risks found at “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Arrangement” and other information included in this Circular.

In making its recommendation, the Aphria Board considered a number of factors as described in this Circular under “Description of the Arrangement – Our Reasons for the Arrangement”, “Description of the Arrangement – Recommendation of the Aphria Board”, and “Description of the Arrangement – Factors Considered by the Aphria Board”, including the opinion from Jefferies to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion, based upon and subject to the limitations and assumptions set out therein and such other matters as Jefferies considered relevant, the Exchange Ratio is fair, from a financial point of view, to Aphria Shareholders. See “Description of the Arrangement – Opinion of Aphria’s Financial Advisor”.

Aphria and Tilray disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

The following risk factors should be considered by Aphria Shareholders and Tilray Stockholders in evaluating whether to approve the Aphria Resolution and the Tilray Proposals, respectively. These risk factors should be considered in conjunction with the other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this Circular. These risk factors relate to the Arrangement. For information on risks and uncertainties relating to the business of Aphria, see “Additional Information Concerning Aphria and Documents Incorporated by Reference by Aphria” and for information on risks and uncertainties relating to the business of Tilray, see “Additional Information Concerning Tilray and Documents Incorporated by Reference by Tilray”.

The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, some of which are outside Aphria’s and Tilray’s control, including receipt of the Final Order, receipt of Aphria Shareholder Approval, receipt of Tilray Stockholder Approval and receipt of Required Regulatory Approvals.

In addition, the completion of the Arrangement by Aphria and Tilray is conditional on, among other things, no Material Adverse Effect having occurred, or having been disclosed to the public (if previously undisclosed to the public) in respect of the other Party.

There can be no certainty, nor can Aphria or Tilray provide any assurance, that all conditions precedent to the Arrangement will be satisfied or waived, or, if satisfied or waived, when they will be satisfied or waived and, accordingly, the Arrangement may not be completed. If the Arrangement is not completed, the market price of Aphria Shares and/or Tilray Shares may be adversely affected.

To complete the Arrangement, each of Aphria and Tilray must make certain filings with and obtain certain consents and approvals from various governmental and regulatory authorities. The Required Regulatory Approvals have not been obtained yet. The regulatory approval processes may take a lengthy period of time to complete, which could delay completion of the Arrangement. If obtained, the Required Regulatory Approvals may be conditioned, with the conditions imposed by the applicable Governmental Entity not being acceptable to either Aphria or Tilray, or, if acceptable, not being on terms that are favourable to the Combined Company. There can be no assurance as to the outcome of the regulatory approval processes, including the undertakings and conditions that may be required for approval or whether the Regulatory Approvals will be obtained. If not obtained, or if obtained on terms that are not satisfactory to either Aphria or Tilray, the Arrangement may not be completed.

If, for any reason, the Arrangement is not completed or its completion is materially delayed and/or the Arrangement Agreement is terminated, the market price of Aphria Shares and Tilray Shares may be materially adversely affected. Depending on the reasons for terminating the Arrangement Agreement, Aphria’s or Tilray’s business, financial condition or results of operations could also be subject to various material adverse consequences, including as a result of paying the Aphria Termination Amount or Tilray Termination Amount, as applicable, or the Transaction Expenses.

Additionally, the market price for Tilray Shares, the market price for the Aphria Shares, and the market price of stock of other companies operating in the cannabis industry, has been extremely volatile. The volatility of the market price for Aphria Shares and Tilray Shares may be based on speculative trading of each of Aphria Shares and Tilray Shares and merger arbitrage.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the trading price of Tilray Shares ranged between a low sales price of US$2.43 and a high sales price of US$22.95 and included single day fluctuations as high as 64.13%. Additionally, during 2019, the trading price of Tilray Shares fluctuated between a low sales price of US$15.57 and a high sales price of US$106.00 per share. The market price of Tilray Shares may continue to be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond Tilray’s control, including the following: (i) actual or anticipated fluctuations in Tilray’s quarterly results of operations; (ii) recommendations by securities research analysts; (iii) changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other issuers that investors deem comparable to Tilray; (iv) the addition or departure of Tilray’s executive officers or other key personnel; (v) the

release or expiration of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on Tilray Shares, such as the release of 11.0 million Tilray Shares on April 3, 2020, 19.5 million shares, in aggregate, of Class 1 and Class 2 common stock on June 5, 2020, and 7.0 million Tilray Shares on December 14, 2020, each associated with Tilray’s downstream merger transaction in 2019; (vi) sales or perceived sales, or the expectation of future sales, of Tilray Shares; (vii) significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving Tilray or Tilray’s competitors; and (viii) news reports relating to trends, concerns, technological or competitive developments, regulatory changes and other related issues in the cannabis industry or Tilray’s target markets.

During the year ended May 31, 2020, the trading price of Aphria Shares ranged between a low sales price of C$2.65 and a high sales price of C$10.08 and included single day fluctuations as high as 23.00%. Additionally, during 2019, the trading price of Aphria Shares fluctuated between a low sales price of C$4.76 and a high sales price of C$22.00 per share. The market price of Aphria Shares may continue to be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond Aphria’s control, including the following: (i) actual or anticipated fluctuations in Aphria’s quarterly results of operations; (ii) recommendations by securities research analysts; (iii) changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other issuers that investors deem comparable to Aphria; (iv) the addition or departure of Aphria’s executive officers or other key personnel; (v) the release or expiration of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on Aphria Shares; (vi) sales or perceived sales, or the expectation of future sales, of Aphria Shares; (vii) significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving Aphria or Aphria’s competitors; and (viii) news reports relating to trends, concerns, technological or competitive developments, regulatory changes and other related issues in the cannabis industry or Aphria’s target markets.

Investors may also purchase Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares to hedge existing exposure in Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares or to speculate on the price of Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares. Speculation on the price of Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares available for purchase in the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares for delivery to lenders of such common shares. Those repurchases may, in turn, dramatically increase the price of Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares until investors with short exposure are able to purchase additional Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares, as applicable, to cover their short position. This phenomenon is often referred to as a “short squeeze”. A short squeeze could exacerbate volatile price movements in Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares that are not directly correlated to the operating performance or prospects of Tilray or Aphria, respectively. Once investors purchase the shares necessary to cover their short position, Tilray’s or Aphria’s share price will likely decline rapidly and substantially relative to its levels during the short squeeze with such decline being unrelated to operating performance or prospects of the company, and may not return to levels at or above those during the short squeeze for a long time or at all. As a result, if an investor purchases Tilray Shares or Aphria Shares during a short squeeze, the investor will be at an increased risk of failing to sell the shares at a price greater than what the investor paid for them and losing some or all of the investor’s investment.

Each of Aphria and Tilray has the right, in certain circumstances, in addition to termination rights relating to the failure to satisfy the conditions of closing, to terminate the Arrangement. Accordingly, there can be no certainty, nor can Aphria or Tilray provide any assurance that the Arrangement will not be terminated by either of Aphria or Tilray prior to the completion of the Arrangement. In addition, if the Arrangement is not completed by the Outside Date (subject to the right of either Party to extend such Outside Date by up to an additional 60 days if the Required Regulatory Approvals have not been obtained or the Final Order has not been obtained as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in each case, by such date as further described in the Arrangement Agreement), either Aphria or Tilray may choose to terminate the Arrangement Agreement. The Arrangement Agreement also includes termination amounts payable if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances. Additionally, any termination will result in the failure to realize the expected benefits of the Arrangement in respect of the operations and business of Aphria and Tilray.

Under the Arrangement Agreement, each of Aphria and Tilray is required to pay to the other a termination amount of C$65 million in the event the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in connection with entry into a Superior Proposal. This termination amount may discourage other parties from attempting to acquire Aphria Shares or Tilray

Shares or otherwise make an Acquisition Proposal to Aphria or Tilray, even if those parties, in the case of Aphria, would otherwise be willing to offer greater value to Aphria Shareholders than that offered by Tilray under the Arrangement, or in the case of Tilray, would be willing to offer Tilray Stockholders a benefit greater than what the Transaction offers.

As the Arrangement is dependent upon receipt, among other things, of the Required Regulatory Approvals and satisfaction of certain other conditions, its completion is uncertain. If the Arrangement is not completed for any reason, there are risks that the announcement of the Arrangement and the dedication of Aphria’s and Tilray’s resources to the completion thereof could have a negative impact on their respective relationships with their stakeholders and could have a material adverse effect on the current and future operations, financial condition and prospects of each of Aphria and Tilray.

In addition, each of Aphria and Tilray will incur significant transaction expenses in connection with the Arrangement, regardless of whether the Arrangement is completed.

Each of Aphria and Tilray is subject to customary non-solicitation provisions under the Arrangement Agreement, pursuant to which, the Parties are restricted from soliciting, initiating or knowingly encouraging any Acquisition Proposal, among other things. The Arrangement Agreement also restricts them from taking specified actions until the Arrangement is completed without the consent of the other Party. These restrictions may prevent each Party from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the Arrangement.

The Exchange Ratio is fixed and will not increase or decrease due to fluctuations in the market price of Aphria Shares or Tilray Shares. The market price of Aphria Shares or Tilray Shares could each fluctuate significantly prior to the Effective Date in response to various factors and events, including, without limitation, as a result of the differences between Aphria’s and Tilray’s actual financial or operating results and those expected by investors and analysts, changes in analysts’ projections or recommendations, changes in general economic or market conditions, and broad market fluctuations. As a result of such fluctuations, historical market prices are not indicative of future market prices or the market value of the Tilray Shares that holders of Aphria Shares will receive on the Effective Date. There can be no assurance that the market value of the Tilray Shares that the holders of Aphria Shares will receive on the Effective Date will equal or exceed the market value of the Aphria Shares held by such Aphria Shareholders prior to the Effective Date. Similarly, there can be no assurance that the trading price of Tilray Shares will not decline following the completion of the Arrangement.

The foregoing risks or other risks arising in connection with the failure of the Arrangement, including the diversion of management attention from conducting the business of Aphria and Tilray, may have a material adverse effect on Aphria’s and Tilray’s business operations, financial results and share price.

The business and operations of the Combined Company will be subject to the risks described in the documents of Aphria and Tilray incorporated by reference in this Circular, including, without limitation, the risks described in Aphria’s annual information form for the year ended May 31, 2020 and in Aphria’s management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the six months ended November 30, 2020 and Tilray’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and certain unexpected, unforeseen or unknown risks. The Combined Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The market or trading price of Aphria’s and Tilray’s securities could decline due to any of these risks. Additional risks not presently known to Aphria and Tilray or that Aphria and Tilray currently considers immaterial may also prove to be material and may impair the Combined Company’s business and operations. In addition to risks associated with Aphria’s and Tilray’s business and operations, the following additional risks are associated with the Combined Company.

Aphria and Tilray intend to integrate their operations together. However, operational and strategic decisions and staffing decisions have not yet been made. As a result, the Arrangement will present challenges to management, including the integration of management structures, operations, information technology and accounting systems and

personnel of the two companies, and special risks, including possible unanticipated liabilities, unanticipated costs, diversion of management’s attention and the loss of key employees or customers. These decisions and the ‎integration of Aphria’s and Tilray’s global operations may present ‎challenges to management, ‎including the integration of systems and personnel, ‎and special risks, including possible unanticipated ‎liabilities, unanticipated costs, and the loss of key ‎employees.

The ability to realize the benefits of the Arrangement may depend in part on successfully consolidating ‎‎functions and integrating operations, procedures and personnel in a timely and efficient manner, as well ‎as on ‎the Combined Company’s ability to realize the anticipated growth opportunities and synergies, ‎efficiencies and cost ‎savings from integrating Aphria’s and Tilray’s businesses following ‎completion of the Arrangement. ‎‎The performance of the Combined Company after ‎completion of the ‎Transaction could be adversely affected if the Combined Company cannot retain key employees to ‎‎assist in the ongoing operations. As a result of these factors, it is ‎possible that the cost reductions and ‎synergies expected will not be realized.‎

The difficulties that management of the Combined Company encounters in the transition and integration processes could have an adverse effect on the revenues, level of expenses and operating results of the Combined Company. The amount and timing of the ‎synergies the Parties hope to realize may not occur as planned. ‎As a result of these factors, it is possible that any anticipated benefits from the Arrangement will not be realized.

The pro forma financial statements contained in this Circular are presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an indication of the Combined Company’s financial condition or results of operations following the Arrangement for a number of reasons (including challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic). For example, the pro forma financial statements have been derived from the historical financial statements of Aphria and Tilray and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding the Combined Company after giving effect to the Arrangement. The information upon which these adjustments and assumptions have been made is preliminary, and these types of adjustments and assumptions are difficult to make with complete accuracy. Moreover, the pro forma financial statements do not reflect all costs that are expected to be incurred by the Combined Company in connection with the Arrangement. For example, the impact of any incremental costs incurred in integrating Aphria and Tilray is not reflected in the pro forma financial statements. As a result, the actual financial condition and results of operations of the Combined Company following the Arrangement may not be consistent with, or evident from, these pro forma financial statements. In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial information may not prove to be accurate, and other factors may affect the Combined Company's financial condition or results of operations following the Arrangement (including challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic). Any potential decline in the Combined Company’s financial condition or results of operations may cause a significant decrease in the stock price of Tilray.

Based on number of outstanding Aphria Shares as of March 12, 2021, Tilray currently expects to issue and make available for issuance at the Effective Time an aggregate of 298,450,205 Tilray Shares. The issuance of these shares, and the sale of Tilray Shares in the public market from time to time, could depress the market price for Tilray Shares.

The Combined Company may be required to draw down or incur additional Indebtedness under its credit facilities or other sources of debt financing. The additional Indebtedness will increase the interest payable by the Combined Company from time to time until such amounts are repaid, which will represent an increase in the Combined Company’s cost and a potential reduction in its income. In addition, the Combined Company may need to find additional sources of financing to repay this amount when it becomes due.

Tilray is a Delaware corporation. Aphria is a company continued under the OBCA. Upon completion of the Arrangement, Aphria Shareholders will become Tilray Stockholders and their rights as stockholders will be governed by the Current Tilray Organizational Documents and Delaware Law. Certain of the rights associated with Tilray Shares under Delaware Law are different from the rights associated with Aphria Shares under the OBCA. For a discussion of the different rights associated with Tilray Shares, see Appendix “J” to this Circular.

Tilray is located outside Canada and, following the Effective Time, certain of its directors, officers and experts are expected to reside outside of Canada. Accordingly, it may not be possible for Tilray Stockholders to effect service of process within Canada upon the Combined Company or the majority of its directors, officers or experts, or to enforce judgments obtained in Canadian courts against the Combined Company or the majority of its directors, officers or experts.

The Combined Company expects significant competition from other companies. Some of these companies may have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than the Combined Company, may be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products and services, and may have more extensive customer bases and broader customer relationships. The Combined Company’s future success depends upon its ability to achieve competitive per unit costs through increased production and on its ability to produce and sell higher margin products. To the extent that the Combined Company is not able to produce its products at competitive prices or consumers prioritize established low margin products over innovative, higher margin products, the Combined Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Should the size of the cannabis market increase as projected, the overall demand for products and number of competitors will increase as well, and in order for the Combined Company to be competitive it will need to invest significantly in research and development, market development, marketing, production expansion, new client identification, distribution channels and client support. If the Combined Company is not successful in obtaining sufficient resources to invest in these areas, the Combined Company’s ability to compete in the market may be adversely affected, which could materially and adversely affect the Combined Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

For a detailed discussion of the competition risks applicable to the Combined Company, see the “Competition” risk factor in Aphria’s annual information form for the year ended May 31, 2020 and Aphria’s management’s discussion & analysis for the three and six months ended November 30, 2020, and “Risks related to the Arrangement” and “Risks related to Adult-Use Cannabis” risk factors in Tilray’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

The Combined Company intends to maintain a full supply chain for the provision of products and services to the regulated cannabis industry. Due to the novel regulatory landscape for regulating cannabis in Canada, the European Union, and other international markets in which the Company will do business, and the variability surrounding the regulation of cannabis in the U.S., the Combined Company’s third-party suppliers, manufacturers and contractors may elect, at any time, to decline or withdraw services necessary for the Combined Company’s operations. Loss of these suppliers, manufacturers and contractors, including for non-cannabis based products coming from the U.S., may have a material adverse effect on the Combined Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

In addition, any significant interruption, negative change in the availability or economics of the supply chain or increase in the prices for the products or services provided by any such third party suppliers, manufacturers and contractors could materially impact the Combined Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Any inability to secure required supplies and services or to do so on appropriate terms could have a materially adverse impact on the Combined Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

For a detailed discussion of the competition risks applicable to the Combined Company, see the “Reliance on Third Party Suppliers, Manufacturers and Contractors” risk factor in Aphria’s annual information form for the year ended May 31, 2020 and Aphria’s management’s discussion & analysis for the three and six months ended November 30, 2020, and “General Business Risks and Risk Related to Our Financial Conditions and Operations,” “Risks Related to the Medical Cannabis Business” and “Risks Related to COVID-19” risk factors in Tilray’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

The Combined Company operates in a highly regulated and rapidly evolving market. The laws, regulations and guidelines generally applicable to the cannabis industry domestically and internationally may change in ways currently unforeseen. The Combined Company’s operations are subject to a variety of laws, regulations, guidelines and policies, whether in Canada, the European Union, the United States or elsewhere, relating to the cultivation, manufacture, import, export, management, transportation, storage, packaging/labelling, advertising and promotion, sale, health and safety and disposal of cannabis, including, but not limited to, the Cannabis Act, any regulations thereunder, and laws, regulations, guidelines and policies relating to drugs, controlled substances, health and safety, the conduct of operations and the protection of the environment, and applicable stock exchange rules and regulations. Any amendment to or replacement of existing laws, regulations, guidelines or policies may cause adverse effects to the Combined Company’s operations. The risks to the Combined Company’s business represented by subsequent regulatory changes could reduce the addressable market for the Combined Company’s products and could materially and adversely affect the Combined Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

For a detailed discussion of the competition risks applicable to the Combined Company, see the “Highly Regulated Industry” risk factor in Aphria’s annual information form for the year ended May 31, 2020 and Aphria’s management’s discussion & analysis for the three and six months ended November 30, 2020, and “Risks Related to Adult-Use Cannabis” and “Risks Related to the Medical Cannabis Business” risk factors in Tilray’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

The Arrangement is expected to qualify as a “reorganization” under section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. However, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will agree with or not otherwise challenge this position on the tax treatment of the Arrangement, which could result in the Arrangement being treated as a taxable exchange. Neither Aphria nor Tilray has applied for a ruling or received a tax opinion of counsel related to the Arrangement and neither intends to do so.

Since Aphria and its non-U.S. Subsidiaries will become wholly owned Subsidiaries of Tilray after completion of the Arrangement, the profits of Aphria and its Subsidiaries may be subject to U.S. taxation prior to distribution to shareholders, which could increase the effective tax rate on such income. For example, Aphria and its non-U.S. Subsidiaries will become “controlled foreign corporations” under U.S. federal income tax law, which will subject certain types of income to anti-deferral rules. In addition, distributions from Aphria to Tilray may be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding prior to or at the time of distribution to shareholders. This could have the effect of increasing the effective income tax rate applicable to such income in comparison to the current effective income tax rate on Aphria’s income. Post-Arrangement restructuring may help to mitigate this risk, but there can be no guarantee that any such restructuring transactions will not themselves be taxable.

Changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws are proposed regularly and there can be no assurance that, if enacted, any such changes would not have an adverse impact on the Combined Company. For example, President Biden has suggested the reversal or modification of some portions of the 2017 U.S. tax legislation and certain of these proposals, if enacted, could result in a higher U.S. corporate income tax rate than is currently in effect and thereby increase the effective tax rate of the Combined Company following the Arrangement compared to current expectations. There can be no assurance that any such proposed changes will be introduced as legislation, or if they are introduced that they would be enacted, or if enacted what form they would take.

The Aphria Meeting will be held online on April 14, 2021 at 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) via live audio webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/APHA2021 . Online check-in will begin at 3:45 p.m. (Eastern time), and we encourage you to allow ample time for the online check-in procedures. To participate in the Aphria Meeting, Aphria Shareholders will need their unique 16-digit control number included on their Aphria form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable.

At the Aphria Meeting, Aphria Shareholders will be asked:

The Aphria Board unanimously recommends that Aphria Shareholders vote FOR the Aphria Resolution. To be effective, the Aphria Resolution must be approved, with or without variation, by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes cast on the Aphria Resolution by Aphria Shareholders virtually present or represented by proxy at the Aphria Meeting.

The record date for determining the Aphria Shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Aphria Meeting is March 12, 2021. Only Aphria Shareholders of record as of the close of business (Eastern time) on the Aphria Record Date are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Aphria Meeting.

This Circular is furnished by management of Aphria in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the Aphria Meeting to be held online on April 14, 2021 at 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) via live audio webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/APHA2021 , and at any postponements or adjournments of the Aphria Meeting. To participate in the Aphria Meeting, Aphria Shareholders will need their unique 16-digit control number included on their Aphria form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable.

The solicitation of proxies by this Circular is being made by or on behalf of management of Aphria. It is expected that the solicitation will be made primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited by telephone, over the internet or in writing. In addition, Aphria has retained the services of Laurel Hill to solicit proxies for a fee of approximately C$150,000, and Aphria has also agreed to reimburse out-of-pocket expenses of Laurel Hill and to indemnify it against certain liabilities arising out of or in connection with such engagement. The cost of the solicitation will be borne by Aphria.

The quorum for the Aphria Meeting is two or more shareholders or proxyholders holding or representing not less than 10% of the Aphria Shares entitled to be voted at the Aphria Meeting.

Only registered Aphria Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders are entitled to vote at the Aphria Meeting. Each registered Aphria Shareholder has one vote for each Aphria Share held at the close of business on the Aphria Record Date. As of the Aphria Record Date, there were 316,795,419 Aphria Shares outstanding. Non-registered Aphria Shareholders who have not made arrangements for the due appointment of themselves as proxyholder will not be able to vote at the Aphria Meeting but may attend the Aphria Meeting and ask questions.

In all cases, registered Aphria Shareholders must ensure the form of proxy is received at least 48 hours (excluding non-Business Days) before the Aphria Meeting, or the adjournment thereof, at which the form of proxy is to be used.

These meeting materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered Aphria Shareholders. If you are a non-registered Aphria Shareholder and Aphria or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the Intermediary holding on your behalf.

Aphria Shareholders whose Aphria Shares are not registered in their own name are referred to in this Circular as “beneficial Aphria Shareholders”. There are two kinds of beneficial Aphria Shareholders: those who have objected to their name being made known to Aphria (called “OBOs” for Objecting Beneficial Owners) and those who have not objected (called “NOBOs” for Non-Objecting Beneficial Owners).

Aphria can request and obtain a list of their NOBOs from Intermediaries via its transfer agent and can use this NOBO list for distribution of proxy-related materials directly to NOBOs. Aphria has decided not to directly send proxy-related materials to its NOBOs. If you are a NOBO, your Intermediary will have provided to you a voting instruction form. Please return your instructions as specified in the voting instruction form. NOBOs that wish to attend the Aphria Meeting and vote in person (or appoint someone else to attend the Aphria Meeting and vote on such NOBOs’ behalf) can appoint themselves (or someone else) as a proxyholder by following the applicable instructions on the voting instruction form.

Applicable regulatory policy requires intermediaries to seek voting instructions from beneficial Aphria Shareholders. Every Intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions to clients. However, the majority of Intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge. Broadridge typically mails its voting instruction form, which may be scanned, in lieu of the form of proxy. Beneficial Aphria Shareholders will be requested to complete and return the voting instruction form to Broadridge by mail. Alternatively, beneficial Aphria Shareholders can call a toll-free telephone number or access the internet to vote. The toll-free number and website will be provided by Broadridge on its voting instruction form. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Aphria Shares

to be represented at the Aphria Meeting. A beneficial Aphria Shareholder cannot use a voting instruction form to vote Aphria Shares directly at the Aphria Meeting, as the voting instruction form must be returned as directed by Broadridge in advance of the Aphria Meeting in order to have the Aphria Shares voted.

Aphria will arrange for copies of its meeting materials for the Aphria Meeting to be delivered to OBOs and is responsible for paying the fees and costs of Intermediaries for their services in delivering proxy-related materials to OBOs in accordance with National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer. Applicable regulatory policy requires Intermediaries to whom meeting materials have been sent to seek voting instructions from OBOs in advance of the Aphria Meeting. Every Intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return instructions, which should be carefully followed by OBOs in order to ensure that their Aphria Shares are voted at the Aphria Meeting. Often, the form of proxy supplied to an OBO by its Intermediary is identical to that provided to registered Aphria Shareholders. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered Aphria Shareholder how to vote on behalf of the OBO. OBOs are requested to complete and return the voting instruction form in accordance with the instructions set out on that form. The voting instruction form must be returned as directed well in advance of the Aphria Meeting in order to have the Aphria Shares voted. OBOs that wish to attend the Aphria Meeting and vote in person (or appoint someone else to attend the Aphria Meeting and vote on such OBOs’ behalf) can appoint themselves (or someone else) as proxyholder by following the applicable instructions.

Beneficial Aphria Shareholders are not entitled, as such, to vote online at the Aphria Meeting or to deliver a form of proxy. Beneficial Aphria Shareholders should carefully follow the voting instructions they receive, including those on how and when voting instructions are to be provided, in order to have their Aphria Shares voted at the Aphria Meeting.

Beneficial Aphria Shareholders located in the United States who wish to attend, submit questions or vote at the Aphria Meeting or, if permitted, appoint a third party as their proxyholder, must obtain a valid legal proxy from their intermediary. Beneficial Aphria Shareholders located in the United States must follow the instructions from their intermediary included with the legal proxy form and the voting instruction form sent to them, or contact their intermediary to request a legal proxy form if they have not received one. The legal proxy form will be mailed to the person and address written on the voting instruction form. After obtaining a valid legal proxy from their intermediary, the beneficial Aphria Shareholders located in the United States must then submit such legal proxy to Broadridge. Requests for registration from beneficial Aphria Shareholders located in the United States that wish to attend, submit questions or vote at the Aphria Meeting or, if permitted, appoint a third party as their proxyholder must be sent by fax to +1-905-507-7793 or +1-514-281-8911, or, by courier to Broadridge at 2601 14th Avenue, Markham, Ontario, Canada, L3R 0H9, and in both cases, must be labeled as “legal proxy” and received by no later than 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on April 12, 2021. Sufficient time must be given to Broadridge for the mailing and return of the legal proxy by this deadline.

Aphria is holding the Aphria Meeting in a virtual-only format, which will be conducted via live audio webcast online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/APHA2021. Aphria Shareholders will not be able to attend the Aphria Meeting in person. Participating at the Aphria Meeting online enables registered Aphria Shareholders and duly appointed proxyholders (including those acting in accordance with the voting instructions received from beneficial Aphria Shareholders) to vote at the appropriate times during the Aphria Meeting. Guests are able to listen to the Aphria Meeting but are not able to ask questions or vote at the Aphria Meeting.

Aphria expects to hold, to the extent feasible and practical, a live question and answer session in connection with the Aphria Meeting. Questions will be sent to be moderated before being sent to the Chair of the Aphria Meeting. Aphria reserves the right to edit profanity or other inappropriate language, or to exclude questions that are not pertinent to the Aphria Meeting matters or are otherwise inappropriate.

A proxy is a document that authorizes someone else to attend the Aphria Meeting and cast the votes for a registered Aphria Shareholder. Aphria Shareholders who are unable to attend the virtual Aphria Meeting and vote may still vote by appointing a proxyholder.

An Aphria Shareholder has the right to appoint a person (who need not be an Aphria Shareholder) to represent the Aphria Shareholder at the Aphria Meeting other than the persons designated in the form of proxy. To do so, you can appoint either yourself or such other person (other than the named proxyholders) online at www.proxyvote.com using the 16-digit control number provided on the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as this will reduce the risk of any mail disruptions in the current environment and will allow you to share the unique “Appointee Information” you have created with the person you have appointed to represent you at the Aphria Meeting more easily. If you do not designate a proxyholder or appointee when completing your form of proxy, or if you do not provide the exact “Appointee Identification Number” and “Appointee Name” to any other person (other than the named proxyholders) who has been appointed to access and vote at the Aphria Meeting on your behalf, that other person will not be able to access the meeting and vote on your behalf.

If you are a non-registered Aphria Shareholder and wish to virtually attend the Aphria Meeting, participate or vote at the Aphria Meeting, you have to insert your own name in the space provided on the voting instruction form sent to you by your Intermediary AND appoint yourself as your proxyholder, as described above. By doing so, you are instructing your Intermediary to appoint you as proxyholder.

If you have properly filled out, signed and delivered your proxy, then your proxyholder can vote your Aphria Shares for you at the Aphria Meeting. The Aphria Shares represented by the proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions of the Aphria Shareholder on any ballot that may be called for and, if the Aphria

Shareholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Aphria Shares will be voted accordingly. If you sign and return your form of proxy without designating a proxyholder and do not give voting instructions, the Aphria Shares represented by such proxy will be voted FOR the approval of the Aphria Resolution.

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the proxy nominee with respect to any amendments or variations to the matters identified in the Notice of Aphria Meeting and any other matters which may properly come before the Aphria Meeting. If any such amendments or variations are proposed to the matters described in the Notice of Aphria Meeting or if any other matters properly come before the Aphria Meeting, the proxyholder may vote your Aphria Shares as he or she considers best. The Aphria Board is not currently aware of any amendments to the matters to be presented for action at the Aphria Meeting or of any other matters to be presented for action at the Aphria Meeting.

A registered Aphria Shareholder who has submitted a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to it being exercised by: (a) voting again on the internet or by telephone or by any other means permitted by law; or (b) delivering a signed written notice changing their instructions to Chief Legal Officer of Aphria no later than April 13, 2021 (or the Business Day prior to the date of any adjournment, if the Aphria Meeting is adjourned) at 1 Adelaide Street East, Suite 2310, Toronto, ON, M5C 2V9, Attention: Christelle Gedeon, Chief Legal Officer (email: info @aphria.com ) or to the chair of the Aphria Meeting on the day of the Aphria Meeting (or any adjournment, if the Aphria Meeting is adjourned) at chair@aphria.com.

On December 15, 2020, the Tilray Board unanimously approved and declared advisable the Arrangement Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, including the Arrangement, and determined that the Arrangement Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, including the Arrangement, are advisable, fair to and in the best interests of Tilray and its stockholders.

A complete list of Tilray Stockholders entitled to vote at the Tilray Meeting will also be available for inspection during the Tilray Stockholder through the virtual meeting website.

If your Tilray Shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or other nominee together with a voting instruction card. Unless your broker has discretionary authority to vote on certain matters, your broker will not be able to vote your Tilray Shares without instructions from you. Brokers are not expected to have discretionary authority to vote for any of the proposals. To make sure that your vote is counted, you should instruct your broker to vote your shares, following the procedures provided by your broker. Many brokers solicit voting instructions over the Internet or by telephone.

As the beneficial owner, you are also invited to attend the Tilray Meeting. However, you may not vote shares held in street name during the meeting unless you obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from the holder of record (i.e., your broker).

Tilray is holding the Tilray Meeting in a virtual-only format, which will be conducted via live audio webcast online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLRY2021SM. Tilray Stockholders will not be able to attend the Tilray Meeting in person. Participating at the Tilray Meeting online enables registered Tilray Stockholders to vote at the appropriate times during the Tilray Meeting.

To log in to the Tilray Meeting online visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/TLRY2021SM on your smart phone, tablet or computers and check-in using the 16-digit control number included on your Tilray proxy. You should ensure you have a strong preferably high-speed, internet connection wherever you intend to participate in the Tilray Meeting. The Tilray Meeting will begin promptly at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on April 16, 2021; however, it is recommended that you access the Aphria Meeting link online at least 30 minutes prior to the commencement of the Tilray Meeting and test your compatibility using the “ Click Here ” prompt and if necessary upgrade the media player on your device. You will be able to log in 15 minutes before the Tilray Meeting starts.

When successfully authenticated, the information screen will be displayed. You can view information about Tilray, ask questions, vote (where applicable) and listen to the live audio webcast.

Even if you plan to attend the Tilray Meeting, we recommend that you vote in advance, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Tilray Meeting.

If you have properly filled out, signed and delivered your proxy, then your proxyholder can vote your Tilray Shares for you at the Tilray Meeting. The Tilray Shares represented by the proxy will be voted or withheld from voting in accordance with the instructions of the Tilray Stockholder on any ballot that may be called for and, if the Tilray

Stockholder specifies a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the Tilray Shares will be voted accordingly. If a choice is not so specified with respect to any such matter, and the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy have been appointed as proxyholder, the Tilray Shares represented by such proxy will be voted FOR the Tilray Proposals.

The enclosed form of proxy confers discretionary authority upon the proxy nominee with respect to any amendments or variations to the matters identified in the Notice of Tilray Meeting and any other matters which may properly come before the Tilray Meeting. If any such amendments or variations are proposed to the matters described in the Notice of Tilray Meeting or if any other matters properly come before the Tilray Meeting, the proxyholder may vote your Tilray Shares as he or she considers best. The Tilray Board is not currently aware of any amendments to the matters to be presented for action at the Tilray Meeting or of any other matters to be presented for action at the Tilray Meeting.

A registered Tilray Stockholder who has submitted a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to it being exercised. If the Tilray Stockholder is a registered holder, the Tilray Stockholder can do this in one of three ways: First, before the Tilray Meeting, deliver a signed notice of revocation of proxy to the Secretary of Tilray at the address specified below. Second, complete and submit a later-dated Tilray proxy card. Third, attend the Tilray Meeting and vote at the meeting. Attendance at the Tilray Meeting alone will not revoke a previous proxy; rather, the registered Tilray Stockholder must also vote at the Tilray Meeting in order to revoke the previously submitted proxy.

To change proxy directions by mail, Tilray Stockholders should send any notice of revocation or a completed new Tilray proxy card, as the case may be, to Tilray at the following address: Tilray, Inc., c/o Corporate Secretary, 1100 Maughan Road, Nanaimo, BC, Canada, V9X IJ2.

If you have instructed a broker to vote your shares and wish to change your vote, you must follow directions received from your broker to change those instructions.

Shares Beneficially Held by Principal Holders of Securities and Directors and Executive Officers

On the Tilray Record Date, there were 178,841,550 outstanding Tilray Shares. Each Tilray Share carries the right to vote.

To the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of Tilray, no person or corporation beneficially owns, or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, voting securities carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to any class of voting securities of Tilray.

On the Tilray Record Date, directors and executive officers of Tilray and their affiliates beneficially owned and had the right to vote 11,717,651 Tilray Shares, representing approximately 6.6% of the total outstanding Tilray Shares.

On December 15, 2020, Aphria and Tilray entered into the Arrangement Agreement, which sets out the terms and conditions for implementing the Arrangement. The Arrangement Agreement is the result of extensive arm’s length negotiations among Representatives of Aphria and Tilray and their respective legal and financial advisors. The following is a summary of the principal events leading up to the execution and public announcement of the Arrangement Agreement.

The Tilray Board and Tilray senior management team regularly reviews and considers Tilray’s long-term strategic plans and objectives, including business combinations, acquisitions, and other strategic opportunities. As part of this ongoing evaluation, the Tilray Board, together with Tilray’s senior management team, has from time to time considered various opportunities to enhance stockholder value, including the possibility of a strategic combination with other companies in the cannabis industry in order to strengthen its market position and drive cost efficiencies.

Aphria’s overall strategy has been to leverage its scale, expertise and capabilities to drive market share in Canada and internationally in order to achieve industry-leading, profitable growth and build sustainable, long-term shareholder value. In order to ensure long-term sustainable growth, Aphria continues to focus on developing strong capabilities in consumer insights, driving category management leadership and assessing growth opportunities through the introduction of innovative new products, increasing market share, maintaining a strong financial position and managing cost of goods and expenses. In order to be well-positioned to capitalize on the U.S. market should cannabis become federally legal, Aphria is focused on participating in federally permissible activities in the U.S., and is reviewing the landscape and looking to prepare for legalization of cannabis through the purchase of profit generating companies in other industries and converting their existing operations to include cannabis when it is federally legal to do so. In that regard, the key strategic pillars considered by the Aphria Board in respect of any potential acquisition or business combination included: (i) seeking synergies arising from leveraging the Aphria’s low-cost cultivation leadership and economies of scale opportunities in Canada; (ii) improving Aphria’s strategic position in the U.S.; (iii) maximizing Aphria’s opportunities in the rapidly emerging international legal cannabis market; and (iv) positioning the company in the capital markets as a leading global cannabis company, with the scale to attract institutional investors and strategic partners.

Tilray’s senior management team and the Tilray Board were generally familiar with Aphria, its business and its management team, and believed that a potential combination of the two companies at the right time and on appropriate terms could provide an opportunity to enhance stockholder value.

Irwin D. Simon, Aphria’s Chairman and CEO, had become acquainted with Brendan Kennedy, Tilray’s CEO, having met at prior industry conferences. Mr. Simon was also familiar with Andrew Pucher, Tilray’s Chief Corporate Development Officer, from prior discussions regarding the purchase and sale of cannabis between the two companies in early 2019.

In October 2019, a representative from an investment bank active in the cannabis industry and familiar with Aphria’s business and management team, contacted Messrs. Kennedy and Pucher by e-mail, to inquire if they would be interested in taking a meeting with Mr. Simon in New York to discuss the state of the industry and each other’s businesses. Representatives from this investment bank attended certain meetings between Tilray and Aphria between December 2019 and May 2020 but neither Tilray nor Aphria engaged this investment bank in connection with the Arrangement. Messrs. Kennedy and Pucher responded that they were willing to meet with Mr. Simon. As the date of the meeting approached, Mr. Kennedy informed Mr. Simon that he could no longer attend, but Michael Auerbach, a member of the Tilray Board who resides in New York, was able to attend along with Mr. Pucher. The meeting took place on November 22, 2019. Messrs. Simon, Auerbach and Pucher each acknowledged that Tilray’s and Aphria’s Canadian and international operations appeared to be highly complementary and that a combination of the businesses could result in significant new business opportunities and cost and revenue synergies. As a follow up to the meeting, Mr. Simon invited Messrs. Kennedy and Pucher to visit Aphria’s primary cannabis production facilities in Leamington, Ontario, to continue the dialogue.

On November 28, 2019, to facilitate future discussions, a mutual non-disclosure agreement was executed between Aphria and Tilray.

On December 18, 2019, representatives from Aphria and Tilray, including Messrs. Simon, Pucher, Carl Merton, Aphria’s Chief Financial Officer, and Denise Faltischek, Aphria’s Chief Strategy Officer, met in Toronto, Ontario, to discuss the merits of a potential strategic combination.

On January 14, 2020, Mr. Simon and Mr. Kennedy had a conversation in Orlando, Florida to discuss the strategic merits of potentially combining Aphria and Tilray.

On January 21, 2020, representatives of Tilray participated in a tour of the Aphria One and Aphria Diamond facilities in Leamington, Ontario. Representatives from Tilray included Messrs. Kennedy, Pucher, Greg Christopher, Tilray’s Executive Vice President of Operations (former), and Francoise Levesque, Tilray’s Master Horticulturist (former). Representatives from Aphria included Messrs. Simon and Merton, Jim Meiers, Aphria’s Chief Operating Officer and Ms. Faltischek.

Around the same time, Aphria informally engaged Jefferies to evaluate a potential combination with Tilray. Over the years, Jefferies had been both formally and informally engaged by Aphria on various financing and M&A assignments, and Aphria had also periodically consulted with Jefferies on a wide range of strategic and financial topics. Aphria selected Jefferies as financial advisor based on, among other things, Jefferies’ experience and expertise as a financial advisor in a wide variety of transactions, including in the cannabis, food & beverage and consumer products sectors, and Jefferies’ familiarity with Aphria’s business.

Later in January 2020, Tilray informally engaged Cowen to evaluate a potential combination of Tilray and Aphria. Over the years, Cowen had been formally engaged by Tilray on various financing and M&A assignments, and Tilray had also periodically consulted with Cowen on other strategic and financial topics. Tilray selected Cowen as financial advisor based on, among other things, Cowen’s experience and expertise as a financial advisor in a wide variety of transactions, including in the cannabis industry, and Cowen’s familiarity with Tilray’s business.

On February 5, 2020, representatives from Aphria and Tilray management met in Toronto to discuss the strategic rationale underlying a potential combination of the two companies. In attendance from Aphria and Tilray were Messrs. Kennedy, Simon, Merton, Pucher, Mark Castaneda, Tilray’s Chief Financial Officer (former), and Ms. Faltischek. Representatives from Cowen, on behalf of Tilray, and Jefferies, on behalf of Aphria, were also in attendance. During the meeting, Aphria and Tilray senior management teams discussed their standalone businesses in greater detail and outlined key areas where value could be created by combining the businesses. It was agreed that Tilray would draft a non-binding term sheet to further advance the discussions.

On February 10, 2020, representatives of Tilray conducted another tour of the Aphria One and Aphria Diamond facilities in Leamington, Ontario. Representatives from Tilray included Messrs. Kennedy, Jon Levin, Chief Operating Officer, Drew Reynolds, V.P. Operations Canada, and Nick Curton, V.P. Strategic Initiatives. Representatives from Aphria included Messrs. Simon, Merton and Meiers,

On February 12, 2020, Mr. Simon and Mr. Kennedy met in New York to discuss strategy, the culture of the two organizations and potential areas where value could be created by combining the two businesses.

On February 14, 2020, Tilray provided Aphria with an initial draft of a non-binding term sheet regarding a potential combination of the two businesses. Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Simon had a discussion regarding the key components of the draft term sheet and potential next steps. The draft term sheet contemplated, among other things: (i) that the transaction would be structured as an all-stock merger, with shareholders of Tilray and Aphria owning 56% and 44% of the Combined Company, respectively; (ii) a governance structure that would include (A) Mr. Kennedy as CEO and Mr. Simon as Executive Chairman, and (B) a board of directors comprised of 8 members total, 4 directors designated by Tilray and 4 designated by Aphria; (iii) that the Combined Company would be called “Tilray”; and (iv) an exclusivity period through March 2, 2020, which was expected to coincide with the announcement of Tilray’s Q4 2019 earnings. At this point, Tilray’s stock was trading at a higher level than Aphria’s stock.

On February 16, 2020, at a meeting of the Aphria Board, Mr. Simon described the discussions to date with Tilray. The Aphria Board discussed the possible transaction and advised Aphria management to continue to explore a strategic combination between the two companies. On February 17, 2020, Aphria and Tilray entered into an updated mutual non-disclosure agreement. The purpose of the updated mutual non-disclosure document was to include a standstill provision that did not exist in the initial mutual non-disclosure agreement. The standstill provision did not include don’t ask don’t waive provisions.

On February 17, 2020, representatives of Aphria shared feedback on the draft term sheet provided by Tilray. Among other comments, a revised equity ownership split of 55% and 45% for Tilray and Aphria, respectively, was proposed.

On February 21, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting to discuss the potential transaction with Aphria. Members of Tilray management and Tilray’s advisors provided the Tilray Board with an update on recent discussions with Aphria, as well as potential combinations with other potential merger partners or acquisition targets. Tilray management and Tilray’s advisors reviewed the benefits and risks of pursuing a strategic transaction and the risks and merits of continuing as a standalone company. The Tilray Board also discussed key terms of the draft term sheet. The Tilray Board instructed Tilray management to continue to engage with Aphria regarding a potential transaction.

On February 23, 2020, ahead of Tilray’s Q4 2019 earnings, which were to be announced on March 2, 2020, Messrs. Kennedy and Simon had a discussion regarding the potential transaction. During this conversation, Messrs. Kennedy and Simon agreed that following Mr. Simon’s attendance at the next Tilray Board meeting as a previously planned, the parties should put discussions on hold and to re-evaluate as appropriate.

On February 27, 2020, the Tilray Board held a regularly scheduled meeting. During this meeting, a number of quarterly business issues were discussed. Mr. Kennedy invited Mr. Simon to join the meeting and introduce himself and Aphria. Mr. Simon spoke about his background, his perspective on the cannabis industry, and his vision for the two companies should they combine.

On March 18, 2020, at an Aphria Board meeting, Mr. Simon noted that the possible transaction with Tilray would be placed on hold in light of the rapidly changing events related to the COVID-19 global pandemic. However, during the month of March, Messrs. Kennedy and Simon remained in periodic contact via telephone and e-mail. On or about March 25, 2020, as the stock prices of Tilray and Aphria started to converge, Mr. Kennedy suggested to Mr. Simon that an equity ownership split of 50% for Tilray and 50% for Aphria be considered, as such a split would reflect the current market capitalizations of each of the companies. On March 29, 2020, Messrs. Kennedy and Simon had a conversation to discuss how to re-engage on the potential transaction. Among other things, both Messrs. Kennedy and Simon agreed to have their respective management teams share financial information and make themselves available for preliminary due diligence questions to better understand the potential value creation opportunity in combining the two businesses.

On April 3, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting to discuss the status of the potential transaction with Aphria. The Tilray Board discussed the change in the market environment and relative performance of the two companies and agreed to continue discussions on the basis of a 50% / 50% equity ownership split.

On April 7, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. During this meeting, Cowen presented a financial analysis of a potential transaction, reflecting a 50% / 50% equity ownership split. The Tilray Board also discussed the merits of establishing a transaction committee of the Tilray Board (the “Tilray Transaction Committee”) to review strategic alternatives and address any potential conflicts of interest which may arise in connection with an Aphria transaction or any potential strategic alternatives.

On April 10, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. Mr. Pucher presented an update on the M&A market and potential acquisition or merger partners with which Tilray had recently had conversations, beyond Aphria. Mr. Pucher had periodically presented to the Tilray Board during 2019 and 2020 on the M&A market and strategic combinations for the company. During this meeting, Mr. Pucher discussed the potential benefits and drawbacks of various combinations and their potential impact on shareholder value for Tilray Stockholders. Additionally, at this meeting, the formation and membership of the Tilray Transaction Committee was further discussed, and the formation of the Tilray Transaction Committee, consisting of each of the independent directors of Tilray, Rebekah Dopp, Christine St.Clare and Maryscott Greenwood, with Ms. Dopp serving as Chairperson, was approved. Soren Schroder subsequently joined the Tilray Transaction Committee in August 2020 and Ms. Greenwood stepped down from the Committee in September 2020.

On April 24, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. During this meeting, the financial information provided by Aphria was discussed, as well as the impact on such information on valuation in the context of the transaction.

On April 27, 2020, the Tilray and Aphria management teams had a meeting to discuss each other’s business and future prospects. In attendance were Michael Kruteck, Tilray’s Chief Financial Officer, and Mr. Pucher from Tilray and Mr. Merton and Ms. Faltischek from Aphria. Representatives from Jefferies and Cowen also attended the meeting.

On April 29, 2020, the Tilray Transaction Committee held a meeting to discuss a potential transaction between Tilray and Aphria and the current draft of the term sheet. At such meeting, the Tilray Transaction Committee approved the retention of Lowenstein Sandler LLP (“Lowenstein”), as independent legal counsel to the Tilray Transaction Committee.

On May 1, 2020, the Tilray Transaction Committee held a meeting to further discuss the current draft term sheet and to identify and address the qualifications of potential independent financial advisors to the Tilray Transaction Committee.

On May 9, 2020, following a review of proposals from potential independent financial advisors, the Tilray Transaction Committee held a meeting where it selected Imperial to serve as an independent financial advisor to conduct a strategic alternatives analysis review and/or issue a fairness opinion for a future strategic alternatives transaction. Imperial had previously served as financial advisor to Tilray’s special committee in connection with Tilray’s downstream merger transaction in 2019 whereby Privateer Holdings, Inc. (“Privateer”) merged with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Tilray to effect an orderly release of 75 million shares of Tilray common stock held by Privateer. The Tilray Transaction Committee selected Imperial from a group of nationally-recognized financial advisors due to Imperial’s knowledge of Tilray’s business, its experience in the Canadian cannabis industry generally and its favorable fee structure compared to other potential advisors, which was not dependent on the outcome of the strategic alternatives review.

On May 13, 2020, representatives from Tilray and Aphria had a meeting to discuss potential next steps. In attendance were Messrs. Kennedy, Kruteck and Pucher from Tilray and Messrs. Simon, Merton and Ms. Faltischek from Aphria. Representatives from Jefferies and Cowen also attended the meeting. The parties discussed how to move the process forward to get to a position where Aphria would be comfortable providing Tilray with an updated draft term sheet for a potential transaction. It was agreed that the teams would reconvene in the coming days to discuss the financial outlook of the parties and potential cost synergies, following which Aphria anticipated that it would be in a position to provide Tilray with an updated draft term sheet.

On May 15, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. A general update was provided by Messrs. Kennedy and Pucher to the Tilray Board on next steps with Aphria.

On May 19, 2020, representatives from Tilray and Aphria had a meeting to discuss questions arising from the ongoing reciprocal financial due diligence. In attendance were Messrs. Kennedy, Kruteck and Pucher from Tilray and Messrs. Simon, Merton and Ms. Faltischek from Aphria. Representatives from Jefferies and Cowen also attended the meeting.

On May 21, 2020, representatives from Tilray and Aphria had a meeting to discuss potential synergies that could be realized by combining the two companies. In attendance were Messrs. Kruteck and Pucher from Tilray and Mr. Merton and Ms. Faltischek from Aphria. Representatives from Jefferies and Cowen also attended the meeting. Conceptual approaches to categories of synergies were identified during the meeting, but the parties did not reach any agreement on the valuation of synergies during the discussion.

On May 22, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. As part of the overall process with Aphria, the Tilray Board wanted to ensure that Tilray was appropriately exploring all potential avenues for value creation. To this end, Cowen presented its perspective as financial advisor to Tilray on a range of strategic alternatives including: (i) acquiring another licensed producer; (ii) merger or selling control of Tilray to another licensed producer (Aphria or others); (iii) US CBD or THC acquisitions; and (iv) attracting an investment from a strategic or financial party from outside the cannabis industry. It was discussed that, among these alternatives, it was unlikely that a strategic or financial investment would be forthcoming given the current pressure that the industry was facing and the fact that Tilray was still not EBITDA or cash flow positive, US CBD or THC acquisition alternatives were not attractive for Tilray at the current time and that, amongst potential acquisition, merger or sale alternatives among Canadian licensed producers, a combination with Aphria was the most attractive from a strategic and financial point of view for Tilray and its stockholders. Following further discussion, the Tilray Board continued to be supportive of dialogue with Aphria to explore a potential transaction.

During the weekend of May 23/24, 2020, Messrs. Kennedy and Simon had several discussions during which they exchanged views on the financial diligence, potential synergies and cost savings. At this point, as a result of other corporate matters requiring the Aphria management team’s attention, Mr. Simon expressed that his team would have to focus internally. Messrs. Kennedy and Simon agreed to put strategic discussions on hold and to re-evaluate the potential for a transaction in approximately 30 days.

On May 27, 2020, the Tilray Transaction Committee executed an engagement letter to formally retain Imperial as independent financial advisor to conduct a strategic alternatives analysis review of potential transactions and to issue a fairness opinion to the Tilray Board in connection with a future strategic alternatives transaction.

On June 8, 2020, the Aphria Board held a meeting at which Mr. Simon informed the Aphria Board that discussions with Tilray had been put on hold and provided an update on other strategic opportunities available to Aphria.

Over the months of June and July 2020, there were periodic conversations between Messrs. Kennedy and Simon. However, no substantive progress was made on a potential transaction. During this period, the Tilray Transaction Committee continued to meet to discuss the review of strategic alternatives in addition to the potential transaction with Aphria or other industry participants.

On July 13, 2020, the Aphria Board held a meeting at which Mr. Simon re-iterated that discussions with Tilray remained on hold but that Tilray remained interested in re-engaging in discussions. In addition, Mr. Simon informed the Aphria Board that a third party (“Company A”) had contacted Aphria and proposed engaging in exploratory discussions regarding a potential strategic alliance or business combination.

On August 17, 2020, a meeting between Messrs. Kennedy and Simon occurred. During this meeting, it was discussed that Aphria had engaged in conversations with other strategic parties regarding a potential combination but was still interested in engaging in discussions with Tilray regarding a potential transaction. Messrs. Kennedy and Simon then discussed next steps to re-engage, including reciprocal site tours.

Between August 20, 2020, and August 25, 2020, the Tilray Transaction Committee held five meetings to discuss the re-engagement of discussions between Tilray and Aphria and further analyze strategic alternatives. The Tilray Transaction Committee also developed, and reviewed with management and the Tilray Board, strategic transaction policy guidelines to instruct all transaction participants on the avoidance of and disclosure of conflicts of interest in connection with the strategic alternatives review.

On August 25, 2020, representatives of Aphria toured Tilray’s Nanaimo, British Columbia facility, followed by a tour of Aphria’s Broken Coast facility. Representatives from Tilray included Mr. Joshua Eades, Tilray’s Chief Scientific Officer. Representatives from Aphria included Mr. Merton and Mr. Grame Holfeld.

On August 31, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. The agenda included an update from Mr. Pucher on other potential transaction alternatives beyond Aphria. Mr. Pucher reviewed the strategic landscape and summarized Tilray management’s view of other potential transactions given recent dialogue that Tilray management had with selected other large cap and mid cap licensed producers. The Tilray Board was advised that ultimately, in Tilray management’s judgment, the transaction with Aphria still represented the most attractive alternative for long-term value creation for Tilray Stockholders. In addition, at the same meeting, the Tilray Board approved the Tilray Transaction Committee’s proposed strategic transaction policy guidelines to instruct all transaction participants on the avoidance of, and disclosure of, conflicts of interest.

During the first two weeks of September, several meetings took place between Messrs. Kennedy and Simon regarding key aspects of a potential term sheet that Aphria had discussed submitting to Tilray.

On September 9, 2020, the Aphria Board held a meeting at which Mr. Simon provided an update on the strategic opportunities available to Aphria. The Aphria Board was supportive of Aphria management continuing to engage in discussions with respect to these opportunities.

On September 15, 2020, Mr. Simon shared a revised draft term sheet with Mr. Kennedy. The draft term sheet contemplated, among other things: (i) an equity ownership split of 62.5% for Aphria and 37.5% for Tilray, which

implied an at-market transaction with no premium for Tilray Stockholders; and (ii) a condition to execution of definitive agreements that Tilray secure commitments from its convertible noteholders to exchange US$200 million of the outstanding Tilray notes into equity. The proposed ownership splits of 62.5% / 37.5% contemplated the dilution from the convertible note exchange.

On September 16, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. A copy of the draft term sheet was shared with the Tilray Board and discussed in detail. Cowen was in attendance and discussed the impact of the revised terms on Tilray Stockholders from a financial point of view and the requirement of a note exchange.

On September 17, 2020, the Tilray Board held a meeting. During this meeting, a counterproposal to the draft of the term sheet provided by Aphria on September 15, 2020 was discussed. The counterproposal included, among other things an equity ownership split of 58% for Aphria and 42% for Tilray and inclusive of an assumed debt-for-equity exchange of US$150 million of Tilray’s convertible notes.

On September 18, 2020, the Aphria Board held a meeting. At this meeting, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP (“Fasken”), legal counsel to Aphria, reviewed Aphria’s conflicts of interest policy, including the conflict of interest questionnaire completed by each office and director to identify any conflict of interest, with the Aphria Board and advised the Aphria Board of its obligations and responsibilities in the context of M&A transactions. Following discussion, the Aphria Board established the Aphria Transaction Advisory Committee, which was comprised of the following independent directors: Mr. Tomas Looney, Ms. Renah Persofsky and Mr. Walter Robb. The mandate of the Aphria Transaction Advisory Committee included: (i) providing guidance and oversight to Aphria management on the terms and conditions, diligence and analysis of any potential transaction and overseeing and supervising management’s negotiation and discussions of such potential transactions; and (ii) providing advice and guidance to the Aphria Board in respect of matters related to such potential transactions. During the same meeting, Jefferies presented the Aphria Board with an analysis of: (a) the non-binding term sheet received from Company A on September 13, 2020; (b) the non-binding term sheet provided to Tilray on September 15, 2020; and (c) the proposed terms of the transaction with SweetWater. At this meeting, the Aphria Board engaged in a discussion with respect to each of the potential transactions. Based on this discussion, the Aphria Board was of the view that the potential transaction with Company A was not as attractive as the potential transaction with Tilray since the proposed Company A transaction undervalued Aphria’s contribution to the combined entity. Accordingly, the Aphria Board instructed Aphria management to inform Company A that it was not interested in pursuing a transaction on the terms presented to Aphria. With respect to the potential of each of the Tilray and SweetWater transactions, the Aphria Board instructed Aphria management to continue its discussions with Tilray and SweetWater, respectively. Between September 23, 2020 and October 23, 2020, Aphria and Company A engaged in discussions regarding the terms of a potential transaction and the Aphria Transaction Advisory Committee and the Aphria Board were kept apprised of the status of those discussions.

At this meeting, the Aphria Transaction Advisory Committee also discussed the potential transaction with Tilray and considered Aphria management’s view that the acquisition of Tilray would assist Aphria with its U.S. strategy, provide access to European markets through Tilray’s presence in Portugal, allow for Cannabis 2.0 product extensions, and create potential synergies with Aphria’s existing facilities. The Aphria Transaction Advisory Committee expressed the view that the potential acquisition of SweetWater and the business combination with Tilray would create more value for Aphria and its stakeholders than a transaction with Company A.

On October 25, 2020, the Aphria Board held a meeting to receive an update from Aphria management on the status of each of the potential transactions under consideration and a summary of the discussions that had occurred with the Aphria Transaction Advisory Committee.
