| CHAPTER IX |
| Cannabis Industry Risk Factors |
| Companies in the cannabis industry are subject to many risks. The realization of one or more of these |
| risks could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations of a company and |
| on its lenders, investors and principals. The following discussion highlights some, but not all, of these |
| Risks Related to U.S. Federal Law |
| • The manufacture, distribution, dispensing and possession of cannabis are strictly controlled |
| under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), irrespective of whether such activities comply with |
| applicable state law. Financial transactions in connection with cannabis-related violations of |
| the CSA may violate other federal laws. Individuals and businesses — including the principals, |
| employees, directors, agents, lenders and investors of such businesses — that violate the CSA or |
| such other laws are subject to fines, asset seizure and imprisonment under federal law. |
| • Federal statutes and policies that currently restrict or deprioritize enforcement of certain CSA |
| violations related to cannabis are subject to expiration, rescission and other changes. There can |
| be no assurance that in the future the federal government will not strictly and aggressively enforce |
| cannabis-related CSA provisions. |
| • If CSA controls applicable to cannabis are relaxed or repealed in the future, other federal laws |
| and regulations governing the production, distribution and marketing of products for human |
| consumption, such as the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, may be more strictly enforced |
| by the federal government in relation to the cannabis industry. |
| • CSA controls and federal enforcement priorities applicable to cannabis both preclude interstate |
| commerce in cannabis and cannabis products. As a result, it can be costly or impractical for |
| companies in the cannabis industry to operate in multiple states and to gain economies of scale |
| through centralized operations. |
