Manolos further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the CGI Shares, and on requirements relating to CGI which are outside of Manolos’ control, and which CGI is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

Section 3.08       Accredited and Sophisticated Purchaser. Manolos is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Manolos is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Manolos is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the CGI Shares. If other than an individual, Manolos also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the CGI Shares.

Section 3.09       No General Solicitation. Neither Manolos nor any of his agents or partners has either directly or indirectly, including through a broker or finder (a) engaged in any general solicitation with respect to the offer and sale of the CGI Shares, or (b) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the CGI Shares.

ARTICLE IV
Representations and warranties of CGI

CGI represents and warrants to Manolos that the statements contained in this Article IV are true and correct as of the date hereof.

CGI has full corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which CGI is a party, to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery by CGI of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to which CGI is a party, the performance by CGI of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation by CGI of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of CGI. This Agreement and each Transaction Document constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of CGI enforceable against CGI in accordance with their respective terms.

Section 4.02       Valid Issuance of CGI Shares. The CGI Shares, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms and for the consideration set forth in this Agreement, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer under this Agreement, applicable state and federal securities laws and liens or encumbrances created by or imposed by Manolos. Based in part on the accuracy of the representations of Manolos in Article 3 of this Agreement and applicable federal and state securities laws, the offer, sale and issuance of the CGI Shares to be issued pursuant to and in conformity with the terms of this Agreement will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

Section 4.03       No Conflicts; Consents. The execution, delivery, and performance by CGI of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not: (a) violate or conflict with any provision of the articles of incorporation, bylaws, or other governing documents of CGI; (b) violate or conflict with any provision of any Law or Governmental Order applicable to CGI; or (c) require the consent, notice, declaration, or filing with or other action by any Person or require any Permit or Governmental Order.

Section 4.04       Investment Purpose. CGI is acquiring the Shares solely for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof or any other security related thereto within the meaning of the Securities Act. CGI acknowledges that the offer and sale of the Shares are not registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and that the Shares may not be pledged, transferred, sold, offered for sale, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom and subject to state securities laws and regulations, as applicable.

EXHIBIT A

JOINDER AGREEMENT

Reference is hereby made to the Shareholders Agreement, dated June 5, 2020, (as amended from time to time, the “Shareholders Agreement”), by and among Alan Tsai, Edward Manolos, Cannabis Global, Inc., Betterworld Ventures, LLC, Marijuana Company of America, Inc. and Natural Plant Extract of California, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”). Pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 3.01(d) and 4.01(e) of the Shareholders Agreement, the undersigned hereby agrees that upon the execution of this Joinder Agreement, it shall become a party to the Shareholders Agreement and shall be fully bound by, and subject to, all of the covenants, terms and conditions of the Shareholders Agreement as though an original party thereto and shall be deemed to be a Shareholder of the Company for all purposes thereof.

Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Shareholders Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of January 27, 2021.

EXHIBIT B

SECTION 6.01 TO COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Section 6.01 Treatment of Existing Debt. As of the Closing Date, Company has outstanding debt of approximately $1,322,357 pursuant to the instruments, loans and expense reimbursement obligations described in Nos. 1-9 of Section 4.06 of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Outstanding Debt”). The Parties wish to clarify the treatment and payment obligations for the Outstanding Debt as of the Closing Date and thereafter as follows:

(a)               The Outstanding Debt is an obligation of Company and repayment shall be made by Company.

(b)              The Outstanding Debt was incurred prior to the Closing Date and prior to CGI’s investment in and involvement with Company.

(c)               At Closing, the Shares acquired by CGI shall equal forty percent (40%) (the “CGI Percentage”) of Company’s outstanding capital stock on a fully diluted basis, taking into account outstanding options, warrants and other promises of equity issued to any Person (“Fully-Diluted Equity”).

(d)              From time to time the CGI Percentage shall be adjusted to the extent CGI acquires additional shares, or shares are issued to other investors, employees, consultants, partners or shareholders.

(e)               To the extent Company is unable to repay the Outstanding Debt when due and the applicable creditors commence a default action against Company, CGI at its option may unilaterally negotiate a settlement and pay off such Outstanding Debt (“Pay-Off Amount”) and increase its common stock position in Company based on a valuation of Company’s business performed by an independent third-party appraisal firm experienced in valuations of companies engaged in cannabis manufacturing and distribution^[1] (the “Valuation”), with the price per share of Company’s capital stock and CGI’s increased equity position determined according to the following formulae:

Valuation / Fully-Diluted Equity = Price Per Share

Pay-Off Amount / Price Per Share = New Shares to CGI

^[1] Such independent third-party appraisal firm to be mutually agreed between Company and CGI. In the event the Parties are unable to agree on an independent third-party appraiser within fifteen (15) days of first notice, the appraisal issue shall be submitted to JAMS’ San Diego office for the appointment by JAMS of such independent qualified appraiser to decide, without any right of appeal and after a hearing and the submission of evidence, the appraisal price.

As an example, assume CGI pays off all the Outstanding Debt. If the appraiser returns a valuation of Company’s business at $6,000,000 and there are 6,000,000 shares outstanding on a fully-diluted based, new shares issued to CGI would be 1,322,357 based on the following:

$6,000,000 / 6,000,000 = $1.00 per share

$1,322,357 / $1.00 = 1,322,357 new shares

(f)                In any fiscal year that Company determines to distribute to shareholders a dividend or other distribution, Company profits shall be first be calculated without regard to Outstanding Debt payments made by Company in that fiscal year on the Outstanding Debt (“Net Profits Before Debt”). If there are sufficient Net Profits Before Debt, such dividend or other distribution shall be made as follows:

(i)                 First, the CGI Percentage of such Net Profits Before Debt approved for distribution shall go to CGI.

(ii)              Second, the remaining Net Profits approved for distribution shall be reduced by payments for that prior fiscal year on the Outstanding Debt (“Net Profits After Debt”); and

(iii)            Third, any remaining Net Profits After Debt after taking into account subparagraphs (f)(i) and (f)(ii) above shall be distributed to the other shareholders.

As an example, assume:

The proposed dividends would be paid as follows:

First, CGI would receive $40,000 based on $100,000 Net Profits Before Debt multiplied by the CGI Percentage (currently 40%);

Second, the remaining $60,000 available would be reduced by the amount of Outstanding Debt payments in year 1 ($50,000) leaving $10,000 as Net Profits After Debt; and

Third, the $10,000 Net Profits After Debt would be distributed to the other shareholders of Company as a cash dividend, pro rata.

(g)               Upon any Sale Event (as defined below) of Company:

(i)                 The Shares shall have a liquidation preference that calculates net proceeds to shareholders prior to pay-off of the Outstanding Debt and distributes to CGI the CGI Percentage of such pre-Outstanding Debt net proceeds prior to payments to any other shareholder; and

(ii)              The other shareholders shall receive the remainder, if any, of the proceeds after taking into account pay-off of the Outstanding Debt.

As an example, assume if in year 5:

The proceeds to shareholders would be paid as follows:

First, CGI’s distribution of net proceeds would assume the $500,000 Outstanding Debt did not exist and CGI would receive $1,800,000 based on the following:

($4,000,000 + $500,000) * 0.40 = $1,800,000

This amount = 45% of the $4,000,000 actually available for distribution

Second, the other shareholders would share $2,200,000 based on the following:

$4,000,000 - $1,800,000 = $2,200,000

This amount = 55% of the $4,000,000 available for distribution

(h)              Within forty-five (45) days of closing, Company shall amend its charter to reflect paragraphs (f) and (g) above.

(i)                 Within thirty (30) days of Closing, Company shall make good faith efforts to renegotiate the Outstanding Debt to extend maturity dates, implement reasonable payment schedules, and eliminate references to debt payments being made from a percentage of net profits.

For purposes of this Section 6.01, “Sale Event” means any of:

A.                a merger or consolidation in which (i) Company is a constituent party or (ii) a subsidiary of Company is a constituent party and Company issues shares of its capital stock pursuant to such merger or consolidation, except any such merger or consolidation involving Company or a subsidiary in which the shares of capital stock of Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to represent, or are converted into or exchanged for equity securities that represent, immediately following such merger or consolidation, at least a majority, by voting power, of the equity securities of (1) the surviving or resulting party or (2) if the surviving or resulting party is a wholly owned subsidiary of another party immediately following such merger or consolidation, the parent of such surviving or resulting party; provided that, for the purpose of this definition, all shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation or upon conversion of preferred outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation shall be deemed to be outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation and, if applicable, deemed to be converted or exchanged in such merger or consolidation on the same terms as the actual outstanding shares of common stock are converted or exchanged; or

B.                 the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, by Company or any subsidiary of Company of all or substantially all the assets of Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, or, if substantially all of the assets of Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole are held by such subsidiary or subsidiaries, the sale or disposition (whether by merger or otherwise) of one or more subsidiaries of Company, except where such sale, lease, transfer or other disposition is to Company or one or more wholly owned subsidiaries of Company.
