Pursuant to the 2025 NPA, Subsidiary Borrowers issued by way of private placement senior secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to US$2,000,000 (the “2025 Bridge Notes”) to the holders with a maturity date of June 1, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”). The 2025 Bridge Notes bear interest at the rate of 10% if the note is identified as a funded note or does not bear interest if the note is identified as an in-kind note.
The 2025 Bridge Notes are secured by a security interest in all of the assets of the Subsidiary Borrowers. This security interest is subordinate to the security interest in certain assets that were pledged by Jupiter to secure a revolving credit facility. In addition, the proceeds of any substantial asset sales shall be applied to repay amounts owed to Smoore Shenzhen Technology Limited. The 2025 Bridge Notes are also guaranteed by the Company and all subsidiaries of the Company. The equity interests in all subsidiaries of the Company have also been pledged as security for the obligations under the 2025 Bridge Notes.
The 2025 NPA includes affirmative and negative covenants, events of default, representations and warranties that are customary for debt securities of this type. The 2025 Bridge Notes may be accelerated and all remedies may be exercised by the holders in case of an event of default under the 2023 Bridge Notes, which includes events that customarily constitute an event of default for debt securities of this type as well as upon a change of control, the termination of Tim Conder’s employment with the Company for any reason and the failure by the Company to appoint a replacement for Mr. Conder within 90 days that is approved to the Noteholder Representative or any event of default under the Secured Note Purchase Agreement dated as of November 1, 2019, as amended by the First Amendment to Secured Note Purchase Agreement dated as of February 15, 2023, by and among the Subsidiary Borrowers, the Company, Noteholder Representative, Noteholders and AP Noteholders (as defined therein) (as amended, the “2019 NPA”).
In addition, pursuant to the 2025 NPA, the Company agreed to keep the number of directors on the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) at five, of which two directors will be designated by the Noteholder Representative. The Company has also agreed to permit the Noteholder Representative or its designee to attend all meetings of the Board in a non-voting observer capacity. Such person shall be subject to customary confidentiality obligations.
Mark Scatterday, a former director of the Company and a beneficial owner of greater than five percent of the Company’s securities, through an affiliated entity, Mak One LLLP, holds US$990,000 in principal amount of the 2025 Bridge Notes. Mr. Scatterday, through his direct or indirect ownership of the Company’s common shares and securities convertible into common shares, beneficially owns approximately 21.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares.

Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership
On November 7, Item the Company announced it has reached agreement with the holders (the “Noteholders”) of senior secured notes of the Company (the “Senior Notes”), and that the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”) has issued an initial order (“Initial Order”) granting the Company protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-36, as amended (“CCAA”). The Initial Order provides for, among other things: (i) a stay of proceeding in favor of the Company and (ii) the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers to serve as monitor (“Monitor”) during the restructuring (the “Restructuring Process”).
Through the Restructuring Process, the Company intends to seek approval of and implement a plan of arrangement (the “Plan”) that will take the Company private by cancelling all existing equity interests and issuing equity to the Noteholders. Other creditors of the Company will be unaffected. TILT anticipates seeking permission to hold a meeting of the Noteholders to vote on the Plan at a later hearing anticipated to be on November 17, 2025. The proposed Restructuring Process is the result of agreements reached with Noteholders representing a significant majority of the outstanding Senior Notes, the Board’s evaluation of the Company’s financial situation, the Board’s consideration of all alternatives available to the Company and the Board’s consultation with the Company’s legal and financial advisors. Based on such evaluation, consideration and consultations, the Board has determined that the proposed Restructuring Process and the Plan is in the best interests of the Company and all of its stakeholders.
Mark Scatterday, Robert Crompton and Deyong Wang, a beneficial owner of greater than five percent of the Company’s securities, are participating in the Restructuring Process as Noteholders. Mr. Wang through his direct or indirect ownership of the Company’s common shares and securities convertible into common shares, beneficially owns approximately 8.46% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares.
The Company has notified Cboe Canada of the foregoing and expects that its common shares, no par value per share, will cease trading on Cboe Canada and OTCID. The Company expects to cease reporting as a public reporting company.
