SNDL and Nova Cannabis Complete the Assignment of Dutch Love Stores to Nova Cannabis

This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the prospectus supplement of Nova Cannabis Inc. dated July 22, 2022, to its short form base shelf prospectus dated June 27, 2022.

CALGARY, AB, May 9, 2024 /CNW/ - SNDL Inc. (Nasdaq: SNDL) ("SNDL") and Nova Cannabis Inc. (TSX: NOVC) ("Nova") today announced that they have completed the assignment of SNDL's rights to own or operate four Dutch Love stores (the "Dutch Love Stores") to Nova (the "Assignment"), upon the terms announced on April 1, 2024.

"This is a key step in our strategy for growth and focus on prime real estate," said Marcie Kiziak, Nova's Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited to transition these stores to the Value Buds banner, marking our entry into the B.C. market. We are confident that our Value Buds banner is exceptionally well-positioned to fill a critical gap in the marketplace. This move aligns perfectly with our objective for smart, value-driven expansion."

As consideration for the Assignment, Nova issued to SNDL $8.179 million of Nova shares based on the 20-day VWAP of the Nova shares on March 28, 2024. The addition of the Dutch Love Stores brings Nova's total store count to 99 and SNDL's direct and indirect cannabis store count across all retail banners to 188.
