WEST ISLAND PARTIAL REVOCATION OF FFCTO

West Island Brands Inc. is in receipt of an order to partially revoke the FFCTO (failure-to-file cease trade order) from its principal regulator, the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC).

On May 5, 2023 , the OSC issued a Cease Trade Order (the "FFCTO") in respect of the securities of the Company for failure to file certain documents which included (i) the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, (ii) the accompanying management discussion and analysis relating to the audited annual financial statements for year ended December 31, 2022, and (iii) certification in respect of the audited annual financial statements for year ended December 31, 2022, as required by National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings. The purpose of seeking the partial revocation of the FFCTO is to enable the Company to complete a small private placement. The use of funds from this capital raise are to resolve outstanding fees, prepare and complete audited financial statements for year end December 31, 2022, and to pay all other costs associated with an application for a full revocation of the FFCTO. The Company intends to complete and file all unfiled continuous disclosure documents and apply for a full revocation of the FFCTO following the completion of the private placement.

As per the Partial Revocation Order issued, the Company intends to raise funds by means of a non-brokered private placement ("Private Placement") consisting of up to 2,051,282 units ("Units") at a price of $0.0975 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $200,000.00. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share ("Common Share") in the capital of the Company and one Common Share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share for a period of 24 months from the closing date at an exercise price of $0.13 per Warrant.

Prior to completion of the Private Placement, each subscriber to the Private Placement will receive a copy of the FFCTO and the Partial Revocation Order, and will be required to provide a signed and dated acknowledgement to the Company that all of the Company's securities, including the securities issued in the Private Placement, will remain subject to the FFCTO until such order is fully revoked, and that the granting of the Partial Revocation Order by the OSC does not guarantee the issuance of a full revocation order in the future.

The Partial Revocation Order, which was granted on November 30, 2023, will terminate on the earlier of the completion of the Private Placement and 60 days from date of the Partial Revocation Order. All issuances hereunder remain subject to any required approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE").
