Corporate Governance Highlights
New and Updated Governance Policies
The Board has continued to maintain and has updated existing policies after completing a thorough review of its corporate governance practices, including adopting an advance notice by-law (as described below) and updating the Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy to clarify the definitions and refine the language regarding gifts, entertainment, hospitality and charitable contributions. For more on the corporate governance policies and charters, see page 28.
Board Orientation and Continuing Education
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 (“Fiscal 2026”), the Board was offered four education sessions, one of which was presented by external advisors and three of which were presented by various Company business units. These included sessions on key considerations and risks in respect of mergers and acquisitions, updates on the U.S. cannabis regulatory roadmap and rescheduling, and competitive landscape and legislative changes of the international cannabis landscape, as well as an in-depth review of the innovation pipeline for the Canadian adult-use market. For more on continuing education of the Board, see “Board of Directors, Committees and Governance − Orientation and Continuing Education” on page 30.
Director Engagement with Shareholders
The Company values input from its Shareholders and is respectful of their right to communicate any concerns they may have to leadership of the Company. Considering the above, Shareholders or other interested parties may arrange to communicate directly with members of the Board or committees of the Board, the Chair of the Board, a Chair of a committee of the Board or the Board or committees of the Board as a group by writing to them in the care of the Board of Directors, Canopy Growth Corporation, 1 Hershey Drive, Smiths Falls, ON, K7A 3K8. We will forward all such communications (other than unsolicited advertising materials) to the applicable members of the Board or committees of the Board. The Company reserves the right to edit profanity or other inappropriate language, or to exclude questions that are not pertinent to Board or committee matters or that are otherwise inappropriate.

Compensation Strategy and Decisions
Executive Compensation Decisions in Fiscal 2026
The Corporate Governance, Compensation and Nominating Committee (“CGCN Committee”) recommends to the Board the Company’s approach to executive compensation, including the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and his direct reports. Following a comprehensive review of our compensation philosophy, policies and incentive programs in Fiscal 2026, the Company continued to apply its enhanced approach to executive compensation in a challenging Fiscal 2026 environment.
Short-Term Incentives
In Fiscal 2026, the CGCN Committee approved a performance-based bonus for our NEOs (as defined below under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis”), totaling 110.4% of target. This decision is grounded in notable achievements: with 24.2% against the Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) target and 61.5% against the revenue target, which were impacted by broader industry headwinds and continued market volatility. Despite these financial challenges, the Company delivered on key corporate objectives at 195.1% against target.
The corporate objectives established and certified by the CGCN Committee as having been achieved at a superior level which included cash management, new product development, and sourcing of product internationally. These priorities were designed to drive long-term sustainability and align operations with the Company’s strategic plan. The executive teams’ performance in these areas was critical to maintaining operational discipline, fostering innovation, and positioning the Company for future growth.
Although the financial metrics fell below target, the approved STIP (as defined below under the heading “Short Term Incentives”) payout reflects a balanced view of performance across all metrics, recognizes the executive team’s strategic contributions during a complex fiscal year, and supports ongoing talent retention and alignment with shareholder interests.
Long-Term Incentives
All NEOs who were employed by the Company at the start of Fiscal 2026 participated in the Company’s long-term incentive program. For Fiscal 2026, the Company’s long-term incentive program consisted exclusively of restricted stock units and stock options. The Company’s long-term incentive program is designed to align executive compensation with long-term shareholder value creation and to support the retention of key talent through equity-based awards.
In connection with his appointment as Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Mr. Stewart received an additional equity award outside of the Company’s annual grant cycle. This award was provided to align his compensation with the scope and responsibilities of the CFO role and is consistent with the Company’s approach to executive transitions.
Conclusion
The Board aims to provide clear and comprehensive disclosure of the Company’s oversight and decision making. We continue to welcome any feedback as the Board and the Company continue to evolve.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
As permitted by the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Canadian securities regulators, the Company is providing meeting-related materials to Shareholders over the Internet (rather than in paper form) in accordance with the rules of the SEC and the “notice-and-access” provisions provided for under National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer (“NI 54-101”). This means that, rather than receiving paper copies of the proxy materials in connection with the Meeting in the mail, Shareholders will have access to them online.
The Notice of Internet Availability will explain how to access the Notice of Meeting, this Proxy Statement and our 2026 Annual Report (collectively, the “proxy materials”) on the Internet. Electronic copies of the Notice of Internet Availability and the proxy materials will be available at www.canopygrowth.com/investors/investor-events/annual-general-and-special-meeting-2026. In addition, Shareholders will be able to request copies of the Company’s interim financial statements and the related management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”). The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026 (“Fiscal 2026”) and March 31, 2025 (“Fiscal 2025”) and the related MD&A, are available on the Company’s website at www.canopygrowth.com/investors/earnings. All of the above-noted materials are available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Shareholders are reminded to review these online materials when voting. Electronic copies of the proxy materials in connection with the Meeting will be available on the Company’s website for a period of one year.

In order for Shareholders to receive the paper copies of the proxy materials in advance of any deadline for the submission of voting instructions and the date of the Meeting, it is recommended to request materials using one of the methods above as soon as possible but not later than September 11, 2026.
The Notice of Internet Availability also explains how you may request that we send future proxy materials to you by e-mail or in printed form by mail. If you choose the e-mail option, you will receive an e-mail next year with links to those materials and to the proxy voting website. We encourage you to choose this e-mail option, which will allow us to provide you with the information you need in a timelier manner, will save us the cost of printing and mailing documents to you and will conserve natural resources. Your election to receive proxy materials by e-mail or in printed form by mail will remain in effect until you terminate it.
If you are a non-registered Shareholder, you will not receive a Notice of Internet Availability directly from us, but your Intermediary (as defined below) will forward you a notice with instructions on accessing our proxy materials and directing that organization how to vote your Shares, as well as other options that may be available to you for receiving our proxy materials.
Solicitation of Proxies
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the management of the Company for use at the Meeting, to be held on September 25, 2026, at the time and place and for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting. It is expected that the solicitation will primarily be by mail. Canopy Growth will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing these proxy materials and soliciting votes. We may reimburse brokerage firms, custodians, nominees, fiduciaries and other persons representing beneficial owners for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation material to those beneficial owners. Our directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person or by other means. These directors, officers and employees will not receive additional compensation but may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in doing so.
In addition, Canopy Growth has engaged the services of Sodali & Co., (“Sodali”), a professional proxy solicitation firm, to aid in the solicitation of proxies from Shareholders in connection with the Meeting. Canopy Growth will pay Sodali project management fees plus reimbursement for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses estimated to total C$250,000.

Appointing a Proxyholder
The persons named in the enclosed proxy form are directors or officers of Canopy Growth designated by management of Canopy Growth. A registered Shareholder has the right to appoint as proxyholder a person or company (who need not be a Shareholder) other than the persons already named by management of the Company in the enclosed proxy form to attend and act on such registered Shareholder’s behalf at the Meeting. Such right may be exercised by inserting the name of the chosen proxyholder and providing a unique appointee identification number for their appointee to access the Meeting, either online at www.proxyvote.com using the 16-digit control number provided, or, using the proxy form and returning the completed form in the pre-addressed return envelope provided for that purpose, to Broadridge no later than 1:00 p.m. Toronto time on September 23, 2026. You must provide your appointee with the exact name and eight-character appointee identification number to access the Meeting. Appointees can only be validated at the virtual Meeting using the exact name and eight-character appointee identification number you enter.
If you do not create an eight-character appointee identification number, your appointee will not be able to access the Meeting.
Instructing your Proxy and Exercise of Discretion by your Proxy
You may indicate on your form of proxy how you wish your proxyholder to vote your Shares. To do this, simply mark the appropriate boxes on the form of proxy. If you do this, your proxyholder must vote your Shares in accordance with the instructions you have given.
If you sign your proxy form but do not give any instructions as to how to vote on a particular issue to be decided at the Meeting, your proxyholder can vote your Shares as he or she thinks fit. If you have appointed the persons designated in the form of proxy as your proxyholder they will, unless you give contrary instructions, vote in accordance with the recommendations of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”). The Board recommends that Shareholders vote as follows:
1.
FOR” the election of each of the five director Nominees (as defined below) named in this Proxy Statement;
2.
FOR” the PKFOD Re-Appointment Proposal;
3.
FOR” the Share Consolidation Proposal;
4.
FOR” the Advance Notice By-Law Proposal;
5.
FOR” the Renewal of Omnibus Incentive Plan Proposal;
6.
FOR” the Say-on-Pay Proposal; and
7.
For the option of having future “say-on-pay” votes every “1 Year” with respect to the Say-on-Frequency Proposal.
Further details about these matters are set out in this Proxy Statement. If any matters other than those referred to in the Notice of Meeting properly come before the Meeting, the individuals named in the
4

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
accompanying proxy form will vote the proxies held by them in accordance with their best judgment. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, management is not aware of any business other than the items referred to in the Notice of Meeting that will be considered at the Meeting.
Revoking your Proxy
If you want to revoke your proxy after you have delivered it, you can do so at any time before the cut-off period noted in the paragraph below. You may do this by (a) attending the Meeting and voting if you were a registered Shareholder at the Record Date; (b) signing and delivering a proxy bearing a later date; (c) signing a written statement which indicates, clearly, that you want to revoke your proxy and delivering this signed written statement to the registered office of the Company at 1 Hershey Drive, Smiths Falls, Ontario, K7A 0A8, Attention: Chief Legal Officer; or (d) in any other manner permitted by law.
Your proxy will only be revoked if a revocation is received by 4:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the last business day before the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, or delivered to the Chair of the Meeting at invest@canopygrowth.com before it commences. If you revoke your proxy and do not replace it with another that is deposited with the Company before the deadline, you can still vote your Shares, but to do so you must attend the Meeting.
Non-Registered Shareholders
The information set forth in this section is of significant importance to Shareholders who do not hold Shares in their own name (“non-registered Shareholders”). If your Shares are not registered in your own name, they will be held in the name of an Intermediary, usually a bank, trust company, securities dealer or other financial institution and, as such, your Intermediary will be the entity legally entitled to vote your Shares and must seek your instructions as to how to vote your Shares.
Intermediaries are required to seek voting instructions from non-registered Shareholders in advance of Shareholder meetings. Every Intermediary has its own mailing procedures and provides its own return voting instructions, which should be carefully followed by non-registered Shareholders to ensure that their Shares are voted at the Meeting. Often, the form of proxy supplied to a non-registered Shareholder by its Intermediary is identical to the form of proxy provided by the Company to the Intermediaries. However, its purpose is limited to instructing the Intermediary on how to vote on behalf of the non-registered Shareholder. The majority of Intermediaries now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions on how to vote from clients to Broadridge. Broadridge typically mails a voting information form (“VIF”) to the non-registered Shareholders and asks the non-registered Shareholders to return the VIF to Broadridge. Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of Shares to be represented at the Meeting. A non-registered Shareholder receiving a VIF from Broadridge cannot use that VIF to vote Shares directly at the Meeting. The VIF must be returned to Broadridge or the Intermediary well in advance of the Meeting to have the Shares voted.
If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of an Intermediary, you may generally change your vote by (1) submitting new voting instructions to your Intermediary or (2) if you have obtained a “legal proxy” from the organization that holds your shares giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the Meeting and voting in person. However, please consult your broker or other Intermediary for any specific rules it may have regarding your ability to change your voting instructions.

Broker Non-Votes
A “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker who holds its customer’s Shares in the name of a brokerage submits proxies for such Shares but indicates that it does not have authority to vote on a particular matter. Generally, this occurs when brokers have not received any voting instructions from their customers. Without specific instructions, Canadian brokers are prohibited from voting their customers’ Shares.
Without specific instructions, US brokers, as the holders of record, are permitted to vote their customers’ Shares on “routine” matters only, but not on other matters. The only proposals that constitute “routine” matters on which U.S. brokers will have discretion to vote are the PKFOD Re-Appointment Proposal and the Share Consolidation Proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Voting Securities and Principal Shareholders
The authorized share capital of the Company includes an unlimited number of Shares, and an unlimited number of Exchangeable Shares. Each Shareholder is entitled to one vote for each Share held by such Shareholder and the Exchangeable Shares are not entitled to vote at the Meeting. As of the Record Date, [      ] Shares were issued and outstanding.
There are no special rights or restrictions attached to the Shares. The Shares rank equally as to all benefits which might accrue to the holders thereof, including the right to receive dividends out of monies of the Company properly applicable to the payment of dividends if and when declared by the Board and to participate ratably in the remaining assets of the Company in any distribution on a dissolution or winding-up. Shareholders do not have cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors.
Any Shareholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date who either attends the Meeting or who has completed and delivered a proxy in the manner specified, subject to the provisions described above, will be entitled to vote or to have such Shareholder’s Shares voted at the Meeting.
Canopy Growth held a special meeting of shareholders on April 12, 2024 at which Shareholders approved a special resolution authorizing an amendment to its articles of incorporation, as amended (the “Amendment Proposal”), in order to: (i) create and authorize the issuance of a new class of non-voting, non-participating exchangeable shares in the capital of Canopy Growth (the “Exchangeable Shares”); and (ii) restate the rights of the Shares to provide for a conversion feature whereby each Share may at any time, at the option of the holder, be converted into one Exchangeable Share. The Exchangeable Shares do not carry voting rights, rights to receive dividends or other rights upon dissolution of Canopy Growth but are convertible into Shares on a one-for-one basis at any time. Any sale of Exchangeable Shares requires the holder thereof to deliver a certification to the Company that such holder reasonably believes that such transfer is occurring in compliance with the Canadian take-over bid requirements as though the Exchangeable Shares were voting securities or equity securities of the Company.
As of the Record Date, to the knowledge of the directors and executive officers of the Company, no person or entity beneficially owns, or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, voting securities of the Company carrying 10% or more of the voting rights attached to the Shares. However, as of the Record Date, Constellation Brands, Inc. (“CBI”) and its affiliates (collectively, the “CBI Group”) collectively hold 26,261,474 Exchangeable Shares, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding Exchangeable Shares and approximately [      ]% of the issued and outstanding Shares on an as-converted basis.
INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSON IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
No person or company who is, or at any time since the beginning of Fiscal 2026 was, a director or executive officer of the Company, and no person who is a proposed management Nominee for election as a director of the Company, or an associate or affiliate of any such director, executive officer or proposed Nominee, has any material interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership or otherwise, in matters to be acted upon at the Meeting other than the Director Election Proposal.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This Proxy Statement makes reference to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measures under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers; however, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to assist readers in evaluating the performance of the Company.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as the reported net loss, adjusted to exclude: income tax recovery (expense); other income (expense), net; loss on equity method investments; share-based compensation expense; depreciation and amortization expense; asset impairment and restructuring costs; expected credit losses on financial assets and related charges; restructuring costs recorded in cost of goods sold; and charges related to the flow-through of inventory step-up on business combinations; and further adjusted to remove acquisition-related costs. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful and useful financial information as this measure demonstrates the operating performance of businesses.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 – DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL
Board of Directors
The Company currently has five directors, and the Board has nominated five nominees (the “Nominees”) to be elected at the Meeting, whose names are set forth below. All of the five Nominees are currently directors of the Company and have been nominated by the Board for re-election as directors at the Meeting. All of the five Nominees have been directors since the dates indicated below and each director elected at the Meeting will hold office until the next annual general meeting of Shareholders or until his or her successor is duly elected or appointed. Information about each nominated director can be found in the “Nominees for Election as Directors at the Meeting” section below.
Canopy Growth is subject to the statutory majority voting requirements under the CBCA (the “CBCA Majority Voting Requirements”), which became effective on August 31, 2022. In accordance with the CBCA Majority Voting Requirements, directors stand for election each year at the annual meeting of Shareholders, and a separate vote of Shareholders is taken with respect to each candidate nominated for director. If there is an uncontested election, each candidate is elected only if the number of votes cast in their favor represents a majority of the votes cast for and against them by the Shareholders who are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting. If an incumbent director is not re-elected in an uncontested election, the director may continue in office until the earlier of (i) the 90th day after the day of the election; and (ii) the day on which their successor is appointed or elected. Majority voting will not apply in the case of a contested election of directors, in which case the directors will be elected by a plurality of votes of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the meeting and voted on the election of directors.
Nominees for Election as Directors at the Meeting
The table below sets forth certain biographical information regarding the Nominees as of the Record Date.

Additional information regarding the skills and expertise of each of the Nominees is included below under the section entitled “Board of Directors, Committees and Governance - Board Skills Matrix.” If a Nominee is listed as “Independent” in the table below, that Nominee meets the requirement to be an “independent director” under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (the “Nasdaq Rules”) and the definition of “independence” under National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees (“NI 52-110”).

exercise prices denominated in U.S. dollars, first issued during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 (the “Default”). Accordingly, the Company should have recorded these instruments as liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets and measured them at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. On May 28, 2026, the Ontario Securities Commission issued a management cease trade order against Luc Mongeau, the Company’s CEO and Thomas Stewart, the Company’s CFO as a result of the Default. The management cease trade order prohibited Mr. Mongeau and Mr. Stewart from trading in the securities of the Company until two full business days following the filing of the 2026 10-K, which restated the Prior Financial Statements. The 2026 10-K was filed before the opening of financial markets on June 15, 2026. Accordingly, the management cease trade order was lifted on June 16, 2026.
Since August 2019, Ms. Yanofsky has served as a member of the board of directors of Reitmans.

C 36 (the “CCAA”). After its initial filing, Reitmans obtained extensions of the Initial Order until May 28, 2021. On May 25, 2021, the Québec Superior Court issued an extension of the stay of proceedings pursuant to the CCAA until September 28, 2021. Reitmans elected to reduce the amount of the interim debtor-in-possession financing entered into in connection with the CCAA proceedings from C$60.0 million to C$30.0 million. On January 4, 2022, Reitmans obtained a sanction order from the Québec Superior Court for the Company’s plan of arrangement under the CCAA (the “Plan of Arrangement”). Under the Plan of Arrangement, Reitmans distributed an aggregate amount of C$95 million (the “Reitmans Settlement Amount”) to its creditors in full and final settlement of all claims affected by the Plan of Arrangement, including an initial payment of up to C$20,000 per claim plus, if applicable, a pro rata distribution of the remaining balance of the Reitmans Settlement Amount.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
BOARD OF DIRECTORS, COMMITTEES AND GOVERNANCE
Overview
The Board and management of the Company recognize the importance of corporate governance for the effective management of the Company and the protection of its stakeholders, particularly our Shareholders.
National Policy 58-201 – Corporate Governance Guidelines establishes corporate governance guidelines that apply to all public companies. National Instrument 58-101 – Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices mandates disclosure of corporate governance practices, which disclosure is set out below, in accordance with Form 58-101F1 – Corporate Governance Disclosure. The Company is also required to comply with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) and the applicable rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to SOX, as well as the Nasdaq Rules and the rules of the TSX.
Maintaining a high standard of corporate governance is a priority for the Board and the Company’s management as both believe that effective corporate governance will help create and maintain Shareholder value in the long term. A description of the Company’s corporate governance practices is set out below.
Board of Directors
The Board is responsible for the stewardship of the Company, supervising the management of our business and our affairs and acting in the best interests of the Company and Shareholders. The Board has adopted a written “Corporate Governance Guidelines,” pursuant to which the Board assumes responsibility for the stewardship of the Company. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement and are also available on the Company’s website at www.canopygrowth.com/investors/governance/committees-charters/.
The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines state that the primary responsibilities of directors are to exercise their business judgment in good faith and to act in what they reasonably believe is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. Directors are required to fulfill their responsibilities consistent with their fiduciary duties to Shareholders, in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations and subject to the provisions of the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended, and its bylaws. In forming his or her judgment, each director is entitled to rely in good faith on the accuracy of the records of the Company and the information, opinions, reports or statement presented by the Company’s officers, employees, Board committees, outside advisors and auditors. In discharging their obligations, directors are entitled to rely on the honesty and integrity of the Company’s senior executives and its outside advisors and auditors.
The independent judgment of the Board in carrying out its responsibilities is the responsibility of all directors. The Board facilitates independent supervision of management through meetings of the Board and through frequent informal discussions among independent members of the Board and management. In addition, the Board has free access to the Company’s external auditors, external legal counsel and to the Company’s officers.
Meetings
During Fiscal 2026, the Board met 16 times, the Audit Committee met four times and the CGCN Committee met five times. The Board and committees held a combination of in-person and video conference meetings. The individual attendance summary for each of the directors who served as a director during Fiscal 2026 is set forth above.
Board Member Attendance at Board Meetings and Annual Shareholder Meetings
The Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines state that all directors are expected to make reasonable best efforts to attend all meetings of the Board, all meetings of the committees of which they are members and the annual meeting of Shareholders, and to maintain a satisfactory Board and committee meeting attendance record of no less than 75% in the aggregate, subject to recusal by the Board or relevant committee. During Fiscal 2026, (i) the current directors attended, in aggregate, over 96% of the total number of Board meetings, over 93% of CGCN Committee meetings, and over 91% of Audit Committee meetings
22

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
held and on which he or she served during his or her period of service and (ii) each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (a) the total number of meetings of the Board held during the period for which the director had served as a director on the Board and (b) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which the director served during the periods that the director served on such committees. The Company generally encourages, but does not require, directors to attend the Company’s annual meetings of Shareholders. Directors are encouraged to attend Board meetings and meetings of committees of which they are members in person but may also attend such meetings by telephone or video conference. All directors were present at the Company’s 2025 annual general and special meeting of Shareholders, which was held via live audio webcast held on September 26, 2025, adjourned to, and reconvened on October 10, 2025 (the “2025 Annual General Meeting”).
Familial Relationships
There are no family relationships among any directors and executive officers.
Director Independence
The Board is currently comprised of five directors: Luc Mongeau, Theresa Yanofsky, Shan Atkins, David Lazzarato (Chair) and Joseph Bayern. Please see the biographies of individual directors under “Proposal No. 1 – Director Election Proposal – Nominees for Election as Directors at the Meeting”. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, a majority of the directors of the Company meet the independence requirements for a director in accordance with Section 1.4 of NI 52-110 and the definition of “independent director” under applicable Nasdaq Rules. The Board has determined that four out of the five Nominees (or 80% of the Nominees), namely Mr. Lazzarato, Ms. Atkins, Mr. Bayern and Ms. Yanofsky, have no relationship which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, and each is an “independent director” under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Rules and meet the definition of “independence” under NI 52-110. Mr. Mongeau is not considered independent because of his role as the CEO of the Company.
During Fiscal 2026, following the conclusion of formal business of each quarterly Board meeting, the non-independent director was asked to leave the meeting, and the independent directors held an “in camera” meeting to facilitate open and candid discussion. In addition, any item which could involve a potential conflict of interest among one or more directors is voted on by those directors that are not related to the conflict in question. It is anticipated that “in camera” meetings of the independent directors will continue to be held in this manner during the current fiscal year.
Board Leadership Structure and Qualifications
Pursuant to the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board must be composed of a majority of “independent directors”, including the Chair of the Board. The Company defines an “independent director” in accordance with the standards and requirements promulgated by all applicable regulatory bodies exercising control over the Company, including Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Rules. Where it is not appropriate for the Chair of the Board to be independent, an independent director will be appointed to act as lead director (the “Lead Director”). The Lead Director carries out the primary responsibilities that would otherwise be the responsibility of the independent Chair of the Board. At this time, the Board believes that requiring that there be a Lead Director in the event the Chair of the Board is not an independent director is appropriate to provide the most effective leadership structure for Canopy Growth in the rapidly-evolving and highly-regulated cannabis industry.
Currently, Luc Mongeau serves as our CEO and David Lazzarato serves as Chair of our Board. Mr. Lazzarato is an independent director and therefore we currently do not have a Lead Director.
The Chair of the Board will preside over all meetings of the directors, be responsible for the agenda at all meetings of the Board and will preside over meetings of Shareholders. The Chair will convey recommendations of the independent directors to the Board and will be the liaison between the Board and the management of the Company. The Chair will preview information sent to the Board as necessary and approve meeting schedules to assure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The key responsibilities of the Chair of the Board include, among other things:

providing leadership to the Board with respect to its functions as described in the Corporate Governance Guidelines and as otherwise may be appropriate;

ensuring Canopy Growth’s policies and practices related to corporate governance and Board operations are properly reflected in internal and external communications;

ensuring that appropriate procedures are in place for the effective operation of the Board;

Oversight of Risk Management
The Board oversees the management of risks inherent in the operation of our business, with a focus on the most significant risks that we face. The Board performs this role primarily through its Audit Committee and CGCN Committee. Each Board committee addresses the risks specific to the function of that committee. For example, the Board committees address the following risks:

The Audit Committee performs the Board’s oversight responsibilities as they relate to our accounting policies, internal controls, and financial reporting practices, and is responsible for, among other things, overseeing the process by which the Company assesses and manages risks, and identifying risks inherent in the Company’s business including cybersecurity risks.

In connection with its corporate compensation responsibilities, the CGCN Committee reviews all compensation policies and practices for all employees to determine whether such policies and practices create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

In connection with its corporate governance responsibilities, the CGCN Committee is to discuss with management and evaluate management’s efforts to ensure that the Company’s management is taking into account risks that may affect the Company in the areas of human capital management, and the need to update disclosure controls and procedures to address evolving disclosure requirements on environmental, social and governance matters.

Committee Chairs
The Board has developed written charters with respect to each of the Audit Committee and the CGCN Committee, which includes a description of the primary responsibilities of the Chairs of such committees.
The primary responsibilities of the Chair of the Audit Committee and CGCN Committee include, among other things: chairing and setting the agenda for the meetings of the applicable committee, providing leadership to the applicable committee and acting as liaison and maintaining communication with the Chair of the Board and the Board to optimize and co-ordinate input from directors, and to optimize the effectiveness of the applicable committee. The Corporate Governance Guidelines and the committee charters set out in writing the responsibilities of the Board and the committees, respectively.
Committees of Our Board of Directors
The standing committees of the Board consist of the Audit Committee and the CGCN Committee. The responsibilities of these committees are described below. In addition, the Board may establish other committees from time to time to assist the Board in connection with specific matters. The Board oversees the operations of the committees, the appointment of their respective members, their compensation and their conduct. The Board has no intention at this time to establish other standing committees. The following table summarizes the current membership of the Board and each of its committees:

The Audit Committee and the CGCN Committee have adopted detailed charters outlining their responsibilities. Copies of these charters are available on the Company’s website at www.canopygrowth.com/investors/governance/committees-charters/.
Audit Committee
General. The Board has a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with the Nasdaq Rules. The Audit Committee is currently comprised of three directors: M. Shan Atkins (Chair), David Lazzarato and Theresa Yanofsky, all of whom are considered to be “independent” within the meaning of such term under applicable Nasdaq Rules relating to audit committees and Section 1.4

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
of NI 52-110. The members of the Audit Committee are appointed by the Board, and each member of the Audit Committee serves at the pleasure of the Board until the member resigns, is removed or ceases to be a member of the Board.
The Board has determined that M. Shan Atkins, the Chair of the Audit Committee, qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” for purposes of the SEC’s rules and meets the requirements for independence of audit committee members under the Nasdaq Rules. The SEC has indicated that the designation of Ms. Atkins as an audit committee financial expert does not make her an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liabilities on her that are greater than those imposed on other members of the Audit Committee and the Board who do not carry this designation or affect the duties, obligations or liabilities of any other member of the Audit Committee or the Board.
Purpose. The Audit Committee’s primary purpose is to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities for the financial reporting process, the system of internal control over financial reporting and accounting compliance, the audit process of the financial statements and processes for identifying, evaluating and monitoring the management of the Company’s principal risks impacting financial reporting. The Audit Committee also assists the Board with the oversight of financial strategies and the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s overall risk management program including cybersecurity. The Audit Committee Chair also meets regularly with management and with the Company’s internal auditors, including its CFO, and its external auditors, PKFOD. The Audit Committee Charter (the “Audit Committee Charter”) sets forth, among other things, the role and responsibilities of the Audit Committee’s chair.
Responsibilities. Pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee is directly responsible for, among other things: (1) assisting the Board with the oversight of the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements, (2) the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditors, including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditors regarding financial reporting and (3) establishment and maintenance of processes to assure compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements and the Company Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.
The Audit Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website at www.canopygrowth.com/investors/governance/committees-charters/.
CGCN Committee
General. The CGCN Committee is currently comprised of three directors of the Company: Theresa Yanofsky (Chair), Joseph Bayern, and David Lazzarato, all of whom are considered to be an “independent director” under applicable Nasdaq Rules relating to compensation committees and nominating committees and meet the definition of “independence” under NI 52-110.
Purpose. The CGCN Committee’s purpose is to provide leadership in shaping the corporate governance policies and practices of the Company, put forward nominations for the appointment of directors by the Board, discharge the responsibilities of the Board relating to compensation of the Company’s directors and executive officers as determined by the Board, assist the Board in establishing appropriate incentive compensation and equity-based plans and to administer such plans, oversee the annual process of evaluation of the performance of management; and to assist the Board in its oversight of CGCN Committee’s human resource strategies.
Responsibilities – Compensation and Corporate Governance Matters. The CGCN Committee’s primary responsibilities are, among other things, to assist the Board in discharging its responsibilities relating to: (1) setting the Company’s compensation program, (2) administering and monitoring the incentive and equity-based compensation plans including awards under the Company’s Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”), and (3) preparing the compensation committee report, in the annual report and proxy statement under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

senior officers of the Company, and handling such other matters that are specifically delegated to the committee by the Board from time to time.
Pursuant to the charter of the CGCN Committee (the “CGCN Committee Charter”), the CGCN Committee shall, among other things:

annually, review and approve or recommend that the Board approve corporate goals and objectives relevant to CEO compensation, evaluate the CEO’s performance in light of those corporate goals and objectives, and approve or recommend that the Board approve the CEO’s compensation level based on this evaluation;

annually review and, as appropriate, approve or recommend that the Board approve each element of compensation including salaries, bonuses, benefits, and perquisites, and including with respect to any equity-based plans, for the CEO and other named executive officers (“NEOs”) identified below under the headings “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and Executive Compensation”; and

annually review, and as appropriate, approve or recommend the results of the most recent shareholder advisory vote on the compensation of NEOs (a “Say on Pay Vote”) when considering executive compensation policies and decisions, the frequency with which the Company will conduct Say on Pay Votes, the inclusion of proposals regarding the Say on Pay Vote and the frequency of the Say on Pay Vote in any Company filing with the SEC in accordance with applicable law and regulation.
The CGCN Committee Charter does not provide for delegation of these duties.
Pursuant to the CGCN Committee Charter, the CGCN Committee has the authority to retain, at Canopy Growth’s expense, a compensation consultant only after taking into consideration the independence factors set out in Rule 5605(d)(3)(D) of the Nasdaq Rules (the “Compensation Committee Advisor Independence Factors”), to the extent applicable. For Fiscal 2026, after considering the Compensation Committee Advisor Independence Factors, the CGCN Committee continued to directly retain Mercer (Canada) Limited (“Mercer”) as its compensation consultant.
For additional information with respect to the role of Mercer in the determination of executive compensation, please see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” including the information under the subsection entitled “Annual Oversight of Compensation.”
Responsibilities – Board Nominations. The CGCN Committee is responsible for, among other things: identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board, and to select, or recommend that the Board select, the director nominees for the next annual meeting of Shareholders. In carrying out the foregoing duties, the CGCN Committee consistently seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience, diversity and capability on the Board. While the CGCN Committee has not established specific minimum qualifications for director candidates, it considers all pertinent factors that it deems appropriate. As set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, among the qualifications considered in the selection of director candidates, the CGCN Committee will look at the following attributes and criteria of candidates: experience, skills, expertise, diversity, personal and professional integrity, character, business judgment, time availability in light of other commitments, dedication and conflicts of interest. In evaluating and identifying candidates, the CGCN Committee has the authority to retain and terminate any third-party search firm that is used to identify director candidates and has the authority to approve the fees and retention terms of any search firm.
The CGCN Committee will also consider director nominations identified by Shareholders. Nominations by Shareholders must be provided in a timely manner and must include sufficient biographical information so that the CGCN Committee can appropriately assess the proposed nominee’s background and qualifications. For a Shareholder to have his or her candidate considered by the CGCN Committee for inclusion as a director nominee at the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of Shareholders, Shareholder submissions of candidates for nomination to the Board must be submitted in writing to the Corporate Secretary of the Company at Canopy Growth Corporation, 1 Hershey Drive, Smiths Falls, Ontario, K7A 0A8.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
The following persons served as members of the CGCN Committee during Fiscal 2026: Theresa Yanofsky, Willy Kruh (ceased being a director in September 2025), David Lazzarato and Joseph Bayern. No person who served as a member of the CGCN Committee during Fiscal 2026 served as an officer or employee of the Company prior to or during such person’s tenure on the CGCN Committee, and no such person had any relationships with the Company of the type that is required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. During Fiscal 2026, none of our executive officers served as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) of another entity.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Over the course of Fiscal 2026, the Company has continued its journey towards creating greater equity in its workplace. We have undertaken the below noted steps to help us achieve our diversity, equity and inclusion (“DEI”) vision to: 1) develop a workforce of talent that reflects the communities and consumers we serve, and 2) create an inclusive environment where individuals feel welcomed, respected and valued based on their unique identities and perspectives.
To achieve these goals, we believe in investing in resources and integrating DEI strategies into our business efforts and priorities versus treating them solely as a standalone objective. As part of our initiatives, we have developed a multi-year strategy focused on the following three areas: 1) systems and accountability; 2) creating a culture of inclusion; and 3) increased education and awareness. As part of this work, several of our key activities are highlighted below:

Maintained a U.S. company-wide holiday in recognition of both Martin Luther King Day and Juneteenth.

Advanced a recognition day calendar for historically excluded groups with dates including, among others, Lunar New Year, Juneteenth, World Mental Health Day, Diwali, the Indigenous People’s Day, and National Day of Truth and Reconciliation.

Trained all Human Resource team members on how to manage bias in hiring.

Increased diversity in our job candidate pipeline by partnering with job boards and with external recruiting firms.

Integrated tools to mitigate bias into year-end review, our talent review processes and our annual merit program.
We actively seek opportunities to enhance our DEI strategy through a variety of initiatives. We are investing time, resources and leadership engagement to achieve our desired results and achieve meaningful progress.
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Company has five directors, two of whom are women, representing 40% of Board membership. None of the current directors are from any of the other “designated groups” ​(as defined in the Employment Equity Act (Ontario)), namely members of visible minorities, Indigenous peoples and persons with disabilities. Our CEO is part of the LGBTQ+ community. As of March 31, 2026, one of the Company’s named executive officers, as such term is defined by the SEC and Canadian National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations, is a woman, and a visible minority.

The Company has a strict no retaliation policy for anyone who reports a violation in good faith, regardless of the accuracy of such a report. Furthermore, any allegation of reprisal is fully investigated by the Company.
The Board has also adopted a Whistleblower Protection Policy which establishes procedures for: (i) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Company regarding accounting, auditing and other financial matters (collectively, “Accounting Irregularities”), any illegal acts or violations of the Code or any other policy of the Company, or applicable laws and regulations (collectively, “Wrongdoings”); and (ii) the submission by employees, officers and directors of the Company, on a confidential and anonymous basis, of concerns regarding any Accounting Irregularities and Wrongdoings.
The Board has also adopted a Disclosure Policy to ensure, among other things: (i) that the Company complies with timely disclosure obligations under securities laws and the regulations of the stock exchanges on which the Company’s securities are listed; (ii) that the Company prevents material misrepresentations made to the public; (iii) that the Company prevents the selective disclosure of “material information” ​(as defined in the Disclosure Policy); (iv) that prompt corrected disclosure is made by the Company, if material information is undisclosed or if material misrepresentations are known to have been made publicly; and (v) that all communications to the public are informative, timely, factual, balanced, accurate and broadly disseminated.
The Board has also adopted an Insider Trading Policy as discussed under the heading “– Anti-Hedging & Insider Trading Policy” below.
The Board has also continued to maintain and has updated existing policies after completing a thorough review of its corporate governance practices, including adopting an advance notice by-law (as described below) and updating the Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy to clarify the definitions and refine the language regarding gifts, entertainment, hospitality and charitable contributions.
On May 26, 2026, the Board approved By-Law No. 2 Advance Notice By-Law, as described below under the heading, “Proposal No. 4 – Advance Notice By-Law Proposal.”
Exercise of Independent Judgment – Conflicts of Interest
The Company is governed by the provisions of the CBCA, pursuant to which a director or officer of the Company must disclose to the Company in writing or by requesting that it be entered in the minutes of meetings of the Board, the nature and extent of any interest that he or she has in a material contract or material transaction, whether made or proposed, with the Company, if the director or officer: (a) is a party to the contract or transaction; (b) is a director or an officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of a party to the contract or transaction; or (c) has a material interest in a party to the contract or transaction. Except as otherwise permitted by the CBCA, an interested director cannot vote on any resolution to approve such contract or transaction.

the Audit Committee and the CGCN Committee. Annually, the CGCN Committee makes recommendations to the Board regarding the process to be followed and the issues to be explored.
The Board addresses items raised both through the assessment process and through informal feedback as warranted. In Fiscal 2026, the Board has continued to expand its exposure to members of management, further enhanced its focus on key topics of strategic concern to the Company, and continued to develop its knowledge of the Company’s business functions through various presentations and discussions from internal business groups. The Board conducted a formal assessment of its own effectiveness and that of its committees during Fiscal 2026 which was completed on March 31, 2026. The Board concluded that committee and Board meetings are efficient and effective. The Chair of the CGCN Committee reviewed and completed the Board self-evaluations with the Chair of the Board during Fiscal 2026.
Orientation and Continuing Education
The CGCN Committee ensures that newly elected directors and committee members receive effective and comprehensive orientation, and that all directors are provided continuing education opportunities, both to maintain and enhance their skills and abilities as directors and, as applicable, committee members, and to ensure their knowledge and understanding of the Company’s business remains current.
Through its onboarding program, new directors are given the opportunity to meet with members of management to review the budget, forecast and strategic plan for the Company, as well as key corporate projects. When circumstances permit, a new director shall participate in a site tour of the Company’s operating facilities and of the retail stores carrying our products and receive an overview of the past year of activities, the competitive landscape and insight into distribution channels.
In order to ensure that directors are knowledgeable in subjects related to the discharge of their duties as well as cannabis industry trends, the Company has addressed continuing education in its Corporate Governance Guidelines, which provide, among other things, that each director is expected to be involved in continuing director education on an ongoing basis to enable him or her to better perform his or her duties and to recognize and deal appropriately with issues that arise in connection therewith. The Board has adopted a Continuing Education Policy, which provides that the CGCN Committee will present the directors, from time to time throughout each fiscal year, with a variety of continuing education opportunities. The CGCN Committee may also invite external legal counsel and other external advisors of the Company to present at Board meetings on topics and trends facing companies in the cannabis industry. In addition, directors have access to the Company’s in-house and external legal counsel in the event of any questions or matters relating to their corporate and director responsibilities and to keep themselves current with changes in legislation. In Fiscal 2026, the Board was offered four education sessions, one of which was presented by external advisors and three of which were presented by various Company business units. These included sessions on key considerations and risks in respect of mergers and acquisitions, updates on the U.S. cannabis regulatory roadmap and rescheduling, and competitive landscape and legislative changes of the international cannabis landscape, as well as an in-depth review of the innovation pipeline for the Canadian adult-use market. Sessions were held in-person and virtually and were attended by all members of the Board.
These continuing education opportunities are in addition to any presentations by management or other Company employees on the Company’s ongoing operations either at Board meetings or organized separately.
The Board’s Continuing Education Policy is administered by the CGCN Committee and reviewed on an annual basis and revised as necessary.

Director Term Limits
The Board has not adopted director term limits, other than pursuant to the Director Retirement Age Policy, as further described below, or formal mechanisms of Board renewal as it believes that the imposition of such limitations on a Board implicitly discounts the value of experience and continuity amongst the Board members and runs the risk of excluding experienced and potentially valuable Board members as a result of an arbitrary determination. Instead, the CGCN Committee reviews the Board’s composition on a regular basis and has established criteria for its directors based upon the Company’s current and projected needs in accordance with an identified skills matrix. In order to ensure that the interests of directors are fully aligned with those of the Company, directors shall be required to retire from the Board at the age of 75 in accordance with the Company’s Mandatory Director Retirement Age Policy. One year prior to a given director attaining the age of 75, the CGCN Committee will begin the process of identifying a suitable replacement for the retiring director. In exceptional circumstances, the CGCN Committee may recommend to the Board to exempt a director from the application of the Mandatory Director Retirement Age Policy.
Anti-Hedging & Insider Trading Policy
Pursuant to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, the executive officers and directors are not permitted to enter into any transaction that has the direct or indirect effect of offsetting the economic value (hedging) of any interest in any security of the Company. This includes the purchase of financial instruments such as variable prepaid forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in the market value of securities. To the Company’s knowledge, no executive officer or director of the Company has entered into any such transaction or purchased such a financial instrument.
31

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The Board has also adopted an Insider Trading Policy to ensure, among other things: (i) that persons to whom the policy applies understand their obligations to preserve the confidentiality of undisclosed “Material Information” ​(as defined in the Insider Trading Policy); (ii) strict compliance by all insiders with all requirements relating to the reporting of insider trading and with respect to trading when in possession of undisclosed “Material Information”; (iii) that individuals subject to scheduled and unscheduled blackout periods adhere to the restrictions on trading as set out in the policy and (iv) preclearance request procedures for Reporting Insiders (as defined in the Insider Trading Policy) and post trading reporting procedures for Reporting Insiders required to file reports under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company seeks to discourage its employees from frequent buying and selling of securities for the purpose of realizing short-term profits and to acquire securities as long-term investments only. For greater detail, please refer to the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, which can be found at https://www.canopygrowth.com/investors/governance/articles-bylaws-policies/.
Succession Plan
In accordance with the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Company has adopted a succession plan in order to lessen disruption and provide direction in the event of an extended absence or departure of the CEO or another member of executive management. By outlining the strategic direction of the Company, integrating strategies and embedding accountability, the succession plan is designed to ensure a smooth transition across the Company. The succession plan includes specific strategies for addressing either a short-term, long-term, or permanent absence of the CEO or other member of the executive management team. It is the responsibility of the CGCN Committee, in consultation with the executive management team to suggest further mechanisms to minimize the impact of an unforeseen absence or vacancy in key roles and to ultimately make a recommendation to the Board to fill the vacancy. Pursuant to the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the CGCN Committee is required to annually review and report to the Board on succession planning, which must include emergency CEO succession, CEO succession in the ordinary course and succession for other members of the senior management team.
Share Ownership Guidelines
For the purpose of strengthening the alignment of the interests of the Company’s executive officers and non-employee directors with those of the other Shareholders, the Company approved written Share Ownership Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) and reviews the Guidelines annually. In accordance with the Guidelines, executive officers as well as certain other members of senior management are expected to hold share interests valued at the multiples of annual base salary by the end of an initial five-year accumulation period, beginning on the later of (i) the date of approval of the Guidelines; or (ii) the date on which the Guidelines become applicable to a given director or officer following their appointment to such position, and to maintain such an ownership level thereafter. The following details of the Guidelines are applicable to the following officer positions held as of March 31, 2026:
Title
Guidelines
Chief Executive Officer five times base salary
Chief Financial Officer three times base salary
Chief Business Development & Corporate
Affairs Officer
three times base salary
Directors are expected to hold share interests valued at two-and-a-half times their annual cash board retainer by the end of an initial five-year accumulation period and to maintain such an ownership level thereafter. For purposes of the Guidelines, share interests include, among other things, Shares, restricted stock and RSUs.
In instances where an officer or director has not achieved the Share ownership level established by the Guidelines within the initial five-year accumulation period, the CGCN Committee will review the matter with such officer or director to determine an appropriate remedy in light of the principles of these Guidelines. The CGCN Committee will annually review and assess the adequacy of the Guidelines and adopt any changes it deems necessary.

Fiscal 2026 Performance Highlights
Fiscal 2026 represented a pivotal year for Canopy Growth, marked by a reset of the Company’s cost base and structure, the strengthening of its balance sheet, and an acquisition which is expected to expand the Company’s market presence and address the demand for additional high quality flower.
Highlights for Fiscal 2026 include:
Strategic Recapitalization and Strengthened Financial Performance

The Company recapitalized its balance sheet with a new US$150 million term loan and extended the maturity dates of all outstanding indebtedness to January 2031 at the earliest. The Company raised $374 million of equity in Fiscal 2026 and ended the year with net cash of $131 million, compared to net debt of $173 million at the end of Fiscal 2025. The strengthened financial position increases strategic flexibility while reducing risk and uncertainty.

The Company returned to growth in Fiscal 2026, reporting a net revenue increase of 6% for the year led by strong performance in the Canadian medical and adult-use businesses.

Cost reduction efforts enabled the Company to capture over $29 million in annualized savings since March 1, 2025, exceeding its original $20 million target announced in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2025.
Acquisition of MTL Established Canopy Growth as Canada’s Leading Medical Cannabis Business

The Company completed the acquisition of MTL Cannabis Corp. (“MTL”), in March 2026 in a transaction valued at approximately $125 million on a fully-diluted equity basis and approximately $179 million on an enterprise value basis.

The acquisition established the combined company as the leading medical cannabis provider in Canada by revenue, combining MTL’s patient network, Canada House clinics, and Abba Medix online medical channel with the Company’s existing Spectrum Therapeutics platform.

The transaction added two Québec cultivation facilities to the Company’s footprint, expanding its operational, brand, and product presence in Québec, Canada’s second-largest cannabis market.
36

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
MTL is known for its cultivation expertise and high quality flower, and the additional production capacity is expected to support the Company’s growth strategy both in Canada and internationally.

The Company expects the transaction to realize approximately $10 million in annualized run-rate cost synergies within 18 months, driven primarily by anticipated operating efficiencies and corporate integration.
Growth in Global Medical Cannabis

Canada medical cannabis net revenue increased 16% in Fiscal 2026, driven by the addition of new patients.

The Company launched Spectrum Reserve, a new premium medical cannabis brand featuring flower selected for size, potency, and terpene levels through rigorous in-house standards during cultivation and post-harvest processing.

In Australia, the Company introduced its Canadian-grown 7ACRES brand, expanding its medical cannabis offering with two high-THC sativa strains, Ultra Jack and Jack Frost. The Company further expanded its Spectrum Therapeutics portfolio in Australia with new softgel capsules in CBD, THC, and balanced formats.

During Fiscal 2026, the Company took action to strengthen supply chain execution in its European medical cannabis business in response to supply constraints that affected international markets cannabis revenue. The acquisition of MTL is expected to further bolster high-quality flower supply to support continued growth in the European medical cannabis market.
Canadian Adult-Use Growth

Canadian adult-use cannabis net revenue increased 21% in Fiscal 2026, successfully returning to growth after a decline in the previous year.

Growth was driven by a series of product innovations targeting Canada’s fastest-growing adult-use categories, including vapes, high-THC flower, pre-rolls, and edibles, anchored by the Company’s flagship Tweed and 7ACRES brands and supplemented by Claybourne and the re-entry of Deep Space into the edibles category. In March 2026, the Company introduced DeeLish, a new cannabis brand featuring 27% – 33% THC flower and 26% – 32% THC pre-rolls across rotating genetics.
Continued Leadership in Vaporization via Storz & Bickel

Storz & Bickel launched the new VEAZY™ vaporizer, expanding the brand’s portable vaporizer portfolio while reinforcing its strategy around affordability and portability.

Storz & Bickel announced an executive transition in March 2026, with David Männer appointed Managing Director, succeeding co-founder Jürgen Bickel following 25 years of leadership. The leadership team began implementing a new strategy designed to accelerate product development and strengthen sales and market execution while maintaining cost discipline.
Objectives and General Principles of the Compensation Program
The Company’s compensation philosophy is based on attracting, retaining and motivating employees with incentives aligned with corporate strategic objectives and the interests of Shareholders, while effectively managing risk and broader stakeholder considerations. The Company believes that an effective compensation program, founded on the following principles, is key to building long-term shareholder value:
37

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
[MISSING IMAGE: tb_objectives-pn.jpg]
Target Pay Positioning
For NEOs, total target direct compensation is set by reference to the 50th percentile of relevant publicly-traded peers, weighted more heavily towards long-term equity-based compensation. Positioning will depend upon the role, responsibilities, experience, and contributions of each NEO, as well as the comparability to the peer incumbents, which may deviate slightly from the 50th percentile based on informed judgment. Recognizing that the Company is a North American organization with senior executives located in both Canada and the United States, the dual peer group approach (the Canadian Consumer-Focused Group and the U.S. CPG and Pharmaceutical Group) is used for benchmarking and target setting purposes to reflect competitive pay levels in both jurisdictions, as appropriate.
Annual Oversight of Compensation
Role of the CGCN Committee
The CGCN Committee is responsible for overseeing executive compensation, including the annual review and approval of NEO compensation. For CEO compensation, the CGCN Committee works with its independent compensation advisor, Mercer, and is supported by the Company’s Senior Vice President of Human Resources (the “SVP HR”), to develop and approve compensation decisions. For all other NEOs and senior officers, the CGCN Committee reviews and approves recommendations provided by the CEO and SVP HR. The CGCN Committee also reviews various aspects of the Company’s compensation programs and makes determinations on changes to incentive plan design, as appropriate. The process and timeline of the CGCN Committee’s annual activities are noted below.
Fiscal 2026 Policies & Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards
At its regularly scheduled annual meeting, the CGCN Committee approved equity awards for each individual executive officer, in alignment with their respective employment agreements. In accordance with
38

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
our Omnibus Incentive Plan, these annual equity awards are issued upon the exit of our fourth quarter financial blackout period, which occurs two trading days after the annual earnings call. The valuations of these awards are calculated based upon the fair market value definition as prescribed in our Omnibus Incentive Plan. The CGCN Committee does not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information (“MNPI”), and the Company does not time the release of MNPI based upon grant dates of equity. In the event MNPI becomes known to the CGCN Committee before granting an equity award, the CGCN Committee will consider such information and use its business judgment to determine whether to delay the grant of equity to avoid any appearance of impropriety.
Role of the Compensation Consultant
The CGCN Committee continued their engagement of Mercer, to provide independent advice on executive compensation, including the alignment of Canopy Growth’s compensation policies and practices with its executive compensation philosophy and related governance matters. The nature and scope of services provided by Mercer to the CGCN Committee during Fiscal 2026 included the review, support, and advice on:

The Company’s compensation philosophy

The review of Canopy Growth’s peer group

Compensation levels for Canopy Growth’s NEOs and other executive roles and the Board

Short-Term Incentive Plan metrics, weightings, and target setting

Long-Term Incentive Plan mix of vehicles and related performance metrics

Compensation disclosure and other governance matters

Management-prepared materials and recommendations in advance of CGCN Committee meetings

Attendance at CGCN Committee meetings as requested
The CGCN Committee considers, among other information, the advice provided by Mercer in making its executive compensation decisions; however, it may or may not follow Mercer’s advice in making such decisions.
Any other services, not related to executive or director compensation, and recommendations provided by Mercer or its affiliates to the Company require approval from the Chair of the CGCN Committee. The CGCN Committee has considered the independence of Mercer and has not identified any conflicts of interest regarding their services or employees.
Role of CEO and SVP HR

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
A significant portion of our NEOs’ compensation is variable and directly linked to Company performance. Short-term incentives are tied to the achievement of annual financial and corporate objectives, while long-term incentives are aligned with shareholder value creation and retention through equity-based compensation. This structure reinforces our pay-for-performance philosophy and aligns executive compensation with both short-term results and long-term value creation.
The following chart illustrates our CEO’s Fiscal 2026 target total direct compensation (“TDC”) mix.

Base Salary
Base salary forms the foundation for attracting and retaining top talent while ensuring competitiveness with the market. Base salaries are determined based on market rates for similar positions and each executive’s expected contribution and past performance.
For all NEOs other than the CEO, the CEO and the SVP HR develop salary recommendations based on: (i) approved benchmarking provided by the Company’s independent compensation consultant (Mercer) and (ii) market survey data. CEO base salary decisions are developed by the CGCN Committee with input from Mercer and the SVP HR, and are informed by the approved benchmarking data. All senior executive base salaries, including the salary of the CEO, are reviewed and approved by the CGCN Committee.
Mr. Stewart’s base salary increased during Fiscal 2026 in connection with his appointment as Chief Financial Officer, reflecting the expanded scope and responsibilities of the role and aligning his compensation with the Company’s executive compensation framework.
For Fiscal 2026, the CGCN Committee approved a 2.5% base salary increase for Dr. Gedeon in connection with the Company’s annual merit cycle. The CGCN Committee did not approve base salary increases for the remaining NEOs, other than Mr. Stewart’s increase in connection with his appointment as CFO, reflecting the Company’s continued focus on cost discipline and alignment with financial performance.

Short-Term Incentives
All NEOs who were employed by the Company at the end of Fiscal 2026 participated in the Company’s short-term incentive plan (the “STIP”), which provides an annual cash incentive based on performance relative to pre-established financial and corporate objectives. The STIP is a leveraged bonus design, where executives may earn between 0% and 200% of the target bonus opportunity (“target”), which is defined as a percentage of base salary for each executive.
Plan Design
For our NEOs, the STIP is linked to a combination of corporate and financial objectives and is structured as follows:
[MISSING IMAGE: fc_plandesign-pn.jpg]
Fiscal 2026 Target Award Levels
Under the STIP, and pursuant to their respective employment agreements, each NEO has a target award expressed as a percentage of base salary. Payouts are based on the achievement of overall Company performance relative to pre-established financial and corporate objectives. NEOs may receive no payout for performance at or below threshold level, and a maximum payout of 200% of target for performance at or above maximum objectives.
The threshold, target, and maximum awards for our NEOs are as follows:

Fiscal 2026 STIP Performance Criteria & Results
Per the Company’s STIP, the performance of the Company’s executive leadership team, including the NEOs, was assessed based on predetermined financial and corporate objectives that were established and approved by the CGCN Committee at the beginning of the fiscal year. For Fiscal 2026, all NEOs were evaluated against corporate and financial objectives, which were recommended and approved by the CGCN Committee. These objectives were weighted as outlined in the table below.
For Fiscal 2026, the calculated STIP performance result was 110.4% of target based on achievement against the pre-established financial and corporate objectives approved by the CGCN Committee. The CGCN Committee certified the results and approved STIP payouts based on the formulaic application of the approved plan design. No discretion was exercised to increase or decrease the calculated payout, and the same performance factor applied to all NEOs eligible for a Fiscal 2026 STIP payout.
Financial performance for the year was impacted by continued industry headwinds and market volatility, resulting in performance below target for certain financial metrics. Despite these challenges, the Company delivered strong execution against its corporate objectives.
42

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The corporate objectives, as established and certified by the CGCN Committee, focused on internal cost savings, international growth, and inventory management, and were achieved at a high level. These priorities were designed to support long-term sustainability, strengthen operational performance, and align execution with the Company’s strategic plan.
The CGCN Committee determined that the approved STIP payout appropriately reflects overall Company performance, recognizing both financial outcomes and the successful execution of key corporate priorities, while maintaining alignment with the Company’s pay-for-performance philosophy.

Long-Term Incentives
Summary of Principal Terms of Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) Instruments
The table below summarizes the principal terms of our stock options (“Options”) and RSUs for Fiscal 2026.
43

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
RSUs
Options
Purpose

RSUs represent compensation to incentivize executives to achieve long-term objectives of the Company, to retain executives, as well as to align executives’ interests with those of Shareholders

Options represent compensation that is intended to align executives’ interests with those of Shareholders by providing executives with the opportunity to become Shareholders

These are considered entirely “at risk” because the value of Options rises (and may fall) in conjunction with the market price of Canopy Shares where the change in Canopy Share prices is deemed an indirect measure of overall performance by the Company and the execution on key performance metrics by the Company’s employees and executives
Form of Award

RSUs represent notional shares that track the value of the Canopy Shares as of the vesting date, based on the TSX in prior years and, beginning in Fiscal 2025, based on the Nasdaq

A holder of vested Options may acquire Canopy Shares at the exercise price established on the date of grant, which is equal to the closing price of the Canopy Shares on the applicable stock exchange on which the Canopy Shares traded as of the date of grant

Beginning in Fiscal 2025, newly granted Options are priced and tracked based on the closing price of the Canopy Shares on the Nasdaq
Vesting

Historically, RSUs generally vested on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, with one-third of the granted RSUs vesting on each date

Beginning in Fiscal 2025, the Company transitioned to a standardized vesting approach for annual equity grants, with RSUs vesting in equal one-third installments on June 15th of the first, second, and third year following the grant date

Options vest on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of the grant, with one third of the number of granted Options vesting on each date
44

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
RSUs
Options
Settlement

RSUs will, at the CGCN Committee’s discretion, be settled in Canopy Shares purchased from the open market, or in Canopy Shares issued from treasury

The value of a vested Option is the difference between its exercise price and the closing price of the Canopy Shares on the applicable stock exchange on which the Canopy Shares are traded on the date prior to exercise

Beginning in Fiscal 2025, newly granted Options are priced and tracked based on the value of the Canopy Shares as listed on the NASDAQ. All Options are settled in Canopy Shares issued from treasury
Fiscal 2023 PSU Awards
PSUs were last granted in fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (“Fiscal 2023”) and were subject to multi-year performance conditions. These awards were fully certified by the CGCN Committee based on Fiscal 2025 performance, and the resulting Canopy Shares were released to participants in Fiscal 2026.
Fiscal 2026 | Long-Term Incentive Award Grant Issuance
All NEOs who were employed by the Company at the start of Fiscal 2026 participated in the Company’s long-term incentive program. For Fiscal 2026, the Company’s long-term incentive program consisted exclusively of RSUs and Options. The Company’s LTIP is designed to align executive compensation with long-term shareholder value creation and to support the retention of key talent through equity-based awards.
Annual LTIP awards are typically granted following the end of the Company’s fiscal year, upon the exit of the Company’s financial blackout period.
In connection with his appointment as CFO, Mr. Stewart received an additional equity award outside of the Company’s annual grant cycle. This award was provided to align his compensation with the scope and responsibilities of the CFO role and is consistent with the Company’s approach to executive transitions.
The following table shows the LTIP awards granted to our NEOs for Fiscal 2026:

Mr. Stewart’s awards reflect (i) his participation in the Company’s annual grant cycle while serving as Vice President, Finance, and (ii) an additional grant awarded in connection with his appointment as CFO on September 17, 2025. The additional award was provided to align his compensation with the scope and responsibilities of the CFO role.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Ms. Hong served as CFO for a portion of Fiscal 2026 until her service end date of June 9, 2025. Her LTIP award reflects participation in the Company’s annual grant cycle prior to her departure from the Company. In connection with the termination of her employment during Fiscal 2026, any unvested equity awards held by Ms. Hong were forfeited or cancelled in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreements.
Each of the Options granted has a six-year term, subject to earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain events related to termination of employment, as specified in the form of option agreement pursuant to which the Options were granted (the “Option Grant Agreement”). One-third of the Options become exercisable on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the terms of the Option Grant Agreement. The exercise price of each Option granted on June 3, 2025 was US$1.47 per Share, and the exercise price of the Options granted to Mr. Stewart on September 17, 2025 was US$1.40 per Share.
RSUs granted on June 3, 2025 vest in equal one-third installments on June 15, 2026, 2027 and 2028, subject to continued service. The RSUs granted to Mr. Stewart on September 17, 2025 vest in equal one-third installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to continued service.
Fiscal 2027 | Long-Term Incentive Award Plan Design
For Fiscal 2027, the CCGN Committee approved maintaining the same annual grant percentages for NEOs (salary X accrual percentage).
However, as part of the CFO transition, the LTIP target for the CFO role has been adjusted from 300% to 200% of salary, with an equal split between Stock Options (50%) and RSUs (50%), reflecting a more balanced approach to long-term incentives.

Peer Groups and Compensation Benchmarking
With the engagement of our executive compensation consultant Mercer, the CGCN Committee re-evaluated Canopy Growth’s publicly-traded peer group in Fiscal 2023. We believe this peer group, with the adjustments noted below, reflects the current reality of Canopy Growth and the cannabis industry and the companies we compete with for talent.
In Fiscal 2023, the CGCN Committee approved the use of two distinct groups of publicly-traded peers to inform the setting of target total direct compensation levels for NEOs. The first group includes similarly-sized Canadian consumer-focused industry comparators, including cannabis companies, while the second group includes similarly-sized U.S. CPG and also includes companies in the cannabis industry. These groups include organizations that the Company would potentially compete with for talent. The criteria used to select the peer group are as follows:

Publicly traded company;

Market capitalization between approximately 1/3 and 3 times that of the Company at the time of the review in early Fiscal 2023 (with the Company positioned at or near median); and

Operating within the consumer discretionary, consumer staples or pharmaceuticals industries

In addition to its review of peer group executive compensation data, the CGCN Committee uses executive compensation survey data to supplement its review, and when insufficient peer group data is available for specific executive positions or as another means of performing a market check on executive compensation levels and practices. This information assists the CGCN Committee in making well-informed decisions regarding executive compensation matters.
Executive Compensation Risk Management
The CGCN Committee considers and assesses, as necessary, the implications of risks associated with the Company’s compensation policies and practices and devotes such time and resources as it believes are appropriate given the Company’s current stage of development. The Company’s practice during Fiscal 2026 of compensating its senior executives through a mix of base salary, short-term incentives and long-term incentives, provided under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, is designed to mitigate risk by: (i) ensuring that the Company retains such executives; and (ii) aligning the interests of its executives with the short-term and long-term objectives of the Company and its Shareholders. The CGCN Committee monitors the Company’s compensation practices and policies at least annually and more often as may be required to deal with issues that arise between annual reviews. During Fiscal 2026, the CGCN Committee did not identify any significant risks arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices that the CGCN Committee believed were reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
47

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The table below outlines key elements of the Company’s compensation risk management framework:
Risk Mitigating Compensation Practices

Conduct an annual review of the Company’s compensation practices to ensure that the Company compensates its key employees appropriately to retain executives with critical skills.

Deliver a significant majority of each executive’s compensation through “at-risk” instruments that create a clear link between pay and performance, align executive interests with those of Shareholders and help incentivize executives to drive Shareholder value.

Defer a significant portion of each executive’s compensation through the application of multi-year time vesting conditions on long-term incentive equity awards. Options and RSUs vest over three years.

Cap annual short-term incentive payouts to discourage excessive risk-taking.

Adopt guidelines regarding share ownership for the CEO and other NEOs set at five times annual base salary for the CEO and at three times annual base salary for the rest of the NEOs.

Have trading guidelines that restrict executives and directors from entering into transactions that have the direct or indirect effect of offsetting (hedging) the economic benefits of owning Company securities.

Hold an annual say-on-pay advisory vote which provides Shareholders with a mechanism to share their views on the Company’s executive pay practices.

Receive independent, third-party advice directly from an external compensation consultant.

Maintain a clawback policy, outlined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, whereby the Board may require the reimbursement, reduction or cancellation of an award for (i) failing to comply with any obligation to the Company; (ii) termination for cause; (iii) conduct that causes material financial or reputational harm to the Company or its affiliates; (iv) willful misconduct, gross negligence or fraud; or (v) restatement of its financial statements resulting in negative impacts to the Company’s financial results. In addition, the Board adopted a standalone clawback policy to comply with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and the rules of Nasdaq (as amended, the “Clawback Policy”), which provides for the recoupment of certain executive compensation in the event of an accounting restatement resulting from material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under U.S. federal securities laws. In Fiscal 2025, an updated version of the Clawback Policy was adopted by the Board that included a transition period in the event the Company changes its fiscal year and clarified language regarding the method of recouping incentive-based compensation and other recoupment rights, including providing discretion to the Board on enforcement of the policy.
Recovery Analysis under Clawback Policy
As described in the 2026 10-K, in connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for Fiscal 2026, on May 15, 2026, the Audit Committee was made aware of and, after discussion with senior management of the Company, concluded that the Prior Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon because of non-cash technical errors in the Company’s accounting relating to certain share-settled warrants of the Company with exercise prices denominated in U.S. dollars, first issued during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024. Accordingly, the Prior Financial Statements were restated in the 2026 10-K (the “Restatement”). In accordance with our Clawback Policy, the Board completed an analysis to determine whether, as a result of the Restatement, it had to require prompt repayment or forfeiture of any erroneously awarded Incentive-Based Compensation (as such term is defined in the Clawback Policy) received by any Covered Executive (as such term is defined in the Clawback Policy) during fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 (“Fiscal 2024”), Fiscal 2025 or Fiscal 2026. For each of Fiscal 2024, Fiscal 2025 and Fiscal 2026, the performance measures used to determine Incentive-Based Compensation were Adjusted EBITDA and revenue, neither of which were impacted by the Restatement. Accordingly, the Board determined that no erroneously awarded Incentive-Based Compensation was awarded.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Results of Fiscal 2025 Say-On-Pay Vote
Canopy Growth’s compensation program for its executive management team is designed to drive Shareholder value and to effectively attract and retain talent. Each year, we conduct a Shareholder advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed in our proxy statement for our annual meeting of shareholders (a “say-on-pay” vote). At our 2025 Annual General Meeting, our Shareholders approved our NEO compensation at that time, with approximately 82.1% of the votes cast voting in favor of approval. Given these results, the CGCN Committee has decided to retain our overall approach to executive compensation while continuing to evaluate our practices frequently, including in response to future say-on-pay votes. The CGCN Committee continues to monitor further stakeholder feedback, Company performance, and market developments for potential further improvements to the Company’s compensation structure for executive officers. The Company expects to have its next “say-on-pay” vote at its 2026 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2026 Annual Meeting”).
Performance Graph
The following performance graph illustrates the Company’s cumulative Shareholder return assuming reinvestment of dividends, by comparing a C$100 investment in the Canopy Shares beginning March 31, 2021 to the return on the S&P/TSX Composite Index, which is the headline index for the Canadian equity market, and the Global X Marijuana Life Sciences Index ETF (Ticker: HMMJ).

Since March 31, 2021, the Canopy Share price performance declined because of considerable volatility in the cannabis sector resulting from a multitude of factors, including, among others, (i) underperformance of the Canadian cannabis sector, resulting in significant price compression in the adult-use space, (ii) restructuring of our operations in order to improve long-term performance, (iii) continued capital requirements through the issuance of additional common shares, and (iv) the multiple attempts in the U.S. to reschedule cannabis from a Schedule I substance to a Schedule III substance under the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. § 811). In addition, relative stock underperformance was impacted by strength in the S&P/TSX resulting in higher commodity prices.
49

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
We believe the appropriate benchmark to assess our share price performance is against the Global X Marijuana Life Sciences Index ETF as this ETF contains a basket of our peer competitors. The S&P/TSX Composite Index is a broad-based exchange that contains companies in non-cannabis sectors and as such would have fewer comparative factors to a company in the cannabis industry.
While our Canopy Share price has been volatile due in part to the evolving state of the cannabis industry, our executive compensation remains competitive as we aim to attract and retain an experienced executive team whose compensation is tied to a variety of metrics including long-term profit improvement and Canopy Share price appreciation. Executive compensation for Fiscal 2026 remains aligned with financial performance and the Shareholder experience to the end of Fiscal 2026, evidenced by a significant decrease in realizable equity compensation held by executives. For further discussion on this point, please refer above to “PSU Metric Details and Certification Results”.

Notes:
(1)
Unless otherwise indicated, with respect to all outstanding equity awards held by the NEOs as of March 31, 2026, Options vest in equal one-third installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the continued employment of the respective NEO. RSUs granted in Fiscal 2026, unless otherwise specified, vest in equal one-third installments on June 15 of each of the first three years following the grant date, in alignment with the Company’s standardized vesting approach.
(2)
The market value of the unvested stock awards is calculated by multiplying the number of unvested Canopy Shares held by the applicable NEO by the closing price of the Canopy Shares on March 31, 2026 (the last trading day of Fiscal 2026) on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, which was US$0.95.

Subject to the specific terms of the NEOs’ respective employment agreements, upon a termination of the NEO without cause, Options, RSUs and other Awards will be treated in accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan.
Potential Payments Upon Termination Following a Change in Control
None of the NEOs are entitled to a payment solely upon a change in control pursuant to the terms of their respective employment agreements. However, pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, for a period of 18 months following a Change in Control (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), where a participant’s employment or term of office or engagement is terminated for any reason other than for Cause (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan): (i) any unvested awards as at the date of such termination shall be deemed to have vested, and any period of restriction shall be deemed to have lapsed, as at the date of such termination and shall become payable as at the date of termination; and (ii) the level of achievement of performance goals for any unvested awards that are deemed to have vested pursuant to (i) above shall be based on the actual performance achieved at the end of the applicable period immediately prior to the date of termination.
Ms. Hong’s employment with the Company terminated during Fiscal 2026. The payments and benefits payable to Ms. Hong upon her termination are described above under “Employment Agreements” and are not reflected in the table below. Actual amounts paid to Ms. Hong upon her termination are included in the Summary Compensation Table above.
The table below shows the payments that would be made to the active NEOs upon termination within 18 months following a Change in Control, assuming such termination occurred on March 31, 2026. With the exception of the “Accelerated Awards ($)” and “Total ($)” columns, all amounts in the table below are the same as those presented in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination Without Cause” table above, and all footnotes to the “Cash Payment ($)” and “Benefits ($)” columns in that table apply equally to the corresponding columns below.

Reflect unvested RSU and Option awards, which will be deemed to have vested. The value was calculated based on the closing price of the Canopy Shares on March 31, 2026 (the last trading day of Fiscal 2026) on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, which was US$0.95.
CEO Pay Ratio and Background
Set forth below is the annual total compensation of our median employee, the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mongeau, and the ratio of these two values:

The Fiscal 2026 annual total compensation of the median employee of Canopy Growth (other than our CEO, Mr. Mongeau) was US$46,632 (or approximately C$65,000).

The Fiscal 2026 annualized total compensation of our CEO, Mr. Mongeau, was US$3,586,957 (or approximately C$4,999,860).
59

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 

For Fiscal 2026, the ratio of the annualized total compensation of our CEO to the median annual total compensation of all our other employees was 76 to 1.
To determine the median employee, we used our global employee population as of March 31, 2026. Total compensation for this purpose was calculated using each employee’s annualized base salary, projected STI bonus, and the target value of LTI awards to be granted during the year, where applicable.
Amounts that were originally paid or recorded in Canadian dollars were converted to U.S. dollars using the Bloomberg average exchange rate of C$1.00 to US$0.7174 for the 12-month period ended March 31, 2026.
This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records, pursuant to the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. As such, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.
Pay Versus Performance Table
The following table sets forth information concerning: (i) the compensation of our current CEO (Mr. Mongeau), our former CEO (Mr. Klein), and the average compensation for our other NEOs, both as reported in the Summary Compensation Table and with certain adjustments to reflect the “compensation actually paid” ​(“CAP”) to such individuals, as defined under SEC rules, for each of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 (“Fiscal 2022”), Fiscal 2023, Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2025; and Fiscal 2026 and (ii) our cumulative total shareholder return, (“TSR”), the cumulative TSR of our peer group (“Peer Group TSR”), net income and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) over such years in accordance with SEC rules for each such fiscal year:

Burn Rate
The “burn rate” ​(calculated by dividing the number of awards granted under the Company’s prior Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan”) during the applicable year, by the weighted average number of securities outstanding for the applicable fiscal year) for the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan was 0% in Fiscal 2026 and Fiscal 2025 and 5.2% in Fiscal 2024. The burn rate for PSUs under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan is equal to the maximum number of Shares subject to the PSU awards, assuming a 100% payout of the PSUs. The weighted average number of Shares outstanding used in calculating the “burn rate” as of March 31, 2026, March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, was 298,043,044, 107,553,729 and 74,787,521, respectively.
The “burn rate” ​(calculated by dividing the number of awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan during the applicable year, by the weighted average number of securities outstanding for the applicable

fiscal year) for the Omnibus Incentive Plan was 2.3% in Fiscal 2026, 1.7% in Fiscal 2025 and 0.1% in Fiscal 2024. The weighted average number of Shares outstanding used in calculating such “burn rate” as of March 31, 2026, March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, was 298,043,044, 107,553,729 and 74,787,521, respectively.
Terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan
The Omnibus Incentive Plan is administered by the Board, unless the administration of the Omnibus Incentive Plan has been delegated by the Board to a committee or sub-delegated in accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Board has delegated to the authority to administer the Omnibus Incentive Plan to the CGCN Committee (the “Plan Administrator”), and the Plan Administrator has sole and complete authority, in its discretion, to: (a) determine the individuals to whom grants under the Omnibus Incentive Plan may be made; (b) make grants of Options, RSUs, DSUs or share-based awards (collectively, the “Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards”, together with the Prior Awards (as defined below), the “Awards”) under the Omnibus Incentive Plan relating to the issuance of Shares (including any combination of Options, RSUs or DSUs); (c) establish the form or forms of Omnibus Incentive Plan Award agreements (an “Award Agreement”); (d) cancel, amend, adjust or otherwise change any Omnibus Incentive Plan Award under such circumstances as the Plan Administrator may consider appropriate in accordance with the provisions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan; (e) construe and interpret the Omnibus Incentive Plan and all Award Agreements; (f) adopt, amend, prescribe and rescind administrative guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the Omnibus Incentive Plan; and (g) make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the Omnibus Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2026, there were an aggregate of 36,540,350 Shares (representing approximately 8.7% of the issued and outstanding Shares) that were available for future grants based on the issued and outstanding Shares as of March 31, 2026.
Shares Subject to the Omnibus Incentive Plan
The Omnibus Incentive Plan, which is a “rolling” plan, provides that the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance from treasury pursuant to Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan may not exceed 10% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding Shares from time to time (including Shares reserved for issuance in respect of 400,191 Prior Awards outstanding under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan and in respect of any other Security Based Compensation Arrangement (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan)), such number being [•], in each case, as of the date of this Proxy Statement. The Omnibus Incentive Plan is considered an “evergreen” plan, since the Shares covered by Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards which have been settled, exercised or terminated will be available for subsequent grants under the Omnibus Incentive Plan and the number of Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards available to grant increases as the number of issued and outstanding Shares increases. Pursuant to Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual, unallocated options, rights or other entitlements under a security-based compensation arrangement which does not have a fixed maximum aggregate number of securities issuable must be approved by a majority of an issuer’s directors and by an issuer’s shareholders every three years and was previously approved by Shareholders on September 25, 2023.
Insider Participation Limit
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that the aggregate number of Shares: (a) issuable to Insiders (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) at any time, under all of the Company’s Security Based Compensation Arrangements, may not exceed 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares; and (b) issued to Insiders within any one-year period, under all of the Company’s Security Based Compensation Arrangements, may not exceed 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares.
Eligibility
All directors, employees and consultants will be eligible to participate in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, subject to certain limitations. Participation in the Omnibus Incentive Plan will be voluntary and eligibility to participate will not confer upon any director, employee or consultant any right to receive any grant of an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The extent to which any director, employee or consultant is entitled to receive a grant of an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan will be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Plan Administrator.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Types of Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards; Non-Transferability
Options, RSUs, DSUs and Share-Based Awards may be granted pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan, as further summarized below. All of the Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards described below are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, exercise price, vesting, settlement, and forfeiture provisions determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, subject to such limitations provided in the Omnibus Incentive Plan and will generally be evidenced by an Award Agreement. In addition, subject to the limitations provided in the Omnibus Incentive Plan and in accordance with applicable law, the Plan Administrator may accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards, cancel, or modify outstanding Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards, and waive any condition imposed with respect to Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards or Shares issued pursuant to Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards.
Except as permitted by the Plan Administrator and to the extent that certain rights may pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon death of a Participant (as such term is defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), by will or as required by law, no assignment or transfer of Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, will vest any interest or right in such Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards whatsoever in the assignee or transferee and immediately upon assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, such Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards will terminate and be of no further force or effect.
Options
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that the Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant Options to any Participant. The terms and conditions of each Option grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement. The Plan Administrator will establish the exercise price at the time each Option is granted, which exercise price must in all cases be not less than (a) if the Shares are trading on a U.S. stock exchange, the higher of (i) the volume weighted average trading price of Shares on such U.S. stock exchange for the five trading days ending on the last trading day immediately prior to the applicable date or (ii) the closing price of Shares on the U.S. stock exchange on the applicable date, and if such applicable date is not a trading day, the last market trading day prior to such date; (b) if the Shares are not trading on a U.S. stock exchange, but are listed on a Canadian stock exchange, the higher of (i) the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the Canadian stock exchange for the five trading days ending on the last trading day immediately prior to the applicable date or (ii) the closing price of the Shares on the Canadian stock exchange on the applicable date, and if such applicable date is not a trading day, the last market trading day prior to such date; (c) if the Shares are only listed on an over-the-counter market and sales prices are regularly reported for the Shares, the closing or, if not applicable, the last price of the Shares on the applicable date and if such applicable date is not a trading day, the last market trading day prior to such date; provided that if sales prices are not regularly reported on such over-the-counter market, the mean between the bid and the asked price for the Shares on the close of trading in the over-the-counter market for the most recent trading day on which the Shares were traded on the applicable date and if such applicable date is not a trading day, the last market trading day prior to such date; (d) if the Shares are neither listed on a U.S. stock exchange nor a Canadian stock exchange nor traded in the over-the-counter market, such value as the Plan Administrator, in good faith, shall determine in compliance with applicable laws (for the purposes of this section, the “Fair Market Value”). Subject to any accelerated termination as set forth in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, each Option will expire on the expiry date specified in the Award Agreement (which may not be later than the tenth anniversary of the date of grant) or, if not so specified, the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. The Plan Administrator will have the authority to determine the vesting terms applicable to grants of Options. Once an Option becomes vested, it will remain vested and will be exercisable until expiration or termination of the Option, unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator, or as may be otherwise set forth in any written employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement between the Company or a Related Entity (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) and the Participant. Each vested Option may be exercised at any time or from time to time, in whole or in part, for up to the total number of Shares with respect to which it is then exercisable. The Plan Administrator has the right to accelerate the date upon which any Option becomes exercisable. The Plan Administrator may provide at the time of granting an Option that the exercise of that Option is subject to restrictions, in addition to those specified in the Omnibus Incentive

Plan, such as vesting conditions relating to the attainment of specified Performance Goals (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan).
Unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of granting an Option and set forth in the particular Award Agreement, the exercise notice must be accompanied by payment of the exercise price. Unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the particular Award Agreement, a Participant may, but only if permitted by the Plan Administrator, in lieu of exercising an Option pursuant to an exercise notice, elect to surrender such Option to the Company (a “Cashless Exercise”) in consideration for an amount from the Company equal to: (i) the Fair Market Value of the Shares issuable on the exercise of such Option (or portion thereof) as of the date such Option (or portion thereof) is exercised, less (ii) the aggregate exercise price of the Option (or portion thereof) surrendered relating to such Shares (the “In-the-Money Amount”), by written notice to the Company indicating the number of Options such participant wishes to exercise using the Cashless Exercise, and such other information that the Company may require. Subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Company will satisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the Participant such number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number) having a fair market value equal to the In-the-Money Amount.
Restricted Share Units (RSUs)
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that the Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant RSUs to any Participant, including in respect of a bonus or similar payment in respect of services rendered by the applicable Participant in a taxation year. The terms and conditions of each RSU grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each RSU will consist of a right to receive a Share upon the settlement of such RSU.
The number of RSUs (including fractional RSUs) granted in respect of a bonus or similar payment at any particular time pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan will be calculated by dividing: (i) the amount of any bonus or similar payment that is to be paid in RSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator, by (ii) the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant; and (B) such amount as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. Subject to the conditions in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Plan Administrator will have the authority to determine any vesting terms applicable to the grant of RSUs, including vesting conditions relating to the attainment of specified Performance Goals.
Subject to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan and except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, on the settlement date for any RSU, the Participant will redeem each vested RSU for one fully paid and non-assessable Share issued from treasury to the Participant. The Plan Administrator will have the sole authority to determine any other settlement terms applicable to the grant of RSUs. However, the settlement date for any RSU will occur no later than December 31st of the fifth calendar year following the calendar year in which the date of grant occurred in respect of the corresponding Award Agreement.
Deferred Share Units (DSUs)
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that a portion of the Director Fees (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) may be payable in the form of DSUs. In addition, each Electing Person (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) will be given, subject to the conditions stated in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the right to elect to participate in the grant of additional DSUs. An Electing Person who elects to participate in the grant of additional DSUs will receive their Elected Amount, being an amount, as elected by the Director (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), in accordance with applicable tax law, between 0% and 100% of any Director Fees that would otherwise be paid in cash, in the form of DSUs. Each Electing Person who elects to receive their Elected Amount in the form of DSUs will be required to file an Election Notice (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) with the CFO of the Company: (i) in the case of an existing Electing Person, by December 31st in the year prior to the year to which such election is to apply; and (ii) in the case of a newly appointed Electing Person who is not a U.S. Taxpayer (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), within 30 days of such appointment with respect to compensation paid for services to be performed after such date.
The number of DSUs (including fractional DSUs) granted at any particular time pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan will be calculated by dividing: (i) the amount of Director Fees that are to
68

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
be paid as DSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator or Director Fees that are to be paid in DSUs (including any Elected Amount), by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. In addition to the foregoing, the Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of this Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant DSUs to any Participant. Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award Agreement, DSUs will vest immediately upon grant.
On the settlement date for any DSU, the Participant will redeem each vested DSU for: (i) one fully paid and non-assessable Share issued from treasury to the Participant or as the Participant may direct; or (ii) at the election of the Participant and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, a cash payment. Any cash payments made pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan by the Corporation to a Participant in respect of DSUs to be redeemed for cash will be calculated by multiplying the number of DSUs to be redeemed for cash by the Fair Market Value per Share as at the settlement date.
Share-Based Awards
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that the Plan Administrator may grant other types of equity-based or equity-related Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards (including the grant or offer for sale of unrestricted Shares) in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, being subject to performance criteria, or in satisfaction of such obligations, as the Plan Administrator may determine. Such awards may involve the issuance of actual Shares to Participants, or payment in cash or otherwise of amounts based on the value of Shares. To the extent an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award is settled in cash, settlement must occur no later than December 31 of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which the date of grant occurs in respect of the relevant Award Agreement.
Dividend Equivalents
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award Agreement, an award of RSUs and DSUs will include the right for such RSUs and DSUs to be credited with dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs and DSUs, respectively, as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on Shares. Such dividend equivalents will be computed by dividing: (i) the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the dividend declared and paid per Share by the number of RSUs and DSUs, as applicable, held by the Participant on the record date for the payment of such dividend, by (ii) the Fair Market Value at the close of the first business day immediately following the dividend record date, with fractions computed to three decimal places. Dividend equivalents credited to a Participant’s account will vest in proportion to the RSUs and DSUs to which they relate and will be settled in accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan.
Blackout Periods
Pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, in the event an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award expires or vests at a time when a scheduled blackout is in place or an undisclosed material change or material fact in the affairs of the Company exists, the expiry or settlement of such award will be delayed (in a manner and to the extent such delay complies with Section 409A of the Revenue Code (as defined below) with respect to any U.S. Taxpayer) until the earlier of: (i) the date that is two business days after which such scheduled blackout terminates; or (ii) there is no longer such undisclosed material change or material fact.
Termination of Employment or Services
Subject to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in an employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement:
(a)
where a Participant’s employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated by the Company or a Related Entity for Cause (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), then any Option or other Omnibus Incentive Plan Award held by the Participant that has not been exercised, surrendered or settled as of the Termination Date (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Termination Date;
69

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
(b)
where a Participant’s employment, consulting agreement or arrangement is terminated by the Company or a Related Entity without Cause (whether such termination occurs with or without any or adequate reasonable notice, or with or without any or adequate compensation in lieu of such reasonable notice), or by reason of resignation by the Participant, or on account of his or her becoming Disabled (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), or by reason of the death of the Participant, there will be no further vesting of any unvested Options or other Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards after the Termination Date. Any vested Options may be exercised by the Participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the expiry date of such Option; and (B) the date that is three months after the Termination Date. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (A) or (B), the Option will be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Omnibus Incentive Plan Award other than an Option, that is held by a Participant who is not a U.S. Taxpayer, such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award will be settled within 90 days after the Termination Date. In the case of vested Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards of a U.S. Taxpayer, vested RSUs will be settled within 90 days after the Termination Date, vested DSUs will be settled in accordance with the Participant’s DSU Election Notice (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), provided that in all cases such RSUs will be settled by March 15th of the year following the year of the applicable vesting event;
(c)
a Participant’s eligibility to receive further grants of Options or other Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards ceases as of:
(i)
the Termination Date; or
(ii)
the date of the death of the Participant;
(d)
unless the Plan Administrator, in its discretion, otherwise determines, at any time and from time to time, Options or other Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards will not be affected by a change of employment or consulting agreement or arrangement, a directorship within or among the Company or a Related Entity for so long as the Participant continues to be a Director, Employee or Consultant (as such terms are defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), as applicable, of the Company or a Related Entity; and
(e)
except as otherwise provided in an applicable Award Agreement or employment agreement, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, in the case of an Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards (other than an Option or DSU) that is granted to a U.S. Taxpayer and that becomes vested (in whole or in part) pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan upon the Participant’s Termination Date, such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award will, subject to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, be settled as soon as administratively practicable following the Participant’s Termination Date but in no event later than 90 days following the Participant’s Termination Date, provided that if such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award is an RSU, settlement will occur no later than March 15th of the year following the year of the applicable vesting event.
Change in Control
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that except as may be set forth in an employment agreement, Award Agreement or other written agreement between the Company or a Related Entity and a Participant:
(a)
Subject to the terms and conditions in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Plan Administrator may, without the consent of any Participant, take such steps as it deems necessary or desirable, including to cause: (i) the conversion or exchange of any outstanding Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards into or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Plan Administrator in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change in Control (as defined below), (ii) outstanding Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards to vest and become exercisable, realizable, or payable, or restrictions applicable to an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award to lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon consummation of such merger or Change in Control, and, to the extent the Plan Administrator determines, terminate upon or
70

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
immediately prior to the effectiveness of such merger or Change in Control, (iii) the termination of an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise or settlement of such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award or realization of the Participant’s rights as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction the Plan Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise or settlement of such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award may be terminated by the Company without payment), (iv) the replacement of such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award with other rights or property selected by the Board in its sole discretion where such replacement would not adversely affect the holder, or (v) any combination of the foregoing. The Plan Administrator will not be required to treat all Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards similarly in the transaction.
(b)
If the Participant is an executive officer or director of the Company, within 18 months following the completion of a transaction resulting in a Change in Control, a Participant’s employment or directorship is terminated by the Company or a Related Entity without Cause:
(i)
any unvested Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards held by such Participant at the Termination Date shall immediately vest, with any Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards that vest based on Performance Goals vesting at their specified level of attainment; and
(ii)
any vested Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards of such Participants may be exercised, surrendered or settled by such Participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (A) the expiry date of such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award; and (B) the date that is three months after the Termination Date, provided that any vested Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards (other than Options) granted to U.S. Taxpayers will be settled within 90 days of the Participant’s Termination Date, provided that if such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award is an RSU, settlement will occur no later than March 15th of the year following the year of the applicable vesting event. Any Omnibus Incentive Plan Award that has not been exercised, surrendered or settled at the end of such period will be immediately forfeited and cancelled.
(c)
Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator, if, as a result of a Change in Control, the Shares will cease trading on the U.S. stock exchange, the Canadian stock exchange or any other exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed, then the Company may terminate all of the Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards, other than an Option held by a Canadian Taxpayer (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan) for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan at the time of and subject to the completion of the Change in Control transaction by paying to each holder at or within a reasonable period of time following completion of such Change in Control transaction an amount for each Omnibus Incentive Plan Award equal to the fair market value of the Omnibus Incentive Plan Award held by such Participant as determined by the Plan Administrator, acting reasonably, provided that any vested Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards granted to U.S. Taxpayers will be settled within 90 days of the Change in Control.
For purposes of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, “Change in Control” means the occurrence of: (i) any individual, entity or group of individuals or entities acting jointly or in concert (other than the Company, its affiliates or an employee benefit plan or trust maintained by the Company or its affiliates, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the Shareholders in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Shares) acquiring beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (excluding any person who becomes such a beneficial owner in connection with a transaction described in clause (ii) of this definition; (ii) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof) more than 50% of the combined voting power or the total fair market value of the securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, provided, however, that a merger or consolidation effected to implement a
71

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no person (other than those covered by the exceptions in clause (i) of this definition) acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities will not constitute a Change in Control; or (iii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the consummation of any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, other than such liquidation, sale or disposition to a person or persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company at the time of the sale). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Omnibus Incentive Plan Award that is characterized as “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Revenue Code, an event will not be considered to be a Change in Control under the Omnibus Incentive Plan for purposes of payment of such Omnibus Incentive Plan Award unless such event constitutes a change in ownership or control of the Company, or a change in ownership of the Company’s within the meaning of Section 409A of the Revenue Code.
Amendments, Suspension or Termination of the Omnibus Incentive Plan
The Omnibus Incentive Plan will terminate on June 20, 2033, the date which is ten years from the date of its adoption by the Board. The Omnibus Incentive Plan may be terminated at an earlier date by vote of the Shareholders or the Board; provided, however, that any such earlier termination will not affect any Award Agreements executed prior to the effective date of such termination. Termination of the Omnibus Incentive Plan will not affect any Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards theretofore granted. The Plan Administrator may from time to time, without notice, or upon notice in accordance with and limited to any applicable Employment Standards (as defined in the Omnibus Incentive Plan), and without approval of the Shareholders of the Company, amend, modify, change, suspend or terminate the Omnibus Incentive Plan or any Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards granted pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan as it, in its discretion determines appropriate, provided, however, that:
(a)
no such amendment, modification, change, suspension or termination of the Omnibus Incentive Plan or any Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards granted thereunder may materially impair any rights of a Participant or materially increase any obligations of a Participant under the Omnibus Incentive Plan without the consent of the Participant, unless the Plan Administrator determines such adjustment is required or desirable in order to comply with any requirements under applicable securities laws or any requirements of the U.S. stock exchange or the Canadian stock exchange; and
(b)
any amendment that would cause an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award held by a U.S. Taxpayer to be subject to income inclusion under Section 409A of the Revenue Code will be null and void ab initio with respect to the U.S. Taxpayer unless the consent of the U.S. Taxpayer is obtained.
Amendments Requiring Shareholder Approval
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that Shareholder approval will be required for any amendment, modification or change that:
(a)
reduces the exercise price or purchase price of an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award benefiting an Insider of the Company;
(b)
extends the term of an Omnibus Incentive Plan Award benefiting an Insider of the Company;
(c)
increases the percentage or number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, except pursuant to the provisions under Article 10 of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, which permit the Plan Administrator to make equitable adjustments in the event of transactions affecting the Company or its capital;
(d)
increases or removes the 10% limits on Shares issuable or issued to Insiders;
(e)
reduces the exercise price of an Option award (for this purpose, a cancellation or termination of an Option award of a Participant prior to its expiry date for the purpose of reissuing an Option Award to the same Participant with a lower exercise price or any other action that is treated as a
72

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
repricing under generally accepted accounting principles will be treated as an amendment to reduce the exercise price of an Option award), except pursuant to the provisions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, which permit the Plan Administrator to make equitable adjustments in the event of transactions affecting the Company or its capital;
(f)
extends the term of an Option award beyond the original expiry date (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period applicable to the Participant or within 10 business days following the expiry of such a blackout period);
(g)
permits an Option award to be exercisable beyond 10 years from its date of grant (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period of the Company);
(h)
permits Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards to be transferred to a person in circumstances other than those specified under Section 3.9 of the Omnibus Incentive Plan (Non-Transferability of Awards);
(i)
changes the eligible participants of the Omnibus Incentive Plan; or
(j)
deletes or reduces the range of amendments which require approval of Shareholders under Section 12.2 of the Omnibus Incentive Plan (Shareholder Approval).
Permitted Amendments
The Omnibus Incentive Plan provides that the Plan Administrator may, without Shareholder approval, at any time or from time to time, amend the Omnibus Incentive Plan for the purposes of:
(a)
making any amendments to the general vesting provisions of each Omnibus Incentive Plan Award;
(b)
making any amendments to the provisions set out in Article 9 of the Omnibus Incentive Plan (Termination of Employment or Services);
(c)
making any amendments to add covenants of the Company for the protection of Participants, as the case may be, provided that the Plan Administrator shall be of the good faith opinion that such additions will not be prejudicial to the rights or interests of the Participants, as the case may be;
(d)
making any amendments not inconsistent with the Omnibus Incentive Plan as may be necessary or desirable with respect to matters or questions which, in the good faith opinion of the Plan Administrator, having in mind the best interests of the Participants, it may be expedient to make, including amendments that are desirable as a result of changes in law in any jurisdiction where a Participant resides, provided that the Plan Administrator shall be of the opinion that such amendments and modifications will not be prejudicial to the interests of the Participants; or
(e)
making such changes or corrections which, on the advice of counsel to the Company, are required for the purpose of curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error, provided that the Plan Administrator shall be of the opinion that such changes or corrections will not be prejudicial to the rights and interests of the Participants.
Terms of the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan
The following brief description of the material features of the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Company may issue Share-based long-term incentives. Any employee, officer, director, consultant or, subject to applicable securities laws, other advisor of, or any other individual who provides services to, the Company and/or its affiliates (“Company Personnel”), is eligible to receive awards of Options, stock appreciation rights (“Stock Appreciation Rights”), RSUs, DSUs, annual or long-term Performance Awards (as defined in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan) or other stock-based award under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Prior Awards”).
73

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Following the Omnibus Incentive Plan becoming effective and as of March 31, 2024, there were nil Shares reserved for future grants pursuant to the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan.
The purpose of the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan is to attract, retain and reward those employees, directors and other individuals who are expected to contribute significantly to the success of the Company and its affiliates, to incentivize such individuals to perform at the highest level, to strengthen the mutuality of interests between such individuals and the Company’s Shareholders and, in general, to further the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders.
The Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan is administered by the CGCN Committee; provided, however, with respect to any decision relating to an officer or director who is required to file reports pursuant to Section 16a-3 of the Exchange Act, any decision must be made solely by two or more members of the Board who are “Non-Employee Directors” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.
Pursuant to Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual, unallocated options, rights or other entitlements under a security-based compensation arrangement which does not have a fixed maximum aggregate number of securities issuable must be approved by a majority of an issuer’s directors and by an issuer’s shareholders every three years and was previously approved by Shareholders on September 21, 2020; however, since the Company does not intend to issue any additional Prior Awards under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, such shareholder approval will not be required in connection with the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan. Except as may be permitted by the CGCN Committee, as specifically provided in an agreement granting a Prior Award or as otherwise specifically provided by law, no Prior Award or other benefit payable under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan is transferable in any manner other than by will or the law of descent.
Shares Available for Prior Awards; Participation Limitations
The maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares, from time to time, when taken together with all other Security Based Compensation Arrangements (as defined in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan) of the Company. The Omnibus Incentive Plan is the Company’s only other Security Based Compensation Arrangement in Fiscal 2026; however, since the effectiveness of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the Company has not and does not intend to grant any additional Prior Awards pursuant to the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan. Prior to the Omnibus Incentive Plan becoming effective, if any Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other stock-based Awards granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan expired, terminated or was canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of Shares underlying any unexercised Prior Award would have again been available for the purpose of Prior Awards under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan.
The maximum number of Shares issuable pursuant to Prior Awards that may have been granted to a single participant under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan during any fiscal year is 1,000,000 Shares. In addition, the maximum number of Shares issuable to insiders under all Security Based Compensation Arrangements, at any time, may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares. Within any one-year period, the number of Shares issued to insiders under all Security Based Compensation Arrangements also may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Shares.
The maximum equity value of Options granted to a non-employee director within a one-year period may not exceed C$100,000 (or approximately US$79,760) and the maximum aggregate equity value of all Prior Awards that are eligible to be settled in Shares granted to a non-employee director within a one-year period pursuant to all Security Based Compensation Arrangements may not exceed C$150,000 (or approximately US$119,640).
In the event that a participant holds 20% or more of the issued and outstanding Shares, such participant may only have been granted Prior Awards that could be settled in cash. In addition, if the settlement of a Prior Award in Shares would cause the participant to hold 20% or more of the issued and outstanding Shares, such participant may only have been granted Prior Awards that could be settled in cash.
Change in Control
Subject to certain exceptions set out in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined below) will not result in the vesting of unvested Prior Awards nor the lapse of any
74

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
period of restriction pertaining to any restricted stock or RSUs (“Unvested Awards”). Subject to the CGCN Committee reasonably determining otherwise, for the period of 24 months following a Change in Control, where a participant is terminated for any reason, other than for cause: (i) any Unvested Awards as at the date of such termination will be deemed to have vested, and any period of restriction will be deemed to have lapsed, as at the date of such termination and will become payable as at the date of termination; and (ii) the level of achievement of performance goals for any Unvested Awards that are deemed to have vested pursuant to (i) above, will be based on the actual performance achieved at the end of the applicable period immediately prior to the date of termination.
For purposes of the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, “Change in Control” means the occurrence of: (i) any individual, entity or group of individuals or entities acting jointly or in concert (other than the Company, its affiliates or an employee benefit plan or trust maintained by the Company or its affiliates, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the Shareholders in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Shares) acquiring beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (excluding any person who becomes such a beneficial owner in connection with a transaction described in clause (ii); (ii) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company with any other Company, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof) more than 30% of the combined voting power or the total fair market value of the securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, provided, however, that a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no person (other than those covered by the exceptions in clause (i) of this definition) acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities will not constitute a Change in Control; or (iii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the consummation of any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, other than such liquidation, sale or disposition to a person or persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 30% of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company at the time of the sale). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Prior Award that is characterized as “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the US Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the “Revenue Code”), an event will not be considered to be a Change in Control under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan for purposes of payment of such Prior Award unless such event is also a “change in ownership,” a “change in effective control” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Revenue Code.
Termination
Except as otherwise provided by the CGCN Committee in an agreement granting a Prior Award, (i) if a participant resigns or is terminated, only the portion of the Options that have vested and are exercisable at the date of any such resignation or termination may be exercised by the participant during the period ending 90 days after the date of resignation or termination, as applicable, after which period all Options granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan expire; and (ii) any Options granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, whether vested or unvested, will expire immediately upon the participant being terminated for cause.
Amendment
Unless required in accordance with the policies of the TSX, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan and any outstanding Prior Awards granted thereunder, in whole or in part, at any time without notice to or approval by the Shareholders, provided that all material amendments to the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan require the prior approval of Shareholders. In particular, the following amendments to the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan require the prior approval of Shareholders: (i) an increase in the maximum number of Shares that may be made the subject of Awards under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan; (ii) any adjustment (other than as set out in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan) or amendment that reduces or would have the effect of reducing the exercise price of an

Option or Stock Appreciation Right previously granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, whether through amendment, cancellation or replacement grants, or other means (provided that, in such a case, insiders of the Company who benefit from such amendment are not eligible to vote their Shares in respect of the approval); (iii) an increase in the limits on Prior Awards that may be granted to any participant under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan; (iv) an extension of the term of an outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan beyond the expiry date thereof; (v) permitting Options granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan to be transferrable other than for normal estate settlement purposes; and (vi) any amendment to the plan amendment provisions, subject to certain exceptions included in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Nasdaq Rules have similar Shareholder approval requirements for material revisions to the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan.
Options
The purchase price per Share under an Option granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan will be determined by the CGCN Committee; provided, however, that, subject to certain exceptions described in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, such purchase price may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan) of a Share on the date of grant of such Option. With the approval of the CGCN Committee, a participant may elect to exercise an Option granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, in whole or in part, without payment of the aggregate Option price due on such exercise by electing to receive Shares equal in value to the difference between the Option price and the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise computed in accordance with the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan.
Except as otherwise provided by the CGCN Committee in an agreement granting a Prior Award, Options granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan will vest over three-years on each anniversary of the date of the grant.
The term of each Option granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan will not exceed 10 years from the date of grant. Subject to certain exceptions set out in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, if the term of an Option granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan would expire during, or within 10 business days of the expiration of a Blackout Period (as defined in the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan), then the term of such Option will be extended to the close of business on the tenth business day following the expiration of the Blackout Period.
RSUs
Shares of restricted stock and RSUs granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan are subject to such restrictions as the CGCN Committee may impose (including, without limitation, any limitation on the right to receive any dividend or dividend equivalent or other rights). Such restrictions may lapse as the CGCN Committee may deem appropriate. No RSU granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan may vest later than three years after the date of grant. The CGCN Committee may in its discretion waive in whole or in part any or all restrictions with respect to Shares of restricted stock or RSUs granted under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan.
Performance Awards
The CGCN Committee was permitted to grant a Performance Award to a participant payable upon the attainment of specific performance goals. If the Performance Award is payable in cash, it may be paid upon the attainment of the relevant performance goals either in cash or in shares of restricted stock (based on the then current Fair Market Value of such Shares), as determined by the CGCN Committee.
Except as otherwise provided in an agreement granting a Prior Award, upon a participant’s termination, the Performance Award will vest or be forfeited in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the CGCN Committee at the time of the grant of the Performance Award.
The CGCN Committee may, at or after grant, due to such service, performance and/or such other factors or criteria, accelerate on a pro rata basis the vesting of all or any part of any Performance Award.
When Performance Awards become payable, a participant will be entitled to receive payment in cash, Shares of equivalent value, some combination thereof, or in any other form determined by the CGCN Committee at its sole discretion.

For the purposes of this paragraph, “support agreement” includes, but is not limited to, an agreement to provide assistance in the maintenance or servicing of any indebtedness and an agreement to provide compensation for the purpose of maintaining or servicing any indebtedness of the borrower.
INTEREST OF INFORMED PERSONS IN MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS
Other than as disclosed in this Proxy Statement, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, no director or executive officer of the Company or persons or companies who directly or indirectly beneficially own, or exercise control or direction over, more than 10% of any class of the Company’s outstanding voting securities, nor any associate or affiliate of the foregoing persons, has or has had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction since the commencement of Fiscal 2026 or in any proposed transaction which has materially affected or will materially affect the Company.
MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS
The management functions of the Company are not, to any substantial degree, performed by a person or persons other than the Company’s directors or senior officers.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
We or one of our subsidiaries may occasionally enter into transactions with certain “related persons” as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K. Related persons include our executive officers, directors, director nominees, persons beneficially owning 5% or more of the Shares, immediate family members of these persons and entities in which one of these persons has a direct or indirect material interest. We generally refer to transactions with these related persons as “related person transactions”.
The CBI Group Investments
On April 14, 2023, Greenstar entered into an exchange agreement with the Company pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase for cancellation the remaining C$100 million principal amount of senior notes of the Company due July 2023 (the “Canopy Notes”) held by Greenstar in exchange for: (i) a cash payment to Greenstar in the amount of unpaid and accrued interest owing under the Canopy Notes held by Greenstar; and (ii) a promissory note (the “CBI Note”) issued to Greenstar in the aggregate principal amount of C$100 million payable on December 31, 2024.
Approval of Exchangeable Shares and Related Matters
At a special meeting (the “Special Meeting”) of shareholders of the Company held on April 12, 2024, the Company’s shareholders passed a special resolution authorizing and approving an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, in order to: (i) create and authorize the issuance of an unlimited number of a new class of non-voting and non-participating exchangeable shares (the “Exchangeable Shares”) and (ii) restate the rights of the Shares to provide for a conversion feature whereby each Share may at any time, at the option of the holder, be converted into one Exchangeable Share (the “Exchangeable Shares Resolution”).
On April 18, 2024, in connection with the approval of the Exchangeable Shares Resolution and the creation of the Exchangeable Shares, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “April 2024 Exchange Agreement”) with Greenstar, pursuant to which Greenstar converted approximately C$81.2 million of principal amount of the C$100 million principal amount CBI Note into 9,111,549 Exchangeable Shares

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
(the “Note Exchange”), calculated based on a price per Exchangeable Share equal to C$8.91. Pursuant to the terms of the April 2024 Exchange Agreement, all accrued and unpaid interest on the CBI Note together with the remaining principal amount of the CBI Note was cancelled and forgiven for no additional consideration by Greenstar. Following the closing of the Note Exchange, there is no outstanding balance owing under the CBI Note and the CBI Note has been cancelled.
Concurrently with the Note Exchange, Greenstar and CBG Holdings LLC (“CBG” and, together with Greenstar, the “CBG Group”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Constellation Brands, Inc., exchanged all 17,149,925 Canopy Shares they collectively held for 17,149,925 Exchangeable Shares (the “CBI Exchange”) for no consideration pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended in accordance with the Exchangeable Shares Resolution. As a result of the CBI Exchange and the Note Exchange, the CBG Group no longer holds any Canopy Shares and, as of June 11, 2026, the CBG Group held an aggregate of 26,261,474 Exchangeable Shares. Assuming the conversion of CBG Group’s Exchangeable Shares into Canopy Shares, CBG Group would own 5.9% of the outstanding Canopy Shares as of June 11, 2026.
Policy Regarding Related Person Transactions
The Board and the Audit Committee updated a written policy on May 28, 2025, which updated the prior policy adopted on June 20, 2023, providing that all related person transactions or series of similar transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to SEC Regulation S-K Item 404(a) must be presented to the Board for pre-approval or ratification. The policy requires each of our (i) directors or director nominees, (ii) executive officers, and (iii) security holders known by the Company to own of record or to beneficially own more than 5% of any class of our voting securities to notify the Chief Business Development & Corporate Affairs Officer (“CBCO”) promptly and, whenever possible, in advance of the occurrence of any potential related person transaction in which such person is directly or indirectly involved.
The CBCO is responsible for reviewing all potential related person transactions and taking reasonable steps to ensure that all related person transactions requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K are presented to the Audit Committee for pre-approval or ratification by members of the committee in their discretion at the committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting or, if deemed appropriate, by consent in lieu of a meeting. No director may engage in a vote to pre-approve or ratify any related person transaction in which he or she or any member of his or her immediate family has a material interest; provided, however, that such director must provide any information concerning such related person transaction that the Audit Committee may reasonably request. If a potential related person transaction involves the CBCO, the CFO would assume the responsibilities of the CBCO under the policy with respect to that transaction.
The Audit Committee may consider all factors it deems relevant when determining whether to approve or ratify a related person transaction. In the context of evaluating potential transactions, the Audit Committee may consider, among other factors, the nature of the transaction and the related person’s interest in the transaction, the size of the transaction, whether we are able to engage in a comparable transaction with an unaffiliated party on more favorable terms, the benefit of the transaction to the Company, and the impact of the transaction on the related person. Following the adoption of this policy, we are not aware of any related person transaction required to be reported under Regulation S-K Item 404(a) that has not been pre-approved or ratified pursuant to this policy.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
The Audit Committee of the Board provides oversight to our financial reporting process through periodic meetings with our independent registered public accounting firm, internal auditors, and management. Our management is responsible for the preparation and integrity of the financial reporting information and related systems of internal controls. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements and our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and for issuing reports thereon. The Audit Committee, in carrying out its role, relies on our senior management and independent registered public accounting firm.
In connection with the preparation and filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 (the “2026 10-K”), the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with our management and with PKF O’Connor Davies LLP (“PKFOD”), our independent registered public accounting firm for Fiscal 2026, our audited financial statements and related disclosures and PKFOD’s evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting. Also, the Audit Committee discussed with PKFOD the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC.
In addition, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from PKFOD required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding PKFOD’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee also has discussed with PKFOD the independence of that firm as our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has concluded that PKFOD’s provision of audit and non-audit services to us is compatible with PKFOD’s independence.
Based on the review and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that our audited consolidated financial statements be included in the 2026 10-K for filing with the SEC.
Respectfully submitted by the members of Audit Committee

PROPOSAL NO. 3 – SHARE CONSOLIDATION PROPOSAL
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and, if deemed advisable, to pass, with or without variation, the Share Consolidation Resolution, the full text of which is set out below, approving the amendment to the articles of the Company to provide that: (i) the authorized capital of the Company be altered by consolidating all of the issued and outstanding Shares and Exchangeable Shares on the basis of a ratio to be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion, within a range of one post-consolidation share for every five to fifteen outstanding pre-consolidation shares (the “Consolidation Range”) at any time prior to September 25, 2027 (or the date that is 12 months immediately following the date that any adjourned or postponed Meeting is reconvened or held, as the case may be), with the exact ratios to be set at a whole number within this range by the Board in its sole discretion and applicable for both the Shares and Exchangeable Shares (the “Share Consolidation”); and (ii) any fractional shares arising from the consolidation of the Shares and Exchangeable Shares will be deemed to have been tendered by its registered owner to the Company for cancellation for no consideration.
If the Share Consolidation Resolution is approved, the Share Consolidation would only be implemented, if at all, upon a determination by the Board that it is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. The Board’s selection of the specific ratio will be based primarily on the price of the Shares at the given time and expected stability of that price.
If the Board does not implement the Share Consolidation within 12 months of the date of the Meeting, the authority granted by the Share Consolidation Resolution will lapse and be of no further force or effect.
The text of the Share Consolidation Resolution which Shareholders will be asked to pass as a special resolution at the Meeting is set out below:
“BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
1.
the articles of Canopy Growth Corporation (the “Company”) shall be amended to provide that: (i) the authorized capital of the Company is altered by consolidating all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company (the “Shares”) and exchangeable shares of the Company (the “Exchangeable Shares”) on the basis of a ratio to be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion, within a range of one post-consolidation Share for every five to fifteen outstanding pre-consolidation shares (the “Consolidation Range”) and the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) be hereby authorized to determine the final consolidation ratio within such Consolidation Range, in its sole discretion, such amendment to become effective on such date and time the Board may determine within one year of the date hereof (the “Share Consolidation”); and (ii) any fractional shares arising from the consolidation of the Shares and Exchangeable Shares will be deemed to have been tendered by its registered owner to the Company for cancellation for no consideration, all as more fully described in the Company’s proxy statement dated August 7, 2026, and subject to all necessary stock exchange approvals;
2.
the Company shall deliver the articles of amendment reflecting such Share Consolidation in the prescribed form to the Director appointed under the Canada Business Corporations Act;
3.
notwithstanding that this resolution has been duly passed by the shareholders of the Company, the directors of the Company are hereby authorized and empowered, if they decide not to proceed with the aforementioned resolution, to revoke this resolution at any time prior to giving effect thereto, without further notice to, or approval of, the shareholders of the Company; and
4.
any one or more of the directors or officers of the Company is hereby authorized and directed, acting for, in the name of and on behalf of the Company, to execute or cause to be executed, under the seal of the Company or otherwise, and to deliver or cause to be delivered, such other documents and instruments, and to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may in the opinion of such director or officer of the Company be necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of the foregoing resolutions, the execution of any such document or the doing of any such other act or thing by any director or officer of the Company being conclusive evidence of such determination.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Background and Reason for the Share Consolidation Proposal
To remain listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Nasdaq Rules require that the minimum bid price of our Shares be at least $1.00 per Share (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”). Our primary objective in seeking Shareholder approval of the Share Consolidation Proposal is to be in a position to raise the per-share trading price of our Shares to meet the requirements for the continued listing of our Shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market in the event the price of our Shares declines. At the Company’s 2025 Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders, Shareholders approved a substantially identical share consolidation proposal to the Share Consolidation Proposal (the “2025 Share Consolidation Authorization”). However, a share consolidation was not required during the authorized period and as such the Board has not implemented a share consolidation pursuant to the 2025 Share Consolidation Authorization. Given the share price volatility in the sector, the Board is seeking to renew Shareholder approval of the Share Consolidation in order to ensure the Company remains compliant with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. As of the date hereof, the closing price for the Shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market was $[•] per Share[, and the closing price of our Shares was below $1.00 on several other days in July of 2026.] Under Nasdaq Rules, we will receive a deficiency letter if the closing price of our Shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market remains below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days. Thus, we are seeking shareholder approval of the Share Consolidation Proposal primarily so that the Board is in a position to implement the Share Consolidation in the event we fall out of compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. However, the Board could determine to implement the Share Consolidation Proposal even if we remain in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule to have a higher per Share stock price for the reasons discussed below or the Board could determine not to implement the Share Consolidation Proposal even if we are not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.
We expect that the Share Consolidation, if effectuated, would increase the bid price per Share and, if necessary, allow the Company to comply with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. However, there can be no assurance that the Share Consolidation would have that effect, initially or in the future, or that it would enable us to maintain the listing of the Shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other tier of Nasdaq. We are not aware of any present efforts by anyone to accumulate our Shares, and the proposed Share Consolidation is not intended to be an anti-takeover device.
In addition, we believe that the low market price of our Shares impairs their marketability to, and acceptance by, some institutional investors and other members of the investing public and has a negative effect on impressions of the Company. Theoretically, decreasing the number of Shares outstanding should not, by itself, affect the marketability of the Shares, the type of investor that would be interested in acquiring them or our reputation in the financial community. In practice, however, many investors, brokerage firms and market makers consider low-priced stocks as unduly speculative in nature and, as a matter of policy, avoid investment and trading in such stocks. Moreover, the analysts at many brokerage firms do not monitor the trading activity or otherwise provide coverage of lower-priced stocks. The presence of these factors may be adversely affecting, and may continue to adversely affect, not only the price of the Shares but also their trading liquidity. In addition, these factors may affect our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of Shares.
We also believe that a higher Share price could help us attract and retain employees and other service providers. We believe that some potential employees and service providers are less likely to work for a company with a low Share price, regardless of the size of the Company’s market capitalization. If the Share Consolidation successfully increases the per-share price of our Shares, we believe this increase would enhance our ability to attract and retain employees and service providers.
Effects of the Share Consolidation
If the Share Consolidation is implemented, its principal effect will be to proportionately decrease the number of issued and outstanding Shares and Exchangeable Shares by a factor equal to the consolidation ratio selected by the Board. For illustrative purposes only, the following table sets forth, based on the number of Shares and Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding as of the Record Date, the number of Shares and Exchangeable Shares that would be issued and outstanding (disregarding any resulting fractional Shares and Exchangeable Shares and subject to any issuances occurring after such date) following the implementation of the Share Consolidation, at various consolidation ratios:
83

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Share Consolidation Ratio Shares Outstanding Post-Share Consolidation(1) Exchangeable Shares Outstanding
Post-Share Consolidation
(2)
one post-consolidation Share and Exchangeable Share for every 5 pre-consolidation Shares/Exchangeable Shares [•] 5,252,294
one post-consolidation Share and Exchangeable Share for every 15 pre-consolidation Shares/Exchangeable Shares [•] 1,750,764
Notes:
(1)
Based on [•] issued and outstanding Shares as of the Record Date.
(2)
Based on 26,261,474 issued and outstanding Exchangeable Shares as of the Record Date.
The Company does not expect the Share Consolidation itself to have any economic effect on holders of Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable to acquire Shares, except to the extent the Share Consolidation will result in fractional Shares. See “No Fractional Shares” below.
The Company will not proceed with the Share Consolidation if it will affect the listing of the Shares on the TSX or the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
Voting rights and other rights of the holders of Shares prior to the implementation of the Share Consolidation will not be affected by the Share Consolidation, other than as a result of the creation and disposition of fractional Shares as described below.
Effect on Non-Registered Shareholders
Non-registered Shareholders holding Shares through an Intermediary should be aware that the Intermediary may have different procedures for processing a consolidation than those that will be put in place by the Company for registered Shareholders. If Shareholders hold their Shares through an Intermediary and they have questions in this regard, they are encouraged to contact their Intermediary.
Effect of the Share Consolidation on Convertible Securities
The exercise or conversion price and/or the number of Shares issuable under any of the Company’s outstanding convertible securities, including under outstanding Options, warrants, rights, convertible debentures and any other similar securities will be proportionately adjusted upon the implementation of the Share Consolidation, in accordance with the terms of such securities, based on the Share Consolidation ratio.
Effect on Share Certificates
If the Share Consolidation is approved by Shareholders and subsequently implemented, those registered Shareholders who will hold at least one post Share Consolidation Share or Exchangeable Share will be required to exchange their share certificates representing pre-consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares for share certificates representing post-consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares following the Share Consolidation or, alternatively, a Direct Registration System (“DRS”) Advice/Statement representing the number of post Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares they hold following the Share Consolidation. The DRS is an electronic registration system which allows Shareholders to hold Shares in their name in book-based form, as evidenced by a DRS Advice/Statement, rather than a physical share certificate.
If the Share Consolidation is implemented, the Company (or its transfer agent) will mail to each registered Shareholder a letter of transmittal in connection with such consolidation. Each registered Shareholder must complete and sign a letter of transmittal after the Share Consolidation takes effect. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how to surrender to the transfer agent the certificate(s) representing the registered Shareholder’s pre Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares. The transfer agent will send to each registered Shareholder who follows the instructions provided in the letter of transmittal a share certificate representing the number of post-consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares to which the
84

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
registered Shareholder is entitled or, alternatively, a DRS Advice/Statement representing the number of post Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares the registered Shareholder holds following the Share Consolidation.
Until surrendered to the transfer agent, each share certificate representing pre Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of post Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares to which the registered Shareholder is entitled as a result of the Share Consolidation. No delivery of a new share certificate to a Shareholder will be made until the Shareholder surrenders its certificates representing the pre Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares along with the letter of transmittal to the Company’s transfer agent in the manner detailed herein.
Any registered Shareholder whose old certificate(s) have been lost, destroyed or stolen will be entitled to a replacement share certificate only after complying with the requirements that the Company and the transfer agent customarily apply in connection with lost, stolen or destroyed certificates. The method chosen for delivery of share certificates and letters of transmittal to the Company’s transfer agent is the responsibility of the registered Shareholder and neither the transfer agent nor the Company will have any liability in respect of share certificates and/or letters of transmittal which are not actually received by the transfer agent.
REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD NEITHER DESTROY NOR SUBMIT ANY SHARE CERTIFICATE UNTIL HAVING RECEIVED A LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.
Effect on Beneficial Shareholders
Non-registered Shareholders who hold their Shares through Intermediaries and who have questions regarding how the Share Consolidation will be processed should contact their Intermediaries with respect to the Share Consolidation.
No Fractional Shares Will be Issued
No fractional Shares will be issued in connection with the Share Consolidation and no cash will be paid in lieu of fractional post Share Consolidation Shares or Exchangeable Shares. In the event that a Shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional Share upon the occurrence of the Share Consolidation such fractional Share or Exchangeable Share will be deemed to have been tendered by its registered owner to the Company for cancellation for no consideration.
No Dissent Rights
Shareholders are not entitled to exercise any statutory dissent rights with respect to the Share Consolidation.
Accounting Consequences
If the Share Consolidation is implemented, net income or loss per Share and per Exchangeable Share, and other per Share and per Exchangeable Share amounts, will be increased because there will be fewer Shares and Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding. In future financial statements, net income or loss per Share and per Exchangeable Share and other per Share and per Exchangeable Share amounts for periods ending before the Share Consolidation took effect would be recast to give retroactive effect to the Share Consolidation.
TSX Approval
Assuming Shareholder approval is received at the Meeting, and assuming that the Board determines to proceed with the Share Consolidation, the Share Consolidation will be subject to acceptance by the TSX, and confirmation that, on a post Share Consolidation basis, the Company would meet all of the TSX’s continued listing requirements. If the TSX does not accept the Share Consolidation, the Company will not proceed with the Share Consolidation.
Risks Associated with the Share Consolidation
Reducing the number of issued and outstanding Shares and Exchangeable Shares through the Share Consolidation is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per Share market price of the Shares. However,
85

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
the market price of the Shares after the Share Consolidation will also be affected by the Company’s financial and operational results, its financial position, including its liquidity and capital resources, the development of its operations, industry conditions, the market’s perception of the Company’s business and other factors, which are unrelated to the number of Shares and Exchangeable Shares outstanding. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the market price of the Shares will increase following the implementation of the Share Consolidation or that the Company will be, or remain, in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule and avoid a delisting of the Shares from the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or that the market price of the Shares will not decrease in the future and result in noncompliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule. There can also be no assurance that the implementation of the Share Consolidation will, in and of itself, guarantee the continued listing of the Shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or that the Shares will not be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market because the Company fails to meet other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
The market price of the Shares immediately following the implementation of the Share Consolidation is expected to be approximately equal to the market price of the Shares prior to the implementation of such consolidation multiplied by the applicable consolidation ratio but there is no assurance that the anticipated market price immediately following the implementation of the Share Consolidation will be realized or, if realized, will be sustained. There is a risk that the total market capitalization of the Shares (the market price of the Shares multiplied by the number of Shares outstanding) after the implementation the Share Consolidation may be lower than the total market capitalization of the Shares prior to the implementation of the Share Consolidation.
Although the Company believes that establishing a higher market price for the Shares could also enhance the marketability of the Shares by potentially broadening the pool of investors that may consider investing in the Company, including institutional and other investors whose internal investment policies prohibit or discourage them from purchasing shares trading below a certain minimum price and reduce volatility, there is no assurance that implementing the Share Consolidation will achieve either of these results.
If the Share Consolidation is implemented and the market price of the Shares (adjusted to reflect the applicable consolidation ratio) declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Company’s overall market capitalization may be greater than would have occurred if the Share Consolidation had not been implemented. Both the total market capitalization of the Company and the adjusted market price of the Shares following the Share Consolidation may be lower than they were before the Share Consolidation took effect. The reduced number of Shares that would be outstanding after the Share Consolidation is implemented could adversely affect the liquidity of the Shares.
The Share Consolidation may result in some shareholders owning “odd lots” on a post-consolidation basis. Odd lot Shares may be more difficult to sell, or may attract greater transaction costs per Share to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots may be higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots.”

PROPOSAL NO. 4 – ADVANCE NOTICE BY-LAW PROPOSAL
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and if deemed advisable, to pass, with or without variation, the Advance Notice By-Law Resolution (as defined below), the full text of which is set out below, subject to such amendments, variations or additions as may be approved at the Meeting, ratifying and approving the adoption of By-Law No. 2 Advance Notice By-Law (the “Advance Notice By-Law”).
On May 26, 2026, the Board approved the Advance Notice By-Law, which is an amendment to the Company’s current bylaws. The Advance Notice By-Law became effective upon its approval by the Board. However, pursuant to Section 103 of the CBCA, the Board must submit the Advance Notice By-Law to the Shareholders at the Meeting. At the Meeting, Shareholders may, by ordinary resolution, confirm, reject or amend the Advance Notice By-Law. If the Advance Notice By-Law is confirmed or confirmed, as amended, by Shareholders at the Meeting, the Advance Notice By-Law will continue in effect in the form in which it was so confirmed. If the Advance Notice By-Law is rejected by Shareholders at the Meeting, the Advance Notice By-Law will cease to be effective from the date of such rejection, and no subsequent resolution of the Board to make, amend or repeal a by-law of the Company having substantially the same purpose or effect may be effective until it is confirmed by the Shareholders.
The Advance Notice By-Law establishes a formal framework governing how Shareholders may nominate directors for election at annual or special meetings of Shareholders. Its purpose is to ensure an orderly, transparent nomination process by setting clear deadlines and detailed disclosure requirements. Subject to the CBCA, applicable securities laws and the articles of the Company, only individuals nominated in accordance with the Advance Notice By-Law are eligible for election at a meeting of Shareholders. Pursuant to the Advance Notice By-Law, nominations may be made (i) by the Board, (ii) by or at the direction or request of one or more Shareholders pursuant to a proposal made in accordance with the provisions of the CBCA, or a requisition of a Shareholders’ meeting by one or more of the Shareholders made in accordance with the provisions of the CBCA, or (iii) by a Nominating Shareholder (as such term is defined in the Advance Notice By-Law) who meets ownership and procedural requirements contained in the Advance Notice By-Law.
To nominate a nominee for director, a Nominating Shareholder must, among other things, deliver a written notice containing specified information, as prescribed in the Advance Notice By-Law, to the Secretary of the Company as follows:

in the case of an annual meeting of Shareholders, subject to limited exceptions, no later than the 90th day before the first anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting of Shareholders; provided, however, if the date of the annual meeting of Shareholders is advanced more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 30 days after the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of Shareholders, notice by the Shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting of Shareholders or, if later than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting of Shareholders, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting of Shareholders is first made;

notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board at the annual meeting is increased effective after the time period for which nominations would otherwise be due and there is no public announcement by the Company naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a shareholder’s notice required by the Advance Notice By-Law shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships, if it shall be received by not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Company; and

in the case of a special meeting of Shareholders called to elect directors, no later than the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting of Shareholders or the 10th day after the public announcement of the date of such special meeting of Shareholders.
Under the Advance Notice By-Law, adjournments or postponements of an annual or special meeting of Shareholders do not restart or extend the notice periods referred to above.
87

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
A valid notice must include extensive information about both the proposed nominee and the Nominating Shareholder, including, among other things, all the information that would be required to be disclosed in a dissident’s proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to the CBCA, the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any applicable securities laws.
Shareholders must update their notice after the record date for the applicable meeting of Shareholders and again shortly before the meeting of Shareholders to ensure all information remains accurate. The Board retains discretion to waive any requirement of the Advance Notice By-Law.
The provisions contained in the Advance Notice By-Law do not limit the ability of Shareholders to make proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act or as required by the CBCA.
The foregoing description of the Advance Notice By-Law is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Advance Notice By-Law, which is attached hereto as Appendix B and incorporated herein by reference.
The Board believes that the advance notice and other requirements of the Advance Notice By-Law provides a clear process for Shareholders to follow to nominate directors and sets out a reasonable timeframe for the proposal of nominee submissions along with a requirement for accompanying information, allowing the Company and the Shareholders to evaluate the proposed nominees’ qualifications and suitability as a director of the Company.
The text of the Advance Notice By-Law resolution that Shareholders will be asked to pass as an ordinary resolution at the Meeting (the “Advance Notice By-Law Resolution”) is set out below:
“BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

By-Law No. 2 Advance Notice By-Law of Canopy Growth Corporation ( the “Company”), approved by the board of directors of the Company on May 26, 2026 and attached as “Appendix B” to the Company’s Proxy Statement dated August 7, 2026, be, and it hereby is, confirmed, ratified and approved; and

any one director or officer of the Company is hereby authorized and directed, acting for, in the name of and on behalf of the Company, to execute or cause to be executed, under the seal of the Company or otherwise, and to deliver or to cause to be delivered, all such other documents and instruments, and to do or cause to be done all other such acts and things, as in the opinion of such director or officer of the Company may be necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of the foregoing resolutions, such necessity to be conclusively evidenced by the execution and delivery of any such documents or instruments or the taking of any such actions.”
Required Vote
You may select “For,” “Against” or “Abstain” with respect to the Advance Notice By-Law Proposal. The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, will constitute approval of the Advance Notice By-Law Proposal.
THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE ADVANCE NOTICE BY-LAW PROPOSAL. Unless otherwise instructed, the persons designated in the enclosed proxy form intend to vote “FOR” the Advance Notice By-Law Proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 5 – RENEWAL OF OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL
Background
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to consider and if deemed advisable, to pass, with or without variation, the Omnibus Incentive Plan Resolution (as defined below), the full text of which is set out below, subject to such amendments, variations or additions as may be approved at the Meeting, approving the unallocated entitlements under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.
The Omnibus Incentive Plan was approved by the Board on June 20, 2023, and subsequently approved by Shareholders on September 25, 2023 and TSX on October 3, 2023. Pursuant to Section 613 of the TSX Company Manual, unallocated options, rights or other entitlements under a security-based compensation arrangement which does not have a fixed maximum aggregate number of securities issuable, such as the Omnibus Incentive Plan, must be approved by a majority of an issuer’s directors and by an issuer’s shareholders every three years. Shareholders last approved the Omnibus Incentive Plan at the Company’s annual meeting held on September 25, 2023.
As of the date hereof, [•] Shares were issued and outstanding, meaning the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be reserved by the Company for issuance pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan shall not exceed [•] Shares (including Shares reserved for issuance in respect of [•] Prior Awards outstanding under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan). Pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, as of the date hereof, a maximum of [•] Shares are issuable under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, representing [•]% of the issued and outstanding Shares and [•] Shares are issuable under the Prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, representing [•]% of the issued and outstanding Shares. As of the date hereof, [•] Options (representing approximately [•]% of the current issued and outstanding Shares), [•] RSUs (representing approximately [•]% of the current issued and outstanding Shares) and nil DSUs are outstanding. To date, no restricted stock or stock appreciation rights have been issued pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan. As of the date hereof, there are an aggregate of [•] Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards (representing approximately [•]% of the current issued and outstanding Shares) that are currently available for future grants based on the current issued and outstanding Shares.
Accordingly, Shareholders will be asked to vote pass an ordinary resolution (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan Resolution”) substantially in the following form:
“BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
1.
all unallocated options, restricted share units, deferred share units, share-based awards and other entitlements under the Omnibus Incentive plan (the “Plan”) of Canopy Growth Corporation (the “Company”) are hereby authorized and approved;
2.
the Company be and shall have the authority to grant options, restricted share units, deferred share units, share-based awards and other entitlements pursuant to and subject to the terms of the Plan until September 25, 2029, being the date that is three years from the date of the shareholder meeting at which approval is currently being sought, (in accordance with the policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange, if and as applicable to the Company at such a time) unless the Plan is terminated earlier; and
3.
any director or officer of the Company is hereby authorized and directed, acting for in the name of and on behalf of the Company, to execute or cause to be executed, under the seal of the Company or otherwise, and to deliver or cause to be delivered, such other documents and instruments and to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may in the opinion of such director or officer of the Company be necessary or desirable to carry out the intent of the foregoing resolutions, the execution of any such document or the doing of any such other act or thing by any director or officer of the Company being conclusive evidence of such determination.”
To be effective, the Omnibus Incentive Plan Resolution must be passed by a majority of the votes cast by Shareholders who, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy on the Omnibus Incentive Plan Resolution. The outcome of the Omnibus Incentive Plan Resolution will not affect the Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards that have been granted before the date of the Meeting. If approval of the Omnibus Incentive

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Plan Resolution is obtained at the Meeting, the Company will not be required to seek further approval of the grant of unallocated entitlements under the Omnibus Incentive Plan until the Company’s 2029 annual Shareholders’ meeting (provided that such meeting is held on or prior to September 25, 2029). If the Omnibus Incentive Plan Resolution is not passed, the TSX requires that all Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards that had not been allocated as of the date of the Meeting be cancelled and that the Company not grant any further entitlements under the Omnibus Incentive Plan until Shareholder approval is obtained, and that any previously granted Omnibus Incentive Plan Awards which expire, terminate or are settled or cancelled from time to time thereafter, which would otherwise become available for grant under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, will not be available for subsequent grant until Shareholder approval is obtained.
Summary of the Omnibus Incentive Plan
For a summary of the terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, please see “Securities Authorized For Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans – Terms of the Omnibus Incentive Plan” above.
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
The material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the issuance and exercise of Options and other Awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan to U.S. Taxpayers, based on the current provisions of the Revenue Code and regulations, are as follows. Changes to these laws could alter the tax consequences described below. This summary assumes that all Awards granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan to U.S. Taxpayers are exempt from or comply with, the rules under Section 409A of the Revenue Code related to nonqualified deferred compensation.
Incentive Stock Options (ISOs)
Incentive stock options (“ISOs”) are intended to qualify for treatment under Section 422 of the Revenue Code. An ISO does not result in taxable income to the Participant or deduction to us at the time it is granted or exercised, provided that no disposition is made by the Participant of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO within two years after the date of grant of the ISO, nor within one year after the date of issuance of Shares to the Participant (referred to as the “ISO holding period”). However, the difference between the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise and the ISO price will be an item of tax preference includible in “alternative minimum taxable income” of the Participant. Upon disposition of the Shares after the expiration of the ISO holding period, the Participant will generally recognize long term capital gain or loss based on the difference between the disposition proceeds and the ISO price paid for the Shares. If the Shares are disposed of prior to the expiration of the ISO holding period, the Participant generally will recognize taxable compensation, and we will have a corresponding deduction, in the year of the disposition, equal to the excess of the fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise of the ISO over the ISO price. Any additional gain realized on the disposition will normally constitute capital gain. If the amount realized upon such a disqualifying disposition is less than fair market value of the Shares on the date of exercise, the amount of compensation income will be limited to the excess of the amount realized over the Participant’s adjusted basis in the Shares.
Non-Qualified Options
Options otherwise qualifying as ISOs, to the extent the aggregate fair market value of Shares (measured as of the grant date) with respect to which such ISOs are first exercisable by an individual in any calendar year exceeds US$100,000, and Options designated as non-qualified options (“Non-Qualified Options”) will be treated as Options that are not ISOs.
A Non-Qualified Option ordinarily will not result in income to the Participant or deduction to the Company at the time of grant. The Participant will recognize compensation income at the time of exercise of such Non-Qualified Option in an amount equal to the excess of the then value of the Shares over the Non-Qualified Option price per Share. Such compensation income of Participants may be subject to withholding taxes, and a deduction may then be allowable to the Company in an amount equal to the Participant’s compensation income.
90

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
A Participant’s initial basis in Shares so acquired will be the amount paid on exercise of the Non-Qualified Option plus the amount of any corresponding compensation income. Any gain or loss as a result of a subsequent disposition of the Shares so acquired will be capital gain or loss, long term if the shares are held for more than 12 months.
Stock Grants
With respect to stock grants under the Omnibus Incentive Plan that result in the issuance of Shares that are either not restricted as to transferability or not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the Participant must generally recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of Shares received. Thus, deferral of the time of issuance will generally result in the deferral of the time the Participant will be liable for income taxes with respect to such issuance. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the Participant.
With respect to stock grants involving the issuance of Shares that are restricted as to transferability and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, the Participant must generally recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the Shares received at the first time the Shares become transferable or are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier. A Participant may elect to be taxed at the time of receipt of Shares, rather than upon lapse of restrictions on transferability or substantial risk of forfeiture, but if the Participant subsequently forfeits such Shares, the Participant would not be entitled to any tax deduction, including as a capital loss, for the value of the Shares on which he previously paid tax. The Participant must file such election with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of the receipt of the Shares. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the Participant.
Stock Units
The Participant recognizes no income until the issuance of the Shares. At that time, the Participant must generally recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the Shares received. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the Participant.
New Plan Benefits
The amounts of future grants under the Omnibus Incentive Plan are not determinable and will be granted at the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator. The Company cannot determine at this time either the persons who will receive such Awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan or the amount or types of any such Awards.
On August [•], 2026, the closing market price per Share on the Nasdaq Global Select Market was US$[•], and C$[•] on the TSX.
Required Vote
You may select “For,” Against” or “Abstain” with respect to the Renewal of Omnibus Incentive Plan Proposal. The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, will constitute approval of the Renewal of Omnibus Incentive Plan Proposal.
THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE RENEWAL OF OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL. Unless otherwise instructed, the persons designated in the enclosed proxy form intend to vote “FOR” the Renewal of Omnibus Incentive Plan Proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 6 – SAY-ON-PAY PROPOSAL
We believe that our executive compensation program and policies are designed to align the interests of management with the long-term interests of Shareholders. The Company strives to provide clear and concise disclosure regarding its approach to compensation, and to demonstrate how executive compensation is linked to the performance of the Company. Detailed information regarding our executive compensation program and policies, as well as the compensation of our NEOs, is set out above in the section entitled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and “Executive Compensation.” We urge Shareholders to read these sections, including the related narrative and tabular compensation disclosure included in this Proxy Statement.
As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are seeking a vote on an advisory (non-binding) basis to approve the compensation of the NEOs as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives Shareholders the opportunity to endorse or not endorse the Company’s executive compensation program and policies.
At the Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, a resolution in the form set out below, subject to such amendments, variations or additions as may be approved at the Meeting, to approve the Company’s executive compensation program and policies.
The text of the resolution to be submitted to Shareholders at the Meeting is set out below:
BE IT RESOLVED THAT the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and related narrative discussion contained in the proxy statement, dated August 7, 2026, is hereby approved on a non-binding advisory basis.”
Required Vote
You may select “For,” “Against” or “Abstain” with respect to the Say-on-Pay Proposal. The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, will constitute approval of the Say-on-Pay Proposal.
While this advisory vote on the compensation of the NEOs officers is not binding on the Company, the Board or the CGCN Committee, we value the opinions of our Shareholders. Accordingly, the Board and the CGCN Committee will consider the outcome of this advisory vote when considering future compensation policies, procedures and decisions with respect to our NEOs. Canopy Growth expects to have its next “say-on-pay” vote at its 2027 annual meeting of Shareholders.
THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE SAY-ON-PAY PROPOSAL. Unless otherwise instructed, the persons designated in the enclosed proxy form intend to vote “FOR” the Say-on-Pay Proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
PROPOSAL NO. 7 – SAY-ON-FREQUENCY PROPOSAL
In accordance with the Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company must hold an advisory (non-binding) vote on the frequency of presenting “say-on-pay” votes to its Shareholders at least once every six years. This proposal is commonly known as a “say-on-frequency” proposal.
You are being asked to vote, on an advisory basis, whether you would prefer an advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs to occur every one, two or three years. We expect to conduct our next “say-on-frequency” vote in 2032 (and every six years thereafter).
The Board, upon the recommendation of the CGCN Committee, has determined that holding an advisory vote on executive compensation every year is the most appropriate alternative for the Company. While the Company’s executive compensation programs are designed to promote a long-term alignment between pay and performance, our Board recognizes that compensation disclosures are made annually. Holding an annual advisory vote on executive compensation would establish the practice of Shareholders providing the Company with more direct and immediate feedback on such compensation disclosure. Although the “say on frequency” vote is non-binding, the CGCN Committee and the Board take Shareholder input very seriously and will take the outcome of such vote into consideration when making future decisions about executive compensation.
Required Vote
You may select “1 Year”, “2 Years,” “3 Years” or “Abstain” with respect to the Say-on-Frequency Proposal. You are not voting to approve or disapprove the Board’s recommendation on the Say-on-Frequency Proposal. The selection that receives the greatest number of votes cast at the Meeting will be deemed to have received the recommendation of the Shareholders. Shareholder abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the voting on this Say-on-Frequency Proposal.
OUR BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE OPTION
TO HAVE A SAY-ON PAY VOTE EVERY “1 YEAR”.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR THE 2026 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Canopy Growth is subject to both the rules of the SEC under the Exchange Act, and the provisions of the CBCA with respect to Shareholder proposals. As clearly indicated under the CBCA and the rules of the SEC under the Exchange Act, simply submitting a Shareholder proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in the proxy materials.
Shareholders who, in accordance with the SEC’s Rule 14a-8, wish to present proposals for inclusion in the proxy materials to be distributed by us in connection with our 2027 annual general meeting of Shareholders must submit their proposals to the Corporate Secretary of the Company on or before April [12], 2027 (which is 120 calendar days before the anniversary of the date the Notice of Internet Availability was first sent to Shareholders), and must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8. In the event that we hold our 2027 annual general meeting of Shareholders more than 30 days before or after the one-year anniversary date of the Meeting, we will disclose the new deadline by which Shareholders’ proposals must be received by any means reasonably calculated to inform Shareholders. A proposal submitted to the Corporate Secretary should be submitted in writing to Canopy Growth Corporation, 1 Hershey Drive, Smiths Falls, Ontario, K7A 0A8, Attention: Corporate Secretary.
Under the CBCA to be eligible to submit a Shareholder proposal, the Shareholder must hold at least 1% of the outstanding Shares or such number of Shares with a fair market value of at least C$2,000. If the proposal involves the nomination of one or more directors, it must also be signed by one or more Shareholders representing in the aggregate at least 5% of the Shares entitled to vote at the applicable meeting of Shareholders (and, in that case, there is no limit on the number of nominees that may be submitted by proposal). The CBCA explicitly extends the right to submit a Shareholder proposal to non-registered Shareholders.
If the Company receives an eligible proposal, it is required to include it in its proxy materials for the applicable meeting of Shareholders. Under the CBCA, the Company may reject a proposal and exclude it from its proxy circular on the basis of certain specified procedural or substantive grounds, some of which are similar to those under the SEC’s Rule 14a-8. Under the CBCA, the Company is not required to include a proposal in its proxy materials if the proposal is not submitted to the Company 90 - 150 days before the anniversary of the last annual meeting of Shareholders.
Under the CBCA, Shareholders who wish to present proposals for inclusion in the proxy materials to be distributed by the Company in connection with our 2027 annual meeting of Shareholders must submit their proposals between April 28, 2027 and June 27, 2027, which is the 60-day period between 150 and 90 days before the anniversary date of this Meeting.
HOUSEHOLDING OF MEETING MATERIALS
We and some Intermediaries have adopted a procedure called “householding.” Under this procedure, Canopy Growth and some Intermediaries may deliver a single copy of the Notice of Internet Availability and, if you requested printed versions by mail, this Proxy Statement and our 2026 Annual Report to multiple shareholders who share the same address, unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected Shareholders. This procedure reduces the environmental impact of our annual meetings and reduces Canopy Growth’s printing and mailing costs. Once you have received notice from your Intermediary that there will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If you are a non-registered Shareholder and at any time you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate copy of the proxy materials, including our 2026 Annual Report, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy materials and wish to receive only one, please notify your Intermediary. If you are a Registered Shareholder and you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate copy of the proxy materials, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy materials and wish to receive only one, please submit a written request to 1 Hershey Drive, Smiths Falls, Ontario, K7A 0A8, Attention: Investor Relations, by telephone at 1-855-558-9333 or by email request to invest@canopygrowth.com.

Canopy Growth Corporation (the “Company”) has adopted these Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) to assist the Board in its exercise of its responsibilities and to assist the Board in complying with the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”) Listing Rules and other legal requirements. These Guidelines reflect the Board’s judgment as it relates to sound corporate governance practices by which the Board oversees the Company’s business affairs. These Guidelines are not intended to change or interpret any federal or state law or regulation, the certificate of incorporation of the Company (as it may be amended or restated from time to time, the “Charter”) or the bylaws of the Company (as they may be amended from time to time, the “Bylaws”). These Guidelines are subject to change from time to time by the Board in its sole discretion.

BOARD COMPOSITION AND DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS
1.1.
BOARD MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA
Subject to the terms of any shareholders’ agreement that sets forth procedures governing the nomination of directors to the Board or if the Company is otherwise required to provide third parties with the ability to nominate directors, the Corporate Governance, Compensation and Nominating Committee (the “Governance Committee”) is responsible for reviewing the background and qualifications of individuals being considered as director candidates and recommending to the Board director candidates for nomination for annual election or reelection by the shareholders, for any Board vacancies to be filled, or for appointment of additional directors by the Board. The Board will subsequently elect a chairperson of the Board (the “Chairman”) from its members. Among the qualifications considered in the selection of candidates, the Governance Committee will look at the following attributes and criteria of candidates: experience, skills, expertise, diverse personal backgrounds and perspectives, personal and professional integrity, character, business judgment, time availability in light of other commitments, dedication and conflicts of interest. The Governance Committee may, if it deems appropriate, establish procedures to be followed by shareholders in submitting recommendations for Board candidates and the Governance Committee’s policies for consideration of Board candidates recommended by shareholders. At least twenty-five percent of the directors of the Company shall be “resident Canadians” as defined by the Canada Business Corporations Act.
A-1

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
1.2.
POSITION DESCRIPTIONS
The Board will develop clear position descriptions for the Chairman and the Chair of each Committee. The Board, together with the Chief Executive Officer, will develop a clear position description for the Chief Executive Officer (including delineating management responsibilities) and will develop or approve the corporate goals and objectives that the Chief Executive Officer is responsible for meeting.
1.3.
INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS
The Company defines an “independent director” in accordance with the standards and requirements promulgated by all applicable regulatory bodies exercising control over the Company, including Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Subject to the phase-in rules of the Nasdaq and the exemption for “controlled companies” under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Board will be composed of a majority of independent directors, including the Chairman. Where it is not appropriate for the Chairman to be independent, an independent director will be appointed to act as “lead director”. Whether directors are independent will be reviewed annually in connection with the preparation of the Company’s proxy statement. The Governance Committee, as well as the Board, will review commercial and other relationships between directors and the Company to make a determination regarding the independence of each of the directors, but the final independence determination will be made by the Board after due deliberation.
1.4.
DIRECTORS WHO CEASE TO BE INDEPENDENT
An independent director who ceases to qualify as such after election to the Board will be required to tender a resignation as a director promptly to the Governance Committee. The Governance Committee will consider the tendered resignation and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject the resignation, taking into consideration the effect of such change on the interests of the Company.
1.5.
DIRECTORS WHO CHANGE THEIR JOB RESPONSIBILITY
When a director’s principal occupation or business association changes substantially from that which he or she held when originally invited to join the Board (including retirement), he or she will promptly notify the Governance Committee and the Governance Committee will evaluate whether the change in circumstances is consistent with the Board’s original intent for selecting that director and the current guidelines for membership on the Board. Following its evaluation, the Governance Committee will recommend to the entire Board whether to nominate the director for reelection at the next annual meeting of shareholders. While the Board does not believe that a director presenting such changes should necessarily leave the Board, there should be an opportunity for the Board, through the Governance Committee, to review the appropriateness of the director’s reelection to the Board.
1.6.
RESIGNATION, RETIREMENT OR REFUSAL TO STAND FOR REELECTION
In the event that a director intends to resign or retire from, or refuses to stand for reelection to, the Board, he or she must tender written notice of such intent directly to the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer. The Board, taking into account any recommendation of the Governance Committee, shall determine the action, if any, to be taken with respect to such notice.
1.7.
BOARD TENURE
Except as may be provided in the Charter, the Bylaws, and the Mandatory Director Retirement Age Policy, there are no established term limits for service on the Board. Directors shall be elected for the terms provided in the Charter, subject to the Mandatory Retirement Age of 75 that is specified in the Mandatory Director Retirement Age Policy (unless exempted thereunder). The Board may nominate a director for reelection based on the recommendation of the Governance Committee.
1.8.
NOTIFICATION OF ADDITIONAL BOARD SERVICE
Directors will advise the Chairman and the chairperson of the Governance Committee in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on a board of another company with publicly traded equity. Service on boards and committees of other organizations should be consistent with the Code (as defined below). If a member of the Company’s Audit Committee serves on more than two other public company audit committees, the Board
A-2

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
will determine whether such simultaneous service impairs the director’s ability to serve effectively on the Company’s Audit Committee, and the Company must disclose such determination, either on or through the Company’s website or in its annual proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board considers it appropriate to limit the number of public company boards on which directors may serve to no greater than 4 public companies, including the Company/.
2.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS RESPONSIBILITIES
The business affairs of the Company are managed under the direction of the Board. The Board believes that the primary responsibilities of directors are to exercise their business judgment in good faith and to act in what they reasonably believe is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Directors must fulfill their responsibilities consistent with their fiduciary duties to shareholders, in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations and subject to the provisions of the Charter and Bylaws.
In forming his or her judgment, each director is entitled to rely in good faith on the accuracy of the records of the Company and the information, opinions, reports or statements presented by the Company’s officers, employees, Board committees, outside advisers and auditors. In discharging their obligations, directors are entitled to rely on the honesty and integrity of the Company’s senior executives and its outside advisers and auditors.
3.
BOARD MEETINGS AND PROCEDURES
3.1.
MEETING FREQUENCY
The Board will hold at least one regularly scheduled meeting each quarter.
3.2.
CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD
The Chairman will preside over all meetings of the directors, be responsible for the agenda at all meetings of the Board and will preside over meetings of shareholders. The Chairman will convey recommendations of the independent directors to the Board and will be the liaison between the Board and the management of the Company. The Chairman will preview information sent to the Board as necessary and approve meeting schedules to assure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items.
3.3.
AGENDA ITEMS
Each director is free to suggest agenda items to the Chairman and to raise at any meeting topics not on the agenda.
3.4.
ATTENDANCE
All directors are expected to make reasonable best efforts to attend all meetings of the Board, all meetings of the committees of which they are members and the annual meeting of shareholders, and to maintain a satisfactory Board and committee meeting attendance record of no less than 75% in the aggregate, subject to recusal by the Board or relevant committee. Directors are encouraged to attend Board meetings and meetings of committees of which they are members in person but may also attend such meetings by telephone or video conference.
3.5.
MEETING MATERIALS AND PREPARATION
Information and materials important to the Board’s understanding of topics expected to be discussed at meetings should, to the extent practical, be distributed sufficiently in advance to permit prior review. In the event of a meeting on short notice, or if materials would contain highly confidential or sensitive information, it is recognized that written materials might not be available in advance.
Each director should be sufficiently familiar with the business of the Company, including its financial statements and capital structure, the risks and competition it faces, and the regulatory, legislative, business, social and political environments in which the Company operates, in order to facilitate active and effective participation in the deliberations of the Board and of each committee on which he or she serves. Management will make appropriate personnel available to answer any questions a director may have about any aspect of the
A-3

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
Company’s business. Directors should also review the materials provided by management and advisers in advance of the meetings of the Board and its committees and should arrive prepared to discuss the issues presented.
3.6.
SEPARATE SESSIONS OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS
The independent directors will meet at regularly scheduled sessions at least quarterly without the Company’s management present. If an independent director, the Chairman will preside in executive session. If the Chairman is absent or disqualified, the chairperson of the Audit Committee will preside. If the chairperson of the Audit Committee is absent, or not independent, the lead director will preside.
4.
DIRECTOR COMMUNICATIONS
4.1.
DIRECTOR COMMUNICATIONS WITH MANAGEMENT AND OUTSIDE ADVISERS
It is management’s job to formulate, propose and implement strategic choices and the Board’s role to approve and evaluate strategic direction and results. However, the Board and management are better able to perform their responsibilities if there is an ongoing dialogue among the Chief Executive Officer, other senior managers and Board members. To facilitate these discussions, directors will have access to the Company’s senior management team and are encouraged to make regular contact. Board members are normally expected to inform the Chief Executive Officer prior to contacting any member of the Company’s senior management team on any substantive matter. Board members, however, are not expected to inform the Chief Executive Officer that they are contacting members of the Company’s senior management team regarding the normal activities of their Board committees. Board members shall use sound business judgment to ensure that such contact is not distracting.
The Board shall have the right at any time to retain independent outside accounting, financial, legal or other advisers as it deems necessary to fulfill its duties and responsibilities, and the Company shall provide appropriate funding, as determined by the Board or any committee, to compensate such independent outside advisers, as well as to cover the ordinary administrative expenses incurred by the Board and its committees in carrying out their duties.
4.2.
BOARD INTERACTION WITH INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS, ANALYSTS, PRESS AND CUSTOMERS
Generally, management should speak for the Company. Each director should refer all inquiries from institutional investors, analysts, the press, or customers to the Chief Executive Officer or his or her designee.
5.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
It is the Company’s policy to compensate non-management and independent directors competitively relative to comparable companies and to align directors’ interests with the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders. The Governance Committee will recommend annually to the full Board for its consideration the form and amounts of compensation and benefits for non-management directors. In its deliberations, the Governance Committee and the Board shall consider whether the levels of director compensation could impair independence and shall critically evaluate any consulting, charitable contribution, or other potential indirect compensation arrangements. In addition, the Governance Committee and the Board shall seek to ensure that the compensation realistically reflects the responsibilities and risks involved in being an effective director. Directors who are current employees of the Company shall receive no additional compensation for Board service.
6.
DIRECTOR ORIENTATION AND CONTINUING EDUCATION
The Company will provide each new director with an orientation packet to familiarize him or her with, among other things, the Company’s (i) business and strategic plans, (ii) significant financial, accounting and risk management issues, (iii) compliance programs, (iv) Code, (v) Insider Trading Policy, (vi) Guidelines, (vii) principal officers and (viii) independent auditors. Each director is expected to participate in such director orientation.
Each director is expected to be involved in continuing director education on an ongoing basis to enable him or her to better perform his or her duties and to recognize and deal appropriately with issues that
A-4

TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
arise in connection therewith, as set forth in the Board of Directors Continuing Education Policy. The Company will pay all reasonable expenses related to the continuing director education.
7.
CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
The Board must adopt a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) as part of its efforts to promote a culture of integrity and honesty throughout the Company. The Code will apply to the Board itself and the Company’s management and employees. Only the Board may grant any waivers to the Code. If the Board grants a waiver to the Code, the Board will determine if disclosure of the waiver is necessary in accordance with applicable law. Contents of such disclosure will be in compliance with National Policy 58‑201 — Corporate Governance Guidelines and National Instrument 58-101 — Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices – and applicable U.S. securities laws. On occasion, the Board must review and analyze the conduct of the Chief Executive Officer and senior management to satisfy itself that these individuals are complying with the Code and are creating a culture of integrity throughout the Company.
8.
COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD
8.1.
NUMBER, STRUCTURE AND APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEE MEMBERS
The Company’s current committee structure includes the following committees: the Audit Committee and the Governance Committee. All members of these committees shall be independent directors, subject to any applicable phase-in rules of the Nasdaq, unless not all of the members of the Governance Committee are required to be independent in accordance with the exemption for “controlled companies” under the rules of the Nasdaq. All committee members shall be appointed by the Board upon recommendation of the Governance Committee. The Board may, from time to time, establish or maintain additional committees as necessary or appropriate.
8.2.
COMMITTEE CHARTERS
The charters of each standing committee will be reviewed periodically by the Governance Committee with a view to delegating to committees the authority of the Board concerning specified matters appropriate to such committees.
Each committee shall discharge its responsibilities in accordance with its own charter. Each committee charter shall set forth: the purposes, goals and responsibilities of the committee; qualifications for membership on the committee; and committee structure and operations. Each committee charter shall also specify procedures for committee member appointment and removal, as well as require that the committee annually evaluate its performance and report its assessment to the Governance Committee.
8.3.
COMMITTEE MEETINGS
The chairperson of each committee, in consultation with committee members, shall determine the frequency and length of committee meetings unless otherwise provided in the charter for such committee. The chairperson of the committee, in consultation with committee members and appropriate members of management, shall establish the committee’s meeting agenda. Each committee member may recommend items for inclusion on the committee’s meeting agenda.
Management will make appropriate personnel available to attend committee meetings upon the respective committee’s request and, subject to a committee requesting otherwise, the Corporate Secretary, or their designee, shall act as secretary at all committee meetings.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
9.1.
EVALUATION OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
In accordance with the terms of its charter, the Governance Committee will conduct an annual review of the Chief Executive Officer’s performance and report its conclusions to the Board.

SUCCESSION PLANNING
The Company understands the importance of succession planning.

Taking into consideration such report, the entire Board will work with the committee to evaluate potential successors to the Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer should at all times make available his or her recommendations and evaluations of potential successors, along with a review of any development plans recommended for such individuals.
10.
ANNUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF THE BOARD
The Board will conduct an annual self-evaluation to determine whether it and its committees are functioning effectively. The Governance Committee shall be responsible for conducting this evaluation by annually assessing the performance of the Board and its committees and reporting its conclusions to the full Board. In performing its review, the Governance Committee shall solicit and consider the input of all of the directors through an evaluation process in which each director is asked to critically evaluate the performance of the Board and each committee on which he or she serves. At the discretion of the committee, this review may, from time to time, include input from each director on the performance of each other Board member. Candor shall be encouraged by ensuring that evaluations are and remain anonymous. This responsibility is in addition to, and shall be coordinated with, the Governance Committee’s responsibility to annually assess whether the appropriate balance of skills and characteristics are represented on the Board.
