"Built with the state's first drive-thru, off of Route 17 and I-80, two of the busiest highways in New Jersey, we expect the Apothecarium Lodi to be a strong contributor to our growth" said Jason Wild, Executive Chairman of TerrAscend. "We are excited to bring The Apothecarium's elevated retail experiences, including the exclusive Cookies Corner shop-in-shop and the widest product assortment in the state, while continuing to build meaningful relationships with the local community."

The 5,000 square-foot dispensary, located at 200 NJ-17, features a spacious showroom and interactive "bud bar", where shoppers can see and smell the product prior to purchase. Patients and consumers can order online or through the Apothecarium app to experience New Jersey's first-ever dispensary drive-thru. The Apothecarium Lodi is located in one of the most populous regions of Northern New Jersey, 14 miles outside of Manhattan and adjacent to the iconic Satin Dolls "Bada Bing" Club, as featured on The Sopranos.

The Apothecarium Lodi joins Maplewood and Phillipsburg in carrying the state's largest assortment of the highly sought after Cookies, Gage and Kind Tree branded products and accessories, including pre-rolls, vapes, concentrates, and syringes - as well as Valhalla soft chewable lozenges, the Company's premium California edibles brand.

In the coming month, all New Jersey Apothecarium dispensaries will capture the unique Cookies retail experience through its "Cookies Corners" concept, which offers branded accessories, flower, pre-rolls, and vapes of proprietary cultivars including Gary Payton, Georgia Pie, Apples and Bananas, The Soap, Doggy Bag, Pancakes, Jealousy, Laughing Gas and more.

To celebrate the opening of the dispensary, the Apothecarium will host a grand opening party on Saturday, August 13th. The company will offer an outdoor market-style event with joint and blunt rolling tutorials, tie-dying stations, games, raffles, giveaways, local food vendors, and donations to local organizations.

The Apothecarium Lodi has the latest operating hours in Northern New Jersey from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, seven days a week.

Caution Regarding Cannabis Operations in the United States

Investors should note that there are significant legal restrictions and regulations that govern the cannabis industry in the United States. Cannabis remains a Schedule I drug under the US Controlled Substances Act, making it illegal under federal law in the United States to, among other things, cultivate, distribute or possess cannabis in the United States. Financial transactions involving proceeds generated by, or intended to promote, cannabis-related business activities in the United States may form the basis for prosecution under applicable US federal money laundering legislation.

While the approach to enforcement of such laws by the federal government in the United States has trended toward non-enforcement against individuals and businesses that comply with medical or adult-use cannabis programs in states where such programs are legal, strict compliance with state laws with respect to cannabis will neither absolve TerrAscend of liability under U.S. federal law, nor will it provide a defense to any federal proceeding which may be brought against TerrAscend. The enforcement of federal laws in the United States is a significant risk to the business of TerrAscend and any proceedings brought against TerrAscend thereunder may adversely affect TerrAscend's operations and financial performance.
