INTRODUCTION
This Listing Statement is furnished on behalf of the management of the Company in connection with the
organization of the Company under the ABCA as a result of the Amalgamation, the fundamental change
of business of Open Source as more particularly described in this Listing Statement and in accordance
with the rules of the CSE and the substitutional listing of the Common Shares on the CSE under the
symbol “YOLO”.
Capitalized terms used in this Listing Statement which are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings
set forth under the heading “
Glossary of Terms
” of this Listing Statement. Information contained in this
Listing Statement is given as of Sepember 18, 2018 unless otherwise specifically stated. Information
contained in this Listing Statement is presented on a post-Open Source Consolidation and Weekend
Consolidation basis unless otherwise specifically stated.
CAUTION REGARDING COMPANY BUSINESS
The Company operates in the cannabis and cannabis-related industries primarily in the United States and
Canada and has intentions to ultimately expand to other countries. This Listing Statement relates to the
business of an entity that derives or plans to indirectly and/or directly derive a substantial portion of its
revenues through the recreational and/or medical marijuana industry in certain U.S. States and Canada
as permitted under applicable Cannabis Laws.
A majority of States have recently legalized medical marijuana and a number of States have further
legalized the recreational use of marijuana. However, THC and marijuana remain a controlled Schedule 1
drug under U.S. federal laws although the federal government’s position has been not to enforce these
laws in states that have regulations in place. Recent pronouncements by the federal government have
cast uncertainty in this area.
Under the CSA, the policies and regulations of the U.S. federal government and its agencies are that
THC and cannabis has a high potential for abuse, has no acceptable medical benefit and has a lack of
safety for the use of the drug under medical supervision. A range of activities including cultivation and the
personal use of cannabis is prohibited unless and until the U.S. congress amends the CSA with respect
to THC and marijuana. The timing or scope of any such potential amendments are not assured and there
is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current federal law, and the business of the Company may
be deemed to be in violation of federal law of the U.S.
Further, cannabis is not an approved drug or medicine in Canada. The Government of Canada does not
endorse the use of cannabis, but Canadian courts have required reasonable access to a legal course of
Medical Marijuana when authorized by a healthcare practitioner. CBD-Infused Products are currently not
legal for sale in Canada (only the sale of dried marijuana plants for medical use are legal in Canada).
The Canadian federal government has enacted the
Cannabis Act
(Canada) which will introduce a new
system in Canada to legalize, regulate and restrict access to cannabis including Recreational Marijuana
and CBD-Infused Products on October 17, 2018.
There are a number of risks associated with the business of the Company. See section under the heading
entitled “
Risk Factors
” of this Listing Statement for a detailed list of certain material risk factors. Although
the Company will perform its business in accordance with applicable Cannabis Laws, the Company may
become subject to additional government regulation and legal uncertainties that could restrict the demand
for its services or increase its cost of doing business thereby adversely affecting its financial results.
