GARDEN GROVE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 30, 2019 / KushCo Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: KSHB) (”KushCo” or the ”Company”), the parent company of innovative industry leaders such as Kush Supply Co., Kush Energy, The Hybrid Creative, and Koleto Innovations, which provide a range of products and services for a variety of industries including the regulated cannabis and CBD industries, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor for a private placement of a senior unsecured note (the ”Note” or the ”Offering”) with an aggregate principal amount of US$21,300,000. The Offering is expected to close on or about April 30, 2019, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Note will be an unsecured senior obligation of the Company. The Note will mature on the 18th month anniversary of the closing date, unless earlier redeemed by the Company. The Note is being issued at an original issue discount and will not bear additional interest (subject to the occurrence of certain events of default).
The Company may redeem the Note in full, at any time, provided that the cash redemption price equals the purchase price for the Note (US$20,000,000 after deduction of the original issue discount) multiplied by a redemption percentage.
We are thrilled to announce this unsecured, non-dilutive financing structure to support our company’s rapid growth.
KushCo’s Chief Executive Officer, Nick Kovacevich
The terms of this note represent a dramatic improvement in our ability to secure financing with a lower cost of capital and is indicative of more attractive financing alternatives within the cannabis industry.

Canaccord Genuity LLC is acting as the sole placement agent in connection with the Offering.
The Note has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
