Aurora Cannabis Prices US$300 Million Offering of Convertible Senior Notes

Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB) (Frankfurt: 21P; WKN: A1C4WM) today announced that it has priced its previously announced offering of convertible senior notes due 2024. The Company will issue US$300.0 million aggregate principal amount of notes, or US$345.0 millionaggregate principal amount if the initial purchasers' over-allotment option is exercised in full. The notes will be issued at par value.

Aurora expects to use the net proceeds from the offering of the notes to support its Canadian and international expansion initiatives, for future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes, including working capital requirements to continue the Company's accelerated growth.

The notes will be unsecured and will mature on February 28, 2024. The notes will bear cash interest semi-annually at a rate of 5.5% per annum. The initial conversion rate for the notes will be 138.37 common shares per US$1,000 principal amount of notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately US$7.23 per common share. The initial conversion rate represents a premium of approximately 10.0% to yesterday's common share closing sale price on the New York Stock Exchange and is subject to adjustment in certain events.

Upon conversion, the notes will be settled in cash, Aurora common shares or a combination of cash and Aurora common shares, at Aurora's election. Aurora will have the right to redeem the notes in certain circumstances after February 28, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Holders will also have the right to require Aurora to repurchase their notes upon the occurrence of certain customary events at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The offering of notes is expected to close on or about January 24, 2019, subject to customary closing conditions. This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or the common shares of Aurora into which the notes are convertible and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.

The notes and any common shares of Aurora issuable upon conversion of the notes have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws, or qualified for distribution by prospectus in Canada, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements, or sold in Canada absent an exemption from the prospectus requirements of Canadian securities laws.
