9.1 New Jersey retail promissory note

 

On October 3, 2023, GR Unlimited executed a promissory note and advanced $250,000. Pursuant to the promissory note agreement, interest on the outstanding principal borrowed shall accrue at a rate of 12% per annum provided that, if the extended maturity date of the note is triggered, interest shall accrue on the outstanding balance commencing on the maturity date and ending on the extended maturity date of the promissory note. The loan was fully repaid during the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

9.2 First Nile convertible note

 

On January 16, 2024, the Company signed a definitive agreement to invest in the development of an adult-use dispensary in West New York, New Jersey. As part of this agreement, GR Unlimited executed a secured convertible promissory note and initially advanced $500,000 to Nile of NJ LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company. The Company advanced an additional $650,000 to Nile of NJ LLC. Pursuant to the secured convertible promissory note agreement, interest on the outstanding principal borrowed shall accrue at a rate of 10%. Upon Nile of NJ LLC receiving written notification of the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (the “CRC”) approval, the lender has the right and option to convert all or part of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest into subordinate voting shares of the Nile of NJ LLC at a conversion rate equal to 1% of the equity of Nile of NJ LLC on a fully-diluted basis per $33,333 of principal and accrued interest unpaid at date of receipt of the conversion notice such that GR Unlimited shall not own more than 35% of the equity of Nile of NJ LLC (“Conversion Equity”). The secured convertible promissory note has a maturity date of January 16, 2027 subject to an extension to January 16, 2028 if the CRC has not approved the Conversion Equity and an additional extension to January 16, 2029 if the CRC has not approved the Conversion Equity prior to January 16, 2028. The Company received equity investments of $600,000 into Retail Ventures from various parties including $500,000 from related parties to fund this investment. As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the CRC has not approved the Conversion Equity.

 

The Company evaluated the conversion feature under the guidance in ASC 815 and determined that the feature does not qualify as a derivative instrument because CRC approval is required, which precludes net-cash settlement and results in the absence of readily determinable fair value at inception. Additionally, the conversion feature meets the scope exemption for contracts indexed to the Company’s own equity in accordance with ASC 815-40.

As at December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of the convertible promissory note was $1,150,000 (December 31, 2024 - $1,150,000), and the accrued interest was $212,236 (December 31, 2024 - $95,639).

 

9.3 Second Nile note

 

On October 28, 2024, the Company through its subsidiary West New York, advanced an additional $287,500 to Nile of NJ LLC under a note in the amount of $287,500. West New York concurrently received equity subscriptions of $137,500 in support of this funding. Pursuant to the secured convertible promissory note agreement, interest on the outstanding principal borrowed shall accrue at a rate of 10% for the first 12 months and 15% for the remaining 6 months. The note matures April 28, 2026.

 

As at December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of the promissory note was $287,500 (December 31, 2024 - $287,500), and the accrued interest was $34,021 (December 31, 2024 - $4,872).

 

9.4 Third Nile convertible note

 

On November 12, 2025, the Company advanced an additional $250,000 to Nile of NJ LLC. Pursuant to the secured convertible promissory note agreement, interest on the outstanding principal borrowed shall accrue at a rate of 10%. The convertible note matures January 16, 2027. This convertible promissory note agreement contains the same conversion features and extensions as noted in Note 9.2 such that the Conversion Equity shall not exceed 70% of the equity of Nile of NJ LLC on conversion of the two convertible promissory notes. As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, the CRC has not approved the Conversion Equity.

 

The Company evaluated the conversion feature under the guidance in ASC 815 and determined that the feature does not qualify as a derivative instrument because CRC approval is required, which precludes net cash settlement and results in the absence of a readily determinable fair value at inception. Additionally, the conversion feature meets the scope exception for contracts indexed to the Company’s own equity in accordance with ASC 815-40.

 

As at December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of the promissory note was $250,000 (December 31, 2024 - $nil), and the accrued interest was $3,403 (December 31, 2024 - $nil).

 

The Company has determined that expected credit losses for notes receivable as at December 31, 2025 was $nil (December 31, 2024 - $nil).
