__________________________________________________________________________________
Organigram Holdings Inc. (the “Corporation”) hereby gives the following notice of a change of auditor of the Corporation in accordance with Section 4.11(5) of Part 4 of National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI 51-102”):
On April 16, 2024 KPMG LLP provided the Corporation with notice that it would not stand for reappointment as auditor of the Corporation for the 2025 Fiscal Year. To facilitate the transition to a successor auditor, KPMG notified the Corporation that KPMG is prepared, at the Corporation’s option, to continue to perform an interim review for Q2 and Q3 of 2024, and to perform the year-end Fiscal 2024 audit. KPMG indicated that its notification was a result of its decision to cease providing financial statement audit services to companies in the cannabis industry, regardless of the jurisdiction in which they operate.
KPMG did not seek the Company’s consent to its decision to not stand for re-appointment as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. As a result, neither the Company’s Board of Directors nor the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors participated in KPMG’s decision.
KPMG issued unqualified reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2023 and August 31, 2022. KPMG issued an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2023 and August 31, 2022 due to the existence of material weaknesses.
There have been no “reportable events” (as defined in Section 4.11 of NI 51-102).
The Corporation has requested from KPMG LLP a letter addressed to the securities regulatory authorities of each of the provinces and territories of Canada, stating whether or not they agree with the
above statements. A copy of such letter will be filed on SEDAR+. The Audit Committee has approved this Notice of Change of Auditor.
DATED at the City of Toronto, in the Province of Ontario, this 25th day of April, 2024.
