IM Cannabis Announces
Closing of US$1.31 Million Registered Direct Offering of Common Shares
VANCOUVER and GLIL YAM, Israel, September 24,
2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IM Cannabis Corp. (“IMCC” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: IMCC), a medical cannabis
company with operations in Israel and Germany, today announced the closing of its previously announced registered direct offering (the
“Offering”), pursuant to which the Company sold and issued 655,000 common shares, no par value per share (the “Common
Shares”), to certain accredited investors at a purchase price of US$2.00 per Common Share, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds
to the Company of US$1.31 million, before deducting offering expenses.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from
the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include evaluating potential additional business opportunities.
The Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s
effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-288346) which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) on July 9, 2025. The Common Shares were offered and sold only by means of a prospectus supplement
and the accompanying base prospectus forming part of the effective registration statement. The prospectus supplement and accompanying
base prospectus relating to the Offering were filed with the SEC and are available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
This press release shall not constitute an offer
to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of such securities
in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification
under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
Related Party Transaction
INVEST-PRO - SHUKAI HON LTD. (“Invest-Pro”),
a company which Eli Zamir, a director of the Company, is also a director of, subscribed for 164,585 Common Shares at a price of US$2.00
per Common Share for an aggregate subscription price of US$329,170 under the Offering. Accordingly, the issuance of Common Shares to Invest-Pro
constituted a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority
Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Absent an available exemption, MI 61-101 would have required
the Company to obtain a formal valuation in respect of, and minority shareholder approval for, the related party transaction before its
completion. However, in completing the Offering, the Company relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder
approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(g) and 5.7(1)(e), respectively, on the basis of financial hardship.
Reliance on those exemptions was based on, among
other things, the determinations by the board of directors of the Company, acting in good faith, and by at least two-thirds of the independent
directors of the Company, acting in good faith, that: (i) the Company was in serious financial difficulty; (ii) the Offering was designed
to improve the financial position of the Company; and (iii) the terms of the Offering were reasonable in the circumstances of the Company.
The circumstances described in section 5.5(f) of MI 61-101 were not applicable. The Company also relied on the minority shareholder approval
exemption on the basis that there was no requirement, corporate or otherwise, to hold a meeting to obtain approval of the holders of any
class of affected securities in connection with the Offering.
The Offering was approved by all directors who
were independent in respect of the Offering for purposes of MI 61-101. Eli Zamir disclosed his interest in the Offering, did not participate
in the independent directors’ consideration of the Offering and abstained from voting on the resolutions approving Invest-Pro’s
participation in the Offering and the Company’s reliance on the exemptions under MI 61-101. No special committee was established
in connection with the Offering.
Further details regarding the Offering and the
related party transaction will be provided in a material change report to be filed by the Company. The Company did not file a material
change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering because the details of Invest-Pro’s
participation were not finalized until shortly before closing of the Offering. The Company determined that the shorter period was reasonable
and necessary in the circumstances, given the Company’s financial condition, liquidity position and debt obligations, and the benefits
of completing the Offering on an expedited basis.
