Green Rise Completes Short-Form Vertical Amalgamation with Wholly Owned Subsidiaries

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 3, 2023) - Green Rise Foods Inc. (TSXV: GRF) ("Green Rise" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that effective January 1, 2023, it has completed a short form vertical amalgamation with its wholly owned subsidiary, Bull Market Farms Inc. ("Bull Market") and Bull Market's wholly owned subsidiary 2801511 Ontario Inc. ("280"). Pursuant to the amalgamation, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Bull Market and 280 will be cancelled, and the assets, obligations and liabilities of Bull Market and 280 will be assumed by Green Rise. No securities of Green Rise will be issued in connection with the amalgamation, and the share capital of Green Rise will remain unchanged. All three companies are Ontario corporations governed by the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "Act") and the amalgamation will be effected pursuant to Section 177 of the Act.

Bull Market is the main operating entity for the Company within which virtually all Green Rise business operations are carried on. 280 is a shell corporation incorporated for a particular purpose that has no assets or liabilities and no operations. The proposed amalgamation will simplify the corporate structure and reduce administrative costs. It is also expected to permit the amalgamated Company to be eligible for certain governmental programs offered to agricultural companies.

"The simplification of the corporate structure is expected to provide financial savings. Congratulations to our teams as we continue to seek and execute strategies to lower costs and improve operational efficiencies," said Vincent Narang, the Chief Executive Officer of Green Rise.
