(TSXV: GDNP) (OTCQX: GDNPF) (the "Company" or "good natured®"), a North American leader in plant-based products, today announced that it has agreed to purchase the land and buildings located at the Company's Ayr, Ontario manufacturing location ("Ayr"). The purchase, which is scheduled to close on September 30, 2022, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, will be for cash consideration of approximately $9.4 million (the "Ayr Purchase").

The Ayr Purchase includes an existing industrial building of approximately 30,000 square feet in size and 2.9 acres of land that has potential for future expansion.

$6.5 Million Loan with Canadian Chartered Bank
The non-revolving capital loan from a Canadian Chartered Bank features a principal amount of $6.5 million, amortized over a 25-year period with monthly interest and principal repayments. This non-revolving capital loan will bear interest at Canadian Prime plus 1.35% and is secured by the land and buildings at Ayr.

$2.9 Million Second Tranche Draw with BDC
The Company is drawing $2.9 million from the second tranche mortgage financing with BDC, which features a total principal amount of $3.9 million, amortized over a 25-year period with monthly interest and principal repayments.
