Tilray urges shareholders to vote today in support of long-term value creation

Tilray, Inc. (“Tilray” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ | TSX: TLRY), a leading global cannabis-lifestyle and consumer packaged goods company, today announced that Glass Lewis, a leading independent provider of proxy research and vote recommendations to the investment community, has joined the other major independent proxy research firm, ISS, in recommending that Tilray shareholders vote “FOR” the Company’s proposals at Tilray’s Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to be held on July 29, 2021.

“We are pleased that the two major independent proxy advisory firms both agree that shareholders should support all of the proposals on the agenda for the upcoming Special Meeting of shareholders,” said Irwin D. Simon, Tilray’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Proposal 1, in particular, is a critical part of our strategy to capture market share and drive profitable growth. Glass Lewis’ endorsement affirms our conviction that Proposal 1 is in the best interest of our shareholders.”

Mr. Simon continued, “By approving all of the proposals on the agenda, our shareholders will be actively participating in Tilray’s ability to capitalize on substantial growth opportunities, expand and generate strong performance, increase shareholder rights and, ultimately, drive shareholder value.”

In determining to recommend FOR Proposal 1, Glass Lewis said, “Given the relatively limited amount of shares available to the Company, we believe that it may be prudent for the Company to have additional common shares available for issuance.”*

Earlier, ISS reached the same conclusion on Proposal 1 and wrote, ““The size of the proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock is reasonable and there are no substantial concerns with the company's past use of shares.”*

Tilray urges shareholders to vote today to support these key initiatives to drive strategic growth and strengthen shareholder rights. Your support is important, no matter how many or how few shares you own.

If you have any questions, or need any assistance in voting your shares, please contact Morrow Sodali LLC at (833) 497-7395 toll-free in the U.S. and Canada, or (203) 658-9400 or by email at TLRY@info.morrowsodali.com.
