Explanatory Note

Tribute Pharmaceuticals Canada Inc., an Ontario corporation (the “Company”), is filing this Amendment on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 8, 2014 (the “Original Filing Date”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to file revised versions of Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2 in order to disclose certain information for which confidential treatment had been initially requested and is no longer being sought by the Company. Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2 hereto supersede in their entirety Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2, respectively, as previously filed with the Original Form 8-K. This Amendment continues to speak as of the Original Filing Date, and the Company has not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events that occurred subsequent to the Original Filing Date. Certain changes in Exhibits 2.1 and 2.2 were made in response to comments the Company received from the Commission to the Company’s initial confidential treatment request.

Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information in this Amendment shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date of this Amendment, regardless of any general incorporation language in the filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
