Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On June 1, 2020, Better Choice Company Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with Bruce Linton (“Mr. Linton”) whereby, among
other things, the Independent Contractor Agreement dated September 17, 2019 (the “Independent Contractor Agreement”) between the two parties was mutually terminated. Pursuant to the terms of the Independent Contractor Agreement, Mr. Linton served
as a special advisor to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, other senior executives of the Company and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) on global cannabis best practices. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the services of Mr.
Linton pursuant to the Independent Contractor Agreement will be discontinued effective as of June 1, 2020. The Termination Agreement includes customary mutual general releases and confidentiality obligations.
In addition, under the Termination Agreement, (i) the initial share purchase warrants dated September 17, 2019 issued to Mr. Linton (the “Tranche 1 Warrants”) entitling Mr.
Linton to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price of $0.10 per share of Common Stock has been amended to reduce the number of Common Stock purchasable thereunder from
1,250,000 to 1,041,666 shares; (ii) the second share purchase warrants dated September 17, 2019 (the “Tranche 2 Warrants”) issued to Mr. Linton entitling Mr. Linton to purchase 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.10 per share of
Common Stock has been terminated and (iii) the share purchase warrants dated September 17, 2019 (the “Tranche 3 Warrants”) issued to Mr. Linton entitling Mr. Linton to purchase 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $10.00 per share of
Common Stock has been terminated.
The Tranche 1 Warrants (as amended) are fully vested and will remain exercisable until September 17, 2029 and may be exercised pursuant to the cashless exercise provisions
thereof. The exercise prices and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Tranche 1 Warrants are subject to certain adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, and fundamental transactions.
Furthermore, if the Company engages in any restricted business line (as defined in the Termination Agreement to include cannabidiol-based products for animals with certain
exceptions), the Company will issue to Mr. Linton additional shares of Common Stock based on formulas intended to compensate Mr. Linton for the original Tranche 1, Tranche 2 and Tranche 3 Warrants that were reduced or terminated pursuant to the
Termination Agreement.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Termination Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Termination Agreement which is attached
hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Tranche 1 Warrants (as amended) is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Tranche 1 Warrants which is attached
hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
