Important Notice Regarding Virtual Meeting

The board of directors of the Company considers the appropriate format for our annual meeting of shareholders on an annual basis. Similar to last year, we have again taken into account the ongoing impact of COVID-19, as well as the high number of flu cases that are circulating communities, each of which has heightened public health and travel concerns for in-person annual meetings. Accordingly, we are pleased to continue to embrace the latest technology to provide expanded access, improved communication and cost savings for our shareholders and the Company by conducting this year's Meeting in a virtual-only format. A virtual-only meeting format will enfranchise and give all shareholders an equal opportunity to participate at the Meeting regardless of their geographic location or their particular circumstance.

Shareholders who attend the Meeting will do so by accessing a live webcast of the Meeting via the internet. Shareholders will be able to access the Meeting using an internet connected device such as a laptop, computer, tablet or mobile phone, and the meeting platform will be supported across browsers and devices that are running the most updated version of the applicable software plugins. Only registered shareholders

(i)

and duly appointed proxyholders (including non-registered (beneficial) shareholders who have appointed themselves as proxyholder) will be entitled to attend, participate and vote at the Meeting, all in real time by visiting https://virtual-meetings.tsxtrust.com/1437, using the password "ogi2023" (case sensitive), however such non-registered shareholders may still attend the Meeting as guests through the live audio webcast at https://virtual-meetings.tsxtrust.com/1437.

Notice-and-Access

In connection with the Meeting this year, in compliance with applicable securities laws and an order of the Director under the Canada Business Corporations Act, the Company has elected to use the notice-and-access delivery model, which allows the Company to furnish the Circular, the accompanying proxy-relatedmaterials, the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2022 and the report of the auditor thereon (the "Financial Statements") and associated management's discussion and analysis (collectively, the "Meeting Materials") to shareholders via the Internet.
