SECTION 3. SECURITIES AND TRADING MATTERS

ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

On August 20, 2014, Urban Barns Foods Inc. (the “Company”) sold an aggregate of 6,500,000 units to five non-U.S. investors at a price of $0.05 per unit for gross proceeds of $325,000. Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock and one warrant exercisable into one share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $0.075 per share until August 20, 2017.

The Company issued the units in reliance on Regulation S promulgated under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company’s reliance on Regulation S was based on the fact that the units were sold in “offshore transactions” as defined in Regulation S. The Company did not engage in any directed selling efforts in the United States in connection with the sale of the units, and the investors were not U.S. persons and did not acquire the units for the account or benefit of any U.S. person.

The units have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
