In order to facilitate the closing of Greenrose Acquisition’s proposed mergers with cannabis operators, the SPAC in an 8-K filing said it had secured a PIPE agreement with an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors Global. The investor has agreed to commit to purchase up to 1 million shares on the open market for up to $10.14 per share.
