Certain information included in this document contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
include, among others, statements with respect to the Company’s objectives, goals and strategies to achieve those
objectives and goals, as well as statements with respect to the Company’s beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations,
anticipations, estimates and intentions. The words “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “suspect”, “outlook”,
“believe”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “forecast”, “objective” and “continue” (or the
negative thereof), and words and expressions of similar import, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. By
their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, which
give rise to the possibility that predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be
achieved. Certain material factors or assumptions are applied in making forward-looking statements and actual results
may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. The Company cautions readers not to place
undue reliance on these statements, as a number of important factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s
control, could cause actual results may differ materially from the beliefs, plans, objectives, expectations, anticipations,
estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to,
risks relating to industry, competition, customer, legal, taxation and accounting matters. The foregoing list of factors
that may affect future results is not exhaustive. When reviewing the Company’s forward-looking statements, readers
should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events.

Our product is consistent, organically grown, pesticide free standardized -and the computer-controlled environment reduces cost
We have developed an proprietary,
computer-controlled environmental system
We have custom, scalable growing chambers with proprietary
LED lighting, which we can replicate anywhere in the world.
Our system can replicate the natural environment of any
geographical location for a product that is both superior in
quality and repeatable from batch to batch.
A clean, strictly controlled indoor environment eliminates the
need for pesticide applications. The final product is free of
chemical toxins, to ensure maximum therapeutic benefit.
