NATURE OF OPERATIONS Harvest Enterprises Group of Companies (the “Company” or “Harvest”) is a vertically integrated cannabis company that operates from “seed to sale.” The Company has expanded throughout Arizona and into Maryland and Pennsylvania and is actively expanding into Nevada, Massachusetts, California, Ohio, North Dakota, New Jersey, Florida and Arkansas. The Company operates in one segment, the production and sale of cannabis; with three main business areas contributing to that segment. • Cultivation – Harvest grows cannabis in outdoor, indoor and greenhouse facilities. Its expertise in growing enables the company to produce award-winning and proprietary strains in a highly cost-effective manner. Harvest sells its productions in Harvest dispensaries and also to third parties. • Processing – Harvest converts cannabis biomass into formulated oil, using a variety of extraction techniques. The company uses some of this oil to produce consumer products such as vaporizer cartridges and edibles, and it sells the remaining oil to third parties. • Retail dispensaries – Harvest operates award-winning retail dispensaries that sell proprietary and third party cannabis products to patients and customers. Harvest conducts business through wholly-owned operating subsidiaries and operating agreements established to conduct the different segments of each business (each an “Operating Subsidiary” and together, “Operating Subsidiaries”). The Company’s principal operating locations, and type of operation are listed below: Operating Locations City, State Nature of Operations Opened Tempe Tempe, Arizona Retail Dispensary September 2013 Scottsdale Scottsdale, Arizona Retail Dispensary September 2016 Baseline Phoenix, Arizona Retail Dispensary October 2017 Lake Havasu Lake Havasu City, Arizona Retail Dispensary September 2016 Avondale Avondale, Arizona Retail Dispensary August 2017 Tucson Tucson, Arizona Retail Dispensary January 2018 Cottonwood Cottonwood, Arizona Retail Dispensary April 2018 Rockville Rockville, Maryland Retail Dispensary March 2018 Reading Reading, Pennsylvania Retail Dispensary September 2018 Bellemont Production Bellemont, Arizona Processing Lab July 2015 Camp Verde Cultivation Camp Verde, Arizona Greenhouse/Outdoor Grow March 2017 Hancock Cultivation Hancock, Maryland Indoor Grow September 2017 The Company is currently in various stages of expansion as the Company is growing its commercial footprint focusing on building additional retail, cultivation and production locations for medical and adult use cannabis.

In certain States, cannabis licenses are typically divided into three categories: dispensary, cultivation, and production.

Her practice provides comprehensive and affordable care for the metropolitan Columbus area as well as satellite offices in Cleveland and Cincinnati. GreenHarvest.Health About Bridget Williams, MD My clients are physicians and other professionals struggling with stress, identity and the difficulties of being “the only” in workplace situations. They are seeking a better work/life balance and desire to soar with greater personal and professional confidence. It is through self-discovery that habits can be broken, and significant changes can be made. Client and Business Focus My clients are typically physicians and other professionals who feel they could do better at their jobs and their personal lives but tend to be struggling to find clarity regarding what is missing. They describe themselves as “the only” in their workplace or educational environment. Whether they are the only woman, minority, LBGTQ or simply different in thought. They struggle in believing they are good enough and that they earned their credentials on their own intelligence and hard work. My clients realize that the strong confident person they once were is shrinking and becoming less identifiable. I work with these amazing people to help them build awareness of themselves and their environment.

    Implementation of Medical Cannabis in Pennsylvania and Ohio Daniel J. Mallinson1, A. Lee Hannah2, Brad C. Steel2, Lana G. Jones2 1School of Public Affairs, Penn State Harrisburg and 2School of Public and International Affairs, Wright State University [email protected] Since 1996, 33 states and the District of Columbia have adopted medical cannabis programs. Not all programs, however, are the same. This is even the case in states like Pennsylvania and Ohio who adopted medical cannabis in the same year and share many other social, political, and demographic characteristics. The purpose of this research is to compare these two similar cases with dissimilar outcomes. Pennsylvania has moved more quickly to implement medical cannabis, though it is not clear yet which program will be more effective in the long-run. Using implementation theory, we examine how policy design and political environment shape the implementation of medical cannabis in the two states. Motivations Federal Inducements Marijuana is still a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, meaning it • Identify measurable independent and dependent variables for medical cannabis has no recognized medicinal use. However, federal enforcement signals have varied over implementation time. Our previous research found no impact of federal enforcement signals on medical • Compare two cases with substantial political, social, and demographic similarities in order cannabis adoption [2]. to identify specific differences that caused differences in implementation outcomes • Develop a framework for a 33 state study State Actors Implementation Theory Legislatures We rely on the third generation of implementation theory [1] as our framework for understanding medical cannabis implementation.
