Operational services will be provided by Peak Medical Group under the terms of a share exchange agreement ("SEA") with Canabo. Under the terms of the SEA, Canabo will acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of CieloMed on the earlier of: CieloMed assessing a minimum of 20,000 patients under Canabo's medical marijuana protocols; or six years from the date of the SEA.

Dr. Neil Smith, Executive Chairman of Canabo stated, "This agreement represents a significant accelerant to our previous clinic roll out schedule. Pinnacle has the ability to provide Canabo patient care in up to 20 new locations in 2017." Dr. Smith indicated that the cornerstone of this agreement is a likeminded commitment to the highest standards of patient care, "I have known the operators of Pinnacle Medical Centers for several years now; their physician approach is just like ours, physicians dedicated to providing the highest standard of care. We all believe medical marijuana represent serious medication for real conditions, and that specially trained physicians are in the best position to work with patients' existing treatments."

Shawn Nicol, President of Peak Medical Group added, "We expect to begin offering Canabo treatment protocols in up to 3 or 4 of our clinic locations by January. We expect to expand services to the majority of Peak Medical Group locations during the first half of 2017."
