Key aspects of the Agreement include both companies working jointly to identify, develop and conduct medical research on new cannabinoid formulations designed to assist patients with specific conditions such as pain management and anxiety. The Agreement also provides for revenue sharing on any licensing revenues resulting from any newly developed products. The Agreement covers the following key stages.

Identifying opportunities for condition treatments – review of Canabo’s patient observational data to identify conditions and illnesses that show promise for successful replacement of existing therapies.

R&D – chemical, genetic and extraction lab work lead by Terra Life to develop cannabinoid formulations uniquely targeted to specific conditions with feedback and input from the Canabo physician network.

QA/QC production and dosage control – Terra Life will oversee the processing of targeted cannabinoid plants, cannabis oils, active ingredients and manage quality assurance testing and processing into delivery mechanisms, such as softgel capsules, to provide precise dosage control.

Observational data collection – utilizing Canabo’s network of physicians and patients, Canabo will observe patient response and treatment efficacy for both primary conditions and side effects and where appropriate, Canabo physicians will publish the observational data.

Product formulation adjustment – based on observational research data, additional R&D work on cannabis formulation development will be led by Terra Life.

Clinical trial testing – jointly, and including participation from independent physicians and researchers, Canabo and Terra Life intend to conduct double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trials pertaining to each newly developed cannabinoid formulation. It is anticipated all clinical trials will be physician peer-reviewed and published in medical journals.
