EXHIBIT A COMMUNITY BENEFIT AND SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES PLAN Introduction Delta Health, Inc. ("Delta") is pleased to submit this Community Benefit and Sustainable Business Practices Plan ("Plan") to the City of Santa Ana as part of Delta's application for a Regulatory Safety Permit for commercial cannabis distribution activities. The owner and manager of Delta, Jamie Chisick and Jesse Ortega, both Orange County natives, bring years of community involvement and public service to this new enterprise and hope to enhance the lives of Santa Ana residents through their continued service. As the father of three children, Jamie has spent a considerable amount of time, energy and money supporting their pursuits over the past twenty years, including little league, volleyball, and volunteering with the Ronald McDonald House throughout Orange County. Jesse is a veteran of the U.S. Army who served in Iraq and Afghanistan before returning to Southern California to pursue careers in security and the cannabis industry. Jesse regularly volunteers with the local VFW, especially on holidays and national occasions, and tries to spend time helping out at animal shelters whenever possible. II. Community Hiring As part of its commitment to the quality of life of Santa Ana residents and businesses, Delta shall use all reasonable efforts to hire qualified residents of the City of Santa Ana when seeking employees for its commercial cannabis activities, In order to find qualified local residents, we will use a variety of methods to advertise job openings in ways that will enable us to reach our goal of having at least 50% of our employees be residents of the City of Santa Ana. First, Delta is establishing social media accounts on Instagram, Linkedln, Leaflink, and other platforms that it can use to help find employees. When a job opening arises, Delta will announce the opening on social media platforms with a specific notice stating that we would prefer to hire a local candidate. Second, Delta will partner with the Santa Ana WORK Center to target City residents who are interested in finding local employment. In addition to posting jobs directly through the WORK Center/on CalJobs, we will attend local job fairs to try to meet candidates in - person as early in the process as possible so that we can hire local candidates more quickly. Third; Delta will provide employee rosters, copies of job advertisements and social media postings to the City as part of our RSP renewal.
