that community service enhances character, and so, we are committed to helping our <br />employees grow into the best version of themselves. <br />Community Support: Local Hiring and Local Business <br />Local Hirino <br />Presently, all owners are Santa Ana residents. When we commence staffing, we will work to <br />hire 50% Santa Ana residents to work in our manufacturing and distribution facility. To <br />achieve this goal, Cannavision will utilize the City of Santa Ana WORK Center, which offers <br />a one -stop solution to enhance our workforce development. Through the WORK Center, we <br />hope to be able to attract and retain employees who live in the City of Santa Ana and the <br />surrounding communities. The WORK Center has immediate access to work -ready <br />candidates to assist with meeting our local recruitment goals. While being cognizant to <br />avoid discriminatory hiring practices, we will do our best to hire Santa Ana residents. This is <br />why working with the City's WORK program is imperative. We will do our best to hire as <br />many Santa Ana residents as possible. <br />We will also work with the City's Veterans Resource Center to provide job opportunities to <br />those who have dedicated their lives to protecting and ensuring our freedom. <br />Finally, to the extent we are able, we will also attempt to aid the Orange County Rescue <br />Mission and Mercy House in hiring individuals who need jobs to support themselves. <br />Local Business Partnerships <br />The Cannavision intends to integrate with the surrounding business community. If we host <br />office lunches, we will order from local small businesses like Poke Hearty around the corner <br />at 3501 W Moore Ave or Wingstop or Blaze Pizza in the other direction at Mac Arthur x <br />Fairviews or Carl's Jr. just down the street at 3325 S Harbor Blvd. For celebrations, we will <br />take a short ride to places like Arc Food & Libations down Harbor at 3321 Hyland Ave. <br />We will also work closely with the distributors, cultivators and retailers in Santa Ana. In fact, <br />we are already in discussions to white label for another Santa Ana cannabis operator <br />looking for ways to make their business more efficient. Additionally, we will be joining the <br />Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce to make even greater and deeper connections with other <br />business owners in Santa Ana as well as the Santa Ana Cannabis Association. To the extent <br />we need goods or services to support our business, we will seek out Santa Ana businesses <br />or with the assistance of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce, who provides referrals to <br />local businesses. <br />Sustainable Business Practices <br />The cannabis industry is built on respect for the plant and for the environment generally and <br />we intend to honor the planet accordingly. While constructing our facility, we were cognizant <br />of our obligations to take care of the environment. To that end, we installed low -flow toilets <br />for enhanced water efficiency and LED lights to reduce energy consumption. <br />10 <br />
