Section 2.07 Nonassignability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this APA, this APA shall not be deemed to constitute an assignment of, or an agreement to assign, any Acquired Asset or any claim, right, or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an assignment or attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party with respect thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or adversely affect the rights of Purchaser thereunder in any material respect. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the other parties to any the Acquired Assets or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to Purchaser as Purchaser may reasonably request in writing, including the Required Consents. Seller shall be responsible for all fees and expenses paid to third parties to obtain such consents.

Section 2.11 Additional Agreement. Nothing in this APA shall prevent Seller from developing, selling, or licensing other SMS marketing platforms with similar design and functionality to third parties in the non-cannabis industries.

Section 2.12 Adjustment for Recapitalization. The Parties acknowledge that on the Closing Date, Purchaser will not have sufficient authorized but unissued shares of CannaSys Stock to issue to Seller under the terms of this APA. Purchaser is in the process of amending its articles of incorporation to recapitalize the company by effecting a reverse-split of the outstanding CannaSys Stock and an increase in its authorized CannaSys Stock. If Purchaser shall subdivide the outstanding shares of CannaSys Stock into a greater number of shares, combine the outstanding shares of CannaSys Stock into a smaller number of shares, or issue by reclassification any of its shares of CannaSys Stock, the number of shares of CannaSys Stock to be issued pursuant to this APA shall be adjusted so that Seller shall be entitled to receive after the occurrence of any of the events described above the number of shares of CannaSys Stock to which it would have been entitled had such shares been issued immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, such adjustment to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date upon which such subdivision, combination, or reclassification, as the case may be, becomes effective.

Seller is duly qualified to transact business in the state of Colorado and in all states and jurisdictions in which the business or ownership of its property makes it necessary so to qualify, except for jurisdictions in which the nature of the property owned or business conducted, when considered in relation to the absence of serious penalties, renders qualification as a foreign corporation unnecessary as a practical matter.

Upon delivery to Purchaser on the Closing Date of the instruments of transfer contemplated by section 5.01, Seller will thereby transfer to Purchaser good and marketable title to the Acquired Assets being conveyed, free and clear of all Liens, except as described in the Seller Disclosure Schedules.

There are no pending or threatened proceedings, litigation, or other adverse claims of which Seller is aware affecting or respecting the Intellectual Property. The Intellectual Property does not infringe on the copyright, patent, trade secret, know-how, or other proprietary right of any other Person and comprises all such rights necessary to permit the operation of the business of Seller as now being conducted.

All federal, state, local, and foreign Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of Seller have been filed with the appropriate governmental agency and all jurisdictions in which such reports are required to be filed and all Taxes that have become due or payable pursuant to such Tax Returns or to any assessment have been paid.

Seller shall use its best efforts to obtain from all third parties any Required Consents in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this APA.
Section 3.09 No Conflict with Other Instruments. The execution of this APA and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this APA will not result in the breach of any term or provision of, or constitute an event of default under, any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other material contract, agreement, or instrument to which Seller is a party or to which any of its properties or operations are subject.
Section 3.10 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Seller has complied with all applicable statutes and regulations of any federal, state, or other governmental entity or agency thereof, except to the extent that noncompliance would not materially and adversely affect the business, operations, properties, assets, or condition of Seller or except to the extent that noncompliance would not result in the incurrence of any material liability for Seller.

Instead, the Parties will rely on the operative facts as documented by them as their basis for such exemptions.
13
Section 8.05 Further Assurances.

(a) Each Party hereby consents to the jurisdiction of all state and federal courts located in Denver, Colorado, as well as to the jurisdiction of all courts to which an appeal may be taken from such courts, for the purpose of injunctive relief in connection with this APA, including any proceeding relating to ancillary measures in aid of arbitration, provisional remedies, and interim relief or any proceeding to enforce any arbitral decision or award.

No information shall be deemed to be "Confidential Information" and subject to this section 9 unless it is clearly marked as being confidential.
D-4
(b) The Receiving Party shall not, without the Disclosing Party's prior written consent, disclose any of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information to any third-party. The Receiving Party shall employ the same standard of care in protecting disclosed Confidential Information as it would employ to protect its own confidential information, but shall in no event use less than reasonable care. The Receiving Party shall disseminate Confidential Information to its personnel and any advisers or contractors ("Representatives") only on a "need-to-know" basis. The Receiving Party shall cause each of its Representatives who have access to Confidential Information to comply with the terms of this section 9 in the same manner as it is bound by this section 9, with the Receiving Party remaining responsible for the actions and disclosures of any Representative.

The confidentiality obligations set forth in this MSA shall expire five years from the date of the relevant Work Statement.
10. Ownership of Intellectual Property (IP) and Work for Hire Deliverables. Unless otherwise specifically stated in a given Work Statement signed by both Parties, all work engagements hereunder are for design and development work to be undertaken as "work made for hire." If and to the extent any portion thereof is determined at any time not to be the result of a work made for hire, Consultant hereby irrevocably transfers and assigns to Company, without additional consideration, all Consultant's right, title, and interest in the work product and developed technology intellectual property rights. Subject to the foregoing:
(a) Consultant shall retain all intellectual property rights in Consultant's preexisting owned proprietary software, systems, data, programs, other intellectual property, and all products, items, or materials (excluding data related to or arising from the Services) developed or acquired by Consultant prior to the effective date of this MSA or developed or acquired by Consultant after such date when such development or acquisition is not created during provision of the Services. Company acknowledges that in carrying out projects for other customers in the future, Consultant may use for itself or others the general knowledge and experience acquired in the course of providing Services to Company.
(b) In providing Services that involve creating intellectual property embodied in deliverables due from Consultant to Company, the Consultant warrants that such intellectual property so developed will be entirely attributable to Consultant's own work for hire performed for Company hereunder and that Consultant will not knowingly infringe in any third-party's intellectual property.
D-5
(c) Company shall retain all intellectual property rights in Company's preexisting owned intellectual property and, except under the limited circumstances described in subsection (d) below, Company shall, subject to the limitations set forth in section 2.11 of the APA, acquire ownership of all intellectual property rights in developed software and related derivatives enhancements, improvements, and modifications created as a result of the Services, including all inventions, improvements, discoveries, concepts, ideas, processes, methods, techniques, and know-how; all patents and patent rights; all trademarks; and all copyright embodied in all Deliverables. "Deliverables" means all data, documents and documentation, information, methods, products, and other materials interpreted, analyzed, workflows, conceived, developed, invented, made, or produced by Consultant, alone or with others, for Company under this MSA. All Deliverables are deemed "works made for hire" as defined in Section 101 of the United States Copyright Act (as amended), and thus all intellectual property rights therein, and in any derivatives thereof, will belong exclusively to Company from inception unless otherwise separately agreed as provided in subsection (d) below respecting a given Work Statement.
(d) Company and Consultant may separately agree in connection with a given Work Statement that certain Deliverables to be developed thereunder will be attributable to a co-development activity wherein each Party is contributing business case data or development resources. In the event the co-development activity is provided for in a given Work Statement, Company and Consultant must set forth in writing which Deliverables thereunder involve co-development activity and what allocations of license or sublicense fees charged to third-parties shall be applicable.
(e) Company shall be the owner from inception of all right, title, and interest in and to all Deliverables that Consultant is engaged to provide as work for hire for Company under a given Work Statement document, but Company's obligation to remit payment for Services in the amounts specified under the relevant Work Statement will be secured by a first-lien security interest and right of possession in the specific Deliverables covered by such Work Statement. Company hereby grants Consultant a first-lien security interest in the Deliverables as collateral under the Uniform Commercial Code until such time as Consultant has been paid the amounts legally due and owing to Consultant under the relevant Statement(s) of Work, at which time the first-lien security interest and right of possession in the specific Deliverables will automatically be released and Company shall own the Deliverables free and clear of any such security interest.
11. General; Miscellaneous.
(a) Governing Law. This MSA shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of Colorado without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether the state of Colorado or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the state of Colorado.
(b) Equitable Remedies for Breach of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Provisions. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the confidentiality covenants or the breach of its obligations relating to ownership or use of intellectual property, the other Party will suffer irreparable damage for which it will have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable remedies in any jurisdiction to prevent or restrain, temporarily or permanently, any such breach or threatened breach, without the necessity of proving inadequacy of a monetary remedy or posting any bond or surety, in addition to any other remedy that the Party may have at law or in equity.

Description of Services, Timeline, and Budget
Timeline & Budget Allocation Overview
The timeline proposed herein is a preliminary assessment of the projected scope of work and necessary deliverables over the course of five months.

This timeline will be both organic and transparent; it will evolve over time as it guides our development, and it will be available to all involved parties to reference and modify as necessary.
