    CRITERION 2: REQUIRED ATC OPERATIONAL INFORMATION

    Measure 1:See Appendix G

    Measure 2:The attached three year financial projections for an AWC facility in the Central region of thestate demonstrates AWC's financial viability and feasibility on a long-term basis.In accordance with the New Jersey Nonprofit Corporation Act, AWC will not issue capital stockor shares representing equity in the corporation. Initial capital requirements will be sourced viaan entity controlled by S&B Medical Solutions, LLC, a California Limited Liability Companycontrolled by Shawn Sedaghat that will provide debt financing to AWC. As evidenced byAddendum C2M2, Mr. Sedaghat and his affiliates maintain balances sufficient to capitalizeAWC to meet its start-up and working capital requirements. Mr. Sedaghat maintains exclusivecontrol over such unencumbered accounts and Mr. Sedaghat is not a party to any agreementcontaining covenants that could restrict the use of such funds.As reflected in the enclosed projected income statements, an AWC facility in the Central regionof the state is expected to break even in the third year of operation. The financial model is basedon decreasing costs charged to qualifying patients as economies of scale are reached in the firstthree years following implementation of New Jersey's medical marijuana program. As thepatient base increases, the costs charged to patients will decrease. Note that in the first year ofoperation, even before economies of scale are reached, prices will be close to 20% less thantoday's market-based benchmarks throughout the country. Moreover, note that by the third yearof operation, patients' costs will fall to levels more than 30% below today's market-basedbenchmarks.AWC will operate over the long-term on a not-for-profit basis because fees charged to qualifyingpatients will be calculated on a regular basis to cover AWC's overhead costs and operatingexpenses. Because fees charged to qualifying patients will never exceed AWC's costs andoperating expenses, AWC will always operate on a not-for-profit basis. In the event of anunexpected surplus, AWC will take one or all of the following steps: (i) allocate such surplus toNew Jersey non-profit foundations that fund programs for New Jersey residents with debilitatingmedical conditions, (ii) increase funding of research and development programs, andlor (iii) fundnew programs and/or make new resources available to qualifying patients.AWC has incorporated into its financial model the ability to provide medicinal marijuana toqualifying patients that are unable to afford it. AWC will enable participants in any of thefollowing state programs to receive medicinal marijuana at little or no cost: (i) New Jersey'sFarnilyCare, (ii) Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), (iii) General AssistanceThe i nf orm at io n c o nt ai ne d h e re in wa s p re p ar ed i n r es p on s e t o N .

    (GA), and (iv) Supportive Assistance to Individuals and Families (SAIF). AWe will alsoprovide assistance on a case-by-case basis to other indigent qualifying patients that do notparticipate in any of the foregoing programs.Measure 3:Montel Williams: In 1999, Montel announced his diagnosis with MS, a potentially debilitatingautoimmune disease that affects the brain and spinal cord. To raise both awareness and funds forMS research, he created the Montel Williams MS Foundation in October 2000. The goals of theMS Foundation are to provide financial assistance to select organizations and institutionsconducting the most current research AND scientific study ofMS, to raise national awarenessabout MS, and to educate the public, Since its inception, the Foundation, with Montel Williamslending his time and talents to numerous fund-raising initiatives, has distributed more than $1.5million to research entities that are studying MS. Currently, 100% of the public's donations godirectly to funding research to find a cure for MS.The research centers the Foundation has made grants to are: Johns Hopkins, Yale, University ofCalifornia at Irvine, University of California at San Francisco, Kennedy Krieger, NorthwesternUniversity, University of Rochester, Harvard's Brigham and Women's Hospital, AcceleratedCure Project, Research Foundation of SUNY, the Nancy Davis Center Without Walls in theUnited States, and Karolinska Institute and Uppsala University in Sweden. Grantees for 2008include Accelerated Cure Project, Johns Hopkins and SUNY universities and KarolinksaInstitute, which are also previous grantees, as indicated. New awardees are Epivax, thefoundation's first biotech company, University of Medicine &Dentistry NJ-New JerseyMedical School and the University of Virginia.Shawn Sedaghat: Shawn co-founded SEDA Specialty Packaging Corp. in 1985 and startedoperations in the field of manufacturing plastic packaging products, which generated revenues of$ 600,000 in its first year.
