President’s Letter to Shareholders

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

I have recently been appointed to the President position of Chuma, and as a shareholder myself, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your decision to become an investor and for your support to date.

We are focused on developing hard assets in the medical marijuana sector in California. In June 2014, with our initial one million dollars in raised capital, we undertook and completed lending transactions and service contracts which have produced revenues. We anticipate being able to redeploy cash flow and earned funds into additional dispensary and cultivation contracts this quarter. This model has proved to be successful in California, and we look forward to expanding nationwide.

Medical marijuana is a rapidly growing industry in America. As more states legalize medical and recreational marijuana more opportunities for experienced, compliant businesses arise. What has been a clandestine, fringe activity is being brought into a legal, regulated environment. Change creates opportunity and we feel we are uniquely positioned to offer real business solutions and outstanding services and branding to an emerging multibillion dollar industry.

To continue to expand and take advantage of the market opportunities available to us in medical marijuana, we are continuing to work on our Series B private placement for 10 million dollars. We believe our business model will be recognized and valued by the market.

To this end, we were pleased to announce our engagement with Spencer Edwards on Friday 13, 2015. Spencer Edwards is a Denver, Colorado based FINRA Member Retail Broker-Dealer/Investment Banking firm specializing in small and mid-cap equities with an excellent track record in completing financings for cannabis industry participants who surpass their due diligence. Chuma is enthusiastic to have Spencer Edwards in our corner as we set out to meet our 2015 goals.

We are further developing projects and contracts, and look forward to introducing you to key industry players and strategic partners in the coming weeks. We are constantly adding world-class talent to the Chuma team. Specifically, suppliers, partners, and executives that share our mission, our values and our commitment to growth.

In this manner, in November of 2014, Chuma acquired Paul Shively and Associates Inc. (“PSA”), California’s leading corporate compliance and administrative services entity focused upon servicing the legal cannabis industry operating in California. Among other things, Paul Shively and Associates assists legal cannabis industry participants with bookkeeping, tax planning, payroll, human resources, and compliance services. PSA has assisted over 500 cannabis companies over the last seven years. This synergistic acquisition gave Chuma the experience and tools necessary to ensure the Chuma Certification brand delivered premium service and support to Chuma’s clients. Further, Chuma is able to leverage PSA’s large network within the California legal cannabis industry.

In January of 2015, Chuma acquired California Acquisitions Group, Inc. (“CAGI”). The individuals associated with CAGI have over 35 years of experience in the legal cannabis industry. CAGI focuses on providing services to the legal cannabis industry operating in California. Among other things, CAGI assists legal cannabis industry participants with finance, regulatory compliance and human resources. CAGI has its own clients and owns proprietary trade information. Examples include CAGI’s client database, intellectual property, and legal cannabis industry compliance materials. Further, several CAGI executives have joined Chuma’s executive, adding decades of legal cannabis industry experience to our team, and they are introducing Chuma to their longstanding business partners and opening doors to new lines of business.

On behalf of my fellow management team and partners, we believe Chuma’s intrinsic and book value will outperform our industry competitors in the coming years. We remain focused on what we do best, and the management team is firmly committed to growing the Company and delivering value for our customers, employees, partners and shareholders.

I’d like to express my sincere appreciation to all of my fellow shareholders for your commitment to Chuma. Thank you for your continued trust and confidence in our leadership.

Sincerely,

Kevin Wright, President
