On May 15, 2017, we received proceeds of $46,950, net of transaction costs, from an 8% Convertible Redeemable Promissory Note under the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 16, 2016, with Adar Bays, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. The note accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum and matures on December 12, 2017. The outstanding amount due under the note is immediately convertible into restricted shares of CannaSys common stock after 180 days from the issue date, at Adar Bays’ sole discretion, at 50% of the lowest trading price for the common stock for the 25 consecutive prior trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, with some exceptions.

 

The note was issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for transactions not involving any public offering. Adar Bays is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and confirmed the foregoing and acknowledged, in writing, that the securities were acquired and will be held for investment. No underwriter participated in the offer and sale of these securities, and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly in connection therewith.

CannaSys, Inc. Begins Preliminary Marketing for Citizen Toke

Early Indications for Retailer Demand are Strong

Investors Support Management Transition

 

DENVER, May 24, 2017–CannaSys, Inc. (OTC QB: MJTK) (“CannaSys”), a marketing, branding, and technology company, today announced that it has begun its pre-marketing campaign for Citizen Toke, and early indications from retailers are strong.  

 

Late last week, CannaSys received investor financing support, a substantial portion of which was used to fund the development and early marketing of the Citizen Toke product.

 

Patrick Burke, CannaSys current Chief Operating Officer, commented: “The marketplace for cannabis products is becoming increasingly competitive. Marketing tools like Citizen Toke are quickly becoming indispensable for retailers looking to not only expand their customer base, but also to attract and retain new customers.”

 

Citizen Toke offers exclusive, instant, gamified promotions in the cannabis space, powered by SMS. Citizen Toke is the most efficient means for retail centers to communicate exclusive promotions to their consumers and to extend brand awareness to current and potential customers.

 

Additionally, CannaSys continues to move forward with its management transition as Patrick Burke takes an active role in managing its day-to-day operations.

 

“We are pleased with the elevation of Patrick Burke to Chief Executive Officer effective on or around June 1, 2017,” noted Michael Tew, current Chief Executive Officer of CannaSys. “He has already shown great success in working with Beta Killers on Kushmoji and Citizen Toke, and investors, including Kodiak Capital Group, continue to support our strategy.”

 

CannaSys and its board and senior management remain committed to creating long-term shareholder value and will provide timely updates to shareholders as they occur.
