No current FDA - approved drugs to treat smokeless tobacco use and addiction. ▪ There are only 2 smoking cessation FDA - approved drugs – Chantix (Pfizer) and Zyban (GSK) ▪ Until recently, both Chantix and Zyban had “black box warnings” that call attention to serious or life - threatening risks in taking these approved products.

Urgent Unmet Medical Need ▪ Smokeless tobacco is carcinogenic (risk of esophageal, oral and pancreatic cancers). ▪ Smokeless tobacco is one of the most addictive and potent ways of consuming nicotine (an average - size dip in the mouth for just 30 minutes can deliver as much nicotine as smoking three cigarettes). ▪ Smokeless tobacco is strongly addictive (equal to cocaine and heroin). ▪ Smokeless tobacco is an epidemic as recognized by the surgeon general. There are currently NO FDA - approved drugs to support cessation of smokeless tobacco use and addiction. UNMET MEDICAL NEED SYMBOL: CVSI 18

Using patent - pending technology, CV Sciences’ drug candidate (CVSI - 007) combines cannabidiol (CBD) and nicotine to focus on a significant unmet medical need in treating smokeless tobacco use/addiction. NICOTINE CANNABIDIOL + NICOTINE & CANNABIDIOL SYMBOL: CVSI 23

Overview ▪ Physical Dependence relaxant, stimulant, increased heart rate and blood pressure, decreased appetite ▪ Emotional Dependence “oral stimulation” of tobacco product used ▪ Mental Dependence nicotine is a mild “antidepressant” NICOTINE USE & ADDICTION SYMBOL: CVSI 24

NICOTINE PK/PD - ANTIDEPRESSANT SYMBOL: CVSI 25 Nicotine reaches the brain in 7 - 10 seconds Nicotine is a mild antidepressant ▪ Mechanism of Action: monoamine oxidase (“MAO”) inhibitor ▪ MAO is an enzyme that breaks down dopamine and other “feel good” neurotransmitters that produce pleasure and reward ▪ Lower levels of MAO result in higher dopamine levels Nicotine half - life is approximately 1 hour ▪ Nicotine’s PK/PD properties enhance its abuse potential with rapid distribution to the brain, drug levels peaking very quickly, and the acute effects dissipating quickly, requiring continued dosing.

No current FDA - approved drugs (to treat smokeless tobacco use/addiction) OTC Treatments – Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRTs) NRTs are the most widely used pharmacological product in treating nicotine addiction. Replacing cigarettes or smokeless tobacco products with another nicotine - only product, such as an NRT that is available OTC, has shown very high relapse rates. NICOTINE ADDICTION TREATMENT TYPICAL RELAPSE Studies have shown up to 93% of over - the - counter NRT users relapse and return to tobacco use within 6 months. SYMBOL: CVSI 26

Internal PK/PD research on CBD contributed to our patent - pending technology The expanded therapeutic range of combining nicotine and CBD, creates a product that effectively addresses all three nicotine addictions. PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY SYMBOL: CVSI 27
