“The acquisition of Vital marks an important milestone in our efforts to serve communities that are being impacted by drug and alcohol abuse,” said Mark Conte, CEO of the Company. “With overdose deaths on the rise due to the proliferation of high-potency drugs such as fentanyl, the need for adequate treatment and recovery programs is clear.

As previously announced on October 7, 2020, Vital was formed for the purpose of becoming a provider of Medicare and Medicaid eligible substance abuse treatments and therapies under the brand Vital Behavioral Health™, as well as a provider of sober and transitional living accommodations under the brand Vital Sober Living™.
Vital’s flagship campus is in Frankfort, Kentucky and includes treatment and housing facilities subject to the licencing requirements referenced below. The facilities are fully walkable and within 1,000 feet of a gym, grocery store, hair salon, vape shop, restaurants, municipal golf course, and city park with tennis courts, playgrounds, and a water park. Frankfort, the capitol city of Kentucky, is in Franklin County and is the hub for governmental assistance programs in the state. Client outreach will include the surrounding counties and nearby metropolitan areas of Louisville and Lexington.
The Frankfort campus is operated by Vital’s two wholly owned subsidiaries, VBH Frankfort LLC and VSL Frankfort LLC, both Nevada limited liability companies. VBH Frankfort LLC (d/b/a Vital Behavioral Health of Frankfort) is in the pre-application process to become a licensed nonhospital-based outpatient alcohol and other drug treatment entity and intends to file its application with the State of Kentucky prior to April 1, 2021.
VSL Frankfort LLC (d/b/a Vital Sober Living of Frankfort) currently has identified 30 apartment and townhome style units with an approximate 90-bed capacity and flexible living space configurations.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 16,840,000 shares of its restricted common stock to the Vital shareholders in exchange for 100% of the outstanding common stock of Vital.

Tempco, Inc. Executes Regional Developer Agreement With ESIO Franchising, LLC. Covering Dallas / Fort Worth Area
First of Eleven Optioned Territories Offers Potential for up to 50 Unit Franchises Targeting Population of Over 2.8 Million Households
SCOTTSDALE, AZ, Aug 20, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Tempco, Inc. (OTCBB: TEMO) ("Tempco" or "the Company") today announced that the Company has executed a Regional Developer Agreement ("the Agreement") and three franchise agreements with ESIO Franchising, LLC ("ESIO"). The Agreement covers the Dallas / Fort Worth region of Texas and three franchises therein.
The Dallas / Fort Worth region has a population of over 7.7 million people and over 2.8 million households. Upon the execution of the Regional Developer Agreement, Tempco paid to ESIO $250,000 in cash, including a credit of $70,000 from a payment made earlier in the year on a deposit agreement covering 10 other regions with ESIO.
"We are pleased to announce the execution of our first Regional Developer Agreement, under which Tempco has the exclusive right to operate and/or sell up to 50 Unit Franchises in the Dallas / Fort Worth ("DFW") area," stated Anthony Silverman, the Company's Chief Executive Officer. "We believe the demographics and financial profile of households in the DFW area are ideal for the ESIO hot & cold single-serve beverage system, and we are committed to providing our Unit Franchisees with all the tools necessary to assure outstanding service to consumers and businesses in the region. Wal-Mart's pending retail introduction of ESIO's countertop beverage system, which will complement the existing floor stand system, should greatly increase consumer awareness of the product and the rapidly expanding variety of proprietary and branded hot and cold beverages that can be delivered at the touch of a button. We believe the initial countertop product launch will also attract attention from potential Unit Franchisees in the DFW area."
Tempco expects to purchase, from ESIO Franchising, LLC (the franchising arm of ESIO Beverage Company), up to 10 additional regional territories under option agreements that expire September 1, 2013.

ESIO Countertop Beverage Dispensing System Being Delivered to 2,400 Wal-Mart Stores in Nationwide Retail Launch
Tempco, Inc. to Begin Selling ESIO Franchises in Dallas-Ft. Worth Region in First Half of 2013
SCOTTSDALE, AZ, Oct 22, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Tempco, Inc. (OTCBB: TEMO) ("Tempco" or "the Company"), a Regional Development Franchisee of ESIO Franchising, today provided the following corporate update to its current shareholders and potential investors.
ESIO Beverage System Being Delivered to Wal-Mart Stores
The first hot and cold, ready-to-drink beverage dispensing system made its debut at Wal-Mart beginning October 19, 2012, when Esio Beverage Company introduced its convenient countertop unit along with more than 30 great-tasting branded drink choices, including chilled juice drinks, lemonade, sports drinks and vitamin fitness waters, as well as iced or hot coffees and teas.
Branded beverages will be available in patented MultiServe E-Paks(TM), including Kraft's Country Time Lemonade and Crystal Light varieties featuring Appletini, Peach Tea and Wild Strawberry Energy; Campbell's V8 Splash selections including V8 Splash Berry Blend, Tropical Blend and Mango Peach; Apple & Eve Light Fruit Punch, Apple, Cranberry and Grape juices; Maxwell House Simple Roasts Hazelnut coffee; Diet Brisk Lemon and Raspberry Iced Teas; China Mist teas including Blackberry Jasmine Iced Green Tea and Passionfruit Iced Black Tea; Sqwincher sports drinks featuring Fruit Punch, Grape, Lemon Lime and Orange; and Esio's signature Barista Brothers Premium Coffees and Teas and its Vita-24 Fitness Water. Each MultiServe E-Pak provides approximately 14 eight-ounce servings.
The Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System will be available in nearly 2,400 Wal-Mart stores for $199 and will include two free E-Paks, a $12 value.
The revolutionary drop'ndrink(TM) technology embedded in the Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System allows users to instantly switch from cold lemonade (no ice needed) to freshly-brewed hot coffee, with no taste crossover and the ability to customize the strength of every beverage.
Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System drinks are low in sugar and calories, offering consumers a healthy alternative to traditional sugar-filled, high-calorie beverages.
The magic of the Esio system is its MultiServe technology, allowing the repeated use of its patented MultiServe E-Paks(TM) using chilled or hot water that's always available.
Esio's reusable three-inch-square E-Paks (no refrigeration required) each produce up to 108 ounces of drinks (approximately 14 eight-ounce servings), and the system's exclusive patented Strength Selector(TM) allows consumers to select their exact beverage strength.
What's more, the hassle-free beverage system is family-friendly, with a child safety lock, and is a proven time saver for today's active adults and families, with ice cold and steaming hot drinks available in seconds.
The Esio system, a home and office space saver, is also eco-friendly; each tiny E-Pak eliminates about nine 12-ounce cans or seven 16-ounce bottles that typically take up valuable refrigerator and pantry space before ending up in a landfill. Esio believes the cost savings are significant too, with drinks from the Esio being more affordable than single-serve convenience beverages purchased at the store.
"While Tempco will not derive revenue directly from the sale of beverage systems in Wal-Mart stores, those who buy Esio systems at Wal-Mart will become potential customers of ESIO franchisees, including Tempco, which can provide homeowners and businesses in their franchise territories with the patented MultiServe E-Paks for their Esio Beverage Systems," stated Anthony Silverman, Chief Executive Officer of Tempco, Inc. "In addition to the sale of such consumables, which should generate recurring revenue, ESIO franchisees are authorized to sell countertop and free-standing Esio Beverage Systems directly to consumers and will provide maintenance and repair services to their customers."
Tempco to Launch Franchise Activities in First Half of 2013
Tempco, Inc. executed its first Regional Developer Agreement (the "Agreement") and three franchise agreements with Esio Franchising (the franchising arm of Esio Beverage Company) in mid-August 2012. The Agreement provides Tempco the exclusive right to operate and/or sell up to fifty (50) Esio franchises in the Dallas-Fort Worth ("DFW") metropolitan area, which has a population of over 7.7 million people and more than 2.8 million households.
"We are currently in the process of identifying and securing warehouse and office space in the DFW market," added Silverman. "The first three unit franchises will be operated by Tempco. We expect to be selling additional franchises and serving consumers in the DFW area sometime during the first half of 2013."
"We have retained the services of a highly-experienced industry executive to manage the DFW region," continued Silverman. "Raymond L. Nelson spent 27 years (1977-2004) with DS Waters of America LP (formerly Danone Waters of North America, McKesson Water Products Company and Sparkletts Drinking Water), where he started as a route salesman and worked his way up to Vice President and Director of Field Operations for several U.S. markets. Ray is intimately familiar with selling and operating franchises that serve homes and offices in North Texas, one of the most vibrant economic regions in the U.S. We are confident that his capabilities will allow us to successfully launch and build our franchise operations in the DFW area."
As a Regional Developer, Tempco will receive revenue from several key activities, which include, but are not limited to the following:
-- The sale, lease or rental of countertop and free-standing Esio
beverage dispensing systems;
-- Recurring sales of MultiServe E-Paks(TM) with more than 30
great-tasting branded drink choices;
-- The sale, lease or rental of water filtration systems;
-- Bottled water sales;
-- Equipment service and maintenance; and
-- The sale of cups and other ancillary products.
In addition, Tempco will receive ongoing monthly royalties for each of the Esio franchise operations in its regional territories.
Tempco also holds options to purchase regional franchise development rights in the additional ten (10) areas listed below:
San Antonio, Texas Metropolitan Area Houston, Texas Metropolitan Area State of Arizona State of Colorado Jacksonville, Florida Metropolitan Area San Francisco Bay Area and Eureka, California
Sacramento/Chico, California and Reno, Nevada Orange County, California San Diego and the Imperial Valley, California NW Los Angeles, California (Ventura to San Luis Obispo)
The option period shall expire by September 1, 2013 on all ten of these remaining areas.
