ITEM 1.01.  ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

      On June 4, 2018, United Cannabis Corporation (the "Company") issued a
convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $288,750 (the "Note") to
Tangiers Global, LLC, ("Tangiers").

     The Note bears interest at 5% per year and matures on December 4, 2018. The
Company received  $275,000 in net proceeds from the Tangiers after deducting the
$13,750 original issue discount.

     Tangiers is  entitled,  at its option,  at any time,  to convert all or any
part of the  outstanding and unpaid  principal and accrued  interest of the Note
into shares of the  Company's  common  stock.  The number of shares to be issued
upon any conversion will be determined by dividing the amount to be converted by
70% of the  average of the two lowest  trading  prices of the  Company's  common
stock during the 15 consecutive  trading days prior to the date Tangiers  elects
to convert.

     The Company  relied upon the exemption  provided by Section  4(a)(2) of the
Securities  Act of 1933 in connection  with issuance of the Note.  Tangiers is a
sophisticated investor and was provided full information regarding the Company's
business and  operations.  There was no general  solicitation in connection with
the offer or sale of the Note.  Tangiers  acquired the Note for its own account.
The certificate  representing the Note bears a restricted  legend providing that
it cannot be sold except pursuant to an effective  registration  statement or an
exemption from registration.  No commission was paid to any person in connection
with the issuance of the Note.
