Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Hydrozonix shall execute and deliver to the Licensee a Purchase Order for the initial two (2) Units. In order to maintain its Preferential Rights, Hydrozonix and its owners shall not manufacture, sell, purchase from another seller or otherwise commercialize any advanced oxidation system in the Field of Use during the Primary Term and the Renewal Term, such loss of Preferential Rights being the sole consequence of the breach of this covenant.

b. Manufacture Commitment and Acceptance Testing.

First Two Units and Acceptance Testing. The Manufacturer shall initially manufacture two (2) Units in accordance with this Agreement and pursuant to the initial Purchase Order from Hydrozonix. The Manufacturer shall complete the manufacture and deliver the initial two (2) Units to Hydrozonix on or before passage of the first one hundred twenty (120) day period following the execution of this Agreement and confirmation that Hydrozonix has made the Initial Deposit. Such Units shall immediately be tested pursuant to the Acceptance Procedures set forth on Exhibit “E”.

Duringthe manufacturing of the first two (2) Units, the Manufacturer, working collaboratively with the Hydrozonix Project Managers (as defined in Section 6.b), shall develop fromExhibit “E” the Checklist that contains the benchmarks (the “Benchmarks”). The Benchmarks shall be based on specifications provided by various component suppliers and the Manufacturer’s engineering personnel in collaboration with the Hydrozonix Project Managers. With respect to all Units after ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇ ▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ purchased in pairs (unless the parties agree otherwise). Hydrozonix shall accept such Units that meet the Benchmarks applicable to the Manufacturing Location Testing Protocols from the Checklist based on actually accepted tests undertaken at the Manufacturer’s Stuart, Florida location.

ii.

Testing. Within sixty (60) days of the date hereof, Hydrozonix shall identify a Frac Site location to which the first two (2) Units shall be transported and field-tested. If Hydrozonix fails to identify a Frac Site location in that time period, the Licensee and the Manufacturer shall promptly identify a Frac Site location to which the first two (2) Units shall be transported and field-tested for Performance Specifications.

The testing protocols for the Frac Site location on Exhibit “E” are designed to ensure that the Benchmarks have been achieved and that the Units perform in conformity with the Performance Specifications as set forth on Exhibit “A” as measured by laboratory tests of treated water performed under the Licensee’s direction. If the Units perform in conformity with all aspects of the Performance Specifications, including those measured by laboratory tests of water before and after the water is treated by the Units, then Hydrozonix shall promptly issue an Acceptance Certificate as set forth on Exhibit “D” (“Final Acceptance”). As set forth in the Acceptance Procedures, Hydrozonix’s Project Managers shall have the right to closely observe such tests, which tests shall be conducted by the Manufacturer and/or the Licensee with split water samples provided to Hydrozonix for verification. All test data shall be furnished to Hydrozonix and be available for marketing purposes.

Confidential Information has been redacted. The Confidential Information that has been redacted has been filed separately with the Commission.

Transportation of Units to the Frac Site and the Frac Site Testing Protocols shall be performed at Hydrozonix’s expense, except that any additional tests required because of the failure to pass the initial tests shall be performed at the Manufacturer’s expense.

iii.

Failure to Meet Acceptance Testing. If within ████████ of the delivery of the initial two (2) Units to the Frac Site either or both Units fail to perform in accordance with the Performance Specifications, then Hydrozonix shall notify the Manufacturer of such failure to meet the Performance Specifications, and the Manufacturer shall deploy its best efforts to remedy the Unit or Units so that it or they perform in accordance with the Performance Specifications. The Manufacturer shall have ████████ from such notification to complete its work. Once the Manufacturer believes it has remedied the failure, the Manufacturer shall notify Hydrozonix. Hydrozonix shall then have ████████ to verify compliance with the Performance Specifications as measured by laboratory results, although if customer water availability requires an extension of that time period, Hydrozonix shall have additional time to the extent necessary to complete such verification. If the laboratory results indicate a failure to comply with the Performance Specifications, Hydrozonix shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by transmitting written notice to the Manufacturer and the Licensee within ████████ thereafter. In such case, Hydrozonix shall not be obligated to consummate the purchase of any Units hereunder, including said two (2) Units. If Hydrozonix accepts the first two (2) Units, in order to maintain its Preferential Rights, Hydrozonix shall purchase an additional fourteen (14) Units during the Primary Term and continue ordering Units to the extent herein provided during the Renewal Term.

iv.

Additional Purchase Orders Upon First Two Units Meeting the Performance Specifications. Upon successful completion of the entire Acceptance Procedures for the first two (2) Units, Hydrozonix shall issue an Acceptance Certificate for said Units and has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase from the Licensee (and the Licensee shall sell to Hydrozonix) an additional fourteen (14) Units in the Primary Term. Accordingly, at that time, Hydrozonix shall issue Purchase Orders for the next set of two (2) Units (and thereafter as herein provided). The second two (2) Units (i.e., Units 3 and 4) shall be completed and Delivered to Hydrozonix on or before passage of the one hundred twenty (120) day period following Final Acceptance of the first two (2) Units; the third two (2) Units (i.e., Units 5 and 6) shall be completed and Delivered to Hydrozonix on or before passage of the ninety (90) day period from Delivery of the second two (2) Units; and the fourth two (2) Units (i.e., Units 7 and 8) shall be completed and Delivered to Hydrozonix on or before passage of the ninety (90) day period from Delivery of the third two (2) Units, and so forth (in ninety (90) day increments) for subsequent pairs of Units through Units 15 and 16.

For so long as Hydrozonix has Preferential Rights and purchases Units in accordance with the Primary Term Delivery Schedule (during the Primary Term) and the Annual Quota, subject to Section 4.b, and the related delivery schedule (during the Renewal Term), Hydrozonix shall have Preferential Rights during the Primary Term and the Renewal Term, entitling Hydrozonix to the right but not the obligation (except to the extent that Units are already the subject of a Purchase Order) to purchase Units in the amount of its choosing before any other party can obtain them, so long as it tenders Purchase Orders on a timely basis in accordance with the Primary Term Delivery Schedule. If Hydrozonix does not accept delivery of any Unit, fails to pay for any Unit in a timely manner, fails to purchase Units in accordance with the Primary Term Delivery Schedule or the Annual Quota (and related delivery schedule), or otherwise is in default hereunder, it shall lose its Preferential Rights.

3. Term. This Agreement shall be effective from the date first written above and shall apply to (a) the first sixteen (16) Units to be Delivered to Hydrozonix by the Manufacturer during the Primary Term and (b) if applicable, an additional █████ Units per annum (or such other number as the parties may agree) Delivered to Hydrozonix by the Manufacturer during the Renewal Term. After the Primary Term, provided that Hydrozonix has purchased and paid for said sixteen (16) Units, Hydrozonix shall have the option to renew this Agreement for an additional eighteen (18) years (the “Renewal Term”). The Manufacturer acknowledges that its Delivery obligations shall survive expiration or termination of the Agreement until all Units ordered during the Primary Term or the Renewal Term have been Delivered. Hydrozonix agrees that its payment obligations hereunder shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement until all Delivered Units have been paid for in full. Hydrozonix may exercise the option to renew by giving the Manufacturer and the Licensee notice of renewal not later than ████████ prior to the expiration date of the Primary Term. The parties agree that the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall apply for the Renewal Term, in the event that Hydrozonix exercises its option to renew in conformity with this Section 3.

4. Sub-License.

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Licensee hereby grants to Hydrozonix the exclusive right and sub-license under the Patent Rights, Know How and Trademarks to make and have made (but only, in the case of make and have made, to the extent that Section 8.c. allows for such manufacture or third party manufacture and only in accordance with Section 8.c.), use and market the Units Delivered hereunder and (provided the parties agree on the purchase price thereof to be structured similarly to the pricing structure herein) any new high-volume advanced oxidation systems, stationary or mobile, developed by the Manufacturer or the Licensee, and practice related processes and methods thereunder as the exclusive service contractor utilizing the Patent Rights, Know How and Trademarks in the Field of Use during the Primary Term and, if Hydrozonix exercises its option to renew the term under Section 3, the Renewal Term. Hydrozonix may sublicense such rights to an Affiliate that has agreed with the Manufacturer and the Licensee to be bound to the terms of this Agreement and after providing notice thereof to the Licensee, but neither Hydrozonix nor such Affiliate may further directly or indirectly sublicense such rights without the prior written consent of the Manufacturer and the Licensee. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensee and/or the Manufacturer may engage in any business activities (including sublicensing) with respect to Units outside the Field of Use.

b. Loss of Exclusivity. In the event that Hydrozonix purchases at least sixteen (16) Units in the Primary Term and the relevant Annual Quota in the Renewal Term and otherwise remains in material compliance with all of the terms of this Agreement, the exclusive nature of the sub-license shall continue in effect at the time of commencement of the Renewal Term for the first twelve (12) month period thereof. After the Primary Term, so long as Hydrozonix meets an Annual Quota of the purchase and full and timely payment for at least ████ Units pursuant to a delivery schedule to be agreed upon at least ninety (90) days before the beginning of each quarter of the Renewal Term and remains in compliance with all of the terms of this Agreement, the exclusive nature of the sublicense shall continue in effect for each succeeding twelve (12) month period. If Hydrozonix fails to purchase Units in accordance with the Primary Term Delivery Schedule, or to meet an Annual Quota or related delivery schedule, or breaches this Agreement, the sub-license and the exclusive obligation to manufacture for Hydrozonix shall no longer be exclusive, Hydrozonix’s first-priority status under Section 2.b.iv. shall terminate, the royalty rate shall be reduced as and to the extent described in Section 5.e. below and the Preferential Rights shall no longer apply (with the consequence that the parties must seek to agree on the purchase price for any further Units that Hydrozonix desires to purchase hereunder).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the purchase of twenty-four (24) Units, Hydrozonix shall not lose its Preferential Rights so long as it has, as of any point in time, purchased an annual average number of Units equal to or greater than ████ from the beginning of the Primary Term (which shall be deemed to be two (2) years in length for the purpose of this calculation) until such point in time.

After twenty-four (24) Units have been purchased by Hydrozonix, following any termination of the Preferential Rights, the Licensee and the Manufacturer may pursue any other activities with respect to the Units, the Patent Rights, the Know How and the Trademarks free and clear of any restrictions under this Agreement, including the sale of Units, the provision of services using Units, non-exclusive licensing transactions and so forth. During the Renewal Term, in the event that Hydrozonix believes that the █████ Unit Annual Quota is too high or too low in light of market demand, the parties agree to discuss modifying the quota based on market demand, provided, however, neither party shall be obligated to agree to a new quota. The representations and warranties in Section 10 below shall be unaffected by a decrease in the Annual Quota.

Confidential Information has been redacted. The Confidential Information that has been redacted has been filed separately with the Commission.

Further, at any time after Hydrozonix has purchased 24 Units, if Hydrozonix’s Preferential Rights terminate, then for twenty-four (24) months after any such termination neither the Manufacturer nor the Licensee shall sell, lease or rent Units to a third party within the Field of Use, for less than a Unit purchase price of █████ per Unit (the “Comparison Price”), with the Comparison Price adjusted from the date of such termination by utilizing changes in the Producer Price Index (excluding energy prices) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “Comparison Price Restriction”). For purposes of determining whether a rental or lease rate is more favorable than the Comparison Price, the rental rate or lease rate shall be extended over an assumed forty-eight (48) month duration and discounted back to a present value based upon a ten percent (10%) discount rate. The present value calculated must be greater than or equal to the Comparison Price.

Hydrozonix shall have the right to have an independent third party auditor (reasonably acceptable to the Licensee and subject to a confidentiality agreement enforceable by the Licensee and at least as onerous as the confidentiality obligations hereunder) review the Licensee’s books and records for the sole purpose of confirming that the Licensee properly computed the purchase price.

c. Trademark Matters. Any and all uses of any of the Trademarks by Hydrozonix in the Field of Use shall inure solely to the benefit of the Manufacturer. The goods and services on or in connection with which any of the Trademarks are used shall substantially meet or exceed the quality of the corresponding goods and services provided by the Manufacturer and the Licensee prior to the date hereof. Hydrozonix shall provide such specimens of its use of the Trademarks as are reasonably requested by the Manufacturer or the Licensee from time to time. Except for the ▇▇▇▇ “Hydrozonix”, Hydrozonix may not file any application for any registration of a ▇▇▇▇ or for any domain name which consists in whole or in part of any of the Trademarks in its own name or in the name of an Affiliate, and may not and shall not allow any Affiliate to file any application for registration of any ▇▇▇▇ or domain name which includes or is confusingly similar to any of the following terms: Ecosphere, Ecosphere Energy, Ecosphere Energy Services, Ecosphere Technologies, Ecosbrine, EcosFrac and/or Ozonix.

5. Payment.

a. Establishment of the Purchase Price. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for each Unit during the first twelve (12) months of the Primary Term shall be determined and paid as follows:

i.	The Purchase Price for each of the first two (2) Units shall be the sum of the Direct Cost, the Overhead Cost, the Sub-license Fee and the Manufacturing Fee, which combined shall not exceed ███████████████████████████████ payable to the Licensee:

The Direct Cost shall be determined during the manufacturing process (as more fully described below in Section 6) and shall include the Manufacturer’s costs for raw materials, direct manufacturing labor, parts, components, sub-assemblies and other specific items expressly attributable to a Unit which combined shall not exceed ███████████████████████████████, payable from the escrow account as described in subsection iii. below. All transactions between Manufacturer and a related party of Manufacturer or its owners that give rise to costs that are included in Direct Cost or Overhead Cost will be priced at or below fair market value. All rebates, product discounts, gratuities, or other forms of vendor discounts or price considerations provided to the Manufacturer, the Licensee or owners or affiliates thereof that are associated with the manufacturing process for Units shall be applied against the price of Units.

The Overhead Cost shall be the documented costs incurred by the Manufacturer to the extent the same are associated with the procurement and manufacturing processes of a Unit, limited to those Cost Elements shown on Exhibit “J” (the list of which Cost Elements can only be modified by written agreement between Hydrozonix and the Manufacturer), fixed at ████████████████████ per Unit for the first two (2) Units (as well as for the subsequent six (6) Units) and thereafter the actual costs associated with Units purchased by Hydrozonix, payable from the escrow account as described in subsection d. below.

Confidential Information has been redacted. The Confidential Information that has been redacted has been filed separately with the Commission.

C.	The Sub-license Fee shall be ████████████████████ per Unit, payable to the Licensee from the escrow account upon Final Acceptance of the initial two (2) Units and payable to the Licensee directly upon Delivery of Units thereafter.

D.	The Manufacturing Fee shall be ████████████████████ per Unit, payable to the Licensee from the escrow account upon Final Acceptance of the initial two (2) Units and upon Delivery of Units thereafter.

ii.

The Purchase Price for the subsequent six (6) Units after the initial two (2) Units shall be determined and paid in the same manner, with the expectation that the parties will use their best efforts to realize cost savings through manufacturing efficiencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Direct Cost for each such Unit will be determined based on documented material, component and other elements of Direct Cost, and may therefore exceed the limits on the Purchase Price and Direct Cost set forth above in Section 5.a.i.A.

b. Subsequent Primary Term and Renewal Term Purchases. The Purchase Price for each Unit ordered hereunder during the second twelve (12) months of the Primary Term or after the Delivery of eight (8) Units, whichever occurs later, shall be based on an analysis of the Direct Cost and Overhead Cost for the Units in the period theretofore then ended and application of the adjustment mechanisms described in this subsection. The parties again shall use best efforts to realize cost savings through manufacturing efficiencies. By way of example, in the event that during the first twelve (12) month period of the Primary Term the parties are able to obtain less expensive pricing than currently anticipated for raw materials and sub-assemblies resulting in an actual Direct Cost reduction to the Manufacturer of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) per Unit and are able to obtain less expensive pricing than currently anticipated for utilities and small tools and supplies resulting in an actual Overhead Cost reduction to the Manufacturer of twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) per Unit, then the Purchase Price for each Unit during the second twelve (12) month period of the Primary Term shall be not to exceed ███████████████████████████████████. If the parties are able to realize cost savings during the second twelve (12) month period of the Primary Term, then such revised Purchase Price shall be the Purchase Price for the Renewal Term, subject to adjustments for fluctuations in Direct Cost and Overhead Cost. The costs of all components, materials and other constituents of Direct Cost and Overhead Cost shall fluctuate with the Manufacturer’s actual costs thereof from time to time. The Manufacturing Fee and the Sub-license Fee shall be adjusted annually on the anniversary date of this Agreement by utilizing changes in the Producer Price Index (excluding energy prices) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The parties shall reconcile on a semi-annual basis amounts paid versus actual manufacturing costs to determine the deviation from costs in actual component, direct labor, manufacturing overhead (adjusted for other advanced oxidation units built or being built) and actual manufacturing costs, with credits and debits payable upon reconciliation. If Hydrozonix has a need to purchase advanced oxidation systems with less capacity than the Units, Hydrozonix shall pay the Licensee the Manufacturing Fee and Sub-license Fee according to the same ratio as calculated on the initial two (2) Units of (x) the Sub-license Fee and Manufacturing Fee to (y) the Direct Costs; however, for the avoidance of doubt, unless the parties agree otherwise at the time, such systems shall not be considered Units hereunder.

The payment terms for each Unit ordered hereunder after the parties mutually agree to cease using the escrow account shall be as follows:

i.	Upon the Manufacturer commencing the manufacture of a Unit and provided the Manufacturer has advised Hydrozonix of the serial number of that Unit, Hydrozonix shall pay to the Licensee in immediately available funds forty percent (40%) of the estimated purchase price of such Unit.

ii.	Hydrozonix shall pay to the Licensee monthly progress payments based on percentage of completion thereafter until the full purchase price thereof (except the Sub-license Fee and the Manufacturing Fee) has been paid in full.

iii.	Upon Delivery of each such Unit to Hydrozonix, Hydrozonix shall pay in immediately available funds to the Licensee the Sub-license Fee and the Manufacturing Fee for such Unit and if applicable, any remaining balance of the purchase price for such Unit.

c. Escrow Funding.

For the first two (2) Units purchased during the Primary Term, Hydrozonix shall deposit the Initial Deposit in escrow at SunTrust Bank in West Palm Beach, Florida. Thereafter, so long as the Manufacturer is substantially in compliance with the Budget and schedule, Hydrozonix shall deposit into such escrow account an additional ███████████████████████ per Unit every thirty (30) days following submission of the initial request for payment until ██████████████████████████████ in the aggregate per Unit shall have been deposited into escrow. Lastly, Hydrozonix shall deposit into escrow the funds for the Sub-license Fee and the Manufacturing Fee upon the completion of manufacturing and departure of such Units from their manufacturing location destined for a Frac Site. The parties hereto shall enter into an Escrow Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B” in connection with the escrowing of such funds.

ii.

With respect to the next six (6) Units to be Delivered after Final Acceptance of the initial two (2) Units, upon Delivery of a set of two (2) Units (including the first set of two (2) Units) by the Manufacturer to Hydrozonix, Hydrozonix shall deposit in escrow at SunTrust Bank in West Palm Beach, Florida the sum of █████████████████████████ per Unit █████████████████████████████ in the aggregate). Thereafter, every thirty (30) days Hydrozonix shall deposit into such escrow account an additional amount per Unit equal to (I) one-third multiplied by (II) the difference between the Purchase Price for such Unit minus the Manufacturing Fee minus the Sub-license Fee minus █████████████████████████, until the entire Purchase Price (minus the Manufacturing Fee and Sub-license Fee) for each such Unit has been deposited into escrow. With respect to all Units after such six (6) Units, until the parties mutually agree to cease using the escrow account, Hydrozonix shall deposit funds into the escrow account in the same manner as in Section 5.a. above, except that the ██████████████████████████ to be deposited per Unit shall be adjusted proportionately based on the ratio of (x) the Purchase Price of such Unit to (y) █████████████████████████████████. Upon the completion of manufacturing and Delivery of each such Unit, Hydrozonix shall pay to the Licensee the Sub-license Fee and one-third of the Manufacturing Fee and to the Manufacturer (on behalf of the Licensee) two-thirds of the Manufacturing Fee, in each case with respect to each such Unit in immediately available funds.

d. Escrow Disbursement. The parties shall give instructions to the escrow agent under the Escrow Agreement to make disbursements for the initial eight (8) Units in accordance with the following provisions: (a) to vendors designated by and on behalf of the Manufacturer for the following components:

███████
██████████
████████
████
████

in the amounts set forth besides their names on the Vendor Purchase Orders which shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C-2”; such vendors shall acknowledge that the components shall have been paid for by the specific amount received, not subject to any liens except in favor of Hydrozonix and earmarked for a serial-numbered Unit, such acknowledgements to be evidenced by vendor execution of the Vendor Purchase Order; and (b) to the Manufacturer (on behalf of the Licensee) in the amount of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) as an advance for Overhead Cost upon receipt by the escrow agent of an initial request for payment from the Manufacturer, provided that Hydrozonix shall have approved a submitted Budget and a request for payment; and (c) to the Manufacturer (on behalf of the Licensee) in the amount of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) as an advance for Overhead Cost on ███████████████████████████ after disbursement of the initial Overhead Cost advance above for a total of ████████████████████ in Overhead Cost per Unit. The parties shall give further instructions for disbursements to vendors for the above components on behalf of the Manufacturer of the amounts set forth under the headings “30 days”, “60 days” and “90 days” on the Vendor Purchase Order.

For the first two (2) Units manufactured, any balance of the escrowed funds shall not be disbursed until Final Acceptance, indicating full compliance with the Performance Specifications. In connection with such Final Acceptance, the parties shall give instructions to the escrow agent under the Escrow Agreement to disburse to the Licensee the related Sub-license Fee and one-third of the related Manufacturing Fee and to the Manufacturer (on behalf of the Licensee) two-thirds of such Manufacturing Fee. The Escrow Agreement shall remain in place for the purchase of Units subsequent to the initial eight (8) Units until the parties otherwise mutually agree, and disbursements with respect to each Unit shall be made as follows: (a) to vendors for major components in stages as the parties agree, and (b) Overhead Cost and direct labor shall be paid in accordance with a Hydrozonix-approved manufacturing budget, Purchase Order and percentage-of-completion schedule, (c) the Manufacturing Fee and the Sub-license Fee upon Delivery of the Units, (d) any remaining portion of the Purchase Price shall be paid to the Licensee and (e) any remaining amounts in the escrow account attributable to such Unit shall be paid to Hydrozonix. Hydrozonix shall not be responsible for the division between the Manufacturer and the Licensee of the disbursed funds.

Confidential Information has been redacted. The Confidential Information that has been redacted has been filed separately with the Commission.

e. Royalties. In addition to the Sub-license Fee, Hydrozonix shall pay to the Licensee ongoing royalties in the amount of ██████████ of Hydrozonix’s or any Affiliate’s earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) from Hydrozonix’s or any Affiliate’s use of Units. In the event that the Preferential Rights terminate, the royalty rate shall decrease to ███████████ of EBIT upon the expiry (or earlier binding waiver in writing by Hydrozonix) of the Comparison Price Restriction. Hydrozonix shall pay an estimated quarterly royalty amount calculated from quarterly unaudited financial statements. Within twenty five (25) days of the end of each quarter, Hydrozonix shall deliver to the Licensee such quarterly unaudited financial statements, and shall pay any royalties due to the Licensee within five (5) days thereafter. Hydrozonix shall deliver to the Licensee audited annual financial statements within one hundred (100) days after the end of its fiscal year, and after such delivery the parties shall promptly reconcile with each other (and make payments from one to another to the extent necessary to give effect to) any adjustments to the quarterly royalty amounts. For planning purposes, on or before November 1st of each year of the Primary Term or the Renewal Term, Hydrozonix shall provide the Licensee with non-binding projections of EBIT for the coming year.

EBIT shall be calculated in accordance with the principles set forth on attached Exhibit “I” (the “Calculation Principles”) and, to the extent not specified in the Calculation Principles, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), with GAAP to be consistently applied throughout the royalty payment period, except to the extent otherwise required by changes in GAAP or applicable law. All transactions between Hydrozonix and a related party of Hydrozonix or its owners will be priced at or below fair market value; however, it is agreed that general and/or administrative services provided by a related party shall bear no ▇▇▇▇-up and will be at cost. A related party shall be entitled to include a ▇▇▇▇-up on those services that are included in their principal line of business, provided that the cost for such services charged to Hydrozonix shall not exceed the lowest price charged by such related party to unrelated third parties for comparable services. To the extent a transaction is determined to be in excess of such amounts, the portion of the charge determined to be excessive shall be excluded from the EBIT calculation. Hydrozonix shall endeavor to seek the approval of the Licensee prior to entering into a transaction with a related party for purposes of establishing the amount of said transactions. At their own expense, the Manufacturer and the Licensee may also audit the books and records of Hydrozonix.

Purchasers of Units from Hydrozonix shall, in lieu of such an EBIT based royalty, pay the Licensee a royalty per barrel of water treated. Purchasers shall pay royalties to the Licensee in the amount of the greater of █████████████████ per barrel of water treated or the trailing twenty four (24) month average per barrel payment resulting from Hydrozonix’s owned and operated Units. Such parties must also agree on mutually acceptable confidentiality provisions and other provisions to protect the intellectual property of the Manufacturer and the Licensee and in connection with which the Licensee shall grant a sub-license to such Purchasers.

f. Intellectual Property. If Hydrozonix becomes aware of a third party that Hydrozonix believes, based on an infringement analysis from its intellectual property law counsel (the “Analysis”), is infringing the Patent Rights licensed hereunder in the Field of Use, and such infringement is causing economic harm to Hydrozonix, Hydrozonix shall notify the Licensee and the Manufacturer of such third party and communicate such Analysis to the Licensee and the Manufacturer pursuant to a common interest privilege.

The Manufacturer and the Licensee will review such Analysis with their intellectual property counsel to determine the appropriate course of action with respect to such third party to protect the Patent Rights. The Manufacturer and the Licensee shall use their reasonable business judgment to determine the appropriate course of action, which may include written notice of the claim, the filing of litigation, or avoidance of bringing an action that does not meet the evidentiary requirements for filing a legal action against such third party. The business judgment shall be based on the following considerations: the requirement that there be evidence of infringement or misappropriation, the extent of economic harm, an estimate of the attorneys fees and costs for such legal action, and any other reasonable factor.

Prior to the transmittal of any correspondence to the third party or the filing of a legal action, the Manufacturer and the Licensee shall consult with Hydrozonix and its intellectual property counsel pursuant to a common interest privilege to discuss a mutually agreeable plan to protect the parties’ common legal interests through such proceedings or reasons why such legal action should not be filed. Hydrozonix will reasonably cooperate with the Licensee and, if necessary procedurally, agrees to be joined in the lawsuit as a co-plaintiff based on its status as an exclusive licensee, with each party to bear its respective attorneys fees and expenses. The schedule for payment of royalties and fees owed the Manufacturer and the Licensee will remain in effect as pursuant to this Agreement.

i.	Resolution of Dispute. In the event that the parties disagree as to whether or not to proceed with legal action against such third party, then the parties agree as follows:

The parties, through their intellectual property counsel, shall jointly appoint a third party intellectual property attorney to review the evidence provided by the parties, with such third party intellectual property attorney being retained by both parties pursuant to a common interest privilege and a joint representation of all the parties (the “Retained IP Attorney”).

B.	The Retained IP Attorney shall, based on the legal and business considerations set forth above, review such evidence and provide a written confidential recommendation to the Manufacturer, the Licensee, and Hydrozonix.

The parties agree to be bound by the written confidential recommendation of the Retained IP Attorney. If the Retained IP Attorney recommends not filing the legal action, then the Licensee and the Manufacturer shall not be required to file such legal action. If the Retained IP Attorney recommends that the Licensee and the Manufacturer file such legal action, then the Licensee and the Manufacturer shall file such legal action.

The Retained IP Attorney shall have practiced law for at least twenty (20) years, have substantial experience in patent litigation, be admitted to practice before the United States Patent Office, and not have previously represented any of the parties or any of their officers or investors. If the parties cannot agree on the Retained IP Attorney, either party can file a claim pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement to resolve the dispute.

E.	As long as the Licensee and the Manufacturer are proceeding with procedures set forth herein and, if applicable, pursuant to the recommendation of the Retained IP Attorney, then Hydrozonix will not withhold any royalty funds.

In the event that the Manufacturer and the Licensee prevail in the litigation and recover money damages by way of settlement or judgment, the recovered amounts shall be distributed as follows: (a) first, the Manufacturer and the Licensee shall each receive reimbursement of any legal fees and expenses;(b) second, Hydrozonix shall receive reimbursement of any legal fees and expenses; (c) third, Hydrozonix shall receive any additional recovered amounts as compensation for its economic harm; and (d) fourth, the Manufacturer and the Licensee shall retain any remaining amounts.

If (i) the Licensee and the Manufacturer bring a legal action and fail to prevail in a legal proceeding because the asserted claims of the Patent Rights are held to be infringed and invalid, (ii) the Licensee and the Manufacturer have exhausted all appeals from such legal action, and (iii) Hydrozonix has incurred economic harm to its business in the Field of Use because of such third party, then Hydrozonix shall have the right to offset such economic harm against the royalty by decreasing the ongoing EBIT royalty due hereunder by twenty-five percent (25%) until Hydrozonix recovers the economic harm caused by such third party through such decrease in royalty. If the exhaustion of appeals by the Licensee and the Manufacturer from such failure in a legal proceeding in the trial court takes longer than forty-two (42) months after the decision in the trial court and Hydrozonix has incurred economic harm to its business in the Field of Use because of such third party, then twenty-five percent (25%) of the ongoing EBIT royalty (not to exceed the amount of such economic harm) shall be deposited in an escrow account pursuant to a mutually acceptable escrow agreement until such exhaustion of appeals. If, following exhaustion of the appeals from such legal action, the Licensee or the Manufacturer continues to have failed to prevail as provided above, Hydrozonix shall have the right to offset such economic harm first against the remaining funds in the escrow account and thereafter by reducing the royalty to the extent provided above. Any dispute associated with the extent of Hydrozonix’s economic harm will be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions contained in Section 13 hereof.

6. Manufacturing Operations.

a. Purchase Orders. Only after the Manufacturer shall have submitted a proposed Budget and schedule to Hydrozonix which is accepted by Hydrozonix shall a Purchase Order be issued. Purchase Orders shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and be deemed to be accepted by the Manufacturer unless expressly rejected for non-conformance with this Agreement within ten (10) days of receipt by the Manufacturer. In no event shall the Purchase Order modify the terms and conditions herein, and the parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control over any terms and conditions that may be included in the Purchase Order. Prior to the issuance of each Purchase Order, the Manufacturer will assign a serial number to each Unit and promptly advise Hydrozonix in writing of such serial number. The initial Purchase Order for two (2) Units is being delivered by Hydrozonix to the Manufacturer concurrently with the execution of this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.b., if the initial two (2) Units do not meet the Acceptance Procedures, Hydrozonix shall have no obligation to purchase such Units. In the event that Hydrozonix elects to notify the Manufacturer of its intent to reject the initial two (2) Units and terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.b.ii., the Manufacturer and/or the Licensee shall refund all sums paid to it, them or vendors by Hydrozonix, or from the escrow account with respect to the applicable Units being rejected. Such refund must be paid in full within twelve (12) months of the notice of termination. Until the refund shall have been fully repaid, the security interests described in Section 12 below shall remain effective. In the event the full refund shall not have been tendered within twelve (12) months, interest on the unpaid balance shall accrue at the rate of one and one half percent (1.5%) per month beginning at the end of such twelve (12) month period until paid in full, although Hydrozonix at its discretion may at any time after such twelve (12) month period foreclose on its security interests. Upon repayment of such amounts, the Manufacturer and the Licensee shall have no further liability to Hydrozonix. If, however, Hydrozonix does consummate the purchase of the initial two (2) Units, it may proceed to purchase Units as described in Section 2.b.iv.

b. Access. The parties intend to institute transparency into the manufacturing process. Representatives of Hydrozonix shall be granted access to the Manufacturer’s manufacturing premises (at the sole cost, risk and expense of Hydrozonix) whenever same shall be operating and shall be considered and treated as value-added observers of, and sources of constructive suggestions for, the manufacturing process, being provided with related detail and information identical to that created by or provided to the Manufacturer’s employees and contractors to the extent relevant to manufacturing efficiencies and costs (all of which information shall be Confidential Information). Hydrozonix shall designate “Project Managers” to liaise with the Manufacturer’s personnel to ensure that the objectives of this Agreement are achieved, to review and provide input on technical implementation, to observe the work effort, and to review purchasing and costs, including, without limitation, Direct Cost and Overhead Cost. Only the Manufacturer shall have control over and responsibility for the manufacturing process. The Project Managers shall oversee the Manufacturer’s achievement and compliance with the Performance Specifications, approve requests for payment and coordinate execution by an Authorized Representative of Hydrozonix of an Acceptance Certificate for the first two (2) completed Units in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “D” once such Units have successfully completed the Acceptance Procedures.

c. Delivery. The Manufacturer shall deliver, with Hydrozonix bearing the transportation and insurance costs thereof, the first two (2) Units purchased by Hydrozonix to locations in the United States specified by Hydrozonix on a Delivery Instruction in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “F”. Delivery shall occur within four (4) months of a Purchase Order. For each Unit, the Manufacturer shall furnish Hydrozonix with ten (10) copies of the most current version of an Operations and Maintenance Manual including, without limitation, a comprehensive listing of all components with their manufacturers identified and a preventive maintenance protocol including, without limitation, drawings and diagrams sufficient for Hydrozonix to operate, maintain and repair the Units. If prepared, updates to the manuals shall be furnished by the Manufacturer to Hydrozonix on a regular basis, as shall field service bulletins and part changes. After the first two (2) Units, Deliveries (and transfer of the risk of loss) to Hydrozonix shall be FOB the Manufacturer’s facility in Stuart, Florida, with Hydrozonix responsible for transportation and insurance.

d. Training. At the expense of Hydrozonix, the Manufacturer shall provide training courses for employees of Hydrozonix at each location at which Units are delivered. Training courses shall, at a minimum, consist of: theory of operation, diagnostic procedures, adjustment procedures and actual repairs of induced equipment problems. Training shall be designed such that Hydrozonix employees become intimately familiar with the Units, their operation and maintenance and can completely and safely operate and maintain same. A full syllabus of each of the training courses shall be mutually agreed between the Manufacturer and the Project Manager. The parties shall negotiate in good faith the price for such training (Hydrozonix shall pay for all travel and per diem expenses and for training personnel at a set and agreed to rate). Hydrozonix may film, videotape and/or record the training for its training-related internal use in its discretion.

e. Product Warranty. The Manufacturer warrants that for the duration of the Warranty Period the Units (i) shall be free from material defects in assembly and workmanship; (ii) shall conform to the Performance Specifications; and (iii) shall be free from material defects in materials (collectively, the “Limited Warranties”); provided that the warranty with respect to components shall not exceed the warranties provided by the manufacturers thereof. The Manufacturer will ensure that all third party component purchases contain provisions to assign such warranties to Hydrozonix and will use best efforts, when and if required, to enforce said warranties. Where applicable, warranties for major components will begin upon departure of the Units from the Manufacturer’s facility. If requested by Hydrozonix, extended warranties, if available, will be included with the component warranties at Hydrozonix’s expense. These Limited Warranties shall also not extend or apply to defects or nonconformance caused by: (u) catastrophe, fault or negligence of Hydrozonix, its Affiliates or customers, or third parties, (v) failure to operate the Unit in compliance with the Manufacturer’s supplied manuals or use of a Unit in a manner for which it was not designed, (w) modifications of the Unit by Hydrozonix or anyone other than the Manufacturer or its employees, agents and consultants, (x)causes external to the Unit such as, but not limited to, the equipment of other parties, (y) abuse, neglect or lack of preventive maintenance in accordance with prudent industry standards and the Manufacturer supplied manuals, or (z) normal wear and tear. Upon Hydrozonix’s reasonable request, the Manufacturer will facilitate warranty service provided by vendors but shall have no obligation to incur any out-of-pocket costs in connection therewith.

Hydrozonix shall provide the Manufacturer, within thirty (30) days of Delivery of the first Unit purchased hereunder, a preventive maintenance action plan pursuant to which Hydrozonix will maintain all Units purchased to the standard required to maintain the Limited Warranties for such Units. Hydrozonix shall maintain maintenance and repair logs and provide copies thereof to the Manufacturer upon request. The Manufacturer will train and certify certain employees of Hydrozonix to do certain warranty repairs on the Units. In the event Hydrozonix or a customer elects to repair or attempt a repair of any Unit without the use of a Manufacturer trained and certified serviceman or undertake repairs not within the scope of those specifically or generally approved in writing by the Manufacturer, before the expiration of each Unit’s Warranty Period, the Limited Warranty will become null and void and Hydrozonix will assume responsibility for all current and subsequent costs associated with operating, maintaining and repairing such Unit (including the costs of repairing the Unit following the event causing the voiding of the Unit’s Limited Warranty). Any warranties provided directly by the manufacturers of component parts shall inure to the benefit of Hydrozonix, if assignable or transferrable. In the event of any breach of the Limited Warranties during the relevant Warranty Period, the Manufacturer shall, in its discretion, repair or replace the Units subject to the Limited Warranty claim and the Manufacturer shall bear the cost of all parts and labor necessary for such repair or replacement, plus the cost of the Manufacturer’s incidental expenses such as travel, food and lodging incurred in performing on-site Warranty Service. THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE SHALL CONSTITUTE HYDROZONIX’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY BREACH OF THE LIMITED WARRANTIES.

EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY PROVIDED ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 6.e., THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, GRANTED TO HYDROZONIX OR ANY AFFILIATE OR CUSTOMER INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OF NONINFRINGEMENT, AND ANY SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED BY HYDROZONIX.

f. Unimpeded Service Goal. The parties acknowledge that primary objectives of this Agreement are that Hydrozonix, the Manufacturer and the Licensee develop reputations in the oil and gas industry for excellent service and product delivery and that the Units develop a reputation for efficiency and efficacy. Toward that end, in the event that manufacturing or marketing issues arise hereunder, the parties agree to use their best efforts expeditiously to resolve such issues by negotiation and compromise, without third party knowledge thereof to the extent feasible. If the parties cannot resolve the issues in such manner, they shall mediate the issues pursuant to the first sentence of Section 13 below, and shall arbitrate the issues in the event that mediation is unsuccessful, pursuant to the balance of Section 13 below. Furthermore, the Manufacturer shall purchase and maintain in effect at all relevant times sufficient property and casualty insurance to protect against financial loss from casualties to the manufacturing premises and equipment.

g. Existing Business. The Manufacturer and the Licensee have provided predecessor versions of the Units to Southwestern Energy Production Company and its affiliate SEECO Inc. and to WACCAW Development LLC and its affiliate Newfield Exploration Mid-Continent Inc. (collectively, the “Existing Customers”). If the Existing Customers desire additional water treatment units as add-ons, then the Licensee shall include Hydrozonix in negotiations for such Units, and Hydrozonix shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform orders for those Units; provided that the Manufacturer and the Licensee may otherwise continue their business relationship with the Existing Customers, but shall not supply the Existing Customers with additional or replacement advanced oxidation systems or Units except for insured catastrophic loss and with Hydrozonix’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. After the current contracts of such Existing Customers either expire or come up for renewal, the parties may negotiate in good faith toward (i) an assignment of contracts with the Existing Customers (subject to their approval) to Hydrozonix, and (ii) Hydrozonix’s lease or purchase (for a lease amount or a purchase amount to be agreed in such negotiations) of the twenty-five (25) EF600 units, one (1) EF1200 unit and one (1) AORO unit in use by such Existing Customers. The Licensee shall be entitled to royalties pursuant to Section 5.e. for Units provided to Existing Customers.

7. Proprietary Property.

a. Ownership. Hydrozonix acknowledges that each of the Manufacturer and/or the Licensee retains ownership to all patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret rights in and to the intellectual property related to or embodied in the Units, including, without limitation, any improvements to the intellectual property pertinent to the Units based on any suggestions or recommendations made by Hydrozonix or its Affiliates or customers at any time with respect to the Units, including, without limitation, at any time during the manufacture, use, repair or maintenance of the Units. Except for the limited grant of the sub-license, no other rights, whether express or implied, are granted to Hydrozonix. The Manufacturer and the Licensee agree jointly and severally to defend, at their expense, any lawsuits or proceedings with respect to the Patent Rights, Know How and Trademarks brought against either of them, Hydrozonix or a Hydrozonix customer based on a third party claim that the Units infringe any existing United States patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret (each, a “Claim”). The Manufacturer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Hydrozonix and its customers from and against any and all damages, awards, losses, fines, penalties, costs, expenses, obligations and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) resulting from any such Claims, lawsuits or proceedings. If the Manufacturer does not comply with its indemnity obligations in this Section 7.a., Hydrozonix may during the pendency of legal proceedings offset against out-of-pocket expenses it incurs from any such lawsuits or proceedings the amounts it otherwise would pay to the Manufacturer or the Licensee.

The foregoing obligations of defense, indemnity and hold harmless shall not apply to the extent any such Claims are based, in whole or in part, on changes (including without limitation any changes that result from the repair of a Unit), modifications or improvements made to the Units by anyone other than the Manufacturer or its authorized designee (or, to the extent provided in Section 6.e., a Manufacturer-trained and certified serviceman), or if the Units are used in a manner not reasonably contemplated by this Agreement or the Limited Warranties, or if Hydrozonix or its customers fail to install any upgrades timely delivered to Hydrozonix that would have corrected the infringement. In the event that Hydrozonix or any of its customers is enjoined from using the Units as a result of or in connection with a Claim, the Manufacturer with respect to the manufacturing of the Units and the Licensee with respect to the Patent Rights, Know How and Trademarks shall promptly, at its respective sole expense (i) modify the Units so that they become non-infringing without affecting their performance, (ii) procure for Hydrozonix the right to continue to use the Units, or (iii) promptly replace the Units with units that are non-infringing. In the event that the Manufacturer and the Licensee, as applicable, cannot, after using best efforts promptly to modify, procure or replace the Units, the Manufacturer or the Licensee, as applicable, shall take back the affected Units and refund to Hydrozonix its respective portion of amounts paid by Hydrozonix of the affected Units as Hydrozonix’s sole and exclusive remedy.

Hydrozonix shall provide written notice to the Manufacturer and the Licensee of a Claim within ten (10) working days after such Claim is asserted in writing or by legal action against Hydrozonix. The Manufacturer or the Licensee, as applicable, shall have control of the defense, and settlement of such Claim, demand or cause of action, except that the Manufacturer or the Licensee shall not enter into any agreement, agreed order, consent judgment, or the like which is binding on Hydrozonix without Hydrozonix’s prior written consent. The Manufacturer or the Licensee, as applicable, can settle the Claim without the consent of Hydrozonix so long as a full and unconditional release is provided to Hydrozonix and no agreed order, consent judgment or the like is entered to the prejudice of Hydrozonix. Notwithstanding the election of the Manufacturer or the Licensee to assume the defense and investigation of such Claim, Hydrozonix shall have the right to employ separate counsel and participate in the defense and investigation of such Claim at its sole cost.

b. Confidential Information. Hydrozonix acknowledges that Confidential Information is vital to the business of the Manufacturer and the Licensee and thus Hydrozonix agrees that Confidential Information shall be kept confidential and not used for any purpose except pursuant to this Agreement. “Confidential Information” means the Know How, Patent Rights (to the extent confidential), and all other information, including engineering, programming and other technical and commercial information and know how, directly or indirectly provided under or in connection with this Agreement by the Manufacturer or the Licensee to Hydrozonix or its Affiliates, including any such information that is embodied in the Units. The restrictions on Confidential Information shall not apply to an item of information:

i.	that is in the public domain as shown by documentary evidence,

ii.	already known by Hydrozonix at the time it is disclosed to Hydrozonix as shown by documentary evidence in Hydrozonix’s possession dated prior to such disclosure, or

iii.	subsequently received by Hydrozonix in good faith and lawfully from a non-party to this Agreement that has no obligation of confidence with respect to such information.

Hydrozonix shall maintain in strict confidence and not disclose or otherwise provide to any third party other than its employees, officers, consultants, independent contractors, and legal advisors as needed (provided that Hydrozonix subjects them to the same confidentiality obligation in favor of the Manufacturer and the Licensee as is applicable to Hydrozonix) for the purposes contemplated herein, and shall not use any item of Confidential Information for any purpose other than to exploit the Units Delivered hereunder. Hydrozonix shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its employees, consultants, independent contractors, agents, advisors, Affiliates and customers. Hydrozonix may use such portion of the Confidential Information as the parties may agree for the marketing of Units to customers and the marketing and sale of Hydrozonix to, in each case, a bona fide potential customer or purchaser only for the purpose of evaluating a potential transaction, and only to the extent necessary, so long as any such potential customer or purchaser expressly agrees to confidentiality obligations with respect to the Confidential Information at least as onerous as those agreed to by the parties hereunder and enforceable by the Manufacturer and the Licensee. Further, Hydrozonix shall require each of its customers to agree to confidentiality obligations with respect to the Confidential Information enforceable by the Manufacturer and the Licensee at least as onerous as those agreed to by the parties hereunder.

It is further understood and agreed that money damages may be an inadequate remedy for any breach of the restrictions on Confidential Information by Hydrozonix and that the Manufacturer or the Licensee shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach of the restrictions on Confidential Information. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy of the Manufacturer or the Licensee for a breach of the restrictions on Confidential Information by Hydrozonix but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to the Manufacturer or the Licensee.

c. Legal Opinion. Promptly upon the mutual execution of this Agreement, the Licensee shall deliver to Hydrozonix a legal opinion reasonably acceptable to Hydrozonix from patent counsel to the Licensee.

d. Intellectual Property. Hydrozonix, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates, agrees not to challenge, cause to be challenged, or, participate in any challenge, to the validity, enforceability, and/or infringement of the Patent Rights, the Know How or the Trademarks in any court or tribunal or agency worldwide during the Primary Term or Renewal Term of this Agreement or thereafter.

8. Termination.

a. By the Manufacturer or the Licensee. The Manufacturer or the Licensee may terminate this Agreement in the event that: (i) Hydrozonix fails to pay in full invoices as and when due hereunder and said failure is not cured by Hydrozonix within thirty (30) days after a written notice from the Manufacturer or the Licensee to do so; (ii) Hydrozonix breaches any representation or fails to perform any covenant, warranty or agreement contained herein, and said failure is not cured by Hydrozonix within thirty (30) days after a written notice from the Manufacturer or the Licensee to do so; or (iii) the bankruptcy of Hydrozonix.

b. By Hydrozonix. Hydrozonix may terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence of any of the following events by the Manufacturer or the Licensee, as appropriate:

i.	breach of any representation or failure to perform any covenant, warranty or agreement contained herein, and said failure is not cured by the Manufacturer or the Licensee within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written request from Hydrozonix to do so;

ii.	failure to Deliver Units on a specified delivery date, which failure is not cured by the Manufacturer within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Hydrozonix;

iii.	the Manufacturer’s cessation of the manufacturing of Units other than as a result of (A) an event of force majeure or (B) a delay caused by the Manufacturer’s suppliers so long as the Manufacturer used its best efforts to find an alternate supplier; or

iv.	the bankruptcy of the Manufacturer or the Licensee.

c. By Hydrozonix for Failure to Fulfill Orders. In the event that the Manufacturer fails to fulfill Hydrozonix’s Purchase Orders delivered in accordance with this Agreement after Hydrozonix delivers written notice and provides the Manufacturer with thirty (30) days to cure, then Hydrozonix shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, but the sub-license granted under Section 3 above with respect to Units already Delivered, and Hydrozonix’s obligation to pay royalties shall be unaffected. If at any time the Manufacturer is unable to meet the manufacturing demand of Hydrozonix for Units in accordance with the delivery quantities and schedules contemplated herein, then to prevent an interruption in the manufacturing of Units that would impede Hydrozonix’s ability to meet the needs of its customers, Hydrozonix shall have the right but not the obligation to have a third party that has first agreed to be bound by the restrictions on disclosure and use of Confidential Information set forth herein commence manufacturing of Units under the guidance and supervision of the Manufacturer provided such third party meets the quality control standards in Section 4.c. for the use of the Trademarks and Hydrozonix continues (i) to pay the Sub-license Fee and all royalties and (ii) to purchase those Units the Manufacturer is able to manufacture. In such event, the Manufacturer shall provide all necessary and helpful manufacturing data, supervision and guidance, including Confidential Information. In the event a third party manufactures Units, no Direct Costs or Overhead Costs shall be payable. In the event that the Manufacturer is jointly manufacturing Units with Hydrozonix, the parties shall negotiate a mutually agreeable payment arrangement so that the Manufacturer’s costs, expenses and profit on cost are adequately covered. Hydrozonix agrees that it does not intend to replace the Manufacturer as the manufacturer of the Units during the Primary Term or the Renewal Term of this Agreement.

If Hydrozonix enters into negotiations with a customer(s) that could result in increased Purchase Order volumes that could prevent the Manufacturer from manufacturing such volumes in the required timeframe, Hydrozonix shall provide prompt written notice to the Manufacturer of the magnitude of such Purchase Orders so that the Manufacturer can make arrangements to meet Hydrozonix’s potential increased demand for Units. Hydrozonix shall not represent nor imply to potential or existing customers that it can or will provide Units at volumes that exceed the Manufacturer’s current manufacturing capacity without first discussing with the Manufacturer its ability to manufacture at such increased Unit volumes and receiving its consent.

d. Survival of Certain Rights and Obligations. All accrued but unpaid payment obligations of any party hereto pursuant to this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement regardless of the reason for such termination. Further, if this Agreement terminates for any reason, the sub-license granted under Section 4 above and Hydrozonix’s obligation to pay for any Units then the subject of Purchase Orders and to pay royalties with respect to Units already Delivered and any such Units subject to Purchase Orders, in each case in conformity with this Agreement, shall be unaffected; however the sub-license and the Preferential Rights shall otherwise terminate.

9. Taxes. Hydrozonix shall be responsible for any sales and/or use taxes imposed by the federal, any state or local government or political subdivision thereof on the purchase of the Units sold to Hydrozonix hereunder, although the Manufacturer and/or the Licensee shall pay all other taxes, including any imposed or required on the Sub-license Fee and the Manufacturing Fee.

10. Representations and Warranties of the Manufacturer and the Licensee. The Manufacturer and the Licensee severally represent and warrant to Hydrozonix that:

a. the Licensee has the right to grant the sub-license and rights hereunder granted,

b. the Manufacturer has full title to the Patent Rights subject to the license granted under the Technology License Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “G” and the Licensee has the right to use and disclose the Know How and the Trademarks (including any Confidential Information therein) under this Agreement, and no other person has asserted a written claim or right to ownership of the Patent Rights, Know How or Trademarks,

c. other than the said Technology License Agreement and as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no other license, sub-license, assignment, sale, agreement or encumbrance has been made or entered into or shall be made or entered into which would conflict with this Agreement or sub-license granted herein,

d. the Manufacturer and the Licensee have no knowledge or reason to believe that the Patent Rights, Know How or Trademarks as sub-licensed herein are invalid or unenforceable,

e. they are in compliance and shall continue to comply with, and the Units will comply with, in each case, all state, federal and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to the operation of their business, including, without limitation, safety and transportation laws and regulations, except for any non-compliance that would not cause a material adverse effect on the Manufacturer’s or the Licensee’s respective business,

f. they are unaware of any material design defects in the Units,

g. the said Technology License Agreement is valid and binding on the parties thereto, and all consents required thereunder to allow for the sub-license herein granted have been obtained and delivered to Hydrozonix and are valid and effective,

h. the Manufacturer in its reasonable business judgment shall prepare, file, prosecute and maintain the patents and patent applications relevant to the sub-license granted herein, and

i. subject to agreement by the parties on the Purchase Price, Units Delivered to Hydrozonix will always incorporate the latest enhancements and technologies that the Manufacturer can produce, including Units purchased in the future with different model numbers.

11. Representations and Warranties of Hydrozonix. Hydrozonix represents and warrants to the Manufacturer and the Licensee that:

12. Security Interests. To secure its obligations hereunder, the Manufacturer and the Licensee hereby assign and grant to Hydrozonix a continuing first priority security interest in each Unit to be manufactured for Hydrozonix and its component parts, no matter how raw or unfinished, specifically identified to each such Unit. The Manufacturer and the Licensee hereby authorize Hydrozonix to execute UCC-1 Financing Statements on their behalves as debtors if the Manufacturer and the Licensee fail to execute and return the same within 10 days after Hydrozonix gives such documents to the Manufacturer and the Licensee for signature. Such security interest shall extend to cover all additions to, substitutions, replacements, products and proceeds of each such secured Unit and its component parts, including, without limitation, proceeds of insurance policies insuring such property. The Manufacturer and the Licensee further assign and grant to Hydrozonix a continuing first priority security interest in the assets described on attached Exhibit “H”. (The Units to be manufactured for Hydrozonix and the assets listed on attached Exhibit “H” are hereinafter jointly referred to as the “Secured Property”.) The security interest in the assets listed on Exhibit “H” shall terminate once the Manufacturer has Delivered to Hydrozonix eight (8) Units or the sub-license granted to Hydrozonix pursuant to Section 4.a. ceases to be exclusive. Upon request of the Manufacturer or the Licensee prior to the Delivery of all of such eight (8) Units, Hydrozonix shall not unreasonably withhold consent to the release of the security interest in the assets listed on Exhibit “H”. As long as this security interest remains in effect, the Manufacturer and the Licensee covenant and agree to:

a. notify Hydrozonix at least thirty (30) days in advance of any change in either of their names or the names under which either conducts business, and any new addresses at which any Secured Property shall be situated;

b. maintain insurance on the Secured Property and the operation of the Manufacturer’s business in adequate amounts and with reputable carriers;

c. defend the Secured Property against claims and demands of all persons other than Hydrozonix and promptly pay all taxes when due thereon unless contested in good faith;

d. prohibit and not sign or permit to be signed any financing statements or other documents creating or perfecting a lien upon or security interest in any of the Secured Property except in favor of Hydrozonix; and

e. execute such financing statements and other documents (and pay the cost of filing and recording same in all public offices deemed necessary by Hydrozonix) and do such other acts as Hydrozonix may reasonably request to establish and maintain a valid and perfected first priority security interest in the Secured Property, free and clear of all other liens and claims.

Once the security interest is terminated, Hydrozonix shall pay for additional Units purchased pursuant to the payment terms in Section 5.b.

13. Dispute Resolution. For any disputes arising hereunder that cannot be resolved by negotiation, the parties shall try in good faith to settle the dispute by mediation under the Commercial Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) before resorting to arbitration. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by mediation within twenty (20) business days shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration under the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitration will be conducted in West Palm Beach, Florida before three (3) arbitrators, named in accordance with such rules, who shall decide the dispute in accordance with the substantive law of Florida. The parties further agree that the AAA Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection shall apply to the proceedings.

14. Miscellaneous.

a. Assignment. This Agreement is not assignable in whole or in part by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. It is understood by the parties that any change of control of Hydrozonix will provide the Manufacturer and the Licensee with terms equal to those included in this Agreement.

b. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the subject matter hereof (other than, as between the Manufacturer and the Licensee, the Technology License Agreement), and supersedes, integrates and merges all prior discussions, correspondence, negotiations, understandings or agreements among them relating thereto, including the non-binding Term Sheet among Hydrozonix, the Manufacturer and the Licensee (which is hereby terminated). The parties each represent and warrant that there are no conditions, definitions, warranties, promises, agreements, understandings or representations, or remaining obligations, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Agreement, or as the same may subsequently be amended in writing by mutual agreement duly executed by the parties hereto.

c. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Exhibit 3

To: SunTrust Bank

I direct and authorize you to invest all temporary cash and the portion of my account(s) that is appropriate to maintain in cash or cash equivalents in a SunTrust Bank deposit option or Federated Funds money market fund, as follows:

Check One:

o	SunTrust Institutional Money Market Deposit Option	o	SunTrust Non-Interest Deposit Option*
o	Federated Prime Obligations Fund (POIXX)	o	Federated Treasury Obligations Fund – Institutional share class (TOIXX)
o	Federated Tax Free Obligations Fund (TBIXX)	o	Federated Treasury Obligations Fund – Institutional Capital share class (TOCXX)
o	Federated Municipal Obligations (MOFXX)	o	Federated Government Obligations Fund (GOIXX)
o	Other:

I acknowledge and consent that:

I understand that investments in the SunTrust Institutional Money Market Deposit Option are insured, subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), in the standard FDIC insurance amount of $250,000, including principal and accrued interest. The Parties understand that deposits in the SunTrust Institutional Money Market Deposit Option are not secured. Further, I understand that the SunTrust Institutional Money Market Deposit Option has monthly withdrawal/disbursement restrictions of a maximum of 6 per month and that should the maximum be reached in any one calendar month, the funds will be moved to a SunTrust Bank non-interest bearing deposit option until the beginning of the following month unless an alternate investment vehicle is selected for this purpose.

Alternate Investment Vehicle: ________________________________________________________________________

2.	I may view prospectuses and other Federated fund materials, including fee information, at ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇?▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇&▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇&▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇_▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

SunTrust Bank may receive compensation in exchange for services (“fees for services”) that it provides to various Federated money market mutual funds. These fees for services shall be in addition to, and will not reduce, SunTrust Bank’s compensation. Such fees for services will not be paid directly by your account, but will be paid to SunTrust Bank by Federated. The compensation rate to be paid by Federated for such fees for services shall be 0.10% (10 basis points) annually of the total amount of the account assets invested in the Federated money market mutual fund. If your assets are invested in the Institutional Capital Shares of Federated Treasury Obligations Fund, SunTrust Bank will receive additional fees for services paid by Federated Treasury Obligations Fund in an amount equal to 0.10% (10 basis points) annually of the total amount of the account assets invested in the Federated Treasury Obligation Fund’s Institutional Capital Shares. The fees for services are subject to change without notice.

4.	I understand no transaction charge will be imposed on the account(s) listed below with respect to that portion of the account(s) invested in Federated Funds;

I understand that investment funds, except for the SunTrust Deposit options, are not bank deposits and are not obligations of, or insured, endorsed or guaranteed by any SunTrust Bank or their affiliates, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency. I further understand that investment in any mutual fund involves some investment risk, including the possible loss of principal.

6.	I have full power to direct and authorize investments in account(s) identified below.

This direction and authorization shall continue in effect until revoked by written instruction delivered to the Bank. Until a replacement fund is provided to the Bank all funds will be held in cash.

If Licensee fails to enforce any of the Patents or other intellectual property rights in the Licensed Technology within the Field of Use and if Licensor shall desire to institute and prosecute any action with respect to the infringement of the Patents or other Licensed Technology within the Field of Use, Licensor shall give written notice of its desire to do so to Licensee. If, within 30 days of receipt of such notice, Licensee advises Licensor of its intent to enforce the Patents and other Licensed Technology within the Field of Use or fails to do so with diligence, then Licensee shall retain the rights set forth in Section 7.1 and shall be entitled to initiate, prosecute and control any such case, but if Licensee fails to so advise Licensor in writing within such 30 day period, then Licensor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control any case, action or proceeding with respect to infringement of the Patents and other Licensed Technology within the Field of Use, using counsel of its choice, including any declaratory judgment action arising from such infringement. Licensor may exercise such right by giving written notice to Licensee.

7.4

Enforcement by Licensee Outside the Field of Use. If Licensor fails to enforce any of the Patents or other intellectual property rights in the Licensed Technology outside the Field of Use, then Licensee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute, prosecute and control any case, action or proceeding with respect to infringement of the Patents and other Licensed Technology outside the Field of Use, using counsel of its choice, including any declaratory judgment action arising from such infringement. Licensee may exercise such right by giving written notice to Licensor. On Licensor’s written request, Licensee shall consult with and keep Licensor advised of Licensee’s strategies, plans, progress and results of any such enforcement action.

G-9

7.5

Cooperation in Litigation. Following the exercise by Licensee of the rights set forth in Section 7.1 or 7.4, Licensee shall have the right to bring any such action or proceeding to enforce claims under the Patents and other Licensed Technology in its own name, without naming Licensor as a party thereto. However, if necessary or desirable in Licensee’s sole discretion, Licensee may name Licensor as a party in any such action or proceeding to enforce the Patents or other Licensed Technology and, in the event of any enforcement action within the Field of Use by Licensee, if requested by Licensee, Licensor agrees to join the action as a party plaintiff. Following the exercise by Licensor of the rights set forth in Section 7.2 or 7.3, Licensor shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding to enforce claims under the Patents and other Licensed Technology in its own name, without naming Licensee as a party thereto. However, if necessary or desirable in Licensor’s sole discretion, Licensor may name Licensee as a party in any such action or proceeding to enforce the Patents or other Licensed Technology and, in the event of any such enforcement action within the Field of Use by Licensor, if requested by Licensor, Licensee agrees to join the action as a party plaintiff. Each party shall reasonably cooperate in the enforcement of any of the Patents or other Licensed Technology, including executing such documents as may be reasonably necessary. Each party shall execute all papers or perform any other acts or provide any assistance, at the other’s expense, toward pursuing such action, as reasonably required by the party bringing such action or proceeding. Each party agrees to use reasonable efforts to make its personnel reasonably available to cooperate, at the other party’s expense, toward pursuing such action.

Licensee will not be subject to any covenant not to ▇▇▇ or similar restrictions on its enforcement or enjoyment of any Patents or the related causes of action as a result of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or any prior transaction related to the Patents.

9.6

Validity and Enforceability. None of the Patents has been found invalid, unpatentable, or unenforceable for any reason in any administrative, arbitration, judicial or other proceeding, with the exception of publicly available documents in the applicable patent office recorded with respect to the Patents, and with such exception, Licensor does not know, has not received any notice or claim from any source suggesting that, the Patents are invalid, unpatentable, or unenforceable, nor does Licensor have any knowledge of any facts that render the Patents invalid, unpatentable or unenforceable. To the extent “small entity” fees were paid to the United States Patent and Trademark Office for any of the Patents, such reduced fees were then appropriate because the payor qualified to pay “small entity” fees at the time of such payment and specifically had not licensed rights in the any of the Patents to an entity that was not a “small entity.”

G-11

9.7

Conduct. To its knowledge, Licensor and its representatives have not engaged in any conduct, or omitted to perform any necessary act, the result of which would invalidate any of the Patents or materially hinder its enforcement, including, without limitation, misrepresenting Licensor’s patent rights to a standard-setting organization. To Licensor’s knowledge, there is no obligation imposed by a standards-setting organization on Licensee to license any of the Patents on particular terms or conditions.

9.8	Enforcement. Licensor has not (a) put a third party on notice of actual or potential infringement of any of the Patents or (b) initiated enforcement action(s) with respect to any of the Patents.

9.9	Patent Office Proceedings. None of the Patents has been or is currently involved in any reexamination, reissue, or interference proceeding, and no such proceedings are pending or threatened.

9.10	Fees. All maintenance fees, annuities and the like due or payable on each of the Patents have been timely paid.

9.11

Good Title, Free of Rights of Others. The Licensor reasonably believes that it owns all Licensed Technology, free and clear of all security interests, liens, encumbrances, restrictions, licenses, rights and claims of any Person. Licensor has all rights, title and interest in and to the material Licensed Technology necessary to grant the rights and licenses set forth in this Agreement, and to perform Licensor’s obligations under this Agreement, and has no reason to believe otherwise.

9.12

Inventors and Other Creators. The Licensed Technology was created, conceived, invented and developed solely by individuals who were employees of Licensor at the time that they created, conceived, invented and developed the Licensed Technology. Each Person who participated in the creation, conception, invention or development of any Licensed Technology has assigned by written agreement or by operation of law to Licensor all copyrights, patent rights, and other intellectual property rights in the Licensed Technology. Attached hereto as Exhibit C is a copy of each such assignment from each such Person.

9.13

Existing Licenses. To Licensor’s knowledge, no Person, except for customers or potential customers under contracts, agreements, commitments, bids, offers or rights to which EES Sub is a party or to which EES Sub will be a party upon transfer from Licensor, has a copy, or the right to acquire or discover a copy, or any right under, or any right to use all or any part of any of the Licensed Technology or any earlier version of any Licensed Technology. No licenses or rights of any kind have been granted by Licensor to any Person, except for customers or potential customers under contracts, agreements, commitments, bids, offers or rights to which EES Sub is a party or to which EES Sub will be a party upon transfer from Licensor, pertaining to all or any part of the Licensed Technology. There are no outstanding options, licenses or agreements of any kind relating to the Licensed Technology, or to the manufacture, use or sale of Licensed Products or their improvements, except for customers or potential customers under contracts, agreements, commitments, bids, offers or rights to which a EES Sub is a party or to which EES Sub will be a party upon transfer from Licensor, pertaining to all or any part of the Licensed Technology.

9.14

No Infringement. To its knowledge, the Licensed Technology, and the use thereof, does not infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any patent, copyright, mask work right, trademark right, trade dress right, trade secret right, or other intellectual property right of any Person. To its knowledge, the manufacture, use, sale, export and import of any of the Licensed Products do not infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property rights of any Person.

G-12

9.15	No Violation of Obligations of Licensor. The licenses granted by the Licensor in this Agreement, and the other obligations of Licensor under this Agreement do not constitute a breach of, default under or other violation of any agreement, contract or obligation of Licensor.

9.16	Trade Secrets. Licensor has taken reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of any material trade secrets included in the Licensed Technology.

9.17

Software Warranty. Licensor warrants to Licensee that the software that is included in the Licensed Technology shall: (a) perform generally in accordance with the documentation that Licensor has provided with such software; and (b) perform generally in accordance with industry standards of reliability.

G-13

Section 11. Indemnification

11.1

Licensor shall, at its own expense, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless and respond to any third party claim and defend any suit or proceeding brought against Licensee or Licensee’s sublicensees or customers, which claim, suit or proceeding is based on any allegation that the use of the Licensed Technology, or the manufacture, use or sale of any of the Licensed Products, constitutes (a) infringement of any patent or any copyright under the laws of the U.S., or (b) misappropriation or wrongful use of any trade secret. Licensor’s obligations under this Section 11.1 shall be conditioned on the following: any purported indemnitee must notify Licensor promptly of any such claim, suit or proceeding and shall give Licensor such information and assistance, at Licensor’s expense and at no out-of-pocket cost (other than delivery or telecommunications costs) to Licensee, as may be reasonably necessary to enable Licensor to respond to any such claim and to defend any such suit or proceeding, and Licensor shall have sole control over the defense and/or settlement of any such suit or proceeding. Licensor shall at all times keep Licensee advised, on a current basis, of the state of any such claim, suit or proceeding and Licensor’s actions with respect to the same. Licensee shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such claim, suit or proceeding at its own expense and its own counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Licensor shall have no obligations under this Section 11.1 with respect to any claim, suit or proceeding which results from (a) the combination or use of the Licensed Technology or a Licensed Product with any other goods or services not provided by Licensor, (b) the use of the Licensed Technology or a Licensed Product in a manner not expressly allowed under this Agreement, or (c) the use of a prior version of the Licensed Technology or a Licensed Product if an updated version has been made available by Licensor and the use of the updated version would have avoided such infringement or misappropriation.

11.2

Licensee shall, at its own expense, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless and respond to any third party claim and defend any suit or proceeding brought against Licensor or Licensor’s customers, which claim, suit or proceeding is based on any allegation arising out of or relating to any Licensed Products or the use of any Licensed Technology by Licensee or its customers or sublicensees, except with respect to third party claims, suits or proceedings for which Licensor has a duty of indemnification as expressly set forth in Section 11.1. Licensee’s obligations under this Section 11.2 shall be conditioned on the following: any purported indemnitee must notify Licensee promptly of any such claim, suit or proceeding and shall give Licensee such information and assistance, at Licensee’s expense and at no out-of-pocket cost (other than delivery or telecommunications costs) to such indemnitee, as may be reasonably necessary to enable Licensee to respond to any such claim and to defend any such suit or proceeding, and Licensee shall have sole control over the defense and/or settlement of any such suit or proceeding. Licensee shall at all times keep Licensor advised, on a current basis, of the state of any such claim, suit or proceeding and Licensee’s actions with respect to the same. Licensor shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such claim, suit or proceeding at its own expense and its own counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Licensee shall have no obligations under this Section 11.2 with respect to any claim, suit or proceeding for which Licensor has a duty of indemnification as expressly set forth in Section 11.1

11.3

In the event an indemnifying party fails to respond to any such claim or to defend any such suit or proceeding brought against an indemnitee, or an indemnifying party notifies an indemnitee that the indemnifying party is unable to do so, indemnitee may, but shall not be obligated to, respond to the claim or defend or assume the defense of the suit or proceeding, in which event indemnitee is hereby authorized, upon giving prior notice to the indemnifying party, to proceed, if it so elects, in the indemnifying party’s name and/or in its own name or the name(s) of its sublicensees or customer(s).

Cost Elements

Manufacturing Overhead

Manufacturing overhead costs for the 9th unit onwards will be calculated by taking the total actual costs incurred by Ecosphere Technologies, Inc. for the pre-defined list of Cost Elements, the current list of which is attached hereto, qualifying as “overhead”, and multiplying those Cost Elements by the agreed allocation percentages as shown in the schedule below. These costs will be allocated on a per unit basis based on the costs of the labor and components incurred at the manufacturing facility.

As an example, if Ecosphere Technologies spends a total of $50M in labor and components in a given fiscal year and Hydrozonix represents $25M of this amount, then Hydrozonix will be allocated 50% of the allocated overhead cost.

The per unit calculation is as follows:

1.	Hydrozonix systems total component and labor cost/ Total component and labor cost = Hydrozonix allocation %.

2.	(Sum of (Individual overhead items X the agreed allocation% for the item))X the Hydrozonix allocation % = Total Manufacturers overhead for Hydrozonix

3.	Total Manufacturers overhead for Hydrozonix/number of units built in fiscal year = Manufacturers overhead per unit.
