MANUFACTURING, SALES AND DISTRIBUTION LICENSE AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT 10.2
MANUFACTURING, SALES AND DISTRIBUTION
LICENSE AGREEMENT
This Manufacturing, Sales and Distribution License Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of February 1, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Touchstone Enviro Solutions, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Licensor”), and Black Bird Potentials Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Licensee”).
Background
Licensor has developed, and is the owner of, a biopesticide known as “MiteXstream” (EPA Reg. No. 95366-1) (the “Licensed Product”).
Licensor is an affiliate of Licensee and of the parent company of Licensee, Digital Development Partners, Inc., a publicly-traded company (“DGDM”).
Pursuant to a Distribution and Private Label Agreement dated as of October 16, 2018 (the “Original Agreement”), between Thoreauvian Products Services, LLC, a subsidiary of Licensor (“TPS”), and Licensee, a subsidiary of DGDM, pursuant to which TPS, on behalf of Licensor, granted Licensee the exclusive right to distribute the Licensed Product in the United States and Canada.
Pursuant to this Agreement, Licensee is to become the exclusive worldwide manufacturer, seller and distributor of the Licensed Product.
Licensee desires to acquire from Licensor an exclusive license to manufacture, sell and distribute the Licensed Product.
The principals of Licensor, who also control DGDM and Licensee, have determined to cause Licensor to grant to Licensee greater rights with respect to the Licensed Product by terminating the Original Agreement and entering into this Agreement, in order to maximize Licensee’s ability to exploit the commercial potential of the Licensed Product.
Agreement
In consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Licensor and Licensee agree as follows:
1. Recitals. Licensor and Licensee agree that the statements set forth above under “Background” are true and correct.
2. Termination of Original Agreement. Licensor and Licensee agree that, on the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Original Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force and effect.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, materials, trade secrets or other information which is orally or visually disclosed by a Party, or is disclosed in writing without an appropriate letter, stamp or legend, shall constitute Confidential Information if the disclosing Party, within thirty (30) days after such disclosure, delivers to the other Party a written document or documents describing the materials, trade secrets or other information and referencing the place and date of such oral, visual or written disclosure and the names of the persons to whom such disclosure was made.
3.2. Party. “Party” or “Parties” means Licensor and/or Licensee.

3.4. Term. “Term” means the period from the Effective Date to and including December 31, 2080.
4. License.
4.1. License.

4.2 Minimum Sales. To maintain the exclusive nature of the License granted in Section 4.1, Licensee shall be required to manufacture not less than 2,500 gallons (the “Minimum Sales Requirement”) of the Licensed Product during each calendar year of the Term; provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 4.2, Licensee shall be deemed to have satisfied the Minimum Sales Requirement through December 31, 2022. Should Licensee fail to satisfy the Minimum Sales Requirement during any calendar year, the License granted in Section 4.1 shall, ipso facto, become a non-exclusive license.
4.3 Sublicensing. Licensee shall have the right to grant sublicenses under the rights granted to Licensee in Section 4.1 to its affiliates or third parties, without the prior written consent of Licensor; provided, however, that any such sublicense shall be consistent with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided further, however, that no such sublicense shall relieve Licensee of any of its obligations under this Agreement.
4.4. Trademarks. For no additional consideration, and in order to maximize Licensee’s ability to exploit the commercial potential of the Licensed Product, Licensor hereby grants to Licensee an exclusive, royalty-free, fully-paid right and license to use the following trademarks of Licensor throughout the Term of this Agreement: (a) “MiteXstream”; and “Harnessing the Power of Water”.

Any Royalty which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of 1% per month on the unpaid balance.
5.5. One Royalty. In no event shall more than one Royalty be due Licensor.
5.6. Further Consideration. As further consideration for Licensor’s entering into this Agreement, Licensee understands and agrees that Licensee, including its affiliates, shall continue to be bound by that certain Mutual Non-Disclosure and Non-Circumvention Agreement between TPS and Licensee dated as of October 16, 2018 (the “Non-Circumvention Agreement”).

At the request of Licensee, Licensor shall provide to Licensee advice regarding the technical merits of any such claim.
(b) Licensor shall defend Licensee at Licensor’s sole cost and expense, and will indemnify and hold harmless Licensee, from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, fees and expenses arising out of or in connection with the infringement or alleged infringement by the Licensed Product of any United States or foreign patent, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property right of any third party and any settlements relating thereto, provided that Licensor shall have sole control and authority with respect to the defense or settlement of any such claim or action and Licensee shall cooperate fully with Licensor in the defense or settlement of any such claim or action. In the event that the Licensed Product becomes, or in Licensor’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement of any United States or foreign patent, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property right of any third party, Licensor may, at its option, either secure for Licensee the right to continue using the Licensed Product, replace or modify the Licensed Product to make it non-infringing without impairment of function or, if neither of the foregoing alternatives is reasonably available to Licensor, terminate Licensee’s rights and licenses to the Licensed Product under this Agreement and refund to Licensee all amounts paid by Licensee to Licensor during the previous five years.
(c) The provisions of Section 7.5(b) notwithstanding, Licensor shall not have any liability under Section 7.5(b) to the extent that any infringement or claim results from: (1) use of the Licensed Product in combination with some other product or pharmaceutical formulation not supplied by Licensor where the Licensed Product itself would not be infringing; or (2) modifications of the Licensed Product where the Licensed Product, if not modified by or for Licensee, would not be infringing.
(d) This Section 7.5 states the entire responsibility of Licensor under this Agreement, in the case of any claimed infringement or violation of any third party’s rights or unauthorized use or misappropriation of any third party’s technology.
