In no case will the Cumulative Advance Royalty be less than zero.

3.5 In the event the amount of the Advance Royalty and Running Royalty causes a project opportunity with the Licensee or a Sublicensee to be un-economic or non-competitive or noncommercial, then Licensor agrees to negotiate with Licensee in good faith, other reasonable terms in an attempt to cause the project opportunity to be economic or competitive or commercial; provided, however, that Licensor shall make the final determination of the amount of the Advance Royalty and Running Royalty and any adjustment in the amount of the Advance Royalty and Running Royalty set forth in Paragraph 3.4 for such Sublicensee shall not adversely affect the amount of the Advance Royalty and Running Royalty paid by other Sublicensees.

3.16 Pursuant to Paragraph 3.15, Licensor shall have the right to appoint an independent certified public accountant (“CPA”) at its own expense to determine that the correct amount of Royalties has been paid by Licensee or a Sublicense.

Any overpayment of Royalties by the Licensee or a Sublicensee shall be deducted from the next reporting period Royalty payments without recourse to the Licensor.

3.17 If the results of the examination pursuant to Paragraphs 3.15 and 3.16 determine that the Royalties were underpaid by an amount greater than or equal to 5% of the actual Royalties calculated over the last four quarters covering Licensee's fiscal year resulting from matters within Licensee’s control, then Licensee agrees to pay the cost of the examination plus a penalty equal to 10% of the amount of the underpayment in Royalties, the amount of the underpayment and the reimbursement of the costs of examination to be paid within thirty days of written notice of the underpayment. Further Licensor shall have the right to examine the calculation of Running Royalties over the succeeding two quarters at Licensor cost.

EXHIBIT “A”

DESCRIPTION OF THE LICENSED TECHNOLOGY

The “LICENSED TECHNOLOGY” shall mean a technology that involves the use of a series of thin membrane photo-bioreactors that are configured in a manner to facilitate rapid growth of various forms of micro-algae. Each photo-bioreactor is designed to allow the proper flow of nutrient rich food source and carbon dioxide (CO2) enhanced gases and water through the thin membrane photo-bioreactors. The gas is mixed in the reactor by the design elements that are employed. Further, the design of the photo-bioreactor allows the reactors to be closely stacked in a manner that allows sunlight to penetrate to all levels of the reactor. The overall design of the system allows the high yield, rapid production of various forms of algae biomass.

The algae biomass is then harvested and the target oil extracted. Depending on the species and strain of algae used, a yield of as much as 50% of the dry weight of the algae biomass is high quality recoverable oil. The oil is of a quality suitable as a feedstock for production of bio-diesel and bio-fuels.

The algae biomass, depending on the species and strain of algae, will produce biomass which can be used as raw material feedstock for other applications, including but not limited to, pharmaceutical, health, food, cosmetic and agricultural applications.

The Licensee’s initial commercialization and business objective and use of the Algae Biomass Technology is to be considered as a renewable energy source to deliver competitive and economic commercial volumes of bio-diesel and standard vegetable oil feedstock as a primary product in a form that is economically viable. The Licensee’s economics will also depend on the secondary products produced by the Algae Biomass Technology comprising the algae biomass.
