EXHIBIT A

 

The two main technologies being acquired in this Asset Purchase Agreement are VAD and OVD.

 

VAD or Vapor Axial Deposition, is the most economical and highest quality method to produce in core preforms, hence it used in the production of the bulk of optical fiber preforms. It uses metal aperture burners that deposits a fine silica oxide material transported by a huge amount of forced airflow within a sealed cabinet, called a deposition chamber. This fine glass material basically grows upward in the axial direction on a glass rod which creates a large-diameter porous glass preform, which must be heated to make the preform transparent, from which optical fiber can then be drawn.

 

OVD or Outside Vapor Deposition is the other method for producing optical fiber preforms. In this methodology, the preform is fabricated placing fine glass material through deposition on a mandrel by flame hydrolysis. Even though it can produce large diameter preforms, unlike VAD the mandrel limits the length of the preform. Additionally, after the process is complete, the mandrel must be removed carefully without damaging the inner surface before the heating process that delivers a transparent preform may be accomplished.

 

Ameritek Ventures will obtain the rights to both of the above optical fiber preform manufacturing technologies. These technologies have gone through upgrades to reduce waste, increase production rates and deliver world class quality performs. The rights to these technologies include, but are not limited to:

 

·All Schematic Diagrams of the VAD & OVD Equipment;
·All Vendors and associated parts used in the manufacturing of equipment;
·All Proprietary Computer Programming;
·All Process Control Software;
·All Intellectual Property associated with Preform Chemical Composition; and
·All future rights to Patent Development
