ARTICLE 2 – LICENSE RIGHTS

Section 2.1 Grant of License Rights. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Licensor hereby grants American the Full Right in the Territory to market and sell Systems and utilize the Technology. As of the Effective Date, the territory (the “Territory”) shall be the states of California, New York and Texas, it being agreed that Licensor shall not grant any Person the right to sell Systems in New Jersey or Florida before the date by which American must satisfy the requirement set forth in clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 2.1(b) . For the avoidance of doubt, American shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the license rights that are granted to it in the Technology itself or through any of its Affiliates, but American shall not have the right to issue sublicenses to any Person other than an Affiliate. The Parties further agree as follows:

     (a) Notwithstanding anything that is contained herein to the contrary, American shall be credited for the sale of all of the Systems sold to Covanta during the term of this Agreement regardless of whether such Systems are for use inside or outside the Territory.

     (b) American shall be required to secure or to help Licensor or Global to secure (i) an order for one KDV 500 prior to the end of the Interim Period (it being agreed that the Purchase Order being placed by Covanta for the Demonstration Plant satisfies this requirement) and (ii) orders for an additional two KDV 500s prior to the end of the Initial Period. If American fails to secure or help Licensor or Global to secure orders for a total of three KDV 500s prior to the end of the Initial Period, Licensor shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to notify American that it must give up its Full Rights for one (1) of the states in the Territory (such state to be selected by American). If American meets the two (2) requirements set forth in this Section 2.1(b), the Territory thereafter shall be the states of California, New York, Texas, New Jersey and Florida. The phrases “secure orders” as used herein mean that a Person has executed a Purchase Order for one or more KDV 500s and made the initial deposit thereunder.

     (c) Licensor acknowledges and agrees that the ability of American to meet the requirements set forth in this Section 2.1 will depend, in part, on the initial three KDV 500s installed in the United States (including the Demonstration Plant) demonstrating the technical and financial viability of the Technology. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) if there is any delay in the installation of any of the initial three (3) KDV 500s in the United States, including the Demonstration Plant (with such KDV 500s meeting all performance guarantees), beyond the date committed by AK in the applicable Purchase Order or (ii) if any such KDV 500s experience operating or financial problems due to a failure of the KDV 500 to operate in accordance with its performance guarantees, then all of the time periods set forth in this Section 2.1 shall be extended automatically for the full period of all such delays for all purposes hereof.

     (d) During the Extended Period, American shall be required to secure orders for: (i) two (2) KDV 500s per year for each of the first two (2) full calendar years of the Extended Period; (ii) five (5) KDV 500s per year for each of the next two (2) calendar years of the Extended Period; and (iii) ten (10) KDV 500s per year for each calendar year thereafter, each such determination to be made on a cumulative basis (such that American shall be entitled to credit additional KDV 500s sold in one year above the minimum requirement for that year to a later year). If American fails to meet any such targets in any calendar year during the Extended Period, Licensor shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to notify American that it shall only have a Qualified Right in all of the states in the Territory to market and sell Systems and utilize the Technology for the remainder of the term of this Agreement. Licensor agrees that all Systems sold by Licensor outside the Territory that are pursuant to a referral made by American shall count towards American’s minimum purchase requirements hereunder. However, none of the Systems purchased by Covanta or an Affiliate of Covanta for its own account during the Extended Period shall count towards meeting American’s minimum purchase requirements unless the sale of Systems is to a project developed by American or an Affiliate of American in which Covanta is an investor.

     (e) For purpose of meeting any of the minimum order thresholds for KDV 500s which are set forth in this Section 2.1, if a System is developed by AK (such as the “KDV 2000” which is currently under development by AK) that is capable of producing a higher amount of diesel oil per hour than a KDV 500 (expected to be 2,000 liters per hour in the case of a “KDV 2000” as compared to 500 liters per hour for a KDV 500), then such System will count as more than one KDV 500 based on the amount of diesel oil per hour capable of being provided (expected to be four KDV 500s in the case of a “KDV 2000”).

     (f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, American shall not lose its Full Rights in any state in the Territory if it fails to meet the cumulative order requirements in Section 2.1(b) or (d) if (i) AK is not able to produce enough Systems to meet the Purchase Orders secured by American, Licensor and Global or (ii) any problems experienced with the Technology in the Systems installed by AK make it commercially unreasonable for American to secure orders for any additional Systems until such problems have been resolved, in which case the Parties shall agree to an equitable adjustment, in good faith, to the cumulative requirements provisions of Sections 2.1(b) and (d) or extend the date for such requirements to be performed.

     (g) If American fails to meet its performance obligations under this Section 2.1 and Licensor elects to require American to give up its Full Rights in one or more of the states in the Territory as further provided for herein, American’s sole penalty will be for its rights in such state(s) to become a Qualified Right to market and sell the Technology for the remainder of the term of this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Obligation to Make Referrals. If any Person contacts Licensor or any of its Affiliates regarding the purchase of one or more Systems for installation in the Territory, Licensor shall refer such Person to American.

Section 2.3 Sales to Covanta Energy. The sale of all Systems to Covanta or to any of its Affiliates, including the Demonstration Plant, shall be pursuant to Purchase Orders placed with AK through Licensor, and American shall derive a license fee on all such sales. Licensor shall mark up the cost of all of the Systems that are sold to Covanta or any of its Affiliates (other than the System for the Demonstration Plant) by ten percent (10%) and pay fifty percent (50%) of such amount to American as its commission. Such commissions shall be paid to American as the payments that are due from Covanta or its Affiliates are received under the applicable Purchase Order.

Section 2.4 Commission on Sales to Other Customers. American shall be entitled to a commission of five percent (5%) on all Systems that are sold in the Territory. If American identifies a Customer that is interested in purchasing one or more Systems in an area that is outside the Territory, American shall refer such Customer to Licensor and, if such sale is completed (the decision to complete such sale to be made by Licensor in its sole discretion), American shall be entitled to a commission of five percent (5%) on such sale. Licensor shall mark up the cost of all of the Systems on which American is entitled to a commission by ten percent (10%) and pay fifty percent (50%) of such amount to American as its commission. Commissions shall be paid to American as the payments that are due under the applicable Purchase Orders are received. For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with Customers that are identified by American outside of the Territory, Licensor shall be obligated to pay the commission to American if the System is sold within two (2) years after the Customer is identified to Licensor by American.

Section 2.5 Purchase Orders. All purchase orders for System(s) (“Purchase Orders”) shall be entered into by and between AK (or its designee) and the ultimate purchaser of such System(s) (the “Purchaser”), although all Purchase Orders shall be placed through Licensor and provide for the payment of a sales commission to Licensor (except for the Systems sold for the Demonstration Plant). Each Purchase Order shall include a set of representations and warranties made by AK to the Purchaser which are consistent with those provided by Licensor to American in Article 8 and a non-exclusive, irrevocable and perpetual license (a “Use License”) for the Purchaser to (i) use, practice, operate, maintain, repair and make Improvements to the System(s), (ii) purchase the catalyst that is required for the operation of the System(s) from AK and/or any Person that is authorized to manufacture and/or sell such catalyst by AK, (iii) purchase components and spare parts for the System(s) from AK and/or any Person that is authorized to manufacture and/or to sell such components and spare parts and (iv) reproduce, modify and internally distribute copies of any and all materials and information received by American from Licensor and/or AK relating to the System(s), in whole or in part. In addition, if the Purchaser sells or transfers any of the System(s) to any Person (a “Third Party Purchaser”), the Purchaser shall be entitled to transfer its Use License to such Third Party Purchaser and each Third Party Purchaser shall be entitled to transfer such Use License to another Third Party Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained or implied in clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.5, all Purchasers and all Third Party Purchasers shall be entitled to procure components, spare parts and catalysts that

are commercially available from any Person. Further, if AK and the Persons authorized to make spare parts and components that are not commercially available are unable to timely supply the spare parts and components ordered by a Purchaser or a Third Party Purchaser, such Purchaser or Third Party Purchaser shall be authorized to purchase such spare parts and components from any other Person and to make such spare parts and components itself.

ARTICLE 3 – ANNUAL PRICING; NO ROYALTIES

subject to the consent of the aforesaid corporation which has to be certified by a notary public.

The parties identified themselves by official identity documents with pictures.

Mr. Yossi Raz, according to his own statement and the notary’s conviction, has insufficient knowledge of the German language, but knows sufficient English. At the time of certification the notary translated the document and the questions asked into English. All parties waived the services of an interpreter. As appendix 2 there is an English translation that has been made by the party and controlled by the notary. The annex also was made part of the notarial act. If there are differences between the German and the English text the German text shall prevale.

The reading of this deed was started on Nov. 14th, but interrupted as Mr. Raz had to leave, and resumed at the point, where it had been interrupted on Nov. 22nd and finished and signed by the parties on this day.

Upon the parties’ request I hereby certify the following:

---

He must leave the other partner a reflection time of at least one month. In case of sale, the other partner has the right of first refusal.

3.	If the other partners join the termination by a partners’ resolution, the company will be in liquidation at the date of termination. The terminating party will take part in the liquidation.

Article 12: Confiscation of Partnership Share, Retirement

1.	The confiscation of business shares is permissible. It does not require the consent of the involved partner if:
	a)	insolvency proceedings are opened concerning his assets, or the opening is refused for lack of assets, or
	b)	his business share is taken in execution (by a third party);
	c)	there is significant cause. A significant cause is in particular when, due to the misconduct of a partner, the other partners cannot be required to continue their business relationship with him. No fault is necessary for this.
2.	Instead of confiscating the partnership share, the partners’ assembly may decide to transfer the business share to one or several partners or to a third party named by the partners’ assembly. In the partners’ resolution each co-partner may require that in the case of assignation, the share of the retiring partner shall be transferred in proportion to his share in the company (accrual). Should an exact proportional division not be possible, the shares shall be divided as closely as possible.
3.	If there is a right to confiscate, such confiscation or a partners’ resolution according to Paragraph 2 can only occur within six months from of the time the cause becomes

11

---

	known, but only as long as the cause for confiscation still exists. This includes the knowledge by one of the managers (regardless of the type of representation authority) of the company, insofar as the cause is not linked to the very person of this manager.
4.	The resolution concerning confiscation or retirement is adopted by the partnership assembly at which the partner to be dismissed has no right to vote.
5.	Confiscation or retirement are subject to remuneration. The remuneration will be payable by the buyer of the share, observing Section 30 of the Limited Liability Companies Law (forbidding that the share capital is being paid back by the company to the partner). The amount of remuneration will be determined according to the regulations et forth below.

Article 13: Remuneration for confiscated or assigned shares

1.	If business shares are confiscated or assigned in accordance with these Articles of Association, the entitled partner or his successors will be remunerated for it. For this purpose the management will immediately prepare a compensation balance sheet. In this balance sheet all assets and liabilities shall appear at their real value at the time of the partner’s retirement. The company’s goodwill - if permissible - is not to be taken into account. The retired partner will not participate in pending transactions.
2.	If the parties involved cannot reach an agreement as to the value, it will be determined by an expert. The expert will be appointed upon demand of one of the parties by the President of the Bayreuth Chamber of Industry and Commerce. The costs of the valuation will be borne by the retired party and the company in equal shares.
3.	The remuneration will be paid in five equal annual installments. The first installment is due for payment six months after the confiscation resolution or the date of retirement of the partner involved, and the following installments on the corresponding calendar day of the subsequent years. The outstanding installment will bear annual interest of 2% - two percent - over the basic interest rate as described in the Euro Introduction Law commencing with the confiscation resolution or the date of retirement. The interest will be calculated at current account bank rates and shall be due for payment together with the following installment.

12

---

4.	The compensation can be pre-paid fully or partially, and partial pre-paid amounts will be deducted from the following installment due. No security may be demanded.

Article 14: Exclusivity/Prohibition of Competition

Alphakat GmbH, Buttenheim gives the right to sell world wide. No other company or person can get the same rights for the world-wide distribution.

Alphakat GmbH appoints the company to be the sole marketing agent for the United States of America and the Chinese market. Alphakat GmbH will not use any marketing channels on those markets except already established contacts.

The parties involved acknowledge that Alphakat GmbH, Buttenheim has already granted third parties the right to sell the Technology and products in various areas, as described in detail in the agreement dated May 02, 2007. Alphakat GmbH explicitly reserves the right, as long as those agreements are valid and in their material extent, to execute and fulfill those agreements with third parties on its own account. No compensation in that respect has been agreed upon.

The foregoing exclusive dealing requirements are valid as long the contract from May 2nd 2007 is valid (including amendments or following contracts).

By a partners’ resolution to which both partners must consent, the partners and managers may also regulate whether there are further prohibitions of competition, whether to give exemptions and whether the exemption occurs against remuneration or without remuneration.

Should one of the partners - for whatever reason - retire from the company, he has the obligation not to exploit business secrets of which he learned pursuant to the execution of this partnership agreement, either himself or by transfer to third parties at the expense of the company founded or on the account of the other partner.

Article 15: Additional Contributions to the Company

13

---

1.	All sales and similar transactions will be made directly between Alphakat GmbH, Buttenheim and the business partner. The sales price of each such transaction will include a 10% commission (not including Value Added Taxes as per law), which will be paid by Alphakat GmbH directly to the newly founded company. The company has the right to make higher price offers, as long as the market accepts them. In such case, the company would profit fully from the difference between the purchase price offered by it and the regular sales prices. Alphakat GmbH and the company will mutually coordinate their prices.
2.	Alphakat GmbH will grant all necessary technical assistance and support by the company to any end user and buyer of the Technology and products in order to support the marketing of the technology and the products during sales.
3.	Global Energy Inc. will establish a financial program in order to support the end user in the acquisition of Alphakat GmbH products. However Global Energy Inc. reserves the right to put such financial support only at the disposal of selected and adequate end users. Moreover Global Energy Inc. has the responsibility of providing the permits and tests necessary for the sale of the diesel oil produced by the use of the marketed products and technology. Global Energy Inc. is free to decide where they should do the marketing (i.e. also obtaining permits).

Article 17: Publications

The company’s publications will be made only in the Electronic Federal Journal (elektronischer Bundesanzeiger).

Article 18: Tax Clause

The executive organs of the company must respect the trading and tax law principles of orderly business management and shall maintain the care in business transactions that would be taken by an orderly and conscientious businessman.

The management shall in particular not be authorized to grant advantages to the partners or persons and companies close to them beyond the profit distribution resolution duly adopted, neither to violate the prohibition of additional or retroactive payments, nor to breach other acknowledged tax law principles which, when

14

---

disregarded, cause covert profit distribution. In case of non compliance, the amount of the imbalance shall be covered by the partner to whom the advantage was credited and the usual bank interests paid from the time the advantage was granted until the payment is settled. Transactions in breach of the above stipulations are void ab initio.

Insofar as the tax administration or tax courts recognize the payment received as income received by the partner concerned despite the above tax clause, without considering the repayment as negative income, the partner will only have to repay the advantage remaining after deducting the additional income tax payable by him plus the usual bank interest.

Article 19: General Instructions

1.	Insofar as not otherwise stipulated in this agreement, the German Law regarding Private Limited Companies (GmbH) shall prevail. The agreement is formulated according to the provisions of German Company Law and is subject to the jurisdiction of German courts.
2.	Should any of the provisions of this agreement be or become invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of the agreement shall remain valid nevertheless and shall be binding on the parties to the agreement. The partners undertake in such case to immediately and retroactively change the interpretation, whether completely or by replacing any invalid provision retroactively, so that it becomes as close as possible to the intended purpose.

Article 20: Cost

The costs of notarizing the partnership agreement, the publication, the application for registration and registration of the Company in the Trade Registry as well as the costs of consultancy services in respect of the establishment shall be borne by the Company up to an estimated amount of € 2,000; any establishment costs above that amount shall be borne by the partners. This applies without prejudice to the legal personal liability of the parties.
