This reservation includes the right for SYSTEM to conduct research in the TERRITORY for the benefit of third parties where commercial practice of the LICENSED TECHNOLOGY by such third parties will not be practiced in the TERRITORY. SYSTEM reserves all rights not expressly granted in this Agreement and disclaims the grant of any implied rights to LICENSEE.

3.01

License Fee. In consideration for the license granted in this Agreement, LICENSEE must make an initial payment to SYSTEM in the amount of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00). This payment is due no later than ten (10) days after the EFFECTIVE DATE. Failure to make this payment within the specified period will cause this Agreement to immediately terminate.

3.02

Royalty Rate. As additional consideration for the license granted in this Agreement, LICENSEE must remit to SYSTEM a running royalty of three percent (3%) of NET SALES. LICENSEE may not accept anything of value in lieu of money payment without SYSTEM’s express written permission. When calculating NET SALES, SYSTEM may assign fair market value based upon comparable sales to receipts from transactions that are not made at fair market value.

3.03

Minimum Annual Consideration. In order to maintain this exclusive license to PATENT RIGHTS, LICENSEE must pay SYSTEM minimum annual consideration according to the following schedule:

(a)

Calendar Year 2018                                                  $ 10,000

4.02

Sublicensee Consideration. Each sublicensee’s sales of LICENSED PRODUCTS are subject to the royalty due to SYSTEM prescribed in paragraph 3.02. Further, LICENSEE must pay SYSTEM half of other considerations not in the form of royalty that LICENSEE receives from each sublicensee for a grant of rights in PATENT RIGHTS, except that LICENSEE may not be required to remit to SYSTEM any portion of funds it receives from any sublicensee(s) when the funds are documented in writing as payments for the following purposes: (i) research, development, or testing of LICENSED PRODUCTS on LICENSEE’s behalf, or (ii) patent expenses for protection of PATENT RIGHTS to which the sublicensee is contributing.

4.03

Copies and Reporting of Sublicenses. LICENSEE must deliver to SYSTEM a true, complete, and correct copy of each sublicense and any modification or termination thereof within thirty (30) days following the applicable execution, modification, or termination of such sublicense. If the sublicense is not in English, LICENSEE must provide SYSTEM with an accurate English translation and a copy of the original agreement. LICENSEE must provide SYSTEM with copies of each sublicensee’s report as is pertinent to calculation of amounts due SYSTEM under this Agreement.

4.04

Non-Cash Transactions. LICENSEE may not accept anything of value in lieu of money payment under a sublicense without SYSTEM’s express written permission.

4.05

Restrictions. A sublicense shall not exceed the scope and rights granted to LICENSEE under this Agreement. If this Agreement terminates, paragraph 8.05 (Effect of Termination) shall govern continued sublicense rights.

4.06

Licensee Primarily Liable. LICENSEE is and will remain primarily liable to SYSTEM for all of the LICENSEE’s duties and obligations in this Agreement including without limitation the payment of running royalties due under paragraph 3.02. Any act or omission of a sublicensee that would be a breach of this Agreement if performed by LICENSEE will be deemed to be a breach by LICENSEE of this Agreement unless LICENSEE complies with the remaining provisions of this paragraph 4.06. LICENSEE shall include in each sublicense a right of termination exercisable by LICENSEE if the sublicensee breaches the payment or reporting obligations affecting SYSTEM or any other terms and conditions of the sublicense that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if LICENSEE had performed such acts or omissions. In the event of a sublicensee breach and if after reasonable opportunity to cure as provided in any such sublicense not to exceed thirty (30) days for a payment breach and sixty (60) days for a non-payment breach, such sublicensee fails to cure such sublicensee breach, then the LICENSEE must terminate the sublicense within thirty (30) days thereafter, with a copy of such written notice of termination to SYSTEM.

5.01

Milestones. LICENSEE must achieve the following milestones to SYSTEM’s satisfaction:

(a)

LICENSEE must complete development of a commercial prototype of a LICENSED PRODUCT no later than July 1, 2016.

(b)

LICENSEE must record first sales of LICENSED PRODUCTS no later than December 31, 2017.

5.02

Failure to Accomplish Milestones. If LICENSEE fails to achieve any milestone specified in paragraph 5.01, or if LICENSEE fails to record NET SALES for two (2) consecutive Calendar Years once sales begin, SYSTEM, at its sole option, may waive the requirement to achieve the milestone, reduce the license granted to a nonexclusive license, renegotiate the missed milestone, or terminate this Agreement under paragraph 8.03.

5.03

Legal Compliance. LICENSEE must comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations in its exercise of all rights granted by SYSTEM under this Agreement.

6.01

Patent Filing and Prosecution.

6.02

Patent Maintenance. SYSTEM must maintain all U.S. patents resulting from the prosecution described above, unless the LICENSEE and SYSTEM mutually agree otherwise or final and unappealable determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that a particular patent is held invalid. The Parties agree this paragraph 6.02 does not apply to U.S. patent application number 14/184,547 filed by Royal Caridea LLC in which SYSTEM is a joint owner.

6.03

Financial Responsibility. LICENSEE must reimburse SYSTEM for all expenses incurred by SYSTEM in filing, prosecuting, and maintaining each patent application and patent under PATENT RIGHTS in the TERRITORY.

This includes past patent expenses totaling $3,410.03 due within 30 days of the EFFECTIVE DATE.

6.04

Information. SYSTEM must disclose to LICENSEE the complete texts of all patent applications filed by SYSTEM under PATENT RIGHTS as well as all information received concerning office actions, the institution or possible institution of any interference, opposition, re-examination, reissue, revocation, nullification or any other official proceeding involving PATENT RIGHTS. SYSTEM must provide to LICENSEE the opportunity to provide input to the development of each patent application and any official proceedings filed by SYSTEM for LICENSED TECHNOLOGY.

6.05

Patent Filing by Licensee. LICENSEE will not file any patent application claiming priority to, or benefit of, PATENT RIGHTS without the prior written authorization of SYSTEM.

7.01

When Payments are Due. Unless otherwise specified, LICENSEE must make payments to The Texas A&M University System, in College Station, Texas, not later than sixty (60) days after the last day of the calendar quarter in which they accrue.

7.02

Royalty Reports. LICENSEE must provide a sales report to SYSTEM each quarter, providing information sufficient to allow SYSTEM to calculate amounts due SYSTEM for the reporting period.

7.03

Currency. LICENSEE must tender all payments due to SYSTEM in U.S. dollars. Royalty payments requiring conversion must use the exchange rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the royalty reporting period.

7.04

Inspection of Books and Records. At its own expense, SYSTEM may annually inspect LICENSEE’s books and records as needed to determine royalties payable. LICENSEE must maintain those books and records for at least three (3) years following the dates of the underlying transactions. Any inspections will be in confidence and conducted during ordinary business hours, and SYSTEM will provide LICENSEE advance notice two (2) weeks before making an inspection. SYSTEM may employ a Certified Public Accountant for this purpose. If SYSTEM’s audit identifies a shortage of five percent (5%) or more of amounts due to SYSTEM, then LICENSEE must pay the costs of SYSTEM’s audit. LICENSEE must pay all amounts due as a consequence of an audit to SYSTEM promptly with interest.

7.05

Interest Charges. SYSTEM may, in its sole discretion, charge daily interest on overdue payments commencing on the 31st day after the payment is due, compounded monthly, at the lower of either 1.5% per month or the highest legal interest rate. The payment of interest will not foreclose SYSTEM from exercising any other rights it may have due to the lateness of any payment.

8.01

Expiration. This Agreement, unless sooner terminated as provided below, will remain in effect until (a) expiration of the last to expire patent under PATENT RIGHTS, or (b) final and unappealable determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that all PATENT RIGHTS are invalid.

All rights and licenses of sublicensees shall terminate upon termination of the Agreement; provided however, if the sublicensee is in good standing and agrees in writing to assume all of the obligations of LICENSEE and provides SYSTEM with written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after termination of the Agreement, then such sublicense shall survive;

In addition, the provisions of Article III (Consideration) and Article VII (Payments and Reports) shall survive with respect to all activities and payment obligations accruing prior to the termination or expiration of the Agreement.

9.01

Indemnification. LICENSEE MUST AT ALL TIMES DURING AND AFTER THE TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT INDEMNIFY, DEFEND, AND HOLD HARMLESS SYSTEM, ITS MEMBERS, REGENTS, OFFICERS, AND EMPLOYEES AGAINST ANY CLAIM, PROCEEDING, DEMAND, LIABILITY OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING LEGAL EXPENSE AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) WHICH RELATES TO INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY, ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY A THIRD PARTY ALLEGING INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, OR AGAINST ANY OTHER CLAIM, PROCEEDING, DEMAND, EXPENSE, OR LIABILITY OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM THE PRODUCTION, MANUFACTURE, SALE, COMMERCIAL USE, LEASE, CONSUMPTION, OR ADVERTISEMENT OF LICENSED PRODUCTS OR ARISING FROM ANY OBLIGATION OF LICENSEE OR SUBLICENSEE(S) UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

SYSTEM neither represents that a license will not be required nor that, if required, it will be issued.

11.04

Confidential Information. LICENSEE’s sales reports submitted by pursuant to Article VII will be considered confidential information under this Agreement, and SYSTEM shall not disclose such sales reports to any third party except as may be required by law.

11.06

Trademarks. LICENSEE may select, own and use its own trademark on LICENSED PRODUCTS. However, SYSTEM does not grant LICENSEE any license or other right under any trade name, trademark, or service mark owned or licensed by SYSTEM.

11.08

Force Majeure. Other than an obligation for the payment of money, SYSTEM, upon receipt of documentation from LICENSEE which it deems appropriate, must excuse any breach of this Agreement which is proximately caused by war, strike, act of God, or other similar circumstance normally deemed outside the control of well-managed businesses.

11.09

Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties regarding PATENT RIGHTS, and supersedes all other prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements between the Parties regarding PATENT RIGHTS. It may be modified only by a written amendment signed by the Parties.

11.12

No Waiver; Severability. Neither Party will be deemed to have waived any of its rights under the Agreement unless the waiver is in writing and signed by such Party.
