In consideration for the rights conveyed by this Agreement, Licensee shall pay the following to Licensor:

Royalty – 5.0%. Licensee shall pay Licensor a royalty of five percent (5.0%) of the Net Sales of Licensed Products which are either: i) sold or otherwise transferred for monetary payment prior to four (4) years from the Effective Date of this Agreement; or ii) are covered by a Valid Claim of a Licensed Patent issued in a territory in which the Licensed Products are sold.

Royalty – 3.0%.  In the event that no patent covering a Licensed Product has issued in a territory after four (4) years from the Effective Date of this Agreement, Licensee shall pay Licensor a royalty of three percent (3.0%) of the Net Sales of the Licensed Products in that territory. If a patent issues in a territory after four (4) years from the Effective Date of this Agreement, the royalty shall revert back to five percent (5.0%) of the Net Sales for Licensed Products sold in that territory.

Reimbursement of Development Costs.  Licensee shall pay to Licensor its costs incurred through the Effective Date in developing, testing and prototyping the Technology.  These costs include, but are not limited to, time charged by Mr. Elwood G. Norris at a rate of $100 per hour, limited to an aggregate of 250 hours prior to the Effective Date.

The parties acknowledge that Licensee intends to employ Elwood G. Norris on or after the Effective Date.

Patent Costs.  Licensee shall reimburse Licensor’s past costs, and shall be responsible for reimbursing all of Licensors’ future costs, in filing for, prosecuting and maintaining any of the Licensed Patents in the United States. Licensee may request that Licensor file patent applications in additional territories, in which case Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for all costs associated therewith. Should Licensee not elect to request patent filings in additional territories, Licensor may do so at its own expense, and Licensee shall not be obligated to reimburse or otherwise pay for the costs associated therewith.

Reasonableness of Royalty Rate.  The parties hereby agree that the Royalty payments set forth in this Section represent the value of the licenses granted hereunder for the right to use, manufacture, have manufactured, sell, have sold, offer for sale, distribute, and import and export the Licensed Products and all Improvements.  The parties further agree that any Licensed Patents covering the Licensed Products have utility to Licensee both individually and in the aggregate, and that it would be impracticable to identify each specific Licensed Patent being used. The parties further agree that any Intellectual Property other than patents covering the Licensed Products has utility to Licensee, and that it would be impracticable to identify each specific type of Intell ectual Property being used. As such, the parties have elected to (and agree that it is reasonable to) use the aggregate royalty rates provided for in this Section for Licensee’s use of the Intellectual Property.

Quarterly Payments.  The Royalties set forth in this Section shall accrue on the Net Sales made day-to-day, on a cash receipts basis, in each calendar quarter.  On or before the thirtieth day following the end of a calendar quarter (i.e. April 30th, July 30th, October 30th, and January 30th), Licensee shall submit payment of all accrued royalties on the Net Sales made in that calendar quarter.

Late Payments.  In the event that any payment due hereunder is not received by Licensor within 10 days of the due date for said payment, then Licensor shall be entitled to charge Licensee interest at the rate of five percent (5 %) per annum on said payments accrued from the date such payment was due.

Quarterly Reports. Licensee shall provide Licensor with a quarterly report on or before the thirtieth day following the end of a calendar quarter (i.e. April 30th, July 30th, October 30th, and January 30th) detailing the Net Sales made in that calendar quarter.  This quarterly report shall include at least an accounting of the Net Sales made, with any deductions therefore, and of all payments due.

Records.  Licensee shall keep records for a reasonable period of time of the Licensed Products manufactured, sold and distributed in sufficient detail to enable the Royalty Payment and any other payments due to Licensor to be determined.  In the event that Licensor disagrees with any such accounting, Licensor or its designated representative shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to Licensee, at Licensor’s expense and no more often than semi-annually to review and inspect the books and records of Licensee relating to the sale and distribution of the Licensed Products during normal business hours of Licensee at the location where such books and records are maintained, but for no more than the preceding two (2) years. In the event that any inspection by Licensor discloses any deficiencies in payments made to Licensor, then Licensee shall pay such additional amounts to Licensor within twenty (20) days following receipt of written notice thereof, together with all documentation necessary to support such additional payment by Licensee.  In the event that any such inspection discloses an overpayment by Licensee, then Licensee shall be entitled to deduct and offset any such overpayment from the subsequent amounts that become due.  In the event that there are no such subsequent payments to become due, then Licensor agrees to pay Licensee the full amount of any such overpayment within twenty (20) days following receipt of written notice thereof from Licensor.

Payment in U.S. Dollars.  All payments due hereunder shall be made in U.S. Dollars.

Taxes.  Licensee will pay any taxes incurred by it due to the use, manufacture, sale, distribution, or importation or exportation by Licensee of the Licensed Products.

Patent Protection Applied for by Licensor at Its Discretion.  Licensor may apply for patent protection covering the Technology within the United States at its sole discretion.  Should Licensor decide not to pursue patent protection in the United States on any portion of the Technology, Licensee may request that Licensor do so at Licensee’s expense.  Licensee may request that Licensor apply for patent protection covering the Technology outside of the United States at Licensee’s expense. Should Licensee elect not to apply for patent protection outside the United States, then Licensor may apply for patent protection outside the United States at Licensor’s expense.

Licensor to Own All Licensed Patents and Control Prosecution and Maintenance.  All Licensed Patents shall be owned, prosecuted, controlled and maintained solely by Licensor.

Licensor may Obtain Patent Protection on Licensee’s Improvements.  Licensor shall be entitled to file patent protection on Licensee’s Improvements at Licensor’s sole discretion.  Licensee agrees that its agents, principals and employees will provide all reasonable assistance in drafting and prosecuting any such patent, whether or not said agents, principals and employees are named as inventors.  Licensee agrees that its agents, principals and employees will execute all documents necessary to transfer ownership of all patents covering the Technology to Licensor.  The costs for any such filings shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.1.4 of this Agreement.

Notification of Infringements of the Licensed Patents.  Licensor and Licensee agree to notify each other in writing of any suspected infringement(s) of the Licensed Patents and provide any evidence therefore.

Enforcement and Defense of Licensed Patents. The parties shall confer in good faith regarding the enforcement or defense of any rights under the Licensed Patents, including whether to institute suit for infringement and the strategy for enforcing such rights.  Notwithstanding this cooperation, Licensee shall bear the burden of enforcing the Licensed Patents in the United States and any other territories in which it has elected to obtain patent protection to prevent infringements thereof.  Licensee shall be solely responsible for all attorneys’ fees, costs, and other expenses incurred in the enforcement and defense of the Licensed Patents in the United States and any other territories in which it has elected to obtain patent protection.  Licens or shall also, at its option, have the right to address infringements, institute suit, and join in any legal action for the enforcement or defense of any rights under the Licensed Patents to the extent that it affects Licensor’s rights or causes it damages within a territory.

Marking of Licensed Products. Licensee shall comply with the legal standards and requirements of the applicable country or territory for the marking of the Licensed Products and their packaging with a notice of the Licensed Patents.

Ownership of Improvements.  Licensor shall own all Improvements made or developed by Licensor or by Licensee.
