BACKGROUND:
WHEREAS, the Licensor wishes to assign the Licensee, a certain partially developed set of technologies, in need of further development work, Intelliclad - Smart Buildings and the Licensee desires to use the Technology License in accordance with the terms and conditions stated below.
WHEREAS, Intelliclad is perhaps best characterized as Smart Buildings employing a Smart Buildings Safety System. Prompted by a major disaster, Intellicald was designed in response to the major Xxxxxxxx fire in June 2017 which claimed almost 100 lives, as residents could not escape the tall building. Intelliclad sensors digitize the entire tall building into smart module which is monitored in real time for environmental risks including fire, smoke, heat and building movement. Once Intelliclad detects such a major life-threatening event, it triggers immediate reaction and automated remedies, without the need of human response or involvement, as further disclosed and set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the “Technology” or “Intelliclad - Smart Buildings”).
WHEREAS, Intelliclad has among its technological features, the Smart Hydrant Smart Building external fire hydrant. This makes possible the extinguishment of fire, without the necessity of humans going to the particular site and applying water, which may be impossible in the case of tall buildings.

WHEREAS, Intelliclad has among its technological features, the EE-POD -Emergency Evacuation PODS Emergency Exit Fire Pods for tall buildings. This makes possible the safe exit, even from the top floor of tall buildings, without having to navigate a more conventional exit from the building, which may be impossible in the case of tall buildings.
WHEREAS, the Licensor and the Developer, including through their respective affiliates and principals, have utilized the Internet Of Things (IOT) and pioneered smart sensor technologies, whose core competency is innovative design and technological, robust solutions for complex scientific and industrial problems, including as applied to Intelliclad - Smart Buildings.
WHEREAS, the Licensor and the Developer, including through their respective affiliates and principals, have already developed a number of ground-breaking products focused on key issues affecting the energy, water, environment and infrastructure sectors, solving problems previously considered insurmountable, which has enabled them to win several prestigious awards as well as considerable interest from major corporations.
WHEREAS, the Licensor and the Developer, including through their respective affiliates and principals, will remain independent with a laser-focus on realizing its vision of delivering smart, cost-effective solutions for its partners, including the Licensee.
WHEREAS, a part of the Technology, employs the use of the Licensor’s lead product, Datatecnics Corporation, Ltd., CIPPS® (Critical Infrastructure Pipeline Protection System), previously assigned to the Developer, which is currently undergoing further product development from a technology status to product in partnership with United Utilities, UK’s leading water services company, Radius Pipes, a leading pipeline manufacture and CPI (Centre for Process Innovation) a government funded R&D facility with almost 1000 scientists and experts in OPE (Organic Printed Electronics), all of which and all of whom will be available with regard to the development of the Technology, including the Licensor, as this License contemplates the engagement of the services of the Developer, Datatecnics Corporation, Ltd., for the further development of the Technology, including with the use of CIPPS® and of CIPS™, in connection with the Technology.
WHEREAS, the Developer, Datatecnics Corporation Ltd., in partnership with its customer, United Utilities is further developing and implementing CIPPS®, as a finished product, i.e. smart micro sensors embedded within the pipeline walls, replacing its infrastructure of existing pipes in the United Kingdom, using CIPPS® smart pipes. This project is supported with partial funding from Innovate UK, a UK government body which supports disruptive innovation. The production collaboration partners are, Datatecnics Corporation ltd (the lead), Radius Systems (partner) and CPI (Centre for Process Innovation) based in Teesside UK (the contractor).

WHEREAS, Datatecnics was the first company to file for patents for “intelligent” pipes through the use of printed electronics with nano/micro sensors embedded within pipeline walls for monitoring pipeline integrity. Product CIPPS® technology. CIPPS® technology facilitates the transformation of dumb, inert plastic or metal surfaces into completely intelligent autonomous self-thinking systems, susceptible to monitoring. A self-managing predictive asset management system, CIPPS® is designed to predict failure-point in advance to maintain operational resiliency.
WHEREAS, the Licensor and Datatecnics Corporation, Ltd., a company controlled by the Licensor, have received several prestigious awards for innovation and contribution to industry. CIPPS® sensor technologies has taken Datatecnics Corporation, Ltd. almost 7 years to develop. Now, in partnership with UK’s largest water utility operator and collaboration with Radius Systems a leading pipe manufacture the end product is being developed for launch to the global market in 2020.
WHEREAS, Datatecnics Corporation, Ltd. has been partnering with the following entities in the further development of CIPPS®:
| 1. | Innovate UK is the part of UK government body that provides funding through grants for specialized projects. They have awarded us a grant for this project. |
|
|
|
| 2. | United Utilities are the UK’s largest water company, they are our first major customer and support partner. We have already completed extensive live field tests with them last year. |
|
|
|
| 3. | Radius Pipes are a leading global pipe manufacturer, they are one of our project collaboration partners, we will give them the finished CIPPS sensors, they will then embed them within the pipes to make the finished product. |
|
|
|
| 4. | CPI is a UK Government funded R&D facility that specializes in PE (Printed Electronics), this is where we do our R&D and product development. CPI has dedicated a portion of its facility for the Developer’s endeavors. |
WHEREAS, this License contemplates a limited, at most, license for CIPPS® and for CIPS™, from the Developer, Datatecnics Corporation, Ltd., in connection with the exploitation of the Technology for sub component IP that has been tailored for smart wall applications for sensing of physical or digital breaches.
