THE License


 


Section 2.1.            
Grant of the License. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, with effect from
the closing (the “Closing”), the Licensor hereby grants to Licensee a Non-Exclusive License of the Entsorgafin Technology
(the “License”) to design, construct, build and install the Plant and use the process(es) or method(s) covered by the
Patent exclusively in connection with, and limited to, the Project. So long as Licensee is not in default with respect to any provision
of this Agreement, Licensor will not assert the Patent to prevent Licensee from designing, constructing, building and installing
the Plant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties agree that in case the Licensee develops
an alternative facility (i.e., a facility other than the Plant) in the Exclusive Territory (as defined in the Development
Agreement) prior to the completion of the Plant, the Licensee may assign the License for the purpose of such alternative facility;
additionally, if the final design capacity of the first facility is less than 165,000 tons per year, the Licensee will be permitted
to credit any unused license fee to the next facility developed by Licensee until such time that the entire 165,000 tons per year
of the license fee is fully utilized.


 


Section 2.2.            
Use of the Entsorgafin Technology. In connection with the Project, Licensee shall not (and shall cause that any of
its Affiliates shall not), directly or indirectly, design, procure, construct, make, import, operate and use any mechanical biological
waste treatment plant which encompasses, is based upon or contemplates the use of technology and know-how different from Entsorgafin
Technology, other than equipment, components or software for the Plant that are not supplied by Licensor (and/or its Affiliates)
in accordance with the Plant Supply Agreement (as defined in the Development Agreement) that, pursuant to the terms and conditions
of the Development Agreement, will be negotiated and entered into by the Parties as soon as the general technical details of the
Plant will be determined and conditioned upon receipt of the necessary permitting, it being understood that Licensee and Parent
are knowledgeable with the general supply terms and conditions applied by Licensor and/or its Affiliates. In respect of any other
component required for the Plant, Licensee shall consult Licensor, who (or any of its Affiliates) shall be the preferred supplier
in respect of such components provided that Licensor’s components are of sufficient quality, and the prices are competitive,
for the Project. For the avoidance of doubt, Licensee is not granted any right to, and shall not, directly or indirectly, exploit
the Patent or the Know-how by designing, procuring, constructing, making, operating, using or selling any plant other than the
Plant in connection with any project other than the Project or license or authorize any third party to do so.

this Agreement shall be construed to grant Licensee any additional rights or license to any trademark, trade name, certification
mark, service mark, domain name, product name, logo, patent, technical information, or copyright now or hereafter owned by Licensor,
other than as specified in the Agreement. With exclusive reference to the License granted to Licensee under this Agreement, all
rights not granted to Licensee are reserved to Licensor. Licensee: (a) shall not do any act or thing which prejudices, misappropriates,
or impairs the rights of Licensor with respect to the Entsorgafin Technology; (b) except for the License granted hereunder, will
never represent that it has any right, title, or interest in or to Entsorgafin Technology or in any application or registration
for them; (c) shall not use (except as expressly permitted hereunder), register or attempt to register any Entsorgafin Technology,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, domain names, metatags, meta descriptors, or electronic mail (e-mail) addresses,
server names, search-engine markers, that are identical to, or confusingly similar to or referencing Entsorgafin Technology, or
any other patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names or domain names of Licensor; and (d) shall employ symbols and/or words
in connection with its use of Entsorgafin Technology that identify Licensee as the user of Entsorgafin Technology.


 


Section 2.4.            
Approval. In so far the use of the Entsorgafin Technology in the Territory requires the consent or approval of any
Regulatory Body or official body of the Government of the Territory or any part thereof, the parties shall each use their respective
best efforts to obtain any approvals promptly.


 


Section 2.5.            
Royalty payment. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, in consideration of any
and all the rights granted by Licensor to Licensee under this Agreement, Licensee shall pay to Licensor as “One Time License
Fee” as set forth in Schedule B of the Development Agreement the amount of Six Million Nineteen Thousand Two Hundred Dollars
($6,019,200) (the “License Fee”) which has been determined as follows:


 


		-	Design Capacity (DC) = 165,000 tons per year;



 


		-	License Fee = (DC*3.20*10) *114%; (165,000*3.20*10) *114% = $6,019,200.



 


As a portion of the
License Fee, Licensee and/or Parent shall pay the Italian and United States withholding taxes and like kind taxes of the Licensor
to the respective Italian and United States taxing authorities up to a maximum amount of Eight Hundred Thirty Nine Thousand Six
Hundred Seventy Eight Dollars and Forty Cents ($839,678.40) (the “Maximum Tax Payment”) of which Four Hundred Eighty
One Thousand Five Hundred Thirty Six Dollars ($481,536.00) (the “Initial Tax Payment”) shall be paid in cash no later
than December 20, 2017 and Three Hundred Fifty Eight Thousand One Hundred Forty Two Dollars and Forty Cents ($358,142.40) (the
“Future Tax Payment”) shall be paid in cash at a future date not to be later than March 31, 2018, as per this Agreement.


 


Licensee shall pay
Licensor the balance of the License Fee of Five Million One Hundred Seventy Nine Thousand Five Hundred Twenty One Dollars and Sixty
Cents ($5,179,521.60) (the “Stock Consideration Fee”) at Closing. The Stock Consideration Fee shall be paid by Licensee
and Parent to Licensor in consideration for the grant of the License in 1,035,905 shares (the “Stock Consideration”)
of Parent’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Parent Stock”) equal to the Stock License Fee divided
by the value of $5.00 per share. Parent and Licensee agree and warrant that the Stock Consideration corresponds to approximately
10.8% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Parent at the time of closing and estimates that the Stock Consideration represents
approximately 6.2% of the fully diluted shares of Parent at the time of closing.

The Stock Consideration
shall be subject to a Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B” (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”) to be entered into by the parties thereto at the Closing Date. Licensor expects and assumes that the Stock
Consideration shall be registered or become freely tradable (and in any case fully equivalent and fungible with the shares owned,
directly or indirectly, by Frank E. Celli) by the end of the second anniversary of the Closing Date.


 


Licensee and Parent
shall provide Licensor with any document or other relevant tax certification in relation to withholding taxes paid by the Licensee

Article

TAX MATTERS


 


Section 10.1.         
Taxation. The parties intend that the transactions set forth in this Agreement are intended to qualify as a payment
pursuant to Article 12 of the United States-Italy Income and Capital Tax Convention, effective as of January 1, 2010.


 


Section 10.2.         
Tax Withholding Expenses. At the Closing, Licensee or Parent shall withhold from the License Fee the Maximum Tax
Payment to be remitted to the Italian and/or United States taxing authorities, the tax amounts, addresses and/or wire instructions
of such items to be provided to the Licensee by the Closing. Licensee will pay the Future Tax Payment in US dollar amounts (or
equivalent in Euros) for taxes actually due above the Initial Tax Payment for the grant of the License with the total sum of the
Licensee’s and Parent’s obligation not in any event to exceed for both the Initial Tax Payment and the Future Tax Payment,
the Maximum Tax Payment of Eight Hundred Thirty-Nine Thousand Six Hundred Seventy Eight Dollars and Forty Cents ($839,678.40).
In the event the Italian or United States taxation authorities determine that the Initial Tax Payment is insufficient to pay Licensor’s
actual withholding amount (the “Actual Tax Fee”), Licensor must provide a written demand, which shall include the amount
of the payment demand (“Tax Shortfall”), the entity making the demand, and the address to pay such entity on or before
May 31, 2018 (the “Tax Demand Notification”). Licensee shall pay the appropriate tax authority an additional amount
in cash equal to the Tax Shortfall but in no event shall such payment, including the Initial Tax Payment, exceed the Maximum Tax
Payment. If the Licensee/Parent is not required by the Italian or United States taxing authorities to pay an amount equal to the
Maximum Tax Payment, Licensee/Parent shall increase the number of shares of the stock consideration to the Licensor to equal the
License Fee, valued as of the date of the Closing.


 


Section 10.3.         
Tax Payment Guaranty. If the Shortfall Payment, in an amount when added to the Initial Tax Payment, is less than
or equal to the Maximum Tax Payment, and if it is not paid by the Licensee or Parent to the respective taxing authorities on or
before May 31, 2018, without prejudice to any additional remedy available to Licensor, the amount unpaid shall be subject to a
penalty fee equal to 25% per year of the outstanding balance due, until the payment is received by the Licensor or the respective
taxing authorities AND, Licensee shall not be permitted to utilize the License until the applicable payment, including all accrued
penalties, is paid to Licensor or the respective taxing authority. Upon receipt of a Tax Demand Notification, the Licensee and
Parent, shall have ten (10) days to provide a written objection to the Licensor.


 


Section 10.4.         
Release; Indemnification. Upon the earlier of May 31, 2018 or the payment of the Initial Tax Payment and the Tax
Shortfall in an amount not to exceed the Maximum Tax Payment, each of Licensor and Licensee shall bear, pay and discharge its respective
Italian, United States or other tax charges and liabilities imposed upon each of them in relation to the License. This provision
shall survive the Closing.

Section 11.5.         
Third-Party Claim Indemnification Procedures.


 


		(a)	In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying party hereunder (an “Indemnifying
Party”) may have liability to any indemnified party hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), other than those relating
to taxes (which are the subject of Article X), is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third
party (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, following such Indemnified Party’s receipt
of a Third-Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party of such Third-Party Claim, describe the breach or inaccuracy and other material
facts and circumstances upon which such claim is based and the estimated amount of losses involved, in each case, in reasonable
detail in light of the facts then known to the Indemnified Party (a “Claim Notice”); provided that the failure
to timely give, or defect in the information contained in, a Claim Notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations
hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually and materially prejudiced by such failure.
Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly following the Indemnified Party’s receipt
thereof, copies of all written notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party from such third
party relating to the Third-Party Claim.

and adequate defense of a Third-Party Claim, including by providing reasonable access, subject to reasonable privilege or confidentiality
concerns, to each other’s relevant books and records, and employees. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon
the Indemnifying Party’s request, but subject to reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns) the provision to the Indemnifying
Party of Books and Records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and making employees and Representatives
available on a mutually convenient basis during normal business hours to provide additional information and explanation of any
material provided hereunder at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use reasonable
commercial efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Law), and to cause all communications
among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client
or work-product privileges at the cost of the Indemnifying Party.



 


		(c)	This Section 11.5 shall not apply with respect to any tax matter and the provisions of Article
X shall apply to any tax matter instead.



 


Section 11.6.         
Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article XI to the contrary, an Indemnified Party shall
not be entitled to indemnification with respect to any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement
(i) unless the Damages sustained, suffered or incurred for which the Indemnifying Party would be liable by reason of any single
breach or series of related breaches exceeds an amount equal to $25,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which event the
Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the amount of all Damages in excess of the Threshold Amount, subject to indemnification
with respect to any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Article XI to the contrary, the aggregate maximum liability of the Licensor for any inaccuracy of any representation or
warranty made in this Agreement and for any losses that may become due under, and for any matters arising out of or in connection

the Agreement or any and/or all of the Ancillary Agreements shall not exceed, in the aggregate, an amount equal to $1,000,000 (the
“Cap”). Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict in any manner any rights or remedies that (i) any party
has, or might have, at Law, in equity or otherwise, against any other Person, based on fraud, or (ii) any party has, or might have,
at Law, in equity or otherwise, against any other party based on any breach of a covenant of the Development Agreement (the “Excluded
Claims”).

Section 15.2.         
Confidentiality. Neither party hereto (“Recipient Party”) shall during the life of this Agreement or
thereafter disclose to any person or use for any purpose any information obtained from the other (“Disclosing Party”)
in connection with, or pursuant to, this Agreement or the Project including (but not limited to) the Entsorgafin Technology and
any information relating to the Entsorgafin Technology. The Recipient Party shall exercise all precautions reasonably normal in
the industry to keep such information secret and to minimize the risk of unauthorized disclosure or use by its employees and officers
of information received from the disclosing party provided, however, that the recipient party may disclose such information to:
(i) Project funders and prospective Project funders who require such disclosure (but only to the extent necessary) where bona
fide necessary in the context of their due diligence for the evaluation of Entsorgafin Technology and participation in the
funding; (ii) its responsible officers and employees only to the extent that such disclosure is essential to the design, making,
operating the Plant; provided, further that in case the persons listed in Section 15.2. (i) are not required to execute confidentiality
agreements with the disclosing party to the extent they are bound by confidentiality obligations pursuant to their respective agreements
with the relevant employer and that such confidentiality obligations have a content substantially equivalent to the obligations
set out in this Section. The restrictions on use and disclosure of information under this Section shall not apply to any information
which the Recipient Party can prove: (i) was already known to it prior to its receipt thereof from the disclosing party; or (ii)
was subsequently disclosed to it lawfully by a third party who did not obtain the same (whether directly or indirectly) from the
Disclosing Party; or (iii) was in the public domain at the time of receipt by the recipient party or has subsequently entered into
the public domain other than by reason of the breach of the provisions of this Section or any obligation of confidentiality owed
to the disclosing party; or (iv) was required to be disclosed by law or the rule or procedures of a relevant recognized investment
exchange. Upon written consent of the Licensor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Licensee may disclose
information relating to the Plant to any Regulatory Body, official body or department whether in the Territory or in any other
country for the purpose of enabling the Licensee to obtain confirmation that such Plant is acceptable or suitable for use in waste
treatment. At the Licensee’s expense the Licensor undertakes to provide such assistance as the Licensee or any such Regulatory
Body or other official body or department may reasonably require in the investigation by them as to such suitability or acceptability.


 


Section 15.3.         
Relationship of parties. Nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as establishing or implying any partnership
or joint venture between the parties, or as appointing any party as agent of any other party. No party shall hold out any other
party as its partner or joint venturer. Except, and to the extent, that this Agreement expressly states otherwise, no party may,
incur any expenses or negotiate on behalf of any other party or commit any other Party in any way to any person without that other
Party’s prior written consent.

Section 15.4.         
Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver
is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Licensee and the Licensor, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against
whom such waiver is intended to be effective. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.


 


Section
15.5.          No
Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
only. The Licensee shall not assign, sub-contract or sub-license any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement without
the prior written consent of Licensor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon full and final payment of the Stock Purchase Price and
any withholding taxes as set forth herein (“Final Payment”), the Licensee shall have the absolute right, without Licensor’s
consent, to sub-license, assign or transfer its rights on the Entsorgafin Technology to any Subsidiary, Affiliate or joint venture
company designated as ProjectCo pursuant to the Development Agreement and developing a plant alternative to the Plant in the Exclusive
Territory provided the total Project design capacity (calculated as the sum of the capacity of the Plant and any alternative plant)
does not exceed 165,000 tons per year; or in the event the Licensee or Parent disposes of all or substantially all of its business
or assets to any person, but without prejudice to the obligations of Licensee pursuant to this Agreement and conditional upon the
transferee entering into and acceding to this Agreement and assuming any obligation set forth hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no transfer, assignment or sub-license whatsoever shall be made by Licensee to any Affiliate, joint-venture or other parties which
are, or are participated in any manner whatsoever, either directly or indirectly, by any competitor of the Licensor The Licensee
will deliver the Licensor a 15 business day prior written notice before sub-licensing, assigning or transferring its rights to
the Entsorgafin Technology pursuant to the provisions set out above. All assignments, transfers or sublicenses will require compliance
with all obligations imposed on Licensee under this Technology License Agreement, and each obligation of Licensee will be deemed
to include an identical obligation by Licensee’s sublicensees, assignee or transferee and each transfer, assignment or sublicense
will name Licensor as a third party beneficiary of that assignment or sublicense with the right to directly enforce any such obligation
against the sublicensee, transferee or assignee. The assignment, transfer or sublicense agreement will specifically state that
it is not assignable by the sublicensee, assignee or transferee. 


 


Section 15.6.         
Entire Agreement; Inconsistency. Save for the parties’ rights under the Development Agreement which will remain
in force and effect, this Agreement (including all Schedules and Appendices hereto) and the Ancillary Agreements contain the entire
agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed according to
their fair meaning and neither for nor against any party hereto irrespective of which party caused such provisions to be drafted.
Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it has been represented by an attorney in connection with the preparation and execution
of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.


 


Section 15.7.         
Satisfaction of Obligations. Any obligation of any party to any other under this Agreement, that is performed, satisfied
or fulfilled completely by an Affiliate of such party shall be deemed to have been performed, satisfied or fulfilled by such party.


 


Section 15.8.         
Remedies. In the event of a default under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, the non-breaching party may
proceed to protect and enforce its rights by a suit for damages, a suit in equity, an action at law or other appropriate proceeding,
whether for specific performance, or for an injunction against a violation of any terms hereof or thereof or in aid of the exercise
of any right, power or remedy granted thereby or by law, equity, statute or otherwise. The foregoing shall include, but shall not
be limited to, allowance for recovery by the aggrieved party of all of its fees and expenses and disbursements incurred by it in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in the Ancillary Agreements, including, without limitation, the reasonable
fees and expenses of its counsel, accountants, agents and representatives employed by it. No course of dealing and no delay on
the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such party's

Section 15.9.         
Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated

Section 15.10.     
Schedules. The disclosure of any matter, or reference to any Contract, in any Schedule to this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a disclosure of such matter or Contract for all purposes of this Agreement to which such matter or Contract would
reasonably be expected to apply from the face of the disclosure set forth on such schedule, but shall not be deemed to constitute
an admission by Licensee or Licensor or to otherwise imply that any such matter or Contract is material for the purposes of this
Agreement and shall not affect the interpretation of such term for the purposes of this Agreement. In particular, (a) certain matters
may be disclosed on the Schedules that may not be required to be disclosed because of certain minimum thresholds or materiality
standards set forth in this Agreement, (b) the disclosure of any such matter does not mean that it meets or surpasses any such
minimum thresholds or materiality standards and (c) no disclosure in the Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation
of any Contract or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually
occurred. In no event shall the listing of such matters in any Schedule be deemed or interpreted to expand the scope of Licensor’s
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Each Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to specific
provisions of the Agreement and does not constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations, warranties or
covenants of Licensee or Licensor or their respective Affiliates, except as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Regardless
of the existence or absence of cross-references, the disclosure of any matter in any Schedule shall be deemed to be a disclosure
for purposes of this Agreement and each Schedule to the extent that the relevance of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on
its face. The section headings in the Schedules are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect
the meaning or interpretation of any information disclosed herein or any provision of this Agreement. All attachments to the Schedules
are incorporated by reference into the Schedule in which they are directly referenced.

Agreement or the transactions contained in or contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, exclusively in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any New York State court sitting in New York County (together with
the appellate courts thereof, the “Chosen Courts”), and solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement
or the transactions that are the subject of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Chosen Courts,
(iii) waives any objection that the Chosen Courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over either party hereto,
(iv) agrees that service of process upon such party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance
with Section 15.1 of this Agreement, although nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect the right to serve process in any
other manner permitted by Law and (v) agrees not to seek a transfer of venue on the basis that another forum is more convenient.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) nothing in this Section 15.11 shall prohibit any party from seeking or obtaining
orders for conservatory or interim relief from any court of competent jurisdiction and (y) each party hereto agrees that any judgment
issued by a Chosen Court may be recognized, recorded, registered or enforced in any jurisdiction in the world and waives any and

Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of
any provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement,
or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision
shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid
or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances
