certain patent filing fees on behalf of the Company. Mr. DeStefano received a Collateral Pledge Agreement against the loan, whereby
the pending patents would be issued to him upon default of the Note. The Note is now is default and Parties want to resolve the
transfer of pending patents by entering into this Settlement Agreement.
