  ***Confidential
  treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed
  with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Omitted portions have been
  filed separately with the Commission. Statement of Warranty Product: Smith
  Link Remote Device & Harness Assembly Effective Date: 31/01/2011 Warranty
  Period: 5 Years (from date of dispatch) All products manufactured by or for
  Sensor-Technik UK will be warranted for a period of 5 years from date of
  dispatch to Smith Electric Vehicles. This warranty covers the following
  products: . TAD-290 Remote Device & firmware . Remote Device Cable Loom
  Assembly . Design of device, firmware and cable loom assembly The following
  conditions apply to this warranty: 1. The hardware warranty only applies to
  devices manufactured by TAD Electronics for Sensor-Technik UK and cable loom
  assemblies manufactured by Sensor-Technik UK for the Smith Link Application.
  2. This warranty also covers the software supplied with the device with the
  following restrictions: a. The warranty is only applicable if the software is
  supported and maintained by TAD Electronics. b. If the software is supported
  and maintained by someone other than TAD Electronics, Sensor-Technik UK will
  warrant the design only. c. If changes are made, without authorisation from
  Sensor-Technik UK, then the design warranty will be void. 3. If suppliers
  other than TAD Electronics (for devices) and Sensor-Technik UK (Cable looms)
  are used, Sensor-Technik UK will provide a warranty for the design only with
  the following conditions: a. If alternative suppliers are to be used,
  Sensor-Technik UK will need to authorise any change, removal or adjustment of
  components. Failure to do so will void the design warranty. b. If an
  alternative supplier deviates, without authorisation from Sensor-Technik UK,
  from the assembly instructions supplied by Sensor-Technik UK, the design
  warranty will be void. 4. If goods are returned to Sensor-Technik UK under
  warranty and found with no fault, Sensor-Technik UK reserves the right to
  invoice Smith Electric Vehicles for any and all charges incurred and will
  return the goods to Smith Electric Vehicles, the cost of which is to be
  covered by Smith Electric Vehicles. 5. Sensor-Technik UK will make every
  effort to repair and return an original device or cable loom. In the event
  that a repair is not possible or feasible, like-for-like replacements will be
  supplied. 6. Any returns from Smith Electric Vehicles should be accompanied
  by a complete RMA form (available on request from Sensor-Technik UK). Returns
  without a complete RMA form may take longer to complete and may incur
  processing charges. 7. If the reason for return is to bring early hardware
  versions up to the present iteration, Sensor- Technik UK may levy a charge to
  cover the costs of labour involved when applicable. 8. Sensor-Technik UK maintains
  a complete list of all devices and systems dispatched and will use this list
  when assessing any warranty claims. This list is automatically updated and
  sent to the Smith Electric Vehicles Telemetry Team with each shipment of
  devices and is also available on request. 9. This warranty only covers
  products supplied for Smith Link, any other products supplied by Sensor-
  Technik UK to Smith Electric Vehicles are not subject to the conditions of
  this warranty. For Sensor-Technik UK Mark Wood General Manager –

  CONFIDENTIALITY . This specification is subject to the terms as defined
  within the SEV heads of terms and all subsequent contracts made available to
  Sensor Tecknik. 1.2 PURPOSE . The Product Design Specification is intended to
  clearly define the technical requirements and responsibilities which are to
  be used by the project in the development of the systems, sub- systems and
  components of the Telematics Project. Due to legacy product complexity and
  timing challenges a thorough and complete set of information such as
  information protocols is beyond the scope of this and any single document.
  Such technical specifics are supplied in separate documents. See Appendices
  for further information. 1.3 Scope . The scope of this document is
  compromised by the fact that full DOE data mining and report out is not yet
  fully understood. It is accepted that further NRE costs will be incurred once
  this is fully understood and if further HW development is required. Currently
  PO ref: 3/31/2010-496 covers development of all HW, SW and server
  specification up to and including Level A and B iterations. o It is envisaged
  that this specification will cover ALL aspects of the CENEX LCVPP data
  requirement (subject to satisfactory independent testing) o It is envisaged
  that this PO will cover SOME aspects of the US DOE data requirement (subject
  to satisfactory independent testing) . The Server UI, function and report out
  specification is also beyond the scope of a single document and it has been
  agreed that this will take place jointly. Verbal exchange, interaction with the
  UI and direct development is the quickest route to a finalised specification.
  1.4 PATENTS, INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, COPYRIGHTS and EXCLUSIVITY . As per
  all subsequent contracts made available to Sensor Technik.

  The supervision of the development of the Telematics project is the
  responsibility of the SEV Project team. . The RASIC Section defines the
  allocation of activities between the suppliers and SEV. . It is the
  responsibility of the supplier to manage and monitor the progress of
  responsible tasks and to act to protect the program timing when necessary.
  Together with Smith the Supplier must support and maintain an up to date
  program log of all actions, planning, costing activities and have this
  available for the project team to review periodically. Supplier project
  management resource and some supplier design resource MUST be available on
  site at SEV UK, Washington as and when the project requires. 2.2 Organisation

  responsibilities are shown in the RASIC. 2.4.1 Change Management . All
  changes during the project are subject to the approval of SEV through the
  Project meeting forum. If SEV request it, the supplier is to confirm the
  effects of any change with the submission of Project Change request. A part
  life cycle record (design history, modification record) is to be maintained
  by the supplier. All amendments including those relating to the production
