STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL







Dear Sirs:







This letter serves as a binding letter of intent between R and D USA, LLC a Nebraska Limited Liability Company d/b/a Scribner Natural Products (collectively "we" or the "Investor") and Sense Technologies, Inc. ( "the Company" or “Sense”), a corporation established under the laws of British Columbia, Canada and having a place of business at 2535 N. Carleton Avenue, Grand Island, Nebraska, United States whereby the Investor hereby proposes to the company to acquire a portion of the issued share capital in the Company, by way of subscription of new shares and/or (if thought desirable) derivative instruments convertible into shares of the Company, together with all rights, benefits and interest thereof or arising therefrom or in connection thereto, and free from liens, charges, encumbrances or third party rights, in consideration for which we shall transfer and assign all of our beneficial interests ("Business Interests") in Scribner's' soy meal and soy oil products and Soy non-GMO products, certified Soy organic products, refined Soy oils, agricultural Soy oils, and other related Soy Based specialty fertilizer crop products, including all intellectual property, the last being inclusive of all present and future patents and/or patent applications of Scribner’s Soy Based Products .







1.   Structure.  At present, we are structuring the transaction as a sale of the business assets and interests to the Company, in consideration for which the Company shall raise $1,000,000 for the purpose of working capital for the soybean processing mill, and assist with acquiring an $800,000 real estate, equipment loan and working capital loan to settle all accounts with current lien holders for the facility and equipment located at 137 Pebble St. Scribner, NE 68057, loan and issue and allot to the Investor, or as we direct, (i) common shares and (ii) convertible preferred shares, which shares will be identical to the common shares of the Company except that they will have a conversion feature permitting the holder of such shares to convert them into an aggregate number of common shares.  Such process will commence at the date of the signing of this agreement. The shares will be issued in two tiers of 1,000,000 common shares to each David Dennis and Richard Bell or their respective assignees. 1,000,000 shares split between them upon signing this agreement and 1,000,000 split between them upon getting the plant in Scribner, Nebraska, to be currently producing products.  In addition there will be $7,000,000 in Preferred convertible shares in the quantity of 700,000 preferred shares that will be convertible at 20 common shares to one preferred share to result in 14 million shares of common stock, and will have voting rights of that many shares of common stock whether the shares have been converted or not.  The common preferred convertible shares may be issued to more than one assigned entity or person as designated by David Dennis and Richard Bell. The Execution of this transition will in no way be impeded by the Company. We may, however, opt for another form of transaction, based upon a review of the proposed tax, financial, corporate and legal structures, and other legitimate considerations of the Investor (and such transaction, in any form whatsoever, being referred to herein as an "acquisition").  No commissions or investment fees will be paid regarding this transaction. In addition upon signing of this agreement by all parties, Richard W. Bell and David E. Dennis will be appointed to the Board of Sense Technologies, Inc., and will each be given the title of Executive Vice President or other title as determined by the board of the company and/or Bruce Schreiner.







2.   Transition Period.  Upon your execution of this Agreement, During the Transition Period (Expected to take 4 weeks), the Company will allow us, the investor, and our agents, lawyers, accountants and advisors ("Advisors") full and complete access to the Company's books, records, information and data relating to the business affairs, financial legal, structural and regulatory conditions of the Company and its current business of developing and marketing automotive backing awareness products (Existing Company Business").
