 2.1
Delivery. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and upon receipt by AOS of Warrants, AOS shall deliver the Licensed Technology, including documentation and training, in such form and manner as reasonably determined by AOS on
a date mutually agreed by the parties. 
 2.2 License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, AOS
hereby grants to APM a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free and fully paid-up license to copy, use, modify and create derivative works of the: 
 (a) Group I Technology at APM’s facilities in China to provide Packaging Services to APM’s customers in general;
