		13.	QUADRISE CANADA FEES AND SFOTM COSTS: SFOTM manufacturing fee charged
by Quadrise Canada shall be based on monthly input barrels of hydrocarbons into SMU and manufactured into SFOTM. The
actual fee per barrel of SFOTM is dependent on the type of feedstock and water used which impacts the chemical concentration.
At 500 barrels per day average monthly input of hydrocarbons, it is estimated, based on clean water and bitumen type feedstock,
the cost will be approximately $9.00 barrel of hydrocarbon input, or $6.30 per barrel of SFOTM. If Petrosonic uses a
vacuum residue or asphaltenes feedstock, the charges will increase, due to a different chemical type and higher chemical concentrations
required. The volumes throughput will have an effect on the cost per barrel of SFOTM because the fixed cost component.
As the volume of the throughput increases above 1000 barrels per day, the portion of the fixed costs will decrease and the
amount of the fee on the barrel basis charged should be lower than $9.00 per barrel.



  


		14.	INVOICES, PAYMENT AND ACCOUNTING; Quadrise Canada' monthly charges for manufacturing SFOTM
will be based on $9.00 per barrel of hydrocarbon input, metered at the mill input flange. The $9.00 per barrel charge includes
mill rental, insurance, taxes, supplies, accounting, telephone, blend master and maintenance of QCC equipment, chemicals, Akzo
Nobel royalty, Worley Parsons royalty, and QCC overhead. Quadrise Canada shall provide Petrosonic with a monthly statement setting
out the details of hydrocarbon throughput. Payment is due within 30 days. The chemical costs shall be invoiced and paid in advance
of the chemicals being ordered. All other items shall be billed at the end of each month.



  


		15.	EXCLUSIVITY: Quadrise Canada shall not manufacture SFO for any other parties in Albania,
without the written permission of Petrosonic.



 


		16.	PREFERRED STATUS OF PETROSONIC: In consideration of Petrosonic being a pioneer in SFOTM
projects in Albania, Quadrise Canada is prepared to work with Petrosonic on terms acceptable to both parties for other applications
that may reduce costs or enhance the value of Petrosonic’ s Albanian projects. These applications may include SFOTM
fuelled diesel engines, transportation of hydrocarbons using SFOTM technology, and use of waste hydrocarbons in the
manufacture of SFOTM.
