RECITALS

 

	 	
			A.

				
			The Company is currently engaged in the business of selling, designing, and installing solar photovoltaic power generation, energy storage in the form of managed battery systems, and energy use management technologies to provide clients long term savings, predictability, and control of their energy costs (collectively, the “Services” or the “Service Business”).

			

 

	 	
			B.

				
			The Company is in the process of acquiring a new biotechnology business (the “New Business”).

			

 

	 	
			C.

				
			While the Company is in the process of acquiring the New Business, the Company desires to transition from providing the Services directly to its customers to marketing the Services to customers (“Customers”) and referring those Customers to the Service Provider or engaging Service Provider to provide the Services to Customer on behalf of the Company.

			

 

	 	
			D.

				
			The Service Provider desires to provide the Services to Customers referred to it by the Company.

			

 

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, the parties to this Agreement do hereby promise and agree as follows:

 

1.         Referral of Customers to Service Provider. The Company hereby agrees to refer to or engage the Service Provider for, on an exclusive basis, any Customer who desires to receive the Services. The Company expressly authorizes the Service Provider to engage in the business of providing Services for the Customers and for any other customers obtained by the Service Provider from any other source, even if, as a result, the Service Provider competes directly or indirectly with the Company.

 

2.         Transfer of Existing Service Contracts to Service Provider. As agreed to by the parties, the Company will transfer existing Service contracts (“Existing Contracts”), together with the cash flows and pre-paids therefrom, to the Service Provider so that the Service Provider may complete the delivery of the Services to the Customers under the Existing Contracts. In assuming such Existing Contracts, the Service Provider also agrees to assume the responsibility for the delivery of Service commitments, all costs, and warranty provisions, which will be the consideration conferred by the Service Provider for the assignments. To the extent of its referral services described in Section 3 of this Agreement, the Company will continue to be engaged in the Service Business with the Service Provider during the term of this Agreement.

3.         Compensation to Company. In consideration for the Company referring Customers to the Service Provider or engaging Service Provider to provide Services to Customers on behalf of the Company on an exclusive basis (i.e., only to the Service Provider) under this Agreement, the Service Provider will pay a fee to the Company in an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the gross amount paid by each Customer to the Service Provider pursuant to a sales contract for the Services (the “Referral Fee”), not including the Existing Contracts being assigned to the Service Provider by the Company pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement. With respect to each Customer contract, the Referral Fee will be payable by the Service Provider to the Company within thirty (30) days after the completion, and receipt of final payments by Service Provider, of such Customer contract.

 

4.         Term of Agreement. This Agreement will commence on the date first above written and will terminate on the first to occur of (i) the mutual written agreement of the Service Provider and the Company to terminate this Agreement, (ii) a material breach of this Agreement by one party and failure of that party to cure such breach within 10 days after receipt of written notice from the other party of the allegation of the breach, (iii) 45 days after the Effective Date, within 10 days of written notice from one party to the other parties of its election to terminate this Agreement for any reason or no reason, or (iv) one year after the Effective Date. During the term of this Agreement and until a date two years after the Company acquires the New Business, it will not engage in the Service Business except as specifically described in this Agreement.

 

5.         Independent Contractor Status. Servicer is an independent contractor in the performance of the Services and shall determine the method, details and means of performing the Services, subject to the conditions and limitations of this Agreement.
