 As a
condition precedent to the license and rights granted by BI to Instantel under this Agreement, Instantel shall pay BI as follows: 
  

	 	3.1.1	Fixed License Fees of: 

  

	 	3.1.1.1	Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) immediately on the Effective Date of this Agreement; 

  

 5 

	 	3.1.1.2	Subject to paragraph 7.2, Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) on or before the earlier of: 

  

	 	(i)	the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the date of the First Sale; and 

  

	 	3.1.2	Subject to paragraph 7.2, a running royalty of $2.00 for each Licensed Product which is made, used, leased or sold by Instantel or its sublicensees in any country in the
world in which patent protection is enjoyed pursuant to the BI Patent. 

  

	 	3.2	Payment of Running Royalty and Reporting. 

 The
running royalty required by subparagraph 3.1.2 above shall be calculated and paid on a calendar quarter [every three (3) months] in arrears from each and every calendar quarter commencing not later than three (3) months after the date of
the First Sale. Instantel shall submit payments of the running royalty to BI by check drawn on a chartered bank together with an accurate report on the number of Licensed Products sold or leased within the calendar quarter for which payment is being
made, such report and payment to be made to BI within Fifteen (15) days of the end of each calendar quarter. 
  

	 	3.3	Minimum Running Royalties. 

 The minimum running

	 Third Year

	 Fourth Year

	 Fifth and subsequent years
	  	$	0
		  	 	 

 In the event that there are insufficient sales of licensed product to maintain the specified
minimum running royalties, Instantel shall have the right to make up the difference by fulfilling the minimum royalty amount above and maintain its exclusive use of the license. 
  

 6 

 In the event that the minimum running royalty is not paid in any one (1) year period, then from that
date, the license granted to Instantel by BI in subparagraph 2.1.2 shall cease to be exclusive and shall become non-exclusive. 
  

	 	3.4	Verification. 

 At any time during the term of this
Agreement BI may, at its own expense, employ an independent firm of chartered accountants to audit and verify the accuracy of the reports submitted by Instantel pursuant to paragraph 3.2 and for such purpose Instantel will afford BI and its
representatives access at all reasonable times to examine all such books of account and records and all other documents and material in Instantel’s possession or under its control, relating to the calculation of the running royalty for the
Licensed Products. Instantel shall preserve all records relating to sale or lease of a Licensed Product intact for a period of at least five (5) years after the date of such sale or lease of a Licensed Product. The chartered or certified
accountants may disclose to BI only that information required to calculate the royalties. The chartered or certified accountants may not disclose to BI any information relating to the financial condition of Instantel. Any disclosure or report of the
chartered or certified accountants to BI must be in writing with a copy delivered concurrently to Instantel by the chartered or certified accountants. If the disclosure or report of the chartered or certified accountant reveals a deficiency of
royalties paid to BI, then Instantel shall make payment to BI of any such deficiency plus interest thereon at a rate equal to an annual rate of ten percent (10%) such payment to be made, or notice of arbitration given in accordance with
paragraph 8.3, within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice to cure the deficiency. In addition, if such audit is made necessary by the failure of Instantel to furnish the reports required by this Agreement or if an understatement or deficiency
in payment of the running royalties for any period of not less than three (3) months is determined by such inspection or audit to be greater than five percent (5%), Instantel shall promptly reimburse BI for the costs of such audit, including,
without limitation, the charges of any independent accountant and for any other costs incident thereto, including, but not limited to, legal fees incurred by BI for notices, demands, negotiations, arbitration, and other legal actions relating to
such audit and to collection of such deficiency. In the event that Instantel disputes the findings of such audit, such matters of dispute may be submitted by Instantel to a national firm of chartered or certified accountants qualified to carry on
business in the State of Colorado selected by BI from a list of three such firms provided by Instantel, provided that Instantel provide such list prior to commencement of arbitration pursuant to paragraph 8.3 of this Agreement. If arbitration has
already commenced pursuant to paragraph 8.3, then resolution of the dispute will be solely within the jurisdiction of the arbitrator, who may, in his/her discretion, select such a national firm of chartered or certified accountants to perform such
audit and 

  

 7 

 
report to him/her or proceed to resolve the dispute according to applicable rules of arbitration. Except as to clerical errors the determination of such
audit shall be final and binding upon both parties and no appeal shall lie therefrom. Instantel shall permit any firm of chartered or certified accountants charged with making a settlement of matter of disagreements as aforesaid to examine whatever
books, records, financial statements and other material as may be required for such firm to make such determination. The fees and expenses of such firm shall be allocated between the parties in proportion to the degree of success achieved by the
parties respectively.

 Except
for the representation contained in paragraph 4.1.4, BI makes no representation or warranty that Instantel’s use of the BI Patent will not constitute an infringement of any existing patent or other intellectual property right in the united
States of America or anywhere else in the world. Instantel’s use of the BI Patent is at its own risk, and Instantel releases and discharges BI from any claim Instantel, or its assignees, licensees, customers, agents and any other Person
claiming through or by Instantel now or at any time in the future may have against BI relating to an infringement by Licensed Products on the rights of any other Person. 
  

	 	5.2	Indemnity From Instantel. 

  

	 	5.2.1	Instantel agrees to indemnify and hold BI harmless with respect to any proceedings or losses, claims, demands, obligations, actions and liabilities of any kind whatsoever made

BI against any such claims at Instantel’s own expense, in good faith, and with due diligence. BI shall cooperate with Instantel and its attorneys in any proceedings with respect to any such claims at Instantel’s expense. In the event BI
settles any claim without Instantel’s approval or permits default judgment to be signed against BI without notifying Instantel, or fails to appeal any adjudication against BI to the appropriate appellate court without the prior written consent
of Instantel, then Instantel will not be liable to BI under this paragraph 5.2. 

  

	 	5.3	Infringement by Third Parties. 

 Instantel shall
give notice to BI as soon as reasonably possible of any infringement by third parties with respect to the BI Patent. Upon notice from Instantel, BI shall have 15 business days to determine the best course of action regarding the potential
infringement. BI will have the first right, but not the obligation, to bring action against any infringer and, if necessary, Instantel hereby agrees to join as a nominal party in the action. In the event that BI decides not to bring action against
any infringer, BI shall grant Instantel the right to commence an action in its own name. In the event that BI does not respond to Instantel’s notice, Instantel shall have the right to pursue the best course of action regarding the potential
infringement. BI shall be kept advised at all times of the progress of the action and shall be provided copies of all pleadings, motions, discovery requests and responses, briefs, and court orders and decisions as soon as such documents are served.
All legal and other costs incurred by a Party in prosecuting a claim herein shall be the responsibility of and be paid by the Party incurring same. All patent infringement actions shall be kept confidential between BI and Instantel except as
necessary to protect BI’s patent interest in any infringement action. 
  

	 	5.4	Right of Instantel to Produce 

 Nothing in the
Agreement shall be construed to either:
