I would like to add some clarification with regard
Post# of 3601
1. The $75MM up-front licensing fee was reduced to $1MM to expedite the transaction (Concession made by Coates?) and has nothing to do with product sales.
2. Coates is to provide a gen set to Secure, modified with the CSRV and ignition injection system for testing and demonstration. (George didn't mention this in his PR.)
3. Money will change hands only when orders are received and gen sets are shipped. Nothing will happen unless #2 above passes the smell test and if, as Burned Twice said in his post, the buyer and seller agree on a price.
4. There is no mention in this section of a time line on anything but if you read the entire text of Exhibit 10.1 you will note that it was filed on 12-5-16.
So, be patient my friends. These things take time.
Here is the text of Exhabit 10.1 of the 8K filing relative to license fees.
