Note 3 - Agreement with Desmet Ballestra

On May 14, 2012 we signed a global R and D, Marketing and Technology License Agreement with the n.v. Desmet Ballestra Group s.a. (Desmet), a Belgian company that is actively marketing the NANO Neutralization System, the key component of which is the Company's reactor to soybean and other vegetable oil refiners. The Agreement provides Desmet (licensee) a limited, exclusive license and right to develop, design and supply Nano Reactor® systems which incorporate Nano Reactor® devices on a global basis but is limited to oils and fats and oleo chemical applications. CTi (licensor) remains owner of the current patents and patent applications but Desmet will be co-owner of any new process patent applications jointly developed. Desmet has agreed to provide, under certain conditions, limited monthly advance payments of $125,000 against future sales to CTi. Desmet shall be entitled to immediately terminate the present agreement in case the claims of current US Patent Application Number 12/484,981 are not granted as such or are cancelled. In addition, Desmet may terminate the agreement on August 1 of any particular year if they have not installed at least 6 Nano Reactor® devices in the previous 12 month period. CTi may terminate the Agreement for material default. This Agreement supersedes a previous agreement dated November 1, 2010, amended on June 1, 2011 and on September 2, 2011.

Desmet, together with its affiliates, is a global engineering and equipment supply firm engaged in the development, design and supply of process equipment for oils and fats processing facilities including vegetable oil refining, biofuel, oleo chemical, seed crushing, surfactant and detergent markets. Desmet supplies these markets with competitive services based on the latest globally sourced technologies.

The Company and Desmet have worked together to determine the appropriate sales approach and installation process. The Company's Nano Neutralization is designed to be used as an add-on process to an existing neutralization system within soybean and other vegetable oil refineries. Desmet purchases Nano Reactor Systems from the Company and installs them at the refinery as part of an integrated neutralization system. We are therefore substantially dependent on Desmet to identify prospects, complete sales contracts, install the system and manage relationships with end- users.

During the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we recorded no revenues from Desmet or otherwise. The Company received advances of $250,000 in each three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. As of September 30, 2013, Desmet has advanced to us an excess of funds of $1,465,663 which will be recognized as revenue as sales orders are shipped.
