Intellectual Property and License Agreement

Note 5 – Intellectual Property and License Agreement

 

On June 1, 2016, the Company entered into a ten-year License Agreement with Helidyne LLC for total consideration of $100,000 to utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in the manufacturing of planetary rotor expanders and the incorporation of same in the Company’s distributed electric power generation systems. The license agreement also grants the Company an exclusive license to sell the expanders whether manufactured by Helidyne or by the Company. The Company’s royalty obligation begins on the earlier of the commercialization of the product or three years from the effective date of the agreement. Once the royalty obligation begins, the minimum annual royalty is $50,000 for each of the first six years, and $100,000, per commercial year, for the remainder of the agreement. Helidyne has defaulted under the agreement. Royalties would be payable only if Helidyne performs as required, or if the Company elects to produce its own expanders using Helidyne technology. During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, management of the Company evaluated the continued default by Helidyne and determined that Helidyne will not be able to perform under the license agreement for the foreseeable future. The Company’s license agreement continues to be active and the Company may utilize the Helidyne intellectual property in marketing its own products. Under the terms of the license agreement, the Company has the right to develop a prototype utilizing the Helidyne technology at its own cost. Due to the continued default by Helidyne and the potential cost of developing its own prototype, the Company has determined that the intangible asset related to the above license agreement is impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $69,178, which is 100% of the net carrying value. See Note 9.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, amortization expense was $7,374, and accumulated amortization of the intangible assets was $25,822 at December 31, 2018.
