In addition, the Company will have to pay a royalty of 3% from gross revenue on sales of the trademark products.

The Company is unable to sublicense the Licensed Trademarks without the prior written consent of Brightcliff, and subject to payment of a sublicensing fee in the amount of $1,000,000 in cash or stock, at Brightcliff’s sole option, along with a royalty fee at the rate of 8% of the sublicensee’s revenue from its sale of the Licensed Products.

The Agreement will be terminated and the Company will lose its rights to the Licensed Trademarks if it failed to have licensed products ready for sale to the public within five years of the effective date of the Agreement.

The Agreement with Brightcliff is not an arm’s length agreement as Lim Hun Beng is a shareholder and director of Brightcliff.
