Building and Equipment Supplied By the Licensee

For cost savings, the following Items are provided by the licensee and supported by ABCOV® as part of ABCOV®’s consulting fees: ABCOV® Plant Equipment Supplied by the licensee for a permanent facility or mobile onsite project (Please Note: This does not include the ABCOV® asbestos conversion system equipment designed, built, and installed by ABCOV® along with the trained licensee’s accredited asbestos workers as a part of ABCOV® operating and maintenance training).

Building and Negative Air Containment for Plant Operations:

The building size is predicated on the equipment needed to convert the amount of asbestos or asbestos-containing materials the licensee wishes to convert to a non-toxic recyclable end-product in an eight-hour shift. The negative-air containment is designed and built as per the space needed to house the ABCOV® conversion equipment with a spill containment built around the perimeter. (Please Note: Because all ABCOV® equipment is built mobile, modular, and transportable, the ABCOV® conversion system equipment can be easily added; therefore, the building size should allow for expansion of the ABCOV® plant. The height of the asbestos containment should be no less than 6.096 meters (20ft)).

Please Note: That the above list of plant equipment supplied by the licensee may not be complete. A complete list would be dependent on on-site location and ABCOV® plant size.

Labor Requirements and Training

Labor Requirements for Plant Operations:

Accredited asbestos workers are trained to operate the ABCOV® equipment and a trained laboratory technician to read a Polarized Light Microscope to track the progress of asbestos destruction through the process.

Three accredited asbestos workers and one trained microscopist are required to operate up to three reactors no matter what size the reactors are ABCOV® asbestos conversion plant. ABCOV® recommends that you have trained double the personnel needed (Please Note: The number of plant operators and lab technicians will be dependent on the number of reactors operating at one time).

Training Costs:

The amount of asbestos in the asbestos-containing material, Serpentine or Amphibole, or a combination of both embedded in the binder/matrix of asbestos-containing material determines the cost of asbestos destruction, it has been ABCOV’s experience that 1.4kg up to 22.0462 per 3.7854 liters can be treated at a cost that could range from $250.00 to $350.00 per tonne. This cost does not take into the fact there is a saving in the peripheral recyclable end-product, especially steel, and most importantly, the elimination of all asbestos liability.

Permitting, Building Setup, and Health, and Safety Plan:

ABCOV® consults on an hourly basis to support the Permitting process, Health, and Safety Plan and building design and setup, and technical support.

Travel, Meals, and Lodging:

Licensee will be charged at cost, plus 10% overhead and 10% profit for all Travel, Meals, and lodging. Travel, meals, and lodging will include travel to the licensee’s location, travel to ABCOV® equipment vendors, and any other required travel.

Financial Requirements of Licensee:

The cost of the initial ABCOV® license is based on the territory or territories the licensee wishes to be granted an exclusive. If the licensee wishes to want more than one territory, the licensee will pay for the cost to license more than one territory upon signing of the license agreement, The licensee will be required to operate the ABCOV® conversion system in the original territory for a period of six months before the licensee can start a second ABCOV® conversion system.

Licensee buys ABCOV® conversion equipment from ABCOV®. The equipment costs are determined by how many tons/tonnes of asbestos or asbestos-contaminated material the licensee wishes to treat in an eight-hour shift.

Licensee buys two proprietary chemicals from ABCOV®. The licensee can purchase all other chemicals needed to convert asbestos or asbestos-containing material to a non-asbestos recyclable end-product on the open market.

The licensee is required to provide proof of financial stability by providing a financial statement and a performance bond that will guarantees payment if the licensee defaults. The financial statement and a performance bond will state that the licensee will guarantee to protect ABCOV® from patent infringement, infringement on future patents, trade secrets, know-how, and hands-on experience. The Services and Content are protected by copyrights, trademarks, design rights, database rights, drawings, computer programs, sui generis rights, and other intellectual or proprietary rights under U.S. and international laws. The licensee agrees that all intellectual property rights in the Services and the Content (in whole and in part) are and shall remain the property of ABCOV® and the ABCOV® group affiliates. No intellectual property rights in the Content or in the Service are transferred to the licensee.

Licensee must carry sufficient liability insurance and provide proof of liability insurance that names ABCOV® Companies, LLC as an additional insured.

The licensee is required to pay a license maintenance fee of $500.00 per year due each year on the date the original license was signed.

ABCOV® requires the licensee to put upfront a $10,000.00 payment to cover the license drafting and legal fees. The $10,000.00 is credited back to the licensee when the license is paid for and issued (Sample: Agreed and paid license fee $50,000.00 minus $10,000.00 = $40,000.00 on the signing of the ABCOV® license).

ABCOV® consulting services are charged by the hour, plus travel, meals, lodging, and, if needed, the cost of an interpreter. The interpreter will support the ABCOV® personnel and will rewrite the ABCOV® training manuals that are used to train the accredited asbestos workers to operate the ABCOV® conversion system equipment in the language of the foreign country ABCOV® is operating. ABCOV® costs are invoiced on a cost-plus basis of 10% overhead and 10% profit.

Royalty Charges:

A royalty will be paid of $.02 American per gallon or per liter for a 40-hour work week for one reactor, working gallons or liters only. Example: 100 gallons reactor or 378.541 liters reactor, 25 gallons free board or 94.6353 liters free board. Working, 75 gallons or liters 283.906 at $.02 = $1.50 x 40- hour work week = $60.00 American per work week. Please Note: licensee should be able to run one reactor 3 times in an 8-hour shift but will only be charged for one run per 8 hour shift.

Please Note: that all the above may not be inclusive of the licensee’s obligations. The final agreed-upon license agreement will state all the licensor’s and licensee’s obligations. All payments will be made in U.S. dollars.

If the licensee wishes ABCOV to provide a turnkey ABCOV conversion system, charges will be 10% overhead and 10% profit on all costs. The costs will include but not be limited to building laboratory design and laboratory equipment purchase, containment design, equipment design, and purchase, and installation costs of laboratory and plant. The licensee will be charged at cost, plus 10% overhead and 10% profit for all Travel, Meals, and lodging. Travel, meals, and lodging will include but not be limited to travel to the licensee’s location, travel to ABCOV® equipment vendors, and any other required travel. If necessary, interpreter costs, and all consulting costs. The licensee will provide an upfront payment that will be predicated on the estimated cost of the size of the licensee’s ABCOV conversion system.

Asbestos conversion room: double shredder, primary and secondary, screw conveyor to feed shredded ACM into the primary reactor, pump to pump from primary reactor to secondary reactor. Once asbestos is 100% non-detected in the secondary reactor, it is pumped into settling vessels. When the solids have settled in the settling vessels the liquids are siphoned off back into the conversion area and regenerated, if necessary, and reused. There are three vessels in the asbestos conversion room, two holding vessels, and one-day vessel that is used to hold 100 gallons (378.54 Liters) of ABCOV® C (Note: day vessel size is predicated on the size of the ABCOV® conversion system) before reuse in the primary reactor. The asbestos conversion room is equipped with two piggybacked negative air machines with HEPA filters and activated carbon filters, a safety vessel and pump, a safety shower and eyewash (S), a spill containment kit (SK), and a catwalk for reactor vessel view and sample taking.
