This agreement remains terminated and has not been reinstated. The Company confirms that it does not have any existing, nor does it intend to in the future enter into any, agreement or arrangement with Hardge or EVT. As a one-time accommodation, the Company has agreed to allow Hardge to test his units on two of the Company’s vehicles that are currently at an EPA certified test facility for the sole purpose of verifying the technology.
