Scope of Work: The next stage of the project will be broken down into four Phases.
At the signing of the Agreement, Sonos will receive 50,000 warrants, cashless, at $0.20 per share, 3 year term


 
Phase 1A:
Deliver product development report with overview of development plan from feasibility study.
Budget: $500 (Paid)
 
Schedule: 1 Week (Complete)
 
Phase 1B:
Overview:
We will conduct a search of literature, patents, and sources for information to guide the definition of the device requirements.  Included in this research will be the patents and related work of Dr. Saini. As part of this amassing of data we have ordered a copy of the Goldsmith text on the Omentum for our research and review. The work by Dr. Saini’s patent counsel undoubtedly will have a lot of material on which we can draw from as well.
 
Some specific items we have already identified include:
·  
Review Saini patent application and other patents in U. S. Class 424/551
·  
Review other patents related to omentum, fluid extraction and collection, stimulation
·  
Search medical literature for omentum texts, articles including applications in cosmetics and angiogenesis
·  
Research clinical studies of omentum in treatment of dementia
In the reviewing of the patent our interest is not about uncovering prior art as it is to learn what we can from the patent background discussions. Our engineering team will also be on spending some time at the UCI Med library and will be contacting the Alzheimer’s Association for additional information. 
If you can forward any references, literature or prior art from Dr. Saini or his patent counsel would be very helpful as well. 

Research the Omentum and related patents and literature to obtain a better comprehension of the Omentum as a basis for designing the fluid extraction device.

We expect Phase 1B to require 3-4 weeks to complete from time it is scheduled.
Phase 1B completion: Sonos will receive 50,000 warrants, cashless, exercise price based on the fair market value of the stock on the date earned, 3 year term from date earned.

·  
Sources
·  
Biocompatibility
·  
Reliability and durability
·  
Software
·  
Regulatory classification and applicable standards, third-party certification
·  
Intended use
·  
Method of implantation, use, and removal
·  
Method of fabrication of components and assembly
·  
Performance
·  
Power supply and parameters
·  
Implant duration
·  
Risks and risk management
·  
Documentation
 
Delivery of a document that outlines the parameters for preliminary regulatory assessment and classification.

We expect Phase I to require 2-3 weeks to complete from time it is scheduled.
Phase 2 completion: Sonos will receive 50,000 warrants, cashless, exercise price based on the fair market value of the stock on the date earned, 3 year term from date earned.
 
Phase 2 Budget:
$17,500.00
Budget Amount
$1,356.25
Sales Tax at 7.75%  (applicable only in CA)
$18,856.25
Please Pay This Amount
                          
The next two phases will be further refined and defined once we have the research, parameters and design documentation completed from phases 1 and 2 above. Below is a brief overview of our current plans.

Phase 3:
CONCEPTS:
Develop a minimum of three design concepts that meet the design objectives.  Identify the key risks and technology challenges for each.  Document the concepts in sketches, drawings, and draft specifications and estimate schedule, capital, and production costs for each approach.
Phase 3 completion: Sonos will receive 100,000 warrants, cashless, exercise price based on the fair market value of the stock on the date earned, 3 year term from date earned.
 
Budget: $12,500
 
Schedule: 2-3 Weeks

 
Phase 4:
BUILD PROTOTYPES:
Review concepts from Phase 3 and choose three or more of the design concepts for development of prototypes for testing in Phase 5.  Develop a project schedule based on the concepts selected and fabricate a select number of working prototypes of each design for subcutaneous testing.
Phase 4 completion: Sonos will receive 100,000 warrants for each of the three prototypes for a total of 300,000 warrants, cashless, exercise price based on the fair market value of the stock on the date earned, 3 year term from date earned. Should be complete by the end of April 2013. (If Sonos completes the first Omentum producing prototype by March 31st, Sonos will receive an additional 100,000 warrants, cashless, exercise price based on the fair market value of the stock on the date earned, 3 year term from date earned.
Budget: $295K – 350K
 
Schedule: 5-6 months

Phase 5:                      TESTING: This Phase will be up to Dr. Saini as far as costs and schedule.
Budget: TBD. Based on the results of Phase 4
Schedule: TBD

 
Phase 6:
Refinements, Changes and CAD MODELING UPDATES of the one design that stands above all others in the testing in Phase 5.
Refinements and changes made to 3D CAD documentation based on what is learned from testing is Phase 5 above. (This Phase is very dependent on that is learned and how close we are to a solution.
Budget: $50K – 100K
Schedule: 1-2 Months

 
Phase 7:
Production or make changes to prototype or make a new prototype if necessary.
Budget: TBD. Based on the results of Phase 6
 
Schedule: TBD
