And further, Bistromatics provided substantial unanticipated additional services during the past 5 months to fully engineer and construct additional novel features that were required in order to ready the PHZIO platform for launch; and

 

WHEREAS, these additional services resulted in costs to Bistromatics in the amount of approximately US$225,000; and
