<p align="left"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif">Actasys, Inc.</span></b><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif"> Actasys is
developing active aerodynamic systems by leveraging a technology developed for
aerospace applications. It is a platform technology that can significantly
improve energy efficiency and reduce costs in a wide variety of markets,
including transportation, automotive, wind turbines, and buildings. Actasys is
currently focusing on the transportation market with a product that increases
the fuel efficiency of Class 8 trucks by up to 18%. The technology is based on
synthetic jets, actuators that with a minimal amount of power can create very
powerful jets of air, redirecting the main airflow in the desired directions.</span><b> </b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:0.5in"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif">As a platform
technology, synthetic jets can be applied to a wide range of markets and
applications. When applied to wind
turbine blades, they significantly reduces stress from vibration of the blades
while enhancing efficiency and broadening the range of exploitable wind
velocities. For wind turbines in urban
scenarios, synthetic jets can significantly reduce the tower heights (since they
can reduce significantly the turbulence generated by the buildings and readjust
the flow to an optimal condition), decreasing construction costs and widening
the type of buildings suitable for roof wind turbines. Actasys also intends to
characterize use of the technology within a wind farm, as it is likely it can
reduce turbulence in the wake of turbines, raising the overall energy
production of the farm. In the HVAC sector the technology drastically improves
mixing and circulation of air in rooms and can dynamically adapt the airflow
from vents to meet room occupancy requirements. There are numerous other
potential applications in architectural, structural, heating and cooling,
marine, and transportation markets.</span></p>

commercial application of the technology is in heavy-duty transportation, which
presents an extremely large market opportunity. With its technology Actasys can
achieve up to 18% fuel savings for heavy trucks, revolutionizing aerodynamic
improvements for trucks without the need to change shapes or make significant
capital investments, just as new regulatory requirements are being implemented
for fuel efficiency in this sector. Not
only are the fuel savings superior to any competing technology, but the
enhanced performance can be maintained in varying environmental settings due to
the ability of the system to adapt to any kind of driving and weather
conditions.</span></p>
