(“TBE”) Team that has been awarded a contract relating to the United States Department of Defense (“DOD”) Joint Material Decontamination System (“JMDS”). The JMDS is required to have the ability to decontaminate sensitive equipment, and interiors of vehicles, aircraft, ships and fixed site facilities that have been exposed to Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (“CBRN”) warfare agents. Users of the JMDS will include the United States Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps. TBE has informed BIOQUELL that the DOD has awarded TBE the initial System Development and Demonstration (“SDD”) phase of the JMDS contract which is worth approximately $14.7 million (of which BIOQUELL’s share is expected to be some $7 million) and will last two years. The SDD phase is reimbursed on a cost plus basis. The DOD’s request for proposal dated 13 March 2007 described a SDD phase which would last two years - and requested firm prices for two production options: the low rate initial production (“LRIP”) option of 23 JMDS units and the full rate production (“FRP”) option of 1,843 units.
