Hi Jeffrey
I did a preliminary call with the CEO (Isaiah Cox).
• Company looking to raise $12MM which should get them through final FAA certification and enable the first
commercial aircraft installation in 2019.
• The company will provide the equipment free of charge (including installation) to the airlines. Cost to the company of
$200K. In return they take half of the savings generated by having the device installed.
• Installation takes 8-12 hours per plane. Teams will travel around the world for installations.
• See big demand from Middle East airlines (not needing to keep the engines running and therefore less damage from
dust). Currently order book over 1000.
• Savings determined by:
o Push back fee — agreed and known
o Pre-agree fuel savings
o Time saved on ground by turning around the plane more quickly and getting back into the air- measured as
$/minute saved
• Wheel Tug would keep half these savings
• Deloitte study (attached) gave a wide range of $440 - $3300 savings per flight per plane
• They offered a deal where you get 10% of revenue until you get a multiple of your investment. How about asking for
10% of revenue until we get 5x our investment back plus warrants at today's valuation (currently at $1.3BIn). Also
would ask for liquidation priority over all existing equity holders.
• They assume 1720 flights per year per plane and targeting an installed base of 1700 planes by 2022.
• Based on a Deloitte study of potential savings combined with the company's installation projections, below is a table
showing the 10% of Wheel Tug's revenue that would be payable to you. For example in a Low Savings environment you
would get -$11MM back by 2020 and then an additional $31.5MM by 2021. Total Sx payout of $60MM would be
complete in 2022.
Investor 2019 2020 2021 2022
Low Savings $ 2,389,338.00 $ 8,685,054.00 $ 31,516,506.00 $ 66,635,982.00
I Medium Savings $ 5,959,800.00 $ 21,663,400.00 $ 78,612,600.00 $ 166,212,200.00
High Savings $ 17,879,400.00 $ 64,990,200.00 $ 235,837,800.00 $ 498,636,600.00
• Chart below is a breakdown of how they could save an airline $2550 per flight (optimistic in my opinion as most U.S
airports don't have dual loading capacity).

Any chance we can get your pilot on a call with the CEO to verify these assumptions?
Summary: The WheelTug incorporates the elements of an electric motor, such as the stator and the rotor, inside the hub of
each of the 737's twin nose wheels. Instead of a battery, these motors draw current directly from the auxiliary power-unit, a
small generator in the rear of an airliner that is used on the ground to run its electrical services. For a long taxi, they can also
take power from the generators driven by the aircraft's jet engines
