On July 2, 2013, BioPower Operations Corporation’s, wholly-owned subsidiary, BioPower Corporation (“BioPower or the Company”), entered into agreements for the first stage of a project to develop a castor plantation and milling operation in the Republic of Paraguay with offshore entities (aka “Ambrosia and “Developer”) for the testing and development of a project with up to $10,000,000 in financing upon certification of the castor yield effective. Under the terms of the Testing Services Agreement, the Developer will provide the land, pay costs for the testing and pay BioPower a monthly $45,000 project management fee and reimbursement of expenses during the test period for subcontractors on the ground in Paraguay. BioPower will provide project management testing services through the testing phase for up to 12 months until the successful certification of the yield from growing castor is proven, subject to material and adverse events. Once Ambrosia approves the project, then under the Castor Master Farm Management Services Agreement, the $10,000,000 to be invested from Ambrosia will go towards the development and operations of the first stage of the castor plantation and the building of the mill and its operations.
