INTRODUCTION
Over many years, the inventor and others invested much time and money to develop the AEROS System©. Industry
experts agree that AEROS is the best solution ever conceived to control large marine oil spills and that as soon as it is
proven with live oil spill recovery demonstrations, industry and governments from around the world will embrace and
support this technology that will radically improve (finally) capabilities to effectively control large marine oil spills.
Numerous countries have expressed serious interest subject to live oil spill recovery demonstrations with a prototype.
DESCRIPTION OF THE AEROS SYSTEM
AEROS, the world’s first and only non-dispersant “Airborne Emergency Response to Oil Spills” is a patented solution to
control more effectively large marine oil spills, including oil tanker spills (like the Exxon Valdez spill), offshore oil rig
disasters (like the BP Deep Horizon disaster), the Gulf War oil spill, and any other kind of large marine oil spill.
The AEROS System is controlled by satellites and is dispatched to the scene of an oil spill by heavy drop-load cargo
aircraft, such as the C-130 Hercules aircraft, the Lockheed L-100 or the ILYUSHIN IL-76 aircraft, parachuting AEROS into
the disaster site within hours of a spill report. This rapid response overcomes the slow reaction times involved with
conventional ship-borne oil spill response systems such as conventional booms and skimmers. With AEROS, rapid
containment and recovery of the spill begins before it can spread beyond human capacity to respond effectively.
Conventional oil spill remediation typically recovers less than 5% of large spills. The environment is left to absorb the
rest. The AEROS system is designed to recover up to 90%+ of the spilled oil, depending on sea state (excluding the
evaporated hydrocarbons in the first hours of the spill). Because AEROS is unmanned, it avoids risks to human crews
caused by toxic hydrocarbon vapors and inherently dangerous operations on the surface of the ocean.
Can AEROS work? There are numerous independent assessments and testimonials about AEROS (available on
request). To date, AEROS is the only known system that combines rapid airborne response and high-volume,
efficient recovery of large marine oil spills.
CURRENT STATUS OF THE TECHNOLOGY
Basic design engineering is completed and patent protection is in place. Strategic alliances have been forged with
established companies that possess the ideal experience and proven capabilities to be able to build a successful
prototype of the AEROS System. Technological risks re the AEROS System have been addressed and properly resolved.
WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP?
The next step is to secure the financing for the construction, testing and live oil spill recovery demonstrations of a fully
operational AEROS prototype system. The budget is estimated at US$5.5Million. Pristine Oceans Group can offer a
major equity stake to any suitable organization able to provide the mezzanine financing.
DUE DILIGENCE RE INDUSTRY ACCEPTANCE & TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY
To facilitate due diligence as to the feasibility (and insignificant technological risk) of developing a successful product
based on this technology, the following industry experts may be contacted after confirming with Mr. Sullivan:
1) Don Darling, MSME(MIT), President, SeaRobotics Corporation, Jupiter, Florida
Dr. David Kortenkamp, PhD, P.Eng., President, TRACLABS Inc., Houston, Texas
To facilitate due diligence as to the potential global market and acceptance of this technology by the oil industry, the
following senior oil spill experts can be contacted:

STRATEGIC BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PLAN:
Following the planned live oil spill recovery demonstrations of the technology, there are many countries that have
expressed a willingness to support and participate in this venture. Also, major oil companies have expressed serious
interest in supporting/acquiring the technology after the proposed oil spill recovery demonstrations. At this stage, the
company and the technology will have very substantial value and huge growth potential. At this point the company
will have at least 2 main options: A) to become acquired by a large global company; or, B) to go public and provide a
turnkey service on a global scale (this would likely involve the creation of operating joint ventures in numerous
countries).
Depending on the market response to the live oil spill recovery demonstrations, it may be justified to finance the
construction of 2 or more ERBs simultaneously.
TIMELINES FOR ACHIEVING FULL OPERATING STATUS & CASH FLOW:
As soon as the mezzanine funding $5.5M is secured, the following timelines will apply:
-Complete construction of AEROS Prototype at SeaRobotics Corporation: Month 10
-Develop AEROS System operating software code at TRACLabs Inc.: Month 10
-Integration of hardware with software operating systems Month 11
-Public Demo Live Oil Spill Recovery Demos: Month 12
-Secure Financing for the initial ERB(s): Month 13-14
-Complete construction of equipment, set-up & launch of fully operational Base #1: Month 30
-Complete construction of equipment, set-up & launch of fully operational Base #2: Month 36
MANAGEMENT TEAM & COMPANIES THAT WILL BUILD THE PROTOTYPE :
A world-class project development team has been assembled that is motivated and stands behind the project. The
two main associate companies selected to build, test, and demonstrate the prototype are well-known, highly qualified
U.S. groups, namely: TRACLabs Inc., and SeaRobotics Corporation.
TRACLabs Inc., Houston, TX: Robotics engineering specialists and prime contractors to NASA. Website:
www.traclabs.com. Dr. David Kortencamp, PhD, P.Eng., President.
SeaRobotics Corp., Jupiter, FL: Extensive experience in the field of engineering, construction, and testing of satellite-
controlled robotic marine vessels. www.searobotics.com. Don Darling, MSME(MIT), President.
SALES & PROFITS: From the commencement of commercial operations in Month 30, the key financial projections are
as follows: Total Revenues (Yr.5) = $2.05 Billion; Gross Profit (Yr.5) = $1.4 Billion. (Detailed projections available).
COMPETIVE SUMMARY:
There is no competitive technology known that can match the AEROS system in:
- Speed of response (20 times faster than all conventional ship-borne response systems);
- Process capacity and efficiency (each system processes 400-2,000 gallons per minute);
- Versatility of application (oil tanker incidents, off-shore oil rig disasters, wartime oil
spills like the Gulf War, etc.);
- Human safety;
- Rate of recovery of spilled oil.

The AEROS System is rapid and versatile with high-volume oil recovery efficiency. It operates
day and night and since it is unmanned it avoids all risks to human safety.

of the vortex, water molecules (because they’re heavier) spin to the outside. Due to a controlled pressure differential
at the two ends of the hydrocyclone, the dark stream of crude oil in the center of the cone-shaped separation
chamber is actually moving to the LEFT, where it is being drawn off through the center of the vortex.
Notice the absolutely clean water exiting from the water collection chamber (left side) after being separated from the oil-water
mixture as shown in the previous photo. Black oil exits from the oil collection chamber (right side) after being separated from the
oil-water mixture. The AEROS system is extremely efficient and can effectively separate oil and water even with sudden surges in
the oil content of the liquid intake stream.

systems. This model is operated by a RF hand-held remote control module and demonstrates the vehicle's robotic
marine propulsion system that does not disturb nearby surface water and provides 360° maneuverability as well as
rotation both clockwise and anti-clockwise. These capabilities increase crude oil recovery efficiencies.
