1 Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc. Business Plan Template This template outlines the specific information that Primaxis Technology Ventures looks for when making an investment decision. Please understand that these headings and questions are guidelines only and it is understood that, at an early stage, not all of the sub-headings will be appropriate and not all of the questions will be answerable. However, all of the questions in this document are relevant and the more you answer, the easier it will be to understand the value of your business concept. There is no set format for a business plan, however packaging the material as we have presented allows Primaxis to quickly understand how your opportunity fits with our investment criteria. Our investment criteria can be broken down into five categories: Technology Intellectual Property Market Management Return on Investment It is our experience that the following template properly documents these five criteria. Any questions concerning this document should be directed to the attention of Andrew Harrison.

3 Appendix A Resumes of Company Founders 1.0 Executive Summary At the end of this section, the reader should know exactly what you are going to do, how you are going to do it, why you can do it better than anyone else, why you will continue to do it better, how much money you are going to make and the funding you will require. This section should be no longer than three pages and should detail the following (See the body of the business plan for an explanation of these headings): The Basic Need and Company Solution Market Opportunity Product and Technology Value Proposition Revenue Model Channels to Market Competition Sustainable Competitive Advantage Product Roll-out Strategy Management Team Funding Requirements Financial Summary Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc. Page 2 of 13
4 2.0 Business Opportunity and Customer Need 2.1 Mission Statement The mission statement should sum up the goal of the company in one or two sentences. It should instantly clarify what the company is trying to achieve. 2.2 Company History When was the company incorporated? Where was it incorporated? How many employees does it have? Where are the offices/facilities? 2.3 Basic Need and Company Solution What basic customer need does your product satisfy? How is this need currently addressed and how is the current solution inadequate? What is the product or service that your company will offer? How are you addressing this customer need and how does your product overcome the limitations of other solutions? 2.4 Value Proposition What savings does your product represent in terms of time and money? How will it better position your customers against their competition? 2.5 Customers and End-users Who are your immediate target customers? How will your target customers use your product to their competitive advantage? Why do these customers need your product the most? Who will benefit from your products in the long term? Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc. Page 3 of 13
5 3.0 Technology Assessment 3.1 Product and Technology Description What is your product? Discuss and make clear the technology and/or unique skills behind your product, defining the relevant acronyms and terminology needed to understand the technology. What is the current state of development of your technology and product? 3.2 Technology Advantage What sustainable advantages does your technology/product offer over competing technologies? 3.3 Intellectual Property (IP) What have you patented and what will you patent? Outline your entire IP strategy in terms of what will be patented and what will be kept as a trade secret. What can you do to further secure your intellectual property position? Discuss how your IP makes the value position outlined in Section 2.3 possible. 3.4 Concept Risk What development risks does your technology have? What risks are there that your technology will be made obsolete by new technologies? What technology trends could change the specific needs of your customers? Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc. Page 4 of 13
6 4.0 Market Analysis 4.1 Target Customers Define, very specifically, the target customers you have chosen. Briefly mention why you have chosen them and why you think they will chose your product (real examples of customer interest). How will these customers use your product to their competitive advantage? Mention relevant trends that may affect your target market (geographic, demographic, cultural, regulatory, etc.). 4.2 Market Segmentation What other segments of the market represent a revenue opportunity? What other segments represent a strategic opportunity or lead to other market segments? What is the money potential of all of these market segments and how much will it grow in the future? Try to break down the opportunity by segment if possible. Predict the dates when you will enter these markets. The market segmentation section is sometimes referred to as your bowlingpin strategy. The bowling pins represent the market you intend to serve. The lead pin is your target market. The other pins are other market segments that can be secured only after you have knocked down your target market pin. Write this section describing each segment in the sequence that it will fall after the target pin is knocked over. 4.3 TAM, SAM and SOM Quantify the Total Available Market (TAM) available to your company. The TAM is the total value of the sector that you will be competing in. Quantify the Served Available Market (SAM) that your company can realistically service. This is the size of the market represented by your target customers. Calculate the share of the SAM that your company will try and capture. The Share of Market (SOM) can be calculated from your financial projections in Section 8.0, or can be assumed if you make reasonable, understandable assumptions. Example: Total Available Market Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Size of market (in 000s) $20,500,000 $22,037,500 $23,690,313 $25,467,086 $27,377,117 Total people in market 23,400,000 23,605,022 23,605,022 23,605,022 23,605,022 Served Available Market Size of market (in 000s) $18,186 $19,550 $127,204 $137,943 $149,588 Women in our target market 20,759 20, , , ,977 Share of Market Size of served market (in 000s) $0 $2,025 $13,800 $29,314 $52,312 Pct. of served market captured 0.00% 10.36% 10.85% 21.25% 34.97% Table ** TAM, SAM and SOM Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc.

Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc. Page 6 of 13
8 5.0 Business Strategy 5.1 Business Model What kind of business are you and what will you become in the future? How is your business structured? Outline the sales process.

How are you going to increase your reach and revenues? How will you further penetrate the market? What are the major costs and how can they be controlled? 5.2 Business Strategy What is your target market and why? How are you going to position yourself in your competitive landscape? Why is that position the right one for your company and what advantages and disadvantages does it confer? Who are your strategic partners? How will they help you strengthen your business? After you secure your target market, how are you going to attack the other segments of the market? With what new products? 5.3 Channels to Market How do you get your product to the customer? How long does it take? Detail all of the partnerships and joint ventures that will get your product to market. 5.4 Key Milestones with Revenue Projections What milestones have you chosen to define the success of your model and strategy (i.e. product development, headcount, sales, etc.)? When will the milestones be met? How much money should you be making at each of these milestones? How much funding will you require and when? When will you IPO? This section is best supported by a graph, Gantt Chart or other carefully selected diagram. Primaxis Technology Ventures Inc. Page 7 of 13
9 6.0 Sales Plan 6.1 Marketing and Sales strategy How do you reach your target market? What are the points of contact between your company and the customer? What is the structure of your sales team? Where is your company physically located relative to your customers? Why there? How does this location help or hinder your sales efforts? How are you going to market your product effectively? What is your branding strategy? At what price point will you release your product and future products (low, mid, high)? Justify the chosen price points. What joint venture or partnership strategies will you employ to sell your product? How will you compensate the sales staff? Outline any trends that may be relevant to your sales strategy.

Why will these be compelling enough to convince people to buy your product over your competition? Compare and contrast your solution with your competitors.
