from POET's presentation - from this it appears that they may have chosen "Multiple Acquirers"???

Monetization Paths

Single Acquirer

• This path would involve selling POET to a single (by definition large) 3rd party

• Technology access/investment would likely be syndicated by acquirer

• Relatively small number of viable candidates

Multiple Acquirers

• This path would involve selling POET to a syndicate (likely structured as a joint

venture)

• Ideal syndicate would include members with market presence in all key areas related to POET commercialization

Licensing

• Certain specialized market segments might be best addressed by licensing all or part

of the POET/PET technology to one or more 3rd parties for use in a given market

• Can be complex with difficult-to-foresee implications for other activities
