1. Pods

Pods are Trailers

They come in two types:

EcoSense Pod – a mobile labEcOasis Pod – a mobile community life support

(now both called : EcOasis Pod-Lab)(Both have common engineering, parts, components,

technologies, supplies, modi operandi


3

2. Tents

Tents are Air-Inflatable Shelters

They come in several types:

Small, for a few people, a vehicle, some equipmentLarge – more people, more equipment

Huge – warehouse, shelter, mini-fab, ops center

All have common physical fabrication, design, transport, installation, modi operandi

The very Basics - Pods

Trailers from Wells Cargo: standard or custom

Assembly and configuration at TETRADYN in MI:Assemble racks, shelves, benches

Load and assemble permanent equipment

Load removable/short-life equipment and supplies

Send to destination as required


5

2.1 Tents

The very Basics - Tents

Fabric and tube components from Federal Fabrics: standard or custom

Assembly and configuration at TETRADYN in MI:Assemble and test tent structure

Add any custom components or treatments (sensors, lighting, protective (e.g. BioProt) coatings)

Send to destination as required

1.2 Pods

The basic trailer for either Pod type

1.3 Pods

The basic Pod assembly process

Trailer modifications

Electrical & gas/water lines

Racks, shelving, benches

Add-on storage units

2.2 Tents

The basic parts for any Tent type

Airbeams

airframes

fabric-covered shelters

custom-equipped shelters


9

2.3 Tents

The basic Tent assembly process

Sewing (Ultrasonic / thermal)

Electrical & communications

Special airlock/window fabs

BioProt or other treatments

Sensor/custom installs

Full QA/QC checkout

Live tests in outdoor testyard

Package and ready to ship

+ the Same High-Bay workshop and yard as for the Pods and for other ELAB work requiring mechanical/electrical custom fabrication/testing

Using one large tent – to assemble more


10

1.4 Pods

The Pod-Lab Business

(a) EcoSense Pod-Labs used by TETRAD’s own ELAB for its mobile network of energy-plant, environmental, and specialized analytical onsite testing & monitoring

(b) EcOasis Pod-Labs sold to ISEC and many others

(c) Limited sales of similar or customized Pods to other clients*(1)

(1) Non-competitive companies


11

1.5 Pods

The Pod Numbers

(a) Typical mfr. cost - EcoSense Pod $50-150K*(1)

(b) Typical mfr. cost - EcOasis Pod $60-80K*(1)

(c) ROI per EcoSense Pod (ELAB) - @ $25K - $55K/month in service, $2-3K/day *(2)

(d) ROI per EcOasis Pod - @ $20-30K

(e) Current (2008) Competition – none like these, less modular, less adaptive, less advanced, and much more expensive

(f) Est. production/sales in 2009 – from 25 to 50 Pods by Plan

(1) Fully-loaded, ready to use or ship; variance due to instrumentation and specialized equipment installed

(2) Including part-time, occasional onsite technical services


12

2.4 Tents

The Tent Business

(a) Direct sales via partners

(b) Direct sales to ELAB customers (plants, fabs)*(1)

(b) Direct sales to ISEC*(2)

(c) Direct sales to lease companies

(1) e.g., petrochem and biopharma

(2) Smaller units mainly, for EcOasis Pods


13

2.5 Tents

The Tent Numbers

(a) Typical mfr. cost - $25/sq. ft.

(b) Typical sale price - $50/sq. ft.

(c) Range of pricing for different types can be $25-70/sq. ft. sale price

(d) Projected ROI for TETRADYN can reach $15/sq. ft.

(e) Main market problem today (2008) – Demand far exceeds Supply and ability of manufacturers (e.g., Federal Fabrics) to keep up

(f) Need – in China, currently, 3 Million Tents [Q.E.D.]

3. Combo

Pods & Trailers Go Together

In a variety of profitable ways:

1. Uses and applications2. Customer Base – he who buys one, will buy the other3. Manufacturing, assembly, customizing, testing4. Marketing and sales5. Suppliers6. One Base – TETRADYN – Michigan


15

4. Today and Practicalities

Pods & Trailers - Ready to Make & Sell

This is Turn-Key Business, a Mistake to Ignore:

1. Suppliers all sent, pre-qualified, arrangements ready2. Multiple facility locations set, evaluated, ready to lease3. Employees (all types and levels) ready, set, to go4. Customers lined up and no shortage5. Low-interest loans and HUD funding available, ready6. TETRAD known in the field, soon to be more visible* *(1)

6. Essentially all the hard work already done

(1) Shelter blast-testing contract set to go (Q3), US Army et al


16

Today, No One and No Place can be Removed from the Crisis at Hand

and No One and No Place Need be Separated from the Solutions


17

We put All This into a Pod that makes it “EcOasis” – an Eco-Oasis for Emergencies

What comes out – fresh water, electricity, health hazard monitoring, internet, CareCopyright © 2008 TETRADYN, LLC All Rights Reserved

Give people an EcOasis filled with earth, water, air and fire, and it becomes

a Microeconomic Reactor, a Grameen-Bank-on-Growth-Hormone, a Way Out and Up, an Answer that makes capital and doesn’t just burn it.

This is Sensible-Sustainable-Renewability.

This is Progress and Survival.

The EcOasis Pod System
