Unmanned Systems and Market Trends • Commercialization • Market Growth • Regulatory Pressure • Commoditization • Increased Autonomy • Miniaturization • Proliferation

Commercialization 3

The Existing Universe of Unmanned Systems - Dominated by National Security 4

The Emerging Universe of Unmanned Systems - Commercial Applications 5

Market Growth Projected for UAS AUVSI • The economic impact of the integration of UAS into the NAS will total more than $13.6 billion in the first three years of integration and will grow sustainably for the foreseeable future, cumulating to more than $82.1 billion between 2015 and 2025. Teal Group • 2013 market study estimates that UAV spending will more than double over the next decade from current worldwide UAV expenditures of $5.2 billion annually to $11.6 billion, totaling just over $89 billion in the next ten years . ReportsnReports.com • Research report projects that the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Market (UAV) Worth $114.7B by 2023. 6

Regulatory Pressure - Safety FAA UAS Test Sites for Airspace Integration •Legislation • National Defense Authorization Act (December 31, 2011) • FAA Modernization and Reform Act (February 14, 2012) •FAA Test Sites • FAA Issued SIR (aka RFP) • Thirty-Four Entities Responded • Six Test Sites Selected •FAA Centers of Excellence • University Teams • Cooperative Agreements • Matching Grants for UAS Related • Research • Education • Training 19

The Future of Unmanned Systems 20

DreamHammer • Founded more than ten years ago to service the commercial information technology market, DreamHammer is a small business with o ffj ces in Honolulu, HI, Los Angeles, CA, San Diego, CA, and Arlington, VA. • DreamHammer has developed and released commercially available open architecture software for the real time control of all networked devices and the fusion of dynamic and static heterogeneous data sets into a single GIS enabled 4D user interface. • Built on DreamHammer’s patented technology, Ballista is an application designed specifically for the control of unmanned systems and their sensors. It is the culmination of more than three years of internally funded research and development and is built specifically to meet the demanding requirements of the National Security market; Manufacturers, developers, integrators, and most importantly, operators. • DreamHammer will soon release additional applications based on our development platform to include products designed for asset management, spectrum allocation, logistics, and airspace control. 21

DreamHammer Delivery Model • Our software is a commercial product available to OEMs and software developers/integrators to develop interoperable command and control capability even while working in disassociated programs. • DreamHammer supports commoditization in the unmanned systems market in that our product separates the platforms and sensors from the control software. • The software architecture supports rapid tech refresh that is not dependent on programmatic considerations. Like the computer on your desk or your iPhone, mission critical software can be updated as new apps become available. • The Department of Defense has an opportunity to implement a single standard allowing cross-domain command and control functionality in a single user interface for the asset manager as well as the platform operator. • Ability to control multiple vehicles and sensors simultaneously in a single common user interface will lower operational and training costs. 23
