Executive Summary This paper discusses the IoT transformation opportunity, elucidates the IoT landscape and provides strategy, target markets, service menu, differentiation and revenue projection for Monitor8 (Monitor it), a next generation IoT software as a service (SaaS) solution and service provider. Background Internet of things (IoT) will usher in a 3 rd wave in internet based connectivity. The wave is enabled by seven factors: 1) proliferation of embedded sensors, 2) availability of low prices embeddable sensors; 3) low cost and ubiquitous wireless connectivity; 4) low cost and massively scalable cloud computing capacity; 5) nearly unlimited IP addresses with migration from IPv4 to IPv6; 6) scalable service oriented and device agnostics IoT services software (platforms) and 7) robust cloud based analytic algorithms and tools. Today, these seven factors enable real-time monitoring and autonomic control of industrial, home-based and personal assets to ascertain condition and affect their state. In summary, a new set of enabling technologies woven together by new IoT platforms will usher in the 3 rd wave of internet where real-time situational awareness of things and people will yield actionable intelligence to pre-emptively optimize and affect condition, health, quality of life, state and thereby efficiency and quality of industrial, home and social operations. IDC forecasts that by 2020 nearly 28 billion things will be connected to the Internet. Other well regarded forecasters predict the IoT market will exceed several trillion dollars by 2020. The game is on but lack of a turn-key, device agnostic and cloud based platform that acts as an integration layer had impeded IoT adoption. To capitalize on the market potential and to bring about vendor and system agnostic IoT solutions, Monitor8 (Monitor it), a new breed of IoT solution and service provider leverages a cloud based IoT SaaS service to enable the rapid enablement of this 3 rd wave of internet. We connect things and people. 2015 Confidential and proprietary. Monitor8, IoTc2. CCG All rights reserved Page 3 of 9

Strategy Adoption of IoT enabling solutions is hampered by the complexity and number of vendors, building blocks and underlying protocols as demonstrated below: The landscape complexity and the plethora of providers elucidates the challenge in selecting a turn-key IoT solution causing slow adoption. Nearly every landscape player is focused in their respective domain. To alleviate this complexity, Monitor8 has selected and woven a best-of-breed eco system of IoT solution providers and developed our turn-key SaaS IoT cloud service. It requires no programming skills, it is a managed service provisioned for a monthly service fee and it presents clients with no up-front capital expenditures (Capex) to get started. Monitor8 focuses on five market segments with our IoT solution: 1) commercial and public sector Facility Management (FM) operators/service providers; 2) Logistics Operators; 3) Department of Homeland Security (DHS); 4) US Department of Defense (DoD) Life Cycle Management Centers (LCMC) and CBRNE 5) the United States Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM). These market segments currently seek an end-to-end solution that can be rapidly deployed. By 2019, these five segments are collectively forecasted to invest nearly $350b in IoT consulting, services, integration and analytics. 2015 Confidential and proprietary. Monitor8, IoTc2.
