FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION it is hereby agreed as follows:

1.          The Consultant shall provide Operations Manager services and report to the CEO/President/CFO of the Company, and perform such tasks in general including but not limited to the following:

Policies

The Consultant is expected to be intimately familiar with the MMPR, which can be found at http://www.laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-2013-119/. The Consultant will establish policies and procedures that align with the Company’s overall goals and objectives. The Consultant will implement standards of performance, safety policies and procedures and makes policy changes as necessary. The Consultant will consult with executives to whom he reports, to ensure policies adhere to local and federal regulations, insurance requirements and all legalities regardless of whether they be municipal, provincial, or federal.

Financials

With other top executives, the Consultant will develop financial budgets for the facilities the Consultant oversees. The Consultant will develop construction budgets and timelines and communicate these to the executives to whom he reports. The Consultant will review sales data, production and activity reports, financial statements and other information to ensure financial goals are achieved. The Consultant will be tasked to find ways to reduce operational costs and increase revenues. The Consultant will plan long-term financial goals for those facilities the Consultant oversees.

Management

The Consultant will direct all human resources and management activities, including determining staff needed to accomplish goals, select and hire new employees and assign responsibilities to the entire staff. The Consultant will oversee and manage goods used to produce medical marijuana at the facility such as sales merchandise, inventory or production materials. Operations managers also authorize, approve, and be responsible for all vendor and contract services for the facility.

Production

The Consultant will design, formulate, and implement the most advantageous, cost effective, and profitable marijuana grow and production facility possible, in accordance with best practices and always compliant with the Health Canada MMPR program.

a)

General Services. The Consultant shall serve the Company (and/or such subsidiary or subsidiaries of the company as the Company may from time to time require) in such consulting capacity or capacities as may from time to time be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company and shall perform such duties and exercise such powers as may from time be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors, as an independent contractor. The Consultant will work as needed with lawyers, partners, shareholders and other stakeholders as required by the Company.

b)

Contact Information. Prospective investor, partner, client, and shareholder information that is gathered and created by Consultant during the contract period shall become the property of the Company as it is utilized for the business purposes of the Company. Consultant is required to provide a copy of all such data to Company on a monthly basis by electronic file records.

2.          By virtue of this Agreement, the Company is expecting, and Consultant is accepting, the responsibility of working in a full-time managerial role which is not expected to average less than 40 hours per week, on behalf of the Company. Some weeks Consultant may be required to work more than 40 hours in order to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.

3.          During the time that this Agreement remains in effect, the Consultant shall not act in any capacity whatsoever, directly or indirectly for or for the betterment of any other non-joint-ventured company, partnership, or project that competes within North America within the same industry sector, without the Company’s prior written consent; with the sole permitted exception being the Consultant’s existing relationship with Chlormet Technologies /AAA Heidelberg (“CMT”). The Consultant agrees that he shall maintain his relationship to CMT in a manner which does not compromise his responsibilities nor knowledge of the Company; does not compromise any information as described in Section 11 of this Agreement; and further agrees that he shall not raise capital for CMT nor participate in day-to-day management of CMT outside of assisting in placing initial staff and responding to infrequent requests for advice from CMT management.

4.          The basic remuneration of the Consultant for its services hereunder shall be at the rate of three thousand three hundred and seventy five dollars (CDN$3,375) per month plus GST, together with any such increments or bonuses thereto as the CEO or the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time determine, payable the 30th day of each calendar month. The Company will negotiate in good faith with the Consultant a profit-sharing bonus once the facility is operational, designed to reward the Consultant for production goals yet to be established. The basic compensation covers that time required by the Consultant to fulfill his tasks.

The production facility is located in a municipality that has not yet given formal approval permitting marijuana production in accordance with the Health Canada MMPR; and the Consultant shall receive the second Share award once the municipality has given such approval. The third Share award shall be made when Health Canada has granted an MMPR license to the facility while it is co-owned by the Company. The fourth Share award shall be made when the first commercial harvest from the facility has been completed – a commercial harvest excludes test growing or non-commercial quantities. And a fifth Share award shall be made when the facility has reached CDN$5,000,000 in accumulated sales of medical marijuana grown within the facility.

FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION it is hereby agreed as follows:

1.        The Consultant shall provide Master Grower services and report to the Operations Manager, and periodically to Senior Executives of the Company, and perform such tasks in general including but not limited to the following:

Policies

The Consultant will implement standards of performance, safety policies and procedures as communicated to him by the Operations Manager. The Consultant will ensure procedures adhere to local and federal regulations, insurance requirements and all legalities regardless of whether they be municipal, provincial, or federal.

Financials

The Consultant will assist in the development of financial budgets for the facilities in which the Consultant is the designated Master Grower. The Consultant will review production and activity reports to assist in reaching production goals. The Consultant will be tasked to find ways to reduce operational costs and increase revenues.

Management

The Consultant will work with the Operations Manager to assist in determining staff required to accomplish goals, and providing oversight to the production staff. The Consultant will oversee and manage goods used to produce medical marijuana at the facility such as inventory or production materials.

Production

The Consultant will be the Master Grower for the Company, as that term is defined by Health Canada in the Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations. The Consultant is expected to be intimately familiar with the MMPR, which can be found at http://www.laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-2013-119/. The Consultant will design, formulate, and implement the most advantageous, cost effective, and profitable marijuana grow and production facility possible, in accordance with best practices and always compliant with the Health Canada MMPR program. The Consultant will be responsible, with the Operations Manager, for developing, practicing and enforcing all inventory control policies, employee safeguards and employee control programs when they are under the overall control of the Company.

a)

General Services. The Consultant shall serve the Company (and/or such subsidiary or subsidiaries of the company as the Company may from time to time require) in such consulting capacity or capacities as may from time to time be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors or senior management of the Company and shall perform such duties and exercise such powers as may from time be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors, as an independent contractor. The Consultant will work as needed with lawyers, partners, shareholders and other stakeholders as required by the Company.

   
b)

Contact and Production Information. Prospective client information, and all cloning, feeding, production, growing, cultivation, and harvesting techniques and procedures that are gathered and created by Consultant during the contract period shall become the property of the Company as it is utilized for the business purposes of the Company. Consultant is required to provide a copy of all such data and logs to Company on a monthly basis by electronic file records.

By virtue of this Agreement, the Company is expecting, and Consultant is accepting, the responsibility of working in a full-time production role which is not expected to average less than 40 hours per week, on behalf of the Company. Some weeks Consultant may be required to work more than 40 hours in order to fulfill the terms of this Agreement. During the time that this Agreement remains in effect, the Consultant shall not act in any capacity whatsoever, directly or indirectly for or for the betterment of any other non-joint-venture related company, partnership, or project that competes within North America within the same industry sector, without the Company’s prior written consent; with the sole permitted exception being the Consultant’s existing relationship with Chlormet Technologies (CMT) which is scheduled to cease upon CMT being awarded a Health Canada license and being staffed for production.

2.        By virtue of this Agreement, the Company is expecting, and Consultant is accepting, the responsibility of working in a full-time managerial role which is not expected to average less than 40 hours per week, on behalf of the Company.

The Company will negotiate in good faith with the Consultant a profit-sharing bonus once the facility is operational, designed to reward the Consultant for production goals yet to be established. The basic compensation covers that time required by the Consultant to fulfill his tasks.

5.        As described herein, awards of restricted shares of common stock to be issued in separate certificate form (the "Shares" or “Share”) shall be made based upon the required events and thresholds being achieved. The first Share award shall be made upon the mutual signing and execution of this agreement.
