NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Consulting Services.

 

(a) During the term of this Agreement, Consultant is hereby retained by the Company on a non-exclusive basis to provide consulting services to the Company (the “Services”) including:

 

advising on strategic planning with respect to the development and expansion of the Company’s PPX business, including the establishment of strategic relationships in the marketing, processing and sales business segments; and

providing such other corporate advisory consulting services as management may reasonably request.

 

(b) Nothing hereunder shall require Consultant to devote a minimum number of hours per calendar month toward the performance of the Services. Unless otherwise agreed to by Consultant, the Services shall be performed by Consultant, in its sole discretion, at its principal place of business or other offices. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Services hereunder may be performed by any employee of or consultant to Consultant.

 

2. Term. The term of this Agreement shall be for a period of three (3) years commencing on the Effective Date (the “Term”).

 

 

 

 

3. Compensation. In consideration for the performance of the Services, the Company hereby agrees to issue to Consultant ten-year warrants to purchase 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $0.02 per Warrant Share, exercisable on a “cashless basis,” in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Warrants”).

 

4. Expenses. The Company also agrees to reimburse any pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Consultant in connection with the rendering of the Services. Such expenses shall be reimbursed subject to the submission of reasonable substantiation therefor and in compliance with the Company’s policies for expense reimbursement as are in effect from time to time during the Term.

 

5. Representations and Warranties of the Parties.

 

(a) The Company hereby represents and warrants to Consultant that:

(ii) This Agreement, upon execution and delivery of the same by the Company, will represent the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

(b) Consultant represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

(i) Consultant is acquiring the Warrants and the Warrant Shares for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling the Warrants and the Warrant Shares or any part thereof or interest therein. Consultant has made its own investigation of the Company and is fully familiar with the Company, its business, condition (financial or otherwise) and prospects. Consultant acknowledges and understands that the Warrants and Warrant Shares are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and may only be sold, pledged, or otherwise disposed of by Consultant without restriction pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

6. Confidentiality. Consultant agrees that all non-public information pertaining to the prior, current or contemplated business of the Company is valuable and confidential assets of the Company. Such information shall include, without limitation, information relating to customer lists, bidding procedures, intellectual property, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, financing techniques and sources and such financial statements of the Company as are not available to the public. Consultant, its officers, directors, employees, agents and shareholders shall hold all such information in trust and confidence for the Company and shall not use or disclose any such information for other than the Company’s business and shall be liable for damages incurred by the Company as a result of the use or disclosure of such information by Consultant, its officers, directors, employees, agents or shareholders for any purpose other than the Company’s business, except (a) where such information is publicly available or later becomes publicly available other than through a breach of the attached Agreement, or (b) where such information is subsequently lawfully obtained by Consultant from a third party or parties, or (iii) if such information is known to Consultant prior to the execution of the attached Agreement, or (iv) as may be required by law. The terms of this Paragraph shall survive the termination of the attached Agreement.

 

7. Independent Contractor. It is expressly understood and agreed that Consultant shall, at all times, act as an independent contractor with respect to the Company and not as an employee or agent of the Company, and nothing contained in the attached Agreement shall be construed to create a joint venture, partnership, association or other affiliation, or like relationship, between the parties. It is specifically agreed that the relationship is and shall remain that of independent parties to a contractual relationship and that Consultant shall have no right to bind the Company in any manner. In no event shall either party be liable for the debts or obligations of the other. Consultant shall have no claim against the Company for vacation pay, paid sick leave, retirement benefits, social security, worker’s compensation, health, disability, unemployment insurance benefits, or other employee benefits of any kind. Consultant understands and agrees that: (a) Consultant will not be treated as an employee of the Company for Federal tax purposes; (b) the Company will not withhold on Consultant’s behalf any sums for income tax, unemployment insurance, social security or any other withholding pursuant to any law or requirement of any governmental body, or make available any of the benefits afforded to employees of the Company; (c) all of such payments, withholdings or benefits, if any, are Consultant’s sole responsibility; and (d) Consultant will indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all loss or liability arising from its failure to make such payments, withholdings and benefits, if any. In the event the Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental agency should question or challenge Consultant’s independent contractor status, the parties hereby agree that both Consultant and the Company shall have the right to participate in any discussion or negotiation occurring with such agency or agencies, regardless of with whom or by whom such discussions or negotiations are initiated.

 

8. Amendment. No modification, waiver, amendment, discharge or change of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same is evidenced by a written instrument, executed by the party against which such modification, waiver, amendment, discharge, or change is sought.
