This consulting agreement ("Agreement"), effective as of September 2, 2011, is entered by and between BMX Development Corp. a Florida corporation ("the Company or “Company") and Wall Street Resources, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Consultant").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company is a public company with its shares of common stock trading under the symbol “BMXD” on the OTCQB exchange in the United States; and
WHEREAS, Consultant has experience in the area of security analysis, corporate finance, investor communications; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to engage the services of Consultant to provide written research coverage and consultation with the Company in matters concerning corporate finance and investor communications with existing shareholders, brokers, dealers and other investment professionals, as to the Company's current and proposed activities;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein set forth, and intending to be legally bound, the Company and Consultant agree as follows:
1) Term of Consultancy. The Company engages Consultant to act in a consulting capacity to the Company, and Consultant agrees to provide services to the Company commencing on the date first set forth above and ending twelve months later (the “term of this Agreement”). The Company retains the right to terminate the agreement at any time with written notice.
2) Duties of Consultant. The Consultant will generally provide the following consulting services (the “Services”) during the term of this Agreement:
a) Write and disseminate a comprehensive Research Report and updates upon material events regarding the Company to shareholders, brokers, dealers and other investment community professionals and the general investing public within the Consultant's network;
b) Write and distribute Equity Notes when applicable during contract period;
c) Create and update a minimum of four Fact Sheets or Summary Reports;
d) Include a company write up in 12 monthly newsletters;
e) Include a company write up in 240 daily newsletters;
f) Featured the company on WSR’s website with dedicated landing page;
g) Host conference calls (company must cover telecommunications expenses).
h) Create, maintain and fulfill requests for investor kits.
i) Edit and submit press releases (two per month included in price).
j) Manage all incoming investor calls and emails.
3) Allocation of Time and Energies. The Consultant will perform the Services in a professional manner in accordance with accepted industry standards and in compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations. Although no specific hours-per-day requirement will be required, the parties acknowledge and agree that a disproportionately large amount of the effort to be extended and the costs to be incurred by the Consultant, and the benefits to be received by the Company, are to be expected to occur upon and shortly after, and in any event, within two months of the effectiveness of this Agreement. It is explicitly understood that Consultant's performance of its duties hereunder will in no way be measured by the price of the Company's common stock, nor the trading volume of the Company's common stock.
4) Remuneration. As full and complete compensation for Consultant’s agreement to perform the Services, the Company shall compensate the Consultant as follows:
a) For undertaking this engagement and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company agrees to issue and deliver to the Consultant a "Commencement Bonus", payable in the form of $5,000 in cash and 60,000 shares of the Company's 144 restricted Common Stock ("Common Stock") and a monthly retainer of $2,500 in cash. The 144 restricted Common Stock portion of the Commencement Bonus shall be issued to the Consultant immediately following the execution of this agreement and shall, when issued to the Consultant, be fully paid and non-assessable. The cash portion of the commencement bonus is due within 30 after the execution of this agreement. The first payment of the monthly retainer of $2,500 is due on October 1, 2011 and the remaining payments are due on the first of the month for the term the contract is to remain in force. The Company understands and agrees that Consultant has forgone significant opportunities to accept this engagement and the Company derives substantial benefit from the execution of this Agreement and the ability to establish its relationship with Consultant. The shares of Common Stock issued as a Commencement Bonus, therefore, constitute payment for Consultant's agreement to consult with the Company and are a nonrefundable and non-ratable retainer (with the exception of the provisions set forth in Section 14 below). Such Shares are not a prepayment for future services. If the Company attempts to terminate this Agreement prior to the expiration of its term for any reason whatsoever, it is agreed and understood that Consultant will not be requested or demanded by the Company to return any of the Shares paid to it hereunder.
b) Consultant acknowledges that the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the "Shares") have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and accordingly are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Act. As such, the shares may not be resold or transferred unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such a resale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of Rule 144 of the Act. Consultant agrees to a 12 month lock up provision from the effective date of this agreement.
5) Expenses. Consultant agrees to pay for all its expenses (phone, labor, etc.), other than extraordinary items for which the Company will reimburse Consultant. Such extraordinary items include postage and printing costs for IR kits, travel and entertainment required by/or specifically requested by the Company, luncheons or dinners for large groups of investment professionals, mass faxing to a sizable percentage of the Company's constituents, investor conference calls, print advertisements in publications, and like expenses which must be approved by the Company prior to its incurring an obligation for reimbursement.
6) Indemnification.
a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Consultant, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, related to or arising out of any breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement and/or the Company’s actions in connection with the transactions and/or activities contemplated herein.
b) Consultant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Company, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, related to or arising out of any breach by Consultant of its obligations under this Agreement and/or the Consultant’s actions in connection with the transactions and/or activities contemplated herein.
7) Representations. The Company warrants and represents that all oral communications, written documents or materials furnished to Consultant are accurate, and the Consultant warrants and represents that all communications by Consultant with the public, with respect to the financial affairs, operations, profitability and strategic planning of the Company, will be in accordance with information provided to it by the Company. The Consultant may rely upon the accuracy of the information provided by the Company without independent investigation. Consultant represents that it is not required to maintain any licenses and registrations under federal or any state regulations necessary to perform the Services set forth herein. Consultant acknowledges that to the best of its knowledge, the performance of the Services will not violate any rule or provision of any regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Consultant.
8) Status as Independent Contractor. Consultant’s engagement pursuant to this Agreement shall be as independent contractor, and not as employee, officer or other agent of the Company. Neither party to this Agreement shall represent or hold itself out to be the employer or employee of the other. Consultant further acknowledges the consideration provided hereinabove is a gross amount of consideration and that the Company will not withhold from such consideration any amounts as to income taxes, social security payments or any other payroll taxes. All such income taxes and other such payment shall be made or provided for by Consultant and the Company shall have no responsibility or duties regarding such matters. Neither the Company nor the Consultant possesses the authority to bind each other in any agreements, without the express written consent of the entity to be bound.
9) Attorneys' Fees. If any legal action(s) or any arbitration or other proceeding(s) is brought for the enforcement or interruption of the Agreement, or because of alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with or related to this Agreement, the successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's' fees and other costs in connection with that action(s) or proceeding(s), in addition to any other relief to which they may be entitled.
10) Waiver. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by such other party.
