This “Commencement Bonus” shall be fully paid and non-assessable and stock certificates representing the Commencement Bonus shall be issued and delivered to Consultant within 30 days of execution of this Agreement. Additionally, the Company agrees to pay Consultant the sum of $10,000.00 cash per month due and payable on the 2^nd of each month of this Agreement with the first such payment due on August 2, 2010.

(b) The Company agrees that the Consultant may, in its sole discretion, extend this agreement for a second six month term beginning on February 3, 2011 and ending on August 3, 2011 and the Company agrees to issue, or have issued to the Consultant an additional “Commencement Bonus” of 1,000,000 (One Million) shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) to be issued and delivered to the Consultant within 30 days of the executed agreement extension. Consultant Agrees to notify the Company, in written or electronic form, of its intention to extend the agreement prior to August 2, 2011 and the Company Agrees that, upon this notification, an addendum to this consulting agreement containing the provisions of the agreement extension will be made and ratified by both the Consultant and the Company.

(c) Consultant agrees that the Company may, in its sole discretion, cause one or more shareholders of the Company to deliver any of or all of the Shares to be issued and delivered to Consultant hereunder.

4.2 The Company understands and agrees that Consultant has foregone significant opportunities to accept this engagement and that the Company derives substantial benefit from the execution of this Agreement and the ability to announce its relationship with Consultant. The Commencement Bonus, therefore, constitutes payment for Consultant’s agreement to consult to the Company and is a nonrefundable, non-apportionable, and non-ratable retainer and is not a prepayment for future services. If the Company decides to terminate this Agreement prior to February 2, 2011, 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 of Common Stock paid to it as Commencement Bonus referred to in paragraph 4.1 hereunder.

Consultant agrees and understands that if during the term of this Agreement, Consultant performs substantial services for any direct competitor of the Company, then the Shares issued to Consultant hereunder will be forfeited.

4.3 Consultant agrees that it will not sell or transfer any of these Shares issued to it hereunder prior to the earlier of February 2, 2011 or the termination of this Agreement by the Company.

4.4 Company warrants that the Shares issued to Consultant under this Agreement by the Company shall be or have been validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and that the Company’s board of directors has or shall have duly authorized the issuance and any transfer of them to Consultant.
