Mr. Steve Heins

Subject: Consulting Letter Agreement – Terms of Engagement and Conditions
 
Dear Steve:
 
This letter agreement ("Letter Agreement"), is effective as of the date hereof,
except for payments which shall be deferred until a mutually agreed to date in
the future, and shall serve as the basis of an independent contractor consulting
relationship between you, Steve Heins ("Consultant") and China Wi-Max
Communications, Inc. ("CHWM")
 
CHWM envisions approximately twelve (12) primary areas where you may be engaged
with the expectation of compensation as a Consultant, including:
 
 
·
Focus communications, public relations and investor relations in the U.S.
market, with an initial emphasis on the IR component of the "CHVVM story";

 
·
Establish "Thought Leadership" role for CHWM;

 
·
Establish CHWM's officers and employees' areas of expertise to be used for
quotes in new releases and potential news stories;

 
·
Produce Monthly Newsletters for current investors, analysts, financial media and
other interested parties;

 
·
Produce an internal newsletter to make certain that every member of CHWM is well
informed on all things "CHWM" related;

 
·
Produce a series of up-dated press releases that recap where CHWM currently is
in development;

 
·
Produce a news release for every milestone reached by CHWM going forward;

 
·
Tell much of CHWM's story through its customers, which makes every new customer
a local news story;

 
·
Identify all media outlets, editorial boards and reporters who cover
international technology/broadband stories and issues;

 
·
Create an ongoing database or, in some cases, databases for media outlets,
reporters and editors for pertinent stories and news releases;

 
·
Write Op-Ed articles on broadband issues for national and international
consumption, which should include contributions of CHWM officers and employees
with appropriate attribution of articles; and

 
·
Look for speaking engagements and conference opportunities for senior CHWM
personnel.

 
CHWM reserves the right to expand or contract the scope of services set forth
above at any time without penalty. All work will be performed to mutually agreed
output. It is possible that over time, and based upon success in the
above-referenced matters, in the sole judgment of CHWM, that CHWM may decide to
hire you as a full or part-time employee fulfilling a similar (or expanded)
role. However, that decision has not yet been made and this Letter Agreement
should not be construed as an "offer" to be employed at CHWM. Neither the making
of this Letter Agreement nor the performance of its provisions shall be
construed to constitute either of the parties as an agent, employee, partner,
joint venturer or legal representative of the other. Each party acknowledges
that it has no right or authority to obligate or represent the other, nor to
bind the other in any manner whatsoever. Consultant shall at all times be deemed
to be an independent contractor, shall bear all tax consequences associated with
entering into this Letter Agreement, and shall perform its obligations under
this Letter Agreement in his own name and for his own account and risk, and
Consultant shall have no right or authority to assume or create any obligation
or responsibility, whether expressed or implied, on behalf of or in the name of
CHWM without written, or electronic authorization. CHWM agrees to review the
terms of this Letter Agreement at least quarterly upon your request.
