3.             COMPENSATION.

The aggregate compensation payable during the Term pursuant to this Agreement is
$45,000, payable in a combination of cash and stock of the Company on the
following basis:

a.  
Restricted Common Stock: In consideration of the services to be rendered by
Advisor pursuant to this Agreement, Advisor shall be entitled to receive as
compensation $22,500 in the form of the Company’s common stock to be issued on a
monthly basis.  The number of shares of common stock of the Company shall be
based on a value equal to the per share price that the Company’s shares are to
be sold in the PIPE financing concurrent with the Company’s Alternative Public
Offering. Advisor acknowledges that the common stock has not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under any state securities
laws.  Advisor is familiar with the provisions of the Securities Act and Rule
144 thereunder and understands that restrictions governing sale
apply.  Commencing July 16, 2012, the date of this Agreement, the monthly common
stock shall be owed and will be issued at simultaneous with the PIPE financing
set forth above. All subsequent monthly issuances will be due on the first of
each month.

b.  
Cash: In consideration of the services to be rendered by Advisor pursuant to
this Agreement, Advisor shall receive $22,500 at the rate of $1,875 per month
with payments made on the first of each month. Commencing July 16, 2012, the
date of this Agreement, the $1,875 monthly shall be accrued and whatever balance
has accrued will be paid in full from the proceeds of the financing at the
closing of the Company’s initial acquisition and Alternative Public
Offering.  Subsequent payments following the closing will be due on the first of
each month.

4.             INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.

It is expressly agreed that Advisor is acting as an independent contractor in
performing its services hereunder, and this Agreement is not intended to, nor
does it create, an employer-employee relationship nor shall it be construed as
creating any joint venture or partnership between the Company and
Advisor.  Advisor shall be responsible for all applicable federal, state and
other taxes related to Advisor's consulting fee and Company shall not withhold
or pay any such taxes on behalf of Advisor, including without limitation social
security, federal, state and other local income taxes.  Since Advisor is acting
solely as an independent contractor under this Agreement, Advisor shall not be
entitled to insurance or other benefits normally provided by Company to its
employees.  Advisor shall be relying upon the Company to supply accurate data
and information without independent verification.

5.             ASSIGNMENT.

This Agreement is being entered into in reliance upon and in consideration of
the singular skill and qualifications of Advisor.  Neither Advisor nor the
Company shall voluntarily, or by operation of law assign or otherwise transfer
the obligations incurred on its part pursuant to terms of this Agreement without
the prior written consent of the other party.  Any attempt at assignment or
transfer by either party of its obligations hereunder, without such consent,
shall be null and void.

6.             CONFIDENTIALITY.

Advisor recognizes that during the course of Advisor's activities on behalf of
the Company, it will accumulate certain proprietary and confidential information
and trade secrets used in the Company's business and will have divulged to it
certain confidential and proprietary information and trade secrets about the
business, operations and prospects of the Company, which constitute valuable
business assets of the Company.  Advisor hereby acknowledges and agrees that
such information, except for information which is in the public domain prior to
Advisor’s receipt thereof, or which subsequently becomes part of the public
domain other than by Advisor’s breach of a confidentiality obligation, or which
Advisor can clearly demonstrate was in its possession prior to receipt thereof
from the Company and was developed by Advisor or received by Advisor from a
third-party without breach of such third-parties confidentiality obligations
with respect thereto (“Proprietary Information”) is confidential and proprietary
and constitutes trade secret information and the Proprietary Information belongs
to the Company and not to Advisor.  Advisor agrees, to the extent not prohibited
by law, that it shall not, at any time during or after the Term of this
Agreement and one year after the expiration or termination of this Agreement,
disclose, divulge or make known, directly or indirectly, to any person, or
otherwise use or exploit in any manner any Proprietary Information obtained by
Advisor under this Agreement, except in connection with and to the extent
required by its performance of its duties hereunder for the Company.  Upon
termination of this Agreement, Advisor shall deliver to Company all tangible
displays and repositories of Proprietary Information.

events:

be required by this Agreement to act as the agent of the Company or otherwise to
represent or make decisions for the Company.  All final decisions with respect
to acts of the Company or its affiliates, whether or not made pursuant to or in
reliance on information or advice furnished by Advisor hereunder, shall be those
