--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.

NATURE OF RELATIONSHIP; INVENTIONS.

(a)

Independent Contractor Status.

i.

The relationship of the parties under this Agreement is one of independent
contractor, and no joint venture, partnership, agency, employer-employee, or
similar relationship is created in or by this Agreement.  Neither party may
assume or create obligations on the other party’s behalf, and neither party may
take any action that creates the appearance of such authority.

ii.

The Consultant has the sole right to control and direct the means, details,
manner, and method by which the Services will be performed, and the right to
perform the Services at any time, place, or location.  The Consultant or the
Consultant’s staff shall perform the Services, and the Company is not required
to hire, supervise, or pay any assistants to help the Consultant perform those
Services. The Consultant shall provide insurance coverage for himself and his
staff.

(b)

Inventions Retained and Licensed.  Attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement is a
list of all intellectual property that the Consultant made before his Agreement
with the Company (the “Prior Inventions”) that belong to the Consultant, that
relate to the Company’s proposed business, products, or research and
development, and that are not assigned to the Company under this Agreement.  If
no list is attached, the Consultant represents that there are no Prior
Inventions.  If disclosure of a Prior Invention would cause the Consultant to
violate an existing confidentiality agreement, the Consultant may not list the
Prior Invention in Exhibit B but shall instead provide the name of the
invention, a list of the party or parties to which it belongs, and an
explanation of why full disclosure was not given.  A space is provided in
Exhibit B for this purpose. If in the course of providing services to the
Company, the Consultant incorporates into a Company product, process, or machine
a Prior Invention owned by the Consultant or in which the Consultant has an
interest, the Company will be granted and have a nonexclusive, royalty-free,
irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to make, have made, modify, use, and
sell that Prior Invention as part of or in connection with that product,
process, or machine.

(c)

Company Inventions.  The Consultant  has no right or interest in any work or
product resulting from the Services the Consultant performs for the Company, or
any of the documents, reports, or other materials the Consultant creates in
connection with those Services (collectively, the “Company Inventions”), and has
no right to or interest in any copyright to the Company Inventions.  The Company
Inventions have been specially commissioned or ordered by the Company as “works
made-for-hire,” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act, and
the Company is therefore the author and the owner of all copyrights in the
Company Inventions.

(d)

Disclosure of Company Inventions.  The Consultant shall promptly disclose in
writing to the Company all Company Inventions that the Consultant has authored,
made, conceived, or first actually reduced to practice, alone or jointly with
others.

(e)

Assignment of Company Inventions.  If the Company Inventions or any parts of
those are deemed not to have been works made-for-hire, the Consultant hereby
assigns to the Company all interest the Consultant may have in the Company
Inventions, including all copyrights, publishing rights, rights to use,
reproduce, and otherwise exploit the Company Inventions in all formats or media
and all channels, whether now known or created in the future.

(f)

Patent and Copyright Registrations.  The Consultant shall assist the Company or
its designee, at the Company’s expense, to secure the Company’s rights in the
Company Inventions and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights, or other
intellectual property rights relating to the Company Inventions in all
countries, including by disclosing to the Company all pertinent information and
data with respect to those, by signing all applications, specifications, oaths,
assignments, and other instruments that the Company deems necessary to apply for
and obtain those rights and to assign and convey to the Company, its successors,
assigns, and nominees the exclusive interest in the Company Inventions, and any
copyrights, patents, mask work rights, or other intellectual property rights
relating to those.  When it is in the Consultant’s power to do so, the
Consultant shall sign or cause to be signed these instruments or papers after
the termination or expiration of this Agreement.  If the Consultant provides
assistance after the termination or expiration of this Agreement at the
Company’s request, the Company shall pay the Consultant a reasonable rate for
any time spent.  If because of the Consultant’s mental or physical incapacity or
for any other reason the Company cannot secure a signature to apply for or
pursue any application of any United States or foreign patents or copyright
registrations covering Company Inventions or original works of authorship
assigned to the Company, the Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as the
Consultant’s agents and attorneys in fact, to act for and on behalf of the
Consultant to sign and file those applications and to do all other lawfully
permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patent or copyright
registrations with the same legal force and effect as if they had been signed by
the Consultant.

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.

USE OF TRADEMARKS.

The Consultant may use, reproduce, and distribute the Company’s service marks,
trademarks, and trade names (if any) (collectively, the “Company Marks”) in
connection with the performance of the Services. Any goodwill received from this
use will accrue to the Company, which will remain the sole owner of the Company
Marks. The Consultant may not engage in activities or commit acts, directly or
indirectly, that may contest, dispute, or otherwise impair the Company’s
interest in the Company Marks.  The Consultant may not cause diminishment of
value of the Company Marks through any act or representation.  The Consultant
may not apply for, acquire, or claim any interest in any Company Marks, or
others that may be confusingly similar to any of them, through advertising or
otherwise. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, the
Consultant will have no further right to use the Company Marks, unless the
Company provides written approval for each such use.

6.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

(a)

Confidentiality.  During the Term, the Consultant may have access to or receive
certain information of or about the Company that the Company designates as
confidential or that, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, ought to
be treated as confidential by the Consultant (“Confidential Information”).
 Confidential Information includes information relating to the Company or its
current or proposed business, financial statements, budgets and projections,
customer identifying information, potential and intended customers, employers,
products, computer programs, specifications, manuals, software, analyses,
strategies, marketing plans, business plans, and other confidential information,
provided orally, in writing, by drawings, or by any other media.  The Consultant
will treat the Confidential Information as confidential and will not disclose it
to any third party or use it for any purpose but to fulfill his obligations in
this Agreement. In addition, the Consultant shall use due care and diligence to
prevent the unauthorized use or disclosure of such information.

(b)

Exceptions.  The obligations and restrictions in subsection (a) do not apply to
that part of the Confidential Information the Consultant demonstrates:

i.

was or becomes generally publically available other than as a result of a
disclosure by the Consultant in violation of this Agreement;

ii.

was or becomes available to the Consultant on a nonconfidential basis before its
disclosure to the Consultant by the Company, but only if:

A.

the source of such information is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with
the Company or is not otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to
the Consultant by a contractual, legal, fiduciary, or other obligation; and

B.

the Consultant provides the Company with written notice of his prior possession
either (I) before the effective date of this Agreement or (II) if the Consultant
later becomes aware (through disclosure to the Consultant) of any aspect of the
Confidential Information as to which the Consultant had prior possession,
promptly on the Consultant so becoming aware;

iii.

is requested or legally compelled (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests
for information or documents, subpoena, civil or criminal investigative demand,
or similar processes), or is required by a regulatory body, to be disclosed.
However, the Consultant shall:

A.

provide the Company with prompt notice of these requests or requirements before
making a disclosure so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order
or other appropriate remedy; and

B.

provide reasonable assistance to the Company in obtaining any protective order.

If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or the Company grants a
waiver under this Agreement, the Consultant may furnish that portion (and only
that portion) of the Confidential Information that, in the written opinion of
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Consultant is legally
compelled or otherwise required to disclose. However, the Consultant shall make
reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will
be accorded any part of the Confidential Information disclosed in this way; or

iv.

was developed by the Consultant independently without breach of this Agreement.

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)

Obligation to Maintain Confidentiality.

i.

Confidentiality. At all times during his work with the Company, the Consultant
shall hold in strictest confidence, and not use, except for the benefit of the
Company, or to disclose to any person, firm, or corporation without the prior
written authorization of the Board, any of the Company’s Confidential
Information.  

ii.

Term.  The Consultant shall maintain the confidentiality and security of the
Confidential Information until the earlier of: (i) such time as all Confidential
Information disclosed under this Agreement becomes publicly known and is made
generally available through no action or inaction of the Consultant or (ii) the
third anniversary of the termination of the Consultant’s work with the Company.
However, to the extent that the Company has disclosed information to the
Consultant that constitutes a trade secret under law, the Consultant shall
protect that trade secret for as long as the information qualifies as a trade
secret.

(d)

Remedy.  Money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this
section by the Consultant and, in addition to all other remedies, the Company
may seek (and may be entitled to) as a result of such breach, specific
performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy.

7.

REPORTING.

The Consultant shall report to the Chief Executive Officer or such other officer
or employee as may be designated by the Company.  The Consultant shall provide a
monthly written summary report to the Company on his progress.

8.

OTHER ACTIVITIES.

During the Term, the Consultant is free to engage in other independent
contracting activities, except that the Consultant may not accept work, enter
into contracts, or accept obligations inconsistent or incompatible with the
Consultant’s obligations or the scope of Services to be rendered for the Company
under this Agreement.

9.

RETURN OF PROPERTY.

Within five (5) days of the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement,
the Consultant shall return to the Company, retaining no copies or notes, all
Company products, samples, models, property, and documents relating to the
Company’s business including reports, abstracts, lists, correspondence,
information, computer files, computer disks, and other materials and copies of
those materials obtained by the Contractor during and in connection with his
work with the Company.  All files, records, documents, blueprints,
specifications, information, letters, notes, media lists, original artwork or
creative work, notebooks, and similar items relating to the Company’s business,
whether prepared by the Consultant or by others, remain the Company’s exclusive
property.

INDEMNIFICATION.

(a)

Consultant’s Indemnification of Company.  At all times after the Effective Date
of this Agreement, the Consultant shall indemnify the Company and its directors,
officers, shareholders, managers, employees, affiliates, subsidiaries,
successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) from all
damages, liabilities, expenses, claims, or judgments (including interest,
penalties, reasonable attorneys’ fees, accounting fees, and expert witness fees)
(collectively, the “Claims”) that any Company Indemnitee may incur and that
arise from:

i.

the Consultant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct arising from the
Contractor’s carrying out of his obligations under this Agreement;

ii.

the Consultant’s breach of any of his obligations or representations under this
Agreement; or

iii.

the Consultant’s breach of his express representation that he is an independent
contractor and in compliance with all applicable laws related to work as an
independent contractor. If a regulatory body or court of competent jurisdiction
finds that the Consultant is not an independent contractor or is not in
compliance with applicable laws related to work as an independent contractor,
based on the Consultant’s own actions, the Consultant will assume full
responsibility and liability for all taxes, assessments, and penalties imposed
against the Consultant or the Company resulting from that contrary
interpretation, including taxes, assessments, and penalties that would have been
deducted from the Consultant’s earnings if the Consultant had been on the
Company’s payroll and employed as a Company employee.

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Company’s Indemnification of Consultant.  At all times after the effective date

that the Consultant may incur arising from:

the Company’s operation of its business;

ii.

the Company’s breach or alleged breach of, or its failure or alleged failure to
perform under, any agreement to which it is a party; or

not be liable to the other party for, any delay or failure to perform its
obligations under this Agreement by reason of fire, earthquake, flood,
explosion, strike, riot, war, terrorism, or similar event beyond that party’s
reasonable control (each a “Force Majeure Event”). However, if a Force Majeure
Event occurs, the affected party shall, as soon as practicable:

(a)

notify the other party of the Force Majeure Event and its impact on performance
