Exhibit 10.1

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into as of July 1, 2011 by and between
Allen D. Allen (“Consultant”) and CytoDyn, Inc., a Colorado corporation
(“Company”), sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “parties” or
singularly as a “party.”

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company was formed pursuant to the laws of the State of Colorado
and is presently in existence and in good standing, and in view of Consultant’s
retirement from the Company seeks to have certain services described herein
provided by Consultant; and

WHEREAS, Consultant acting as an independent contractor wishes to provide
certain services to the Company; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto believe it to be in their best interests to create a
definite and certain independent contractor relationship under the terms and
conditions herein set forth;

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Nature of Agreement: Company hereby retains Consultant to provide certain
consulting services as more specifically described in Exhibit A, attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference (collectively, the “Services”). Consultant
hereby agrees to be retained as an independent contractor, and to perform the
Services on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Although Consultant
is required to timely perform the above-described Services for Company,
Consultant will determine the methods, details and means of performing these
Services. Consultant represents and warrants that he will personally perform
these Services. Consultant further represents and warrants that he will perform
the Services required under this Agreement in accordance with the highest degree
of professional and business acumen. Consultant will make himself available to
the Company’s Director of Scientific Information or the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer at reasonable times upon reasonable advance notice. Company
acknowledges that Consultant may have limited or no ability to travel due to
health concerns, and a failure to travel due to health constraints shall not be
a breach hereof. Company further agrees that, except for information reasonably
necessary to be provided to Consultant in connection with the performance of
Services by Consultant, the Company will not disclose material, non-public
information regarding the Company to Consultant. In the event the Company
believes such material, non-public information should be provided to Consultant
in connection with the performance of the Services, Company shall notify
Consultant in advance and consult with Consultant in good faith to determine if
such disclosure can be avoided. Consultant will not be subject to selling
windows applicable to officers, directors and policy makers of the Company.
Nevertheless, Consultant will not trade in the Company’s securities so long as
Consultant is in possession of material, non-public information regarding the
Company, except the Consultant shall be permitted to sell Company securities to
the Company, to persons with equal information and pursuant to 10b-5 plans.

EXHIBIT “C”

In this Exhibit C, “I,” “my” or “me” refers to Consultant.

1. The terms of this Exhibit C will apply to my consulting relationship with the
Company. If that consulting relationship ends and the Company, within a year
thereafter, either employs me or re-engages me as a consultant, I agree that
this Exhibit C will also apply to such later employment or consulting
relationship, unless the Company and I otherwise agree in writing. Any such
employment or consulting relationship between the Company and me, whether
commenced prior to, upon or after the date of the Agreement to which this
Exhibit C is attached, is referred to herein as the “Relationship.”

2. Confidential Information.

(a) Protection of Information. I agree, at all times during the term of the
Relationship and thereafter, to hold in strictest confidence, and not to use,
except for the benefit of the Company to the extent necessary to perform my
obligations to the Company under the Relationship, and not to disclose to any
person, firm, corporation or other entity, without written authorization from
the Company in each instance, any Confidential Information (as defined below)
that I already have obtained or that I obtain or have access to during the term
of the Relationship, whether or not during working hours, until such
Confidential Information becomes publicly and widely known and made generally
available through no wrongful act of mine or of others who were under
confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved. I further agree
not to make copies of such Confidential Information except as authorized by the
Company.

(b) Confidential Information. I understand that “Confidential Information” means
information and physical material not generally known or available outside the
Company and information and physical material entrusted to the Company in
confidence by third parties. Confidential Information includes, without
limitation: (i) Company Inventions (as defined below); (ii) technical data,
trade secrets, know-how, research, product or service ideas or plans, software
codes and designs, developments, inventions, laboratory notebooks, processes,
formulae, techniques, biological materials, test resulting mask works,
engineering designs and drawings, hardware configuration information, lists of,
or information relating to, employees and consultants of the Company (including,
but not limited to, the names, contact information, jobs, compensation, and

to, suppliers and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the
Company on whom I called or with whom I became acquainted during the
Relationship), price lists, pricing methodologies, cost data, market share data,
marketing plans, licenses, contract information, business plans, financial
forecasts, historical financial data, budgets or other business information

(c) Third Party Information. The agreements in this Paragraph 2 are intended to
be for the benefit of the Company and any third party that has entrusted
information or physical material to the Company in confidence.

(d) Other Rights. The terms in this Exhibit C are intended to supplement, and
not to supersede, any rights the Company may have in law or equity with respect
to the protection of trade secrets or confidential or proprietary information.

3. Ownership of Inventions.

(a) Inventions Retained and Licensed. Except as set forth on Annex I, I
represent that there are no Inventions (as defined below) that belong solely to
me or belong to me jointly with others, and that relate in any way to any of the
Company’s proposed businesses, products or research and development, and which
are not assigned to the Company hereunder.

(b) Use or Incorporation of Inventions. If in the course of the Relationship, I
use or incorporate into a product, process or machine any Invention not covered
by Paragraph 3(d) of this Exhibit C in which I have an interest, I will promptly
so inform the Company. Whether or not I give such notice, I hereby irrevocably
grant to the Company a nonexclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free, assumable,
perpetual, worldwide license, with right to transfer and to sublicense, to
practice and exploit such Invention and to make, have made, copy, modify, make
derivative works of, use, sell, import, and otherwise distribute under all
applicable intellectual property rights without restriction of any kind.

(c) Inventions. I understand that “Inventions” means discoveries, developments,
concepts, designs, ideas, know how, improvements, inventions, trade secrets
and/or original works of authorship, whether or not patentable, copyrightable or
otherwise legally protectable. I understand this includes, but is not limited
to, any new product, machine, article of manufacture, biological material,
method, procedure, process, technique, use, equipment, device, apparatus,
system, compound, formulation, composition of matter, design or configuration of
any kind, or any improvement thereon. I understand that “Company Inventions”
means any and all Inventions that I may solely or jointly author, discover,
develop, conceive, or reduce to practice during the period of the Relationship,
except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 3(g) below.

(d) Assignment of Company Inventions. I agree that I will promptly make full
written disclosure to the Company, will hold in trust for the sole right and
benefit of the Company, and hereby assign to the Company, or its designee, all
my right, title and interest throughout the world in and to any and all Company
Inventions. I hereby waive and irrevocably quitclaim to the Company or its
designee any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that I now have or may
hereafter have for infringement of any and all Company Inventions. In the event
my Relationship with the Company is at any time determined to be that of an
employee for the purposes of applicable state labor codes, or if the “work for
hire” doctrine applies on other grounds to Company Inventions that I create
during the Relationship, I further acknowledge that all Company Inventions that
are made by me (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during
the period of the Relationship are “works made for hire” (to the greatest extent
permitted by applicable law) and are compensated by my consulting fee.

Page 10

 

(e) Maintenance of Records. I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current
written records of all Company Inventions made by me (solely or jointly with
others) during the term of the Relationship. The records may be in the form of
notes, sketches, drawings, flow charts, electronic data or recordings,
laboratory notebooks, or any other format. The records will be available to and
remain the sole property of the Company at all times. I agree not to remove such
records from the Company’s place of business except as expressly permitted by
Company policy which may, from time to time, be revised at the sole election of
the Company for the purpose of furthering the Company’s business. I agree to
deliver all such records (including any copies thereof) to the Company at the
time of termination of the Relationship as provided for in Paragraphs 4 and 5.

(f) Patent and Copyright Rights. I agree to assist the Company, or its designee,
at its expense, in every proper way to secure the Company’s, or its designee’s,
rights in the Company Inventions and any copyrights, patents, trademarks, mask
work rights, moral rights, or other intellectual property rights relating
thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to the Company or its
designee of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the
execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments, recordations,
and all other instruments which the Company or its designee shall deem necessary
in order to apply for, obtain, maintain and transfer such rights, or if not
transferable, waive such rights, and in order to assign and convey to the
Company or its designee, and any successors, assigns and nominees the sole and
exclusive right, title and interest in and to such Company Inventions, and any
copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights
relating thereto. I further agree that my obligation to execute or cause to be
executed, when it is in my power to do so, any such instrument or papers shall
continue during and at all times after the end of the Relationship and until the
expiration of the last such intellectual property right to expire in any country
of the world. I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its
duly authorized officers and agents as my agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for
and in my behalf and stead to execute and file any such applications and to do
all other lawfully permitted acts to further the application for, prosecution,
issuance, maintenance or transfer of letters of patents, copyright, mask work
and other registrations related to such Company Inventions. This power of
attorney is coupled with an interest and shall not be affected by my subsequent
incapacity.

(g) Exception to Assignments. I understand that the Company Inventions will not
include, and the provisions of this Exhibit C requiring assignment of inventions
to the Company do not apply to, any invention which qualifies fully for
exclusion under the provisions of applicable state law, if any. In order to
assist in the determination of which inventions qualify for such exclusion, I
will advise the Company promptly in writing, during and after the term of the
Relationship, of all Inventions solely or jointly conceived or developed or
reduced to practice by me during the period of the Relationship.

(h) Limitations. For purposes of this Agreement (as well as the attached
Consulting Agreement and exhibits and Annexes associated with this Agreement or
the Consulting Agreement), the term “Unrelated Inventions” means an Invention
that meets each of the following criteria: the Invention is unrelated to the
business or research of the Company as presently conducted or as conducted
during the term of this Agreement; to Consultant’s Services under this
Agreement; to biotechnology; and to Pharma. The Company acknowledges that the

 

10

Consulting Agreement

7/18/2011

Page 11

 

Company does not acquire any interest in or to Unrelated Inventions under this
Agreement, except as may be specified in Section 3(b) of this Exhibit C. For the
avoidance of doubt, (a) the term “Unrelated Inventions” includes non-scientific
Inventions of Consultant; and (b) this Section 3(h) (Limitations) shall be read
in connection with Annex I, and the further clarifications set out in Annex I.

4. Company Property; Returning Company Documents. I acknowledge and agree that I
have no expectation of privacy with respect to the Company’s telecommunications,
networking or information processing systems (including, without limitation,
files, e-mail messages and/or attachments, and voice messages) and that my
activity and any files or messages on or using any of those systems may be
monitored and/or recorded at any time without notice (Consultant understands
that by this provision, he gives the Company consent and permission to listen,
monitor and/or record his communications using the Company’s telecommunications,
networking or information processing systems). I further agree that any property
situated on the Company’s premises and owned by the Company, including disks and
other storage media, filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject to
inspection by Company personnel at any time with or without notice. I agree
that, at the time of termination of the Relationship, I will deliver to the
Company (and will not keep in my possession, recreate or deliver to anyone else)
any and all devices, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists,
correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, laboratory
notebooks, materials, flow charts, equipment, other documents or property, or
reproductions of any of the aforementioned items developed by me pursuant to the
Relationship or otherwise belonging to the Company, its successors or assigns.

5. Termination Certification. In the event of the termination of the
Relationship, I understand that I may be required by the Company to sign a
termination certification; however, my failure to sign and deliver the
termination certification shall in no way diminish my continuing obligations
under this Exhibit C.

6. Notice to Third Parties. I understand and agree that the Company may, with or
without prior notice to me and during or after the term of the Relationship,
notify third parties of my agreements and obligations under this Exhibit C.

7. Solicitation of Employees, Consultants and Other Parties. As described above,
I acknowledge and agree that the Company’s Confidential Information includes
information relating to the Company’s employees, consultants, customers and
others, and that I will not use or disclose such Confidential Information except
as authorized by the Company. I further agree as follows:

(a) Employees, Consultants. I agree that during the term of the Relationship,
and for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the termination of
the Relationship for any reason, whether with or without cause, I shall not
either directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of the
Company’s employees or consultants to terminate their relationship with the
Company, or attempt to solicit, induce, recruit, encourage or take away
employees or consultants of the Company, either for myself or for any other
person or entity.

(b) Other Parties. I agree that during the term of the Relationship, and for a
period of twelve (12) months immediately following the termination of the
Relationship for any reason, whether with or without cause, I shall not use any
Confidential Information of the Company to negatively influence any of the
Company’s existing or prospective clients, customers, business partners or
suppliers from purchasing Company products or services or otherwise doing
business with the Company, or to solicit or influence or attempt to influence
any client, customer or other person either directly or indirectly, to direct
any purchase of products and/or services to any person, firm, corporation,
institution or other entity in competition with the business of the Company, and
I shall never use trade secrets for any purpose.

8. No Change to Duration of Relationship. I understand and acknowledge that this
Exhibit C does not alter, amend or expand upon any rights I may have to continue
in the consulting relationship with, or in the duration of my consulting
relationship with, the Company under any existing agreements between the Company
and me, including without limitation the Consulting Agreement, or under
applicable law.

9. Representations and Covenants.

(a) Facilitation of Agreement. I agree to execute promptly, both during and
after the end of the Relationship, any proper oath, and to verify any proper
document, required to carry out the terms of this Exhibit C, upon the Company’s
written request to do so.

(b) No Conflicts. I represent that my performance of all the terms of this
Exhibit C does not and will not breach any agreement I have entered into, or
will enter into, with any third party, including without limitation any
agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information or materials acquired by
me in confidence or in trust prior to or during the Relationship. I will not
disclose to the Company or use any inventions, confidential or non-public
proprietary information or material belonging to any previous client, employer
or any other party. I will not induce the Company to use any inventions,
confidential or non-public proprietary information, or material belonging to any
previous client, employer or any other party. I agree not to enter into any
written or oral agreement that conflicts with the provisions of this Exhibit C.
