EXHIBIT 10.1

2009 Consulting Services Agreement

This Agreement is entered into as of the date signed below, by and between

St. Bernard Software, Inc. ("St. Bernard"), a Delaware corporation, with offices
at 15015 Avenue of Science, San Diego, California 92128 and

(You) Softworks Group Pty Ltd,  located at 97 Bliesner Road Obum Obum Qld 4309
Australia, Phone Number: +61 400 993 339  Facsimile Number:  +61 7 3102 6277
(TAX ID:_ABN 70 056 091 322, reporting to Australian Taxation Office).

St. Bernard desires to retain You as an independent contractor to perform
consulting services for St. Bernard from time to time, and You are willing to
perform such services on the basis set forth more fully below.

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, St. Bernard and You
agree as follows:

1.  Services.

You agree to perform the services and create and provide the deliverables,
including source code, described in one or more Exhibits A (i.e., A-1, A-2,
etc.), as mutually agreed upon and attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference ("Services"), in a timely and workmanlike manner, according to
the Schedule of Work set forth in such Exhibits A.  Individual engagements may
be initiated during the term of this Agreement by St. Bernard’s submission and
Your acceptance of a Schedule of Work in the form of an Exhibit A-1.  You will
perform the specified Services under the general direction of St. Bernard, but
You will determine, in Your sole discretion, the manner and means by which the
Services are accomplished, subject to the express condition that You will at all
times comply with applicable law.  Shipment of tangible deliverables will be
made FOB St. Bernard's offices in San Diego, California or as otherwise
directed.

This Agreement will commence on the date first written above and, unless
terminated as provided in Section 12 below, shall remain in effect indefinitely
for the purpose of enabling successive individual engagements as We may mutually
agree.

2.  Payment for Services.

A.  As full compensation and consideration for the Services and Your other
obligations set forth herein, St. Bernard will pay You the fee(s) stated in the
applicable Exhibit A, up to the maximum amount stated therein.  Fees may be
stated as fixed fees or as hourly fees, as We may mutually agree for any
engagement.  Any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by You in connection with
providing the Services will be reimbursed only if approved in writing (on
Exhibit A or otherwise) by St. Bernard prior to incurring such expenses.

B.  You may invoice St. Bernard one calendar month in advance for Services to be
performed.  You may also invoice St. Bernard for reimbursable expenses incurred
by You..  With each invoice You will provide a project report which contains an
explanation of the work performed and a project log that summarizes the overall
progress of the project to date and any problems that require St. Bernard's
assistance to resolve as well as supporting documentation for reimbursable
expenses.  Subject to St. Bernard's approval, St. Bernard will pay Your
invoice(s) net 7 days from date of issuance.

C.  You agree to promptly pay Your employees and agents for all work
performed.  If You do not pay Your employees and agents, on a current basis, for
work performed on behalf of St. Bernard, such nonpayment will be deemed a
material breach of this Agreement which will entitle St. Bernard to contract
directly with such persons on a consulting basis.

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

 
3.  Right to Review.

A.  If any major milestones are set forth in Exhibit A, St. Bernard will review
and approve Your performance to date at such milestones before You proceed to
the next stage. At each milestone St. Bernard will review materials, provide
directions for any revisions, and authorize You to proceed.

B.  If at any time St. Bernard directs any changes in the scope of  the  project
(including milestone revisions) which materially increase or decrease the effort
required to comply with the provisions of Exhibit A, We will negotiate an
appropriate adjustment of the previously agreed fees in good faith.

C.  St. Bernard reserves the right to reject the Services at any time if, in its
reasonable judgment, the Services do not conform with, or accomplish the
objectives set forth in, Exhibit A.  If St. Bernard rejects the Services, St.
Bernard will so notify You, and You will have 10 working days to submit new
deliverables and/or perform new Services which have corrected the omissions and
made the revisions noted by St. Bernard.  If You have not submitted such new
material as indicated, St. Bernard may terminate this Agreement or the
applicable Exhibit A as set forth in Section 13 below.

4. Conflicting Obligations.

You represent and warrant that neither You nor Your employees or agents, if any,
is under any pre-existing obligation or obligations inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement.  You warrant that You have the right to disclose
and use all ideas, processes, designs, data, and other information which You
will disclose or use in the performance of this Agreement.  You also agree to
disclose to St. Bernard any actual or potential financial interest that You may
have with respect to, or resulting from, any recommendations or advice that You
may give to St. Bernard under this Agreement.

5.  Ownership and Rights in Work Product.

A.  All designs, discoveries, inventions, products, computer programs (including
source code), procedures, improvements, developments, drawings, specifications,
data, memoranda, notes, documents, manuals, information, and other materials,
made, conceived or developed by You, alone or with others, which result from or
relate to the Services which are delivered to and accepted by St. Bernard, and
any derivatives thereof ("Work Product"), and all such materials which You may
receive from St. Bernard while performing Services, shall be the sole property
of St. Bernard.  You agree to promptly disclose all such Work Product to St.
Bernard and to place a copyright designation in favor of St. Bernard on all such
Work Product.  You acknowledge that all Work Product developed under this
Agreement is “work made for hire”, and You hereby make, without further
consideration, a present assignment of all right, title and interest in and to

by St. Bernard, to apply for and to execute, any applications and/or assignments
reasonably necessary to obtain any patent, copyright, trademark, or other
statutory protection for such Work Product in St. Bernard's name as St. Bernard
deems appropriate.  St. Bernard will compensate You for time expended in
satisfaction of this requirement at a reasonable hourly rate (not to exceed the
rate for the applicable Exhibit A) if such effort requires a significant amount
of Your time.

6. Confidentiality.

A.  In connection with Your performance under this Agreement, St. Bernard will
disclose to You certain information which St. Bernard deems to be valuable and
proprietary, including, but not limited to, documents and oral discussion of St.
Bernard's technology, strategy, operations, internal corporate information,
methods and procedures.   In addition, You understand that any Work Product
developed hereunder is, unless registered for another form of legal protection,
a trade secret of St. Bernard.  You agree that all Work Product and all oral
communications and written materials received by You from St. Bernard hereunder
in performance of this Agreement or any part thereof, as well as any such
information provided to You in the course of any engagement by, or on behalf of
any St. Bernard customer or business partner, is and will remain, the
