Dear Mike:

are selected. You agree that the terms set out in the present letter agreement
will also govern any extension of such initial period by your reelection as a
member of the Board of Directors at any future annual general meetings at which
directors are selected on the same terms as those set out herein, for a period
of up to two (2) additional terms (for a total of up to three (3) years).

As compensation for your good faith efforts to promote the business interests of
the Corporation, the Corporation will grant you a monthly payment of four
thousand dollars ($4,000), provided, that you are still participating as a
Corporation Board Member as of each month end ("Remuneration").

In addition, subject to Board approval, the Corporation will grant you 325,000
options to purchase shares of the Corporation's common stock at the price of the
Corporation's common stock at the market close on that market-trading day

"Granted Options"). The Granted Options will vest in 12 equal portions (with any
fraction vesting with the last to vest of such portions). The first portion of
the Granted Options shall vest on that date three (3) months following the date
of the initial Board grant and each successive portion shall thereafter vest at
intervals of three (3) month.

You shall also be entitled, in accordance with the Corporation's applicable
policies and rules in force, to reimbursement of reasonable expenses which are
incurred (i) in traveling to meetings more than 1 hour away and (ii) in
performing your responsibilities hereunder to the extent that incurring such
expenses is pre-approved by the Corporation. The Corporation will also provide
you with the benefit of liability insurance as a member of the Corporation's
Board of Directors.
