                        Notwithstanding the date of signature hereof, the Employee shall be deemed to have been employed by the Company as Financial Director from his actual “commencement of employment date” which is still to be agreed.

                        3.5
 	
                        The Employee’s normal place of work (excluding the extensive business travelling he is required to undertake in Europe and North America) shall be as the Company may from time to time direct.

                        6.2
 	
                        The Employee shall be entitled to be paid a pro-rated bonus in United States Dollars in respect of this Contract of Employment, with regard to the initial annual bonus period from 1st April 2007 and ending 31st March 2008, and thereafter in respect of each 12 month period of employment with the Company, commencing on 1st April each year and ending on 31 March (“Bonus Period”) if  (a) for the “Company” portion, if the ruling price of ordinary shares in the Company for that bonus period as defined in 6.4, is higher than the base price for that Employment Period, as defined in 6.3 and (b) for the “Individual” portion if his performance in achieving objectives and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are
directly aligned with the Company’s Business Strategy and agreed with the C.E.O. are met, at or above, a satisfactory level, see 6.7..
 





	
                        6.3
 	
                        For the Company portion of the bonus, the base price shall be in the case of each of the bonus periods in respect of which a bonus is to be calculated, the weighted average price of ordinary shares in the Company quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market over the last calendar month preceding the Bonus period in respect of which the bonus is being calculated.
 





	
                        6.4
 	
                        The ruling price for each Bonus period shall be the weighted average price of ordinary shares in the Company quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market over the last calendar month of that Bonus period.
 





	
                        6.5
 	
                        Should a bonus become payable to the Employee in respect of any bonus period, then the amount of such bonus shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula for the Company performance portion of the bonus:

                        B = 33,300 (P2 - P1)
 	
                         
 	
                         
 	
                         
 
	
                        Where 
 	
                        B
 	
                         
 	
                        is the amount of the bonus, in United States Dollars;
 
	
                         
 	
      P2
 	
                         
 	
                        is the ruling price for the bonus period in respect of which the bonus is being calculated, as defined in 6.4, and
 
	
                         
 	
                        P1
 	
                         
 	
                        is the base price for the bonus period in respect of which the bonus is being calculated.
 





	
                        6.6
 	
                        In the above formula, the factor 33,300 (Thirty Three thousand, three  hundred) represents a fictional shareholding of 33 300 (Thirty three thousand, three hundred) shares in the share capital of the Company as presently constituted. Should the ordinary shares in the Company which are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market be consolidated or sub-divided, then the ruling price and the base price stipulated in 6.2 and the formula in 6.5 shall be modified by agreement between the parties in such a way as to give effect to the original intention of the parties.   In the event that the parties do not agree on the terms of such modification, the matter shall be referred to the Company’s Remuneration Committee, whose decision shall be final and binding upon the parties. 
 





	
                        6.7
 	
                        The “Individual” portion of the bonus shall be decided on following the annual assessment of the employee’s performance by the C.E.O. and Remuneration Committee in terms of the Employer’s performance management scheme.
 





	
                        6.8
 	
                        Should the Company become subject to or involved in any re-organisation, unbundling, scheme of arrangement or other change of circumstances which directly or indirectly prejudices the Employee’s prospective bonus(es) under the bonus scheme as set out in this clause, then the parties shall endeavour to reach agreement on a modified or substituted bonus scheme which will give effect to the original intent of the bonus scheme.   Failing such agreement, the

terms of the modified or substituted bonus scheme shall be determined by the Company’s Remuneration Committee, whose decision shall be final and binding upon the parties.


	
                        6.9
 	
                        Should this agreement be terminated during the minimum fixed term in terms of paragraph 11 or by mutual agreement between the Company and the Employee, any bonus due to the Employee in terms of paragraph 6.2, shall be calculated proportionately (on a pro-rated basis) for the 12 month employment period during which employment is terminated.

      10.1.1
 	
                        discontinue payment in whole or in part of the salary on and from such dates as may be specified in the notice until the incapacity shall cease; or
 





	
      10.1.2

      11.2
 	
                        Subject to the provisions set out in 11.1 above, either the   Employee or the Company may, during the period of this   contract of employment terminate the relationship by   giving to the other party six months’ notice in writing.
