                  AGREEMENT dated as of May 26th, 2006, between INNOVATE
ONCOLOGY, INC., a Nevada corporation ("COMPANY"), and CHRISTOPHER NOWERS, an
individual ("EXECUTIVE").

                  Company desires to employ Executive, and Executive desires to
be employed, as Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of Company, in each case, on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

                  Accordingly, each party hereto hereby agrees as follows:


                  1.       TERM OF AGREEMENT

                  The term of this Agreement will commence on the date first set
forth above, or as soon thereafter as Executive commences services hereunder
(Executive's "START DATE") and will continue until the earlier of: (a) the date
on which it is terminated pursuant to Section 5; or (b) three years following
the date hereof (the "INITIAL TERM"). At the conclusion of the Initial Term, and
each successive term thereafter, this Agreement will be automatically renewed
for an additional one-year term, unless either party hereto gives written notice
to the other party of its intention to terminate this Agreement at least 90 days
prior to the automatic renewal date.


                  2.       EMPLOYMENT

CEO, reporting directly to Company's Board of Directors (the "BOARD"), and will
have the general powers, duties and responsibilities of management usually
vested in that office in a corporation and such additional powers and duties as
may be prescribed from time to time by the Board, which may include services for
one or more subsidiaries or affiliates of Company as well as hiring key
employees. Executive will be provided with a written description of his duties
as CEO, which will be incorporated into this Agreement with the understanding
that such description is not intended to be exclusive, and will receive
performance appraisals on or about each anniversary of this Agreement by the
compensation committee of the Board. In addition, the Board, which will be newly
constituted at the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company, will
nominate Executive, as CEO of Company and therefore part of management's slate,
to fill a seat on the Board and, in the meantime, will appoint Executive to fill
a vacancy on the Board.

                  2.2 OTHER SERVICES. Company acknowledges that Executive may do
charity work and conduct personal business as long as such activities do not
materially interfere with Executive's duties hereunder.

option, stock bonus, phantom stock right, equity pool, cash bonus or other such
plans or arrangements, which may exist during the term of his employment,
provided that, except as otherwise provided herein, Executive's entitlement is
not inconsistent with the terms of any such plan or arrangement.

                  (b) As soon as practicable following attainment of certain
milestones as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, subject to both Board and
shareholder approval, Executive, provided that he is still employed hereunder,
will be granted options to purchase such number of shares of Company's common
stock (expressed as a percentage of common shares (fully diluted) as are then
outstanding) as is set forth opposite each such milestone on Schedule 1 at a
price per share equal to the volume weighted price per share for the 30
consecutive trading days preceding the date of attainment of the related
milestone.

                  (c) To the extent permissible, such options will be incentive
stock options. The options will vest in three equal installments, on the first,
second and third anniversary of date of grant, and will be exercisable for five
years from date of grant (or, in case of earlier termination of Executive's
employment with Company, for three months following the effective date of

                  (a) Company will provide to Executive, at Company's cost, all
perquisites to which other senior executives of Company are generally entitled
and such other perquisites which are suitable to the character of the
Executive's position with Company and adequate for the performance of his duties
hereunder in accordance with Company's policy.

                  (b) Upon satisfaction of applicable eligibility requirements,
Executive will be provided with group medical and dental insurance through
Company's plans, as well as any other fringe benefit plan(s) as Company may

children of Executive will also be covered under the Company's medical and
dental plans at Company's cost and will be provided with disability insurance
and life insurance coverage as well. In addition, Executive will be eligible to
participate in Company's 401K plan. (Executive acknowledges, however, with
reference to the foregoing, that no such benefit plans currently exist and that
Company intends to implement them no earlier than the date which follows by two
months completion of a "PIPE financing" within the meaning of Schedule 1
hereto.) To the extent legally permissible, Company will not treat amounts paid
in respect of such benefits as income to Executive.

                  3.5 PAID TIME OFF. Executive will accrue, on a daily basis, a
total of three workweeks of paid time off ("PTO") per year following the date of
this Agreement. This PTO will be in addition to normal Company holidays, which
will be determined at the discretion of Company from time to time. Any accrued
but unused PTO (up to such limits as Company may establish) will be paid to
Executive, on a pro rata basis, at the time that his employment is terminated.

attorney's fees), arising out of Executive's activities as an agent, employee,
officer or director of Company, or in any other capacity on behalf of or at the

          period of one year from the date of termination, provided that

termination) for (x) one year, or (y) the remainder of the Initial or then
current renewal term of this Agreement (if six months or more but less than one
year), whichever is less. In addition, medical and dental benefits under the

                  5.6 CHANGE IN CONTROL. For purposes of this Agreement, a
"CHANGE IN CONTROL" means:

                            (a) the acquisition of Company by another entity by
          means of a transaction or series of related transactions (including,
          but not limited to, any reorganization, merger, stock purchase or
          consolidation); or

                            (b) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all
          or substantially all of Company's assets to an unaffiliated third
          party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not constitute a Change in
Control:

                            (i) if the sole purpose of the transaction is to
          change the state of the Company's incorporation or to create or
          eliminate a holding company that will be owned in substantially the
          same proportions by the same beneficial owners as before the
          transaction;

                            (ii) if Company's stockholders as constituted
          immediately prior to the transaction will, immediately after the
          transaction (by virtue of securities issued as consideration for
          Company's capital stock or assets or otherwise), hold more than 50% of
          the combined voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity's
          outstanding securities;

                            (iii) if in an underwritten public offering of
          Company's common stock, Company's stockholders as constituted
          immediately prior to the offering will, immediately after the
          offering, continue to hold more than 50% of the combined voting power
          of Company's outstanding voting securities;

                            (iv) if in a private placement of preferred or
          common stock, or the issuance of debt instruments convertible into
          preferred or common stock, such securities are sold and issued for
          fair market value as determined by the Board, provided the acquiring
          person does not as a result of the transaction own more than 50% of
          the outstanding capital stock of Company, have the right to vote more
          than 50% of the outstanding voting stock of Company, or have the right
          to elect a majority of the Board; or

                            (v) if Executive is a member of a group that
          acquires control of Company in an event that would otherwise be a
          Change in Control.

                  5.7 DEATH OR DISABILITY. To the extent consistent with
applicable law, Executive's salary will terminate on his death or Disability.
"DISABILITY" means any health condition, physical or mental, or other cause
beyond Executive's control, that prevents him from performing his duties, even
after reasonable accommodation is made by Company, for a period of 90
consecutive days within any 365-day period. In the event of termination due to
death or Disability, Company will pay Executive (or his legal representative)
his salary prorated through the date of termination, at the rate in effect at
the time of termination and continue to provide insurance and other fringe


                                       5


<PAGE>

benefits to Executive and Executive's spouse and dependent children for a period
of one year from Executive's termination date, and 100% of the options set to
vest in the year that death or disability occurs will vest and Executive (or his
legal representative) will have until the end of the option term to exercise all
options. Company will have no further obligations to Executive (or his legal
representative) under this Agreement, except for any other vested rights under
employee benefit plans and programs and the right to receive reimbursement for
business expenses.

                  5.8 RETURN OF Company PROPERTY. Within ten days after the
effective date of termination of Executive's employment with Company, Executive
