               (b)
Disinterested
Status. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Board, any committee

that would cause any director who is a "Non-Employee Director" for purposes of

               (d)
Agents and
Indemnification. The Board may employ such legal counsel, consultants and
agents as it may deem desirable for the administration of this Plan, and may
rely upon any opinion received from any such counsel or consultant and any

member of the Board or any committee thereof or any person designated pursuant

by the Company when incurred) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement
of a claim with the approval of the Company) arising out of any act or omission
to act in connection with this Plan, unless arising out of such person's own
fraud or bad faith. Such indemnification shall be in addition to any rights of
indemnification the person may have as a director, officer or employee or under

    5.       Shares; Adjustment upon
Certain Events.

    

               (a)

Available. Shares to be issued under this Plan shall be made available,
at the discretion of the Board, either from authorized but unissued Shares or
from issued Shares reacquired by the Company.  The aggregate number of
Shares that may be issued under this Plan, from time to time, shall be 500,000
Shares, subject to any adjustments provided hereunder.  If the Company
shall reacquire (at not more than its original issuance price) any Shares issued
pursuant to an Award, or if any Shares of an Award are forfeited, or otherwise
cancelled or terminated, such Shares which were subject to such Award shall
again be available for issuance from time to time pursuant to this
Plan.

    

               (b)
No Limit on Corporate
Action. The existence of this Plan and shares of Restricted Stock granted
hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board or the
stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment,
recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company's capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the
Company, any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference shares
ahead of or affecting common shares, the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company or any sale or transfer of all or part of its assets or business, or any
other corporate act or proceeding.

    

               (c)
Adjustments upon
Certain Events. In the event of any Share dividend or Share split,
recapitalization (including, without limitation, the payment of an extraordinary
dividend), merger, consolidation, combination, spin-off, distribution of assets
to stockholders, exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change, the
aggregate number of Shares available for Awards of Restricted Stock under
Section 5(a), the number of shares of Restricted Stock underlying any
outstanding Awards or future Awards pursuant to Section 6 shall be appropriately
adjusted.

    

               (d)
No Adjustment If Value
Received. Except as hereinbefore expressly provided, the issuance by the
Company of shares of stock of any class or securities convertible into shares of
stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale,
upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon
conversion of shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for
fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made
with respect to the number of shares of Restricted Stock or future Awards of
shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 6.

               (h)  Delivery of
Shares.  Upon the expiration or termination of the Restricted
Period, the restrictions applicable to the Restricted Stock shall lapse and a
stock certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which
the restrictions have lapsed shall be delivered, free of all such restrictions,
except any that may be imposed by law, to the Eligible Director or the Eligible
Director's beneficiary or estate, as the case may be.  No payment will
be required to be made by the Eligible Director upon the delivery of such shares
of Common Stock, except as otherwise provided in Section 12(e) of the
Plan.  The stock certificates may bear such legend or legends as the
Board, in its discretion, determines to be necessary or appropriate to prevent a
violation of, or to perfect an exemption from, the registration requirements of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to implement the provisions of any
agreements between the Company and the Eligible Director with respect to such
shares.

    

               (i)
Termination of
Director Status.   If an Eligible Director ceases to serve
as a member of the Board for any reason (including, resignation, failure to
stand for re-election or failure to be re-elected), any award of Restricted
Stock shall become vested and nonforfeitable as to that number of shares which
is equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock subject to such Award
times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days actually served
as an Eligible Director during the Restricted Period and the denominator of
which is the total number of  days
during  the  Restricted  Period.  Any
portion of any Restricted Stock that has not become nonforfeitable at the date
of an Eligible Director's termination of service shall be forfeited as of such
date.

    

               (j)
Change in
Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, any
Restricted Period applicable to shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse and any
shares underlying the Restricted Stock shall become vested in full upon a
“change in control.” For purposes of this Section, a "change in control" shall
arise if, at any time while the Eligible Director is a member of the Company's
Board of Directors any one or more of the following events occurs:

    

    (i) The
Company is merged, consolidated or reorganized into or with another corporation,
or other entity and, as a result thereof, less than 50% of the outstanding stock
or other capital interests of the surviving, resulting or acquiring corporation,
person, or other entity is owned, in the aggregate, by the stockholder or
stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or
reorganization; or

    

    (ii) The
Company sells all or substantially all of its business or assets (or both) to
any other corporation, person, or other entity, less than 50% of the
outstanding, voting stock or other capital interests of which
are owned, in the aggregate, by the stockholders of the Company, directly or
indirectly, immediately prior to or after such sale.

    

    (iii) Any
"Person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) other than a Person who is an Affiliate as of
the Effective Date becomes the "Beneficial Owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3
under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company's
then outstanding voting securities (excluding for this purpose the Company or
its Affiliates or any employee benefit plan of the Company) pursuant to a
transaction or a series of related transactions which the Board of Directors
does not approve.

    

    7.       Transferability of
Awards.

    

    Unless
the Restricted Period has expired, no Award shall be transferable by the
Eligible Director otherwise than by will or under the applicable laws of descent
and distribution, unless such transfer shall be (a) acceptable under Rule 16b-3
and is approved by the Board or its authorized delegate or (b) if the agreement
pursuant to which an Award is made so provides, by gift or domestic relations
order, to (i) the spouse, children or grandchildren of such Eligible Director
(collectively, "Family Members"), (ii) a trust or trusts for the exclusive
benefit of such Family Members, or (iii) a partnership or limited liability
company in which such Family Members and trusts for the exclusive benefit of
such Family Members are the only partners or members, as the case may be. In
addition, no Award shall be assigned, negotiated, pledged or hypothecated in any
way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and no Award shall be subject to
execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign,
negotiate, pledge or hypothecate any Award, or in the event of any levy upon any
Award by reason of any attachment or similar process, in either case contrary to
the provisions hereof, such Award shall immediately become null and
void.

    

    8.       Rights as a Stockholder;
Dividend Equivalents.

    

    Eligible
Directors granted shares of Restricted Stock shall be entitled to receive,
either currently or at a future date, as specified by the Board, all dividends
and other distributions paid with respect to those shares, provided that if any
such dividends or distributions are paid in shares of Common Stock or other
property (other than cash), such shares and other property shall be subject to
the same forfeiture restrictions and  restrictions on transferability
as apply to the shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were
paid.

    

    9.       Determinations.

    

    Each
determination, interpretation or other action made or taken pursuant to the
provisions of this Plan by the Board shall be final and binding for all purposes
and upon all persons, including, without limitation, the Company, the directors,
officers and other employees of the Company, the Eligible Director and the
respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives and other
successors in interest of such persons.

    10.      Termination, Amendment and
Modification.

    

               (a)
Termination and
Amendment. This Plan shall terminate at the close of business on
September 23, 2014, unless sooner terminated by action of the Board or
stockholders of the Company, and no Awards shall be granted under this Plan
thereafter. The Board at any time or from time to time may amend this Plan to
effect (i) amendments necessary or desirable in order that this Plan and the
Awards shall conform to all applicable laws and regulations and (ii) any other
amendments deemed appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the provisions
of the Plan relating to (A) the number of shares of Restricted Stock to be
granted under the Plan  to any Eligible Director, (B) the timing of
any Award and (C) the material terms of any such Award (including, without
limitation, the time of any such grant) may not be amended without the approval
of the Company's stockholders and (ii) the Board may not effect any amendment
that would require the approval of the stockholders of the Company under any
applicable laws or the listing requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market (if
applicable to the Company at the time such amendment is adopted or will be
effective) unless such approval is obtained.

    

               (b)
No Effect on Existing
Rights. Except as otherwise required by law, no termination, amendment or
modification of this Plan may, without the consent of an Eligible Director or
the permitted transferee of an Award, alter or impair the rights and obligations
arising under any then outstanding Award held by such Eligible Director or the
permitted transferee.

    

    11.      Non-Exclusivity.

    

    Neither
the adoption of this Plan by the Board nor the submission of this Plan to the
stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any
limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other compensatory
arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, payments
of cash amounts related to the tax liabilities arising directly or indirectly
from the issuance of shares in respect of an Award granted to an Eligible
Director hereunder.

    

    12.      General
Provisions.

    

               (a)
No Right to Serve as a
Director. This Plan shall not impose any obligations on the Company to
retain any Eligible Director as a director nor shall it impose any obligation on
the part of any Eligible Director to remain as a director of the Company,
provided that each Eligible Director by accepting each Award shall represent to
the Company that it is his good faith intention to continue to serve as a
director of the Company until the next annual meeting of stockholders and that
he agrees to do so unless a change in circumstances arises.

    

                (b)
No Right to Particular
Assets. Nothing contained in this Plan and no action taken pursuant to
this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or any
fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Eligible Director, the
executor, administrator or other personal representative or designated
beneficiary of such Eligible Director, or any other persons. Any reserves that
may be established by the Company in connection with this Plan shall continue to
be part of the general funds of the Company, and no individual or entity other
than the Company shall have any interest in such funds until paid to an Eligible
Director. To the extent that any Eligible Director or his executor,
administrator, or other personal representative, as the case may be, acquires a right to receive any payment from the Company
pursuant to this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an
unsecured general creditor of the Company.

    

               (c)
Beneficiary
Designation. Each Eligible Director under the Plan may from time to time
name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or
successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid or by whom any
right under the Plan is to be exercised in case of his death. Each designation
will revoke all prior designations by the same Eligible Director, shall be in a
form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the
Eligible Director in writing with the Company during his lifetime. In the
absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Eligible
Director's death shall be paid to or exercised by the Eligible Director's
surviving spouse, if any, or otherwise to or by his estate.

               (d)
Listing of Shares and
Related Matters. The Plan, the granting and exercising of Awards
thereunder, and the other obligations of the Company under the Plan, shall be
subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules, and regulations, and to
such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. If
at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing,
registration or qualification of the Shares covered by this Plan upon any
national securities exchange or under any United States or non-United States
federal, state or other law, or the consent or approval of any governmental
regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection
with, the delivery of Shares under this Plan, no Shares will be delivered unless
and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall
have been effected or obtained, or otherwise provided for, free of any
conditions not acceptable to the Board. The Company, in its discretion, may
require an Eligible Director to make such representations and furnish such
information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or
delivery of Shares in compliance with applicable laws, rules, and
regulations.  The Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any
provision of the Plan to recognize the exercise of any Award or to otherwise
sell or issue Shares in violation of any such laws, rules, or regulations;
and any postponement of the exercise or settlement of any Award under this
provision shall not extend the term of such Awards, and neither the Company nor
its directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to any person
with respect to any Award (or Shares issuable thereunder) that shall lapse
because of such postponement.

    

               (e)
Withholding
Taxes. The Company shall have the right to make such provisions as it
deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any obligations it may have to
withhold federal, state or local income or other taxes incurred by reason of the
issuance of Shares under the Plan, including requiring an Eligible Director to reimburse the Company for any taxes required to be
withheld or otherwise deducted and paid by the Company in respect of the
issuance of Shares.

    

    (f) Compliance with Section
409A. Awards shall be designed, granted and administered in such a manner
that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the
requirements of Section 409A. If the Board determines that an Award, Award
agreement, payment, distribution, deferral election, transaction, or any other
action or arrangement contemplated by the provisions of the Plan would, if
undertaken, cause an Award recipient to become subject to additional taxes under
Section 409A, then unless the Board specifically provides otherwise, such Award,
Award agreement, payment, distribution, deferral election, transaction or other
action or arrangement shall not be given effect to the extent it causes such
result and the related provisions of the Plan and/or Award agreement will be
deemed modified, or, if necessary, suspended in order to comply with the
requirements of Section 409A to the extent determined appropriate by the Board,
in each case without the consent of or notice to the award
recipient.

    

               (g)
Notices. Each
Eligible Director shall be responsible for furnishing the Board with the current
and proper address for the mailing of notices and delivery of agreements and
Shares. Any notices required or permitted to be given shall be deemed given if
directed to the person to whom addressed at such address and mailed by regular
United States mail, first-class and prepaid. If any item mailed to such address
is returned as undeliverable to the addressee, mailing will be suspended until
the Eligible Director furnishes the proper address.

    

               (h)
Severability of
Provisions. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or
unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other
provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such
provision had not been included.

    

               (i)
Incapacity. Any
benefit payable to or for the benefit of a minor, an incompetent person or other
person incapable of receipting therefor shall be deemed paid when paid to such
person's guardian or to the party providing or reasonably appearing to provide
for the care of such person, and such payment shall fully discharge the Board,
the Company and other parties with respect thereto.

    

               (j)
Headings and
Captions. The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and
convenience only, shall not be considered part of this Plan, and shall not be
employed in the construction of this Plan.

masculine gender used in the Plan shall include the feminine gender, the
singular shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the
singular.

      FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, Diatect International Corporation, a California corporation, having
its principal place of business located at 875 Heber S. Industrial Parkway,
Heber City, Utah 84032 (hereinafter referred to as "MAKER"), promises to PAY TO
THE ORDER OF Kevin Amsler, a Florida resident located at 8787 Bay Colony Drive,
Suite #402, Naples, Florida, 34108 (hereinafter referred to as "HOLDER") the
principal sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), together with interest
at the rate of 15% per annum to be paid in lawful money of the United States of
America which shall be legal tender in the payment of all debts and dues,
private and public at the time of payment.

       

      MATURITY DATE AND
PAYMENT:

      

      The
entire principal balance plus accrued interest shall be due and payable on
August 1, 2009, whichever occurs first (the “Maturity Date”).

      

      All payments shall apply first to
accrued interest, and the remainder, if any, to reduction of
principal.  If any installment of principal or interest is not paid
when due, or upon any default in the performance of any of the covenants or
agreements of this Note, or of any instrument now or hereafter evidencing or
securing this Note or the obligation represented hereby, the whole indebtedness
(including principal and interest) remaining unpaid, shall, at the option of the
Holder, become immediately due, payable and collectible.  Each maker,
guarantor and endorser severally waives demand, protest and notice of maturity,
non-payment or protest and all requirements necessary to hold each of them
liable as makers and endorsers.

      

      If this Note shall not be paid at
maturity or according to the tenor thereof and strictly as above provided, it
may be placed in the hands of any attorney at law for collection, and in that
event, each party liable for the payment thereof, as Maker, Endorser, Guarantor
or otherwise, hereby agrees to pay the holder hereof in addition to the sums
above stated, a reasonable sum as an attorney's fee, which shall include
attorney's fees at the trial level and on appeal, together with all reasonable
costs incurred.  After maturity or default, this Note shall bear
interest at the rate of eighteen (15%) percent per annum, further provided,
however, that in no event shall such rate exceed the highest rate permissible
under the applicable law.

      

      Nothing herein contained, nor in any
instrument or transaction related thereto, shall be construed or so operate as
to require the Maker, or any person liable for the payment of the loan made
pursuant to this Note, to pay interest in an amount or at a rate greater than
the highest rate permissible under applicable law.  Should any
interest or other charges paid by the Maker, or any parties liable for the
payment of the loan made pursuant to this Note, result in the computation or
earning of interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable
law, then any and all such excess shall be and the same is hereby waived by the
holder hereof, and all such excess shall be automatically credited against and
in reduction of the principal balance, and any portion of said excess which
exceeds the principal balance shall be paid by the holder hereof to the Maker
and any parties liable for the payment of the loan made pursuant to this Note,
it being the intent of the parties hereto that under no circumstances shall the
Maker, or any parties liable for the payment of the loan hereunder, be required
to pay interest in excess of the highest rate permissible under applicable
law.

      

      Time shall be of the essence as to the
Maker's obligations under this Note.

      

      If any provision or portion of this
Note is declared or found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unenforceable or null and void, such provision or portion of this Note shall be
deemed stricken and severed from this Note, and the remaining provisions and
portions of this Note shall continue in full force and effect.

      

      This Note may not be amended, extended,
renewed, or modified, and no waiver of any provision of this Note shall be
effective except by an instrument in writing executed by the
Holder.  Any waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given.

      

      This Note is to be construed according
to the applicable laws of the State of Florida and the United States of
America.

      

      THE MAKER AND THE HOLDER HEREBY
KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER HAVE TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR
IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE.

       

      Agreed,
Accepted and Acknowledged,
