          Sections V and VI of this Agreement.

Inventions
     Assignment of Intellectual Property Rights
          Consultant hereby assigns and transfers to Company Consultant's entire
          right, title and interest in and to all inventions, original works of
          authorship, developments, improvements, ideas, discoveries,
          copyrights, mask work rights and trade secrets (collectively,
          "Intellectual Property Rights") made, conceived, developed or reduced
          to practice by Consultant (whether solely or jointly with others)
          during the period of Consultant's services to Company, or which
          resulted from or were suggested by services performed by Consultant
          for Company. At Company's request, Consultant will promptly execute
          any additional documents necessary or desirable to establish Company's
          rights with respect to any Intellectual Property Rights assigned
          hereunder.

     Rights Reserved to Consultant
          Attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A is a list describing all
          Intellectual Property Rights owned by Consultant prior to the
          performance of Consultant's services for Company which relate to
          Company's proposed business and products and which are not assigned to
          Company. If no such list is attached, Consultant represents that there
          are no such Intellectual Property Rights.

     Maintenance of Records
          Consultant will maintain adequate and current written records of all
          inventions and original works of authorship made by Consultant (solely
          or jointly with others) during the course of Consultant's services to

                                       26
<PAGE>
          Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings
          and any other format that may be specified by Company. The records
          will be available to and remain the sole property of Company at all
          times.

     Obtaining Patents, Copyrights and Mask Work Rights
          Consultant will assist Company or its nominee in every reasonable way,
          during and at any time after the performance of Consultants services,
          to obtain United States and foreign patents, copyrights and mask work
          rights covering the Intellectual Property Rights assigned hereunder.
          In this connection, Consultant will execute any applications or other
          documents, testify at any hearing or litigation which may arise,
          provide Company any information known to Consultant which may be
          pertinent as prior art to patent applications or which may be
          pertinent for describing the best mode for practicing said
          Intellectual Property Rights (Company may disclose such information in
          patent applications as it deems necessary), and perform such other
          lawful acts as may be reasonably requested by Company. Company will
          pay all expenses related to such efforts and will compensate
          Consultant at a reasonable rate for time actually spent by Consultant
          at Company's request of such assistance.

          If Company is unable because of Consultant's mental or physical
          incapacity or for any other reason to secure Consultant's signature to
          apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or
          foreign patents, copyrights or mask work rights covering the
          Intellectual Property Rights, then Consultant hereby irrevocably
          designates and appoints Company and its duly authorized officers and
          agents as Consultant's agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in
          Consultant's behalf and to execute and file any such applications and
          to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and
          issuance of such patents, copyrights and mask work rights with the
          same legal force and effect as if executed by Consultant.

     Exception to Assignments
          The provisions of this Agreement requiring assignment to Company do
          not apply to any invention (i) made by Consultant entirely on
          Consultant's own time without using Company's equipment, supplies,
          facilities or trade secret information, and (ii) which does not relate
          at the time of the conception or reduction to practice of the
          invention to Company's business or to its actual or demonstrably
          anticipated research or development, and (iii) which does not result
          from any work performed by Consultant for Company. Consultant will
          advise Company promptly in writing of any invention, original works of
          authorship, development or trade secret that Consultant believes is
          protected under this section VI (e) and will at that time provide to
          Company in writing all evidence necessary to substantiate that belief.
          Company will keep in confidence any confidential information so
          disclosed which relates to inventions protected under this Section.
          Company need not treat any such disclosed information as confidential
          if it has previously been known to Company, or it at the time of
          disclosure or thereafter the information is disclosed in patents or
          other publications, imparted to Company by third parties having lawful
          possession of the same, or is publicly known to the trade to which the
          information relates.

     Legal Restraints
          In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Consultant of the
          provisions of this Agreement, Company will be entitled to an
          injunction restraining Consultant from violating the terms hereof.
          Nothing in this Agreement will restrict Company from pursuing any
          other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach,
          including recovery of damages.

                             PROMISSORY NOTE

                                                   Vancouver,  British  Columbia

                US$109,210.95
                September  20,2001

     FOR  VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Kelly Shane Montalban,  an individual
with  an  address  at  P.O. Box 700, Lions Bay, British Columbia, Canada VON 2E0
(the  "Obligor"),  hereby  promises to pay to the order of CyPost Corporation, a
Delaware  Corporation  with  offices  at  1281  West  Georgia Street, Suite 900,
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 3J7 (the "Holder"), the principal sum of
one  hundred  nine  thousand,  two  hundred  ten  dollars  and ninety five cents
(US$109,210.95) payable as set forth below.  The Obligor also promises to pay to
the  order  of  the Holder interest on the principal amount hereof at a rate per
annum  equal  to five percent (5%), which interest shall be payable at such time
as the principal is due hereunder.  Interest shall be calculated on the basis of
the  year  of 365 days and for the number of days actually elapsed.  Any amounts
of  interest  and principal not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum
rate  of  interest  allowed  by  applicable  law.  The payments of principal and
interest  hereunder  shall  be  made in coin or currency of the United States of
America  which  at  the  time  of  payment shall be legal tender therein for the
payment  of  public  and  private  debts.

     This  Note  shall  be  subject  to  the  following  additional  terms  and
conditions:

     1.   PAYMENTS.

          Subject  to Section 2 hereof, all principal and interest due hereunder
shall  be  paid  in  one  (1)  installment  on September 19, 2006 (the "Maturity
Date").  In  the  event that any payment to be made hereunder shall be or become
due on Saturday, Sunday or any other day which is a legal bank holiday under the
laws  of  British  Columbia,  such  payment  shall  be or become due on the next
succeeding  business  day.

     2.   PREPAYMENT.

          The  Obligor  and  the  Holder understand and agree that the principal
amount  of  this  Note  plus  accrued interest may be prepaid by the Obligor ,in
whole  or  in  part,  at  any  time  prior to the Maturity Date without penalty.

     3.   PAYMENT  IN  STOCK.

          Obligor,  subject  to  agreement by the Holder, may pay all or part of
the  principal  and  interest  due  hereunder, by transferring and delivering to
Holder, shares of Holder's common stock owned by Obligor. Such common stock will
be  valued  at  the  closing bid price for Holder's common stock on the business
date  immediately  preceding  the  date  of  delivery  of  such  shares.

<PAGE>
     4    NO  WAIVER.

          No  failure  or  delay by the Holder in exercising any right, power or
privilege  under the Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single
or  partial  exercise  thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the  exercise  of  any  other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
herein  provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
provided  by law.  No course of dealing between the Obligor and the Holder shall
operate  as  a  waiver  of  any  rights  by  the  Holder.

     5.   WAIVER  OF  PRESENTMENT  AND  NOTICE  OF  DISHONOR.

          The Obligor hereby waives presentment, notice of dishonor, protest and
all  other  demands  and  notices  in  connection with the delivery, acceptance,
performance  or  enforcement  of  this  Note.

     6.   PLACE  OF  PAYMENT.

          All  payments  of  principal  of this Note and the interest due hereon
shall  be  made  at  such place as the Holder may from time to time designate in
writing.

     7.   EVENTS  OF  DEFAULT.

          The  entire  unpaid principal amount of this Note and the interest due
hereon  shall,  at  the  option of the Holder exercised by written notice to the
Obligor  forthwith,  become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand,
protest  or  other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived,
if  any  one or more of the following events (herein called "Events of Default")
shall  have occurred (for any reason whatsoever and whether such happening shall
be  voluntary or involuntary or come about or be effected by operation of law or
pursuant to or in compliance with any judgement, decree or order of any court or
any  order,  rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body ) and
be  continuing  at  the  time  of  such  notice,  that  is  to  say:

          (a)  if  default  shall  be  made  in  the due and punctual payment of
the  principal  of  this  Note and the interest due thereon when and as the same
shall  become  due  and  payable,  whether  at  maturity,  or by acceleration or
otherwise,  and  such  default  have  continued  for  a period of five (5) days;

          (b)  if  the  Obligor  shall:

               (i)  admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
                    they  become  due;

               (ii) file  a petition in bankruptcy or petition to take advantage
                    of  any  insolvency  act;  or

               (iii)  make  assignment  for  the  benefit  of  creditors;  or

<PAGE>
          (c)  if,  under  the provisions of any other law for the relief or aid
of  debtors, any court or competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control
of  the  whole or any substantial part of Obligor's property and such custody or
control  shall  not  be  terminated  or stayed within (90) days from the date of
assumption  of  such  custody  or  control.

     8.    REMEDIES.

           In case any one or more of the Events of Default specified in Section
6  hereof  shall  have  occurred  and  be  continuing, the Holder may proceed to
protect  and  enforce  its  rights,  whether for the specific performance of any
covenant  or  agreement  contained in this Note or in aid of the exercise of any
power  granted in this Note, or the Holder may proceed to enforce the payment of
all  sums due upon the Note or enforce any other legal or equitable right of the
Holder.

     9.    SEVERABILITY.

           In  the  event  that one or more of the provisions of this Note shall
for  any  reason  be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity,  illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
of  this  Note,  but this Note shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable  provision  had  never  been  contained  herein.

     10.   GOVERNING  LAW.

           This Note and the right and obligations of the Obligor and the Holder
shall  be  governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province
of  British  Columbia.

     IN  WITNESS  WHEREOF, the OBLIGOR has signed and sealed this Note as of the
20th  day  of  September,  2001.
