    Re:
      Acquisition

    

    

    This
      non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) sets forth the agreement and
      understanding as to the terms of the acquisition of Max Engineering LLC, a
      Texas
      corporation, together with any owned operations (“MAX”), by WPCS International
      Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“WPCS”):

    

     

    General
      Conditions:

     

    WPCS
      will
      acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of MAX. In
      consideration for such sale, WPCS will deliver, at the closing of this
      transaction (the “Closing Date”), $800,000 to the shareholders of MAX (the
“Purchase Price”) as such amount may be adjusted as set forth herein, of which
      $600,000 will be in U.S. dollars (“Cash”) and $200,000 in WPCS common stock (the
“Closing Payment”). In addition, WPCS will deliver $350,000 in Cash and/or WPCS
      common stock, at the discretion of WPCS, to the shareholders of MAX in the
      event
      MAX achieves an EBIT of $275,000 for the first twelve month period after the
      Closing Date and WPCS will deliver $375,000 in Cash and/or WPCS common stock,
      at
      the discretion of WPCS, to the shareholders of MAX in the event MAX achieves
      an
      EBIT of $375,000 for the second successive twelve month period after the Closing
      Date (the “Additional Purchase Price”). The Additional Purchase Price will be
      capped and prorated against achievement on a one to one basis and each year
      will
      stand alone. WPCS will review and validate the results and will pay the
      Additional Purchase Price amount within ninety days after each twelve month
      ending period. Anytime WPCS common stock is used for payment for this
      transaction, the stock will have demand registration rights and be valued at
      the
      NASDAQ closing price for WPCS on the day prior to issuance.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted by an amount equal to the
      variation of a $288,000 net tangible asset value for MAX as of the Closing
      Date.
      Net Tangible Asset Value (NTAV) is defined as total assets minus total
      liabilities minus intangible assets. Any shortfall below $288,000 in NTAV shall
      proportionately reduce the Closing Payment. Any excess above $288,000 in NTAV
      shall be paid to the MAX shareholders in Cash.

     

    An
      amount
      equal to $120,000 in Cash shall be held in escrow pending determination of
      the
      net tangible asset value for MAX as of the Closing Date, which shall be
      calculated by WPCS within 90 days of the Closing Date and distributed with
      adjustments, if any, within five days after the date of such
      determination.

     

    Additional
      Conditions:

     

    

    
      	·  	
              WPCS

                agreeable terms, as president of MAX with a salary of $60,000 per
                annum.
                Also, WPCS will offer a two-year employment agreement, with mutually
                agreeable terms, to Robert Winterhalter as senior vice president
                with a
                salary of $60,000 per annum.

              WPCS

      ($150,000.00), payable in equal installments at the end of such regular payroll
      accounting periods as are established by Employer, or in such other installments

      employee benefit plans, including vacation, sick leave, retirement accounts
      and

      plan documents, Employer’s generally applicable policies, and the discretion of
      the Board of Directors or any administrative or other committee provided for
      in,
      or contemplated by, such plan.

    Employer
      shall reimburse Employee through the CCG subsidiary for reasonable and necessary

      operating income, before the deduction of interest and taxes of designated
      subsidiaries as assigned by Employer. The amount of the Bonus shall be

      notice is delivered by Employee to Employer that there exist a dispute, be
      submitted to arbitration as set forth below. . Employer can assign subsidiaries

    6.1

    Employee
      shall not, in any manner, for any reasons, either directly or indirectly,

      such
      documents and materials, not copied, to Employer upon demand therefore and
      in
      any event upon expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. Any payment
      of sums due and owing to Employee by Employer upon such expiration or earlier

    COVENANT
      NOT TO COMPETE

    

    Except
      as
      expressly permitted in Article 5 above, during the Term of this Agreement,
      (a)
      Employee shall not engage, directly or indirectly, in any business or activity
      competitive to any business or activity engaged in, or proposed to be engaged
      in, by Employer or (b) soliciting or taking away or interfering with any

      using, for the benefit of any person or entity other than Employer, any
      Confidential Information of Employer. The foregoing covenant prohibiting
      competitive activities shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
      shall
      extend, and shall remain enforceable against Employee, for the period of one
      (1)
      year following the date this Agreement is terminated. In addition, during the
      one-year period following such expiration or earlier termination, neither

    SURVIVAL

    

    Employee
      agrees that the provisions of Articles 6, 7 and 9 shall survive expiration
      or
      earlier termination of this Agreement for any reasons, whether voluntary or
      involuntary, with or without cause, and shall remain in full force and effect
      thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Agreement is terminated
      upon
      the dissolution of Employer, the filing of a petition in bankruptcy by Employer
      or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors of the assets of Employer,
      Articles 6, 7 and 9 shall be of no further force or effect.

    INJUNCTIVE
      RELIEF

    

    Employee
      acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and obligations of Employee set
      forth
      in Articles 6 and 7 with respect to non-competition, non-solicitation,
      confidentiality and Employer’s property relate to special, unique and
      extraordinary matters and that a violation of any of the terms of such covenants
      and obligations will cause Employer irreparable injury for which adequate
      remedies are not available at law. Therefore, Employee agrees that Employer
      shall be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or such other equitable
      relief (without the requirement to post bond) as a court of competent
      jurisdiction may deem necessary or appropriate to restrain Employee from
      committing any violation of the covenants and obligations referred to in this
      Article 9. These injunctive remedies are cumulative and in addition to any
      other
      rights and remedies Employer may have at law or in equity.

    Termination
      by Employer

    

    10.3

    Employer
      may terminate its employment of Employee under this Agreement for cause at
      any
      time by written notice to Employee. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
      “cause” for termination by Employer shall be (a) a conviction of or plea of
      guilty or nolo
      contendere by
      Employee to a felony, or any crime involving fraud or embezzlement; (b) the
      refusal by Employee to perform his material duties and obligations hereunder;
      (c) Employee’s willful and intentional misconduct in the performance of his
      material duties and obligations; or (d) if Employee or any member of his family
      makes any personal profit arising out of or in connection with a transaction
      to
      which Employer is a party or with which it is associated without making
      disclosure to and obtaining the prior written consent of Employer. The written
      notice given hereunder by Employer to Employee shall specify in reasonable
      detail the cause for termination. In the case of a termination for the causes
      described in (a) and (d) above, such termination shall be effective upon receipt
      of the written notice. In the case of the causes described in (b) and (c) above,
      such termination notice shall not be effective until thirty (30) days after
      Employee’s receipt of such notice, during which time Employee shall have the
      right to respond to Employer’s notice and cure the breach or other event giving
      rise to the termination.

    Severance

    

    10.4

    Upon
      a
      termination of this Agreement without Good Reason by Employee or with cause
      by
      Employer, Employer shall pay to Employee all accrued and unpaid compensation
      as
      of the date of such termination, subject to the provision of Section 6.2. Upon
      a
      termination of this Agreement with Good Reason by Employee or without cause
      by
      Employer, Employer shall pay to Employee all accrued and unpaid compensation
      and
      expense reimbursement as of the date of such termination and the “Severance
      Payment.” The Severance Payment shall be payable in a lump sum, subject to
      Employer’s statutory and customary withholdings. If the termination of Employee
      hereunder is by Employee with Good Reason, the Severance Payment shall be paid
      by Employer within five (5) business days of the expiration of any applicable
      cure period. If the termination of Employee hereunder is by Employer without
      cause, the Severance Payment shall be paid by Employer within five (5) business
      days of termination. The “Severance Payment” shall equal the amount of the
      Salary payable to Employee under Section 4.1 of this Agreement from the date
      of
      such termination until the end of the Term of this Agreement (prorated for
      any
      partial month). 

    

    Termination
      Upon Death

    

    10.5

    If
      Employee dies during the Term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate,
      except that Employee’s legal representatives shall be entitled to receive any
      earned but unpaid compensation or expense reimbursement due hereunder through
      the date of death.

    

    Termination
      Upon Disability

    

    10.6

    If,
      during the Term of this Agreement, Employee suffers and continues to suffer
      from
      a “Disability” (as defined below), then Employer may terminate this Agreement by
      delivering to Employee thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice of
      termination based on such Disability, setting forth with specificity the nature
      of such Disability and the determination of Disability by Employer. For the
      purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means Employee’s inability, with
      reasonable accommodation, to substantially perform Employee’s duties, services
      and obligations under this Agreement due to physical or mental illness or other
      disability for a continuous, uninterrupted period of sixty (60) calendar days
      or
      ninety (90) days during any twelve month period. Upon any such termination
      for
      Disability, Employee shall be entitled to receive any earned but unpaid
      compensation or expense reimbursement due hereunder through the date of
      termination.
