Contract, Guarantee Contract and other relevant legal documents about each
specific loan should be fully completed and provided by one Party when it is
required by the other Party.

        

        4.3.  In the event that
one Party does not complete the Loan Contract, Guarantee Contract, or other
relevant legal documents according to the provisions under Section 4.2, or there
are certain blanks in those legal documents, the other Party may refuse to
comply with the mutual guarantee.

        

        4.4.  Both Parties
promise, during the period that one or both Parties is charged with liability to
guarantee, to exchange financial information within 10 working days after the
end of each month.  Such financial information includes but is not

        SECTION 5. Suspension
and Dissolution of the Agreement.

        

        5.1.  During the
term of this mutual guarantee, if one Party can prove that the other Party
becomes a severe obstacle in a major dispute or major litigation involving its
normal business operations, the former Party may suspend this Agreement upon
written notification provided to the latter Party ten (10) working days in
advance of such suspension.

no impact on the guarantee obligations undertaken related to the Loan
Contracts that have already been signed and become effective, and
are covered by this Agreement.  Neither Party may suspend or
dissolve its guarantee responsibilities that it has already assumed and
that are in effect by reason that this Agreement has been terminated in
accordance with either Section 5.1 or 5.2.

        

        SECTION 6. Counter-guarantee
Obligation.  In the event one
Party postpones or fails to pay mature debts resulting in the other Party

the bank with respect to the joint liability guarantee with advance written
notice pursuant to the Counter-Guarantee Contract subscribed to by both Parties
when entering the Guarantee Contract; the former Party who postpones or fails to
make payment shall cooperate with the latter Party to complete the compensation
procedures without placing any obstacles according to Counter-Guarantee
Contract.

Party shall be subject to the contractual terms and obligations set forth in
this Agreement.

        

        7.2. This Agreement is a
framework agreement for both Parties who are covered in the mutual guarantee.

    For value

“Company”) (OTC BB: EFIR) hereby promises to pay to the order of Thomas
Richards, his heirs or successors, (collectively the “Holder”) by the Maturity
Date, or earlier, the full Face Amount of Twenty Thousand and 00/100 dollars
($20,000.00) U.S., (this “Note”) in such amounts, at such times and on such
terms and conditions as are specified herein (sometimes hereafter the Company
and the Holder are referred to collectively as “the Parties”.)

    

    Article 1    Method of
payment/interest

    

    Section
1.1                      Payments
made to the Holder by the Company in satisfaction of the Note (referred to as a
“Payment”) shall be made to the Holder in the amount specified in Section 1.2
below (the “Payment Amount”) until the Face Amount is paid in
full.  The First Payment will be due on June 29, 2009 and each
subsequent Payment will be made on the 29th day of
each month thereafter (“Payment Date” or “Payments Dates”) until this Note is
paid in full.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
Note, the Company may pay in full to the Holder the Face Amount, or any balance
remaining thereon, in readily available funds at any time prior to the Maturity
Date and from time to time prior to the Maturity Date without
penalty.

    

    Section
1.2                      The
Company shall pay interest (“Interest”) at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per
annum, compounded monthly, on the unpaid Face Amount of this Note at such times
and in such amounts as outlined in this Article
1.  The Company shall make mandatory monthly payments of
interest (the “Interest Payments”), in an amount equal to the interest accrued
on the principal balance of the Note from the last Payment until such time as
the current Interest Payment is due and payable.

    

    Article 2    Net proceeds
delivered to the Company under this Note shall be Nineteen Thousand, Five
Hundred dollars ($19,500.00) and the Five Hundred dollars ($500) now due the

consideration for the making of this Note, the Company shall (i) pay Holder a
fee of $2,000 at the Maturity Date of this Note for the making of this Note,
(ii) the Company shall provide and bear the cost of any opinion letter required
to remove any restrictions when permitted by regulation on any Company shares
now held by the Holder, (iii) the Company shall prepare and bear the cost of any
filings or reporting’s that may be required of Holder and shall be responsible
for any costs of the Holder incurred in the enforcement of this
Note.

    

    Article 4    Should there be any
changes in the Company or its subsidiaries including but not limited to
financing or other contractual agreements of any sort, or other obligations
incurred, or existing contracts lost affecting revenues, that in the sole
judgment of the Holder, would adversely affect the Company or its subsidiaries,
the Holder may at Holder’s sole discretion accelerate the Maturity Date and call
the Note fully due and payable upon 5 days written notice.

    

    Article 5    Unpaid
Amounts

    

    Section
5.1                      In
the event that on the Maturity Date or sooner if due, the Company has any
remaining amounts unpaid on this Note (the “Residual Amount”), the Holder can
exercise its right to increase the Face Amount by ten percent (10%) as an
initial penalty and an
additional two and one-half percent (2.5%) per week until paid, compounded
weekly, as liquidated damages (“Liquidated Damages”).  The Parties
acknowledge that Liquidated Damages are not interest and should not constitute a
penalty.

    

    Article 6    Defaults and
Remedies

6.1                      Events of

as an initial penalty.  In addition, the Holder may elect to increase
the Face Amount of the Note by two and one-half percent (2.5%) each week as
Liquidated Damages, compounded weekly.  The Parties acknowledge that
Liquidated Damages are not interest under the terms of this Agreement, and shall
not constitute a penalty.  In addition the Interest rate on all
outstanding amounts due shall increase to eighteen percent (18%) annually,
compounded monthly.

    

    Section
6.3         In the event of a
Default hereunder, the Company and all of its subsidiaries does hereby assign
all revenues received by the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries to Holder

liquidated damages, to be immediately due and payable in full.

    

    Article 7    Security

    

    Section
7.1         All obligations of the
Company under this Note shall be further secured by all of the assets of the
Company and its subsidiaries both tangible and intangible until all the

contracts and any revenues derived therefrom.   The obligations
of the Company to the Holder under this Note shall be and remain superior to any
other obligations not previously secured as of the date of this Note and
superior to any future obligations the Company may incur unless otherwise
consented to by Holder.

    

    Article 8    Use of
Proceeds

    

    Section
8.1         The proceeds to the
Company from the making of this Note shall be used to pay down the now

amount estimated to be $15,000 and to thereby gain a 90 day extension of the
current Dutchess note from the Company, and to address the outstanding balances

obligation of the Company contained in the Note or any other certificate,
instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, except insofar as any

    Section
19.3          The Company and
its “Subsidiaries” (which for purposes of this Note means any entity in which
the Company, directly or indirectly, owns capital stock or holds an equity or
similar interest) are corporations duly organized and validly existing in good
standing under the laws of the respective jurisdictions of their incorporation,
and have the requisite corporate power and authorization to own their properties
and to carry on their business as now being conducted. Both the Company and its
Subsidiaries are duly qualified to do business and are in good standing in every
jurisdiction in which their ownership of property or the nature of the business
conducted by them makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that
the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material
Adverse Effect. As used in this Note, “Material Adverse Effect” means any
material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results
of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, if any, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated
hereby or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection
herewith, or on the authority or ability of the Company to perform its
obligations under the Note.

    

    Section
19.4          Authorization;
Enforcement; Compliance with Other Instruments.  (i) The Company has
the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its
obligations under this Note, and no further consent or authorization is required
by the Company, its Board of Directors, or its shareholders, (iii) this Note has
been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company, and (iv) the Note
constitutes the valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against
the Company in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be
limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors' rights and
remedies.

    

    Section
19.5          There are no
disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated by the
Company to arise, between the Company and the accountants, auditors and lawyers
formerly or presently used by the Company, including but not limited to disputes
or conflicts over payment owed to such accountants, auditors or
lawyers.

    

    Section
19.6          All
representations made by or relating to the Company of a historical nature and
all undertakings described herein shall relate and refer to the Company, its
predecessors, and the Subsidiaries.

    

    Section
19.7          The Company
acknowledges that its failure to timely meet any of its obligations hereunder,
including, but without limitation, its obligations to make Payments will cause
the Holder to suffer irreparable harm and that the actual damage to the Holder
will be difficult to ascertain.  Accordingly, the parties agree that
it is appropriate to include in this Note a provision for liquidated
damages.  The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated
damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties’ good faith
effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of
such liquidated damages are reasonable and do not constitute a
penalty.  The payment of liquidated damages shall not relieve the
Company from its obligations under this Note.

    

    Section
19.8           In the
event that any rules, regulations, interpretations or comments from the SEC or
other governing body, hinder any operation of this Agreement, the Parties hereby
agree that those specific terms and conditions shall be negotiated on similar
terms within five (5) business days, and shall not alter, diminish or affect any
other rights, duties or covenants in this Note and that all terms and conditions
will remain in full force and effect except as is necessary to make those
specific terms and conditions comply with applicable rule, regulation,
interpretation or Comment.  Failure for the Company to agree to such
new terms, shall constitute and Event of Default herein, as outlined in Article
4, and the Holder may elect to take actions as outlined in the
Note.

    

    Section
19.9         Any misrepresentations
including those made to the Company by M3 or its affiliates during the combining
of the two companies be it deemed an acquisition, merger, reverse triangular
merger or by any other mechanism shall be considered a breach of contract and an
Event of Default under this Agreement and the Holder may seek to take actions as
described above in this Agreement.

    

    Section
19.10        Until the obligations of
the Company to the Holder under this Note are fully paid and met, the Company
shall immediately inform the Holder of any changes, whether real or threatened,
that could adversely affect the Company

    

    IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has duly executed this Note as of the date first
written above.
