       THIS AGREEMENT is executed and made effective as of the 1st day of January, 2005, between Black Mountain Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Sami Miro ("Consultant").

WITNESSETH

       WHEREAS, the Company desires to retain the services of Consultant as more fully described below; and

       WHEREAS, the Company and the Consultant intend that this Agreement and the services to be performed hereunder shall constitute a "written compensation contract" within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to which the Company will issue Shares of its Common Stock, $.0001 par value per share (the "Compensation") as compensation for services rendered by the Consultant to the Company.

       NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and provisions contained in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

       1.        Consultation.

                   The Company hereby retains the services of Consultant, as an independent contractor, which retention is accepted and agreed to be performed by Consultant, subject to and upon the terms and conditions hereinbelow set forth.

       2.       Term.

                   The term of this Agreement shall begin on the day and year first above written, and, unless earlier terminated by the Company for Cause, as defined in Section 5.2.4 hereof, shall terminate on May 31, 2005, and thereafter, if extended or renewed by written agreement of the parties, upon 30 days' written notice given by either party to the other.  Upon the termination of this Agreement, the retention and agency, and Consultant's independent contractor status, shall end, unless a new, separate written agreement shall have been executed by all parties.  In any event, Sections 6, 9, 10, 11, and 12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

       3.       Consultant's Status.

                   It is understood and agreed that Consultant shall be at all times and for all purposes hereunder an independent contractor to the Company and under no circumstances shall be deemed an employee, partner or joint venturer of or with the Company.  Consultant agrees that he shall not directly or indirectly imply or represent to others, or permit another to imply or represent to others that Consultant has any authority to act for, represent or bind the Company in any matter by virtue of this Agreement.  Consultant expressly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company for any damages which may be sustained by the Company as a result of or arising out of any breach of the covenants set forth in this Section 3.

       4.       Services of Consultant.

              4.1.       Upon the request of the Company, Consultant shall consult with and advise the Company with respect to matters concerning:  business development, marketing, mergers and acquisitions, business strategy and corporate image.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Consultant will also assist the Company in developing, studying and evaluating market opportunities for the Company's acquisition proposals, prepare reports and studies thereon when advisable, and assist in matters of business development and discussions pertaining thereto.

              4.2       In providing services hereunder, Consultant shall in no way have any power or authority to bind the Company to any contract, agreement, commitment or undertaking without the Company's prior written consent.

              4.3.       In performing hereunder, Consultant may, but need not, use the facilities or resources of the Company.  Consultant shall be solely and exclusively responsible for determining when, where, how and by whom the services are to be performed hereunder, subject only to such matters as may be specifically addressed in written communications from the Company.

              4.4.       Consultant agrees to exercise his best efforts, skill and diligence in the performance of his services hereunder and shall perform all services in a good and workmanlike fashion.

              4.5.       Consultant shall keep accurate records showing the quantity and date of time devoted to the services provided for herein and a description thereof, and shall present such records to the Company on request.

       5.       Compensation.

              5.1.       The Consultant shall be promptly reimbursed for all reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred by the Consultant in connection with its rendering of services hereunder to the Company; provided, however, that such expenses require the prior approval of the President of the Company and provided further that the Consultant shall only be reimbursed for such expenses as to which it presents the Company with receipts or other reasonable substantiation thereof.

              5.2.       For all services hereunder, the Company agrees to pay Consultant a fee by the issuance to Consultant of an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock, $.0001 par value, (the "Common Stock" or the "Shares").  

                     5.2.1       All of the 250,000 Shares provided for in this Section 5.2 shall be issued as "restricted securities" under the Securities Act and shall be subject to restrictions on transfer imposed by federal securities laws (the "Restricted Shares").  

                     5.2.2       Of the 250,000 Shares to be issued to Consultant, a certificate representing 50,000 Shares shall be delivered to Consultant as soon as practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement; and four (4) certificates of 50,000 Shares each, representing the remaining 200,000 Shares shall be delivered to the Company's President, J. Andrew Moorer.  One certificate representing 50,000 Shares shall be released to Consultant by Mr. Moorer on the last day of each calendar month following the effective date of this Agreement, until certificates representing an aggregate of 250,000 Shares have been delivered to Consultant. 

                     5.2.3       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securities described in this Section 5.2 shall be forfeited and surrendered to the Company for cancellation if   this Agreement is terminated by the Company for Cause.  For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "for Cause" shall mean (i) Consultant shall commit a material breach of this Agreement which breach shall remain uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice by the Company of such breach, (ii) Consultant is convicted of any felony or is shown to have engaged in any act of dishonesty detrimental to the Company or fraud upon the Company, or any of its affiliated companies, or any of its customers or clients, (iii) Consultant has been grossly negligent in the performance of his duties or responsibilities, or (iv) Consultant shall engage in or aid and abet any violation of any federal or state securities law, or an action has been commenced by the Commission or any state securities commission against the Consultant or any entity controlled by or under the common control of Consultant alleging a violation of federal or state securities laws.

       5.3.       The Consultant shall pay all applicable taxes which are assessed against it as a result of its receipt of compensation under this Agreement, and the Company shall not withhold any such taxes from the compensation paid to the Consultant.  Consultant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, together with its officers and directors, with respect to any such taxes or other assessments which may be due and payable as a result of the payment or receipt of compensation hereunder.

       6.       Covenants, Representations and Warranties of Consultant.

              6.1.       In connection with its performance hereunder, Consultant shall not make any untrue statement of a material fact regarding the Company or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make any statement regarding the Company made by the Consultant not misleading.

              6.2.       The Consultant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors, shareholders, agents, employees (hereafter "Affiliates"), attorneys, successors and assigns, from and against, and pay or reimburse each of them for, any and all claims, losses, damages, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, costs and legal, accounting or other expenses (collectively "Losses") that any of them may sustain or incur as a result of any misrepresentation, any inaccuracy in, or any breach of, any warranty or representation or any non-performance of any covenant or other obligation on the part of the Consultant contained in this Agreement.

              6.3       Consultant represents, warrants and agrees that he has been afforded the opportunity to make, and has made, all such investigation of the Company and its financial condition, business, affairs and prospects as it deems appropriate.  Consultant acknowledges receipt of such information as it deems necessary or appropriate as a prudent and knowledgeable investor in evaluating the exchange of the shares.  Consultant acknowledges that the Company has made available to it the opportunity to obtain additional information to evaluate the merits and risks of this exchange.  Consultant acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to ask questions of the Company, and, to the extent it availed itself such opportunity, it received satisfactory answers from the Company, its affiliates, associates, officers and directors.

              6.4       Consultant represents, warrants and agrees that it understands that the Company's business  is, by its nature, speculative; that Consultant is aware that the financial resources of the Company are extremely limited and that it is very likely that the Company will require additional capital, and there is no assurance that such capital will be available if necessary; that Consultant is familiar with the high degree of risk that is involved in the Company's business, and that Consultant is financially able and willing to accept the substantial risk involved in such investment, including the risk of loss of the entire amount invested.

              6.5       Consultant represents that it understands that the Company's Restricted Shares have not been registered for sale under federal or state securities laws and that said securities are being issued to Consultant pursuant to a claimed exemption from the registration requirements of such laws which is based upon the fact that said securities are not being offered to the public.  Consultant understands that in order to satisfy such requirement he must be acquiring the stock with no view to making a public distribution of said securities and the representations and warranties contained in this Section III are given with the intention that the Company may rely thereon for purposes of claiming such exemption; and that he understands that he must bear the economic risk of his investment in the stock for a substantial period of time, because the stock has not been registered under the federal or state securities laws, and cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under such laws, or unless an exemption from such registration is available.

              6.6       Consultant represents that he is acquiring the Restricted Shares for his own account and for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Consultant agrees that the Restricted Shares will not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred for value and that no transfer thereof will be made by the Consultant unless (a) a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (b) there is presented to the Company an opinion of counsel for Consultant reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required, or (c) there is presented to the Company a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission (said Commission having been informed of all relevant circumstances) to the effect that in the event either the stock is transferred by Consultant without such registration the Commission or the staff will not recommend any action.  Consultant further agrees that the Restricted Shares will not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred unless, in the opinion of legal counsel for the Company, such sale or disposition does not and will not violate any provisions of any federal or state securities law or regulation.  Consultant consents that any transfer agent of the Company may be instructed not to transfer any of the Restricted Shares unless it receives satisfactory evidence of compliance with the foregoing provisions and that there may be endorsed upon any certificates (or instruments issued in substitution therefor), the Company's regular legend regarding the sale of restricted securities.

       7.       Performance and Other Engagements.

       Throughout the term of this Agreement, it is understood that Consultant will only provide services to the Company on a part-time basis and, subject to the provisions concerning competition hereinbelow set forth, may perform the same or similar services for other persons or entities not inconsistent with his undertakings hereunder.

       8.       Representations and Warranties of the Consultant.

              8.1.       The Consultant hereby represents and  warrants to the Company that there are no agreements or binding obligations enforceable against the Consultant which would be violated by his entering into this Agreement or providing the services to be provided hereunder.

              8.2.       No Other Information Relied Upon.
  

                     Consultant represents, warrants and agrees that he has been afforded the opportunity to make, and has made, all such investigation of the Company and its financial condition, business affairs and prospects as it deems appropriate.  Consultant acknowledges receipt of such information as he deems necessary or appropriate as a prudent and knowledgeable investor in evaluating the Company, the Securities referred to above.  Consultant acknowledges that the Company has made available to him the opportunity to obtain additional information to evaluate the merits and risks of this Agreement.  Consultant acknowledges that he has had the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and, to the extent he availed himself of such opportunity, Consultant received satisfactory answers from the Company, its affiliates, associates, officers and directors.

              8.3.       Nature of the Risk.

                     Consultant represents, warrants and agrees that he understands that the Company's business is, by its nature, speculative; that Consultant is aware that the financial resources of the Company are extremely limited and that it is very likely that the Company will require additional capital, and there is no assurance that such capital will be available if necessary; that Consultant is familiar with the high degree of risk that is involved in the Company's business, and that Consultant is financially able and willing to accept the substantial risk involved in such investment, including the risk of loss of the entire amount invested.
