AGREEMENT

1.             Term of Employment.

1.01.           Specified Term.  Company employs Executive, and Executive accepts employment with Company, for a period of two years beginning on December 29, 2013, and ending on December 28, 2015.

Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement except for termination under Section 7.02, at the end of the Term or otherwise, the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 shall remain in full force and effect and the provisions of Section 11 shall be binding upon the legal representatives, successors and assigns of the Executive.

2.             Duties and Obligations of Executive.

2.01.           Title and Description of Duties.  Executive shall serve as the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of Universal Solar Technology, Inc.  In that capacity, Executive shall do and perform all services, acts, or things necessary or advisable to fulfill the duties of a Chief Financial Officer.

2.02.           Loyal and Conscientious Performance of Duties.  Executive agrees that to the best of his ability and experience he will at all times loyally and conscientiously perform all of the duties and obligations required of him either expressly or implicitly by the terms of this Agreement.

2.03.           Devotion of Entire Time to Company's Business and Exception.

(a)       Executive shall devote his ability and attention to the business of Company during the term of this Agreement. However, the expenditure of reasonable amounts of time for educational, charitable, or professional activities shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement if those activities do not materially interfere with the services required under this Agreement.

(b)       This Agreement shall not be interpreted to prohibit Executive from making passive personal investments or conducting private business affairs if those activities do not materially interfere with the services required under this Agreement.  For instance, working as part-time consultant for other companies in the Executive’s off hours shall not be deemed as a breach of this Agreement. However, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, acquire, hold, or retain any interest in any business competing with or similar in nature to the business of Company.

2.06.           Adherence to Inside Information Policies.

Executive shall promptly execute any agreements generally distributed by Company to its employees requiring such employees to abide by its inside information policies.
