THIS CONSULTANCY
AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of the 1st day of July, 2002 between More
Energy Ltd. (the “Company”) and JSW Consulting Inc.. (the “Consultant”),
(together with the Company, the “Parties”, and each individually a “Party”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, the
Company desires to engage the services of the Consultant to advise the Company
on management, financial and business development of the Company;

 

WHEREAS, the
Consultant is willing and able to undertake engagement with the Company subject
to the terms and conditions stated herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE,
the Company and the Consultant agree as follows:

 

1.             Services.

 

(a)          The services to be provided by the
Consultant hereunder (the “Services”) shall be:

 

(i)            to
advise and assist the company on management and business development policy and
issues;  and

 

(ii)           to
advise and assist the company in the area of financing; and

 

(iii)          to
advise and assist the company in managing its relationship with legal,
financial and business advisers; and

 

(iii)          to
provide such additional services relating to the management of the company as
the Company may request from time to time, (the “Additional Services”), as
mutually agreed between the Company and the Consultant.

 

(b)          It is expressly understood that the
Company is not engaging the Consultant to provide legal advice or perform legal
services and that the Consultant shall not serve as the Company’s legal advisor
or attorney in any capacity. Furthermore the Consultant’s relationship with the
Company is as an independent contractor and not as an employee and the parties
do not intend to create an employee employer relationship as a result of this
Agreement.

 

2.             Term.  This Agreement shall have an initial term
(the “Base Term”) of eighteen (18) months, commencing on the date first written
above.  The Base Term shall be
automatically extended for additional twelve (12) month periods unless
terminated by a written executed letter of termination by either Party thirty
days prior to the end of the respective term period.  The Base Term and any renewal terms are collectively referred to
herein as the “Term”.

 

3.             Compensation.  During the Term, the Company shall pay the
Consultant in accordance with the following:

 

1

 

(a)          Retainer.  The Company shall pay to the Consultant a monthly retainer equal
to Twelve thousands US Dollars (US$ 12,000) (the “Retainer”).  The amount of the Retainer shall be paid
monthly prorated for any partial calendar month of the Term.  Payment of the Retainer to the Consultant
shall be made on the date of this Agreement, and on the first day of each
subsequent calendar month during the Term in US Dollars.

 

(b)          Expenses: The Company will pay for any
business expenses incurred by the Consultant n the performance of his
Consulting services hereunder. The Consultant will be entitled to a cellular
phone on account of the Company as well as a Company credit card to be used
only in the case of foreign travel for the Company. The Consultant shall travel
business class when traveling abroad for the Company.

 

(c)          The Company shall also pay to the
Consultant any applicable Value Added Tax against appropriate documentation.

 

4.             Termination by the
Consultant.   In the event of the
failure in any material way of the Company to fulfill any of its material
obligations under this Agreement (hereinafter “Breach”), the Consultant, after
furnishing the Company with thirty (30) days prior written notice and the
opportunity to cure, shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement (and thus
terminate the Term) in the absence of any cure by the Company.

 

5.             Termination by the
Company.   During the Term or an
extended term, the Company shall be entitled, by thirty days notice in writing,
to terminate this Agreement for any reason whereupon this Agreement shall
terminate thereafter immediately and the Company shall no longer be obligated
to make further payments to the Consultant except for any accrued and unpaid
amounts due to the Consultant prior to such date.

 

6.             Company Matters,
Restrictive Covenants.

 

(a)          Non-Compete.  The Consultant hereby acknowledges and recognizes that the
services the Consultant is to render are of a special character with a unique
value to the Company, the loss of which cannot adequately be compensated by
damages in an action at law.  In light
of the foregoing, and because of the proprietary or confidential information to
be obtained by or disclosed to the Consultant, the Consultant covenants and agrees
that during the term of this Agreement and for one year thereafter, he shall
not engage in or assist others to engage in any activity which is competitive
with the business of the Company or its affiliates.

 

(b)          Confidentiality.  The Consultant and the Company shall not
disclose to any other Party the terms of this Agreement, without the prior
written consent of the Company or as otherwise required by law.

 

7.             Miscellaneous.

 

(a)          Entire Agreement, Binding Effect.  This Agreement sets forth the entire
understanding between the Parties as to the subject matter of this Agreement

representations with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, other

particular provision or section of this Agreement is adjudicated to be invalid

Agreement shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without
regard to the invalid or unenforceable provisions.
