(b) DISABILITY. If, as a result of Executive's incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Executive shall have been substantially unable to perform his duties hereunder for an entire period of six (6) consecutive months, and within thirty (30) days after written Notice of Termination is given after such six (6) month period, Executive shall not have returned to the substantial performance of his duties on a full-time basis, the Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's employment hereunder for "Disability", and such termination in and of itself shall not be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. 

         

(c) CAUSE. The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's employment for Cause, and such termination in and of itself shall not be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall have "Cause" to terminate Executive's employment upon Executive's: 

                (i) final conviction of or plea of guilty or no contest to a felony involving moral turpitude; or 

               (ii) willful misconduct that is materially and demonstrably injurious economically to the Company. 

For purposes of this Section 6(c), no act, or failure to act, by Executive shall be considered "willful" unless committed in bad faith and without a reasonable belief that the act or omission was in the best interests of the Company or any entity in control of, 

3

controlled by or under common control with the Company ("Affiliates") thereof. Cause shall not exist under paragraph (ii) unless and until the Company has delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by three-quarters of the Board (excluding Executive if he should be serving thereon) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable (but in no event less than thirty (30) days) notice to Executive and an opportunity for Executive, together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of the conduct set forth in paragraph (ii) and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. This Section 6(c) shall not prevent Executive from challenging in any arbitration or court of competent jurisdiction the Board's determination that Cause exists or that Executive has 

failed to cure any act (or failure to act) that purportedly formed the basis for the Board's determination. 

                 (d) GOOD REASON. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason" within ninety (90) days after Executive has actual knowledge of the occurrence, without the written consent of Executive, of one of the following events: 

                  

(i) (A) any change in the duties or responsibilities of Executive that is inconsistent in any material and adverse respect with Executive's position(s), duties, responsibilities or status with the Company (including any material and adverse diminution of such duties or responsibilities); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Good Reason shall not be deemed to occur upon a change in duties or responsibilities that is solely and directly a result of the Company no longer being a publicly traded entity 

(other than such change which would have a material and adverse effect on Executive's duties or responsibilities) and does not involve any other event set forth in this paragraph (d) or a material and adverse change in Executive's titles or offices (including, if applicable, membership on the Board) with the Company; 

 

(ii) a reduction in Executive's Base Salary; 

(iii) any purported termination of Executive's employment for Cause which is not effected pursuant to the procedures of Section 6(c) (and for purposes of this Agreement, no such purported termination shall be effective); 

            

(iv) the Company's or any Affiliate's failure to provide in all material respects the indemnification set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement; 

             

(v) the failure of the Company to obtain the assumption agreement from any successor as contemplated in Section 13(a); or 

               

For purposes of clauses (i) through (v) above, an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action taken in good faith and which is remedied by the Company within ten (10) days 

after receipt of notice thereof given by Executive shall not constitute Good Reason. Executive's right to terminate employment for Good Reason shall not be affected by Executive's incapacity due to mental or physical illness and Executive's continued employment shall not constitute consent to or a waiver of rights with respect to, any event or condition constituting Good Reason. 

4

               (e) WITHOUT CAUSE. The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's employment hereunder without Cause by providing Executive with a Notice of Termination at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination, and such termination shall not in and of itself be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. 

               (f) WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment hereunder without Good Reason by providing the Company with a Notice of Termination at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination, and such termination shall not in and of itself be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. 

7.    TERMINATION PROCEDURE. 

             (a) NOTICE OF TERMINATION. Any termination of Executive's employment by the Company or by Executive during the Employment Period (other than termination pursuant to Section 6(a)) shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 14.  For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. 

             (b) DATE OF TERMINATION. "Date of Termination" shall mean (i) if Executive's employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death, (ii) if Executive's employment is terminated pursuant to Section 6(b), thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination (provided that Executive shall not have returned to the substantial performance of his duties on a full-time basis during such thirty (30) day period), and (iii) if Executive's employment is terminated for any other reason, the date on which a Notice of Termination is given or any later date (within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice) set forth in such Notice of Termination. 

8.    COMPENSATION UPON TERMINATION OR DURING DISABILITY. In the event Executive is disabled or his employment terminates during the Employment Period, the Company shall provide Executive with the payments and benefits set forth below. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments set forth in this Section 8 constitute liquidated damages for termination of his employment during the Employment Period.

Accordingly, Executive covenants and agrees as follows:

7

10.1.1 

Executive agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other than in the course of Executive’s employment and for the benefit of the Company, either during the period of Executive’s employment or at any time thereafter, any nonpublic, proprietary or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, affiliated companies or businesses, which shall have been obtained by Executive during Executive’s employment by the Company.  Included, without limitation, among such protected proprietary or confidential information are trade secrets, trade "know-how", inventions, customer lists, business plans, operational methods, pricing policies, marketing plans, sales plans, identity of suppliers or customers, sales, profits or other financial information, all of which is confidential to the Company and not generally known in the relevant trade or industry.

10.1.3  

Executive acknowledges that he performs services of a unique nature for the Company that are irreplaceable, and that his performance of such services to a competing business will result in irreparable harm to the Company. Accordingly, during Executive’s employment hereunder and for the one (1) year period thereafter, Executive agrees that Executive will not, directly or indirectly, (i) compete with respect to any services or products of the Company which are either being offered or are being developed by the Company as of the date of termination; or (ii)  own, manage, operate, control, be employed by (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, and whether or not for compensation) or render services to any

10.1.6  

If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any state or custody that any restriction in Section 10 of this Agreement is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or invalid or unenforceable under the laws of that state, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction shall not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants which shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid or unenforceable portions, and that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that state, province, or country.

10.1.7  

The parties hereto intend to and hereby confer jurisdiction to enforce the Restrictive Covenants upon the courts of any jurisdiction within the geographical scope of such Restrictive Covenants.  In the event that the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions shall hold such Restrictive Covenants wholly 

9

      Attention: Gilles Poliquin,
President

       

      RE:
Letter of Intent to acquire certain assets and liabilities from 9151-4877 Quebec
Inc. (Operating as “Dialek Telecom”) (“Target”).

      

      

      Mr.
Poliquin,

      

      Following
our previous conversations, Teliphone Inc. ("Teliphone") is pleased to confirm
its interest in acquiring certain assets and liabilities of Target (the
"Proposed Transaction"). This Letter of Intent (“LOI”) is to be construed only
as an expression of the general terms upon which Teliphone would be willing to
do the Proposed Transaction.

      

      1. Certain
Assumptions

      

      In
submitting this letter, Teliphone has, among other things, assumed the following
facts:

      

      1.1 the
Proposed Transaction contemplated hereby will have no material adverse effect on
Targets
current and future business;

      

      1.2 the
assets of Target are in good working order and are owned by Target free and
clear of all hypothecs, security interests, encumbrances and charges of any
nature whatsoever ("Charges").

      

      1.3 there
has not been any adverse change in the financial position, prospects or affairs
of Target since the date where Teliphone received financial statements of
Target;

      

      1.4 no
person has a right (actual or contingent), warrant or option to acquire any of
the issued and outstanding stock of Target, nor do they have any warrant or
option to acquire any of its assets.

      

      1.5 the
parties shall enter into an asset and liability purchase agreement (the
"Definitive Agreement") in relation to the acquisition of the Assets hereby
contemplated no later than April 1st, 2008
(the "Target Date").  It is understood that the transaction will be
effective from February 15th, 2008
(the "Closing Date").

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          1

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

      2. Purchase
Price

      

      2.1 On
the basis of the information available to Teliphone at this time and subject to
a due diligence review, the purchase price (the "Purchase Price") payable for
the assets and liabilities as outlined in Schedule A hereto will be calculated
on the basis of the parameters set out in Schedule B hereto.

      

      2.2.
Target is also in possession of a $150,000 operating line of credit facility
which will be made available to Teliphone in order to assist in managing the
difference between the payables and receivables on a daily basis as outlined in
Schedule A.  The interest rate will be at 18% per annum on funds
withdrawn.

      

      3. Payment of Purchase
Price

      

      In the
event Target elects to receive payment with, in whole or in part, Teliphone
shares, and subject to finalization of the structure of the Proposed Transaction
by the Target Date, portions of the Purchase Price, if selected by Target, shall
be payable, in whole or in part, by the issuance and allotment of common shares
of its capital stock (the "Consideration") at a price per share in accordance
with fair market value at the time of issuance.

      

      4.
Liabilities

      

      Target

Proposed Transaction, and in order to induce Teliphone to enter into the
Proposed Transaction, Target hereby agrees that, during the period ending on the
Closing Date Target will not, directly or indirectly, undertake new negotiations
with any party other than with Teliphone for the merger, sale or disposition of
all or any part of the Shares, or Target’s business or its assets, or solicit
any enquiries or provide any information with respect to the same and will
promptly advise Teliphone of its receipt of any unsolicited proposals. In the

shall immediately pay to Teliphone a break-up fee of CDN$75,000.

      

      10. Applicable Laws and
Consent to Jurisdiction

      

      10.1 You

have been made and executed, and will be governed by and construed in accordance

the courts having jurisdiction in and for the City of Montreal, Province of
Quebec, and the parties hereto consent and submit in advance to such
jurisdiction and agree that venue will be proper in such courts on any such
matter. The choice of forum set forth in this section shall not be deemed to
preclude the enforcement of any judgment obtained in such forum or the taking of
any action under this Letter of Interest to enforce the same, in any appropriate
jurisdiction.
