pursuits.

1.3          Business  Opportunities  the Property of the Company.  The Employee

become  aware of, directly or indirectly, or have presented to him in any manner
which  relates  in  any  way  to  the  Company, either as it is now or as it may
develop,  and  such  business  opportunities,  inventions  or improvements shall
become  the exclusive property of the Company without any obligation on the part
of  the  Company  to  make  any  payments therefor in addition to the salary and
benefits  herein  described  to  the  Employee.

1.4          No  Personal  Use.  The  Employee shall not use any of the work the
Employee  shall  perform for the Company for any personal purposes without first
obtaining  the  prior  written  consent  of  the  Company.

2.          SALARY,  BONUSES  AND  BENEFITS

2.1          Salary.  In  consideration  of  the Employee providing the services
referred to herein, the Company agrees to pay the Employee an annual base salary
(the  "Annual  Base  Salary")  of  one  hundred  and fifty thousand U.S. dollars
($150,000)  less applicable deductions, payable subject to increase as from time
to  time  approved  by  the Board of Directors of the Company; provided that the
Company  will  not  be  obligated to pay any of the Annual Base Salary until the
Company  records  a  profit  as  determined  in  accordance  with  United States
Generally  Accepted Accounting Principles.  The Employee acknowledges and agrees
that  any of the Annual Base Salary is not payable until at least six (6) months
from  the  Effective  Date.

2.2          Benefits.  The  Company  shall  provide,  maintain  and  pay  for:

(a)     medical  insurance  for  the  Employee  and  his  immediate family as is
provided  by  the  Company's  medical  services  plan;  and

(b)     such  extended  health  and  other  benefits  for  the  Employee and his
immediate  family as are provided to senior management employees of the Company,
subject  to  the  eligibility  of  the  Employee.

2.3          Payment  in Cash or Shares.  All payments payable by the Company to
the  Employee,  including  the  Annual Base Salary and reimbursement of expenses
under  Section  4.1  hereof, shall be payable in cash or, at the election of the
Employee,  and  subject to the approval of the regulatory authorities, such will
be paid in whole or in part in common shares in the capital stock of the Company
("Remuneration  Shares"), issued at the 10 day average closing price (for the 10
days  prior  to  the  Employee's election) of the Company's common shares on any
stock  exchange  or  quotation system upon which the Company's common shares are
listed  for  trading.

<PAGE>

2.4          Signing  Bonus.  As  a  signing bonus the Company agrees to pay the
Employee  one  million (1,000,000) common shares (the "Signing Bonus Shares") in
the  capital  of  the  Company.  The  Signing  Bonus Shares shall be paid within
thirty  (30)  days  from  the  Effective  Date  of this Agreement.  The Employee
acknowledges  that  the  Signing  Bonus  Shares  will be subject to certain hold
periods, which to the knowledge of the Company is one year; however, the Company
will  add  registration  of  the  Signing  Bonus  Shares  to  any  other  share
registration  that  the  Company  may file with the United States Securities and
Exchange  Commission (the "SEC") during the year.  The Employee acknowledges and
agrees  that the Signing Bonus Shares and any Remuneration Shares may be subject
to  additional  resale  restrictions should the Employee become an affiliate (as
defined  under  United  States  securities  laws)  of  the  Company.

2.5          Compensation  Shares  .  In  consideration of the Employee entering
into  this  Agreement and continuing in such employment for a period of at least
one  year,  the  Company also agrees to pay the Employee one million (1,000,000)
common  shares  (the "Compensation Shares") in the capital of the Company.  Upon
or  as  soon  as  is  practical  after  the  issuance of the last tranche of the
Compensation  Shares, the Company will file a form S-8 or other appropriate form
with the SEC to effect registration.  The Shares shall vest as to 250,000 shares
on  each  of  the  following  dates  ("Vesting  Dates"):

(a)     at  the end of three (3) months from the Effective Date - 250,000 shares
(b)     at  the  end  of six (6) months from the Effective Date - 250,000 shares
(c)     at  the  end of nine (9) months from the Effective Date - 250,000 shares
(d)     at  the  end  of  twelve  (12)  months from the Effective Date - 250,000

The  share  certificates representing the Compensation Shares shall be delivered
on  or  immediately  after  each  of  the  Vesting  Dates.  If this Agreement is
terminated  for  any  reason,  those Compensation Shares that have vested in the
Employee  at  the  date  of  notice  of termination shall be deemed to have been
earned by the Employee, no reduction or refund shall take place and no claim for
any  additional shares, compensation, severance or consideration of any kind may
be  made  by  the  Employee.

2.6          Number  of  Shares  The  number  of  shares payable to the Employee
hereunder  is  subject to adjustment from time to time if the Company is subject
to  a  consolidation, merger or transfer of assets which reclassifies or changes
its  outstanding  common  shares,  in  which  case the successor corporation (or
corporation  controlling  the  successor corporation of the Company, as the case
may  be)  shall  by operation of law assume the Company's obligations under this
Agreement.  As a condition to the consummation of such transaction, the Employee
shall  arrange for the person or entity obligated to issue securities or deliver
cash  or  other  assets  to  assume,  concurrently with the consummation of such
transaction,  the Employee's obligations hereunder by executing an instrument so
providing  and  further  providing  for  adjustments  which  shall  be as nearly
equivalent  as  may  be  practical  to  the  adjustments  provided  herein.

3.          VACATION

3.1          Entitlement  to  Vacation.  The  Company  acknowledges  that  the
Employee  shall  be  entitled  to  an  annual  vacation of three (3) weeks.  The
Employee  shall  use  his  best  efforts  to

<PAGE>

ensure  that such vacation is arranged with the Company in advance such that his
does  not  unduly  affect  the  operations  of  the  Company.

3.2          Increase  in Vacation.  The period set out in Section 3.1 above may
be  increased  from  time  to time as mutually agreed to by the Employee and the
Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company.

all  reasonable  out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Employee in or about the

be made within thirty (30) days of submission by the Employee of vouchers, bills
