 Dear Bill: 
  
 I am pleased to confirm our interest in retaining you as a management consultant to QoVox Corporation (the “Company”). You and the Company can each terminate your consulting arrangement at any time, with or
without cause on five (5) business days prior notice. 
  
 As
a management consultant, you shall have duties consistent with your position as are prescribed, from time to time, by the Company’s management team. In addition, you may be required, without additional compensation, to perform services for or
on behalf of one or more of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates. 
  
 You will perform substantially all of your services from your office in Germany. However, you will be expected to travel to the United States, from time to time, to the extent permissible under U.S. immigration laws,
to attend business meetings and to otherwise assist the Company. 
  
 If you sign and return to the Company a copy of this letter, then you will then be entitled to be compensated as follows: 
  
 1. A monthly consulting fee of $14,600, payable in accordance with the Company’s regular monthly payroll cycle, beginning as of the Company’s
receipt of this letter, together with a one-time signing bonus of two million (2,000,000) restricted shares of Common Stock of the Company’s parent, Datameg Corporation, which will first be available for sale in two years, assuming SEC
Rule 144(k) remains applicable and in effect. In the event that this Consulting Agreement is extended beyond December 31, 2005, you shall be entitled to consulting fees at an annual rate of $175,200, payable in accordance with the
Company’s regular monthly payroll cycle. 
  
 2. A
discretionary bonus of up to 70% of your base pay depending on your contribution to the Company’s commercial success, as reasonably determined by the Company’s Board or Compensation Committee, as more particularly described on the
following pages under the caption “Discretionary Bonus”. 
  
 The Company and you each acknowledge and agree that you are acting only as an independent contractor and are not providing such services as an employee of the Company or in any other capacity. You shall be responsible for payment of all
taxes with respect to the compensation and any other payments payable hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed to create any partnership or joint venture between you and the Company. Further, as a 

 
consultant of the Company, you shall not be entitled to receive any Company benefits that are offered to its employees. 
  
 If you agree with the foregoing, please sign and return to me the three
documents listed above and following pages, which are a material part of, and are hereby incorporated into, our agreement with you. 
  
 Very truly yours, 
  
 /s/ Mark P. McGrath

budgeted targets, also as reasonably determined by Datameg’s Compensation Committee. Your goals and targets for the period ending December 31, 2005 are set forth on Schedule 1 hereto. All such goals shall be reviewed quarterly due
to the potentially high growth nature of the enterprise; provided however, in all cases, the Company may pay to you any bonus, or no bonus, as it may reasonably determine. 
  
 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation 
  
 1. During the term of your consulting arrangement, you will not on your own or another’s behalf (as an officer,
director, stockholder, partner, associate, owner, employee, principal or otherwise) directly or indirectly compete, solicit or do business (within the geographical areas set forth below) which is the same, similar to or otherwise in competition with
the business engaged in by the Company or its Affiliates, with persons or entities: (A) who are customers of the Company or its Affiliates; (B) who you solicited, negotiated, contracted, serviced or had contact with on the Company’s
or its Affiliates’ behalf;

above apply to the following geographical areas: (a) each town, city and county in Europe and of the United States and Canada, including without limitation the states of North Carolina, Delaware, Massachusetts and California and each state
immediately adjacent to those states; (b) any city, metropolitan area or county in which the Company or its Affiliates is located or does or, during the term of your consulting arrangement, did business; (c) any city, metropolitan area or
county in which your services were provided, or for which you had responsibility, while serving as a consultant to the Company. 
  
 3. As used in this Agreement, “Competitor” means any company or person engaged in providing quality control or testing technology, equipment or
services for the voice, VoIP, data or video communications industry. 
  
 4. You agree that the restrictive covenants contained above in this Agreement are reasonably necessary to protect the Company’s and its Affiliates’ legitimate business interests, are reasonable with respect to time and territory
and scope of activities prohibited, and do not interfere with public interest or public policy. You further agree that the descriptions of the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are sufficiently accurate and definite and you
understand the scope and meaning of the covenants. If any court should determine that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable for any reason, you specifically agree and request that the court making such determination shall modify and
reform such provision or provisions and, in its or their modified form, specifically enforce this Agreement. 
  

 3 

 5. The provisions of this Agreement will in no way act to diminish your obligations to the Company or any
Affiliate under any other agreement or agreements related to confidentiality, non-competition or work products previously executed by you or which you may execute in the future or simultaneously with this Agreement. 
  
 6. You represent and warrant that your consulting arrangement with the
Company and performance under this Agreement will not breach any duty or obligation owed by you to another under any contract or otherwise, violate any confidence of another, or violate any law or recognized standard of ethics or business custom.

  
 7. You agree that a breach or violation of the terms or
conditions of this Agreement will result in immediate and irreparable harm to the Company and/or its Affiliates in an amount which may be impossible to ascertain at the time of any breach or violation, and that the remedies at law for such breach
may not adequately compensate the Company and/or its Affiliates for such breach. Therefore, you agree that in the event of such a breach, the Company and/or its Affiliates shall be entitled to injunctive relief or such other remedy as a court of
competent jurisdiction may provide. You agree, however, that such remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy the Company and/or its Affiliates may have. 
  
 Confidential Information 
  
 1. You shall, during the period of your consulting arrangement with Company and at all times thereafter, treat as confidential and, except as required by
law or in the performance of your duties with Company, not disclose, publish or otherwise make available to the public or to any individual, firm, corporation or other entity any Confidential Material (as hereinafter defined). 
  
 2. You agree that all Confidential Material, together with all of your notes
and records relating thereto, and all copies or other reproductions, electronic or otherwise, thereof in your possession, are the exclusive property of Company and you agree to return such material to Company promptly upon termination of your
consulting arrangement with Company. 
  
 3. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not apply to information or knowledge which was publicly available prior to disclosure to you or becomes publicly available through no wrongful act or failure by you. 
  
 4. For the purpose of this Agreement, the term “Confidential

conceive, discover or reduce to practice any invention, modification, discovery, design, development, improvement, enhancement, process, formula, data, technique, computer program, framework, methodology, analytical approach, work of authorship,
know-how, trade secret or other intellectual property right whatsoever or any interest therein (whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes or subject to analogous protection) that relates to the business of the
Company (including its subsidiaries or affiliates), or results from the use of premises or equipment owned, leased or contracted for by the Company (including its subsidiaries or affiliates) (collectively, “Inventions”), such Inventions
and all intellectual property rights worldwide therein and all the benefits thereof shall immediately become the sole and absolute property of the Company. 
  
 2. You shall promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) each such Invention and hereby assign any rights you may have or acquire
in the Invention and benefits and/or rights resulting therefrom to the Company without compensation; provided, however, that to the extent such assignment is not permitted by applicable law, the Company shall at all times have the
right to receive and you hereby grant to the Company an exclusive, worldwide perpetual license to use in any manner it deems appropriate the Inventions on a royalty free basis. 
  
 3. Upon disclosure of each Invention to the Company and thereafter, you shall, at the request and expense of the Company,
sign, execute, make and do all such deeds, documents, acts and things as the Company and its duly authorized agents may reasonably require: 
  
 (a) to apply for, obtain and vest in the name of the Company alone (unless the Company otherwise directs) letters patent, copyrights, industrial designs
or other analogous protection in any country throughout the world and when so obtained or vested to enforce, renew and restore the same; and 
  
 (b) to defend any opposition proceedings in respect of such applications and any opposition proceedings or petitions or applications for revocation of
such letters patent, copyright, industrial designs or other analogous protection. 
  
 If the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure your signature on any document required in connection with letters patent, copyright, industrial design or other analogous protection relating to an Invention, whether because of
your physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason whatsoever, you hereby irrevocably designates and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as your agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in your behalf and stead
to execute and file any such documents or documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent, copyright, industrial design or other analogous protection thereon with the same legal force
and effect as if executed by you.

 2. Waiver by the Company of any breach of any of the provisions of this

 7Restricted Stock Agreement between William J. Mortimer and Datameg Corporation

 Exhibit 10.9 
  
 Datameg Corporation 
  
 Restricted Stock Agreement 
  
 This Restricted Stock Agreement is entered into as of July 25, 2005 by and between Datameg Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and William J. Mortimer (the “Purchaser”). 
  
 Introduction 
  
 The Purchaser is
currently a management consultant to QoVox Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“QoVox”), pursuant to the terms of a certain Management Consultant Agreement (the “Consultant Agreement”) dated July 18, 2005
(the “Effective Date”). 
  
 Concurrently with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company is selling to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser is purchasing from the Company, Twelve Million (12,000,000) shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
  
 The purpose of this Agreement, among other things, is to further align the interests of the Purchaser and the Company by allowing the Purchaser to share in the Company’s potential success. To that end, the
Purchaser will devote his or her full time best efforts to the Company’s work in a manner consistent with the directions of the Company’s management. 
  

An index of defined terms is set forth in Section 17 of this Agreement. 
  
 NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. Purchase and Sale of Shares;
Restriction on Transfer of Shares; Equity Incentive Plan. 
  
 (a) Purchase and Sale. On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, Twelve Million (12,000,000) shares of the Company’s
Common Stock (the “Shares”). The Purchaser shall pay to the Company $0.006 per share (the “Initial Purchase Price Per Share”) for each of the Shares for a total of $72,000 (the “Purchase Price”). 
  
 (b) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price for the Shares shall be
made by the Purchaser to the Company by: (i) check, (ii) wire transfer of immediately available funds, or (iii) forgoing receipt of consulting fees (as described in Section 1 of the Consultant Agreement), in accordance with
Section 16 below. The sale and purchase shall take place at the offices of the Company as of the date first set forth above. 
  
 (c) Transfer Restrictions. The Purchaser shall not assign, sell, encumber, give, distribute, hypothecate, dispose or otherwise transfer (all
hereinafter referred to as a “transfer”) the Shares, except in compliance with the other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, the Purchaser may make a Permitted Transfer. 

 2. Right of Repurchase. 
  
 (a) Scope of Repurchase Right. The Shares shall be subject to the following rights of repurchase by the Company
(each, a “Right of Repurchase”): 
  
 (i) All of the
Shares (the “Restricted Shares”) shall initially be subject to a right of repurchase by the Company after termination of the Purchaser’s service as a full time consultant to, or an employee of, QoVox for any reason whatsoever (the
“Ordinary Right of Repurchase”), subject to lapsing pursuant to Section 2(c) below; and 
  
 (ii) All of the Shares shall be subject to a right of repurchase by the Company after termination of the Purchaser’s service as a full time
consultant to, or an employee of, QoVox for any reason whatsoever (the “Termination Right of Repurchase”). 
  
 (b) Condition Precedent to Exercise. A Right of Repurchase shall be exercisable only following the date when the Purchaser’s employment with,
or service as a full time consultant to, the Company is terminated by the Company with or without cause or terminated by the Purchaser for any reason, and thereafter for 180 days. 
  
 (c) Lapse of Ordinary Right of Repurchase. The Ordinary Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to the Shares,
so long as the Purchaser has served as a full time consultant to, or an employee of, QoVox, in accordance with Schedule 1 hereto. In addition, in the event of a “Change of Control” (as defined below) that occurs while you are a full
time consultant to, or an employee of, QoVox, the Ordinary Right of Repurchase shall lapse as to: (i) 50% of the Shares if such Change of Control occurs on or prior to the second anniversary of this Agreement, (ii) 75% of the shares if
such Change of Control occurs after the second anniversary of this Agreement but on or prior to the third anniversary of this Agreement, and (iii) all of the Shares if such Change of Control occurs after the third anniversary of this Agreement.
As used herein, “Change of Control” means (A) the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with a corporation or other entity not previously affiliated with the Company, (B) the sale of all or substantially all of the
Company’s outstanding capital stock in a single transaction or series of related transactions, unless, upon consummation of such sale of capital stock, the holders of voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such merger,
consolidation or sale of capital stock, as the case may be, own directly or indirectly more than 50% of the voting power to elect directors of the acquiring entity, (C) the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company to a person
not previously affiliated with the Company, in a single transaction or series of related transactions. 
  
 (d) Repurchase Cost. 
  
 (i) If the Company exercises an Ordinary Right of Repurchase, the Company shall pay the Purchaser an amount equal to the Initial Purchase Price Per Share
for each of the Shares being repurchased (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, reorganizations and the like). 
  
 (ii) If the Company exercises a Termination Right of Repurchase and no Forfeiting Event has occurred, the Company shall pay the Purchaser an amount equal
to the 
  

 2 

 
Fair Market Value of the Shares being repurchased (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, reorganizations and the like).

  
 (iii) If the Company exercises a Termination Right of
Repurchase and one or more Forfeiting Events have occurred, the Company shall pay the Purchaser an amount equal to the Initial Purchase Price Per Share for each of the Shares being repurchased (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock
combinations, reorganizations and the like). 
  
 (e) Exercise
of Repurchase Right. A Right of Repurchase shall be exercisable only by written notice delivered to the Purchaser prior to the expiration of the applicable period specified in subsection (b) above. The notice shall set forth the date on
which the repurchase is to be effected. Such date shall not be more than 60 days after the date of the notice. The certificate(s) representing the Shares to be repurchased shall, prior to the close of business on the date specified for the
repurchase, be delivered to the Company properly endorsed for transfer, free and clear of any encumbrances, restrictions, liens or security interests thereon, except for the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and under applicable securities
laws. The Company shall, concurrently with the receipt of such certificate(s), pay to the Purchaser the purchase price determined according to subsection (d) above as follows: 
  
 (i) If the Company is exercising an Ordinary Right of Repurchase or a Termination Right of Repurchase (and no Forfeiting
Event has occurred), payment shall be made in cash or cash equivalents or by canceling any indebtedness of the Company to the Purchaser; and 
  
 (ii) If the Company is exercising a Termination Right of Repurchase (and one or more Forfeiting Events have occurred), payment shall be made by
(x) first offsetting damages, if any, suffered by the Company as a result of the Purchaser’s breach causing the Forfeiting Event, (y) next reducing or canceling any indebtedness of the Company to the Purchaser, and (z) the
balance shall be paid, at the option of the Company, in cash or cash or by delivery of a promissory note, with interest payable at the lowest applicable federal rate, and a maturity three years after the date of issue. 
  
 The Right of Repurchase shall not be the Company’s sole remedy in the event of a
Forfeiting Event, but shall be in addition to any other remedy available to the Company at law or in equity. The Right of Repurchase shall terminate with respect to any Shares for which it has not been timely exercised pursuant to this subsection
(e). 
  
 (f) Escrow. Upon issuance, the certificates for
Restricted Shares shall be deposited in escrow with the Company to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property distributed upon Shares that are Restricted
Shares shall immediately be delivered to the Company to be held in escrow. All regular cash dividends on Restricted Shares (or other securities at the time held in escrow) shall be paid directly to the Purchaser and shall not be held in escrow.
Restricted Shares, together with any other assets or securities held in escrow hereunder, shall be (i) surrendered to the Company for repurchase and cancellation upon the Company’s exercise of its Right of Repurchase or (ii) released
to the Purchaser upon the Purchaser’s request to the extent the Shares are no longer Restricted Shares (but not more frequently than once every six months). In any event, when all of the Shares (and any other 
  

 3 

 
vested assets and securities attributable thereto) are no longer Restricted Shares, then such Shares (and other vested assets and securities) shall be
released to the Purchaser. 
  
 (g) Voting Rights. Nothing
contained herein shall prevent the Purchaser from exercising his or her voting rights with respect to Shares that have not been repurchased by the Company pursuant to its Right of Repurchase hereunder. 
  
 3. Certain Restrictions on Transfer. 
  
 (a) Purchaser Representations and Covenants. In connection with the
issuance and acquisition of the Shares contemplated hereunder, the Purchaser hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to and agrees with the Company as follows: 
  
 (i) The Purchaser is acquiring and will hold the Shares for investment for his or her account only and not with a view to,
or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act. 
  
 (ii) The Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom and that the
Shares must be held indefinitely, unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or the Purchaser obtains an opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that such registration is not
required. The Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares. 
  
 (iii) The Purchaser is aware of the adoption of Rule 144 by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, which permits limited public
resales of securities acquired in a non-public offering, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, without limitation, the availability of certain current public information about the issuer, the resale occurring only after the
holding period required by Rule 144 has been satisfied, the sale occurring through an unsolicited “broker’s transaction,” and the amount of securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. The
Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied and that the Company has no plans to satisfy these conditions in the foreseeable future. 
  
 (iv) The Purchaser will not transfer the Shares in violation of the
Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules promulgated thereunder, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Purchaser agrees that he or she will not dispose of the Shares unless and until he or she has
complied with all requirements of this Agreement and he or she has provided the Company with written assurances, in substance and form satisfactory to the Company, that the proposed disposition does not require registration of the Shares under the
Securities Act or all appropriate action necessary for compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or with any exemption from registration available under the Securities Act (including Rule 144) has been obtained. 

 
 (v) The Purchaser had been furnished with, and has had access to, such
information as he or she considered necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to invest in the Shares, and the Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers 

  

 4 

 
from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance of the Shares. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for his or her current needs
and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity in connection with his purchase of the Shares. The Purchaser’s overall commitment to investments, which are not readily marketable, is not disproportionate to the net worth of the
Purchaser, and the Purchaser’s investment in the Shares will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive. The Purchaser has read carefully and understands this Agreement and has consulted his or her own attorney, accountant or
investment adviser with respect to the investment contemplated hereby and its suitability for the Purchaser. The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial, securities, investments and business matters that he or she is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of his purchase of the Shares. 
  
 (vi) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 
  
 (vii) The Purchaser is aware that his or her investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk
of complete loss. The Purchaser is able, without impairing his or her financial condition, to hold the Shares for an indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of his or her investment in the Shares. 
  
 (b) Securities Law Restrictions. The Company at its discretion may
impose restrictions upon the transfer of the Shares (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates or the imposition of stop-transfer instructions) if, in the judgment of the Company, such restrictions are necessary or
desirable in order to achieve compliance with the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state or any other law. 
  
 (c) Market Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective
registration statement filed under the Securities Act, including the Company’s initial public offering, the Purchaser shall not directly or indirectly sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or
other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or otherwise transfer, or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to any of the Company’s equity
securities without the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters. Such restriction (the “Market Stand-Off”) shall be in effect for such period of time following the date of the final prospectus for the offering as may be
requested by the Company or such underwriters, however, in no event shall such period exceed 180 days. In order to enforce the Market Stand-Off, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Shares until the end of the
applicable stand-off period. The Company’s underwriters shall be intended beneficiaries of the agreement set forth in this subsection (c). This subsection (c) shall not apply to Shares registered in a public offering under the Securities
Act. 
  
 (d) Rights of the Company. The Company shall not
be required to (i) transfer on its books any Shares that have been transferred in contravention of this Agreement or (ii) treat as the owner of Shares, or otherwise to accord voting, dividend or liquidation rights to, any transferee to
whom Shares have been transferred in contravention of this Agreement. 
  
 4. Adjustments; Termination of Rights of Purchaser. 
  
  

 5 

 (a) In the event any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, recapitalization, reorganization or

 (b) If the Company makes available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the
consideration for the Shares to be repurchased in accordance with Section 2 of this Agreement, then after such time the person from whom such Shares are to be repurchased shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such Shares (other than
the right to receive payment of such consideration in accordance with this Agreement). Such Shares shall be deemed to have been repurchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof, whether or not the certificate(s) therefor have been
delivered as required by this Agreement.

as amended (the “Code”). Such election may be filed only within 30 days after the date of purchase. The Purchaser should consult with his or her tax advisor to determine the tax consequences of acquiring the Shares and the advantages and
disadvantages of filing the Code Section 83(b) election. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is his or her sole responsibility, and not the Company’s, to file a timely election under Code Section 83(b).

 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
including counterparts by telecopier, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
