Article V

CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-COMPETITION

5.1                   Maintenance of Confidential
Information.  The Contractor acknowledges
that in the course of its appointment hereunder the Contractor will, either
directly or indirectly, have access to and be entrusted with information
(whether oral, written or by inspection) relating to the Company or its
respective affiliates, associates or customers (the “Confidential
Information”).  For the purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” includes,
without limitation, any and all Developments (as defined herein), trade
secrets, inventions, innovations, techniques, processes, formulas, drawings,
designs, products, systems, creations, improvements, documentation, data,
specifications, technical reports, customer lists, supplier lists, distributor 

 

 

	

  5

  

 

lists, distribution channels and methods, retailer lists,
reseller lists, employee information, financial information, sales or marketing
plans, competitive analysis reports and any other thing or information
whatsoever, whether copyrightable or uncopyrightable or patentable or
unpatentable.  The Contractor acknowledges that the Confidential Information
constitutes a proprietary right, which the Company is entitled to protect. 
Accordingly the Contractor covenants and agrees that during the Term and
thereafter until such time as all the Confidential Information becomes publicly
known and made generally available through no action or inaction of the
Contractor, the Contractor will keep in strict confidence the Confidential
Information and shall not, without prior written consent of the Company in each
instance, disclose, use or otherwise disseminate the Confidential Information,
directly or indirectly, to any third party.

5.2                   Exceptions. The general prohibition contained in Section 5.1
against the unauthorized disclosure, use or dissemination of the  Confidential Information shall not apply in
respect of any Confidential Information that:  

(a)   
is available
to the public generally in the form disclosed;

(b)  
becomes part
of the public domain through no fault of the Contractor;

(c)   
is already
in the lawful possession of the Contractor at the time of receipt of the
Confidential Information; or

(d)  
is compelled
by applicable law to be disclosed, provided that the Contractor gives the
Company prompt written notice of such requirement prior to such disclosure and
provides assistance in obtaining an order protecting the Confidential
Information from public disclosure.

5.3                   Developments.  Any information, data, work product or any other
thing or documentation whatsoever which the Contractor, either by itself or in
conjunction with any third party, conceives, makes, develops, acquires or
acquires knowledge of during the Contractor’s appointment with the Company or
which the Contractor, either by itself or in conjunction with any third party,
shall conceive, make, develop, acquire or acquire knowledge of (collectively
the “Developments”) during the Term or at any time thereafter during which the
Contractor is engaged by the Company that is related to the business of mining
property acquisition and exploration shall automatically form part of the
Confidential Information and shall become and remain the sole and exclusive
property of the Company.  Accordingly, the Contractor does hereby irrevocably,
exclusively and absolutely assign, transfer and convey to the Company in
perpetuity all worldwide right, title and interest in and to any and all
Developments and other rights of whatsoever nature and kind in or arising from
or pertaining to all such Developments created or produced by the Contractor
during the course of performing this Agreement, including, without limitation,
the right to effect any registration in the world to protect the foregoing
rights.  The Company shall have the sole, absolute and unlimited right
throughout the world, therefore, to protect the Developments by patent,
copyright, industrial design, trademark or otherwise and to make, have made,
use, reconstruct, repair, modify, reproduce, publish, distribute and sell the
Developments, in whole or in part, or combine the Developments with any other
matter, or not use the Developments at all, as the Company sees fit.

5.4                   Protection of Developments. 
The Contractor does hereby agree that, both
before and after the termination of this Agreement, the Contractor shall
perform such further acts and execute and deliver such further instruments,
writings, documents and assurances (including, without limitation, specific
assignments and other documentation which may be required anywhere in the world
to register evidence of ownership of the rights assigned pursuant hereto) as
the Company shall reasonably require in order to give full effect to the true
intent and purpose of 

 

 

	

  6

  

 

the assignment made under Section
0 hereof.  If the Company is for any reason unable, after reasonable effort, to
secure execution by the Contractor on documents needed to effect any
registration or to apply for or prosecute any right or protection relating to
the Developments, the Contractor hereby designates and appoints the Company and
its duly authorized officers and agents as the Contractor’s agent and attorney
to act for and in the Contractor’s behalf and stead to execute and file any
such document and do all other lawfully permitted acts necessary or advisable
in the opinion of the Company to effect such registration or to apply for or
prosecute such right or protection, with the same legal force and effect as if
executed by the Contractor.

5.5                   Remedies.  The parties to this Agreement recognize that any
violation or threatened violation by the Contractor of any of the provisions
contained in this Article V will result in immediate and irreparable damage to
the Company  and that the Company
could not adequately be compensated for such damage by monetary award alone. 
Accordingly, the Contractor agrees that in the event of any such violation or
threatened violation, the Company shall, in addition to any other remedies
available to the Company at law or in equity, be entitled as a matter of right
to apply to such relief by way of restraining order, temporary or permanent
injunction and to such other relief as any court of competent jurisdiction may
deem just and proper.

5.6                   Reasonable Restrictions. 
The Contractor agrees that all restrictions
in this Article V are reasonable and valid, and all defenses  to the strict enforcement thereof by the Company
are hereby waived by the Contractor.

Article VI

DEVOTION TO CONTRACT

6.1                   Devotion to Contract. 
During the term of this Agreement, the Contractor shall devote sufficient time,
attention, and ability to the business of the Company, and to any associated
company, as is reasonably necessary for the proper performance of the Services

require the Contractor to devote its exclusive time, attention and ability to
the business of the Company.  During the term of this Agreement, the Contractor
shall, and shall cause each of its agents assigned to performance of the
Services on behalf of the Contractor, to:

(a)   
at all times perform the Services
faithfully, diligently, to the best of its abilities and in the best interests
of the Company;

securities laws or under an exemption from such registration requirements;

all fees, costs and expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating,
preparing or defending against any claim, lawsuit, administrative proceeding or
investigation whether commenced or threatened) arising out of or based upon any

extent possessed or obtainable without unreasonable effort or expense,
necessary to verify the accuracy of the information about the Company;
