(j) Additional duties are detailed on Exhibit A, which is the last page of this agreement.

3.         Allocation of Time and Energies.  The Consultant hereby promises to perform and discharge faithfully the responsibilities which may be assigned to the Consultant from time to time by the officers and duly authorized representatives of the Company in connection with the conduct of its financial and public relations and communications activities, so long as such activities are in compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.  Consultant and staff shall diligently and thoroughly provide the consulting services required hereunder.  Although no specific hours-per-day requirement will be required, Consultant and the Company agree that Consultant will perform the duties set forth herein above in a diligent and professional manner. The parties acknowledge and agree that a disproportionately large amount of the effort to be expended and the costs to be incurred by the Consultant and the benefits to be received by the Company are expected to occur within or shortly after the first two months of the effectiveness of this Agreement.  It is explicitly understood that Consultant's performance of its duties hereunder will in no way be measured by the price of the Company's common stock, nor the trading volume of the Company's common stock

4.           Remuneration. Company agrees to pay Consultant a monthly retainer of $8,750 per month. The first payment is due upon the signing of this agreement, but in any event no later than three days following the signing of the signing of this agreement.  Subsequent payments are due on the first day of every month during the contract period.

For undertaking this engagement and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company agrees to issue and deliver to the Consultant a “Commencement Bonus” payable in the form of shares of the Company's Common Stock (“Common Stock”) .The Company agrees to issue 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. This Commencement Bonus shall be issued to the Consultant immediately following execution of this Agreement and shall, when issued and delivered to Consultant, be fully paid and non-assessable.

The Company understands and agrees that Consultant has foregone significant opportunities to accept this engagement and that the Company derives substantial benefit from the execution of this Agreement and the ability to announce its relationship with Consultant.  The shares of Common Stock issued as a Commencement Bonus, therefore, constitute payment for Consultant’s agreement to consult to the Company and are a nonrefundable, non-apportionable, and non-ratable retainer; such shares of common stock are not a prepayment for future services.  If the Company decides to terminate this Agreement prior to January 31, 2011 for any reason whatsoever, it is agreed and understood that Consultant will not be requested or demanded by the Company to return any of the shares of Common Stock paid to it as Commencement Bonus hereunder. Further, if and in the event the Company is acquired in whole or in part, during the term of this agreement, it is agreed and understood Consultant will not be requested or demanded by the Company to return any of the shares of Common stock paid to it hereunder. It is further agreed that if at any time during the term of this agreement, the Company or substantially all of the Company’s assets are merged with or acquired by another entity, or some other change occurs in the legal entity that constitutes the Company, the Consultant shall retain and will not be requested by the Company to return any of the shares. The Company further agrees that all shares issued to Consultant hereunder shall carry “piggyback registration rights” whereby such shares will be included in the next registration statement filed by the company.

 

4.1 With each transfer of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Shares”), Company shall cause to be issued a certificate representing the Common Stock and a written opinion of counsel for the Company stating that said shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and that the issuance and eventual transfer of them to Consultant has been duly authorized by the Company.  Company warrants that all Shares issued to Consultant pursuant to this Agreement shall have been validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and that the issuance and any transfer of them to Consultant shall have been duly authorized by the Company’s board of directors.

4.2 Consultant acknowledges that the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Shares”) have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and accordingly are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Act.  As such, the Shares may not be resold or transferred unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such resale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of that Act.

4.3              In connection with the acquisition of Shares hereunder, the Consultant represents and warrants to the Company, to the best of its/his knowledge, as follows:
