The parties acknowledge that the HHPN Option Agreement being
assigned was acquired solely at Xxx Xxxxx'x expense. Xxx Xxxxx, as an
Officer of both Cyclone and Phoenix, has been induced to transfer the
HHPN Option Agreement to Phoenix, at no charge, with the expectation
that it will increase the future value of his ownership in Phoenix.
That future value is subject to many variables including potential
litigation and claims by former associates, directors, officers,
suppliers, debtors or any other significant or material relationships
with Phoenix and Xxx Xxxxx has agreed to transfer the HHPN Option
Agreement to Phoenix conditionally, in that, if there are material
deficiencies in the information that was supplied to him by the former
board or Phoenix ("Deficiencies") and those Deficiencies result in the
reduction of value of his ownership in Phoenix then Cyclone has the
right, at its discretion, to either cancel this Agreement or claim from
the Company restricted shares to make up the difference in value
enjoyed by Xxx Xxxxx ("Difference") that would have resulted had those
Deficiencies not existed. A mediator or arbitrator, who shall be
mutually acceptable or appointed by the courts, shall first attempt to
calculate any such Difference prior to the courts having to make that
calculation. If the Agreement is cancelled, the Company alone shall be
responsible to and agrees to return any monies received from investors
who participate in private or public offerings made by the Company
during the term of this Agreement. The Company hereby indemnifies
Cyclone and Xxx Xxxxx from all liability arising out of such an action,
or any claim whatsoever, related to this Agreement, including cost of
defense.
GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES: The parties hereto agree that any
disagreement or dispute between them shall first be attempted to be
remedied by mediation or arbitration. In the event that agreement
cannot be reached on the appointment of an independent mediator or
arbiter then the parties hereto agree to accept the appointment of a
mediator or arbiter who shall be appointed, following application for
such appointment by the court. If the dispute cannot be remedied by
mediation or arbitration then this agreement shall be governed for all
purposes by the laws of the province of British Columbia. For any
disputes arising among the parties hereto, venue shall lie with the
court of competent jurisdiction in Vancouver, British Columbia.
ASSIGNMENT: This Assignment Agreement may be assigned by either
party without the consent of the other parties.
This Agreement supersedes all previous assignment agreements
entered between Cyclone Financing Group, Inc. and Phoenix Resources
Technologies, Inc.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have agreed to and have
caused this agreement to be executed effective as of the date first
above written.
