3. Nature of Relationship

No provision of this Agreement is intended to create nor shall be deemed or construed to create any relationship between NBI and Company other than that of independent entities contracting with each other hereunder solely for the purpose of effecting the provisions of this Agreement.

The parties hereto are not and shall not be deemed for any purpose to be joint venturers or partners. Neither of the parties to this Agreement nor any of their respective officers, directors, or employees shall represent themselves as the employee, partner, or agent of the other party and shall not be deemed or construed to be the agent, employee, or partner of the other party.

Both parties agree to adhere to all applicable laws, rules, and/or regulations pertaining to the solicitations, and marketing of NBI products and services, except that Company shall not be responsible for the acts and/or omissions of customers, clients, potential customers, and/or potential clients it refers to NBI.

Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, neither party authorizes the other party to represent them for any purpose without prior written consent. The signature and agreement of both parties shall be necessary to bind the parties as to third parties, except for those cases in which to require the signature of both parties would defeat the purpose of the Agreement.

The Parties acknowledge the existence of a "Commission Agreement," dated May 4, 2001, which establishes a pricing plan under which NBI pays the Company a commission for certain sales by NBI. The Parties understand that the Agreement of May 4 and this Agreement are not ancillary and are to be administered and construed separately.

4. Recognition of Validity of Trademark

Company hereby agrees and shall at all times recognize the validity of any and all trademarks, service marks, and trade names of NBI and the ownership thereof by NBI as herein granted and shall not at any time put in issue or contest, either directly or indirectly, the validity of such trademarks, service marks or trade names. In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall give Company any interest in such trademarks, service marks, trade names, or in any design used in connection therewith. It is further understood and agreed that there is granted by this Agreement a permission, not coupled with an interest, to use of any such trademarks, service marks, trade names, or designs in connection with the license herein granted; such use to be in the manner and with the result of designating NBI as the source of and origin of such services and/or products.

Company also agrees that in the event of any actual or suspected infringement of any trade name, trademark, or service xxxx which is owned by NBI, that Company shall promptly report the same in writing to NBI. Determination of whether to institute any demand, suit or action with reference to any such suspected or actual infringement shall be made solely by NBI and, if instituted, it shall be instituted, controlled and maintained at the expense of NBI. Company agrees to cooperate fully with NBI with reference to any such demand, suit, or action.

NBI agrees to extend to Company the same rights and cooperation as set forth in this Paragraph 4 regarding the trademarks, service marks, and trade names of Company as Company has extended to NBI.

5. Term and Termination

The initial term of this Agreement shall begin on the date of this Agreement as set forth above, and shall continue for a period of one year from that date, unless terminated sooner pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Upon expiration of the initial term, this Agreement shall automatically renew on the same terms and conditions for successive one-year periods, unless terminated:

1. In writing, by certified mail, return receipt requested, at the address set forth as the principal address with one hundred, eighty (180) days notice by either party with or without cause. In the event this Agreement is terminated by NBI without cause, existing business and renewals will be honored for so long as membership fees are collected by NBI.
2. In writing, by certified mail, return receipt requested, at the address set forth as the principal address with thirty (30) days notice by either party "with cause" which is defined as follows:

1. Misrepresentation by either party of the NBI discount benefit programs in the marketplace
2. Default or breach by either party of the terms of this Agreement or those contained in any subsequent amendments or schedules.

1. By law, if any state or federal law or regulation is enacted or promulgated that prohibits the performance of any of the duties hereunder, or if any law is interpreted to prohibit such performance.

Either party may give written notice demanding that said default, breach, or misrepresentation be remedied within thirty days, and if the default is not remedied, this Agreement is deemed terminated. In the event of breach by either party of any covenants of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, that party shall forfeit all rights to any compensation that might otherwise be due. The parties also agree that damages and remedies at law for such breaches would be inadequate and that either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and shall be entitled to, an injunction by such court to prevent further breach thereof on the part of the other party. Each party agrees to pay all court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the other party in obtaining specific performance of, or any injunction against violation of, or continuous violation of, the requirements of this Agreement.

6. Confidentiality

For the purpose of this Section, Confidential Information shall mean all information, documents, names of customers/clients/members, software, present and future products, price quotes, proposed commission structures, and policies (including listing thereof and documentation related thereto) disclosed by either party hereto to the other during the term of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Confidential Information is proprietary to, and a valuable trade secret of, the disclosing party, and that any disclosure or unauthorized use thereof will cause irreparable harm to the disclosing party. Disclosure of any of the terms of this Agreement is grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties each agree and undertake to:

1. Treat Confidential Information in confidence and use it only in connection with this Agreement;
2. Not copy, in whole or in part, Confidential Information except insofar as is reasonably necessary for performance of the Agreement;
3. Not disclose Confidential Information;
4. Return Confidential Information, including all copies and records thereof, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, provided however, that the parties may retain such information as is reasonably necessary for the performance of the parties' respective duties and obligations after expiration of the Agreement;
5. Not use Confidential Information to compete or assist any person or entity in competing with the business of the other party or its affiliates; and
6. Not use, sell, or in any way violate the privacy of the clients/members names, which shall become available to each other through the servicing of this relationship.

7. Non-Competition

The Company for and on behalf of its officers, agents, directors, and principal shareholders agree that during the term of this Agreement, and for a period of one (1) year after this Agreement, it and they shall not directly or indirectly contract with any vendor listed in Schedule 1 unless excepted by Section 9 and listed on Schedule 3 of this Agreement, and

1. The Company shall not hire any employee or former employee of NBI during this period.
2. If the Company elects to establish its own Provider Network, it will not utilize NBI's confidential provider list(s) to solicit and/or contract with any providers made available to Company by NBI under the terms of this Agreement.
3. Company is not prohibited from establishing its own provider network(s) when soliciting providers from lists in the public domain.

The covenants by the Company contained in this paragraph are of the essence of this Agreement and NBI would not appoint the Company hereunder in the absence of such covenants. In consideration of such covenants for selling memberships and to entrust to Company provider lists, marketing materials, and other related confidential information pertaining to the business of NBI, the Company hereby expressly agrees that the utilization of such training and sales information in competition against NBI or its affiliates as hereinafter expressly prohibited would be grossly unfair to NBI and would cause continuing irreparable damage to NBI.

8. Non-Circumvention

Any direct sales leads or referrals developed, created or furnished by Company in the promotion and/or marketing of memberships in any of NBI's benefit programs which result in sales of, or negotiations for sales of memberships, shall be considered a potential client of Company. In order to prevent Company's potential clients from trying to contract directly with NBI, Company must complete NBI's Non-Circumvention Agreement, available upon request from NBI's Contract Administrator. Upon receipt of each completed Non-Circumvention Agreement, NBI will notify Company the Company has registered the listed client as Company's prospect. Should the named organization or one of their representatives try to contact NBI, NBI will immediately direct them back to Company. NBI's Non-Circumvention Agreement is valid of a period of ninety (90) days and will be extended upon written proof by Company within said ninety (90) day period that Company is still pursuing said client.

From time to time, more than one entity may try to secure the same client's business. The Non-Circumvention Agreement does not preclude other agents, subcontractors, distributors, or other brokers of NBI from working with a prospective client listed in the Non-Circumvention Agreement. However, it does prevent the client from going to NBI to negotiate a direct contract. In the event that two entities have presented NBI's products to the same client or their representative, the client will be asked to issue a "Broker of Record" statement designating which Company has been selected.

9. Exception

NBI and Company understand and acknowledge that Company is currently engaged in providing the POWERx Medical Benefits Network to cardholders through its subsidiary, MedSmart Healthcare Network, Inc. In that regard, Company has existing contracts with Vendors listed in Schedule 3 of this agreement. The parties agree that no section of this Agreement shall apply to the Company's or MedSmart's relationship with the listed Vendors during existing contracts and any renewals of the existing contracts. Conflicts between this Agreement and Company or MedSmart's existing Vendor contracts will be settled in favor of Company and MedSmart's contracts.

10. Indemnification

NBI agrees, except as otherwise provided, to indemnify, defend and hold Company harmless from any and all loss, claims, demands, damages, suits, liabilities and any costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising from or in any way connected with (i) the failure of NBI to provide the Program in accordance with its terms; or (ii) the failure of NBI to perform its duties pursuant to this Agreement and/or observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein; or (iii) any representation by NBI which is false, misleading or containing any material misstatement of fact or omitting any material fact required to be stated to make the statements therein not misleading.

14. Waivers

The failure of any party to insist upon the prompt and punctual performance of any term or condition in this Agreement, or the failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under the terms of this Agreement on any one or more occasions shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other term, condition, right, or remedy on that or any subsequent occasion, unless otherwise expressly provided for herein.
