EXHIBIT 10(b)

EXECUTIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

THIS SERVICES AGREEMENT is entered into as of July 24, 2001 (the "Effective Date"), by and among CDEx-Inc. Corp., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), Dynamic Management Resolutions LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Provider"), and the Executives listed in Section 3, below (collectively called the "Parties").

1. Services Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to engage the Provider to perform services for the Company as set forth below.

2. Term. The term of engagement under this Agreement shall be for three years, from July 24, 2001 to July 23, 2004 (the "Engagement Period"), unless terminated earlier as provided herein. This Agreement will be automatically renewed for additional 12-month periods unless either the Provider or the Company provides advanced written notice, given at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-existing Engagement Period, of its intent not to renew. Any 12-month renewal shall be considered part of the Engagement Period.

3. Services of the Provider. Provider shall make available to the Company the following individuals who agree to provide service to the Company in accordance with this Agreement: (a) Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xx., to be the Company's President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and (b) Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx to be the Company's Vice President of Operations (both individuals are hereinafter collectively called the "Executives" or are individually called an "Executive"). The Executives shall devote their best efforts and substantial business time and attention in performing such services for the Company as are consistent with the duties and responsibilities as noted by their titles indicated above. These activities of Executives are hereinafter called the "Services".

4. Place of Performance. The Executives shall perform the Services at the locations agreed upon by the Provider and the Company. If either of the Executives is required to relocate his permanent residence because of job related duties, Company shall pay or reimburse the Provider for the moving and relocation expenses incurred by the Executive and his family.

5. Charges.

5.1. Base Fee.

5.1.1. During the Engagement Period, the Company shall pay to the Provider fees for the services of Executives (the "Base Fee"). The Base Fee shall include payment for benefits, as noted in Section 5.3, below. The Base Fee shall be paid in twelve equal monthly payments ("monthly Base Fee"). Until January 1, 2003, there will be an established monthly cash fee for each Executive. This cash fee will be all that the Company is required to pay the Executive each month in cash. At the Executive's option, this fee may be reduced further. This will assist the Company in anticipating and managing cash flow. The difference between the monthly cash fee and the monthly Base Fee may be deferred up to the end of each calendar year and received in cash or restricted common stock of the Company at the option of the Company. The value of the stock for such purposes shall be determined by the Board in its discretion based upon commercially reasonable terms unless the stock is publicly traded in which case the value shall be the average bid and ask price for the previous 30 trading days. Schedule A, attached hereto, provides the Base Fee and monthly cash fee for each Executive. The Company will be invoiced monthly for these fees.

5.1.2. The Base Fees shall be reviewed no less frequently than annually and may be increased at the discretion of the Company. Except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Provider, the Base Fees shall not be reduced from the amounts previously in effect during the Engagement Period.

5.2. Bonus. The Provider shall be eligible for an annual performance bonus based on the performance of the Company and the individuals made available by the Provider.

5.3. Benefits. Payment for benefits is included in the Base Fees of Executives set forth in Schedule A.

In addition, the Company will use its best efforts to obtain coverage for the Executives under Directors and Officers liability insurance policy, provided that such insurance policy is economically feasible.

5.4 Vacation; Holidays. The Provider shall ensure that the Executives take reasonable holidays and vacations at times that do not adversely impact the Company's work.

5.5 Equity Participation. It is recognized that the Provider's efforts associated with the Company will produce the most critical results during the first year of the Engagement Period, and that the greatest value of the Services will occur during that first year. The parties further acknowledge that the Base Fee for the Services during the Engagement Period is substantially less than the true value of the Services expected to be rendered by the Provider hereunder. Accordingly, the Company and the Provider have agreed that the Provider shall be entitled to receive a combined total of four million five hundred thousand (4,500,000) shares of restricted common stock in the Company (the "Provider Stock") as part of its compensation hereunder. The Provider Stock shall be issued in the amounts and in the names of the persons noted in Schedule A (the "Persons receiving the Provider Stock"). Further, the Provider Stock shall be subject to graduated repayment provisions, as set forth below.

The parties understand that the Provider Stock issued will be restricted in some fashion. However, the intent is to remove those restrictions as soon as legally possible and practicable. The Provider and Persons receiving the Provider Stock agree to comply strictly with all such restrictions in connection with the receipt as well as any disposition of such stock. The Persons receiving the Provider Stock shall provide and deliver to the Company all information, certifications, and other documentation as may be requested by the Company as part of the Company's compliance with any applicable laws and regulations relating to the issuance and/or registration of any of the Company's stock, including but not limited to the Provider Stock. The parties agree that the Provider Stock shall be issued at the earliest possible date that is practical, as determined by the Board after consultation with its financial advisor and legal counsel.

5.5.1. Repayment. Any Executive, as a Person receiving the Provider Stock, shall repay part of the shares of the Provider Stock received by that person (or other equivalent shares of the Company stock) if, at any time during the three years of the Engagement Period, the services of the Person in question is terminated by the Company for Cause (as that term is defined in Section 7.1.1) or that person elects to no longer provide substantial services to the Company for other than good reason (as that term is defined in Section 7.3). In either event, then within sixty (60) days afterwards, the person shall repay to the Company a portion of that person's Provider Stock in accordance with the following schedule:

(a) if within the first six (6) months after the Effective Date, the person shall repay 70% of the Provider Stock shares received;

(b) if on or after six (6) months but before the first year after the Effective Date, the person shall repay 50% of the Provider Stock received;

(c) if on or after the first year but before the second year after the Effective Date, the person shall repay 30% of the shares of the Provider Stock received; and

(d) if on or after the second year but before the third year after the Effective Date, the person shall repay 15% of the shares of the Provider Stock received.

6. Expenses. The Executives are expected and are authorized to incur expenses in the performance of the Services hereunder, including the costs of entertainment, travel, and similar business expenses incurred in the performance of the Services. The Company shall reimburse the Provider for reasonable and authorized expenses incurred by Executives promptly upon periodic presentation by the Provider of an itemized account of such expenses and appropriate receipts.

7. Termination of Services.

7.1 Termination of Services. An Executive's service for the Company during the Engagement Period will continue until the Executive's termination in accordance with this Section or termination by resignation. Upon termination, with respect to the terminated individual, this Agreement shall become null and void, except as otherwise provided in Section 14.3.

7.1.1. Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate any Executive (i.e., refuse the continuing services of any individual provided by Provider under this Agreement) or the Provider for "Cause", as defined herein below, by providing a Notice of Termination (as that term is defined hereinafter) to the Provider in accordance with Section 7.4.

For purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall be limited to any of the following:

(i) Material breach of any provision of the Agreement or Agreements referenced in Section 9 that substantially and adversely impacts the Company;

(ii) The conviction of, or a plea of nolo contendere to, a felony that materially damages the Company or its reputation;

(iii) The intentional fraud on, or willful misappropriation of, funds or property belonging to or claimed by the Company and exceeding $1000.00 in an aggregate amount;

(iv) Except in cases involving mental or physical incapacity or disability, willful misconduct or gross negligence in connection with the performance of duties that significantly and adversely impacts the Company;

(v) The chronic use of alcohol, drugs or other similar substances affecting work performance;

Notwithstanding the above, however, prior to a termination for Cause, the Company shall provide written notice (the "Notice of Breach") to the Provider of the specific reason for termination. The Notice of Breach shall specify in detail the Cause upon which the Company is basing its decision. If the Notice of Breach is based upon Subsections (i), (iv) or (v), above, the Provider shall have thirty (30) days after receipt to correct or cure, or to commence and continue to diligently pursue the correction or curing of, such Cause. The Provider shall have the opportunity to appear before the Board to discuss such written notice during such thirty (30) days. In the event that the Company determines, in its reasonable discretion, that the Executive in question, during such thirty-day period, has not corrected or cured, or has not commenced and is not diligently pursuing a cure, of the breach or breaches described in the Notice of Breach, the Company may elect to terminate the individual in question by sending the Provider a Notice of Termination.

7.2 Termination upon Disability. If the Company determines in good faith that one of the Executives has a Disability as defined in this Section 7.2, the Company may terminate that individual under this Agreement by notifying the Provider thereof at least thirty (30) days before the Date of Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" means the inability to substantially perform the Services by reason of any medically determined physical or mental impairment that is or will be a permanent condition or is a condition that will continue for at least three (3) months. If there is any dispute between the parties as to the Disability, the Company and

the Provider shall mutually select a physician to examine the individual. The determination of such physician as to the Disability shall bind the parties hereto.

7.3 Termination by the Provider. The Provider may terminate (stop making available) the services of an Executive under this Agreement at any time for Good Reason by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" means any of the following:

(i) the occurrence of a material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement that significantly and adversely impacts the individual in question;

(ii) a reduction or modification in the Services of an Executive that is inconsistent with his title or position, as reasonably determined by the Provider, and such reduction or modification significantly and adversely impacts the individual in question;

(iii) the removal of one of the Executives from the respective positions as President, CEO, and Chairman of the Board or Vice President of Operations, and the removal significantly and adversely impacts the individual in question;

(iv) the approval of a plan by the Board of Directors of the Company involving the dissolution of the Company that is not rescinded within thirty (30) days after its approval; or

(v) the involuntary or voluntary filing for bankruptcy of the Company that is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after the date of filing.

Notwithstanding the above, however, prior to the termination of the services for Good Reason under Subsections (i) or (ii) above, the Provider shall send written notice (the "Provider's Notice of Breach") to the Company of the alleged breach or action by the Company that the Provider believes constitutes Good Reason. The Provider's Notice of Breach shall specify in detail the Good Reason upon which the Provider is basing its decision to terminate. The Company shall have thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company to correct or cure, or to commence and continue to diligently pursue the correction or curing of, such Good Reason. The Provider shall have no obligation to provide a Provider's Notice of Breach to the Company in the event that the Good Reason is based on Subsection (iii), (iv) or (v) above. In the event that the Provider determines, in its reasonable discretion, that the Company, during such thirty-day period, has not corrected or cured, or has not commenced and is not diligently pursuing a cure, of the Good Reason described in the Provider's Notice of Breach, the Provider may elect to terminate the services of that Executive by sending the Company a Notice of Termination.

7.4 Notice of Termination. Any termination of an Executive by the Company or the Provider (other than because of death) shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 14.1 below. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, if any, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination.

8. Compensation Upon Termination.

8.1. Death. If an Executive is terminated during the Engagement Period as a result of death, the Company shall pay to the Provider the then current monthly Base Fee of the individual (the annual Base Fee divided by twelve) as through the third full calendar month following the Date of Termination, and all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which the Provider is entitled as of the Date of Termination, such as expenses (Section 6) and the costs of benefits (Section 5.3). In this event, there shall be no obligation to repay any of the Provider Stock upon the termination under this Section 8.1.

8.2. Disability. If an Executive is terminated during the Engagement Period because of Disability, the Company shall pay the Provider the then current monthly Base Fee of the individual (the annual Base Fee divided by twelve) through the third full calendar month following the Date of Termination, and all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which the Executive is entitled as of the Date of Termination, such as expenses (Section 6), and the costs of benefits (Section 5.3). In this event, there shall be no obligation to repay any of the Provider Stock upon the termination under this Section 8.2.

8.3. By the Company with Cause. If the Company terminates an Executive during the Engagement Period for Cause, the Company shall pay the Provider the then current monthly Base Fee of the individual (the annual Base Fee divided by twelve) through the calendar month following the Date of Termination and all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which the Provider is entitled as of the Date of Termination, such as expenses (Section 6) and the costs of benefits (Section 5.3). The payments contemplated by this Section 8.3 shall be paid at the time such payments are due. If the termination is within the three years of the Engagement Period, the terminated Person receiving Provider Shares shall be obligated to repay that portion of the Provider Stock then applicable under Section 5.5.1.

8.4 By the Company without Cause or by the Provider for Good Reason. If the Company terminates an Executive during the Engagement Period other than for Cause, Death, or Disability or the Provider stops making available (terminates) the services of an Executive during the Engagement Period for Good Reason, the Provider shall be entitled to payment in accordance with the following schedule:

Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall thereafter be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder.
