THIS EXTENSION OF CONSULTING AND SERVICE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), made this 24th day of January, 2015, by and between eWellness Healthcare Corporation, a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”), and Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx (the “Consultant”).
WHEREAS, the Company would like to extend the April 21, 2014 Consulting and Service Agreement from Twelve months to Eighteen months with the Consultant.
WHEREAS, the Consultant has certain expertise in investment and business matters which may be beneficial to the Company in the conduct of its business; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements herein contained and the consideration to be paid hereunder, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Recitals are True. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein.
2. Consulting Services. The Company agrees to retain the Consultant and the Consultant agrees to be retained by the Company on an as-needed basis from date hereof as a consultant and advisor to the Company in connection with certain investment and business matters.
3. Devotion of Time to Consulting Services. The Consultant shall devote such time to rendering consulting services as is reasonably requested from time to time by the Company. The services to be rendered by the Consultant to the Company hereunder may be rendered in person or by letter, telephone or other means of communication as shall be appropriate under the circumstances. The Consultant shall not be required to observe any fixed schedule of attendance at the principal place of business of the Company, or any other person or entity for the rendering of such services.
4. Consideration for Services: As compensation for the Consultant’s services to be performed hereunder, and for extending this Agreement the Company will issue to the Consultant and the Consultant shall accept from the Company an additional Four Hundred Thousand shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Such Common Stock shall be issued to the Consultant within thirty days of the execution of this Agreement, and upon such issuance, shall be validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable. The Company’s Common Stock is not currently publically traded, and has an illiquid market. There are substantial risks, such as: operational costs and volatility of sales prices; needs for additional capital; no operating history; dependence on third party equipment and services to operate business; economic, legal, and business conditions in the our industry; dependence on key personnel; the closely-held nature of our securities; if in future are public there is a limited public market for our common stock, and potential dilutive impact of future issuances of our Common Stock. All of these risk factors and more, considerably affect the value of the Common Stock of the Company today. In addition to the shares of Common Stock herein above, and as further compensation for the Consultant’s services to be performed hereunder, and for extending this Agreement the Company will issue to the Consultant and the Consultant shall accept from the Company an additional Four Hundred Thousand three-year callable common stock purchase warrants at a strike price of $0.35 per share (the “Common Stock Purchase Warrants”). The Common Stock Purchase Warrants are callable by the Company if the Company’s common stock trades over $1.50 per share for at least 22 consecutive trading days. Such Common Stock Purchase Warrant shall be issued to the Consultant within Thirty days of the date of this Agreement. If the Company files a registration statement under the Securities Act, the Company agrees to include all such Common Stock and Common Stock Purchase Warrants herein above in such registration statement. In addition, for extending this Agreement, the Company will pay Consultant Ten Thousand Dollars per month for Ten months, with the first Nine payments on the first of each and every month for Nine consecutive months starting February 1, 2015, and the final Tenth payment being paid on October 20, 2015.
