CONFIDENTIALITY
AND NON-COMPETITION
5.1 Maintenance of Confidential
Information. The Contractor acknowledges that in the course of
its appointment hereunder the Contractor will, either directly or indirectly,
have access to and be entrusted with information (whether oral, written or by
inspection) relating to the Company or its respective affiliates, associates or
customers (the “Confidential Information”). For the purposes of this
Agreement, “Confidential Information” includes, without limitation, any and all
Developments (as defined herein), trade secrets, inventions, innovations,
techniques, processes, formulas, drawings, designs, products, systems,
creations, improvements, documentation, data, specifications, technical reports,
customer lists, supplier lists, distributor lists, distribution channels and
methods, retailer lists, reseller lists, employee information, financial
information, sales or marketing plans, competitive analysis reports and any
other thing or information whatsoever, whether copyrightable or uncopyrightable
or patentable or unpatentable. The Contractor acknowledges that the
Confidential Information constitutes a proprietary right, which the Company is
entitled to protect. Accordingly the Contractor covenants and agrees
that during the Term and thereafter until such time as all the Confidential
Information becomes publicly known and made generally available through no
action or inaction of the Contractor, the Contractor will keep in strict
confidence the Confidential Information and shall not, without prior written
consent of the Company in each instance, disclose, use or otherwise disseminate
the Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, to any third
party.
4
5.2 Exceptions. The
general prohibition contained in Section 5.1 against the unauthorized disclosure, use
or dissemination of the Confidential Information shall not apply in respect of
any Confidential Information that:
|
(a)
|
is
available to the public generally in the form
disclosed;
|
|
(b)
|
becomes
part of the public domain through no fault of the
Contractor;
|
|
(c)
|
is
already in the lawful possession of the Contractor at the time of receipt
of the Confidential Information; or
|
|
(d)
|
is
compelled by applicable law to be disclosed, provided that the Contractor
gives the Company prompt written notice of such requirement prior to such
disclosure and provides assistance in obtaining an order protecting the
Confidential Information from public
disclosure.
|
5.3 Developments. Any
information, data, work product or any other thing or documentation whatsoever
which the Contractor, either by itself or in conjunction with any third party,
conceives, makes, develops, acquires or acquires knowledge of during the
Contractor’s appointment with the Company or which the Contractor, either by
itself or in conjunction with any third party, shall conceive, make, develop,
acquire or acquire knowledge of (collectively the “Developments”) during the
Term or at any time thereafter during which the Contractor is engaged by the
Company that is related to the business of the Company shall automatically form
part of the Confidential Information and shall become and remain the sole and
exclusive property of the Company. Accordingly, the Contractor does
hereby irrevocably, exclusively and absolutely assign, transfer and convey to
the Company in perpetuity all worldwide right, title and interest in and to any
and all Developments and other rights of whatsoever nature and kind in or
arising from or pertaining to all such Developments created or produced by the
Contractor during the course of performing this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the right to effect any registration in the world to protect the
foregoing rights. The Company shall have the sole, absolute and
unlimited right throughout the world, therefore, to protect the Developments by
patent, copyright, industrial design, trademark or otherwise and to make, have
made, use, reconstruct, repair, modify, reproduce, publish, distribute and sell
the Developments, in whole or in part, or combine the Developments with any
other matter, or not use the Developments at all, as the Company sees
fit.
5.4 Protection of
Developments. The Contractor does hereby agree that, both
before and after the termination of this Agreement, the Contractor shall perform
such further acts and execute and deliver such further instruments, writings,
documents and assurances (including, without limitation, specific assignments
and other documentation which may be required anywhere in the world to register
evidence of ownership of the rights assigned pursuant hereto) as the Company
shall reasonably require in order to give full effect to the true intent and
purpose of the assignment made under Section 5.3 hereof. If the Company is for
any reason unable, after reasonable effort, to secure execution by the
Contractor on documents needed to effect any registration or to apply for or
prosecute any right or protection relating to the Developments, the Contractor
hereby designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and
agents as the Contractor’s agent and attorney to act for and in the Contractor’s
behalf and stead to execute and file any such document and do all other lawfully
permitted acts necessary or advisable in the opinion of the Company to effect
such registration or to apply for or prosecute such right or protection, with
the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Contractor.
5.5 Remedies. The
parties to this Agreement recognize that any violation or threatened violation
by the Contractor of any of the provisions contained in this Article 5 will result in immediate and
irreparable damage to the Company and that the Company could not adequately be
compensated for such damage by monetary award alone. Accordingly, the
Contractor agrees that in the event of any such violation or threatened
violation, the Company shall, in addition to any other remedies available to the
Company at law or in equity, be entitled as a matter of right to apply to such
relief by way of restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction and to
such other relief as any court of competent jurisdiction may deem just and
proper.

this Article 5 are reasonable and
valid, and all defenses to the strict enforcement thereof by the Company are
hereby waived by the Contractor.
ARTICLE 6

Contract. During the term of this Agreement, the Contractor
shall devote sufficient time, attention, and ability to the business of the
Company, and to any associated company, as is reasonably necessary for the

that:
|
(a)
|
the
Contractor agrees and acknowledges that none of the Compensation Shares
have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or under any state
securities or "blue sky" laws of any state of the United States, and,
unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States or,
directly or indirectly, to U.S. Persons (as that term is defined in
Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933), except in accordance with
the provisions of Regulation S, pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, or pursuant to an exemption

applicable state securities laws.

the
Contractor has not acquired the Compensation Shares as a result of, and
will not itself engage in, any “directed selling efforts” (as defined in
Regulation S under the 0000 Xxx) in the United States in respect of any of
the Securities which would include any activities undertaken for the
purpose of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of,
conditioning the market in the United States for the resale of any of the

consequence, the Contractor will not be entitled to use most of the civil
remedies available under such Legislation, including statutory rights of
rescission and damages;
|
|
(d)
|
the
Exemption is premised on the basis that the undersigned does not require
the protection of the Legislation by virtue of the Contractor’s current
involvement in the Company as a “consultant”, as defined in National
Instrument 45-106 (“NI 45-106”);
|
|
(e)
|
the
Compensation Shares will be subject in the United States to a hold period
from the date of issuance of the Compensation Shares unless such
Compensation Shares are registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”);
|
|
(f)
|
the
decision to execute this Agreement and purchase the Compensation Shares
agreed to be purchased hereunder has not been based upon any oral or

directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and shareholders from and
against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever
(including, but not limited to, any and all fees, costs and expenses
whatsoever reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any claim, lawsuit, administrative proceeding or investigation
whether commenced or threatened) arising out of or based upon any
representation or warranty of the Contractor contained herein or in any
document furnished by the Contractor to the Company in connection herewith
being untrue in any material respect or any breach or failure by the
Contractor to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Contractor
to the Company in connection
therewith;

completed if it would be unlawful;

(i)
|
the
Compensation Shares are not listed on any stock exchange or subject to

subject to quotation on any other quotation system except that market
makers are currently making markets in the Company’s common stock on the
OTC Bulletin Board;
|
7
|
(j)
|
no
securities commission or similar regulatory authority has reviewed or
passed on the merits of the Compensation
Shares;
|
|
(k)
|
there
is no government or other insurance covering the Compensation
Shares;
|
|
(l)
|
there
are risks associated with an investment in the Compensation Shares,
including the risk that the Contractor could lose all of its

|
|
(m)

Contractor and the Contractor’s advisor(s) have had a reasonable
opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company in
connection with the distribution of the Compensation Shares hereunder, and
to obtain additional information, to the extent possessed or obtainable
without unreasonable effort or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy
of the information about the
Company;
|
|
(n)
|
the
books and records of the Company were available upon reasonable notice for
inspection, subject to certain confidentiality restrictions, by the
Contractor during reasonable business hours at its principal place of
business, and all documents, records and books in connection with the
distribution of the Compensation Shares hereunder have been made available
for inspection by the Contractor, the Contractor’s lawyer and/or
advisor(s);
|
|
(o)
|
the
Company will refuse to register any transfer of the Compensation Shares
not made in accordance with the provisions of Regulation S, pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or pursuant to an
available exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933
Act;
|
|
(p)
|
the
statutory and regulatory basis for the exemption claimed for the offer of
the Compensation Shares, although in technical compliance with Regulation
S, would not be available if the offering is part of a plan or scheme to
evade the registration provisions of the 1933 Act;
and
|
|
(q)
|
the
Contractor has been advised to consult the Contractor’s own legal, tax and
other advisors with respect to the merits and risks of an investment in
the Compensation Shares and with respect to applicable resale
restrictions, and it is solely responsible (and the Company is not in any
way responsible) for compliance
