CONSULTING AGREEMENT
Exhibit
10.1
This
Consulting Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Xxxxxxxx
Uranium, Inc. (“XXXXXXXX”), and Xxxx Xxxxx,
having a place of business as set forth below (“Contractor”). This
Agreement is effective as of May 23, 2008 (the “Effective Date”).
Whereas
XXXXXXXX and Contractor desire to create a consulting relationship in connection
with certain services to be provided by Contractor to XXXXXXXX, as described
below, the parties agree as follows:
1. Work and
Compensation. Contractor agrees to perform the work set forth
in Exhibit
A (“Statement of
Work”) and to provide any work product resulting therefrom to
XXXXXXXX. Contractor will be paid compensation in the amount and at
the times set forth in Exhibit
B, subject to timely submission of any deliverables in accordance with
the schedule in the applicable Statement of Work. Unless other terms
are set forth in Exhibit B, XXXXXXXX
will pay Contractor for services within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt
of Contractor’s detailed invoice. Contractor will provide XXXXXXXX
with reasonable documentation and work description in connection with
Contractor’s invoices, as requested by XXXXXXXX.
2. Term.
2.1 Completion of Services. This
Agreement will become effective on the Effective Date and will continue in
effect until completion of the Statement of Work as set forth in Exhibit A or any
subsequent Statements of Work as set forth in Section 2.2, unless terminated
earlier as set forth in Section 7.1.
2.2 Subsequent Statements of
Work. Contractor and XXXXXXXX may from time to time execute
subsequent Statements of Work in the form of Exhibit
D, each of which will be deemed to be part of this Agreement upon the
earlier of (a) the date of mutual execution of the subsequent Statement of Work
or (b) the date when Contractor commences any work described on a subsequent
Statement of Work that has been duly executed by XXXXXXXX. To the
extent any terms set forth on any subsequent Statement of Work conflict with the
terms of this Agreement, the terms on the Statement of Work will prevail, but
only with respect to the subject work described therein.
3. Responsibilities. Contractor
will perform and promptly complete the Statement of Work set forth in Exhibit A in a
professional and timely manner consistent with industry standards at a location,
place and time that Contractor deems appropriate. Contractor, in its
sole discretion, will determine the manner, method, details and means of
performing work under a Statement of Work. Except as otherwise
indicated on Exhibit B attached hereto, Contractor will provide its own
equipment, tools, and other materials at its own expense in performing work
under the Statement of Work.
3.1 Acceptance or Rejection of
Work. Although much of the work that the Contractor will
perform, will include providing security and management services
and information to subcontractors, drilling staff, potential
strategic partners and liaison work with various geological and extraction firms
employed by XXXXXXXX, it is also possible that Contractor’s work will be
submitted to XXXXXXXX in written form. In such a case, upon
Contractor’s submission of the work product, XXXXXXXX will, in its sole
discretion, accept or reject all or part of the work product or return it to
Contractor with suggested changes. Contractor acknowledges that if
the unaccepted portion of the work product contains any Confidential Information
or XXXXXXXX Materials, then XXXXXXXX will retain sole and exclusive ownership of
such property, and Contractor will either return the unaccepted work product to
XXXXXXXX or provide XXXXXXXX with satisfactory evidence that the unaccepted work
product has been destroyed.
3.2 Quality
Work. Contractor will perform the work at a quality level,
consistent with work performed by professional management at Contractor’s level
and compensation.
4. Ownership
of Property.
4.1 Works Assigned to
XXXXXXXX. Contractor will promptly make full disclosure to
XXXXXXXX, will provide and deliver to XXXXXXXX, will hold in trust for the sole
right and benefit of XXXXXXXX, and will assign, and does hereby assign, to
XXXXXXXX all Contractor’s right, title and interest in and to any and all
inventions, original works of authorship, developments, designs, improvements,
trade secrets and other work product related to any Statements of Work,
including tangible embodiments thereof, which Contractor may solely or jointly
conceive, develop, make or reduce to practice, at any time during the term of
this Agreement, together with all patent, copyright, trademark and other rights,
including tangible embodiments thereof, that Contractor has or may acquire in
all countries arising in performance of any Statement of Work (collectively, the
“Works”).
1
XXXXXXXX Consulting Agreement
4.2 Intellectual Property Rights
Registration. Although the nature of the services Contractor will be
performing are not generally of the sort that product intellectual property
rights, it is conceivable that the services rendered by Contractor will produce
innovations within the field of mineral extraction, including processes, methods
of extraction and terminology and brand names associated with these processes
and methods, which could also include software designs or algorithms which
improve the efficiency of mineral extraction. Some of these processes
or methods may be patentable or otherwise
protectable. Contractor agrees to assist XXXXXXXX in every
lawful way to obtain, prepare and prosecute applications for letters patent,
trademark, mask work and copyright registrations covering the Works assigned
hereunder to XXXXXXXX, in order to perfect XXXXXXXX’x title to the Works, and to
protect and enforce XXXXXXXX’x rights in the Works in the U.S. or foreign
countries, including promptly executing additional separate assignment(s) for
any of the Works, whenever requested by XXXXXXXX. Such obligations
will continue beyond the completion of the Statement of Work and beyond the
termination of this Agreement, but XXXXXXXX will compensate Contractor at a
reasonable rate for time actually spent by Contractor at XXXXXXXX’x request on
such assistance after such termination. If XXXXXXXX is unable for any
reason to secure Contractor’s signature to apply for or to pursue any
application for any U.S. or foreign letters patent, trademark, mask work or
copyright registrations covering Work assigned to XXXXXXXX, then Contractor
hereby irrevocably designates and appoints XXXXXXXX and its duly authorized
officers and agents as Contractor’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and
in Contractor’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such application and to
do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of
letters patent, trademark, copyright or mask work registrations with the same
legal force and effect as if executed by Contractor.
4.3 Other Rights. If
Contractor has any rights to any Works that cannot be assigned to XXXXXXXX,
Contractor unconditionally and irrevocably waives the enforcement of such
rights, and all claims and causes of action of any kind against XXXXXXXX with
respect to such rights, and agrees, at XXXXXXXX’x request and expense, to
consent to and join in any action to enforce such rights. If
Contractor has any right to any Works that cannot be assigned to XXXXXXXX or
waived by Contractor, Contractor unconditionally grants to XXXXXXXX during the
term of such rights, an exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, fully paid
and royalty-free license, with rights to sublicense through multiple levels of
sublicensees, to reproduce, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly
perform and publicly display by all means now known or later developed, such
rights and tangible embodiments thereof.
4.4 Exceptions to
Assignments. Contractor understands that the provisions of
this Agreement requiring assignment to XXXXXXXX do not apply to any invention as
to which Contractor can prove the following: (a) no equipment,
supplies, facility or trade secret of XXXXXXXX was used in its development and
(b) it does not relate to the Statement of Work or to XXXXXXXX’x actual or
demonstrably anticipated research and development, and does not result from any
work performed by Contractor for XXXXXXXX. Contractor will advise
XXXXXXXX promptly in writing of the existence and general nature of (but not any
confidential subject matter of) any inventions that Contractor believes meet the
criteria in this Section 4.4, and if so requested, the subject matter of the
invention and all evidence necessary to substantiate such belief.
5. Representations
and Warranties. Contractor hereby represents and warrants with
respect to each Work and to the services Contractor provides hereunder that
Contractor is a qualified, trained geologist, skilled in the type of services
provided under this Agreement. Any Works or other reports produced
under this Agreement are prepared in a manner consistent with industry best
practices throughout the field of mineral extraction. XXXXXXXX relies
on, and Contractor represents that XXXXXXXX can rely on Contractor’s expertise
in the field of Geology generally and mineral extraction in
particular. It is the understanding of XXXXXXXX that Contractor will
personally perform the services required under this
Agreement. However, If Contractor uses third parties to create any
products or to perform any services related to the Work, then Contractor
represents and warrants that Contractor has (I) obtained all of the necessary
rights to the Work from all such third parties to the same extent as warranted
above and (II) caused such third parties to enter into confidentiality
agreements that contain the same language as contained in this Agreement with
respect to protecting XXXXXXXX’x Confidential Information.
6. Indemnification.
Contractor will indemnify and hold harmless XXXXXXXX, its parents, stockholders,
officers, directors, employees, sub-licensees, customers and agents
(collectively the “Indemnified
Parties”) from any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, expenses
and costs (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) that result from a breach
of any representation or warranty of Contractor (a “Claim”) set forth in Section 5
of this Agreement.
7.
Termination.
7.1 Termination. This
Agreement may be terminated by XXXXXXXX with or without cause, effective upon
delivery of written notice. Contractor may terminate this Agreement
for any reason on seven (7) days’ written notice to XXXXXXXX or such longer
period as may be specified in the attached exhibits. In the event
that Contractor gives notice of termination during the performance of the
Statement of Work, the terms of the Agreement will govern completion, acceptance
and payment by XXXXXXXX for any work product.

7.2 Return of
Materials. Following any notice of termination of this
Agreement given pursuant to Section 7.1 or upon expiration of the term of this
Agreement, Contractor will fully cooperate with XXXXXXXX in all matters relating

orderly transfer of any work or documents to

Contractor’s engagement with XXXXXXXX and at any other time XXXXXXXX requests,
Contractor will deliver to XXXXXXXX any and all devices, materials, software,
records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications,
drawings, blueprints, sketches, equipment, other documents or property, or
reproductions of any aforementioned items (in whole or in part) belonging to

without the written authorization of an authorized XXXXXXXX
officer.

Contractor’s receipt of such information.
8.2 Promise Not to
Disclose. Contractor agrees, at all times during the term of
this Agreement and thereafter, to hold in strictest confidence, and not to use
or disclose to any person, firm or corporation without written authorization of
an authorized officer of XXXXXXXX, any Confidential Information, except such use
and disclosure as is necessary in carrying out Contractor’s work for XXXXXXXX
and authorized in writing by XXXXXXXX. Contractor does not hereby
receive any implied or granted rights or licenses to trademarks, inventions,
copyrights or patents of XXXXXXXX or any third parties. All
Confidential Information (including all copies thereof) will at all times remain
the property of XXXXXXXX and will be returned to XXXXXXXX after the Contractor’s
need for it has expired, or upon request by XXXXXXXX.
8.3 Former and Current Client

during Contractor’s engagement with XXXXXXXX, improperly use or disclose any
proprietary information or trade secrets of third parties, such as Contractor’s
other employers, clients or companies through which Contractor has access to

Information. Contractor recognizes that XXXXXXXX may have
received and in the future may receive from third parties their confidential or
proprietary information subject to certain duties on XXXXXXXX’x part to maintain

third parties, during the term of Contractor’s engagement and thereafter,
whatever duty exists between XXXXXXXX and such third parties to hold all such

10. Conflicting
Work. Contractor agrees that, during the term of this

business activity that would create a conflict of interest with Contractor’s
obligations to XXXXXXXX under this Agreement with XXXXXXXX.
11. Independent
Contractor Relationship. CONTRACTOR’s relationship with
XXXXXXXX will be that of an independent contractor and nothing in this Agreement
should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee

XXXXXXXX. If Contractor is an individual, then he or she will not be
entitled to any of the benefits which XXXXXXXX may make available to its
employees, including, but not limited to, group insurance, stock option plans,
profit-sharing or retirement benefits. If applicable, XXXXXXXX will
regularly report amounts paid to Contractor by filing Form 1099-MISC with the
Internal Revenue Service, as required by law. Because Contractor is
an independent contractor, XXXXXXXX will not withhold or make payments for
social security, make unemployment insurance or disability insurance
contributions, or obtain worker’s compensation insurance on Contractor’s
behalf. Contractor will be solely responsible for, and agrees to
accept exclusive liability for, complying with all applicable foreign, federal
and state laws governing self-employed individuals, including obligations such
as payment of taxes, social security, disability and other contributions based
on fees paid to Contractor or its agents under this
Agreement. Contractor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Indemnified Parties against any and all such taxes or contributions,
including penalties and interest.
12. Governing
Law. This Agreement will be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada as applied to transactions
taking place wholly within Nevada between Nevada residents. In the
event of a dispute, the parties agree to mediate in good faith before a neutral
third party agreeable to both parties prior to instituting any legal action
other than injunctive relief, such mediation to take place in the Xxxxx County,
Nevada. Contractor hereby expressly consents to the exclusive
personal and subject-matter jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located
in the Xxxxx County, Nevada, for any dispute arising from or related to this
Agreement.
13. Survival. Any respective
obligations of Contractor or XXXXXXXX hereunder which by their nature would
continue beyond the termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement
will survive such termination, cancellation or expiration, including but not
limited to the obligations set forth in the following
provisions: Section 4, Section 5, Section 6,
Section 7, Section 8, Section 11, Section 12,
Section 13, Section 14, Section 16 and
Section 18.
14. Entire
Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement together with any
subsequent Statements of Work hereunder constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties regarding the services rendered by Contractor to XXXXXXXX, and this
Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, commitments,
representations, writings, and discussions between XXXXXXXX and Contractor,
whether oral or written. This Agreement may be amended only by a
writing executed by Contractor and an authorized officer of
XXXXXXXX. Contractor expressly acknowledges that Contractor has read
the terms of this Agreement, has had the opportunity to discuss those terms with
his or her own legal counsel, and understands that this is a legally binding
contract.
15. Notices. Any
notice, request, demand or other communication hereunder will be in writing and
will be deemed to be duly given (a) upon actual receipt when personally
delivered to an officer of XXXXXXXX or to Contractor, as the case may be, (b)
three days after deposit in the U.S. Mail by certified or registered mail,
return receipt requested with postage prepaid, or (c) upon actual receipt or two

16. Interpretation;
Severability. Section and other headings contained in this
Agreement are for reference only and will not affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement
is considered unclear or ambiguous, it will not be construed against the party
that drafted the provision, but instead will be construed to effectuate the
intent of both parties as expressed in this Agreement.
Should any valid federal or state law or final determination of any
administrative agency or court of competent jurisdiction invalidate or otherwise
affect any provision of this Agreement, any provision so affected will be
conformed automatically and to the extent possible to the law or determination
in question and enforced insofar as possible consistent with the intent of the
parties, and in all events the remaining provisions of this Agreement will
continue in full force and effect.
17. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be
deemed to be an original.
18. Attorneys’
Fees. If an action is brought to interpret or enforce the terms of this
Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover from the
non-prevailing party, in addition to all other remedies at law and equity, all
costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party with respect to such action,
including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, costs and
disbursements.
