2011. This Agreement may be renewed upon mutual written agreement of the parties
hereto. This agreement may be terminated by the Company prior to its expiration

for above, the Company agrees to indemnify Greentree and its affiliates with
regard to the matters contemplated herein, as set forth in Exhibit A, attached
hereto, which is incorporated by reference as if fully set forth
herein.
5. Matters Relating to
Engagement. The Company acknowledges that Greentree has
been retained solely to provide the services set forth in this
Agreement. In rendering such services, Greentree shall act as an

The

guidance provided by Greentree or its employees to the Company should be
construed as such) and that neither Greentree nor its employees hold itself or
themselves out to be advisors as to legal, tax, accounting or regulatory matters
in any jurisdiction. Greentree may retain attorneys and accountants that are for
Greentree’s benefit, and Greentree may recommend a particular law firm or
accounting firm to be engaged by the Company and may pay the legal expenses or
non-audit accounting expenses associated with that referral on behalf of the

Greentree make such payment on its behalf. However, Greentree makes no
recommendation as to the outcome of such referrals. The Company shall consult
with its own legal, tax, accounting and other advisors concerning all matters
and advice rendered by Greentree to the Company, and the Company shall be
responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the
risks, benefits and suitability of the advice and guidance given by Greentree to
the Company. Neither Greentree nor its employees shall have any
responsibility or liability whatsoever to the Company or its affiliates with
respect thereto.
The
Company recognizes and confirms that in performing its duties pursuant to this
Agreement, Greentree will be using and relying on data, material, and other
information furnished by the Company, a third party provider, or their
respective employees and representatives (“the Information”). The Company will
cooperate with Greentree and will furnish Greentree with all Information
concerning the Company and any financial information or organizational or
transactional information which Greentree deems appropriate, and Company will
provide Greentree with access to the Company's officers, directors, employees,
independent accountants and legal counsel for the purpose of performing
Greentree's obligations pursuant to this Agreement. The Company hereby agrees
and represents that all Information furnished to Greentree pursuant to this
Agreement shall be accurate and complete in all material respects at the time
provided, and that, if the Information becomes materially inaccurate, incomplete
or misleading during the term of Greentree's engagement hereunder, the Company
shall promptly advise Greentree in writing. Accordingly, Greentree assumes no
responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the Information. In
rendering its services, Greentree will be using and relying upon the Information
without independent verification or evaluation thereof.
6. Governing Law and Consent to
Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to
conflict of laws provisions. All disputes arising out of or in connection with
this agreement, or in respect of any legal relationship associated with or
derived from this agreement, shall only be heard in any competent court residing
in Broward County Florida. Company agrees that a final judgment in any such
action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any manner provided by law. The
Company further waives any objection to venue in any such action or proceeding
on the basis of inconvenient forum. The Company agrees that any action on or
proceeding brought against the Greentree shall only be brought in such
courts.

herein.

document or instrument (including contracts, xxxxx, agreements, records and wire
receipts, etc.) to which it is a party or bound.
9. Miscellaneous. This
Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the Company
and Greentree with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
understandings or agreements between the parties with respect thereto, whether
oral or written, express or implied. Any amendments or modifications
must be executed in writing by both parties. This Agreement and all
rights, liabilities and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of each party’s successors but may not be assigned without the prior
written approval of the other party. If any provision of this
Agreement shall be held or made invalid by a statute, rule, regulation, decision
of a tribunal or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be
affected thereby and, to this extent, the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed to be severable. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which, shall be deemed to be an original, but such
counterparts shall, together, constitute only one instrument. The
descriptive headings of the Paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not
affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

EXHIBIT A:
INDEMNIFICATION
The
Company agrees to indemnify Greentree, its employees, directors, officers,
agents, affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls it within the meaning
of either Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 15 of the
Securities Act of 1933 (each such person, including Greentree is referred to as
"Indemnified Party") from and against any losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, joint or several (including all legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with the preparation for or
defense of any threatened or pending claim, action or proceeding, whether or not
resulting in any liability) ("Damages"), to which such Indemnified Party, in
connection with providing its services or arising out of its engagement
hereunder, may become subject under any applicable Federal or state law or
otherwise, including but not limited to liability or loss (i) caused by or
arising out of an untrue statement or an alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order
to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it
was made, (ii) caused by or arising out of any act or failure to act, or (iii)
arising out of Greentree's engagement or the rendering by any Indemnified Party
of its services under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company will
not be liable to the Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that any Damages
are found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder.
These
indemnification provisions shall be in addition to any liability which the
Company may otherwise have to any Indemnified Party.
If for
any reason, other than a final non-appealable judgment finding an Indemnified
Party liable for Damages for its gross negligence or willful misconduct the
foregoing indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to
hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of such Damages in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
received by the Company and its shareholders on the one hand and the Indemnified
Party on the other, but also the relative fault of the Company and the
Indemnified Party as well as any relevant equitable considerations.
Promptly after receipt by
the Indemnified Party of notice of any claim or of the commencement of any
action in respect of which indemnity may be sought, the Indemnified Party will
notify the Company in writing of the receipt or commencement thereof and the
Company shall have the right to assume the defense of such claim or action
(including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party and the payment of fees and expenses of such counsel), provided that the
Indemnified Party shall have the right to control its defense if, in the opinion
of its counsel, the Indemnified Party's defense is unique or separate to it as
the case may be, as opposed to a defense pertaining to the
Company. In any event, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, at the Company's sole
expense, to represent it in any claim or action in respect of which indemnity
may be sought and agrees to cooperate with the Company and the Company's counsel
in the defense of such claim or action. In the event that the Company
does not promptly assume the defense of a claim or action, the Indemnified Party
shall have the right to employ counsel to defend such claim or action. Any
obligation pursuant to this Annex shall survive the termination or expiration of
the Agreement
