This Agreement will not take affect, and we will have no obligation to provide services, until you return a signed copy of this Agreement and remit the retainer called for in Exhibit A of this Agreement.

A FACSIMILE COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL HAVE THE SAME LEGAL EFFECT AS AN ORIGINAL OF THE SAME.

6. Compliance With Securities Laws and Form S-8 Issues

a. BCGU has offered to perform the services referred to in this Agreement for cash payment in accordance with BCGU's traditional fee structure. In this case, the Client is unable to tender a complete cash payment due to the Client's interest in preserving cash to operate its business. Client requested that the BCGU consider converting BCGU's fee into shares of the Client's stock as a substitute to cash. BCGU agreed to accept the Client's stock in accordance with the terms herein. BCGU's fee is divided amongst various specific services that BCGU has been engaged to render. Some stock that BCGU receives as Compensation may be restricted shares; and portions of the Compensation outlined herein may be common shares that are to be registered in one or more different forms of registration statements.

With respect to services that BCGU has been engaged to provide, specifically, traditional business, management, technical and operational consulting, and related public Client legal services (hereinafter these services shall collectively be referred to as "S-8 Eligible Services"), Client understands that any and all Compensation outlined in Exhibit A where Compensation is tendered to BCGU in the form of common shares of Client stock that are registered in a Form S-8 registration statement ("S8 Shares") under the Securities Act of 1933 shall be paid solely and exclusively as consideration for S-8 Eligible Services engaged in by BCGU on behalf of the Client as an independent contractor, and that receipt of:

(i) any S8 Shares, if any, shall be paid to a representative of BCGU that is a natural person; and that

(ii) any S8 Shares, if any, shall not be tendered to BCGU in order to compensate BCGU for any capital it has raised or has promised to raise for the Client; and that

(iii) any S-8 Shares, if any, shall not be tendered to BCGU for: (a) promoting or marketing of any Client securities; and (b) raising money for the Client.

c. BCGU has not been engaged to provide Client with any type of stock promotion. BCGU is not in the business of stock promotion.

7. Additional Provisions

Termination notification may be delivered via facsimile to the fax number listed herein for the Client or for BCGU.

(ii) The Client may only be relieved of an Exhibit A Compensation obligation if the Termination notification is delivered in writing by or before the commencement of a respective Period. Once a Period commences, the Client shall be obligated to tender full payment for services rendered or to be rendered for that respective Period. Any termination subsequent to the commencement of a respective Period, regardless of fault or circumstances, shall not diminish BCGU's rights to the Compensation indicated in Exhibit A for that respective Period. Once Compensation, and any portion of the same, has been tendered to BCGU, it shall be deemed earned.

(iii) If the Client falls to meet any of its obligations under this Agreement, BCGU shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, and the Client shall take all steps necessary to free the BCGU of any obligation to perform further, including, without limitation, the execution of any documents necessary to complete BCGU's discharge or withdrawal. The rights of BCGU hereunder are in addition to those created by statute or recognized by Rules of Professional Conduct.

d. Waiver. Any waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of that provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure of a Party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions will not be considered a waiver or deprive that Party of the right thereafter to insist upon adherence to that term of any other term of this Agreement.

e. Assignment. Exhibit A and Exhibit F compensation under this Agreement shall be assignable to any third party at the sole discretion of the BCGU.

f. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the balance of this Agreement shall remain in effect. If any provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances.

g. Disagreements. Any dispute or other disagreement arising from or out of this Agreement shall first be submitted to non-binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration shall occur only in the State of California, County of San Diego. The interpretation and the enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by California Law as applied to residents of the State of California relating to contracts executed in and to be performed solely within the State of California. In the event any dispute is arbitrated, the prevailing Party (as determined by the arbiter(s)) shall be entitled to recover that Party's reasonable attorney's fees incurred (as determined by the arbiter(s)).

h. Specific Performance. BCGU shall have the right to demand specific performance of the terms, and each of them, of this Agreement.

i. Execution of the Agreement. Client and the party executing this Agreement on behalf of the Client have the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as well as all transactions contemplated hereunder. All corporate proceedings have been taken and all corporate authorizations and approvals have been secured which are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by Client of this Agreement. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Client and constitutes the valid and binding obligations of Client, enforceable in accordance with the respective terms contained herein. Upon delivery of this Agreement to BCGU, this Agreement, and the other Exhibits referred to herein, will constitute the valid and binding obligations of Client and BCGU, and will be enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

j. No Warranty. Nothing in this Agreement and nothing in BCGU's statements to Client will be construed as a promise or guarantee about the outcome of Client's matter, including registration of the securities. BCGU makes no such promises or guarantees. BCGU's comments about the outcome of Client's matter are expressions of opinion(s) only.

k. Costs. The Client agrees to pay BCGU, in addition to the Compensation designated in Exhibit A herein, all costs and expenses incurred in performing services in connection with the representation described in this Agreement. Such costs and expenses may include, without limitation, international long distance telephone calls, messenger and other deliveries, postage, charges for computer research and outside assisted legal research, expenses such as parking, airfare, meals and hotel accommodations, for photocopying and other reproduction charges, clerical staff overtime, word processing charges, charges for computer time, and other similar items. All such items will be charged to the Client at the BCGU's cost. The Client agrees to pay in advance all costs incurred in connection with the representation described herein, however, as a courtesy, BCGU from time to time will advance some of these minor costs and the Client will be billed for such advances. BCGU will attempt to obtain an estimate for any major expenses prior to incurring such an expense so that BCGU may clear such major expense with the Client. BCGU shall be obligated to confer with the Client in writing (electronic or letter) prior to expending more than USD $100.00 in any one cost.

In the event it becomes necessary for the Firm to institute legal action to recover any amount due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action will be entitled to reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in such action and enforcement of any judgment.

8. Conflicts of Interest. The Parties to this Agreement acknowledge that there may be conflicts of interest in having BCGU and it's affiliates performing certain services for the Client. By and through this Agreement, Client has been advised that periodically certain conflicts of interest may arise, of which BCGU shall advise Client verbally or in writing, and that it is advisable to seek outside independent legal counsel to address any such issue which Client believes may call into question BCGU's advisory responsibilities as described herein.

8.5 Client Should Seek Outside Counsel Prior to Executing This Agreement. BCGU recommends that Client seek outside legal counsel prior to executing this Agreement. The same outside counsel should address any questions or concerns related to this Agreement and should represent the interests of the Client regarding the same. Any direct communication between Client and BCGU regarding Client's concerns related to this Agreement are in contravention of BCGU's recommendation to seek outside counsel.

9. Special Provisions for Legal Services

a. Binding Arbitration for Legal Services Disputes. The Parties hereto agree that any dispute under this Agreement for legal services rendered shall be submitted to binding arbitration by the San Diego County Bar Association pursuant to California Business and Professions Code Section 6200 et seq. or, should that organization decline to arbitrate the dispute, before the State Bar of California pursuant to California Business and Professions Code Section 6200. Subject to applicable Bar Association rules, the prevailing party in any such arbitration shall be awarded its reasonable costs and attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the dispute. For disputes for non-legal services, please see Section 7(g) of this Agreement.

b. Section 307 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002. Section 307 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 directs the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC" or the "Commission") to establish minimum standards of professional conduct for attorneys practicing before the SEC. This Agreement involves BCGU and it's affiliates engaging in efforts on behalf of the Client that involves "practicing before the SEC."

Section 307 DOES NOT mandate that an attorney reveal or disclose client confidence or secrets. However, the Section and the rules related thereto do provide that an attorney may, without the consent of the Client, reveal confidential information, to the extent reasonably necessary to (1) prevent the Client from committing a material violation likely to cause substantial financial injury to the Client and its shareholders; (2) to prevent the Client from committing an illegal act; and (3) to rectify the consequences of a material violation or illegal act in which BCGU's services have been used.

If BCGU discovers "evidence of a material violation" of a securities law, BCGU has an affirmative duty to report the violation or a potential violation to the CEO of the Client or its Chief Legal Officer ("CLO"). The term "evidence of a material violation" is defined as "credible evidence based upon which it would be unreasonable, under the circumstances, for a prudent and competent attorney not to conclude that it is reasonably likely that a material violation has occurred, is ongoing, or is about to occur."

BCGU will report such activities internally, and Client hereby agrees to conduct an internal investigation into such matters, and to take appropriate steps, including taking affirmative or negative corrective actions, in order to remedy the matter.

c. No Duty to Investigate or Supervise Consultants or Employees. BCGU has not been engaged to conduct any investigations, background checks or surveillance, of any kind, related to any consultant or employee that Client has engaged, hired, or a consultant that may be engaged or hired in the future. Specifically, with respect to Form S-8 compensation, BCGU has not been engaged to supervise any consultant or employee; nor has BCGU been asked to request work product from any Client consultant or employee.

10. Specific Power of Attorney. Client specifically grants BCGU the right to request and receive materials of any nature from a holder of those materials to the extent that the requested materials contain information related to the Client's shareholders. Client has knowledge that BCGU may use the requested materials in order to deliver to the Client's shareholders fact-based data regarding the Client. By executing this Agreement, Client approves of this specific power of attorney.

NON-DISCLOSURE and NON-CIRCUMVENTION (“NDA”)

This Exhibit D shall be incorporated by reference into the attached

Engagement Agreement ("Agreement")

executed on the 2^nd day of November, 2004,

by and between BCGU and ANUI.

This NDA is made effective and executed as of the date above by and between Business Consulting Group Unlimited (hereinafter “BCGU”) and Alpha Nutraceuticals, Inc. and any and all entities it controls or has significant business relationships with (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Client”) in an effort to (1) assure the protection and preservation of the confidential and/or proprietary nature of information disclosed or made available, or to be disclosed or made available, to each other in connection with certain discussions and/or negotiations with respect to the subject or subjects summarized and so stated below; and (2) to prevent circumvention by Client against BCGU related to a “Protected Party” (as defined below) which shall be disclosed to Client by BCGU subsequent to the execution of the Agreement.

Whereas the parties desire to assure the confidential status of the information which may be disclosed to each other;

Now, therefore, in reliance upon and in consideration of the following undertakings, the parties agree as follows:

A. Subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 2 of this NDA, all information disclosed to the other party shall be deemed "proprietary information." In particular, proprietary information shall be deemed to include any information, including but not limited to a marketing technique, publicity technique, public relations technique, process, algorithm, program, design, drawing, mask work, formula, or test data research, work in progress, future development, engineering, manufacturing, marketing, servicing, financing, or personal matter relating to the disclosing party, its present or future products, sales, suppliers, clients, customers, employees, investors, or business, whether in whole or in part, oral, written, graphic, or in an electronic form.

B. The term "proprietary information" shall not be deemed to include any information which (i) is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of receiving party, generally known or available information; (ii) is known by the receiving party at the time of receiving such information as evidenced by its records; (iii) is hereafter furnished to the receiving party by a third party, as a matter of right and without restriction on non-disclosure; (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without reference to the information disclosed hereunder; or (v) is the subject of a written permission to disclose provided by the disclosing party.

Not withstanding any other provision of this NDA, disclosure of proprietary information shall not be precluded if such disclosure:

1. Is in response to a valid order of a Court or other governmental body of the United States of America, or any other political subdivision thereof;

2. Is otherwise required by law; or

3. Is otherwise necessary to establish rights or enforce obligations under this agreement, but only to the extent that any such disclosure is necessary.

In the event that the receiving party is requested in any proceedings before a court or any governmental body to disclose proprietary information, it shall give disclosing party prompt notice of such request so that the disclosing party may seek an appropriate protective order. If in the absence of a protective order, the receiving party is nonetheless compelled to disclose proprietary information, the receiving party may disclose such information without liability hereunder; provided however, that such party gives the disclosing party advanced written notice of the information to be disclosed and upon the request and at the expense of the disclosing party, uses its best efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such information.

C. Each party shall maintain trust and confidence and not disclose to any third party or use for any unauthorized purpose any proprietary information received from the other party. Each party may use such proprietary information in the extent required to accomplish the purpose of the discussions with respect to the subject. Proprietary information shall not be used for any purpose or in any manner that would constitute a violation of a valid law or regulation, including without limitation, export control law of the United States of America or Canada. No other rights or licenses to trademarks, inventions, copyrights or patents are implied or granted under this NDA.

D. Proprietary information supplied shall not be reproduced in any form except as required to accomplish the intent of this NDA.

E. The responsibilities of the parties are limited to using their best efforts to protect the proprietary information received with the same degree of care used to protect their own proprietary information from unauthorized use or disclosure. Both parties shall advise their employees or agents who might have access to such proprietary information of the confidential nature of said proprietary information and that by receiving such information, they are agreeing to be bound by this NDA. No proprietary information shall be disclosed to any officer, employee, or agent of either party who does not have a need for such information for the purpose of the discussions which are the subject of this NDA.

F. All proprietary information (including all copies thereof) shall remain the property of the disclosing party and shall be returned to the disclosing party after the party's need for such information has expired, or upon request by the disclosing party, and in any event, upon completion or termination of this NDA. The receiving party further agrees to destroy all notes and copies thereof made by its officers and employees containing or based on any proprietary information and to cause all agents and representatives to whom or which proprietary information has been disclosed to destroy all notes and copies in their possession that contain proprietary information.

G. This NDA shall survive any termination of the discussions which are the subject of this Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect until such time as parties mutually agree to terminate it.

H. This NDA shall be governed by the laws of the United States of America, and as those laws that are applied to contracts entered into and to be performed in all states. Should any revision or part of this NDA be determined to be void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable by any Court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction, such determination shall not effect the remaining provisions of this NDA which shall remain in full force and effect.

I. This NDA contains the full and final, complete and exclusive terms of the parties relating to the subject from which this NDA was created. This NDA shall supercede any prior Agreement, whether oral or written. This NDA may not be changed and or otherwise modified or amended except with a subsequent written instrument executed by both/all parties.

J. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach by either party, including without limitations, the actual or threatened disclosure of a disclosing party's proprietary information without the prior express written consent of said party, the disclosing party will suffer irreparable damage and injury such that no remedy at law will afford adequate protection against or appropriate compensation for such injury. Accordingly, each party hereby agrees that the other party shall be entitled to specific performance of a receiving party's obligations under this Agreement. As well, further injunctive relief may be sought, and granted by a Court of competent jurisdiction.

K. Non-Circumvention. Client acknowledges that disclosure of information or circumvention in contravention of this Agreement could cause irreparable injury to the non-disclosing party for which there would not be an adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in addition to any other remedies, Recipient shall have the right to injunctive relief. During the NDA, and for a period of no less than two years after its termination, if the Client engages in any financial or other business transaction with any BCGU Protected Party, then the Client shall pay BCGU, immediately at the closing of that transaction, compensation (in cash and/or equity, at the discretion of BCGU) equal to the amount of financial benefit gained by Client. The term “BCGU Protected Party” shall mean any person or entity that either BCGU introduced to the Client in connection with the Agreement, or a third party person or entity that has a business or other affiliation with any person or entity that BCGU introduced to the Client in connection with BCGU’s services under the Agreement.

L. No Contact With Protected Party. Unless authorized by BCGU in writing, under no other circumstances, shall Client make any effort to contact a BCGU Protected Party. Any and all contact information regarding the proprietary information is being provided solely for evaluative purposes only. The evaluative nature of this information is meant solely to assist Client in deciding whether or not they wish to execute a compensatory arrangement with BCGU with respect to a potential business dealing with the BCGU Protected Party.

Notification under this paragraph must be made in writing to the Intermediary, and may be tendered via facsimile transmission at (000) 000-0000.

G. Method and Terms of Payment of Success Fees. Any Success Fee owed to Intermediary by Client shall be paid in full in cash or certified or bank check or stock (at the discretion of the Intermediary) at the closing of any Transactions ("Closing"), except where portions of the Total Value are to be determined after Closing, and then the portions of the Success Fee attributable to such subsequently determined portions of the Total Value shall be paid to Intermediary by Client in cash or certified or bank check or stock coincident with the payment of such subsequently determined portions of the Total Value. Any such portions of the Total Value determined after Closing shall be considered additive for the purposes of the Schedule of Success Fees to the portion of the Total Value determined at Closing. In the event the purchase price does not include enough cash payment to pay the Success Fees, Client shall have the option to pay the Success Fees in the form of the stock or other form of consideration Client receives in the Transaction.
