Agreement between Xxxxxx.xxx ("the Company") and Strategic Growth
International, Inc. ("SGI"), to provide certain financial consulting
services as follows:
DUTIES
1. SGI will meet with the Company and assist in determining a strategy
to raise additional funds through a private placement of debt, equity
or convertible debt.
2. SGI will conduct and attend meetings with the professional financial
community to discuss the feasibility and solicit interest in
assisting the Company to meet these financial goals.
COMPENSATION
The Company will pay SGI a consulting fee upon the closing of any
financing transaction resulting from an initial introduction by SGI of a
financial intermediary who raises funds for the Company. Such consulting
fees shall apply to the overall financing transaction resulting from such
introduction, regardless of the ultimate role played by the financial
intermediaries, i.e., whether the intermediaries acted alone or in
conjunction with other firm(s).
Such consulting fee shall 33% of all fees, cash charged by financial
intermediaries introduced by SGI, such as Avalon Research Group, Inc., or
investment bankers that are raising such funds.
In the event that the funds are provided directly by a financial
institution as principal, SGI shall be entitled to 8% of the gross
proceeds of any funds raised through equity, and 3% of the gross proceeds
of any funds raised through debt.
As an additional incentive, the Company shall immediately issue 100,000
warrants on its common stock to SGI. Such warrants shall be exercisable
at the closing price of the common stock on the date of the execution of
this Agreement. Such warrants shall vest and shall be immediately
exercisable if and when the Company has succeeded in raising and receiving
at least $5,000,000 resulting from all such SGI introductions pursuant to
this Agreement. The warrants will be of a five year duration from the
date of vesting, and the shares underlying such warrants will have piggy-
back registration rights for one year and demand registration rights after
one year, and will be subject to non-dilution provisions and may be
transferred in whole or in part to one or more officers of the Company.
If SGI has not made any introductions that result in a closed financing
during the term of this agreement, then the Company shall have the right
to rescind such warrants.

Company to the extent that such material is furnished, prepared or
