1.

Term. This Agreement is effective beginning November 1, 2009 (“Term”) and shall remain in effect until December 31, 2010, or until terminated by either party. Notice of termination may be served by providing thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other party, at the address stated in this contract.

 

 

 

 

2.

Services. During the Term, Consultant shall provide management services, including assisting in development of strategic alliances, positioning the company’s products within the market, and guiding the Company to achieving its annual goals.

 

 

 

 

3.

Fees for Services. The Company shall pay Consultant a monthly fee of $2,000.00. Consultant shall submit an invoice monthly and the Company agrees to remit payment within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice.

 

 

 

 

4.

Independent Contractor. Consultant acknowledges that it is an independent contractor in carrying out its duties under this Agreement and Consultant shall in no way be an agent or representative of the Company. Consultant shall be solely responsible for all taxes, withholdings, and any other statutory obligations pertaining to its employees and representatives.

 

 

 

 

5.

Limitation on Authority. Consultant has no authority to enter into any contract or incur any liability on behalf of the Company.

 

 

 

 

6.

Standard of Performance. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Consultant shall, and shall cause its employees, contractors and representatives to, at all times perform in a professional, ethical and competent manner and exercise the same duty of care as it would exercise in the conduct of its own affairs in similar contexts.

 

 

 

 

7.

Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. Except as permitted or directed by the Company in writing, Consultant shall not during the Term of this Agreement or at anytime thereafter, divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone or use in any way (other than in the ordinary course of providing Services under this Agreement) any Confidential Information (as defined herein) which Consultant has acquired or will acquire prior to or during the Term of this Agreement. The Consultant agrees and acknowledges that “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all information not in the public domain, in any




 

 

 

 

 

form, emanating from or relating to the Company and its members, including, but not limited to, trade secrets, technical information, costs, designs, drawings, processes, systems, methods of operation and procedures, price lists, financial data, code books, invoices and other financial statements, computer programs, discs, printouts, plans, customer lists, telephone numbers, names, addresses, or any other written or unwritten information that is used in the business of the Company. The Consultant acknowledges that the Confidential Information constitutes a unique and valuable asset acquired at great time and expense, and that any disclosure or use of any Confidential Information, other than in rendering Services under this Agreement would cause great irreparable harm to the Company. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section, Consultant agrees that monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy at law, and both preliminary and permanent equitable injunctive relief is necessary and shall be available to protect the rights of the Company.
