| I. | Services Provided |
The Director agrees, subject to the Director’s continued status as a director, to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and to provide those services required of a director under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as both may be amended from time to time (“Articles and Bylaws”) and under the Florida General Corporation Law, the federal securities laws and other state and federal laws and regulations, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Company’s securities may be traded from time to time. Director will also serve on such one or more committees of the Board as he or she and the Board shall mutually agree.
| II. | Nature of Relationship |
The Director is an independent contractor and will not be deemed as an employee of the Company for any purposes by virtue of this Agreement. The Director shall be solely responsible for the payment or withholding of all federal, state, or local income taxes, social security taxes, unemployment taxes, and any and all other taxes relating to the compensation he or she earns under this Agreement. The Director shall not, in his or her capacity as a director of the Company, enter into any agreement or incur any obligations on the Company’s behalf, without appropriate Board action.
The Company will supply, at no cost to the Director: periodic briefings on the business, director packages for each board and committee meeting, copies of minutes of meetings and any other materials that are required under the Company’s Articles and Bylaws or the charter of any committee of the Board on which the Director serves and any other materials which may, by mutual agreement, be necessary for performing the services requested under this Agreement.
| III. | Director’s Representations and Warranties |
The Director represents and warrants that no other party has exclusive rights to services in the specific areas in which the Company is conducting business and that the Director is in no way compromising any rights or trust between any other party and the Director or creating a conflict of interest as a result of his or her participation on the Board. The Director also represents, warrants and covenants that so long as the Director serves on the Board, the Director will not enter into another agreement that will create a conflict of interest with this Agreement or the Company. The Director further represents, warrants and covenants that he or she will comply with the Company’s Articles, Bylaws, policies and guidelines, all applicable laws and regulations in all material respects.
Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Director agrees he or she will not, without obtaining the Company’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly engage or prepare to engage in any activity in competition with the Company’s business, products or services, including without limitation, products or services in the development stage, accept employment or provide services to (including but not limited to service as a member of a board of directors), or establish a business in competition with the Company; provided, however, that the Director may serve or continue to serve as an officer or director of one or more entities that are affiliated with the Company, including without limitation, entities in which the Company does not have a majority holding.

This fee may be revised by action of the Board from time to time. Such revision shall be effective as of the date specified in the resolution for payments not yet earned and need not be documented by an amendment to this Agreement to be effective. Any payments due to Director may be accrued and exchanged for Preferred Series A Shares of the Company (“Preferred Series A Shares”) with the same aggregate stated value. The share exchange will for services will be conducted at the end of each fiscal year.

Such revision shall be effective as of the date specified in the resolution and need not be documented by an amendment to this Agreement to be effective.

The Director shall receive $150,000 of Preferred Series A Shares upon execution of this agreement. No invoices need be submitted by the Director for payment of the cash fee. Invoices for additional payments under subparagraph B of this Section IV above shall be submitted by the Director.

Such payments may be accrued and exchanged for Preferred Series A Shares with the same aggregate stated value.
