MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT -------------------- This Management Agreement ("Agreement") entered into effective January 1, 1997, by and between CAN-AM INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT CORP., a British Columbia corporation ("CAN- AM") and J&M WHOLESALE, LTD., a British Columbia corporation ("J&M"). WHEREAS, CAN-AM desires to engage J&M to manage certain of CAN-AM's operations; and WHEREAS, J&M desires to provide certain management services to CAN-AM; NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. Duties. CAN-AM agrees to retain J&M to manage certain of CAN-AM's operations. J&M shall at all times exercise its best efforts in the performance of its duties. 2. Operational Expenses; Reimbursement. J&M, may, during the term of this Agreement, finance certain of the operational expenses of CAN-AM. CAN-AM recognizes that a substantial portion of J&M's own operational expenses during the term of this Agreement may be related to CAN-AM operational expenses as a substantial portion of J&M's activities during such term may be related to managing CAN-AM's operations. CAN-AM shall reimburse J&M all of J&M's expenses which are directly incurred in the provision of services to or on behalf of CAN-AM, provided that J&M provides CAN-AM with such verification as CAN-AM shall require of the percent of J&M's operations which are related to CAN-AM. In no event shall J&M be paid any additional sum, fee or commission other than as set forth herein. The parties agree that any reimbursement due under this Agreement, may, at CAN- AM's sole discretion, be paid in cash or as a non-cash offset against any related-party receivable payable to J&M by CAN-AM. 3. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of January 1, 1997 and shall continue in effect unless otherwise terminated, as provided herein. 4. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by CAN-AM upon thirty (30) days written or oral notice to J&M. This Agreement may be terminated by J&M by delivering to CAN-AM written notice of termination, at least 60 days prior to the date of termination. Upon termination, J&M shall surrender control of all CAN-AM property and operations. 5. Nature of Relationship. Notwithstanding anything which may be contained herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge that J&M's relationship arising under this Agreement is that of an independent contractor and not that of officer, employee, agent or partner of CAN-AM. J&M shall take no action beyond the scope of the authority specifically conferred upon him by this Agreement. J&M shall not participate in any employee benefit plans, insurance arrangements or any other programs available to employee of CAN-AM which are presently in effect or may, from time to time, be established in the future, and CAN-AM shall not be obligated or authorized to make any withholding, FICA or other deductions on J&M's behalf. 6. Customer Records. J&M acknowledges that the list of CAN-AM's customers or clients as it may exist from time to time is a valuable, special and unique asset of CAN-AM's business. J&M - 1 -

shall not, during or after such period of time as this Agreement is in effect, divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone (other than in the regular course of CAN-AM's business) any names, addresses or telephone numbers of those individuals who maintain accounts at CAN-AM. In addition, the contents of customers' files, or any other such information, shall be kept confidential during and after the term of this Agreement. All original records and all copies thereof of those customers who maintain accounts at CAN-AM, including names, addresses, telephone numbers or any other such information, as well as all other secrets and confidential information of CAN-AM shall remain the property of CAN-AM during and after the term of this Agreement. The terms of this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by J&M of the provisions of this Section or Section 7 hereof, CAN-AM shall be entitled to an injunction restraining J&M from disclosing, in whole or in part, the list of CAN-AM's customers or other confidential information, or from rendering any services to any person, firm, company, association, or other entity to whom such list or other confidential information, in whole or in part, has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed. Additionally, CAN- AM shall be entitled to an injunction restraining J&M from taking any act or making any disclosure which would affect CAN-AM's status as an owner or licensee of any intellectual property rights. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting CAN-AM from pursuing any other remedies available to CAN- AM for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from J&M. 7. Confidential Information. J&M has in the past and may in the future develop, obtain or learn about confidential information which is the property of CAN-AM or which CAN-AM is under obligation not to disclose. J&M agrees to use its best efforts and the utmost diligence to guard and protect said confidential information, and J&M agrees that J&M will not, during or after the period of its performing services for CAN-AM, use for J&M or others, or divulge to others any of said confidential information which J&M may develop, obtain or learn about during or as a result of performing services for CAN-AM, unless authorized to do so by CAN-AM in writing. J&M further agrees that if this Agreement is terminated for any reason, J&M will not take, but will leave with CAN-AM or return to CAN-AM, records and papers and all matters of whatever nature which bear CAN-AM's confidential information. For the purposes of this Agreement, the terms "confidential information" shall include executable software, source code and all documents relating thereto, memoranda, notes, records, sales information, manuals, processes, technology, proprietary information, patents, designs, methods, techniques, trade secrets, systems, patterns, models, devices, compilations, lists of customers or any information of whatever nature which gives to CAN-AM an opportunity to obtain an advantage over its competitors who do not know or use it, but it is understood that said terms do not include knowledge, skills or information which is common to the trade or profession of J&M. 8. Assignability. The skills and obligations of J&M hereunder are unique and may not be substituted without the prior express written consent of CAN-AM. 9. Notices. All notices provided for by this Agreement shall be made in writing either (i) by actual delivery of the notice into the hands of the parties thereunto entitled or (ii) the mailing of the notice in the United States' mail to the address, as stated below (or at such other address as may have been designated by written notice) of the party entitled hereto, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.
