(i)       there is then in effect a "Registration Statement" under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with said Registration Statement; or

- 16 -

(ii)      (A) the Consultant shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, (B) the Consultant shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of the Consultant's own counsel to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of any such Option Shares under the Securities Act and (C) such opinion of the Consultant's counsel shall have been concurred in by counsel for the Company and the Company shall have advised the Consultant of such concurrence; and

(d)       Payment for any Option Shares: it is hereby further acknowledged and agreed that, during the continuance of this Agreement, the Consultant shall be entitled to exercise any Option granted hereunder and pay for the same by way of the prior agreement of the Consultant, in the Consultant's sole and absolute discretion, and with the prior knowledge of the Company, to settle any indebtedness which may be due and owing by the Company under this Agreement in payment for the exercise price of any Option Shares acquired thereunder. In this regard, and subject to further discussion as between the Company and the Consultant, together with the prior approval of the Board of Directors and the establishment by the Company of a new Option Plan predicated upon the same, it is envisioned that, when the Company is in a position to afford the same, the Company may adopt certain additional "cashless exercise" provisions respecting the granting and exercise of incentive stock options during the continuance of this Agreement.

4.9                  Benefits. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that, during the continuance of this Agreement, the Consultant shall be provided with a monthly stipend of U.S. $1,500.00 which the Consultant may then utilize, in the Consultant's sole and absolute discretion, in order to secure and pay for such medical services and life insurance plans as the Consultant may so determine outside of the Company's current medical services and life insurance benefits programs.
