or
" Master Agreement") is

on
the one hand,
and
Jeffrey
T.
Hall
("
Attorney")
on
the other. This Attorney-Client Agreement is effective
August
1,
2009.
Purpose
of
Attorney-Client Agreement. Client retains Attorney
and

corporate litigation matters
and
for various transactional
and

an
initial term of one
month
(the

and

a month-to-month basis thereafter.
For each litigation matter, Attorney
and
Client
may
enter into a separate
representation agreement
with
Client
or
entity
that
Client has
an
interest
in
(a
"Specific Matter Agreement")
that
may
set forth the hourly rate of Attorney for
purposes
of determining
and
potentially recouping necessary
and
reasonable
attorneys' fees
in
any
given litigation. Notwithstanding the terms set forth
in
those
Specific Matter Agreements, this Master Agreement governs the entire relationship
between
Client
and

and
the terms of the Master Agreement, including

and

hearings
and
trials for Client. Attorney will handle litigation matters
directly as counsel of record
and
will oversee,
manage
and
direct other matters
with
outside
and
local counsel
when
Client is represented
by
outside counsel and/or
litigation is
in
a foreign state. Attorney will also
be
responsible for various general
transactional legal matters such as contract drafting
and
consulting.
During
the
course of work, Attorney will obtain a large
amount
of confidential information
and
agrees that,
during
the term of this Agreement
or
any time thereafter, Attorney will
not
represent any
party
that is
or
becomes adverse to Client. Attorney shall provide
work
product, regardless of stage of completion, to the Client
or
Client's designee(s)
as requested
and
shall further communicate the status of the various matters within
Attorney's responsibility as requested.
