For certainty, any Ad hoc Accounting and Tax Advisory Services / Projects must be specifically requested/pre-approved by the Company.

 

Non-Assurance

 

We will be providing services as consultants, and not as the Company's auditor, and as such the procedures we will be performing under this engagement will not constitute an examination, review, or audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or attestation standards.

 

Key Assumptions

 

Our work can be completed timely, and in the most cost-efficient manner, provided that your staff is available to answer our questions and provide requested documents during the course of work.

 

The Company's Responsibilities

 

The Company shall provide Invictus with all information relevant to the Services and any reasonable assistance as may be required to properly perform the Services. The Company represents and warrants to Invictus that all such information will be accurate and complete in all material respects. The overall definition and scope of the work to be performed, and its adequacy in addressing the Company's needs, is the Company's responsibility. The Company shall perform all management functions and make all management decisions in connection with the Services, and shall assign competent individuals to oversee the Services. The Company is also responsible for the implementation of actions identified in the course of this engagement as well as the results achieved from using any output from the Services and Deliverables (as defined below).

 b)we will hold all personal information in compliance with applicable privacy legislation.

Pursuant to CPABC practice license (and insurance) requirements, copies of Deliverables and all documents related to the preparation of the Deliverables (including working papers, materials, correspondence, reports, files and work created, developed or performed by Invictus during the course of the engagement) constitute confidential information and may be retained by us in accordance with our standard terms and conditions and our Firm's policies and procedures.

The Province of British Columbia will have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any claim, dispute or difference concerning this engagement letter and any matter arising from it. Each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to object to any action being brought in those courts to claim that the action has been brought in an inappropriate forum or to claim that those courts do not have jurisdiction.

 

Dispute Resolution
 

You agree that:

 

a)any dispute that may arise regarding the meaning, performance or enforcement of this engagement will, prior to resorting to litigation, be submitted to mediation; and

 

b)you will engage in the mediation process in good faith once a written request to mediate has been given by any party to the engagement.

Communication

 

In connection with this engagement, we may communicate with you or others via telephone, facsimile, post, courier and e-mail transmission. As all communications can be intercepted or otherwise used or communicated by an unintended third party, or may not be delivered to each of the parties to whom they are directed and only to such parties, we cannot guarantee or warrant that communications from us will be properly delivered only to the addressee. Therefore, we specifically disclaim and waive any liability or responsibility whatsoever for interception or unintentional disclosure of communications transmitted by us in connection with the performance of this engagement. In that regard, you agree that we shall have no liability for any loss or damage to any person or entity resulting from: communications, including any consequential, incidental, direct or indirect; special damages, such as loss of revenues or anticipated profits; or disclosure or communication of confidential or proprietary information.

 

Non-solicitation and Non-inducement

 

The Company agrees not to solicit nor induce the employment of any employee or contractor of Invictus (the "Recruited Invictus Staff") without prior approval from Invictus. In the event the Company breaches this non-solicitation/non-inducement clause, the Company agrees to promptly pay Invictus a recruitment fee equal to 35% of the estimated first year annualized total compensation (salary and target bonus and/or consulting fee, as applicable) of the Recruited Invictus Staff. For certainty, this clause is not intended to be punitive nor impede employment opportunities, rather provide reasonable compensation to Invictus for potential re-staffing, recruitment, and training costs, as applicable.

 

Our Team

 

We are pleased to provide the services of Oliver Foeste, Managing Partner at Invictus, to provide CFO services (including named CFO, when applicable) and overall client service. Other staff may be assigned to the engagement as required to ensure the timelines required by the Company are met.

 

Our Guarantee

 

We guarantee our performance and people fit. If there are any problems with any staff we will adjust our staffing to meet your needs.

 

Timetable

 

Invictus shall begin work immediately, noting that the Services may begin gradually over a period of time, as advised by the CEO, and the named CFO role will transition to Oliver Foeste at a time the parties reasonably agree is acceptable for both of them.

 

Fees

 

Our fee estimate for the ongoing CFO, Financial Reporting, and Bookkeeping Services is $4,000 to $7,500 per month with the higher range expected during quarterly and annual financial reporting periods. This fee range will be refined during the first six months of the engagement as run-rates are determined. As applicable, additional fees may arise for the following:

 

·There may be a one-time "kick-off / clean-up" fee, while transitioning from a predecessor accounting firm / accountant, to address potential issues in historic workings, and potential improvements and/or catch-up work required to the Company's accounting systems and processes where deficiencies may exist.

 

·Special project fees may arise for merger and acquisition activities, or highly frequent / complicated financing transactions. We will advise and request approval (via email from a Company executive/director) for any special project fees prior to incurring the work.

 

 

 

 Page 4 of 10 

 

 

Our fees, subject to inflation, will be based on a time and materials basis, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties. Our hourly rate for the professionals performing the work (noting other titles may exist) will be in the ranges below, depending on the complexity of work conducted:

 

Partners, Principals and Specialists $225 to $400
Directors and Managers $135 to $225
Associates $ 90 to $135
Accounting Technicians / Bookkeepers $ 65 to $ 90

 

 

Fees are dependent upon access to information, complexity, and breadth of work required by the Company. If complexities arise, we will discuss with you prior to incurring any extra time.

 

We will bill for our services on a monthly basis. Payment is due upon invoice receipt. In the event other executive members of the Company are paid in the month of service, Invictus shall also then invoice and be paid in the month of service.

 

In addition to the fees outlined above, we shall bill for all reasonable expenses. Direct costs, including but not limited to travel, meals and accommodation will be charged as incurred. An administration fee of 2.5% of total fees will be charged to cover overhead expenses in connection with our engagement.
