 11.3.1  No claim for indemnification shall be made against the Sellers unless the aggregate amount of Purchaser Damages exceeds $5,000 and, in such event, indemnification shall be made by the Sellers only to the extent that the aggregate amount of Purchaser Damages exceeds $5,000.
 
 11.3.2  The amount of any Purchaser Damages or Seller Damages, as the case may be, shall be reduced by (a) any amount actually received by the Indemnified Parties with respect thereto under any insurance coverage or from any other party responsible therefore; and (b) the amount of any Tax benefit actually received by the Indemnified Parties relating thereto.

20

 
 
 11.4.1  Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice by a third party of any complaint or the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to receive payment from the other party for Damages, such Indemnified Party shall, within ten (10) days, notify the Sellers, the Purchaser as the appropriate Indemnifying Party, of such complaint or of the commencement of such action or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability under this Agreement with respect to such claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Party results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of material rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. In addition, the Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable thereafter such information and documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party to support and verify the claim asserted, so long as such disclosure would not violate the attorney-client privilege of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party within thirty (30) days after notice of any such Claim fails to assume the defense of such Claim, the Indemnified Parties will (upon further notice to the Indemnifying Party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk, and at the expense, of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that as long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting any claim in good faith, the Indemnified Parties shall not pay or settle any such claim.
 
 11.4.2  Anything in this Section 11.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement or compromise of any action, suit or proceeding or consent to the entry of any judgment (a) which does not include as an unconditional term hereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Parties of a written release from all liability in respect of such action, suit or proceeding; or (b) for other than monetary damages without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 
11.5        SURVIVAL; TIME TO ASSERT CLAIMS.
 
 11.5.1  The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, except for covenants and agreements to be performed by the Parties prior to the Closing, will not be extinguished by the Closing but will survive the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.5.2 below with respect to the time periods within which claims for indemnity must be asserted. The covenants and agreements to be performed by the parties prior to the Closing shall expire at the Closing.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT made as of the 14th day of June, 2010, by and between Chanwest Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company"), having a principal place of business located at 8411 Sterling Street, Ste 102, Irving Texas 75063, and David Killian ("Employee"), having an address at PO Box  1001. Atlanta, Texas 75063.

This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions upon which Employee agrees to be employed by the Company and not to subsequently compete with the Company in connection with the Company’s business.

In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
TERM

1.1.         Term.  The Company hereby agrees to employ Employee and Employee agrees to become employed by the Company, subject to the immediate supervision and direction of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, or such other supervisor or supervisors as shall be designated by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company from time to time, for a period commencing on the date hereof and expiring three years thereafter, unless this Agreement is sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions hereof.

ARTICLE II
RESPONSIBILITIES

2.1. Attention to Business; Duties.

Employee agrees to devote 100% of his business time, attention, skill, and efforts to the performance of his duties and responsibilities on behalf of the Company which shall be assigned to him from time to time as the Vice President of Oil Field Development by the Company and which shall generally include the utilization of  Trachoe, trucking and dozer work in oilfield construction

ARTICLE III
COMPENSATION

3.1.         Compensation.  For all services to be rendered by him in any capacity hereunder, the Company agrees to provide Employee the following compensation so long as he shall be employed by the Company:

 
(i)
Employee shall be entitled to a fixed annual base salary at the rate of One Hundred Twenty Thousand Dollars per annum, payable in equal bi-weekly installments.

 
 

 

 
 
(ii)
Employee shall be a participant in, and beneficiary of, any and all life, dental, medical, and other group benefit plans provided by the Company for eligible employees during the term of this Agreement.

 
(iii)
Employee shall be entitled to a vacation of two weeks per year, during which time his compensation will be paid in full.  Employee shall not take more than two consecutive weeks of vacation without the approval of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

ARTICLE IV
COMPETITION WITH THE COMPANY

4.1.        Covenant of Employee.  Employee recognizes that the services to be performed by him pursuant to this Agreement are special, unique and extraordinary.  The parties confirm that it is reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company's goodwill that Employee agree, and accordingly, Employee does hereby agree and covenant (the "Covenant Not to Compete"), that during Employee's Term (as hereinafter defined), Employee will not, directly or indirectly, except for the benefit of the Company:

 
(i)
become an officer, director, more than 5% stockholder, partner, associate, employee, owner, proprietor, agent, creditor, independent contractor, co-venturer or otherwise, or be interested in or associated with any other corporation, firm or business engaged in the Territory (as hereinafter defined) in the same or any similar business competitive with that of the Company (including the Company's present and future subsidiaries and affiliates) as such business shall exist on the day of the Closing and during Employee's Term; or

 
(ii)
solicit, cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be solicited for or on behalf of himself or third parties from parties who were customers of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates) at any time during Employee's Term, any business similar to the business transacted by the Company with such customer; or

 
 
(iii)
accept or cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be accepted for or on behalf of himself or third parties, business from any such customers of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or

 
(iv)
solicit, or cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be solicited for employment for or on behalf of himself or third parties, any persons who were at any time during Employee's Term hereunder, employees of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or

 
2

 

 
 
(v)
employ or cause or authorize, directly or indirectly, to be employed for or on behalf of himself or third parties, any such employees of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or

 
(vi)
use the tradenames, trademarks, or trade dress of any of the products of the Company (including its present and future subsidiaries and affiliates); or any substantially similar tradename, trademark or trade dress likely to cause, or having the effect of causing, confusion in the minds of manufacturers, customers, suppliers and retail outlets and the public generally.

Employee acknowledges his intention that the Company shall have the broadest possible protection of the value of the business in the Territory consistent with public policy, and it will not violate the intent of the parties if any court should determine that, consistent with established precedent of the forum state, the public policy of such state requires a more limited restriction in geographical area or duration of the aforesaid covenant not to compete, contained in an appropriate decree.

4.2.        Term.  The term of Employee's Covenant Not to Compete with the Company as set forth in this Article IV, shall commence on the date of Employee's last day of employment with the Company, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, regardless of the reason for the termination of such employment, and shall terminate three years thereafter.  The term of this Covenant Not to Compete as it relates to Employee under this Article is referred to hereinafter as "Employee's Term."

4.3. Territory.  The territory of this Agreement shall be the United States of America (collectively, the "Territory").

     4.4. Breach by Employee of Covenant Not to Compete

 
4.4.1. Injunctive Relief.   The parties confirm that of primary importance to the Company is the agreement by Employee not to be an officer, director, stockholder, partner, associate, employee, owner, proprietor, agent, creditor, independent contractor, co-venturer or otherwise, or be interested in or associated with any other corporation, firm, business or entity which competes with the Company's business during Employee's Term.  The parties further confirm that damages resulting from a breach of the Covenant Not to Compete contained herein may be difficult to calculate and insufficient to remedy the injury resulting from such breach, particularly with respect to any ongoing or prospective breach.  Accordingly, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other right and remedy it may have at law or in equity, to a preliminary and permanent injunction, without the posting of any bond or other security, enjoining or restraining Employee, as the case may be, from any violation or threatened violation of this Covenant Not to Compete.  If any of the restrictions contained herein shall be deemed to be unenforceable by reason of the extent, duration or geographical scope thereof, or otherwise, then the court making such determination shall have the right to reduce such extent, duration, geographical scope, or other provisions hereof, and in its reduced form this Covenant Not to Compete shall then be enforceable in the manner contemplated hereby.

 
3

 

 
4.4.2. Damages.  Nothing contained in this Article IV shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for any such breach or threatened breach, including recovery of damages and an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from such violation.

ARTICLE V

(i) During any period that Employee fails to perform his duties hereunder as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, the benefits shall be determined in accordance with any disability policy and disability insurance plans, then in effect.

 
(ii) If Employee's employment shall be terminated for Cause, the Company shall pay to him the base salary through the date of termination at the rate in effect at the time the Notice of Termination is given and the Company shall have no further obligations to Employee under this Agreement, except to make payment in cash at the base salary rate for any vacation accrued but not taken.

 
(iii) If Employee shall terminate his employment pursuant to Section 5.4 above, the Company shall pay Employee his base salary through the date of termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given plus payment in case at the base salary rate for any vacation accrued but not taken.

 
(iv) Unless Employee is terminated for Cause, or by mutual consent, the Company shall maintain in full force and effect, for the continued benefit of Employee, all employee benefit plans and programs or arrangements in which he was entitled to participate immediately prior to the date of termination, provided that Employee's continued participation is possible under the general terms and provisions of such plans and programs until the earlier of:
