Exhibit 10.6

 

Senior Advisor Agreement

 

This Agreement is entered into by and between Lightlake Therapeutics Inc. (the “Company”) and Brad Miles (“Miles”) (collectively, the “Parties”) on January 22, 2013 (the “Agreement”).

 

WHEREAS Miles is a Senior Advisor to the Company;

 

WHEREAS the Company has requested that Miles provide additional services beneficial to the Company beyond the scope of what Miles has previously provided to the Company (the “Services”);

 

WHEREAS Miles has received compensation deemed by the Company to be inadequate to retain Miles as a Senior Advisor;

 

WHEREAS the Company seeks to retain Miles as a Senior Advisor; and

 

WHEREAS the Company seeks to provide Miles with additional incentive to remain a Senior Advisor and perform the Services;

 

NOW THEREFORE, 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 hereby mutually agree as follows:

 

1)Miles shall provide the Services until one (1) year from the date hereof.

 

2)Any compensation granted herein shall be in addition to any other option compensation previously granted by the Company to Miles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all options previously granted by the Company to Miles with an exercise price above $0.12 shall be cancelled and deemed ineffective on the date hereof and be surrendered to the Company within thirty (30) days of the date hereof.

 

3)Miles shall be granted stock options for one million seven hundred and fifty thousand (1,750,000) shares of stock of the Company, exercisable at US$0.15 (“Exercise Price”) with the life of such options being five (5) years (collectively, the “Options”). Such Options shall be exercisable in the form of Notice of Stock Option Grant attached as Exhibit A hereto, which Options may be exercised, where applicable, pursuant to the form of Notice of Exercise of Stock Option (the “Exercise Notice”) attached as Exhibit B hereto. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Options to the contrary, if the fair market value of one share of Common Stock (as defined in the Stock Option Plan of the Company effective December 15, 2010 (the “Stock Option Plan”)) is greater than the exercise price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising the Options for cash, the Holder (as defined in the Stock Option Plan) may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of the Options (or the portion thereof being exercised) by surrender of the Options at the principal office of the Company together with the properly signed Exercise Notice in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

 

 

 

 

X= Y(A-B)  
  A  
     
Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder
   
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Options or, if only a portion of the Options are being exercised, the portion of the Options being exercised (at the date of such calculation)
   
A = the fair market value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock (at the date of such calculation)
   
B =

the Exercise Price per share (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Options may only be exercised between the following dates: (i) the earliest date on which the price per share of the Company’s Common Stock has traded at or above US$0.30 for at least three (3) trading days out of any ten (10) consecutive trading days; and (ii) their expiration date. Proportionate adjustments shall automatically be made to both the Exercise Price and number of such Options, and the price per share restriction set forth in this paragraph, in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of the Company’s Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, or upon any other event reasonably determined by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company to justify such adjustments.

 

Within one (1) month following the date hereof, the Company shall deliver to Miles all Options granted herein. All such Options delivered to Miles as per this Agreement may be delivered to Miles electronically with a scanned signature, in which case they shall have the same effect and force as if they had been delivered in original signed form. For all Options granted to Miles electronic delivery of a signed Exercise Notice along with electronic delivery of such Options shall have the same exercise effect as surrendering such Options at the principal office of the Company together with the properly signed Exercise Notice.

 

 

 

  

4)In the event of termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to provide any further compensation to Miles.

 

5)This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, and specifically the laws of the state of Nevada. Should a dispute arise, both parties shall subject themselves to exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the state of Nevada.

 

6)This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the Parties relating to its subject matter, superseding all negotiations, prior discussions, preliminary agreements and agreements relating to the subject matter hereof made prior to the date hereof. No waiver by a Party of any breach by another Party of any term, provision or condition of this Agreement, to be performed by such other Party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same time or at any prior or subsequent time. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by the Parties. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that this Agreement has been jointly prepared, and that no claim may be asserted by any Party that any ambiguity in this Agreement may be construed against any one Party.

 

7)This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. The Parties further agree that such counterparts may be provided via scan, email, and/or facsimile to one another, each of which shall be binding upon the signatory who sends the scan, email and/or facsimile that was signed by such sending signatory. The Parties further agree to exchange the original signature pages hereof as soon as practicable after sending such scan, email and/or facsimile, but in any dispute or controversy, the Parties hereto agree that it shall not be necessary for any such Party to provide the original signature pages of the other as a condition of enforcing this Agreement, it being understood that such scan, email and/or facsimile signature pages shall be sufficient to establish the consent of the Party who sent the scan, email and/or facsimile that was signed by such sending signatory to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

 

8)This Agreement does not include any appropriate compensation that the Company would be obligated to provide Miles as a result of the relationships Miles developed with Pfizer Inc., AstraZeneca, and Purdue Pharma L.P. that result in a financial strategic partnership where any or all of the Company's treatments would receive funding to move clinical trials forward.

 

 

 

  

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have executed this Agreement this 22 day of January 2013.
