Consultant shall comply with all applicable laws, statutes and regulations in performing the Services, and agrees to use his best efforts and comply with all fiduciary and professional standards in the performance of his duties hereunder. Consultant will devote such time, attention and skill to his duties under this Agreement as he deems necessary; Consultant shall control the manner and means in which he performs the Services. Consultant represents and warrants to the Company that, at all times prior to the Start Date when he has served as the Company’s Treasurer and/or CFO, and at all times during the Term, he either acted or will act, as applicable, in the best interests of the Company's shareholders.
