Blaine Riley, Randall Letcavage, Rosemary Nguyen, David W. Keaveney, Jason M. Genet, and Michael L. Labertew (collectively, the "Consultants").

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of GTM has adopted a written compensation agreement for compensation of six individual Consultants who are natural persons; and

WHEREAS, GTM has engaged the Consultants to provide services at the request of and subject to the satisfaction of its management; and

WHEREAS, the Consultants have provided services at the request and subject to the approval of the management of GTM; and

WHEREAS, a general description of the nature of the services performed and to be performed by the Consultants and the maximum value of such services under this Plan are listed in the Counterpart Signature Pages and exhibits thereto; and

WHEREAS, GTM and the Consultants intend that this Plan and the services performed hereunder shall be made, requested and performed in such a manner that this Plan shall be a "written compensation agreement" as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") pursuant to which GTM may issue "freely tradeable" shares (except as may be limited by "affiliate" status) of its common stock as payment for services rendered pursuant to an S-8 Registration Statement to be filed with the Commission by GTM;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, it is agreed:

Section 1

Compensation Plan

1.1 Employment. GTM hereby employs the Consultants and the consultants hereby accept such employment, and have and will perform the services requested by management of GTM to its satisfaction during the term hereof. The services performed by the Consultants hereunder have been and will be personally rendered by the Consultants, and no one acting for or on behalf of the Consultants, except those persons normally employed by the consultants in rendering services to others, such as secretaries, bookkeepers and the like.

1.2 Independent Contractors. Regardless of the Consultants' status as "employees" under Rule 405 of the Commission, all services rendered by the Consultants hereunder have been rendered as independent contractors, and the Consultants shall be liable for any FICA taxes, withholding or other similar taxes or charges, and the Consultants shall indemnify and hold GTM harmless therefrom; it is understood and agreed that the value of all such items has been taken into account by the Consultants in computing the billable rate for the services the Consultants have rendered and agreed to render to GTM.

1.3 Term. All services performed at the request of GTM by the Consultants have either been performed and completed, or shall be performed within one year from the date hereof, at which time this Plan shall terminate, unless extended by written agreement of GTM and the Consultants for one additional year. If the Plan shall terminate, and options for unearned shares have been exercised and said shares issued to either consultant pursuant to this Plan, said shares shall be returned by Consultant(s) and canceled by GTM within ten days of said termination.

1.4 Payment. GTM and the Consultants agree that GTM shall pay the Consultants for the services performed under this Plan by the issuance of shares of its common stock at a price of $.10 per share as set forth in the attached agreements with and/or invoices from the Consultants; provided, however, such shares of common stock shall be issued pursuant to and shall be subject to the filing and effectiveness of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 covering such shares with the Commission.

1.5 Common Stock Price. To the extent deemed required or necessary and for all purposes of this Plan, the Consultants shall have an "option" covering such shares of common stock at the per share price set forth in paragraph 1.4 above during the term hereof; the Consultants assume the risk of any decrease in the per share price or value of the shares of common stock of GTM that may be issued by GTM for services performed by the Consultants hereunder, and the Consultants agree that any such decrease shall in no way affect the rights, obligations or duties of the Consultants hereunder.

1.6 Limitation on Services. None of the services rendered by the Consultants and paid for by the issuance of shares of common stock of GTM shall be services related to any "capital raising" or "stock promotion" transaction.

1.7 Delivery of Shares. Upon effectiveness of Registration Statement on Form S-8 of the Commission covering the shares, one or more stock certificates representing such shares shall be delivered to the respective Consultants at the addresses listed on the Counterpart Signature Pages, unless another address shall be provided to GTM in writing prior to the issuance of such shares.

1.8 Adjustments in the Number of Shares of Common Stock and Price Per Share. GTM and the Consultants agree that the per share price of shares of common stock that may be issued by GTM to the Consultants for services performed under this Plan has been arbitrarily set by GTM; however, in the event GTM shall undergo a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, declare a stock dividend of its shares of common stock or cause to be implemented a forward or reverse stock split which affects the present number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of GTM prior to the issuance of shares to the Consultants, that the per share price and the number of shares issuable to the Consultants for services actually rendered hereunder after such event shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any such event.

1.9 Effective Date. The Effective Date of the Plan for each of the Consultants shall be the date set forth on the respective Counterpart Signature Pages.

Section 2

GTM represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Consultants as follows:

2.1 Corporate Status.

2.3 Registration Statement on Form S-8. GTM shall engage the services of a competent professional to prepare and file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the Commission to cover the shares of common stock to be issued under the Plan; shall cooperate with such professional in every manner whatsoever to the extent reasonably required or necessary so that such Registration Statement shall be competently prepared, which such Registration Statement shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and which such Registration Statement shall become effective immediately upon its filing; such Registration Statement shall be prepared at the sole cost and expense of GTM; and GTM will provide to the Consultants prior to the issuance and delivery of any such shares of common stock a copy of such Registration Statement, the Compensation Plan adopted by its Board of Directors, all quarterly, annual or current reports or other documents incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement and any other similar reports filed or publicly disseminated following the effective date of any such Registration Statement.

3.3 Suitability of Investment. Prior to the execution of this Plan, each of the Consultants shall have provided the services outlined in the respective Counterpart Signature Pages to GTM, and the Consultants, singly, or through the advice of a competent professional, fully believe that an investment in shares of common stock of GTM is a suitable investment for the Consultants.

Indemnity

GTM and the Consultants agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless for any loss or damage resulting from any misstatement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact by the other contained herein or contained in the S-8 Registration Statement of GTM to be filed hereunder, to the extent that any misstatement or omission contained in the Registration Statement was based upon information supplied by the other.

Section 5

Termination

Prior to the performance of services hereunder, this Plan may be terminated (1) by mutual consent of GTM and the respective Consultants in writing; (2) by either the Directors of GTM or the respective Consultants if there has been a material misrepresentation or material breach of any warranty or covenant by the other party; and (3) shall automatically terminate at the expiration of the term hereof, provided, however, all representations and warranties shall survive the termination hereof; provided, further, however, that any obligation of GTM to pay for any services actually rendered by the Consultants hereunder shall survive any such termination.
