ContractPal’s mission is to provide tools to empower customers of all sizes to quickly, easily and affordably offer all of their contracts online.
As a first step to fulfilling that mission, ContractPal’s founders were heavily involved in lobbying for the electronic signature laws that we have in the United States. The federal law that gave birth and validity to electronic contracts was passed on June 30, 2000. Shortly thereafter, enabled the execution of the first electronic contracts on the web, including:
- The first Online Automobile Financing and Purchase on October 1, 2000
- The first Online Mortgage Transaction on October 2, 2000
As a second step in fulfilling our mission, we formed NxLight and began providing electronic contracting consulting services and technology to a number of small and large companies. While doing so, we learned several important things:
- Electronic signature projects involved a lot of people
- Electronic signature projects required a long time to implement.
- Electronic signature projects were expensive.
- Only large companies with deep pockets implement online contracting solutions.
- Only the highest volume form contracts were moved online, while smaller projects were ignored.
As the third step in fulfilling our mission, in 2005 based upon what we had learned, we decided we needed to do something revolutionary if we were ever to fulfill our mission. For two years now, we curtailed our consulting services and focused exclusively on how to overcome the hurdles our customers faced. As part of our effort, we have developed the first ever electronic contracting platform, ContractPal.
As a fourth step in fulfilling our mission, in 2007 we began the launch ContractPal. As part of our launch, we are changing our name to ContractPal, Inc.

Q Therapeutics is an emerging biopharmaceutical company that utilizes cell-based technologies to develop new treatments for debilitating diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). In 2004, we began the process of translating decades of research at the University of Utah, Cornell Medical College, and the National Institute of Health (NIH) into practical new therapeutic products. Our exclusive licenses with these institutions have resulted in 16 issued patents, with many more pending.
Q’s initial development efforts have focused on natural cell-based products that replace insulating myelin on damaged neurons, with the goal of restoring normal neuron function. Our first product, called Q-Cells™, is designed to address a wide range of diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS), transverse myelitis, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, and certain types of stroke. Our patented cellular technologies and manufacturing processes, combined with an experienced management team and a focused strategy, will enable us to develop a comprehensive product pipeline to treat CNS diseases in ways no existing drug can.
Q has patents covering cells that give rise to the entire central nervous system. Both Q-Cells and other of Q’s cell types can be made available under collaborative research or licensing arrangements.
When co-founder Alex Siow seized on the idea that everything in the home is an opportunity for personal expression, he began by elevating the hood to its rightful place: no longer an afterthought, the hood stands above all, as distinctive in its performance as it is in its beauty.
Since the launch of our first hoods in 1997, we have remained true to our vision of delivering the unexpected—by deliberately seeking to change the marketplace.
Zephyr was first to recognize the unmet demand for more powerful, professional-grade hoods in the home. And we answered with the Power series, high-CFM performers that put air quality concerns to rest with quiet efficiency—and raised the bar with self-cleaning, filter-free technologies never before available.
Having earned a reputation for well constructed, high-powered range hoods, Zephyr set its sight on redefining the industry by focusing on style and design. In 2000, the Europa Collection ushered in a new millennium with a design-forward clarion call to those who could find little inspiration above the range. Since then we have taken our vision ever higher, working with some of the world’s best designers to find beauty in the everyday and create collections that are truly unlike any other.
Like Ammunition Design’s Robert Brunner whose passion for geometry and the interaction between a product and its owner led to the design of the Arc Collection. And California’s Fu-Tung Cheng, the kitchen and bath design guru who has inspired millions with his books and ideas. And the renowned Bang + Olufsen designer David Lewis, who contributed his radically innovative aesthetic to a collection of daring works that captured the imagination of the marketplace.
It’s all for you. Look beyond the expected, and together, we’ll discover new possibilities.
