(b) Each Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that each covenant contained in Article VIII, IX, or X hereof shall be given independent effect. Accordingly, no Borrower shall engage in any transaction or other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in Article VIII, IX, or X if, before or after giving effect to such transaction or act, such Borrower shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in Article VIII, IX, or X.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BY THE EXECUTIVE The Executive acknowledges that (a) prior to and during the Employment Period and as a part of his employment, the Executive has been and will be afforded access to Confidential Information; (b) public disclosure of such Confidential Information could have an adverse effect on the Employer and its business; (c) because the Executive possesses substantial technical expertise and skill with respect to the Employer’s business, the Employer desires to obtain exclusive ownership of each Employee Invention, and the Employer will be at a substantial competitive disadvantage if it fails to acquire exclusive ownership of each Employee Invention; and (d) the provisions of this Section 7 are reasonable and necessary to prevent the improper use or disclosure of Confidential Information and to provide the Employer with exclusive ownership of all Employee Inventions.
Acknowledgments by the Employee The Employee acknowledges that (a) during the Employment Period and as a part of his employment, the Employee will be afforded access to Confidential Information; (b) public disclosure of such Confidential Information could have an adverse effect on the Employer and its business; (c) since the Employee possesses substantial expertise and skill with respect to the Employer's business, the Employer desires to obtain exclusive ownership of each Employee Invention, and the Employer will be at a substantial competitive disadvantage if it fails to acquire exclusive ownership of each Employee Invention; (d) the Compensation provided to Employee hereunder constitutes good and sufficient consideration for the Employee's agreements and covenants in this Section 7; and (e) the provisions of this Section 7 are reasonable and necessary to prevent the improper use or disclosure of Confidential Information and to provide the Employer with exclusive ownership of all Employee Inventions.
Acknowledgment and Waiver The following provisions supplement Section 14 of the Grant Agreement: The Employee acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan. The Employee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant RSUs under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on an ongoing basis except as provided in the Plan. Consequently, the Employee understands that the RSUs are granted on the assumption and condition that the RSUs or the Shares acquired upon vesting shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Employee understands that this grant would not be made to the Employee but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, the Employee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then the RSUs shall be null and void. The RSUs are a conditional right to Shares and can be forfeited in the case of, or affected by, the Employee's termination of service or employment. This will be the case, for example, even if (1) the Employee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) the Employee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) the Employee terminates employment or service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) the Employee terminates employment or service due to unilateral breach of contract of the Company, the Employer, or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate; or (5) the Employee's employment or service terminates for any other reason whatsoever, except for reasons specified in the Grant Agreement. Consequently, upon termination of the Employee's employment or service for any of the reasons set forth above, the Employee may automatically lose any rights to the unvested RSUs granted to him or her as of the date of the Employee's termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Grant Agreement.
Acknowledgment Executive acknowledges that he has had the opportunity to discuss this matter with and obtain advice from his private attorney, has had sufficient time to, and has carefully read and fully understands all the provisions of this Agreement, and is knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Agreement.
