Executive may not use in any way or disclose any of the Trade Secrets, directly or indirectly, either during the term of this Agreement or at any time thereafter, except as required in the course of his employment under this Agreement, if required in connection with a judicial or administrative proceeding, or if the information becomes public knowledge other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by the Executive.

Executive agrees that upon his receipt of any subpoena, process or other request to produce or divulge, directly or indirectly, any Trade Secrets to any entity, agency, tribunal or person, Executive shall timely notify and promptly hand deliver a copy of the subpoena, process or other request to the Board. For this purpose, Executive irrevocably nominates and appoints the Company (including any attorney retained by the Company), as his true and lawful attorney-in-fact, to act in Executive’s name, place and stead to perform any act that Executive might perform to defend and protect against any disclosure of any Trade Secrets.
