Restrictive Covenant (a) The Employee hereby acknowledges and recognizes that, during the Employment Period, the Employee will be privy to trade secrets and confidential proprietary information critical to the Company's business and the Employee further acknowledges and recognizes that the Company would find it extremely difficult or impossible to replace the Employee and, accordingly, the Employee agrees that, in consideration of the benefits to be received by the Employee hereunder, the Employee will not, from and after the date hereof until the first anniversary of the termination of the Employment Period (or six months after the termination of the Employment Period if such termination is as a result of a termination for Good Reason following a Change in Control), (i) directly or indirectly engage in the development, production, marketing or sale of products that compete (or, upon commercialization, would compete) with products of the Company being developed (so long as such development has not been abandoned), marketed or sold at the time of the Employee's termination (such business or activity being hereinafter called a "Competing Business") whether such engagement shall be as an officer, director, owner, employee, partner, affiliate or other participant in any Competing Business, (ii) assist others in engaging in any Competing Business in the manner described in the foregoing clause (i), or (iii) induce other employees of the Company or any subsidiary thereof to terminate their employment with the Company or any subsidiary thereof or engage in any Competing Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "Competing Business" shall not include any business or activity that was not conducted by the Company prior to the effective date of a Change in Control. (b) The Employee understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit the ability of the Employee to earn a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Company, but nevertheless believes that the Employee has received and will receive sufficient consideration and other benefits, as an employee of the Company and as otherwise provided hereunder, to justify such restrictions which, in any event (given the education, skills and ability of the Employee), the Employee believes would not prevent the Employee from earning a living.
