Form of Noncompete Agreement
THIS NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made as of this __ day of ________, 2019, (the “Effective Date”) by and between PREDICTIVE TECHNOLOGY GROUP, INC., a Nevada corporation ("Company"), and ___________________, a __________ ("Executive").
WHEREAS, Company and Taueret Laboratories, L.L.C. entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, effective the 1st day of January, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company may acquire the outstanding equity securities of Taueret Laboratories, L.L.C.; and
WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition precedent to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Covenant Not to Compete. Executive undertakes and agrees as follows:
FOR A PERIOD OF EIGHTEEN (18) MONTHS FROM THE DATE HEREOF, EXECUTIVE MAY NOT COMPETE WITH COMPANY IN THE UNITED STATES, BY ENGAGING IN THE BUSINESS OF RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND/OR COMMERCIALIZATION OF GENETIC PROGNOSTIC AND/OR DIAGNOSTIC TESTS IN THE FIELD OF WOMEN’S HEALTH. IN ADDITION, DURING SAID EIGHTEEN (18) MONTH PERIOD EXECUTIVE AGREES NOT TO INDUCE, ENTICE, HIRE OR ATTEMPT TO HIRE OR EMPLOY ANY EMPLOYEE OF COMPANY ON THE DATE HEREOF TO ENGAGE IN ANY SUCH COMPETITIVE BUSINESS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THIS COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE WILL NOT BE EFFECTIVE (i) WITH RESPECT TO ANY WORK THE EXECUTIVE DOES FOR JUNEAU BIOSCIENCES, LLC OR (ii) IF THE COMPANY ELECTS NOT TO MAKE THE “FINAL PAYMENT” AS DESCRIBED IN THE SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE MEMBERS OF TAUERET LABORATORIES, L.L.C.
2. Payment. The consideration for this Agreement is, in part, Executive’s portion of the consideration payable to the members of Taueret Laboratories, L.L.C. in connection with the Purchase Agreement.
3. Post Termination Employment. Executive acknowledges that (i) Executive will be able to earn a livelihood without violating the above restrictions; and (ii) that Executive’s ability to earn a livelihood without violating such restrictions is a material condition to Company entering into this Agreement.
4. Injunctive Relief. Executive further acknowledges: (i) that compliance with Section 1 above is necessary to protect the business and goodwill of Company, and (ii) that a breach of that section will irreparably and continually damage Company for which money damages may not be adequate.
a. Consequently, Executive agrees that, in the event of a breach or a threat to breach any of these covenants, Company shall be entitled to both (i) a preliminary or permanent injunction in order to prevent the continuation of such harm, and (ii) money damages insofar as they can be determined. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be construed to prohibit Company from also pursuing any other remedy, the parties having agreed that all remedies shall be cumulative.
E-1
b. Without limiting the foregoing, as such money damages for the period of time during which Executive violates these covenants, Company shall be entitled to recover the amount of fees, compensation or other remuneration earned by Executive from any such breach.
5. Blue Pencil Provision. The parties have attempted to limit Executive’s right to compete only to the extent necessary to protect Company from unfair competition. The parties recognize, however, that reasonable people may differ in making such a determination. Consequently, the parties hereby agree that if the duration or geographical extent of, or business activities covered by Section 1, are in excess of what is valid and enforceable under applicable law, then such provision shall be construed to cover only that duration, geographical extent or activities that are valid and enforceable. Executive acknowledges the uncertainty of the law in this respect and expressly stipulates that this Agreement be given the construction which renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law. Any reduction in the scope of Section 1 shall not be accompanied by a corresponding reduction in and to the quarterly payments required by Section 2.
6. Severability. The covenants in this Agreement shall be construed as covenants independent of one another and as obligations distinct from any other contract between Executive and Company. Any claim that Executive may have against Company shall not constitute a defense to enforcement by Company of this Agreement.
7. Specific Performance and Consent to Injunctive Relief. Irreparable harm should be presumed if Executive breaches any covenant in this Agreement. The faithful observance of all covenants in this Agreement is an essential condition to this Agreement, and Company is depending upon absolute compliance. Damages would probably be very difficult to ascertain if Executive breached any covenant in this Agreement. This Agreement is intended to protect the proprietary rights of Company in many important ways. In light of these facts, Executive agrees that any court of competent jurisdiction should immediately enjoin any breach of this Agreement upon the request of Company.
8. Notices. All notices required under this Agreement shall be made in writing and shall be deemed given when given in the manner described in the Purchase Agreement.
9. Merger. This Agreement merges and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, undertakings, covenants, or conditions, whether oral or written, express or implied, to the extent that they contradict or conflict with the terms and conditions hereof.
10. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and enforced under the laws of the State of Utah applicable to contracts made and performed in Utah.
11. Third-Party Benefit
Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of any nature whatsoever.
12. Withholding Taxes
Company may withhold from any benefits payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling.
13. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents, supplements may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed
E-2
and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopy or similar electronic medium shall be equally as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopy or similar electronic medium shall also deliver a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement; provided that the failure to deliver a manually executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of this Agreement.
14. Successors and Assigns. All the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto, whether so expressed or not. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the written consent of the other, except that Company shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder to any affiliate of Company, and Company may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any third parties succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets of Company or all or substantially all of the assets of any division or office of Company, provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Company of any of its obligations hereunder in the event such acquirer fails to perform such obligations.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this Agreement to be duly executed to be effective on the date first written above.
