Section 10. Certain Company Protection Provisions. The following provisions apply for the protection of the Company, and shall survive indefinitely, beyond the duration of this Agreement:
a) Non-competition. During the Restricted Period (as hereinafter defined), the Executive shall not directly or indirectly compete with the Company or own, manage, control or participate in the ownership, management or control of, or be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or associated with any Competitive Business (as hereinafter defined) in any location in which the Company is doing business as of the Employment Termination Date. As used herein, the term “Restricted Period” means the Employment Period and a period of twelve (12) months thereafter. As used herein, a “Competitive Business” is any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, proprietorship, firm, association or other business entity which is engaged in any business from which the Company derives any of its revenues during the twelve (12) months preceding the Employment Termination Date or in which the Company has invested five percent (5%) or more of its total assets as of the time in question.
5
b) Non-Interference. During the Restricted Period, the Executive shall not induce or solicit any employee of the Company or any person doing business with the Company to terminate his or her employment or business relationship with the Company or otherwise interfere with any such relationship.
c) Confidentiality. The Executive agrees and acknowledges that, by reason of the nature of his duties as an officer and employee, he will have or may have access to and become informed of confidential and secret information which is a competitive asset of the Company (“Confidential Information”), including without limitation any lists of customers or subscribers, financial statistics, research data or any other statistics and plans contained in profit plans, capital plans, critical issue plans strategic plans or marketing or operation plans or other trade secrets of the Company and any of the foregoing which belong to any person or company but to which the Executive has had access by reason of his employment relationship with the Company. The Executive agrees faithfully to keep in strict confidence, and not, either directly or indirectly, to make known, divulge, reveal, furnish, make available or use (except for use in the regular course of his employment duties) any such Confidential Information. The Executive acknowledges that all manuals, instruction books, price lists, experiment logs or papers, information and records and other information and aids relating to the Company’s business, and any and all other documents containing Confidential Information furnished to the Executive by the Company or otherwise acquired or developed by the Executive, shall at all times be the property of the Company. Upon the Employment Termination Date, the Executive shall return to the Company any such property or documents which are in his possession, custody or control, but his obligation of confidentiality shall survive the Employment Termination Date until and unless any such Confidential Information shall have become, through no fault of the Executive, generally known to the trade. The obligations of the Executive under this subsection are in addition to, and not in limitation or preemption of, all other obligations of confidentiality which the Executive may have to the Company under general legal or equitable principles.
d) Remedies. It is expressly agreed by the Executive and the Company that these provisions are reasonable for purposes of preserving for the Company its business, goodwill and proprietary information. It is also agreed that if any provision is found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable because of scope, area or time, then that provision shall be amended to correspond in scope, area and time to that considered reasonable by a court and as amended shall be enforced and the remaining provisions shall remain effective. In the event of any breach of these provisions by the Executive, the parties recognize and acknowledge that a remedy at law will be inadequate and the Company may suffer irreparable injury. The Executive acknowledges that the services to be rendered by him are of a character giving them peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be adequately compensated for in damages. Accordingly, the Executive consents to injunctive and other appropriate equitable relief without the posting of any type of bond or surety upon the institution of proceedings therefore by the Company in order to protect the Company’s rights. Such relief shall be in addition to any other relief to which the Company may be entitled at law or in equity.
6
Section 11. Indemnification. As an officer of the Company, the Executive shall be indemnified by the Company in accordance with the indemnification provisions of the Company’s Bylaws as in effect on the date hereof, and otherwise to the extent to which officers of a corporation organized under the laws of Nevada may be indemnified pursuant Nevada Statutes, as the same may be amended from time to time (or any subsequent statute of similar tenor and effect), subject to the terms and conditions of such statute.
Section 12. Successors and Assigns. Except as hereinafter exCOOsly provided, the agreements, covenants, terms and provisions of this Agreement shall bind the respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the parties. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the other, assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, except as provided in this Section 12. Without limiting the foregoing, the Executive’s right to receive payments hereunder shall not be assignable or transferable, whether by pledge, creation of a security interest or otherwise, and in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer in contravention of this Section 12, the Company shall have no liability to pay to the purported assignee or transferee any amount so attempted to be assigned or transferred. The company can assign to parent corporation without consent.

Section 14. Waiver: Remedies Cumulative.

No waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement or of any agreement or covenant contained herein shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other breach or a continuation of the same breach.

If and to the extent any one or more covenants, agreements, terms and provisions of this Agreement or any portion or portions thereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such covenants, agreements, terms and provisions (or portions thereof) shall be deemed separable from the remaining covenants, agreements, terms and provisions of this Agreement and such holding shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other covenants, agreements, terms and provisions hereof.
