Article Four
Special Covenants
4.1 Confidentiality, Non-Circumvention and Non-Competition.
During the term of this Agreement, all renewals thereof and for a period of
two years after its termination, the Independent Contractor hereby irrevocably
agrees to be bound by the following restrictions, which constitute a material
inducement for Vista's entry into this Agreement and for AmeriNet's agreement to
provide shares of its common stock as the securities underlying the Options:
(a) Because the Independent Contractor will be developing for Vista, making
use of, acquiring and/or adding to, confidential information of special
and unique nature and value relating to such matters as Vista's trade
secrets, systems, procedures, manuals, confidential reports, personnel
resources, strategic and tactical plans, advisors, clients, investors
and funders; as material inducement to the entry into this Agreement by
Vista, the Independent Contractor hereby covenants and agrees not to
personally use, divulge or disclose, for any purpose whatsoever,
directly or indirectly, any of such confidential information during the
term of this Agreement, any renewals thereof, and for a period of two
years after its termination.
(b) The Independent Contractor hereby covenants and agrees to be bound as a
fiduciary of Vista, as if the Independent Contractor were a partner in
a partnership bound by the partnership opportunities doctrine, as such
concept has been judicially and legislatively developed in the State of
Florida, and consequently, without the prior written consent of Vista,
on a specific, case by case basis, the Independent Contractor shall
not, among other things, directly or indirectly:
(1) Engage in any activities, whether or not for profit, competitive
with Vista's business.
419
(2) Solicit or accept any person providing services to Vista, whether
as an employee, consultant or independent contractor, for
employment or provision of services.
(3) Induce any client or customer of Vista to cease doing business
with Vista or to engage in business with any person engaged in
business activities that compete with Vista's business.
(4) Divert any business opportunity within the general scope of
Vista's business and business capacity, to any other person or
entity.
4.2 Special Remedies.
In view of the irreparable harm and damage which would undoubtedly occur to
Vista as a result of a breach by the Independent Contractor of the covenants or
agreements contained in this Article Four, and in view of the lack of an
adequate remedy at law to protect Vista's interests, the Independent Contractor
hereby covenants and agrees that Vista shall have the following additional
rights and remedies in the event of a breach hereof:
(a) In addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies or
damages available to Vista, whether at law or in equity, it shall be
entitled to a permanent injunction in order to prevent or to restrain
any such breach by the Independent Contractor, or by the Independent
Contractor's partners, agents, representatives, servants, employers,
employees, affiliates and/or any and all persons directly or indirectly
acting for or with him and the Independent Contractor hereby consents
to the issuance of such a permanent injunction; and
(b) Because it is impossible to ascertain or estimate the entire or exact
cost, damage or injury which Vista may sustain prior to the effective
enforcement of such injunction, the Independent Contractor hereby
covenants and agrees to pay over to Vista, in the event he violates the
covenants and agreements contained in Section 4.2 hereof, the greater
of:
(1) Any payment or compensation of any kind received by the
Independent Contractor or by persons affiliated with or acting
for or with the Independent Contractor, because of such
violation before the issuance of such injunction, or
(2) The sum of One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dollars per violation,
which sum shall be liquidated damages, and not a penalty, for
the injuries suffered by Vista as a result of such violation,
the Parties hereto agreeing that such liquidated damages are
not intended as the exclusive remedy available to Vista for
any breach of the covenants and agreements contained in this
Article Four, prior to the issuance of such injunction, the
Parties recognizing that the only adequate remedy to protect
Vista from the injury caused by such breaches would be
injunctive relief.
4.3 Cumulative Remedies.
The Independent Contractor hereby irrevocably agrees that the remedies
described in Section 4.2 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any
of the rights or remedies to which Vista is or may be entitled to, whether at
law or in equity, under or pursuant to this Agreement.
420
4.4 Acknowledgment of Reasonableness.
(a) The Independent Contractor hereby represents, warrants and acknowledges
that having carefully read and considered the provisions of this Article
Four, the restrictions set forth herein are fair and reasonable and are
reasonably required for the protection of the interests of Vista, its
officers, directors and employees; consequently, in the event that any of
the above-described restrictions shall be held unenforceable by any court
of competent jurisdiction, the Independent Contractor hereby covenants,
agrees and directs such court to substitute a reasonable judicially
enforceable limitation in place of any limitation deemed unenforceable and,
the Independent Contractor hereby covenants and agrees that if so modified,
the covenants contained in this Article Four shall be as fully enforceable
as if they had been set forth herein directly by the Parties.
(b) In determining the nature of this limitation, the Independent Contractor
hereby acknowledges, covenants and agrees that it is the intent of the
Parties that a court adjudicating a dispute arising hereunder recognize
that the Parties desire that these covenants not to circumvent, disclose or
compete be imposed and maintained to the greatest extent possible.
4.5 Unauthorized Acts.
The Independent Contractor hereby covenants and agrees not do any act or
incur any obligation on behalf of Vista except as authorized by its board of
directors or by its stockholders pursuant to duly adopted stockholder action or
reasonably inferred therefrom.
