	·	Employee represents, covenants, and warrants that: (i) the Employee Responsibilities shall be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner; (ii) none of the Employee Responsibilities or any part of this Employment Agreement is or shall be inconsistent with any obligation Employee may have to third parties that Employee has entered into, undertaken, or acceded to prior to the date of this Employment Agreement; (iii) all work under this Employment Agreement shall be Employee’s original work or work that Employee has all requisite rights or permissions to use for the benefit of Corporation and its Affiliates; (iv) none of the Employee Responsibilities or any development, use, production, distribution, or exploitation thereof shall infringe, misappropriate, or violate any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity; and (v) the Employee Responsibilities shall be provided, in all material respects, in accordance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations and reasonable industry standards.

	·	Confidential Information. Employee understands that in the course of employment with the Corporation, Employee will acquire and/or have access to confidential and proprietary information of the Corporation and its clients, including, without limitation, information regarding the Corporation’s processes and protocols, marketing plans, budgets, unpublished financial information, business plans and strategies, and other information which is proprietary and/or confidential information of the Corporation, all of which is referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.”Employee understands that employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust between Employee and the Corporation with respect to any such Confidential Information. Employee also understands and agrees that the Corporation has provided good and sufficient consideration for Employee’s obligations under this Agreement by providing Employee with employment.
	·	Employee acknowledges that it is important to the Corporation’s reputation, goodwill, and competitive situation in the market that there be no improper disclosure or use of Confidential Information.

	·	Employee shall not, during the term of this Employment Agreement or thereafter, make false or misleading statements or otherwise make any statement that could harm the business, operations, reputation or goodwill of the Corporation or any of its affiliates or its members, other than any truthful statement to a regulator or self-regulatory organization in connection with any examination or proceeding or in any litigation or arbitration proceeding.
	·	Any breach of this Section will cause irreparable harm to Corporation for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and therefore, Corporation shall be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto (without the need to post a bond) in addition to any other remedies. Employee agrees that the foregoing provisions are reasonable and necessary to protect Corporation and its business. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the foregoing provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under the public policies and laws applicable in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

Miscellaneous. This Agreement and the Employee Responsibilities performed hereunder are personal to Employee and Employee shall not have the right or ability to assign, transfer or subcontract any obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of Corporation. Any attempt to do so shall be void. Corporation shall be free to transfer any of its rights under this Agreement to a third party. This is the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and no changes or modifications or waivers to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.
