The Corporation may terminate Executive’s employment at any time following a Change in Control, however any such termination of employment prior to the later of 38 months following the Effective Date or a period of twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control, shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement to constitute a termination in conjunction with the Change in Control.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information proprietary to the Corporation and not generally known (including trade secret information) about the Corporation’s customers, products, services, personnel, pricing, sales strategy, technology, methods, processes, research, development, finances, systems, techniques, accounting, purchasing and plans. All information disclosed to Executive or to which he obtains access, whether originated by him or by others, during the period that Executive is or was an employee of or consultant or contractor to the Corporation, or its predecessor PLLC or any related entity (such period being referred to as the “Employment Period”) (whether prior to execution of this Agreement or thereafter), shall be presumed to be Confidential Information if it is treated by the Corporation as being Confidential Information or if Executive has a reasonable basis to believe it to be Confidential Information.

independent Executive or in any other capacity for a period of two years after the termination of the Employment Period. Executive acknowledges that the purpose of this information is to allow the Corporation to inform such companies that Executive is in possession of Confidential Information of the Corporation. Executive further acknowledges that Executive’s failure to supply the information required by this provision may make Executive personally liable for any use of the Corporation’s Confidential Information by those companies.

9.) Inventions.

(a) Assignment of Inventions and Works Limitation of Assignment in Certain Cases. Executive acknowledges that Executive will exercise Executive’s inventive and creative abilities for the benefit of the Corporation.

(2) Executive agrees that all Works are the sole property of the Corporation, and shall, to the extent possible, be considered works made for hire for Corporation within the meaning of Title 17 of the United States Code; provided, however, that if Executive is domiciled in California or if any of the Work is created in California, then such Work shall not be a work made for hire. If for any reason any Work is not deemed to be a work made for hire, then Executive assigns and transfers to the Corporation Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to such Work, and Executive further waives all of his rights under the United States Copyright Act and under any other country’s copyright law, including any rights provided in 17 U.S.C. §§ 106 and 106A, for any and all purposes for which such Work and any derivative works thereof may be used, and any

		/s/ Xxxx X. Xxxxx		Corporation

9

rights of attribution and integrity or any other “moral rights of authors” with respect to such Work and any derivative works thereof and any uses thereof to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by the laws of the United States of America or the laws of any other country. For purposes of this Agreement, “Works” shall include but not be limited to all copyrightable works created by Executive (whether solely by Executive or jointly with others) during the Employment Period, or any time thereafter, which relate in any manner to the business, work or research and development of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, or result from and are suggested by any task assigned to Executive or any work performed by Executive for or on behalf of the Corporation or its subsidiaries.

If any such assignment is invalid or ineffective for any reason, then Executive hereby grants Corporation a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide license to fully exploit any intellectual property or propriety rights in such Inventions and Works and any patents and copyrights (or other intellectual property or propriety registrations or applications) resulting there from.

(b) Disclosure of Inventions, Works and Patents. Executive agrees that in connection with any Invention and Work:

(1) Executive will disclose such Invention promptly in writing to the President of the Corporation, or the Board of Directors of the Corporation, if the Executive is the President of the Corporation, in order to permit the Corporation to claim rights to which it may be entitled under this Agreement. Such disclosure shall be received in confidence by the Corporation.

(2) Executive will, at the Corporation’s request, promptly execute a written assignment of title to the Corporation for any Invention required to be assigned by this Article (“Assignable Invention”), and Executive will preserve any such Assignable Invention as confidential information of the Corporation.

(3) Executive will give to the relevant contact person at the Corporation a copy of such Work. Executive will, at the Corporation’s request, promptly execute a written assignment of title to the Corporation for any such Work.

(4) Upon request, Executive agrees to assist the Corporation or its nominee (at its expense) during and at any time subsequent to the Employment Period in every reasonable way to obtain for its own benefit patents and copyrights for such Assignable Inventions and such Works in any and all countries, which Inventions and Works shall be and remain the sole and

		/s/ Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx		Executive
		/s/ Xxxx X. Xxxxx		Corporation

10

exclusive property of the Corporation or its nominee whether or not patented or copyrighted. Executive agrees to execute such papers and perform such lawful acts as the Corporation deems to be necessary to allow it to exercise all right, title and interest in such patents and copyrights.

(c) Execution of Documents. In connection with this Section 9, Executive further agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Corporation or its nominee upon request (at its expense) all such documents, including applications for patents and copyrights and assignments of inventions, patents and copyrights to be issued therefore, as the Corporation may determine necessary or desirable to apply for and obtain letters, patents and copyrights on such Assignable Inventions and such Works in any and all countries and/or to protect the interest of the Corporation or its nominee in such Inventions, such Works, patents and copyrights, and to vest title thereto in the Corporation or its nominee.

(d) Maintenance of Records. Executive agrees to keep and maintain adequate and current written records of all Inventions and Works made or created by Executive (in the form of notes, sketches, drawings and other typical forms), which records shall be available to and remain the sole property of the Corporation at all times.

(e) Prior Inventions. It is understood that all inventions, if any, patented or unpatented, which Executive made prior to the Executive’s first day as an employee of or consultant or contractor to the Corporation, its predecessor PLLC or any related entity (and which have not been otherwise assigned or transferred to the Corporation) are excluded from the scope of this Agreement. To preclude any possible uncertainty, Executive has set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto a complete list of all Executive’s prior inventions, if any, including numbers of all patents and patent applications, and a brief description of all unpatented inventions that are not the property of a previous employer or other person and which have not been otherwise assigned or transferred to the Corporation. Executive represents and covenants that the list is complete and that, if no items are on the list, Executive has no such prior inventions. Executive agrees to notify the Corporation in writing before Executive makes any disclosure or performs any work on behalf of the Corporation which appears to threaten or conflict with proprietary rights Executive claims in any invention or idea. In the event of Executive’s failure to give such notice, Executive agrees that Executive will make no claim against the Corporation with respect to any such inventions or ideas.

(f) Trade Secrets and Intellectual Property of Others. Executive represents that Executive’s performance of all the terms of this Agreement does not and will not breach any noncompetition or nonsolicitation agreement, or any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by Executive in confidence or in trust prior to the Employment Period, and Executive will not disclose to the Corporation or induce the Corporation to use any confidential or proprietary information or material

		/s/ Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx		Executive
		/s/ Xxxx X. Xxxxx		Corporation

11

belonging to any previous employer or other person. Executive agrees not to enter into any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith.

(g) Noninfringment. Executive represents that the work product that Executive provides to the Corporation, including the Inventions and the Works, and Corporation’s use thereof in their indented manner: (a) do not and will not infringe or violate the copyright or trade secret rights of any other party; and (b) to the best of Executive’s knowledge, do not and will not infringe or violate the actual or prospective patent or trademark rights of any other party. If at any time during or after the Employment Period, Executive has reason to believe that the foregoing representation is no longer true, then Executive shall promptly inform Corporation of such belief and the reasons therefor.

(h) Other Obligations. Executive acknowledges that the Corporation from time to time may have agreements with other persons or with the U.S. Government or governments of other countries, or agencies thereof, which impose obligations or restrictions on the Corporation regarding inventions made during the course of work thereunder or regarding the confidential nature of such work. Executive agrees to be bound by all such obligations and restrictions and to take all action necessary to discharge the obligations of the Corporation thereunder.

10.) Return of Corporation Property. Upon termination of the Employment Period, Executive shall deliver promptly to the Corporation all records, manuals, books, forms, documents, letters, memoranda, data, tables, photographs, video tapes, audio tapes, computer disks and other computer storage media, and copies thereof, that are the property of the Corporation, or that relate in any way to the business, products, services, personnel, customers, practices or techniques of the Corporation. Data listed above includes but is not limited to software source code and passwords. Except Executive may retain a copy of all materials used in the normal course of fulfilling his duties and in his possession for the sole purpose of facilitating any disagreement resolution. Executive also shall promptly return all other property of the Corporation (such as, for example, computers, cellular telephones, pagers, credit cards and keys), whether or not containing Confidential Information, that are in Executive’s possession or under his control. Executive shall agree to indemnify the corporation against any and all losses arising from the misuse of said documents while these documents are under the control of Executive during or after termination of Agreement.

11.) Non-Competition.

(a) Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for a period of twelve (12) months after the Employment Period ends, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, Executive will not directly or indirectly:

(1) induce or attempt to induce any person who is employed by or otherwise engaged to perform services for the Corporation to cease working for the Corporation;

				Initialed by:
		/s/ Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx		Executive
		/s/ Xxxx X. Xxxxx		Corporation

12

(2) induce or attempt to induce any customer, client, vendor, or supplier of the Corporation to cease doing business with the Corporation; or

(3) engage or participate, either individually or as an employee, contractor, consultant, principal, owner, partner, agent, trustee, officer, director or shareholder of a corporation, partnership or other business entity, in any business which competes with the Corporation or engages in any line of business which the Corporation has entered or internally announced an intention to enter prior to the end of the Employment Period, including, without limitation, the provision of radiology services through the Internet to Providers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Article shall be deemed to preclude Executive from holding less than 1% of the outstanding capital stock of any corporation required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the securities of which are listed on any national securities exchange or quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System or traded on the over-the-counter market.

(b) Executive acknowledges that the Corporation has expended substantial time and expense in the acquisition, research and development of processes, technology, techniques and products which are unique to the Corporation or not generally known to others and which could be unfairly taken or used by others in competition with the Corporation, and further acknowledges that competition with the Corporation is not based strictly on geographical location. Accordingly, Executive agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable. If the scope of the restrictions contained herein is too broad to permit enforcement of such restrictions to their full extent, then such restrictions shall be construed or re-written (“blue-lined”) so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law, and Executive hereby consents, to the extent Executive may lawfully do so, to the judicial modification of the scope of such restrictions in any proceeding brought to enforce such restrictions.

12.) Survival of Provisions. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of Sections 8, 9,10 and 11, and any obligations of the Corporation under Sections 4 and 5 to provide payments to Executive beyond the date that this Agreement is terminated, shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

13.) Equitable Remedies. Executive acknowledges that the Corporation’s remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement will be inadequate. Therefore, the Corporation shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief restraining Executive from

				Initialed by:
		/s/ Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx		Executive
		/s/ Xxxx X. Xxxxx		Corporation

13

violating those requirements, in addition to any other remedies that may be available to the Corporation under this Agreement or applicable law.

14.) Successors; Binding Agreement. The Corporation will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Corporation to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall entitle Executive to terminate his employment for Good Reason in accordance with Section 5(c)(2).

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, successors, heirs, and designated beneficiaries.
