In addition, Xxxxxx acknowledges that he knows that there are other federal, state and local laws of other types or description regarding employment, including, but not limited to, claims arising from or derivative of any employment that Xxxxxx may have had with the Company. For the consideration set forth in this Agreement, to which neither Xxxxxx nor Research is otherwise entitled, Xxxxxx intends to voluntarily give up any rights he may have under these or any other law with respect to any employment that Xxxxxx may have had with the Company, or the cessation of any such employment, including his rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, 29 U.S.C. §621 et. seq. (“ADEA”), and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §2000 et. seq. (“Title VII”).

Each Releasor hereby releases, waives, and forever discharges any and all claims of any kind against the Company and each and every of its subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, parents, and respective predecessors, successors and assigns and their respective directors, officers, representatives, shareholders, members, managers, agents, employees, consultants and independent contractors, past, present and future, arising from any employment that Xxxxxx may have had with the Company, including under the Employment Agreement, and/or separation from employment with the Company, or from any other matter whatsoever up to and including the date of this Agreement, whether known or unknown, that he or it may have or had, including, but not limited to, fraud, claims arising under ADEA, Title VII, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, 00 X.X.X. §0000, 00 X.X.X. §0000, The Equal Pay Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. §206(d)(1), the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, 29 U.S.C. §201 et. seq., the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. §2601 et. seq., the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, 29 U.S.C. §1001 et. seq., the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §12101 et. seq., the Civil Rights Act of 1991, 105 Stat. 1071, Executive Order 11246, and any other federal, state and local fair employment practice law, workers’ compensation law, unemployment insurance law, and any other employee relations duties and obligations, whether imposed by express or implied contract, tort (including, but not limited to, all intentional torts, negligence, negligent hiring, training, supervision or retention), common law, equity, public policy statute, executive order or law, any claims for physical or emotional distress or injuries, or any other duty obligation of any kind or description, as well as any rights or claims either Releasor or his or its attorney or other representative have or may have for costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees or otherwise.

Each Releasor similarly agrees not to otherwise take or condone any action which is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to harm the Company, to impair the Company’s reputation, or to lead to unwanted or unfavorable publicity to the Company.
3.2 Each Releasor will not, at any time within one (1) year of the date hereof, without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent each Releasor acknowledges and agrees will require the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company), directly or indirectly, whether individually or as a principal, officer, stockholder, equity participant, employee, partner, joint venturer, member, manager, director or agent of, or lender, consultant or independent contractor to, any entity, or in any other capacity, other than on behalf of or for the benefit of the Company, or any entity over which the Company has control:
(a) anywhere in the Western Hemisphere, engage or participate in a business which is similar to or competitive with, directly or indirectly, the current or proposed business of the Company (as described in Exhibit A attached hereto), and shall not make any investments in any such similar or competitive entity, except that the foregoing shall not restrict a Releasor from (i) acquiring up to one percent (1%) of the outstanding voting stock of any entity whose securities are listed on a stock exchange or Nasdaq or (ii) engaging in a skin care business so long as such business does not in any way relate to stem cells;
(b) cause or seek to persuade any director, officer, employee, customer, client, account, agent or supplier of, or consultant or independent contractor to, the Company, or others with whom the Company has had a business relationship (collectively, “Business Associates”), to discontinue or materially modify the status, employment or relationship of such person or entity with the Company following the date hereof, or to become employed in any activity similar to or competitive with the business activities of the Company;

2
(e) solicit or cause or authorize to be solicited, or accept, for or on behalf of the Releasor or any third party, any business from, or the entering into a business relationship with, (I) others who are, or were within one (1) year prior to the date hereof, a customer, client, account or other Business Associate of the Company or (II) any prospective customer, client, account or other Business Associate of the Company which at or about the date hereof was actively being solicited by the Company; or
(f) initiate, solicit, facilitate or engage, alone or with others, in any transaction the purpose of which is to cause a Change of Control of the Company.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean any of the following events: (i) any “person”(as such term is used in Sections 3(a)(9) and 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), acquiring “beneficial ownership” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting stock of the Company; (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one or more related transactions to a “person” (as such term is used in Sections 3(a)(9) and 13(d) of the Exchange Act; (iii) any merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event of the Company, as a result of which the holders of the voting stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event do not directly or indirectly hold at least a majority of the voting stock of the surviving entity; or (iv) a majority of the members of the Board of Directors are no longer Continuing Directors; as used herein, a “Continuing Director” means any member of the Board of Directors who was a member of such Board of Directors as of the date hereof; provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to such date whose election or nomination for election was supported by a majority of the directors who then comprised the Continuing Directors shall be considered to be a Continuing Director.
3.3 (a) From and after the date hereof, each Releasor will treat and hold in confidence and not disclose any and all Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) and refrain from using any of the Confidential Information, and shall deliver promptly to the Company or destroy, at the written request and option of the Company, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in his or its possession. In the event that either Releasor is requested or required (by oral question or written request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar legal proceeding) to disclose any Confidential Information, he or it will notify the Company promptly of the request or requirement so that the Company may seek a protective order.
(b) For purposes hereof, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean (i) the terms and provisions of this Agreement and (ii) confidential or proprietary information and trade secrets of the Company including, without limitation, all correspondence, memoranda, files, manuals, books, lists, financial, operating or marketing records, forms, concepts, sales presentations, marketing programs, marketing strategy, business practices, bidding information, methods of operation, trademarks, patents, patent applications, other intellectual property rights, licenses, software and other technical information, customer leads, supplier lists, supplier leads, contract proposals, documents identifying past, present and future customers, hiring and training methods, personnel records, investment policies, pricing and cost information, financial and other confidential and proprietary information concerning the Company’s operations and expansion plans, other trade secrets, any analyses, compilations or reports with regard to the foregoing, and all other information relating to the Company, whether such information is in written form or on magnetic tape, floppy disks, cd-roms or other means of storing electronic data. Confidential Information shall not include any information (i) which has been publicly disclosed by means other than by a breach of a confidentiality agreement, or (ii) which is subsequently disclosed by any third party not in breach of a confidentiality agreement.
3.4 Neither Releasor shall, without the prior written consent of the Company, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities of the Company during the 180 day period following the consummation of any public or private offering of the Company’s securities, or other Company financing, or for such longer period of time as any of the Company’s officers and/or directors so agree. The underwriters, placement agents and/or subscribers in connection with such offering or financing are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 3.4 and shall have the right, power, and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party to this Agreement. Each Releasor shall execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters, placement agents and/or subscribers in connection with such offering or financing that are consistent with this Section 3.4 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.
3.5 The Releasors agree that, from and after the Agreement Effective Date, they shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, in the aggregate, (a) more than two hundred fifty thousand (250,000) shares of Common Stock of the Company on any particular day and/or (b) more than five million (5,000,000) shares of Common Stock of the Company during any three (3) calendar month period (in each case subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like). The foregoing restriction is in addition to the volume limitations provided for under applicable law. Xxxxxx represents and warranties that he does not own, directly or indirectly, any equity securities of the Company.
3.6 Simultaneously herewith, Research is entering into a Shareholder Agreement and Irrevocable Proxy with Xxxx Xxxxxxx (“Xxxxxxx”), Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “Shareholder Agreement”).
3.7 Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Research is delivering to the Company the certificates representing the Shares so that a legend may be placed on such certificates with respect to the foregoing restrictions as well as to provide that the Shares are subject to the Shareholder Agreement.
3.8 The restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are material elements of the consideration to be paid by the Company under this Agreement and are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the Company. The Releasors acknowledge and agree that the failure of the Company to pay the Termination Amount shall not excuse the Releasors from their obligations hereunder, it being understood that the sole remedy for such failure to pay shall be an action to enforce such payment.
3.9 Each Releasor understands that, in the event of any violation of the covenants set forth in this Section 3, the Company’s obligation to pay the Termination Amount shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.
3.10 The parties recognize that, because of the nature of the subject matter of this Section 3, it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to determine actual damages to the Company in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision hereof by a Releasor. Accordingly, in such event, the Company shall have the following rights and remedies:
(a) The right and remedy to have the provisions of this Agreement specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, by way of injunctive relief or otherwise, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to the Company, that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy to the Company and that the Company shall not be required to post any bond or other security in connection therewith;
(b) The right and remedy to require each Releasor to account for and pay over to the Company all monies and other consideration derived or received by either Releasor as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of any of the provisions of this Section 3, and each Releasor hereby agrees to account for and pay over such monies and other consideration to the Company; and
(c) The right to recover attorneys’ fees incurred in any action or proceeding in which it seeks to enforce its rights hereunder.
3
3.11 Each of the rights and remedies enumerated above shall be independent of the other, and shall be severally enforceable, and all of such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company under law or in equity.
3.12 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.4 and 3.5, Research shall be permitted to pledge and/or sell its shares of Common Stock of the Company in a private transaction provided that the pledgee or purchaser, as the case may be, agrees, in a writing with the Company and Xxxxxxx, to be bound by the provisions of Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 to the same extent as they apply to the Releasors (including becoming a party to the Shareholder Agreement).
4. COOPERATION. Xxxxxx agrees to provide, for a period of one year following the Agreement Effective Date, without charge or compensation, reasonable support and cooperation to the Company and/or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof, including litigation support, concerning any business matter of which he has knowledge by virtue of his relationship with the Company prior to the date hereof.
5. AFFIRMATIONS. Each Releasor affirms that it has not filed, caused to be filed, or presently is a party to any claim, complaint, or action against the Company and/or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof in any forum. Xxxxxx furthermore affirms that he has no known workplace injuries or occupational diseases.
6. RETURN OF PROPERTY. Xxxxxx certifies that he has returned all Company property, including, without limitation, office, door and file keys, identification cards, credit cards, business cards, computer access codes, instructional manuals, any cell phones or computers the Company purchased for his use, and any bank wiring code devices.
7. CHOICE OF LAW; JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. The parties agree that this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, excluding choice of law principles thereof. The Company and the Releasors hereby irrevocably consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court located within Palm Beach County, Florida over any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement (except as provided for in Section 13 hereof) and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such dispute or any legal action related thereto may be heard and determined in such courts. Each party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such dispute brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. In connection with any controversy arising out of or relating to the Agreement, each of the Company and Releasors irrevocably (a) consents to service of process out of the aforementioned courts, (b) WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) AND ANY OBJECTION THAT IT OR HE MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT BROUGHT IN THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS, (c) agrees that service of process in any such action may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effected by mailing a copy of such process by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such party at its or his address as provided in Section 11, and (d) agrees that nothing in the Agreement shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.
8. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains the full and complete understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous written or oral understandings or agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof. No modification of this Agreement shall be binding unless made in writing and signed by the party sought to be charged.
9. BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives.
10. WAIVER; SEVERABILITY. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. If any provision of this Agreement, or part thereof, shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and not in any way affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if such invalid or unenforceable provision, or part thereof, had been reformed, and any court of competent jurisdiction is authorized to so reform such invalid or unenforceable provision, so that it would be valid, legal and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
11. NOTICES; DELIVERIES. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be given or made pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been duly given or made for all purposes when hand delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, or overnight mail or courier as follows:

12. COUNTERPARTS; HEADINGS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one agreement. The headings contained in this Agreement are solely for the convenience of the parties, and are not intended to and do not limit, construe or modify any of the terms and conditions hereof.
13. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each Releasor acknowledges and agrees that, in the event either shall violate any of the restrictions of Section 3 hereof, the Company will be without an adequate remedy at law and will therefore be entitled to enforce such restrictions by temporary or permanent injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of proving damages or posting a bond or other security and without prejudice to any other rights and/or remedies which it may have at law or in equity. Each Releasor further acknowledges and agrees that any such relief may be sought in, and for such purpose each Releasor consents to the jurisdiction of, the courts of the State of New York.

15. REPRESENTATION BY COUNSEL; INTERPRETATION. Each party acknowledges that it or he has been represented by counsel, or has been afforded the opportunity to be represented by counsel, in connection with this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule or law or any legal decision that would require the interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived by the parties. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to give effect to the intent of the parties hereto.
