(c) He shall not, while he is employed by the Company and for a period of two years from and after the date that his employment by the Company ceases or terminates for any reason, directly or indirectly, for himself or for any other Person:

7 |
8.2 Independent Agreements. The restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8.1 above (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”) shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision contained in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action, whether predicated upon this Agreement or otherwise, against the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of any of the Restrictive Covenants. The Executive acknowledges that the Company has fully performed all obligations entitling it to the benefits of the Restrictive Covenants, and that the Restrictive Covenants, therefore, are not executory or otherwise subject to rejection under the Bankruptcy Code of 1978.
8.3 Reasonable Restraint. Each of the Company and the Executive acknowledges that each of the Restrictive Covenants is a reasonable and necessary restraint of trade and does not violate any applicable laws, rules or regulations, including without limitation the Xxxxxxx Antitrust Act, the Florida Antitrust Act or the common law. Each of the Company and the Executive acknowledges that the Company conducts its business activities on a worldwide basis and throughout the Territory. Each of the Company and the Executive acknowledges that each of the Restrictive Covenants is supported by valid and legitimate business interests, including without limitation the need to protect the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets (as such terms are hereinafter defined) of the Company and its Affiliates, and the need to protect the substantial relationships of the Company and its Affiliates with their respective employees and independent contractors, current and prospective customers, and current and prospective vendors, and that the period of restriction set forth in Section 8.l(c) above is essential to the full protection of each of such valid and legitimate business interests.
8.4 Severability. Each of the Company and the Executive agrees that each of the Restrictive Covenants is reasonable and proper with respect to duration, geographical scope, and lines of business. If all or any portion of any of the Restrictive Covenants is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy for any reason, then all or such portion of such Restrictive Covenants shall be considered divisible as to duration, geographical scope or lines of business, or may be otherwise narrowed so as to be enforceable. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that a time period, a geographical area or a specified line of business is unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy for any reason, then a shorter period, a smaller geographical area or a narrower line of business, as shall be determined by such court to be reasonable, non-arbitrary and not against public policy, may be enforced against the Executive by the Company.
8.5 Certain Policies. The Executive acknowledges that (a) he has been provided with a copy of the Company’s Policies Regarding Electronic Information Systems, Electronic Mail, Internet and Telephone and Other Communications (the “Policies”), (b) he has read the Policies, (c) he has had an opportunity ask questions of and to seek information regarding the Policies, (d) he understands the Policies and (e) he accepts, consents to and agrees to abide by the Policies.

The Executive assigns to the Company or its assigns all of the Executive’s right, title and interest in and to all developments, inventions and ideas made, conceived or reduced to practice solely or jointly by the Executive while engaging in activities within the scope of his employment by the Company, regardless of whether any of such developments, inventions and ideas qualify as intellectual property or were conceived or developed during business hours. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that all original works of authorship that are made with the scope of his employment by the Company and which can be legally protected are “works for hire” under applicable law. The Executive shall notify the Company of all developments, inventions and ideas and to take all actions necessary to enable the Company to seek legal protection for them.

Immediately upon the termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company for any reason, the Executive shall deliver to the Company all Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and all Company property then in his possession.
9.4 Independent Agreements. The covenants set forth in Section 9.3 above shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision contained in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action, whether predicated upon this Agreement or otherwise, against the Company or any of its Affiliates shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of any of such covenants. The Executive acknowledges that the Company has fully performed all obligations entitling it to the benefit of the covenants set forth in Section 9.3 above, and that such covenants, therefore, are not executory or otherwise subject to rejection under the Bankruptcy Code of 1978.
