3. | Relationship of the Parties. Notwithstanding any provision hereof, for all purposes of this Agreement each party shall be and act as an independent contractor and not as partner, joint venture, or agent of the other and shall not bind nor attempt to bind the other to any contract. Consultant is an independent contractor and is solely responsible for all taxes, withholdings, and other statutory or contractual obligations of any sort, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation insurance.

6. | Confidential Information. Consultant agrees that all inventions and all other business, technical and financial information Consultant develops, learns or obtains during the period over which he is or is supposed to be providing the Services that relate to Company or the business or demonstrably anticipated business of Company in connection with the Services or that are received by or for Company in confidence, constitute “Confidential Information.” Consultant will hold in confidence and not disclose without prior written consent or, except in performing the Services, use any Confidential Information.

8. | Survival. Because any breach of Section 6 will cause irreparable harm to Company for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, Company reserves the right to seek injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any and all other remedies available in equity or at law. In any action or proceeding to enforce any rights under this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorney’s fees. The obligations set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement. Company may communicate Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement to any other (or potential) Company or employer of Consultant. | |
9. | Miscellaneous. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights. No changes or modifications or waivers to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of law’s provisions thereof. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorney’s fees.
