reason or no reason, with or without cause, the Company shall have the right and
option to purchase from the Employee or his personal representative, as the case
may be, for the sum of $0.01 per Share, up to, but not exceeding, the aggregate

entitled to ownership free and clear of such Repurchase Option.
All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or

5. Confidential Information - Except as permitted or directed by the Company's
Board of Directors, during the term of Employee's engagement or at any time
thereafter, the Employee shall not divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone
or use in any way (other than in the ordinary course of the business of the
Company) any confidential or secret knowledge or information of the Company that
the Employee has acquired or become acquainted with or will acquire or become
acquainted with prior to the termination of the period of Employee's engagement
by the Company (including engagement by the Company or any affiliated companies
prior to the date of this Agreement) whether developed by Employee self/herself
or by others, concerning any trade secrets, confidential or secret designs,
processes, formulae, plans, devices or material (whether or not patented or
patentable) directly or indirectly useful in any aspect of the business of the
Company, any customer or supplier lists of the Company, any confidential or
secret development or research work of the Company, or any other confidential
information or secret aspects of the business of the Company. The Employee
acknowledges that the above-described knowledge or information constitutes a
unique and valuable asset of the Company and represents a substantial investment
of time and expense by the Company, and that any disclosure or other use of such
knowledge or information other than for the sole benefit of the Company would be
wrongful and would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Both during and after
the term of Employee's engagement, the Employee will refrain from any acts or
omissions that would reduce the value of such knowledge or information to the
Company. The foregoing obligations of confidentiality shall not apply to any
knowledge or information that is now published and publicly available or which
subsequently becomes generally publicly known in the form in which it was
obtained from the Company, other than as a direct or indirect result of the
breach of this Agreement by the Employee.

6. Ventures - If, during the term of Employee's engagement the Employee is
engaged in or associated with the planning or implementing of any project,

compensation in connection therewith other than the compensation to be paid to
the Employee as provided in this Agreement.

Agreement, whether or not during regular working hours, relating either directly
or significantly and indirectly to the business, products, practices or
techniques of the Company ("Developments"). The Employee, to the extent that

the Developments are the property of the Company and agrees to assign and hereby
assigns to the Company any and all of the Employee's right, title and interest
in and to any and all of the Developments ("Assignment"). During the period

the Company and ending one year after termination of the Employee's engagement

such materials in any and all countries, except that Employee shall be
compensated at no less that a rate of $250 per hour for Employee's time for
compliance with this provision following termination or expiration of this
Agreement. Where applicable, works of authorship created by the Employee for the
Company in performing Employee's responsibilities under this Agreement shall be
