ARTICLE 6
TERMINATION
6.1 Termination for Cause. Without limiting the generality
of Section 6.2, the Company shall have the right to terminate
Brincko's and Brincko Associates' engagement without further
obligation or liability to either of them except as provided
herein upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following
events, which events shall be deemed termination for cause.
6.1.1 Failure to Perform Duties. If Brincko continually
neglects to perform the material duties of his engagement
under this Agreement in a professional and businesslike manner
after having received written notice specifying such failure
to perform with particularity and after having had a
reasonable opportunity (not less than fifteen (15) days) to
perform.
6.1.2 Willful Breach. If Brincko willfully commits a
material breach of this Agreement or a material willful breach
of his fiduciary duty to the Company.
6.1.3 Wrongful Acts. If Brincko is convicted of a felony
involving acts of moral turpitude or commits fraud,
embezzlement or other acts of material misconduct against the
Company that would make the continuance of his engagement by
the Company materially detrimental to the Company.
6.2 Termination Without Cause. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, the Company shall have the right to
terminate Brincko's engagement under this Agreement at any
time without cause by giving written notice of such
termination to Brincko.
6.3 Termination by Brincko for Good Reason. Brincko may
terminate his employment under this Agreement on thirty (30)
days prior notice to the Company for good reason. For
purposes of this Agreement, "good reason" shall mean and be
limited to (a) a material breach of this Agreement by the
Company (including without limitation any material reduction
in the authority or duties of Brincko) or failure to pay the
invoices of Brincko Associates within ten (10) days of
submission, and the failure of the Company to remedy any such
breach within ten (10) days after written notice (or as soon
thereafter as practicable so long as it commences effectuation
of such remedy within such time period and diligently pursues
such remedy to completion as soon as practicable); or (b) a
bankruptcy filing by or against the Company and failure by the
Bankruptcy Court to approve this Agreement within sixty (60)
days of such filing.
6.4 Effectiveness on Notice. Any termination under this
Section 6 shall be effective upon receipt of written notice by
Brincko or the Company, as the case may be, of such
termination or upon such other later date as may be provided
herein or specified by the Company or Brincko in the notice
(the "Termination Date"), except as otherwise provided in this
Section 6.
6.5 Effect of Termination.
6.5.1 Payment of Compensation and Expenses Upon
Termination. If the Term of this Agreement is terminated, all
benefits provided to Brincko by the Company hereunder shall
thereupon cease and the Company shall pay or cause to be paid
to Brincko and Brincko Associates all accrued but unpaid
compensation and vacation benefits. In addition, promptly
upon submission by Brincko and Brincko Associates of their
unpaid expenses incurred prior to the Termination Date and
owing to Brincko or Brincko Associates pursuant to Article 5,
reimbursement for such expenses shall be made. If the Term of
the Agreement is terminated for "cause," Brincko shall not be
entitled to receive any payments other than as specified in
this Section 6.5.1, provided that Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx
Associates may continue to exercise any options held by them.
6.5.2 Termination Without Cause or Termination by Brincko
for Good Reason. If the Company terminates Brincko without
cause or Brincko or Brincko Associates terminates for good
reason, Brincko Associates shall be entitled to receive an
amount equal to six times the Retainer amount (the "Severance
Benefit"), payable in a lump sum.
The Company agrees that Brincko and Brincko Associates
have been unable to pursue alternative, profitable
opportunities in order to take on this engagement and that
they would suffer substantial financial damage if Brincko or
the Company were to exercise their respective rights of
termination hereunder and that the amount of such damages
would be difficult if not impossible to calculate accurately.
Accordingly, the parties agree that the amount established
hereunder are liquidated damages reasonable under the
circumstances at the time of execution of this Agreement.
6.6 Exercisability of Options. As provided in the stock
option agreements, all options will terminate on the earlier
of (a) the expiration of the ten (10) year term of such
options, or (b) three (3) years after the termination of
Brincko's engagement with the Company, regardless of the cause
of such termination, except that, in the event of a
termination for "Cause," other than as provided in Section
6.1.3, all options will terminate on the earlier of (I) the
expiration of the ten (10) year term of such options, or (II)
one year after the termination. Upon termination under
Section 6.1.3, all options shall terminate immediately.
ARTICLE 7
CONFIDENTIALITY
7.1 Nondisclosure of Confidential Material. In the
performance of their duties, Brincko and Brincko Associates
may have access to confidential records, including, but not
limited to, development, marketing, organizational, financial,
managerial, administrative and sales information, data,
specifications and processes presently owned or at any time
hereafter developed or used by Company or its agents or
consultants that is not otherwise part of the public domain
(collectively, the "Confidential Material"). All such
Confidential Material is considered secret and is disclosed to
Brincko and Brincko Associates in confidence. Brincko and
Brincko Associates acknowledge that the Confidential Material
constitutes proprietary information of Company which draws
independent economic value, actual or potential, from not
being generally known to the public or to other persons who
could obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and
that Company has taken efforts reasonable under the
circumstances, of which this Section 7.1 is an example, to
maintain its secrecy. Except in the performance of their
duties to Company or as required by a court order, Brincko and
Brincko Associates shall not, directly or indirectly for any
reason whatsoever, disclose, divulge, communicate, use or
otherwise disclose any such Confidential Material, unless such
Confidential Material ceases to be confidential because it has
become part of the public domain (not due to a breach by
Brincko and Brincko Associates of their obligations
hereunder). Brincko and Brincko Associates shall also take
all reasonable actions appropriate to maintain the secrecy of
all Confidential Information. All records, lists, memoranda,
correspondence, reports, manuals, files, drawings, documents,
equipment, and other tangible items (including computer
software), wherever located, incorporating the Confidential
Material, which Brincko and Brincko Associates shall prepare,
use or encounter, shall be and remain Company's sole and
exclusive property and shall be included in the Confidential
Material. Upon termination of this Agreement, or whenever
requested by Company, Brincko and Brincko Associates shall
promptly deliver to Company any and all of the Confidential
Material, not previously delivered to Company, that is in the
possession or under the control of Brincko or Brincko
Associates .
7.2 Assignment of Intellectual Property Rights. Any ideas,
processes, know-how, copyrightable works, maskworks, trade or
service marks, trade secrets, inventions, developments,
discoveries, improvements and other matters that may be
protected by intellectual property rights, that relate to
Company's business and are the results of Brincko's efforts or
Brincko Associates' efforts during the Term (collectively, the
"Brincko Work Product"), whether conceived or developed alone
or with others, and whether or not conceived during the
regular working hours of Company, shall be deemed works made
for hire and are the property of Company. In the event that
for whatever reason such Brincko Work Product shall not be
deemed a work made for hire, Brincko and Brincko Associates
agree that such Brincko Work Product shall become the sole and
exclusive property of Company, and Brincko and Brincko
Associates hereby assign to Company their entire right, title
and interest in and to each and every patent, copyright, trade
or service xxxx (including any attendant goodwill), trade
secret or other intellectual property right embodied in
Brincko Work Product. Company shall also have the right, in
its sole discretion to keep any and all of Brincko Work
Product as Company's Confidential Material. The foregoing
work made for hire and assignment provisions are and shall be
in consideration of this agreement of employment by Company,
and no further consideration is or shall be provided to
Brincko or Brincko Associates by Company with respect to these
provisions. Brincko and Brincko Associates agree to execute
any assignment documents Company may require confirming
Company's ownership of any of Brincko Work Product. Brincko
and Brincko Associates also waive any and all moral rights
with respect to any such works, including without limitation
any and all rights of identification of authorship and/or
rights of approval, restriction or limitation on use or
subsequent modifications. Brincko and Brincko Associates
promptly will disclose to Company any Brincko Work Product.
7.3 No Unfair Competition After Termination of Agreement.
Brincko and Brincko Associates hereby acknowledge that the
sale or unauthorized use or disclosure of any of Company's
Confidential Material obtained by Brincko or Brincko
Associates by any means whatsoever, at any time before, during
or after the Term shall constitute unfair competition.
Brincko and Brincko Associates shall not engage in any unfair
competition with Company either during the Term or at any time
thereafter.
7.4 Remedies for Breach. Brincko and Brincko Associates
agree that money damages will not be a sufficient remedy for
any breach of the obligations under this Article 7 and that
the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief and to
specific performance as remedies for any such breach. Brincko
and Brincko Associates agree that the Company shall be
entitled to such relief, including temporary restraining
orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions,
without the necessity of proving actual damages and without
the necessity of posting a bond or making any undertaking in
connection therewith. Any such requirement of a bond or
undertaking is hereby waived by Brincko and Brincko Associates
and Brincko and Brincko Associates acknowledge that in the
absence of such a waiver, a bond or undertaking might
otherwise be required by the court. Such remedies shall not
be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for any breach of the
obligations in this Article 7, but shall be in addition to all
other remedies available at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 8
ARBITRATION
8.1 General. Except for a claim for injunctive relief under
Section 7.4, any controversy, dispute, or claim between the
parties to this Agreement, including any claim arising out of,
in connection with, or in relation to the formation,
interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement shall
be settled exclusively by arbitration, before a single
arbitrator, in accordance with this Article 8 and the then
most applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be
entered by any state or federal court having jurisdiction
thereof. Such arbitration shall be administered by the
American Arbitration Association. Arbitration shall be the
exclusive remedy for determining any such dispute, regardless
of its nature. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party
may in an appropriate matter apply to a court for provisional
relief, including a temporary restraining order or a
preliminary injunction, on the ground that the award to which
the applicant may be entitled in arbitration may be rendered
ineffectual without provisional relief. Unless mutually
agreed by the parties otherwise, any arbitration shall take
place in the City of Los Angeles, California.
8.2 Selection of Arbitrator. In the event the parties are
unable to agree upon an arbitrator, the parties shall select a
single arbitrator from a list of nine arbitrators drawn by the
parties at random from the "Independent" (or "Gold Card") list
of retired judges or, at the option of Brincko, from a list of
nine persons (which shall be retired judges or corporate or
litigation attorneys experienced in Brincko employment
agreements) provided by the office of the American Arbitration
Association having jurisdiction over Los Angeles, California.
If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator from the
list so drawn, then the parties shall each strike names
alternately from the list, with the first to strike being
determined by lot. After each party has used four strikes,
the remaining name on the list shall be the arbitrator. If
such person is unable to serve for any reason, the parties
shall repeat this process until an arbitrator is selected.
8.3 Applicability of Arbitration; Remedial Authority. This
agreement to resolve any disputes by binding arbitration shall
extend to claims against any parent, subsidiary or affiliate
of each party, and, when acting within such capacity, any
officer, director, stockholder, employee or agent of each
party, or of any of the above, and shall apply as well to
claims arising out of state and federal statutes and local
ordinances as well as to claims arising under the common law.
In the event of a dispute subject to this paragraph the
parties shall be entitled to reasonable discovery subject to
the discretion of the arbitrator. The remedial authority of
the arbitrator (which shall include the right to grant
injunctive or other equitable relief) shall be the same as,
but no greater than, would be the remedial power of a court
having jurisdiction over the parties and their dispute. The
arbitrator shall, upon an appropriate motion, dismiss any
claim without an evidentiary hearing if the party bringing the
motion establishes that he or it would be entitled to summary
judgement if the matter had been pursued in court litigation.
In the event of a conflict between the applicable rules of the
American Arbitration Association and these procedures, the
provisions of these procedures shall govern.
8.4 Fees and Costs. Any filing or administrative fees shall
be borne initially by the party requesting arbitration. The
Company shall be responsible for the costs and fees of the
arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prevailing
party in such arbitration, as determined by the arbitrator,
and in any enforcement or other court proceedings, shall be
entitled, to the extent permitted by law, to reimbursement
from the other party for all of the prevailing party's costs
(including but not limited to the arbitrator's compensation),
expenses, and attorneys' fees.
8.5 Award Final and Binding. The arbitrator shall render an
award and written opinion, and the award shall be final and
binding upon the parties. If any of the provisions of this
paragraph, or of this Agreement, are determined to be unlawful
or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, such
determination shall not affect the validity of the remainder
of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be reformed to the
extent necessary to carry out its provisions to the greatest
extent possible and to insure that the resolution of all
conflicts between the parties, including those arising out of
statutory claims, shall be resolved by neutral, binding
arbitration. If a court should find that the arbitration
provisions of this Agreement are not absolutely binding, then
the parties intend any arbitration decision and award to be
fully admissible in evidence in any subsequent action, given
great weight by any finder of fact, and treated as
determinative to the maximum extent permitted by law.

unenforceable, the court or arbitrator finding such invalidity
or unenforceability shall modify or reform this Agreement to

of default shall not operate as a waiver of any other default
or of the same type of default on a future occasion.
