5. NON-COMPETITION AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES.
(a) Non-Competition. The Consultant understands that the
Company is in the business of developing and licensing finger print
identification technologies, and distributing products incorporating such
technologies, to original equipment manufacturers and end users. Except for
promoting and selling the Company's products and services, the Consultant agrees
that during the period of his employment hereunder and for a period of one (1)
year thereafter the Consultant will not directly or indirectly: (i) market, sell
or perform services such as are offered or conducted by the Company, its
affiliates and subsidiaries during the period of his employment, to any customer
or client of the Company or "Prospective Customer" or client of the Company; or
(ii) engage, directly or indirectly, whether as principal or as agent, officer,
director, consultant, shareholder, or otherwise, alone or in association with
any other person, corporation or other entity, in any "Competing Business"
unless approved in writing by the Company. For the purpose of this Section 5(a)
"Prospective Customer" shall mean any person with whom the Company has engaged
in any discussion or negotiation regarding the use of the Company's services.
For purposes of this Section 5(a), the term "shareholder" shall exclude any
interest owned by Employer in a public company to the extent the Employer owns
less than ten percent (10%) of any such company's outstanding common stock. For
the further purposes of this Agreement, the term "Competing Business", shall
mean any person, corporation or other entity developing and/or licensing finger
print identification or verification technologies or distributing products
incorporating such technologies to original equipment manufacturers and end
users at the time of such termination or non-renewal. Due to the nature of the
markets served, and the technology and products to be developed and marketed by
the Company which are intended to be available on an International basis, the
restrictions set forth in this Section 5(a) can not be limited to a specific
geographic area within the United States or the rest of the World.
(b) Non-Solicitation. The Consultant agrees that during the
period of this Agreement hereunder and for a period of one (1) year thereafter,
the Consultant will not request or otherwise attempt to induce or influence,
directly or indirectly, any present customer, distributor or supplier, or
Prospective Customer, distributor or supplier, of the Company, or other persons
sharing a
business relationship with the Company to cancel, to limit or postpone their
business with the Company, or otherwise take action which might be to the
material disadvantage of the Company. The Consultant agrees that during the
period of this Agreement hereunder and for a period of one (1) year thereafter,
Consultant will not hire or solicit for employment, directly or indirectly, or
induce or actively attempt to influence, hire or solicit, any consultant, agent,
officer, director, contractor, consultant or other business associate of the
Company to terminate his or her employment or discontinue such person's
consultant, contractor or other business association with the Company.
(c) Scope. The parties hereto agree that, due to the nature of
the Company's business, the duration and scope of the non-competition and
non-solicitation provisions set forth above are reasonable. In the event that
any court determines that the duration or the geographic scope, or both, are
unreasonable and that such provisions are to that extent unenforceable, the
parties hereto agree that such provisions shall remain in full force and effect
for the greatest time period and in the greatest area that would not render it
unenforceable. The parties intend that the non-competition and non-solicitation
provisions herein shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for
each and every county of each and every state of the United States of America
and each and every political subdivision of each and every country outside the
United States of America where this provision is intended to be effective. The
Consultant agrees that damages are an inadequate remedy for any breach of such
provisions and that the Company, shall, whether or not it is pursuing any
potential remedies at law, be entitled to seek in any court of competent
jurisdiction, equitable relief in the form of preliminary and permanent
injunctions without bond or other security upon any actual or threatened breach
of either of these competition provisions. If the Consultant shall violate this
Section 5, the duration of this Section 5 automatically shall be extended as
against the Consultant for a period equal to the period during which the
Consultant shall have been in violation of this Section 5. The covenants
contained in this Section 5 are deemed to be material and the Company is
entering into this Agreement relying on such covenants.
6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE CONSULTANT. The Consultant
hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows: (i) The Consultant has
the legal capacity and unrestricted right to execute and deliver this Agreement
and to perform all of his obligations hereunder; (ii) the execution and delivery
of this Agreement by the Consultant and the performance of his obligations
hereunder will not violate or be in conflict with any fiduciary or other
duty, instrument, agreement, document, arrangement, or other understanding to
which Consultant is a party or by which he is or may be bound or subject; and
(iii) Except as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto, the Consultant is not a
party to any instrument, agreement, document, arrangement, including, but not
limited to, invention assignment agreement, confidential information agreement,
non-competition agreement, non-solicitation agreement, or other understanding
with any person (other than the Company) requiring or restricting the use or
disclosure of any confidential information or the provision of any employment,
consulting or other services.
7. DISCLOSURE OF INNOVATIONS; ASSIGNMENT OF OWNERSHIP OF INNOVATIONS;
PROTECTION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Consultant hereby represents and
warrants to the Company that Consultant understands that the Company is in the
business of developing and licensing finger print identification technologies,
and distributing products incorporating such technologies, to original equipment
manufacturers and end users and that Consultant may have access to or acquire
information with respect to Confidential Information (as defined below),
including software, processes and methods, development tools, scientific,
technical and/or business innovations.
(a) Disclosure of Innovations. Consultant agrees to disclose
in writing to the Company all inventions, improvements and other innovations
pertaining to the Companies business of developing and licensing finger print
identification technologies, and distributing products incorporating such
technologies, to original equipment manufacturers and end users that Consultant
may make, conceive, develop or reduce to practice, alone or jointly with others,
during the term of Consultant's engagement under this Agreement with the
Company, whether or not they are eligible for patent, copyright, trademark,
trade secret or other legal protection ("Innovations"). Examples of Innovations
shall include, but are not limited to, discoveries, research, inventions,
formulas, techniques, processes, know-how, marketing plans, new product plans,
production processes, advertising, packaging and marketing techniques and
improvements to computer hardware or software.
(b) Assignment of Ownership of Innovations. Consultant agrees
that all Innovations required to be disclosed pursuant to Section 7(a) herein
will be the sole and exclusive property of the Company and Consultant hereby
assigns all of Consultant's rights, title or interest in the Innovations and all
related patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, rights of priority and
other proprietary rights to the Company. At the Company's request and expense,
during and after the period of Consultant's employment and consulting with the
Company, Consultant will assist and cooperate with the Company in all respects
and will execute documents, and, subject to Consultant's reasonable
availability, give testimony and take further acts requested by the Company to
obtain, maintain, perfect and enforce for the Company patent, copyright,
trademark, trade secret and other legal protection for the Innovations.
Consultant hereby appoints an authorized officer of the Company as Consultant's
attorney-in-fact to execute documents on his behalf for this purpose. Consultant
has attached hereto as Exhibit D a list of Innovations as of the date hereof
which belong to Consultant and which are not assigned to the Company hereunder
(the "Prior Innovations"), or, if no such list is attached, Consultant
represents that there are no Prior Innovations.
(c) Protection of Confidential Information of the Company.
Consultant understands that Consultant's work as a consultant of the Company
creates a relationship of trust and confidence between Consultant and the
Company. During and after the period of Consultant's engagement under this
Agreement with the Company, Consultant will not use or disclose or allow anyone
else to use or disclose any "Confidential Information" (as defined below)
relating to the Company, its products, services, suppliers or customers except
as may be necessary in the performance of Consultant's work for the Company or
as may be specifically authorized in advance by appropriate officers of the
Company. "Confidential Information" shall include, but not be limited to,
information consisting of research and development, patents, trademarks and
copyrights and applications thereto, technical information, computer programs,

designs, drawings, specifications, concepts, data, reports, processes,
techniques, documentation, pricing, marketing plans, customer and prospect
lists, trade secrets, financial information, salaries, business affairs,
suppliers, profits, markets, sales strategies, forecasts, consultant information
and any other information not available to the general public, whether written
or oral, which Consultant knows or has reason to know the Company would like to
treat as confidential for any purpose, such as maintaining a competitive
advantage or avoiding undesirable publicity. Consultant will keep Confidential
Information secret and will not allow any unauthorized use of the same, whether
or not any document containing it is marked as confidential. These restrictions,
however, will not apply to Confidential Information that has become known to the
public generally through no fault or breach of Consultant or that the Company
regularly gives to third parties without restriction on use or disclosure.
8. WORK MADE FOR HIRE.
(a) Work Made For Hire. Consultant further recognizes and
understands that Consultant's services provided to the Company may include the
preparation of materials, including without limitation written or graphic
materials, and that any such materials conceived or written by Consultant shall
be done as "work made for hire" as defined and used in the Copyright Act of
1976, 17 U.S.C. xx.xx. 1 et seq. In the event of publication of such materials,
Consultant understands that since the work is a "work made for hire", the
Company will
solely retain and own all rights in said materials, including right of
copyright. In the event that any of such works shall be deemed by a court of
competent jurisdiction not to be a "work made for hire," this Agreement shall
operate as an irrevocable assignment by Consultant to the Company of all right,
title and interest in and to such works, including, without limitation, all
worldwide copyright interests therein, in perpetuity. The fact that such
copyrightable works are created by Consultant outside of the Company's
facilities or other than during Consultant's working hours with the Company
shall not diminish the Company's right with respect to such works which
otherwise fall within this paragraph. Consultant agrees to execute and deliver
to the Company such further instruments or documents as may be requested by the
Company in order to effectuate the purposes of this paragraph.
(b) Disclosure of Works and Inventions/Assignment of Patents.
In consideration of the promises set forth herein, Consultant agrees to disclose
promptly to the Company, or to such person whom the Company may expressly
designate for this specific purpose (its "Designee"), any and all works,
inventions, discoveries and improvements authored, conceived or made by
Consultant during the period of engagement under this Agreement which are solely
related to the Company's current business, and Consultant hereby assigns and
agrees to assign all of Consultant's interest in the foregoing to the Company or
to its Designee. Consultant agrees that, whenever he is requested to do so by
the Company, Consultant shall execute any and all applications, assignments or
other instruments which the Company shall deem necessary to apply for and obtain
Letters Patent or Copyrights of the United States or any foreign country or to
otherwise protect the Company's interest therein.
9. COMPANY PROPERTY. All records, files, lists, including computer
generated lists, drawings, software, documents, equipment, models, binaries,
object modules, libraries, source code and similar items relating to the
Company's business that the Consultant shall prepare or receive from the Company
and all Confidential Information shall remain the Company's sole and exclusive
property ("Company Business Property"). Upon termination of this Agreement, the
Consultant shall promptly return to the Company all property of the Company in
his possession, including Company Business Property except for equipment and
tools that are pre-approved in writing by the Company that are to be utilized by
Consultant to perform any future support services to the Company. The Consultant
further represents that he will not copy or cause to be copied, print out, or
cause to be printed out any Company Business Property other than as specifically
authorized and required in the performance of the Consultant's duties. The
Consultant additionally represents that, upon termination of his engagement
under this Agreement with the Company, he will not retain in his possession any
such Company Business Property.
10. COOPERATION. The Consultant agrees that both during and after his
engagement under this Agreement that he shall, at the request of the Company,
render all assistance and perform all lawful acts that the Company considers
necessary or advisable in connection with any litigation involving the Company
or any director, officer, consultant, shareholder, agent, representative,
consultant, client, or vendor of the Company provided that the Company shall
compensate Consultant for time and expenses associated with said Cooperation.
11. DISPUTE SETTLEMENT PROCEDURE/WAIVER OF RIGHTS. The Consultant and
the Company each agree that, in the event either party (or its representatives,
successors or assigns) brings an action in a court of competent jurisdiction
relating to the Consultant's recruitment, engagement of, or termination of
services to the Company, each party in such action agrees to waive his, her, or
its right to a trial by jury, and further agrees that no demand, request, or
motion will be made for trial by jury.
The parties hereto further agree that, in the event that either seeks
relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for a dispute covered by this
Agreement, any other Agreement between the Consultant and the Company or which
relates to the Consultant's recruitment, engagement of, or termination of
services provided to the Company, the defendant or third-party defendant in such
action may, at any time within sixty (60) days of the service of the complaint,
third-party complaint or cross-claim upon such party, at his, her or its option,
require all or part of the dispute to be arbitrated by one arbitrator in
accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The parties
agree that the option to arbitrate any dispute is governed by the Federal
Arbitration Act. The parties understand and agree that, if the other party
exercises his, her or its option, any dispute arbitrated will be heard solely by
the arbitrator, and not by a court. Judgment upon the award rendered, however,
may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The cost of such
arbitration shall be borne equally by the parties.
This dispute resolution agreement will cover all matters directly or
indirectly related to the Consultant's recruitment, engagement of or termination
of services provided to the Company; including, but not limited to, claims
involving laws against discrimination whether brought under federal and/or state
law and/or local law, and/or claims involving co-consultants or employees but
excluding Worker's Compensation Claims. Nothing contained in this Section 11
shall limit the right of the Company to enforce by court injunction or other
equitable relief the Consultant's obligations under Sections 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 and
11 hereof.
The right to a trial, and to a trial by jury, is of value.
In the event the Consultant initiates an action against the Company for
non-payment under this Agreement, the Consultant, if he recovers pursuant to
such action, shall be entitled to also recover his attorney's fees reasonably
necessary to maintain such action.
THE CONSULTANT MAY WISH TO CONSULT AN ATTORNEY PRIOR TO
SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT. IF SO, THE CONSULTANT SHOULD TAKE A
COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH HIM TO AN ATTORNEY.
12. INDEMNIFICATION. The Company shall indemnify Consultant and hold
the Consultant harmless against any and all costs, expenses and liabilities for
any claims, demands, suits, or any other actions taken against the Consultant
while Consultant was acting on behalf of the Company as a Consultant, provided
that Consultant was only performing duties or actions authorized by the Company,
and the Company specifically agrees to pay all attorney fees incurred by the
Consultant in connection with any such claim.
13. CHOICE OF LAW AND JURISDICTION. This Agreement shall be construed,
interpreted and the rights of the parties determined in accordance with the laws
of the State of Minnesota. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably
consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of the
State of Minnesota, and of the United States District Court for the District of
Minnesota in connection with any suit, action, or other proceeding concerning
this Agreement or enforcement of Sections 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 hereof. The
Consultant waives and agrees not to assert any defense that the court lacks
jurisdiction, venue is improper, inconvenient forum or otherwise. The Consultant
waives the right to a jury trial and agrees to accept service of process by
certified mail at the Consultant's last known address.
14. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Neither this Agreement, nor any of the
Consultant's rights, powers, duties or obligations hereunder, may be assigned by
the Consultant. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the Consultant and his heirs and legal representatives and the Company and its
successors. Successors of the Company shall include, without limitation, any
company or companies acquiring, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all
of the assets of the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase, lease
or otherwise. Any such successor referred to in this paragraph shall thereafter
be deemed "the Company" for the purpose hereof. All covenants and restrictions
upon the Consultant hereunder, including, but not limited to Sections 5, 7, 8,
9, 10 and 11 hereof, are specifically assignable by the Company.
15. WAIVER. Any waiver or consent from the Company with respect to any
term or provision of this Agreement or any other aspect of the Consultant's
conduct shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given and shall not be deemed, regardless of frequency given,
to be a further or continuing waiver or consent. The failure or delay of the
Company at any time or times to require performance of, or to exercise any of
its powers, rights or remedies with respect to any term or provision of this
Agreement or any other aspect of the Consultant's conduct in no manner (except
as otherwise expressly provided herein) shall affect the Company's right at a
later time to enforce any such term or provision.
16. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications
hereunder must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if

provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and

18. ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND AMENDMENTS. This Agreement, including all
Exhibits which shall form parts hereof, contains the entire agreement of the
parties concerning the Consultant's engagement and all promises,
representations, understandings, arrangements and prior agreements on such
subject are merged herein and superseded hereby. The provisions of this
Agreement may not be amended, modified, repealed, waived, extended or discharged
except by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement
of any amendment, modification, repeal, waiver, extension or discharge is
sought. No person acting other than pursuant to a resolution of the Board of
Directors shall have authority on behalf of the Company to agree to amend,
modify, repeal, waive, extend or discharge any provision of this Agreement or
anything in reference thereto or to exercise any of the Company's rights to
terminate or to fail to extend this Agreement.
19. SURVIVAL. The Consultant's obligations under Paragraphs 5, 7, 8, 9,
10 and 11 shall survive and continue pursuant to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement following any termination.
20. UNDERSTANDING. The Consultant represents and agrees that he fully
understands his rights to discuss all aspects of this Agreement with his private
attorney, that to the extent he desires, he availed himself of this right, that
he has carefully read and fully understands all of the provisions of the
Agreement, that he is competent to execute this Agreement, that his decision to
execute this Agreement has not been obtained by any duress and that he freely
and voluntarily enters into this Agreement, and that he has read this document
in its entirety and fully understands the meaning, intent, and consequences of

together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
22. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that in
the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by either Party,
the non-breaching Party may suffer irreparable harm and monetary damages alone
would not adequately compensate the Party. Accordingly, the non-breaching Party
will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be
executed and attested by its duly authorized officers, and the Consultant has
set his hand, all as of the day and year first above written.
