the period of time following the effective date of termination equal to twelve
(12) months plus 1 month for every year of service up to a maximum of 24
months.
d. If
Company terminates Employee's employment without Cause, if Employee terminates

or Total Disability, or if employment is terminated due to a Control Transfer,
Employee shall also be entitled to receive any Incentive Compensation, as set

10. Appointed
Positions. Upon Company's request at any time, Employee will
submit an appropriate resignation of any position (e.g., as a director
of an outside company but excluding the offices included in this Agreement) for
which Employee has been appointed with employment by Company.
11. Surrender of
Records. Employee agrees that on termination of employment for
any cause whatsoever Employee will surrender to Company in good condition any
records, including physical and electronic data, kept by him containing
information with regard to the business of Company and its Affiliates, as well
as other records belonging to Company. Employee will also return any
keys, equipments, identification or credit cards, or other property belonging to
Company or its Affiliates. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
"Affiliate"
means any entity currently existing or subsequently organized or formed that
directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control
with Company, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise.
12. Garden

reason, Company may require that Employee take a period of "garden leave" which

periods). The period of garden leave shall be six (6) months or such
lesser period as is agreed by Employee and Company. During the garden
leave period, Employee will continue to receive his Base Salary payments and
health insurance benefits, but Employee is prohibited from commencing employment

Employee is receiving garden leave payments and benefits under this Section,
post-termination salary continuation payments or benefits will be additionally

9(c) above, it
being the intent that Employee has the rights to both sets of such payments if
applicable.

Information. Employee acknowledges that (i) Company has
developed and will develop a valuable and extensive trade of its products and
product lines; (ii) the methods of doing business, business connections,
business plans, marketing and sales strategy, lists of clients and prospective
clients and relationships with business partners and advisers, lenders and
financing sources of Company and its Affiliates are valuable, special and unique
assets which have been and will be established and maintained at great expense;
(iii) by virtue of his employment, Employee will become familiar with the
manner, methods, trade secrets and sensitive, confidential and proprietary
information pertaining to the businesses conducted by Company and its
Affiliates, including sales volume and strategy, pricing, business plans,
budgets, plans for future products, client data, information relating to
relationships between Company and other entities (including licenses and other
contracts, sales and marketing information and strategy, number and location of
sales representatives, and names and lists of Company's clients, prospective
clients, business partners and advisers, lenders and financing sources); and
(iv) by virtue of such employment, Employee will become personally acquainted
with the clients, prospective clients, business partners and advisers, lenders,
financing sources, and other trade secrets and confidential and proprietary
information of Company and its Affiliates. Employee will not, during
or after the Term, either use or disclose any Company trade secrets or
confidential and proprietary information, including any lists or information, or
any part thereof, to any person or entity for any reason or purpose
whatsoever. In the event of a breach or a threatened breach by
Employee of the provisions of this Section 13, Company
shall be entitled to seek an injunction, without requirement of bond or other
security, restraining Employee from disclosing, in whole or in part, the trade
secrets and confidential information of Company or its Affiliates, or from
rendering any services to any person or entity to whom disclosure has been
made. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Company from
pursing any other remedies available to Company for such breach or threatened
breach, including the recovery of damages from Employee. In
construing and applying this Agreement, confidential lists and information shall
include both written information, information in electronic form, information
retained in Employee's memory, with confidential or proprietary information of
third parties that Company is required to keep confidential. The
parties further acknowledge that the confidential information referred to in
this paragraph pertains to information and knowledge acquired by Employee as a
result of his employment with Company. This provision shall survive
the termination of this Agreement.

14. Nonsolicitation. Due
to Employee's access to Company's trade secrets and competitively sensitive and
confidential business information as set forth above, as additional
consideration for Company's employment of Employee and as a condition of such
employment by Company, Employee expressly covenants that:
a. Nonsolicitation. Employee
agrees that during employment with Company and for a period of twenty-four (24)
months following termination of employment by Company for any reason, Employee
will not directly or indirectly either individually, or as a principal, partner,
broker, sales representative, agent, employee, employer, consultant,
shareholder, joint venturer, or investor, or as a director or officer of any
corporation or association, or in any other manner or capacity whatsoever (i)
induce or attempt to induce, or cause any employee, officer or director of
Company or any of its Affiliates to leave the employ of Company or any of its
Affiliates, or in any way materially interfere with the relationship between
Company or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any such employee,
officer or director, on the other hand, or (ii) induce, or attempt to induce,
any customer, salesperson, distributor, supplier, vendor, manufacturer,
representative, agent, jobber, licensee or other person transacting business
with Company or any of its Affiliates to reduce or cease doing business with
Company or any of its Affiliates, or in any way to interfere with the
relationship between any such customer, salesperson, distributor, supplier,
vendor, manufacturer, representative, agent, jobber, licensee or business
relation, on the one hand, and Company or any of its Affiliates, on the other
hand.
b. Remedies. Employee
acknowledges and agrees that breach of any provisions of this Section 14 may cause
Company or its Affiliates to suffer harm that cannot be adequately compensated
by money damages; therefore, it is agreed that, in the event Employee breaches
or it appears that Employee may breach any provision of this Section 14, Company
or its Affiliates shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief (including
obtaining a temporary restraining order or a decree of specific
performance). In addition, Company or its Affiliates may seek
whatever and all other relief that it may be entitled to at law or in
equity. Employee agrees that duration of time restrictions under this
Section shall be extended by the duration of any period during which Employee is
in violation or breach of any provision of this Section.

Agreement (Xxxxxx)

c. Nature of
Business. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the terms of
Employee's employment with Company include personal contact with clients,
business partners, lenders and financing sources, knowledge of client and
financing requirements related to Company's business, and knowledge of trade
secrets and other proprietary information of Company and its
Affiliates. Employee stipulates and agrees that the nonsolicitation
provisions herein are reasonable because of the nature of the business of
Company and its Affiliates which entails competitors who can effectively compete
with Company and its Affiliates regardless of geographical location within the
United States. Employee acknowledges that these restrictions are a
condition of employment and that Employee was given notice of these restrictions
at least two (2) weeks before the initial employment of Employee.
d. Separability. It
is not intended that these covenants unreasonably restrain Employee, either as
to geographic area or as to time. In the event any arbitrator or
court of competent jurisdiction should construe any covenant herein as unfair,
unreasonable or excessive, it shall deem the covenant applicable only for such
time and over such geographic area as in the court's view serves to reasonably
protect and promote the lawful interest of company and its Affiliates and to
render the covenant valid and enforceable.
e. Survival. This
Section 14
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
15. Non-Interference and
Non-Disparagement. During the Term and for a period of
twenty-four (24) months after, Employee may not interfere with business
relationships between Company or its Affiliates and any of their respective
clients, customers, business partners or advisers, lenders or financing
sources. During the Term and at all times thereafter, neither
Employee nor Company may disparage the other or its Affiliates in any
way.
16. Work Made for
Hire. All techniques, processes, products, manuals, documents,
materials, ideas and confidential information developed by Employee while
employed by Company shall be considered work made for hire and shall, unless
specifically otherwise agreed upon in writing by Company prior to such
development, become the sole and exclusive property of Company. This
Section 16 shall not apply to any developments made by Employee if Employee made
such developments outside of normal business hours of Company without using any
confidential or proprietary information of Company, and such developments do not
relate to the primary business of the Company at the time of their
development.
17. Disclosure. Employee
agrees to reveal the terms of this Agreement relating to nonsolicitation to any
future employer or potential employer of Employee who has made an offer of
employment to Employee and authorizes Company, at its election, to make such
disclosure.
18. Notice. Any
notice permitted or required to be given under this Agreement shall be in
writing and be deemed given upon the date of personal delivery (including
delivery by courier) or upon deposit in the United States mail, postage fully
prepaid, certified and return receipt requested, addressed to the parties at the

provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
from the party not prevailing, in addition to other relief that may be provided
by law, an amount determined reasonable as attorney fees at trial and on any
