or indirectly, any Confidential Information regarding the Company, except
(i) as
in good faith deemed necessary by the Executive to perform his duties hereunder,
(ii) to enforce any rights or defend any claims hereunder or under any other
agreement to which the Executive is a party, provided that

disclosure is relevant to the enforcement of such rights or defense of such

Company will have no obligation to pay any of the amounts that remain payable

determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any state that any
restriction in this Section 9 is excessive in duration or scope or is
unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of that state, it is the intention
of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court
to
render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that
state.

or entity acting for or on behalf of the Executive.

obligations contained in this Section 9 shall survive in accordance with
their
terms the termination or expiration of the Executive's employment with the
Company and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.

Company and its present and future subsidiaries jointly and severally agree
to
indemnify and hold harmless the Executive against any loss, claim, damage
or
liability whatsoever, (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), to
which Executive may become subject as a result of performing any act (or
omitting to perform any act) contemplated to be performed by the Executive
pursuant to this Agreement unless such loss, claim, damage or liability arose
out of Executive’s willful or intentional misconduct. The Company and its
subsidiaries agree to reimburse Executive for the reasonable costs of defense
of
any action or investigation (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses)

counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event any
counsel appointed by the Company shall not be acceptable to Executive, then

Company shall have the right to appoint alternative counsel for the Executive
reasonably acceptable to the Executive, until such time as acceptable counsel
can be appointed. In any event, the Company shall, at its sole cost and expense,
be entitled to appoint counsel to appear and participate as co-counsel in
