(ii) hire, solicit or encourage to leave the employment or service of any Covered Party (or any future Affiliate of a Covered Party), any officer or employee of, or any consultant to, any Covered Party (or any future Affiliate of a Covered Party), or hire or participate (with another company or third party) in the process of hiring any Person who is then, or who within the preceding six (6) months was, an employee of any Covered Party (or future Affiliate thereof), or provide names or other information about the Company’s employees to any Person or business under circumstances which could lead to the use of that information for purposes of recruiting or hiring; provided, however that Employee shall not be deemed to have violated this clause (ii) if an employee of a Covered Party (or any future affiliate thereof) responds directly to a general advertisement of another Person as long as Employee has no involvement or participation in the employment of such Person.
(c) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following words shall have the meanings ascribed to such words:

7. Non-Disturbance. During the Restrictive Period, Employee shall not engage in any pattern of conduct that involves the making or publishing of written or oral statements or remarks (including, without limitation, the repetition or distribution of derogatory rumors, allegations, negative reports or comments) which are disparaging, deleterious or damaging to the integrity, reputation or goodwill of any Covered Party (or future Affiliate of a Covered Party) or its management. In addition, during the Restrictive Period, Employee shall not (i) take any action that would adversely affect any contractual or customer or supplier relationships of any Covered Party (or future Affiliate thereof), including without limitation any action that would result in a diminution in business, or (ii) otherwise take any action that is known by Employee to be detrimental to the best interests of a Covered Party (or future Affiliate thereof).
8. Confidentiality.
(a) Employee shall keep confidential and shall not, without the prior express written consent of the Company, use, disclose, reveal, publish, transfer or provide access to any and all information relating to any Covered Party’s (or future Affiliate’s) products, facilities, methods, know-how, trade secrets and other intellectual property, software, source code, systems, procedures, manuals, confidential reports, product price lists, customer and supplier lists, financial information (including revenues, costs or profits associated with any of Covered Party’s products), bids and proposals, legal opinions, records and specifications which are owned, developed, used or retained by any Covered Party (or future Affiliate thereof) and which have not been publicly disclosed (excluding limited disclosures for business purposes) and other information of any third party which any Covered Party (or future Affiliate thereof) is under an obligation to keep confidential, and any and all documentation in any form and of every kind or type relating to the foregoing (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Confidential Information”).

9. Restrictive Covenants.
(a) Not Related to Employment. The restrictive covenants contained in Sections 6 through and including 8 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) have been agreed to as part of the conditions of employment and shall continue to apply throughout the entire Term of this Agreement and the Restrictive Period without regard to the circumstances surrounding any termination of employment of Employee by any Covered Party.
(b) Rights and Remedies Upon Breach. If Employee breaches or threatens to breach any of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and remedies shall be independent of the others and severally enforceable, and each of which is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company under law or in equity: (i) the right and remedy to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, without any requirement that the Company post any bond, it being agreed that any breach of the Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Company (ii) the right to recover actual damages, and (iii) the right to receive reimbursement for the Company’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred as a result of Employee’s breach.
(c) Severability of Covenants. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, are invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect without regard to the invalid portions.
10. Developments. If at any time or times during the Term, Employee shall (either alone or with others) make, conceive, discover or reduce to practice any invention, modification, discovery, design, development, improvement, process, software program, work of authorship, documentation, formula, data, technique, know-how, secret or intellectual property right whatsoever or any interest therein (whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes or subject to analogous protection) (herein called “Developments”) that (a) relates to the business of the Company or any customer of or supplier to the Company or any of the products or services being developed, manufactured or sold by the Company or which may be used in relation therewith, (b) results from tasks assigned to Employee by the Company or (c) results from the use of premises or personal property (whether tangible or intangible) owned by, leased by or contracted for the Company, such Developments and the benefits thereof shall immediately become the sole and absolute property of the Company and its assigns. Employee shall promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) each such Development and hereby assign any rights that Employee may have or acquire in the Developments and benefits and/or rights resulting from the Development to the Company and its assigns without further compensation and shall communicate, without cost or delay, and without publishing the same, all available information relating thereto (with all necessary plans and models) to the Company.
(a) Upon disclosure of each Development to the Company, Employee will, during the Term and at any time thereafter, at the request and cost of the Company, sign, execute, make and do all such deeds, documents, acts and things as the Company and its duly authorized agent may reasonably require:
5
(i) to apply for, obtain and vest in the name of the Company alone (unless the Company otherwise directs) letters patent, copyrights or other analogous protection in any country throughout the world relating to such Development and when so obtained or vested to renew and restore the same; and
(ii) to defend any opposition proceedings in respect of such applications and any opposition proceedings or petitions or applications for revocation of such letters patent, copyright or other analogous protection relating to each Development.
In the event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure Employee’s signature on any letters patent, copyright or other analogous protection relating to a Development, whether because of Employee’s physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason, Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Employee’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in Employee’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such application or applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent, copyright or other analogous protection thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Employee.
(b) All decisions relative to patents, trademarks, copyrights or other petitions shall be at the sole discretion of the Company, including, without limitation, decisions as to whether and where applications shall be filed, pursued and abandoned.
(c) Employee may request a release or partial release from this Agreement as to any specific Development which is not being used, or is not contemplated being used. Such release may, if granted by the Company and in the Company’s sole discretion, be full or limited or may contain such other restrictions and conditions as the Company may require.
(d) Employee represents that the Employee has no agreements or obligations to others in conflict with this Section 10 and that the Employee does not own or have an interest in any patent, patent applications or Development except as disclosed in writing and attached to this Agreement.

Employee will not cause or permit the Company to participate in any such transaction without the advance written consent of an officer or director of the Company.

Employee shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Company against any violations or claimed violations of Employee’s obligations herein.
13. Termination.
(a) Death, Disability, Change in Control, Breach or Cause. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Employee’s employment shall terminate upon her death, and the Company may terminate, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 14, Employee’s employment by giving Employee written notice of such termination (i) for Cause, as hereinafter defined; (ii) if Employee shall become physically or mentally incapacitated and by reason thereof, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, is substantially impaired from performing all of her duties hereunder for a period of at least ninety (90) consecutive days, and such condition is likely to continue for at least six months, in the opinion of a certified medical doctor (“Disability”); or (iii) other than for Cause, following at least ninety (90) days prior written notice . For the purposes of this Agreement, “for Cause” shall mean any of the following events: (i) the willful failure to perform the duties
7
reasonably assigned to Employee by the Company after detailed written notice from the Company of such failure and a thirty (30) day cure period to remedy the deficiency described in such notice, (ii) a good faith finding by the Board, after reasonable written notice and an opportunity to be heard, of Employee’s dishonesty involving the Company or willful misconduct, (iii) material breach of any employment, consulting, advisory, non-disclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the Company and Employee or (iv) Employee’s conviction of guilt, or plea of guilty, to a felony or other indictable offense.
(b) Employee, at her option, shall be able to terminate this Agreement upon written notice given to the Secretary of the Company within ninety (90) days of an occurrence of a “Change in Control” of the Company or any entity controlling the Company, including Computer Horizons Corp. (referred to collectively in this Section 13 as the Company). For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) any person (as defined in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), excluding the Company, any Subsidiary and any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary (including any trustee of any such plan acting in his capacity as trustee), but including a “group” as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, becomes the beneficial owner of shares of the Company having at least 20% of the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of directors of the Company; (ii) the shareholders of the Company shall approve any merger or other business combination of the Company, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or combination of the foregoing transactions (a “Transaction”), other than a Transaction involving only the Company and one or more of its Subsidiaries, or a Transaction immediately following which the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Transaction continue to have a majority of the voting power in the resulting entity (excluding for this purpose any shareholder owning directly or indirectly more than 10% of the shares of the other company involved in the Transaction), or (iii) within any 24 month period beginning on or after the date hereof, the persons who were directors of the Company immediately before the beginning of such period (the “Incumbent Directors”) shall cease (for any reason other than death) to constitute at least a majority of the Board or the board of directors of any successor to the Company, provided that, any director who was not a director as of the date hereof shall be deemed to be an Incumbent Director if such director was elected to the Board by, or on the recommendation of or with the approval of, at least two-thirds of the directors who then qualified as Incumbent Directors either actually or by prior operation of this Section 13(b) unless such election, recommendation or approval was the result of an actual or threatened election contest of the type contemplated by Regulation 14a-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any successor provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement by reason of any actions or events in which the Employee participates in a capacity other than in his capacity as an executive or director of the Company, provided that the Employee voting or tendering, exchanging or otherwise disposing of any or all his shares of the Company’s capital stock shall not be deemed participation. For purposes of this Section 13(b), “Subsidiary” shall mean any entity in which the Company owns, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the outstanding securities generally entitled to vote for the election of directors. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if, while the Employee is employed by the Company, a Change in Control shall occur with or without the prior approval of the Incumbent Directors, then the Company shall immediately pay the Employee a lump sum amount equal to twice the Employee’s Salary for the year in which the Change in Control occurred; provided, however, that the amount so paid shall not exceed twice the Employee’s “base
8
amount”, as such term is defined in Section 280(G) of the Internal Revenue Code. The lump sum payment specified in the preceding sentence shall be made in addition to any other compensation due to the Employee, or her beneficiaries, by the Company, including but not limited to salary, severance pay, consulting fees, disability benefits, termination benefits, retirement benefits, life and health insurance benefits, stock ownership or stock option benefits.
(c) Both the Company’s and Employee’s rights of termination shall be in addition to and shall not affect the Company’s rights and remedies under other sections of this Agreement, and such rights and remedies under such sections shall survive termination of this Agreement and Employee’s employment.
(d) Employee agrees that upon the request of Company, Employee will promptly, without notice, submit to testing for the use of drugs or controlled substances.
14. Compensation Upon Termination. Upon termination of employment as provided herein, Employee shall be entitled to the following benefits, provided that a termination occurs during the Term of this Agreement:
(a) Disability. During any period that the Employee fails to perform full-time duties with the Company as a result of Disability, the Employee shall continue to be paid an amount equal to the Salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of any such period through the date of termination for Disability with such Salary to be paid in the same manner as set forth in Section 5(a), together with all amounts payable to the Employee under any disability plans or policies of the Company. Thereafter, Employee benefits shall be determined in accordance with the insurance programs of the Company then in effect.
(b) Death. If employment shall be terminated by reason of death, then the Company shall pay to the Employee’s estate the Employee’s Salary at the rate then in effect through the date of termination, it being understood that no impairment of the rights of any beneficiaries of the benefits referenced in Exhibit A shall occur in such event.
(c) For Cause or Voluntary Terminations. If employment shall be terminated by the Company for Cause or by Employee for any reason, then the Company shall pay to Employee the Salary at the rate then in effect through the date of termination at the rate in effect at the time a notice of termination is given and shall pay any other amounts payable to Employee through the date of termination pursuant to any other compensation plans, programs, or this Agreement. Upon such payment(s), the Company shall have no further obligation to Employee under this Agreement.
(d) Other than for Cause, Death, or Disability. If employment shall be terminated by the Company other than for Cause or death or Disability of Employee, then Company shall pay to Employee the Salary at the rate then in effect for the greater of (i) the remainder of the original Term or (ii) for one (1) year following such termination, with such Salary to be paid in the same manner as set forth in Section 5(a). In addition, all unvested stock options granted to the Employee shall immediately vest and the Company shall be responsible at its expense for the continuance of health and welfare benefits referenced on Exhibit A for one year.
