Non-Competition and Conflicts of Interest.

6.1

During the Employment Period and, thereafter, until the later of (i) that date which is one (1) year

after the termination or expiration of the Employment Period and (ii) December 31, 2015,

Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever (other than as the holder of

not more than one percent (1%) of the total outstanding stock of a publicly held company), either

on Executive’s own behalf or as a partner, officer, director, Executive, agent, or consultant of any

other person or entity, do or attempt to do any of the following:

(a)

(i) engage in the business of providing software and services relating to IT solutions

specializing in security and network technology products, services, and support to

customers and related services, (ii) provide services to, or for the benefit of, any person or

entity to whom Executive or Company, including Company’s Parent and any affiliates,

provided services, sold, offered to sell or solicited orders, contracts, or accounts for

services during one (1) year immediately prior to the termination of Executive’s

employment, or (iii) provide services to, or for the benefit of, any person or entity who

provides services of a kind or nature substantially similar to the services performed by

Company; or

(b)

solicit, encourage, or induce any current or prospective clients, customers, suppliers,

vendors, or contractors of the Company to terminate or decrease any business

relationship with the Company or not to proceed with, or enter into, any business

relationship with the Company, nor shall Executive otherwise materially adversely

interfere with any business relationship between the Company and any of its current or

prospective franchisees, clients, customers, suppliers, vendors, or contractors; or

(c)

solicit, recruit, encourage or induce any partner, officer, director, Executive, agent,

consultant or independent contractor of the Company to terminate his/her employment or

relationship with the Company, or otherwise materially adversely interfere with or disrupt

the Company’s relationship with any partner, officer, director, Executive, agent, or

consultant.

6.3

The parties agree that the relevant public policy aspects of covenants not to compete have been

discussed, and that every effort has been made to limit the restrictions placed upon the Executive

to those that are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate interests.

6.4

Executive recognizes, acknowledges and agrees that much of the Company’s business is

conducted over the Internet, and that the Internet poses special concerns and considerations with

respect to covenants not to compete, including the fact that limiting the geographic scope of any

restrictions placed upon Executive would not adequately protect Company’s legitimate interests.

The Executive also recognizes, acknowledges and agrees that Company’s business is global in

scope and that the time period and scope of the foregoing restrictions are reasonable and necessary

for the protection of Company’s valid business interests. The Executive further recognizes,

acknowledges and agrees that if his employment with Company terminates for any valid or other

reason, the Executive can earn a livelihood without violating any of the restrictions contained in

this Section.

6.5

If any restriction set forth in this Section 6 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be

unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of

activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the

maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable.

6.6

The restrictions contained in this Section 6 are necessary for the protection of the business and

goodwill of Company and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose.

Executive recognizes, acknowledges and agrees that any breach by him of any of the provisions

contained in this Section 6 may cause Company immediate, material and irreparable injury and

damage, and there is no adequate remedy at law for such breach. Accordingly, in the event of a

breach of any of the provisions of this Section 6 by Executive, in addition to any other remedies it

may have at law or in equity, Company shall be entitled immediately to seek enforcement of this

Section 6 in a court of competent jurisdiction by means of a decree of specific performance, an

injunction without the posting of a bond or the requirement of any other guarantee, and any other

form of equitable relief. This provision is not a waiver of any other rights which Company may

have under this Agreement, including the right to recover money damages.

6.7

The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that Executive is not bound by any

restrictive covenants and has no prior or other obligations or commitments of any kind that would

in any way prevent, restrict, hinder or interfere with Executive’s acceptance of employment or the

performance of all duties and services hereunder to the fullest extent of the Executive’s ability and

knowledge. The Executive agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company for any liability

the Company may incur as the result of the existence of any such covenants, obligations or

commitments.

6.8

Executive agrees to comply with all rules and policies of the Company relating to conflicts of

interest which are disclosed to Executive by the Company, specifically including but not limited to

the following:

(a)

Executive will promptly notify the Company of any conflicts of interest or excessive gifts

or offers of gifts or remuneration from clients, suppliers, or others doing or seeking to do

business with the Company;

(b)

Executive will promptly inform the Company of any business opportunities that come to

the attention of Executive that relate to the existing or prospective business of the

Company and will not participate in any such opportunities without the prior written

consent of the Company;

(c)

Executive will not engage in any act involving dishonesty, bad faith or lack of integrity or

candor with respect to the Company;

(d)

Executive will not engage in any act or omission that materially injures the business or

affairs of the Company, monetarily or otherwise; and

(e)

Executive will not engage in any other employment or business activity during working

hours or at Executive’s work location.

Proprietary Information and Developments.

7.1

Proprietary Information.

(a)

Executive agrees that all information and know-how, regardless of whether in writing, of

a private, secret or confidential nature concerning the Company’s business or financial

affairs (collectively, “Proprietary Information”) is and shall be the exclusive property of

the Company. By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information may

include information about Company’s methods of operation, manufacturing, selling,

marketing, promoting or otherwise providing products, goods or services, trade secrets,

inventions, processes, techniques, projects, developments, plans, financial data, personnel

data, computer programs, and existing or potential customers, suppliers, officers,

directors, agents, vendors, owners, shareholders, contractors, partners, representatives,

advisors, and consultants of Company. Executive will not disclose any Proprietary

Information or the terms of this Agreement (collectively, “Confidential Information”) to

any person outside the Company or use the same for any unauthorized purposes, and will

not use or aid others in obtaining or using any such Confidential Information without

written approval by an officer of the Company, either during or after his employment,

unless and until such Confidential Information has become public knowledge without

fault by the Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may disclose any

Confidential Information (i) for the benefit of the Company and as necessary to perform

the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, (ii) when required by law and then only

after consultation with the Company or unless such information is in the public domain,

and/or (iii) which relates to the terms of this Agreement to any financial or legal advisors,

or family members, of Executive.

(b)

Executive agrees that all files, letters, memoranda, reports, records, data, sketches,

drawings, notebooks, computer programs, or other written, photographic, electronic or

other tangible material containing Proprietary Information, whether created by the

Executive or others, which shall come into his custody or possession, shall be and are the

exclusive property of the Company to be used by the Executive only in the performance

of his duties for the Company and for the benefit of Company in connection with the

performance of those duties, and immediately upon the termination of the Executive’s

employment, or at any other time upon request of the Company, the Executive shall

return to the Company all such Proprietary Information of the Company.

(c)

Executive agrees that his obligation not to disclose or use information, know-how and

records of the types set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, also extends to such types

of information, know-how, records and tangible property of affiliates of the Company,

customers of the Company or suppliers to the Company or other third parties who may

have disclosed or entrusted the same to the Company or to the Executive in the course of

the Company’s business.

Company Property. All correspondence, records, documents, software, promotional materials, and other

Company property, including all copies, which come into the Executive’s possession by, through or in the

course of his employment, regardless of the source and whether created by the Executive, are the sole and

exclusive property of the Company, and immediately upon the termination of the Executive’s employment,

the Executive shall return to the Company all such property of the Company.

Notices. All notices required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed

effective upon delivery personally, by facsimile or by overnight mail, or upon deposit in the United States

Post Office, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the other party at the address last

known, or at such other address or addresses as either party shall designate to the other in accordance with

this Section 9.

10.

Pronouns. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the

corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular forms of nouns and pronouns shall

include the plural, and vice versa.

11.

Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and

supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter

of this Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by

both the Company and the Executive.

12.

Severability. This Agreement shall be enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by law. In the event that a

court holds any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that, if

allowed by law, that provision shall be reduced, modified or otherwise conformed to the relevant law,

judgment or determination to the degree necessary to render it valid and enforceable without affecting the

rest of this Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any

jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed severable from the remainder of this Agreement, and

the remaining provisions contained in this Agreement shall be construed to preserve to the maximum

permissible extent the intent and purposes of this Agreement. Any such prohibition or unenforceability in

any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

13.

Governing Law. The validity and construction of this Agreement or of any of its terms or provisions shall

be determined under the laws of the State of Connecticut, regardless of any principles of conflicts of laws

or choice of laws of any jurisdiction. Except as set out in Section 15 below, the state courts of the State of

Connecticut and, if the jurisdictional prerequisites exist at the time, the United States District Court for

Connecticut, shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any dispute or controversy

arising under or concerning this Agreement.

14.

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of both parties and

their respective successors and assigns, including any corporation with which or into which the Company

may be merged or which may succeed to its assets or business, provided, however, that the obligations of

the Executive are personal and shall not be assigned by him/her. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive

has the right to assign to any third party any right to receive any bonus payment set forth in Section 3.2 of

this Agreement, and any consideration payable upon death or disability of the Executive may be assigned to

his estate or legal representatives.

15.

Arbitration.

15.1

Executive and the Company agree that any controversy, dispute or claim directly or indirectly

arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, or arising out of or relating to

the employment of the Executive, or the termination thereof, shall be resolved either as provided

for by applicable law, or, at the option of either party, by impartial binding arbitration. In the

event that either party demands arbitration, Executive and the Company agree that such arbitration

shall be the exclusive, final and binding forum for the ultimate resolution of such claims, subject

to any rights of appeal that either party may have under the Federal Arbitration Act and/or under

applicable state law dealing with the review of arbitration decisions. Specifically, this Agreement

is intended to include, but is not limited to, claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,

as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the

Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, any wage and hour or wage

payment or collection law, or any other federal, state, or local law, regulation or ordinance

regarding employment. It also includes, but is not limited to, all claims for breach of contract or

wrongful discharge, breach of express or implied promises or covenants of good faith and fair

dealing, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, defamation, or any loss, expense,

or claim whatsoever resulting from or related to Executive’s employment.

15.2

Executive and the Company understand and acknowledge that this Agreement means that neither

can pursue an action against the other in a court of law regarding any employment dispute, except

for claims involving workers’ compensation benefits or unemployment benefits, and except as set

forth elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event that either party notifies the other of its demand for

arbitration under this Agreement. The parties also agree that the obligation to arbitrate any dispute

is fully enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act, and that a judgment upon any such award

may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over such claims. The parties further understand

that this Agreement does not alter any of the substantive rights that the parties may have under

law, including the Executive’s statutory right to file a charge with an administrative agency for

investigative purposes or other action by the agency, nor does it limit or restrict Executive’s ability

to participate or assist any agency in its investigation, processing or handling of any charge. This

Agreement simply transfers final resolution of a party’s right to seek relief from either a judge or a

jury to a speedy and impartial arbitrator for the mutual benefit of both parties, when arbitration is

demanded.

15.3

In the event that Executive or the Company initially elects to file suit in any court, the other party

will have 60 days from the date that it is formally served with a summons and copy of the suit to

notify the party filing suit of the non-filing party’s demand for arbitration. In that case, the suit

must be dismissed by consent of the parties or by the court on motion, and arbitration commenced

with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). In situations where suit has not been filed,

either Executive or the Company may initiate arbitration by serving a written demand for

arbitration upon the other party and the AAA. Such a demand must be served within the same

limitations period that would apply if the action were pursued in court. Any claim which is not

timely made will be deemed waived.

15.4

Any arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association

National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes, effective September 15, 2005, and

any amendments or revisions thereto (“AAA Rules”). A copy of the AAA Rules may be obtained

upon request. The dispute shall be heard and determined by one arbitrator and that arbitrator shall

be a member of the National Academy of Arbitrators. The arbitrator may grant any remedy or

relief that would have been available to the parties had the matter been heard in court. Unless

otherwise mutually agreed upon, the arbitration shall be heard within 25 miles of the Executive’s

current or most recent place of employment. The Company will pay any filing or other

administrative fees that exceed $100.00 (One Hundred Dollars), and that are required by AAA for

the cost of providing administrative services. All other expenses of the arbitrator, including

required travel, shall be borne by the Company. As provided by the AAA Rules, the arbitrator

shall have the authority to order such discovery as the arbitrator considers necessary to a full and

fair exploration of the issues in dispute, consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration. The

parties shall bear their own costs and attorneys’ fees incurred during this discovery process, as

well as during the arbitration.

15.5

The parties understand and agree that this Section 15, concerning arbitration, shall not include any

controversies or claims related to any agreements or provisions (including provisions in this

Agreement) respecting confidentiality, proprietary information, non-competition, non-solicitation,

trade secrets, or breaches of fiduciary obligations by Executive, which shall not be subject to

arbitration.

15.6

Executive has been advised of his right to consult with an attorney prior to entering into this

Agreement.

16.

I.R.C. 409A. Unless otherwise expressly provided, any payment of compensation by Company to

Executive, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, shall be made within two and one-half months

(2½ months) after the later of the end of the calendar year of the Company’s fiscal year in which

Executive’s right to such payment vests (i.e., is not subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” for purposes

of Code Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”)). To the extent that any

severance payments come within the definition of “involuntary severance” under Code Section 409A, such

amounts up to the lesser of two times the Executive’s annual compensation for the year preceding the year

of termination or two times the 401(a)(17) limit for the year of termination, shall be excluded from

“deferred compensation” as allowed under Code Section 409A, and shall not be subject to the following

Code Section 409A compliance requirements. All payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation”

(within the meaning of Section 409A) are intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A,

and shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. Neither party individually or in combination may

accelerate any such deferred payment, except in compliance with Code Section 409A, and no amount shall

be paid prior to the earliest date on which it is permitted to be paid under Code Section 409A. In the event

that Executive is determined to be a “key employee” (as defined in Code Section 416(i) (without regard to

paragraph (5) thereof)) of Company at a time when its stock is deemed to be publicly traded on an

established securities market, payments determined to be “nonqualified deferred compensation” payable

following termination of employment shall be made no earlier than the earlier of (i) the last day of the sixth

In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, and conditions set forth herein, and other good and

valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, IGXGLOBAL CORP. (the

“Company”) and Xxxxxx Xxxxx (the “Executive”) agree as follows:

The Company shall continue to pay Executive compensation pursuant to Section 5.4 of the

Employment Agreement between him and the Company (“Employment Agreement”) as a result of termination

without Cause (as defined therein) or for Good Reason (as defined therein). Executive agrees that he shall not be

entitled to any other or further compensation, remuneration, benefits, reimbursement, payments, options, stock, or

other equity issue of or from Company.

Executive, deeming this General Release Agreement to be fair, reasonable, and equitable, and

intending to be legally bound hereby, agrees to and hereby does, forever and irrevocably fully release and discharge

Company (including any subsidiary or affiliated entities, and its and their respective officers, directors, Executives,

agents, predecessors, successors, purchasers, assigns, and representatives) from any and all grievances, liens, suits,

judgments, claims, demands, debts, defenses, actions or causes of action, obligations, damages, and liabilities

whatsoever which Executive now has, has had, or may have, whether the same be known or unknown, at law, in

equity, or mixed, in any way arising out of or relating in any way to any matter, act, occurrence, or transaction

before the date of this General Release Agreement, including but not limited to his employment with Company, and

his separation from Company. This is a General Release. Executive expressly acknowledges that this General

Release includes, but is not limited to, his release of any tort and contract claims, arbitration claims, claims under

any local, state or federal wage and hour law, wage collection law or labor relations law, and claims of age, race,

sex, religion, disability, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, retaliation or any other claim of employment

discrimination, under the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1991 as amended (42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e et seq.), the Age

admit but denies any violation of his legal rights, and that he shall not be regarded as a prevailing party for any

purpose, including but not limited to, determining responsibility for or entitlement to attorneys’ fees, under any

statute or otherwise. This General Release does not apply to any obligations of the Company under the Employment

Agreement which survive termination or expiration of the Employment Agreement, including without limitation its

obligations under Section 5.

Executive agrees that every term of this General Release Agreement, including, but not limited to,

the fact that an agreement has been reached and the amount paid, shall be treated by Executive as strictly

confidential, and expressly covenants not to display, publish, disseminate, or disclose the terms of this General

Release Agreement to any person or entity.

All correspondence, records, documents, software, promotional materials, and other Company

property, including all copies, which come into the Executive’s possession by, through or in the course of his

employment, regardless of the source and whether created by the Executive, are the sole and exclusive property of

the Company, and immediately upon the termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall return to

the Company all such property of the Company.

Executive acknowledges and agrees that he will continue to be bound by the terms and conditions

set forth in Sections 6, 7, and 15 of his Employment Agreement with the Company, notwithstanding this General
