consolidation of the Company or I-trax with another corporation where the
stockholders of the Company or I-trax, as the case may be, immediately prior to

or understanding, written or oral, relating to the services of any Person who is
known or should be known by Executive to be then employed or to have been

6.3 Executive also covenants and agrees that, during the Original
Term and any Additional Term (regardless whether the Original Term or any
Additional Term are terminated, under Sections 4.2 and 4.4 above, prior to the
scheduled expiration [i.e., the date to which such term would have continued if
there had been no acceleration of the end of such term] of the relevant period,
except as modified by Sections 5.2(a), 5.2(b), 5.2(d) and 5.4(b) and 5.4(c)) and
for a period of five (5) years after the expiration thereof, Executive shall
treat as trade secrets all Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined)
known or acquired by him in the course of any affiliation Executive shall have
had with the Company and will not disclose any Confidential Information to any
Person not affiliated with the Company except as authorized in writing by the
Company. The term "Confidential Information" shall mean: information relating to
the relationship of the Company or I-trax to their customers (including, without
limitation, the identity of any customer), the research, design, development,
manufacturing, marketing, pricing, costs, capabilities, capacities and business
plans related to the software development activities and other services of the

compounds, projects, developments, plans, research data, clinical data,
financial data, personnel data, computer programs, Software (as defined below)
and customer and supplier lists and any other confidential information relating
to the assets, condition or business of the Company or its Affiliates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall have no obligation with respect
to (i) information disclosed to Executive by a Person who does not owe a duty of
confidentiality to the Company or any Affiliate thereof; or (ii) information
which is in the public domain and is readily available; or (iii) information

for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and I-trax and
are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose. Executive
acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by Executive of the
covenants contained in this Section 6 would cause the Company and I-trax
irreparable harm and that the extent of damages to the Company and I-trax would
be impossible to ascertain and that there is and will not be available to the
Company or I-trax adequate monetary damages or other remedy at law to compensate
it in the event of any such breach. Consequently, Executive agrees that, in the
event of a breach of any such covenant, in addition to any other relief to which
the Company and I-trax is or may be entitled, the Company or I-trax shall be
entitled, as a matter of course, to an injunction or other equitable relief,
including the remedy of specific performance, to enforce any or all of such
covenants by Executive, his or her employer, employees, partners, agents or any
of them.

or governmental agency or authority that any provision of Section 6 is invalid
by reason of the length of any period of time or the size of any area during or
6
in which such provision is effective, such period of time or area shall be
considered to be reduced to the extent required to cure such invalidity.
6.6 In the event that there should be a violation of the
restrictions contained in Section 6.1, the duration of such restriction shall be
extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such
breach or breaches shall occur.
