extent of the restrictions upon him and the rights and remedies conferred
on the Company under this Agreement, and Executive hereby acknowledges and
agrees that:
(a) the restrictions and covenants contained herein, and the
rights and remedies conferred upon the Company, are necessary to
protect the goodwill and other value of the business of the Company;
(b) the restrictions placed upon Executive hereunder are fair and
reasonable, will not prevent him from earning a livelihood, and
place no greater restraint upon the Executive than is reasonably
necessary to secure the business and goodwill of the Company;
(c) the Company is relying upon the restrictions and covenants
contained herein in continuing to make available to Executive information
concerning the business of the Company;
(d) Executive's employment hereunder places him in a position of

noncompetitive areas which do not endanger the Company's legitimate
interests expressed in this Agreement.

of any of the covenants contained in this Article 4 of this Agreement will
cause irreparable injury
▇.▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Employment Agreement

actual or threatened breach by the Executive of such covenants will be
inadequate and that the Company shall be entitled to specific performance
of the covenants in this Article 4 or injunctive relief against activities
in violation of this Article 4 by temporary or permanent injunction or
other appropriate judicial remedy, writ or order, without the necessity of
proving actual damages. This provision with respect to injunctive relief
shall not diminish the right of the Company to claim and recover monetary
damages against the Executive for any breach of this Agreement, in
addition to injunctive relief. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that
the covenants contained in this Article 4 shall be construed as agreements
independent of any other provision of this or any other contract between
the parties hereto, and that the existence of any claim or cause of action
by the Executive against the Company, whether predicated upon this or any
other contract, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the
Company of said covenants.
4.6 No Conflicting Obligations. Executive represents and warrants to the
Company that he is not now under any obligation of a contractual or other
nature to any person or entity which is inconsistent or in conflict with
this Agreement, or which would prevent, limit or impair in any way the
performance by him of his obligations hereunder.

Company all right, title and interest whatsoever in and to any and all
Employee Works, including all worldwide copyrights, trade secrets, patent
rights, and all confidential, proprietary and property rights therein, and
Executive will execute, without requiring the Company to provide any
further consideration therefore, such patent applications (including
continuations and related materials), confirmatory assignments,
instruments and documents as the Company deems necessary or desirable in
order to effect such assignment and to protect and enforce such rights.
The term "Employee Works" as used in this Agreement means any and all
works of authorship, inventions, discoveries, improvements, designs,
techniques, and work product, whether or not patentable, and in whatever
form, which are created, made,
▇.▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Employment Agreement

provided by the Employer for a period of up to six months of temporary
disability. In the event that the Executive is not able to perform his
duties on a full time basis for a consecutive period of six months from
the date of the temporary disability then this Agreement shall
automatically terminate and the Company shall pay to the Executive his
Base Salary through the Termination Date to the extent not theretofore
