Therefore, Executive agrees that he will not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for the account of himself or any other Person any Company Property or Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Company (by the action of the Board), unless and to the extent that such Company Property or Confidential Information has become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s

4

improper acts or omissions to act, or is required to be disclosed by law. Executive will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company at, or within two days of, the Termination Date, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) containing or relating to Company Property or Confidential Information or the business of any Related Company which Executive may then possess or have under his control.

     Section 7. Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation.

     (a) Non-Compete. Executive acknowledges that during his employment relationship with, or through his involvement as a consultant, contractor, representative, agent, officer, director, partner, member or stockholder of, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates or any predecessor thereof, Executive has and will become familiar with trade secrets and Confidential Information concerning such companies, and with investment opportunities relating to their respective businesses, and that Executive’s services have been and will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the foregoing entities. Therefore, Executive agrees that, during his employment with the Company and for one year after the Termination Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties to this Agreement, he will not, directly or indirectly, invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, render services to, or in any manner connected with any business (in each case including on his own behalf or on behalf of another Person), whose products, services or activities compete in whole or in part with the products, services or activities of the Company or its Affiliates, as they now exist or may exist during such one year period, anywhere within the United States; provided, however, that Executive may purchase or otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) 2% of any class of securities of any enterprise (but without otherwise directly or indirectly participating in the activities of such enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Executive agrees that this covenant is reasonable with respect to its duration, geographical area, and scope. By initialing in the space provided below, Executive acknowledges that he has read carefully and had the opportunity to consult with legal counsel regarding the provisions of this Section 7(a). _/s/ RCM_ [initial].

Any copyrightable work falling within the definition of Work Product shall be deemed a “work made for hire” and ownership of all right title and interest shall rest in the Company. Executive hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys, to the full extent permitted by law, all right, title and interest in the Work Product, on a worldwide basis, to the Company to the extent ownership of any such rights does not automatically vest in the Company under applicable law. Executive will promptly disclose any such Work Product to the Company and perform all actions requested by the Company (whether during or after employment) to establish and confirm ownership of such Work Product by the Company (including without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments.)

     Section 9. Enforcement. The Company and Executive agree that if, at any time a court holds that anything stated in any Section of this Agreement is unreasonable under circumstances then existing, then the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to information of the type described in Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof, the Company and Executive agree that money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any breach of Section 6, 7 or 8 hereof. Therefore, in the event of a breach of Section 6, 7 or 8 hereof, the Company and any Subsidiary thereof may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions of Section 6, 7 or 8 hereof. The provisions of Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof are intended to be for the benefit of the Company and any Subsidiary thereof and their respective successors and assigns. Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof will survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of the Employment Period.
