Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that the protection of the Confidential Information is necessary to protect and preserve the value of Diablo’s business and proprietary properties being acquired by Heritage and HBC. Therefore, Shareholder hereby agrees not to, at any time, disclose to any unauthorized Persons or use for his or its own account or for the benefit of any third party any Confidential Information, whether or not such information is embodied in writing or other physical form or is retained in the memory of Shareholder, without Heritage’s written consent, unless and to the extent that the Confidential Information is or becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Shareholder’s fault or the fault of any other Person bound by a duty of confidentiality to Heritage, HBC or the Affiliated Companies. Shareholder agrees to deliver to Heritage at the Effective Date, and at any other time Heritage may request, all documents, memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documentation, models, components, devices or computer software, whether embodied in a disk or in other form (and all copies of all of the foregoing), that contain Confidential Information and any other Confidential Information that Shareholder may then possess or have under Shareholder’s control. (c) Breach. Shareholder, Heritage and HBC each recognize and acknowledge that the Confidential Information and other knowledge Shareholder has about Diablo and has and will obtain from Heritage, HBC or the Affiliated Companies is special and unique, and any violation of the covenants contained in this Agreement is likely to cause irreparable damage to Heritage, HBC or the Affiliated Companies. Therefore, the parties agree that, upon any breach of any covenant contained in this Section 3 by Shareholder, Heritage and HBC shall be entitled to an appropriate injunction for a violation of such covenant, threatened or actual, of such covenant, in addition to all other relief available under applicable law. If a court or arbitrator has determined that Shareholder has committed a breach by Sha<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>reholder of any covenant set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, the Restricted Period will be extended by the period of the duration of such breach. (d) Acknowledgment. Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions set forth in this Section 3 are reasonable in scope and essential to the preservation of Diablo’s business and proprietary properties and that enforcement of these restrictions will not cause Shareholder any hardship, and because of Shareholder’s background and experience, will not in any manner preclude Shareholder from becoming gainfully employed in such a manner and to such an extent as will provide a standard of living for Shareholder and the members of Shareholder’s family of at least the sort and fashion to which they have become accustomed. Each of Heritage, HBC and Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements contained in this Section 3 have been negotiated in good faith by each of them. Each of Heritage, HBC and Shareholder further acknowledges that (i) the goodwill associated with the existing vendors, customers, assets and employees of Diablo prior to the transactions contemplated herein is an integral component of the value of Diablo to Heritage and HBC and is reflected in the consideration to be received by Diablo shareholders, including the Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) the covenants and agreements contained in this Section 3 are necessary to preserve the value of Diablo’s business and proprietary properties for Heritage and HBC following the transaction. Each of Heritage, HBC and Shareholder acknowledges that the limitations of time, geography and scope of activity agreed to in Section 3 are reasonable because, among other things: (A) Heritage, HBC and Diablo are engaged in a highly competitive industry and have their operations in the Restricted Territory, (B) Shareholder had unique access to, and will continue to have access to, Confidential Information, including trade secrets, and know-how of Diablo and its business and proprietary properties, (C) Shareholder is receiving significant consideration in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement, and (D) this Agreement provides no more protection than is necessary to protect Heritage’s and HBC’s interest in the goodwill of Diablo and its business and proprietary properties, Confidential Information and Diablo, Heritage and HBC trade secrets. (e) No Disparagement. Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly, disparage Heritage and HBC, the business formerly conducted by Diablo, the business conducted by Heritage and HBC or any shareholder, director, officer, employee or agent of Heritage or HBC; (f) Future Employer. Shareholder will, during the Restrictive Period, within ten days after accepting any employment, consulting engagement, engagement as an independent contractor, partnership or other association that might reasonably involve the Business, advise Heritage of the identity of the new employer, client, partner or other Person with whom Shareholder has become associated. Following receipt of such notice, if Heritage in its reasonable judgment determines that Shareholder’s proposed association involves a Person engaged in the Business, Heritage may serve notice upon each such Person that such Shareholder is bound by this Agreement and furnish each such Person with a copy of this Agreement or relevant portions thereof. (g) Separate Agreement. The covenants of Shareholder contained in this Section 3 shall each be construed independently of any other prov<|eot_id|> |

Protection of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees that it will use diligent efforts to protect the secrecy and confidentiality of and avoid disclosure of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, including implementing equivalent security measures and degree of care that the Receiving Party uses to protect its own proprietary or confidential information. 4. Exceptions.

Within ten (10) days of receiving notice from the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall promptly return or destroy (and verify in writing its destruction) all material embodying Confidential Information (in any form and including, without limitation, all summaries, copies and excerpts of Confidential Information and all electronic media or records containing or derived from Confidential Information). 8. Non Solicit. Each Party agrees that for a period of two (2) years from the date hereof, neither Party will, without the prior written consent of other, directly or indirectly solicit for employment or hire any employee, consultant, officer or director of the other Party with whom the Party has had contact or who became known to the Party in connection with the Proposed Transaction.

Unless and until the Parties execute a definitive agreement regarding a Proposed Transaction, neither Party is under any legal obligation of any kind whatsoever with respect to such transaction by virtue of this Agreement, except for the matters specifically agreed to herein. Further, each Party hereby waives all claims (including breach of contract) in connection with any Proposed Transaction with the other party unless and until both Parties have executed a final definitive agreement. Each Party shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to reject or accept any potential proposal, or offer, and to terminate any discussions and negotiations, at any time and for any or no reason. 10. Judicial or Government Investigations. In the event that either Party is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party, such Party shall provide the other Party with prompt written notice of any such request or requirement so that the other Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, each Party agrees to (i) furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information for which the other Party has waived compliance or for which the Disclosing Party is advised by written opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the other Party, is required by law, rule, regulation or court order and (ii) exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that the Confidential Information will be accorded such confidential treatment. 11. No Warranties. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that it is not entitled to rely on the accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information of the other Party and that it will be entitled to rely solely on such representations and warranties as may be included in any definitive agreement with respect to a Proposed Transaction between the Parties, subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be contained therein. Each Party further acknowledges and agrees that it has no<|eot_id|> |
<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>Autocomplete the given text which is the part of a Non disclosure agreement.<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>tion, disclosure of such Confidential Information may be made without liability. 5. Term. This Agreement shall remain in effect for a two-year term (subject to a one year extension if the parties are still discussing and considering the Transaction at the end of the second year). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party’s duty to hold in confidence Confidential Information that was disclosed during term shall remain in effect indefinitely. 6. Remedies. Both parties acknowledge that the Confidential Information to be disclosed hereunder is of a unique and valuable character, and that the unauthorized dissemination of the Confidential Information would destroy or diminish the value of such information. The damages to Disclosing Party that would result from the unauthorized dissemination of the Confidential Information would be impossible to calculate. Therefore, both parties hereby agree that the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief preventing the dissemination of any Confidential Information in violation of the terms hereof. Such injunctive relief shall be in addition to any other remedies available hereunder, whether at law or in equity. Disclosing Party shall be entitled to recover its costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in obtaining any such relief. Further, in the event of litigation relating to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses. 7. Return of Confidential Information. Receiving Party shall immediately return and redeliver to Disclosing Party all tangible material embodying any Confidential Information provided hereunder and all notes, summaries, memoranda, drawings, manuals, records, excerpts or derivative information deriving therefrom, and all other documents or materials (“Notes”) (and all copies of any of the foregoing, including “copies” that have been converted to computerized media in the form of image, data, word processing, or other types of files either manually or by image capture) based on or including any Confidential Information, in whatever form of storage or retrieval, upon the earlier of (i) the completion or termination of the dealings between the parties contemplated hereunder; (ii) the termination of this Agreement; or (iii) at such time as the Disclosing Party may so request; provided however that the Receiving Party may retain such of its documents as is necessary to enable it to comply with its reasonable document retention policies. Alternatively, the Receiving Party, with the written consent of the Disclosing Party may (or in the case of Notes, at the Receiving Party’s option) immediately destroy any of the foregoing embodying Confidential Information (or the reasonably nonrecoverable data erasure of computerized data) and, upon request, certify in writing such destruction by an authorized officer of the Receiving Party supervising the destruction). 8. Notice of Breach. Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party immediately upon discovery of, or suspicion of, (1) any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information by Receiving Party or its Representatives; or (2) any actions by Receiving Party or its Representatives inconsistent with their respective obligations under this Agreement, Receiving Party shall cooperate with any and all efforts of the Disclosing Party to help the Disclosing Party regain possession of Confidential Information and prevent its further unauthorized use. 9. No Bi<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>nding Agreement for Transaction. The parties agree that neither party will be under any legal obligation of any kind whatsoever with respect to a Transaction by virtue of this Agreement, except for the matters specifically agreed to herein. The parties further acknowledge and agree that they each reserve the right, in their sole and absolute discretion, to reject any and all proposals and to terminate discussions and negotiations with respect to a Transaction at any time. This Agreement does not create a joint venture or partnership between the parties. If a Transaction goes forward, the non-disclosure provisions of any applicable transaction documents entered into between the parties (or their respective affiliates) for the Transaction shall supersede this Agreement. In the event such provision is not provided for in said transaction documents, this Agreement shall control. 10. Warranty. NO WARRANTIES ARE MADE BY EITHER PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WHATSOEVER. The parties acknowledge that although they shall each endeavor to include in the Confidential Information all information that they each believe relevant for the purpose of the evaluation of a Transaction, the parties understand that no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the Confidential Information is being made by the Disclosing Party. Further, neither party is under any obligation under this Agreement to disclose any Confidential Information it chooses not to disclose. Neither Party hereto shall have any liability to the other party or to the other party’s Representatives resulting from any use of the Confidential Information except with respect to disclosure of such Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement. 11. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous understandings and agreements, whether oral or written, between the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

All initially capitalized terms not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement (later defined). WHEREAS, the parties hereto are parties to a certain Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated as of April 1, 2003, pursuant to which ARC agreed to sell to Belcan the Purchased Shares in the Company; WHEREAS, ARC will receive valuable consideration from Belcan for the sale of the Purchased Shares in the Company and will also receive the Note as additional consideration for its covenants contained herein; WHEREAS, ARC has had access to all material and otherwise confidential information relating to the Company; WHEREAS, the Company is engaged in the business of providing on-line training to professionals in the medical arena (the "Business"); WHEREAS, Belcan would not be willing to enter into the Purchase Agreement without the agreement of ARC to execute this Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure Agreement, and Belcan has expressly conditioned its obligations under the Purchase Agreement on the entering into of this Non-Competition and Non-Disclosure Agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, in pursuance of the above and in consideration of the terms and conditions contained herein and for other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1.

ARC acknowledges that the Company has invested substantial sums in the development of its Confidential Information. ARC covenants and agrees that they will not, directly or indirectly, disclose or communicate to any person or entity any Confidential Information of the Com<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>pany; except (i) in connection with the enforcement of ARC's rights under the Purchase Agreement, or (ii) as otherwise required by law. This covenant has no geographical or territorial restriction or limitation and applies no matter where ARC may be located in the future. 2. Non-Solicitation Covenant. For a period of five (5) years from the date hereof, ARC, acting either directly or indirectly, through any other person, firm, or corporation, covenants and agrees not to (i) induce or attempt to induce or influence any employee of the Company to terminate employment with the Company when the Company desires to retain that person's services; (ii) in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company and any employee of the Company; or (iii) employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise, any employee of the Company. 3.

As used in this Agreement, the term "competing business" means any business competing with the Company for the Company's Business anywhere in the United States. As used in this Agreement, the term "customer" means any customer of the Company whose identity ARC learned through ARC's ownership of the Company or with whom ARC had business contact during the twelve (12) months immediately prior to the date hereof. 4. Return of Confidential Information. Upon the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, ARC agrees that all copies and originals of all documents and other materials containing or referring to the Company's Confidential Information as may be in ARC's possession, or over which ARC may have control, shall be delivered by ARC to Belcan immediately, with no request being required. 5. Injunctive Relief. ARC acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement will cause irreparable injury and damage to Belcan for which Belcan would have no adequate remedy at law, and ARC further agrees that in the event of said breach, Belcan, without having to prove damages, shall be entitled to an immediate restraining order and injunction to prevent such violation or continued violation, and to all costs and expenses, including Belcan's reasonable attorney fees, in addition to any other remedies to which Belcan may be entitled at law or equity. 6. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in any respect, Belcan and ARC agree that such term or provision shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. 7. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Belcan, its successors and assigns. 8. Governing Law, Forum Selection, and Consent to Personal Jurisdiction.

The term “Confidential Information” as used herein also includes the Transaction itself and any information, work papers, analyses, compilations, projections, studies, documents, terms, conditions, correspondence, facts or other materials derived or produced by COMVERGE or its representatives for each other which contain or otherwise reflect confidential or proprietary information provided or developed by COMVERGE in connection with the Transaction, or any other information which H.I.G. knows or reasonably ought to know is confidential or proprietary information of COMVERGE. Any Confidential Information supplied in connection with the Transaction by COMVERGE prior to the execution of this Agreement shall be considered in the same manner and be subject to the same treatment as the Confidential Information made available hereunder after the execution of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Representatives” of H.I.G. shall include its employees, officers, directors, financial advisors, staff agents, financing sources, representatives, consultants, advisors or members of any Investment Review or similar committees, but only to the extent such parties receive Confidential Information and excluding, in each case, any portfolio companies. 2. Exclusions from Definition. The term “Confidential Information” as used herein does not include any data or information which the receiving Party can demonstrate: (a) is already known to the receiving Party on a nonproprietary basis at the time it is disclosed to the receiving Party; (b) is or becomes generally known to the public through no wrongful act of the receiving Party or its representatives in violation of this Agreement; (c) has been rightfully received by the receiving Party from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without, to H.I.G.’s knowledge, a breach of an obligation of confidentiality running directly to the providing Party, if any; (d) has been approved for public release by written authorization by the originating Party; or (e ) was developed independently by H.I.G. or its Representatives without use of the Confidential Information. 3. Non-disclosure Obligation. H.J.G. shall keep the Confidential Information confidential and shall not disclose such Confidential Information, in whole or in part, to any pe<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>rson other than its Representatives who need to know such Confidential Information in connection with H.I.G.’ S evaluation, negotiation and potential consummation of the Transaction, except with the prior written consent of COMVERGE or as otherwise permitted hereunder. The Confidential Information shall be used by H.I.G. solely for the purpose of evaluating the Transaction, and shall not be otherwise used without COMVERGE’s prior written consent. H.I.G. agrees that it may disclose the Confidential Information only to those of its Representatives who need to know the Confidential Information for the purpose of assisting the Parties in connection with the Transaction. Prior to disseminating any of the Confidential Information to any agent and/or representative permitted herein, H.I.G. shall advise its Representative of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information, and shall require such Representative to agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and to be bound by terms of confidentiality at least as restrictive as the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, except as required by law, neither Party shall, and each Party shall direct its representatives to not, disclose to any person (i) the fact that Confidential Information has been made available to H.I.G. and its Representatives, (ii) the fact that the Parties are in discussions regarding the Transaction, or (iii) the terms and conditions of such discussions, including the status thereof. 4. No Export. H.I.G. will not export, directly or indirectly, any Confidential information acquired from COMVERGE pursuant to this Agreement, or any product utilizing such Confidential information, to any country, or any company located in any country, for which the U.S. Government or any agency thereof at the time of export requires an export license or other governmental approval without first obtaining written consent from COMVERGE and the appropriate license. 5. Standard of Protection. For the purpose of complying with the obligations set forth herein, H.I.G. shall use a reasonable standard of care, no less than efforts commensurate with those that it employs for the protection of its own confidential and sensitive information. 6. Compliance with Legal Process. In the event that H.I.G. or its Representatives is legally requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process or by applicable statutes, regulations or laws, including but not limited to the rules of any securities trading exchange or securities quotation system, or applicable professional standards of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or state boards of accountancy or obligations thereunder, to disclose any Confidential Information, H.I.G. shall, to the extent practicable and permitted by law, promptly notify COMVERGE of such request or requirement prior to disclosure so that COMVERGE may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any disclosure made pursuant to this paragraph shall not be in breach of this Agreement. 7. Ownership; Return of Information. Except as may otherwise set forth in a written agreement between the parties relating<|eot_id|> |
<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>Autocomplete the given text which is the part of a Non disclosure agreement.<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>ll include clause (E) thereof from and after such date. As used in the preceding sentence and in Section 2(f) below, an "affiliate" of any person means any other person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such first person. (f) If, by July 1, 1998 (if the merger of Acquiror into Patriot Hospitality, Inc. provided for in the Patriot-Acquiror Merger Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the"Patriot-Acquiror Merger") has not occurred by that date) or one (1) year after the closing of the Patriot-Acquiror Merger (if such merger has occurred prior to July 1, 1998), Samples has not entered into an agreement with the Acquiror (or any successor to or affiliate of the Acquiror or any such successor) concerning the development, franchise or operation of a hotel, then upon such date the term of the Restricted Period automatically shall be reduced from five (5) to three (3) years. (g) Except as otherwise expressly permitted hereby, the covenants in this Section 2 are intended to restrict Samples from competing in any manner with the Acquiror Companies, the Target Company and the Related Entities or the Business in the activities that have heretofore been carried on by the Acquiror Companies, the Target Company and the Related Entities. The obligations set forth in this Section above shall apply to actions by Samples, whether taken directly or indirectly, through any form of ownership, and whether as principal, officer, director, agent, employee, employer, consultant, stockholder or holder of any equity security (beneficially or as trustee of any trust), lender, partner, joint venturer or in any other individual or representative capacity whatsoever. However, none of the foregoing shall prevent Samples from (i) being the holder of up to 5% in the aggregate of any class of securities of any corporation engaged in the activities described above, provided that such securities are listed on a national securities exchange or reported on NASDAQ or (ii) being the holder of non-convertible debt securities of any entity. 3. Enforcement of Covenants. Samples acknowledges that a violation or attempted violation of any of the covenants and agreements in Section 2 above will cause such damage to the Acquiror Companies, the Target Company and the Related Entities as will be irreparable, the exact amount of which would be difficult to ascertain and for which there will be no adequate remedy at law, and accordingly, Samples agrees that each of the Acquiror Companies and the Target Company and any Related Entity shall be entitled as a matter of right to an injunction issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, restraining such violation or attempted violation of such covenants and agreements by Samples, or the employees, partners or agents of Samples, as well as recover from Samples any and all costs and <|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>expenses sustained or incurred by the Acquiror Companies and the Target Company and the Related Entities in obtaining such an injunction, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees. Samples agrees that no bond or other security shall be required in connection with such injunction. Samples further agrees that the Restricted Period shall be tolled during any period of violation thereof by Samples. Any exercise by any one or more of the Acquiror Companies and the Target Company and the Related Entities of their respective rights pursuant to this Section 3 shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedies to each of them may be entitled. 4. Intellectual Property. Samples recognizes and agrees that, on and after the date hereof, he will not have the right to use for his own account any of the service marks, trademarks, trade names, licenses, labels, trade secrets or customers' lists owned by or licensed to the Acquiror Companies, the Target Company or any of the Related Entities. 5. Consideration. As consideration for Samples' agreements provided herein, the Acquiror agrees to pay to Samples the total sum of $500,000, which amount shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the date hereof. Samples also acknowledges and agrees that, in addition thereto, he has received substantial consideration and benefit, direct and indirect, pursuant to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. 6. Validity. Samples acknowledges and agrees that each of the covenants contained herein is a reasonable limitation as to time, geographical area and scope of activity to be restrained and does not impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other interests of the Acquiror Companies and the Target Company and the Related Entities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if it should ever be held that any provision contained herein does not contain reasonable limitations as to time, geographical area or scope of activity to be restrained, then the court so holding shall at the request of any of the Acquiror Companies or the Target Comp<|eot_id|> |

<|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>erson under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. 10. Public Disclosure. Each of the Company and Investor acknowledge and agree that it will not, and it will cause its respective employees, representatives, affiliates and agents not to, publicly disclose, confirm or acknowledge the existence, or terms and conditions, of this Agreement, or the fact that the Company may be considering a possible Transaction with Investor, other than in a press release approved by each party hereto or as otherwise specifically agreed in writing by the parties hereto, except to the extent the Company believes in good faith, after consultation with counsel, it is required by any law, rule or listing requirement to make such disclosure, provided that the Company shall not identify the Investor or any of its affiliates by name without the Investor’s consent. 11. No License. Investor acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed as granting any rights, by license or otherwise, to Investor or any of its Representatives to any Evaluation Material, or to any copyrights, trademarks, service marks, patent rights, trade secrets, or other proprietary rights of the Company. 12. Third-Party Contacts. Neither Investor nor any of its Representatives shall knowingly contact any employee (other than the officers of the Company and other employees designated by such officers in the manner contemplated by this Agreement), supplier or customer of the Company regarding the Transaction or the Company’s prospects, without the Company’s prior written consent. 13. No Commitment. Each of the Company and Investor understands and agrees that no contract or agreement or binding obligation providing for or with respect to any Transaction shall be created or deemed to exist unless and until a definitive agreement has been executed and delivered with respect thereto, and that, unless and until a definitive agreement between the parties has been executed and delivered, no party has any legal obligation of any kind whatsoever to enter into or pursue a Transaction by virtue of this Agreement or any other written or oral expression, whether before or after the execution of this Agreement. 14. Equitable Remedies. Investor hereby agrees that a failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement would cause the Company irreparable harm and that monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy for an actual or threatened breach of thi<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>s Agreement by Investor or any of its Representatives because of the difficulty of ascertaining the amount of damage that will be suffered by the Company in the event that this Agreement is breached.

Either Party must promptly inform the other Party after becoming aware of any breach of this Agreement whether committed by Recipient itself or its Representatives. 5.3. Ownership – no rights intended 5.3.1. All Confidential Information shall remain the property of Discloser or its relevant Representative, as applicable. 5.3.2. The disclosure of Confidential Inf<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>ormation to Recipient or its Representatives shall not give Recipient or its Representatives any licence or other rights in relation to that Confidential Information beyond the rights contained in this Agreement. 5.3.3. Recipient shall not be entitled to file for patents or other statutory protection in any country based on any Confidential Information received hereunder. The disclosure of Confidential Information does not constitute any rights of prior use for Recipient 5.4. As is 5.4.1. With respect to the Confidential Information disclosed, Discloser provides the information "as is" and makes no repres<|eot_id|> |

The restrictions on disclosure and use of Confidential Information in this Agreement shall extend until the earlier of (a) the expiration of the period set forth in Section 14 of this Agreement, (b) the Parties’ entry into a separate, subsequent agreement that contains confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions that supersede this Agreement with respect to the Confidential Information, and (c) such time, if ever, the Confidential Information becomes publicly available (otherwise than through a breach of this Agreement). Except to the extent the Receiving Party’s legal counsel advises the Receiving Party that disclosure is required by applicable law or regulatory authority, without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party will not, and will direct the Receiving Party’s Representatives not to, disclose to any other Person that such Confidential Information has been requested or made available, that discussions or negotiations are taking place concerning the Possible Transaction, or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to the Possible Transaction, including the status thereof, or the term of this Agreement. 4. Requested Disclosure of Confidentialdential Information. 4.1 In the event that a Receiving Party or anyone to whom the Receiving Party transmits such Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement is legally requested (by oral questions, interrogatories, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) or otherwise required to disclose any Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party will, except as prohibited by law, provide the Disclosing Party with written notice of same, prior to disclosing such Confidential Information, so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive compliance with this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Receiving Party is nonetheless legally compelled to disclose such Confidential Information, it may, without liability hereunder, furnish only that portion of such Confidential Information that is legally required and will exercise reasonable commercial efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information. 4.2 If either Party, in its sole judgment, determines that it is required by applicable securities laws to make disclosures or public statements prohibited by Paragraph 3, the Party may make such disclosures or public statements as may be required by securities laws. The Disclosing Party shall provide the other Party with prior notice to the extent practicable. 5. No License; Use. Neither the execution of this Agreement, nor the furnishing of any materials or Confidential Information hereunder, shall be construed as granting or conferring any rights to the other Party, either expressly or by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any license under any trademark, patent, copyright, technological information or other information, or other intellectual property; provided, however, that a Person who has used or seen materials or information pursuant to this Agreement shall not be precluded from using or disclosing Residuals. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the Receiving Party’s right to independently develop information, materials, technology, or other products or services for itself or for others which may compete with the Disclosing Party so long as no disclosures or use in violation of this Agreement <|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>has been made by the Receiving Party. Furthermore, nothing herein shall be construed as a representation or inference by Receiving Party that it has not already developed, or may be in the process of developing, or may have already rightfully received or acquired from third parties, information similar to that Confidential Information to be disclosed by Disclosing Party hereunder. 6.

Confidential Information also includes any information described above which the Company obtains from another party and which the Company treats as proprietary or is required to treat as Confidential Information, whether or not owned or developed by the Company. NOTWITHSTANDING THE ABOVE, HOWEVER, NO INFORMATION CONSTITUTES CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION IF IT IS GENERIC INFORMATION OR GENERAL KNOWLEDGE WHICH COVENANTOR WOULD HAVE LEARNED IN THE COURSE OF SIMILAR EMPLOYMENT ELSEWHERE IN THE TRADE, IF SUCH INFORMATION IS LAWFULLY AVAILABLE TO COVENANTOR FROM A SOURCE OTHER THAN THE COMPANY, OR IF IT IS OTHERWISE PUBLICLY KNOWN AND IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. 1.3 The term <|eot_id|>

Notwithstanding the above, the party to whom Confidential Information was disclosed (the "RECIPIENT") shall not be in violation of this Section 3 with regard to a disclosure that was in response to a valid order by a court or other governmental body, provided that the Recipient provides the other party with prior written notice of such disclosure in order to permit the other party to seek confidential treatment of such information.

The covenants contained in this Section and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant o<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>r provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Any waiver by a Banking Organization under this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the Bank’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

The existence of any claim or cause of action Employee may have against a Banking Organization, including, but not limited to, the alleged material breach by a Banking Organization of any agreement with Employee, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by a Banking Organization of the covenants and obligations in this Agreement and shall not relieve Employee of his or her obligations under this Agreement. 15.

By granting me conditional access to information in this context, the United States Government and, with respect to PCII, the Authorized Entity, may seek any remedy available to it to enforce this Agreement including, but not limited to, application for a court order prohibiting disclosure of information in breach of this Agreement. I understand that if I violate the terms and conditions of this Agreement, I could be subjected to administrative, disciplinary, civil, or criminal action, as appropriate, under the laws, regulations, or directives applicable to the category of information involved and neither the United States Government nor the Authorized Entity have waived any statutory or common law evidentiary privileges or protections that they may assert in any administrative or court proceeding to protect any sensitive information to which I have been given conditional access under the terms of this Agreement. 11. Unless and until I am released in writing by an authorized representative of the Department of Homeland Security (if permissible for the particular category of information), I understand that all conditions and obligations imposed upon me by this Agreement apply during the time that I am granted conditional access, and at all times thereafter. 12. Each provision of this Agreement is severable. If a court should find any provision of this Agreement to be unenforceable, all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. 13. My execution of this Agreement shall not nullify or affect in any manner any other secrecy or non-disclosure Agreement which I have executed or may execute with the United States Government or any of its departments or agencies. 14. These restrictions are consistent with and do not supersede, conflict with, or otherwise alter the employee obligations, rights, or liabilities created by Executive Order No. 12958, as amended; Section 7211 of Title 5, United States Code (governing disclosures to Congress); Section 1034 of Title 10, United States Code, as amended by the Military Whistleblower Protection Act (governing disclosure to Congress by members of the military); Section 2302(b)(8) of Title 5, United States Code, as amended by the Whistleblower Protection Act (governing disclosures of illegality, waste, fraud, abuse or public health or safety threats); the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982 (50 USC 421 et seq.)

The definitions, requirements, obligations, rights, sanctions, and liabilities created by said Executive Order and listed statutes are incorporated into this agreement and are controlling. 15. Signing this Agreement does not bar disclosures to Congress or to an authorized official of an executive agency or the Department of Justice that are essential to reporting a substantial violation of law. 16. I represent and warrant that I have the authority to enter into this Agreement. 17. I have read this Agreement carefully and my questions, if any, have been answered. I acknowledge that the briefing officer has made available to me any laws, regulations, or directives referenced in this document so that I may read them at this time, if I so choose.

Confidential information (“Information”) means and includes, but is not limited to, the additional confidential and proprietary intellectual property regarding existing installations that is provided by the State Bar after submission of this agreement.

Company agrees that it will retain all Information provided in connection with the RFP in the strictest confidence, and will neither use nor disclose such Information to anyone other than those who, in each case, need to know the Information for the purpose of responding to this RFP. Company will use its best efforts to ensure that such individuals adhere to the NDA, and Company agrees that it will be responsible for any breach of this NDA by any of its employees, agents, autho<|eot_id|>

Company's confidentiality obligations hereunder will be continuing and will survive expiration or termination of the NDA. Company acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any breach of this NDA is inadequate and that, in addition to monetary damages, including but not limited to special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages, and any other available relief at law, whether based in contract, tort or otherwise, the State Bar will be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy without the need to (i) prove actual damages and/or (ii) post any bond or other security deposit in connection with such remedy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this NDA will not prohibit Company from disclosing any Information if required by an appropriate legal or regulatory authority, provided that, prior to any disclosure: (iii) Company provides the State Bar with prompt written notice of the required disclosure so that the State Bar may seek such protective order as it may deem appropriate; and (iv) disclosure of an<|eot_id|> |

EnCana agrees to be responsible for any breach of this letter agreement by any of its Representatives. 2. Non-Disclosure of Discussions. Each Party agrees that, without the prior written consent of the other party, such party and its Representatives will not disclose to any other person (oth<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>er than such party's Representative's on a need to know basis) the fact that any Evaluation Material has been made available hereunder, that discussions or negotiations are taking place concerning a possible Transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to the possible Transaction (including the status thereof); provided, that a party may make such disclosure if (i) based on the advice of such party's counsel, such disclosure is necessary to avoid committing a violation of, or to insure compliance with, any laws, rules or regulations, including any rules or regulations of any securities association, stock exchange or national securities quotation system and (ii) the disclosing party provides advance notice to the other party of the proposed disclosure and cooperates in good faith with respect to the timing, manner and content of such disclosure (to the extent consistent with its obligation to make disclosure). 3. Required Disclosure. In the event that EnCana or its Representatives are requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to disclose any of the Evaluation Material or any other facts or information, the disclosure of which is prohibited by this letter agreement, EnCana shall (i) provide TBI with prompt notice of any such request or requirement so that TBI may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this letter agreement and (ii) consult with TBI as to the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or narrow such request. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy, or the receipt of a waiver by TBI, EnCana or any of its Representatives should nonetheless, based on the advice of such party's counsel, disclose the Evaluation Material and/or the facts or information covered by Section 2, EnCana or its Representative may, without liability hereunder, disclose only that portion of the Evaluation Material and/or such facts or information that such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed; provided that EnCana gives TBI written notice of the Evaluation Material and/or such facts or other information to be disclosed as far in advance of its disclosure as is reasonably practicable and exercises its reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Evaluation Material and/or such facts or other information, including, without limitation, by cooperating with TBI to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment<|eot_id|> |

While Selling Shareholder is a resident of California, "Restricted Area" shall mean all counties and cities in the States of California and Nevada in which SAI, as of the Effective Time, carries on the Business. The covenant not to compete in the Restricted Area shall be construed as a series of separate covenants with regard to such city or county in the States of California and in Nevada. b. If Selling Shareholder ceases to be a resident of California, immediately upon Selling Shareholder's change of residency "Restricted Area" shall mean each state in which either Dollar Tree or SAI, as of the Effective Time, has a store or otherwise carries on the Business.

NO SOLICITATION AND NO HIRE OF EMPLOYEES. Unless the parties hereto otherwise agree, Selling Shareholder agrees that from July 22, 1998 until the end of the Restricted Period, Selling Shareholder has not and shall not, directly or indirectly, hire or attempt to hire any employee of Dollar Tree or SAI, or solicit, induce, or attempt to solicit or induce (other than through newspaper classified advertisements) any employee of Dollar Tree or SAI to leave his or her job for any reason whatsoever without the written consent of Dollar Tree.

BACKGROUND 2.1 The Buyer records that it is (and/or has been and/or will be) partaking in investigations of (and/or negotiations with) various Seller/s and/or Business/es, with a view towards potentially acquiring such Business/es. The Buyer further acknowledges that it is serious in its investigations towards potentially acquiring a Business. 2.2 The Buyer realises that, in the course of its investigations (and/or negotiations), Aldes, the Business/es and/or the Seller/s will be required to disclose Confidential Information and/or Confidential Material to the Buyer, albeit for the purposes of assisting the Buyer in determining whether or not it wishes to acquire any Business/es or otherwise. 2.3 The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the sole reason for, and the sole purpose of, any disclosures of Confidential Information and/or Confidential Material by Aldes, the Business/es and/or the Seller/s is strictly limited to that stated in clauses 2.1 and 2.2 above (the “Purpose”). 3. PERIOD 3.1 This Agreement shall be taken to have commenced, notwithstanding the signature date hereof, on the earliest of: 3.1.1 the date of signature of this agreement by the Buyer; or 3.1.2 the date of the first meeting or correspondence between Aldes and the Buyer regarding any Business/es and/or Seller/s; and shall continue in perpetuity thereafter. 4. UNDERTAKING OF CONFIDENTIALITY 4.1 The Buyer undertakes, towards and in favour of each of Aldes, the Business/es and the Seller/s (jointly and severally), with regard to and in respect of any and all of the Confidential Information and/or Confidential Materials, that it will keep same (irrespective of how same was disclosed to the Buyer) strictly confidential and secret and that it will hold same in absolute trust and confidence. 4.2 The Seller/s and/or the Business/es shall retain ownership of all their Confidential Information and/or Confidential Materials, which shall be deemed to be lent to the Buyer for the Purpose only. 5. LIABILITY 5.1 The Buyer acknowledges that it will be liable, responsible and accountable to each of Aldes, the Business/es and the Seller/s (jointly and severally) for a breach of this Agreement by itself or any of its related or inter related parties, employees, consultants, advisers and/or agents. 6. NON-CIRCUMVENT 6.1 The Buyer acknowledges that Aldes will be deemed and regarded (and will be) <|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>the effective cause of any transaction which may transpire and/or materialise between the Buyer and any Business/es and/or Seller/s. 6.2 The Buyer warrants and guarantees that it will never circumvent Aldes (albeit directly itself or indirectly through any of its subsidiaries, holding companies, group companies, related parties and/or inter-related parties or otherwise indirectly), in negotiating or concluding any transactions, arrangements and/or agreements contemplated in clauses 2.1 and/or 2.2 above with (or with regard to) any Seller/s and/or Business/es. For avoidance of doubt, the Buyer will at all times act in good faith and will only transact and deal with Seller/s and/or Business/es, via the brokerage, intervention and mediation of Aldes. 6.3 The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Aldes is, will be and will remain entitled to receipt of its agreed brokerage commission (albeit due and payable by the Seller/s, the Business/es, the Buyer or any of them), should the Buyer (albeit directly itself or indirectly through any of its subsidiaries, holding companies, group companies, related parties and/or inter-related parties or otherwise indirectly) or anyone else the Buyer may have introduced to the Business/es and/or Seller/s, conclude any agreements and/or transactions contemplated in clauses 2.1 and/or 2.2 above with (or with regard to) any Business/es and/or Seller/s. 7. GENERAL 7.1 No alteration or variation to or of this Agreement shall be of any force or effect unless it is recorded in writing and signed by the Buyer and Aldes. 7.2 Any indulgence, latitude or extension of time which may be allowed by either of Aldes, the Seller/s and/or the Business/es shall not under any circumstances be taken as preventing any of them from exercising their rights contained in this Agreement. 8. BUYER’S INFORMATION 8.1 The Buyer notes that Aldes’ decision to introduce any Business/es for sale to the Buyer (and the Seller/s and/or Business/es decision to enter into discussions with the Buyer) is, in part, based on the information presented by the Buyer under and in terms of the Buyer’s Profile on the face of this Agreement. As such, the Buyer warrants and guarantees that all information presented and provided via and in terms of the Buyer’s Profile was, is and will remain true, complete and accurate and that it will immediately inform Aldes should there be any change in the information provided/presented. 9. FURTHER CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS 9.1 Aldes may from time to time, dependant on the nature, scope and extent of information to be provided to the Buyer, require that the Buyer enter into and conclude further and/or additional confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. Should the Buyer fail and/or refuse to enter into and conclude such further agreements, Aldes may, in its sole and absolute discretion, refuse to disclose further information to the Buyer regarding any and/or all Seller/s and/or Business/es. 9.2 It is noted and agreed that the Buyer and certain of the Seller/s and/or Business/es may from time to time enter into and conclude one or more confidentiality and/or non-disclosure agreements amongst, by and between themselves. It is noted and agreed that those agreem<|eot_id|> |

<|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>Exhibit 10.22 NON-DISCLOSURE, NON-COMPETITION, AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT This Non-Disclosure, Non-Competition, and Non-Solicitation Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into effective as of April 1, 2004 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Level 3 Communications, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Level 3” or the “Buyer”), on the one hand, and ICG Communications, Inc. (the “Parent”), a Delaware corporation, and ICG Telecom Group, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, and for and on behalf of any of their direct or indirect parents, subsidiaries, successors, or Affiliates (collectively referred to as “ICG” or the “Sellers”), on the other hand. RECITALS A. The Sellers are engaged in conducting a dial-up ISP business whereby the Sellers provide Internet access and other Internet-related services to Internet service providers and their customers. B. The Buyer and Sellers are parties to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of April 1, 2004, pursuant to which Level 3 is purchasing from Sellers certain of Sellers’ assets (the “Acquired Assets”) used or held for use by Sellers in conducting the Sellers’ dial-up ISP business whereby the Company provides dial-up Internet access to Internet service providers and their customers, excluding the Company’s direct Internet access and primary rate interface businesses (the “Business”), as more fully described therein. Contemporaneous with this Agreement, Buyer and Sellers are closing and consummating the principal transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. C. Sellers acknowledge that the Buyer would not enter into or close the Purchase Agreement without Sellers’ agreement to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the execution of this Agreement by Sellers is a condition precedent to the Buyer’s obligation to close under the Purchase Agreement. AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the closing thereunder and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: ARTICLE 1 NON-DISCLOSURE, NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION 1.1 Non-Disclosure. Sellers shall not disclose or appropriate for their own use, or for the use of any third party, at any time, any trade secrets or confidential or proprietary information included in or related to the Acquired Assets or the Business as previously operated by Sellers, whether or not developed by Sellers including, without limitation, information pertaining to the customers, vendors, prices, profits, contract terms or operating procedures of Sellers relating to the Business or the Acquired Assets; provided, however, that Sellers may use any such trade secrets and confidential or proprietary information (a) if and to the extent used in their businesses other than the Business and (b) in connection with providing services pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement. 1.2 Non-Competition. For a period of three (3) years from and after the Effective Date (the “Restrictive Period”), Sellers shall not engage, directly or indirectly, through any other entity or with any person (whether as an owner, shareholder, partner, member, director, officer, employee, agent, investor, or otherwise), in any business activity which is in competition with the Business conducted by Buyer during the Restrictive Period. The foregoing<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> restrictions shall, however, apply only for a one-year period from and after the Effective Date with respect to any successor of any Seller who is not engaged in the same type of business as the Business as of the Effective Date and shall not apply at all with respect to any successor, other than Sellers and any of their Affiliates as of the Effective Date, that is engaged in the same type of business as the Business. Because Sellers’ Business is nationwide, Sellers agree that they will not so compete anywhere in the United States (the “Territory”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers may, during the 60-day period following the Effective Date, provide services in the Business to those customers delineated on Schedule 1.02(c) of the Purchase Agreement, subject to and in accordance with Section 5.08 of the Purchase Agreement; provided such services shall be provided solely pursuant to the customer contracts listed on such Schedule 1.02(c) and the amount of such service shall not be materially greater than that provided to such customers by Sellers during the 60-day period prior to the Effective Date. 1.3 Non-Solicitation. During the Restrictive Period, without the prior written consent of the Buyer (which Buyer may withhold in the exercise of its sole, absolute, and arbitrary discretion), Sellers (including, without limitation, any successors) shall not induce or solicit, directly or indirectly, through any other entity or with any other person, (whether as an owner, shareholder, partner, member, director, officer, employee, agent, investor, or otherwise) any employee of the Buyer or its Affiliates who is involved in the managed modem business conducted by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, the Business, to terminate the employee’s employment with the Buyer or any such Affiliate. 1.4 Remedies. Any breach of any of the covenants set forth in this Article 1 would result in irreparable damage to the Buyer. Consequently, and without limiting other remedies which may exist for a breach of this Agreement, the Buyer will have the right to enforce such covenants by obtaining a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, and permanent injunction restraining any violation hereof, pending or following a trial on the merits, without posting any bond and in addition to all other remedies available to the Buyer at law or in equity. 1.5 Reasonableness of Covenants.

Vector understands and acknowledges that, except pursuant to a final definitive agreement regarding any transactions contemplated hereby, when, as and if executed, and subject to such limitations and restrictions as may be specified therein, (i) neither Captaris nor any of’ its Representatives make any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Evaluation Material, (ii) nei<|eot_id|>
<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>ther Captaris nor its Representatives shall have any liability to Vector or to any of its Representatives relating to or resulting from the use of the Evaluation Material or any errors therein or omissions therefrom, and (iii) only those representations or warranties which are made in any such final definitive agreement will have any legal effect. Captaris agrees that, for a period ending eight weeks after the date of this letter agreement, it will afford Vector and its Representatives, reasonable access to the information described in Exhibit A and the books, contracts, commitments and records of Captaris and its subsidiaries relevant thereto, unless and until Vector and Captaris have reached a non-binding consensus regarding basic deal terms, at which time access will broaden to include all other information concerning the business, properties and personnel (subject to restrictions imposed by applicable law) of Captaris and its Subsidiaries as Vector may reasonably request and that is in the possession or control of Captaris. In consideration of the Evaluation Material being furnished by Captaris hereunder, Vector hereby agrees that, for a period of twelve months from the date hereof, it will not, and will not encourage or assist its affiliates to, solicit for employment (a) any officers or other senior key employees of Captaris or any of its business units so long as they are employed by the Captaris or its business units, without obtaining the prior written consent of Captaris, and (b) any of the other employees of Captaris or any of its business units with whom Vector has had contact or who Vector first became aware of during the period of its investigation of Captaris, so long as they are employed by the Captaris or its business units, without obtaining the prior written consent of Captaris. Nothing in the foregoing clause (b) shall preclude Vector from hiring any person who (i) initiates discussions with Vector regarding such employment without any direct or indirect solicitation by Vector, (ii) has ceased to be employed by Captaris prior to commencement of direct or indirect employment discussions between Vector and such person, or (iii) responds to any general solicitation placed by Vector or any recruitment agency on Vector’s behalf. Vector agrees that, for a period (the “Standstill Period”) ending on the earliest of (i) six months from the date of this agreement and (ii) the occurrence of a “Significant Event” (as defined below), unless it shall have been specifically invited in writing by Captaris, neither Vector nor any of its affiliates (as such term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) will in any manner, directly or indirectly, (a) effect or publicly seek, offer or propose to effect, or cause or participate in or in any way assist any other person to effect or publicly seek, offer or propose to effect or participate in, (i) any acquisition of 5% or more of the securities (or beneficial ownership thereof) or consolidated assets (including securities of subsidiaries) of Captaris; (ii) any tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination involving Captaris or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) any recapitalization, restructuring, liquidation, dissolution or other extraordinary transaction with respect to Captaris or any of its subsidiaries; or (iv) any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission) or consents to vote any voting securities<|eot_id|> |

<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> the same care and discretion as it uses with its own confidential information to avoid, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, disclosure or publication of Discloser’s Confidential Information. At a minimum shall Recipient use reasonable care to protect Confidential Information. 5. Ownership. All Confidential Information remains the property of the Discloser and/or its licensors. 6. Freedom of Use. Recipient shall be free to use for any purposes Residuals resulting from access to or work with Discloser’s Confidential Information. However, the foregoing does not give Recipient the right to disclose the financial, statistical, or personnel information or the business plans of Discloser, and shall not be deemed to grant to either party a license under the other party’s copyrights or patents. The term "Residuals" means information which may be retained in non-tangible form by persons who have had access to the Confidential Information, including without limitation general ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained therein. Neither party shall have any obligation to limit or restrict the assignment or reassignment of personnel.

Additionally, information furnished by Discloser shall be deemed Confidential Information if it is obvious from its content, in the context under which it is furnished. 3. Subsequent Notice of Confidentiality. Discloser may give notice in writing that written or verbal information that has been previously furnished, but not declared confidential, is in fact confidential. This information is to be treated as Confidential Information by Recipient from the time of receipt of said notice. That being said, Recipient shall make every reasonable effort to mark all written copies of such information under its control as “Confidential” or “Proprietary” and to make every reasonable effort to inform Discloser of any disclosures by Recipient to third parties of such information that may have occurred between the time of receipt of the information and r<|eot_id|>

No warranty or representation is made by Discloser that any information transmitted by it hereunder is true and correct, patentable or copyrightable, or that any such information involves concepts or embodiments that are free of infringement of other rights. 8. Equitable Relief. Discloser and Recipient agree that it would be impossible or inadequate to measure and calculate Discloser’s damages from any breach of the covenants set forth herein, especially with regard any breach associated with Confidential Information that was to be maintained behind the Information Barrier. Accordingly, the Recipient agrees that in the event of a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement, Discloser will have available, in addition to any other right or remedy available, the right to obtain an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining such breach or threatened breach and to specific performance of any such provision of this Agreement. Recipient further agrees that no bond or other security shall be required in obtaining such equitable relief and that Recipient hereby consents to the issuance of such injunction and to the ordering of specific performance. If any action or proceeding is brought to enforce this Agreement because of an alleged or actual dispute, breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement, should it prevail, Discloser shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in such action or proceeding in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled. 9.
