be entitled to appropriate injunctive relief, including, without limitation,
preliminary and permanent injunctions, in the Supreme Court of the State of New
York located in the County of New York or the United States District Court,

Executive (solely or jointly with others) either in the course of his
employment, on the Company’s time, with the Company’s materials or facilities,
relating to any subject matter with which his work for the Company is or may be
concerned, or relating to any business in which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliated companies is involved, or (ii) by or for the Company,
or (iii) by any independent individual or Person and thereafter acquired by the
Company, and which are within the Executive’s knowledge or possession in the
case of (i) above or that come into the Executive’s knowledge or possession
during and in the course of the Executive’s employment hereunder in the case of
(ii) or (iii) above, shall be, if created, developed, conceived of or discovered
by the Executive, promptly disclosed to the Company, or shall be, if otherwise
developed or acquired by the Company, received by the Executive as an employee
of the Company and not in any way for his own benefit. Executive shall neither
have nor obtain any right, title or interest in or to such Proprietary Property
unless and until the Company shall expressly and in writing waive the rights
that it has therein and thereto under the provisions of this sentence. With
respect to any and all Proprietary Property that is invented, created, written,
developed, furnished or produced by the Executive, or suggested by the Executive
to the Company, during the term of the Executive’s employment under this
Agreement, Executive does hereby agree that all such Proprietary Property shall

in and to any results or proceeds therefrom. At any time, whether during or
after the term of this Agreement, the Executive will, upon the request and at

all steps necessary to enable the Company to publish or protect said Proprietary
Property by patents or otherwise in any and all countries and to render all such
assistance as the Company may require in any patent office proceeding or
litigation involving said Proprietary Property. The Executive shall not, without
limitation as to time or place, use any Proprietary Property except on Company
business, during or after his period of employment, nor disclose the same to any
other Person or individual except for disclosure on Company business or as may
be required by law.

technical information not generally known in the Company’s industry and which is
disclosed to Executive or known or developed by Executive as a consequence of or
through his employment with the Company.

remainder hereof.
