of trust and confidence with Employer during the Term, and has and will continue

(b)           Covenant Not to Compete.  Executive hereby agrees that for a
period commencing on the Effective Date and ending twelve (12) months after the
termination of Executive’s employment, as set forth in Paragraph 7(c), below,
(the “Restrictive Period”), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, as
employee, agent, consultant, stockholder, director, co-partner or in any other
individual or representative capacity, own, operate, manage, control, engage in,
invest in or participate in any manner in, act as a consultant or advisor to,
render services for (alone or in association with any person, firm, corporation

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

that Employer is engaged in business worldwide; that Employer competes on a
worldwide basis; and that this restrictive covenant is reasonable and necessary
on a worldwide basis.

8.           Non-Solicitation of Employees

Other than in the performance of his duties hereunder, during the Restrictive
Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, as employee, agent,
consultant, stockholder, director, co-partner or in any other individual or
representative capacity, employ or engage, recruit or solicit for employment or
engagement, any person who was, is or becomes employed or engaged by Employer
during the Restrictive Period, or otherwise seek to influence or alter any such
person’s relationship with Employer.
 
9.           Confidential Information

Executive recognizes and acknowledges that Employer has developed and will
develop, and may disclose to Executive, certain proprietary information relating
to the Business and software to be used in connection therewith, which
information gives Employer a competitive advantage over those in its field who
do not have such information and for which it has taken reasonable efforts to
maintain the secrecy thereof (“Confidential Information”).  Executive will not,
during or after the Term, disclose such Confidential Information to any person,
firm, corporation, association or other entity for any reason or purpose
whatsoever other than on behalf of Employer in the ordinary course of its
business, nor shall Executive make use of any such Confidential Information for
his own purposes or for the benefit of any person, firm, corporation or other
entity (except Employer) under any circumstances during or after the term of his
employment.  As used herein, Confidential Information does not include any
information that (a) was previously known to Executive free of any obligation of
confidentiality; (b) is in the public domain or generally known at the time of
disclosure or thereafter becomes part of the public domain or generally known
through no fault of Executive; or (c) is required to be disclosed by law or
regulation or judicial decree, provided, however, that Executive shall, to the
extent practicable, give Employer prior written notice of any such disclosure
and shall cooperate with Employer in obtaining a protective order or such
similar protection as Employer may deem appropriate.  Executive acknowledges and
agrees that all memoranda, books, papers, letters, formulae, software and other
data, and all copies thereof in whatever form, that embody or contain
Confidential Information, whether made by him or otherwise coming into his
possession, are owned exclusively by Employer and on termination of his
employment, or on demand of Employer, at any time, to deliver the same to
Employer.

10.           Assignment of Inventions

If Executive individually or jointly made or conceived of any invention,
technique, process, or other know-how, whether patentable or not, in the course
of performing services for Employer (collectively “inventions”), Executive
agrees to assign to Employer Executive’s entire right, title and interest in any
such inventions.  Executive further agrees to promptly disclose any such
inventions to Employer and will, upon request, promptly sign a specific
assignment of title to Employer and assist in any way reasonably necessary to
enable Employer to secure patent, trade secret or any other proprietary rights
in the United States or foreign countries.  This Paragraph does not apply to any
invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility or trade secret information
of Employer was used and which was developed entirely on Executive’s own time,
unless: (1) the invention relates (a) to the business of Employer or (b) to
Employer’s actual demonstratively anticipated research or development; or (2)
the invention results from any work performed by Executive for Employer.

11.           Remedies for Enforcement of Restrictive Covenants

 
4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(a)           Blue-Pencil.     If any court of competent jurisdiction shall deem
any provision in Paragraphs 7-10 (collectively, “Restrictive Covenants”) too
restrictive, the other provisions of the Restrictive Covenants shall stand, and
the court shall modify the Restrictive Covenants to the point of greatest
restriction permissible by law.

(b)           Remedies.     Executive acknowledges and agrees that the
Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and necessary for the protection of
Employer’s business interests, that irreparable injury will result to Employer
if Executive breaches any of the terms of said Restrictive Covenants, and that
in the event of Executive’s actual or threatened breach of any such Restrictive
Covenants, Employer will have no adequate remedy at law.  Executive accordingly
agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by him of any of the
Restrictive Covenants, Employer shall be entitled to immediate temporary
injunctive and other equitable relief, without bond and without the necessity of
showing actual monetary damages, subject to hearing as soon thereafter as
possible.  Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting Employer
from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened
breach, including the recovery of any damages which it is able to prove.

(c)           Attorneys’ Fees.     If Employer commences litigation to enforce
or protect its  rights as set forth in Paragraphs 7-10, above, and prevails,
Employer shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, reasonable
litigation expenses and court costs relating to such litigation, in addition to
all other entitled relief, including but not limited to damages and injunctive
relief.

12.          Executive Assistance

Both during and after Executive’s employment with Employer, Executive shall,
upon reasonable notice, furnish Employer with such information as may be in
Executive’s possession or control, and cooperate with Employer, as Employer may
reasonably request (with due consideration to Executive’s business activities
and obligations after the Term), in connection with any litigation, claim, or
other dispute in which Employer or any of its affiliates is or may become a
party.  Employer shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by Executive in fulfilling Executive’s obligations under this
Paragraph.

13.          Arbitration

Except for disputes arising out of an alleged violation of the Restrictive
Covenants set forth in Paragraphs 7-11, any controversy or claim arising out of
or relating to any provision of this Agreement or any other document or
agreement referred to herein (including, but not limited to any stock option
plan) shall be resolved by arbitration.  The arbitration process shall be
instigated by either party giving written notice to the other of the desire for
arbitration and the factual allegations underlying the basis for the
dispute.  The arbitration shall be conducted by such alternative dispute
resolution service as is agreed to by the parties, or, failing such agreement
within thirty (30) days after such dispute arises, by arbitrators selected as
described below in accordance with the rules and procedures established by the
American Arbitration Association.  Only a person who is a practicing lawyer
admitted to a state bar may serve as an arbitrator.  Each party shall select one
arbitrator, and those arbitrators shall choose a third arbitrator; these
arbitrators shall constitute the panel.  The American Arbitration Association
rules for employment arbitration shall control any discovery conducted in
connection with the arbitration.  The expenses of arbitration (other than
attorneys’ fees) shall be shared as determined by arbitration.  Each side to the
claim or controversy shall pay their own attorneys’ fees.  Any result reached by
the panel shall be binding on all parties to the arbitration, and no appeal may
be taken.  It is agreed that any party to any award rendered in such arbitration
proceeding may seek a judgment upon the award and that judgment may be entered
thereon by any court having jurisdiction.  The arbitration shall be conducted in
Fulton County, Georgia.
