5. Protection of Trade Secrets and Confidential Information.
 
    A. Definition of “Confidential Information.  “Confidential Information”

business, including particularly but not by way of limitation trade secrets
used, developed or acquired by the Company in connection with its business;

contractors and vendors; the nature of fees and charges made to the Company’s
customers; nonpublic forms, contracts and other documents used in the Company’s
business; the nature and content of computer software used in the Company’s
business, whether proprietary to the Company or used by the Company under
license from a third party; and all other information concerning the Company’s
concepts, prospects, customers, employees, contractors, earnings, products,
services, equipment, systems and/or prospective and executed contracts and other
business arrangements.
 
    B. Employee’s Use of Confidential Information.  Except in connection with
and in furtherance of Employee’s work on the Company’s behalf, Employee shall
not, without the Company’s prior written consent, at any time, directly or
indirectly, use, disclose or otherwise communicate any Confidential Information
to any person or entity.
 
    C. Acknowledgments.  Employee acknowledges that during the term of his
employment, Employee will have access to Confidential Information, all of which
shall be made accessible to Employee only in strict confidence; that
unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information will damage the Company’s
business; that Confidential Information would be susceptible to immediate
competitive application by a competitor of the Company; that the Company’s
business is substantially dependent on access to and the continuing secrecy of
Confidential Information; that Confidential Information is unique to the Company
and known only to Employee, the Company and certain key employees and
contractors of the Company; that the Company shall at all times retain ownership
and control of all Confidential Information; and that the restrictions contained
in this paragraph are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the
Company’s business.
 
    D. Records Containing Confidential Information.  All documents or other
records containing or reflecting Confidential Information (“Confidential
Documents”) prepared by or provided to Employee are and shall remain the
Company’s property.  Except with the Company’s prior written consent, Employee
shall not copy or use any Confidential Document for any purpose not relating
directly to Employee’s work on the Company’s behalf, or use, disclose or sell
any Confidential Document to any party.  Upon the termination of Employee’s
employment or upon the Company’s request, Employee shall immediately deliver to
the Company or its designee (and shall not keep in Employee’s possession or
deliver to anyone else) all Confidential Documents and all other property
belonging to the Company.  This paragraph shall not bar Employee from complying
with any subpoena or court order, provided that Employee shall at the earliest
practicable date provide a copy of the subpoena or court order to the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company.
 
    E. Employee’s Former Employers’ Confidential Information.  Employee shall
not, during Employee’s employment with the Company, improperly use or disclose
to the Company any proprietary information or trade secrets belonging to any

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

 

6. Non-Solicitation.  During the term of Employee’s employment, Employee shall
not, without the Company’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly:
 
    A. Cause or attempt to cause any employee, agent, distributor, endorser or
contractor of the Company to terminate his or her employment, agency,
distributor, endorser or contractor relationship with the Company; interfere or
attempt to interfere with the relationship between the Company and any employee,
agent, distributor, endorser or contractor of the Company or hire or attempt to
hire any employee, agent, distributor, endorser or contractor of the Company; or
 
    B. Solicit business from any customer or client served by the Company at any
point during the term of Employee’s employment; or interfere or attempt to
interfere with any transaction, agreement or business relationship in which the
Company was involved at any point during the term of Employee’s employment.
 
7. Non-Competition.  During the Term, Employee shall not, without the Company’s
prior consent, (which will not be unreasonably withheld), directly or indirectly
engage in any business that is in direct competition with the business conducted
by the Company anywhere in the United States, whether as proprietor, partner,
joint venturer, employer, agent, employee, consultant, officer, or beneficial or
record owner of more than 2% of the stock of a corporation, business, or
association.  For purposes of this Section, a business is “in competition” with
the Company if it engages in business in the manufacturing and distribution of
nutritional products/healthy foods and beverages through retail distribution
(excluding sales via the internet), without giving the Company a first right of
refusal to participate with the Employee or any entity he may control.  However,
Employee will not be prohibited from owning securities in a business in
competition with the Company if the securities are listed on a stock exchange or
traded on the over-the-counter market.  Employee specifically acknowledges and
agrees that the Company’s business covers the market area identified above, and
agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section are reasonable in scope
under California law.

8. Survival.  Employee’s obligations under this Agreement shall survive the
termination of Employee’s employment and shall thereafter be enforceable whether
or not such termination is later claimed or found to be wrongful or to
constitute or result in a breach of any contract or of any other duty owed or
claimed to be owed by the Company to Employee.
 
9. Remedies.  Employee acknowledges that upon a breach of any obligation under
this Agreement, the Company will suffer immediate and irreparable harm and
damage for which money alone cannot fully compensate the Company.  Employee
therefore agrees that upon such breach or threat of imminent breach of any
obligation under this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to, and Employee
shall not oppose entry of, a temporary restraining order, preliminary
injunction, permanent injunction or other injunctive relief, without posting any
bond or other security, barring Employee from violating any such provision. This
paragraph shall not be construed as an election of any remedy, or as a waiver of
any right available to the Company under this Agreement or the law, including
the right to seek damages from Employee for a breach of any provision of this
Agreement, nor shall this paragraph be construed to limit the rights or remedies
available under California law for any violation of any provision of this
Agreement.
 
10. Miscellaneous.
 
    A. Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the Company and Employee and supersedes all prior oral or written
agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof.
 
    B. Heirs and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon Employee’s
heirs, executors, administrators or other legal representatives, shall inure to
the benefit of the Company, its successors or assigns, and shall be freely
assignable by the Company, but not by Employee.  In the event the employee dies,
the Company agrees to continue COBRA payments for the benefit of his heirs for
the original term of the agreement.

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

 
 
    C. Governing Law.  This Agreement and all other disputes or issues arising
from or relating in any way to the Company’s relationship with Employee, shall
be governed by the internal laws of the State of California, irrespective of the
choice of law rules of any jurisdiction.
 
    D. Severability.  If any court of competent jurisdiction declares any
provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the
Agreement shall remain fully enforceable.  To the extent that any court
concludes that any provision of this Agreement is void or voidable, the court
shall reform such provision(s) to render the provision(s) enforceable, but only
to the extent absolutely necessary to render the provision(s) enforceable and
only in view of the parties’ express desire that the Company be protected to the
greatest extent possible under applicable law from improper competition and/or
the misuse or disclosure of trade secrets, Confidential Documents and/or
Confidential Information.
 
    E. Disputes.  Any action arising from or relating any way to this Agreement,
or otherwise arising from or relating to Employee’s employment with the Company,
shall be tried only in the state or federal courts situated in Denver,
California.  The parties consent to jurisdiction and venue in those courts to
the greatest extent possible under law.  The prevailing party in any action to
enforce any provision of this Agreement shall recover all costs and attorneys’
fees incurred in connection with the action.
 
    F. Prior Agreements. This agreement supersedes all prior agreements between
Employee and the Company relating to the subject of Employee’s employment with
the Company and may only be amended by written instrument signed by Employee and
the Member of the Board of the Company.
