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

 

and their subsidiaries their good will and other proprietary rights, if a final
judicial determination is made by a court having jurisdiction that the time or
territory or any other restriction contained in Section 6(a) hereof is an
unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Executive, the

amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such other extent
as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be reasonable.

by the Executive under this Agreement should be considered a “Work Made for
Hire” as the phrase is defined by the U.S. patent laws and shall be owned by and
for the express benefit of HNC, HNC Bank and their subsidiaries and affiliates. 
In the event it should be established that such work does not qualify as a Work
Made for Hire, Executive agrees to and does hereby assign to HNC, HNC Bank, and
their affiliates and subsidiaries, all of her rights, title, and/or interest in
such work product, including, but not limited to, all copyrights, patents,
trademarks, and propriety rights.

9.                                       Indemnification.  To the extent that
the HNC and HNC Bank has officers’ and directors’ liability insurance coverage
covering the acts of Executive, HNC and HNB shall, subject to the exclusions and
limitations set forth therein, indemnify and hold harmless Executive if she is
made a party, is threatened to be made a party to, or otherwise receives any
other legal process in any action, suit, or proceeding by reason of the fact
that she was an officer or employee of HMS, HNC, or HNC Bank.  Executive shall
