Re:        Amended and Restated Employment Agreement

Dear Kevin:

Dialogic Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to confirm the terms and conditions of
your continuing employment in your new role as the Company’s President and Chief
Operating Officer as set forth in this letter agreement (the “Agreement”). This
Agreement is effective on December 5, 2011 (“Effective Date”). This Agreement
amends and supersedes in its entirety the employment letter agreement entered
into by and between the Company and you on September 3, 2008, as amended on
May 20, 2010 (the “Prior Agreement”). The terms of your continuing employment
are as follows:

1. Duties. You will be responsible for operational activities that are assigned
to you, including but not limited to sales, services and marketing, engineering
and product development for the Company and its affiliates. You will report to
the Chief Executive Officer. You shall devote your best efforts and full
business time, skill and attention to the performance of your duties. You are
required to adhere to the general employment policies and practices of the
Company that may be in effect from time to time, except that when the terms of
this Agreement conflict with the Company’s general employment policies or
practices, this Agreement will control. The Company may change your position,
duties, work location and compensation from time to time in its discretion.

2. On-Target Compensation – which consists of the components described below as
set out in Sections 2(a), 2(b) and 2(c):

 

  a) Annual Base Salary – You will be paid an annual base salary of $500,000 USD
less applicable deductions and withholdings, to be paid in accordance with the
Company’s payroll practices, as may be in effect from time to time. Statement of
salary as an annual amount does not negate the at-will provisions of this
Agreement.

 

  b)

On-Target Commission – You will be eligible to earn commission under the terms
and conditions of the Company’s incentive plan in effect from time to time. 100%
achievement of your annual target would result in commissionable earnings of
$300,000 USD per annum. Commissionable earnings are not capped and are not
guaranteed. Your annual target is based

on attaining revenue results as defined by the Board of Directors for the
current fiscal year (Sales-in Revenue). Your annual target for future fiscal
years will be set by the Company at the beginning of each fiscal year.
Commissions are paid in accordance with the terms of the Commission Plan in
effect during the applicable fiscal year. Any earned commission will be paid on
or prior to March 15th of the year following the year in which the commission
ceased to be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. You must be employed
by Company on the day that your annual commission (if any) is paid in order to
earn the commission. Therefore, if your employment is terminated either by you
or the Company for any reason prior to the commission being paid, you will not
have earned the commission and no partial or prorated commission will be paid.

 

  c)

Performance Incentive Award – In addition to the Annual Base Salary and
On-Target Commission, you will also be eligible to earn an annual performance
incentive award beginning with fiscal year 2012. At the end of fiscal year 2012
or following fiscal years, 100% achievement of the Company’s EBITDA performance
objectives would result in an annual performance incentive award payment of
$100,000 USD. The annual performance incentive award payment which you actually
earn in any given year will be prorated based on the percentage of the Company’s
EBITDA performance objectives actually achieved through the end of that fiscal
year. For example this means that a 50% achievement of the Company’s EBITDA
performance objectives would result in an annual performance incentive award
payment of $50,000 and a 25% achievement of the Company’s EBITDA performance
objectives would result in an annual performance incentive award payment of
$25,000. This performance incentive award is not capped and is not guaranteed.
The Company’s EBITDA performance objectives to which your performance incentive
award is tied shall be determined by the Board (or duly authorized committee
thereof) at its sole discretion. Any earned performance incentive award payment
shall be paid on or prior to March 15th of the year following the year for which
the performance incentive award was earned. Except as set out in Section 9(b),
you must be employed by Company on the day that your performance incentive award
(if any) is paid in order to earn it. If your employment is terminated by you
for any reason other than Good Reason, or if your employment is terminated by
Company for Cause, or by either party as a result of your death or disability
prior to the performance incentive award being paid, you will not have earned
the performance incentive award and no partial or prorated performance incentive
award will be paid.

3. Special Guarantee – The Company agrees that you are eligible to earn an
additional payment of up to $100,000 per year for the next 2 calendar years
(2012 and 2013), which payments vest and are paid in installments according to
the following schedule: $50,000 on February 15, 2012, $50,000 on August 15,
2012, $50,000 on February 15, 2013 and $50,000 on August 15, 2013 (or closest
payroll period according to the Company’s payroll practices at the time of
payment), provided that you remain in the employ of the Company at the date a
payment is to be made. In the event that your employment with Company terminates
for any reason, no special guarantee amounts are earned or payable after your
termination date.

4. Stock Options – Provided that such grant is approved by Company’s Board of
Directors and provided you execute all necessary documentation requested by the
Company (including the standard letter issued to accept such options), you will
be issued 350,000 stock options in Company pursuant to the terms of Dialogic’s
stock option plan in effect at the date of grant and as such stock option plan
may be modified from time to time.

5. Benefits. The Company will continue to provide you an opportunity to
participate in the Company’s broad-based medical, dental, life, supplemental
life, and disability insurance policies, as well as sick leave, and other
Company-sponsored benefits and programs on the same terms and conditions as such
benefits are generally offered to similarly situated employees. The Company may,
from time to time, change these benefits in its discretion. Additional
information regarding these benefits is available for your review upon request.

6. Auto Allowance. The Company agrees to continue to provide a monthly auto
allowance of $500 USD (subject to applicable tax withholdings) in recognition of
your use of your automobile in the course of business, plus mileage
reimbursement as determined by Company policy. You agree to ensure that adequate
and legally required insurance is in place on the automobile(s) that you use in
the course of business and that you have a valid driver’s license issued by your
state of residence.

7. Travel. This position is a position that requires frequent travel. You agree
to comply with the Company’s standard travel policies as published on the
Company intranet, and as otherwise communicated by the Company from time to
time. However, by exception to the foregoing, the Company agrees that you may
fly Business Class for travel to Europe or Asia.

8. Vacation. We agree to continue to provide you with 20 vacation days per
calendar year. Should the Company’s policy change so that it would entitle you
to more than 20 vacation days per year, you will be covered by such policy,
which would be based on your Date of Hire as recorded in the Company’s HR
records.

9. Termination; Severance.

(a) Resignation without Good Reason; Termination For Cause; Termination Due to
Death or Disability. If, at any time, you resign your employment without Good
Reason (as defined herein), or if the Company terminates your employment for
Cause (as defined herein), or if either party terminates your employment as a
result of your death or disability, you will receive your base salary accrued
through your last day of employment, as well as any earned, unused vacation (if
applicable) accrued through your last day of employment. In either of these
events, you will not be entitled to any other form of compensation from the
Company, including any severance benefits.

(b) Termination without Cause; Resignation for Good Reason. If, at any time,
either (x) the Company terminates your employment without Cause, and other than
if your employment terminates as a result of your death or disability, or
(y) you resign for Good Reason, and provided such termination constitutes a
“separation from service” (as defined under Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(h), without regard to any alternative definition thereunder, a
“Separation from Service”), then subject to your obligations below, you shall be
entitled to receive (collectively, the “Severance Benefits”):

(i) Twelve (12) months of your then current Base Salary and the On-Target
Commissions (at the on target payment levels) and your then current car
allowance, ignoring any decrease in On-Target Compensation that forms the basis
for Good Reason, less all applicable withholdings and deductions (the “Cash
Continuation”), paid in equal installments on the Company’s normal payroll
schedule for the first twelve (12) months following your Separation from Service
(provided that no payments will be made prior to the 60th day following your
Separation from Service, and on such 60th day, the Company will pay you in a
lump sum the Cash Continuation that you would have received on or prior to such
date under the original schedule but for the delay while waiting for the 60th
day in compliance with Code Section 409A).

(ii) A lump sum payment equal to the performance incentive award amount, for the
fiscal year in which the termination occurs, that you would have earned, based
solely on the actual percentage achievement of the Company’s EBITDA performance
objectives as measured at the date of Separation from Service. For clarity, if
the Company had achieved 50% of its annual EBITDA performance objectives as of
the Separation from Service Date, you would receive payment of $50,000. This
lump sum payment will be paid on the 60th day following your Separation from
Service.

(iii) If you timely elect continued coverage under COBRA for yourself and your
covered dependents under the Company’s group health plans following such
termination or resignation of employment, then the Company shall pay, as and
when due directly to the COBRA carrier, the COBRA premiums necessary to continue
your health insurance coverage in effect for yourself and your eligible
dependents on the termination date until the

earliest of (A) the close of the 12 month period following the termination of
your employment, (B) the expiration of your eligibility for the continuation
coverage under COBRA, or (C) the date when you become eligible for substantially
equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or
self-employment (such period from the termination date through the earliest of
(A) through (C), the “COBRA Payment Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the payment of
the COBRA premiums would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of
Section 105(h)(2) of the Code or any statute or regulation of similar effect
(including but not limited to the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act, as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act), then
in lieu of providing the COBRA premiums, the Company shall instead pay you on
the first day of each month of the remainder of the COBRA Payment Period a fully
taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premiums for that month, subject to
applicable tax withholdings (such amount, the “Special Severance Payment”), for
the remainder of the COBRA Payment Period. On the sixtieth (60th) day following
your Separation from Service, the Company will make the first payment under this
clause (and, in the case of the Special Severance Payment, such payment will be
made you, in a lump sum) equal to the aggregate amount of payments that the
Company would have paid through such date had such payments commenced on the
Separation from Service through such sixtieth (60th) day, with the balance of
the payments paid thereafter on the schedule described above. If you become
eligible for coverage under another employer’s group health plan or otherwise
cease to be eligible for COBRA during the period provided in this clause, you
must immediately notify the Company of such event, and all payments and
obligations under this clause shall cease.

The Severance Benefits are conditional upon (a) your continuing to comply with
your obligations under your Non-Disclosure, Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation
Agreement and your Invention and Secrecy Agreement that you have executed during
the period of time in which you are receiving the Severance Benefits; (b) your
delivering to the Company an effective, general release of claims in favor of
the Company in a form acceptable to the Company within 60 days following your
Separation from Service; and (c) your delivering to the Company a letter
resigning from any office which you hold within the Company and its affiliates
at that time and any Board position which you hold at that time in the Company
and its affiliates effective no later than the date of your termination date (or
such other date as requested by the Board).

(c) Termination without Cause; Resignation for Good Reason – Change of Control.
If on or within twelve (12) months following the closing of a future Change of
Control, either (x) the Company or a successor corporation terminates your
employment without Cause and other than as a result of your death or disability,
or (y) you resign for Good Reason, and provided such termination constitutes a
Separation from Service, then, in addition to receiving the Severance Benefits,
you will also receive (subject to your satisfaction of the conditions to
receiving the Severance Benefits) the acceleration of the vesting of all of your
then-outstanding compensatory stock grants as of the date of termination.

10. Definitions.

(a) Change of Control. “Change of Control” shall mean the consummation of any
one of the following events, but only if such event also constitutes a “change
in the ownership or effective control of the corporation or in the ownership of
a substantial portion of the assets of the corporation” as defined under
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3: (a) a sale, lease or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (b) a consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity or
person, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the shareholders of the
Company immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or reorganization, own
less than 50% of the Company’s outstanding voting power of the surviving entity
(or its parent) following the consolidation, merger or reorganization or (c) any
transaction (or series of related transactions involving a person or entity, or
a group of affiliated persons or entities) in which in excess of fifty percent
(50%) of the Company’s outstanding voting power is transferred (excluding
(i) any consolidation or merger effected exclusively to change the domicile of
the Company, or (ii) any transaction or series of transactions principally for
bona fide equity financing purposes in which cash is received by the Company or
any successor or indebtedness of the Company is cancelled or converted or a
combination thereof).

(b) Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean one or more of the
following: (i) your conviction of a felony; (ii) your commission of any act of
fraud with respect to the Company; (iii) any intentional misconduct by you that
has a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business that is not cured by
you within thirty (30) days after written notice is given to you by the Company
identifying such misconduct; (iv) your breach of any fiduciary or contractual
obligation that you owe to the Company that has a material adverse effect upon
the Company’s business and is not cured by you within thirty (30) days after
written notice is given to you by the Company identifying such breach;
(v) willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of your duties
hereunder, including (without limitation) your refusal to comply in any material
respect with the legal directives of the Board or the CEO, so long as such
directives are not inconsistent with your position and duties, that are not
cured by you within thirty (30) days after written notice is given to you by the
Company identifying such misconduct or negligence.

(c) Good Reason. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean
your resignation in writing from all positions you then hold with the Company as
a result of any one of the following events which occurs without your consent
and provided you notify the Company in writing, within thirty (30) days after
the occurrence of one of the following actions, that you intend to terminate
your employment no earlier than thirty (30) days after providing such notice,
and the Company fails to cure such actions within thirty (30) days after receipt
of such notice, and such resignation is effective not later than sixty (60) days
(or shorter timeframe if mutually agreed to in writing by you and the Company)
after the expiration of the applicable thirty (30) day cure period: (i) a
material reduction of your then current annual On-

Target Compensation, which the parties agree is a reduction by 10% or more;
(ii) any material diminution of your duties, responsibilities, or authority to a
level below that of an officer of the Company, excluding for this purpose (1) an
isolated or inadvertent action not taken in bad faith that is remedied by the
Company immediately after notice thereof is given by you, and (2) any change in
your title, duties, responsibilities or authority if you are given or you retain
other officer level duties within the Company; or (iii) any requirement that you
relocate to a work site that results in a material adverse change in the
geographic location at which you provide services, which the parties agrees is
an increase in your one-way commute by more than twenty five (25) miles.

(d) Code. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Code” means the Internal Revenue
Code of 1988, as amended.

11. 280G Best After Tax. If any payment or benefit you would receive from the
Company or otherwise in connection with a change of control or other similar
transaction (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the
meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject
to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then
such Payment shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be
either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of
the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, or (y) the largest portion, up to
and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount ((x) or (y)), after
taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes,
income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable
marginal rate), results in your receipt of the greatest economic benefit
notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the
Excise Tax. If a Reduced Amount will give rise to the greater after tax benefit,
the reduction in the Payments shall occur in the following order: (a) reduction
of cash payments; (b) cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards other
than stock options; (c) cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock options;
and (d) reduction of other benefits paid to you. Within any such category of
payments and benefits (that is, (a), (b), (c) or (d)), a reduction shall occur
first with respect to amounts that are not “deferred compensation” within the
meaning of Section 409A and then with respect to amounts that are. In the event
that acceleration of compensation from your equity awards is to be reduced, such
acceleration of vesting shall be canceled, subject to the immediately preceding
sentence, in the reverse order of the date of grant.

12. Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is
intended that the Severance Benefits and other payments payable under this
Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the
application of Code Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations
1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5), and 1.409A-(b)(9) and this Agreement will be
construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions.
For purposes of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance
thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively “Section 409A”)
(including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)), all payments made under this Agreement, including
without limitation your right to receive any installment payments under this
Agreement

(whether severance payments, reimbursements or otherwise) shall be treated as a
right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each
installment payment hereunder shall at all times be considered a separate and
distinct payment.

It is intended that any severance payment and any other benefits provided
hereunder that are not exempt from application of Section 409A shall be
interpreted and administered so as to comply with the requirements of Code
Section 409A to the greatest extent possible, including the requirement that,
notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are
deemed by the Company at the time of your Separation from Service to be a
“specified employee” for purposes of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), and to the
extent payments due to you upon a Separation from Service are deemed to be
“deferred compensation”, then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion
of such payments (or delayed issuance of any shares subject to stock awards that
are not themselves exempt from Code Section 409A) is required in order to avoid
a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the related
adverse taxation under Section 409A, such payments shall not be provided to you
(or such shares issued) prior to the earliest of (i) the expiration of the
six-month period measured from the date of your Separation from Service with the
Company, (ii) the date of your death or (iii) such earlier date as permitted
under Section 409A without the imposition of adverse taxation. Upon the first
business day following the expiration of such applicable Code
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this
paragraph shall be paid in a lump sum to you, and any remaining payments due
shall be paid as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable agreement. No
interest shall be due on any amounts so deferred.

13. Confidentiality Obligations. As a condition of your continued employment,
you must continue to abide by the terms of the Non-Disclosure, Confidentiality
and Non-Solicitation Agreement and the Invention and Secrecy Agreement you have
executed, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B.

14. At-Will Employment. Your employment with Company will be “at-will.” This
means that either you or Company may terminate your employment at any time, with
or without Cause, and with or without advance notice.

15. Arbitration. The Agreement Regarding Mandatory Arbitration of all
Termination Related Disputes entered into between you and Company is terminated
as of the Effective Date and replaced by the provisions of this Section 15. To
ensure the rapid and economical resolution of disputes that may arise in
connection with your employment with the Company, you and the Company agree that
any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action, in law or equity, arising
from or relating to the enforcement, breach, performance, or interpretation of
this Agreement, your employment with the Company, or the termination of your
employment, shall be resolved, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final,
binding and confidential arbitration in New York City, New York by JAMS, Inc.
(“JAMS”) or its successor, under JAMS’ then applicable rules and procedures. You
acknowledge that by agreeing to this arbitration procedure, both you and the
Company waive the right to resolve any such

dispute through a trial by jury or judge or administrative proceeding. You will
have the right to be represented by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding.
The arbitrator shall: (a) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for
the resolution of the dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be
permitted by law; and (b) issue a written statement signed by the arbitrator
regarding the disposition of each claim and the relief, if any, awarded as to
each claim, the reasons for the award, and the arbitrator’s essential findings
and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator shall be authorized
to award all relief that you or the Company would be entitled to seek in a court
of law. The Company shall pay all JAMS arbitration fees in excess of the
administrative fees that you would be required to pay if the dispute were
decided in a court of law. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent
either you or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent
irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration.

16. Miscellaneous. This Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of all
of the terms and conditions of your employment with the Company, and supersedes
and replaces any and all prior agreements or representations with regard to the
subject matter hereof, whether written or oral, including but not limited to the
Prior Agreement. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or
representation other than those expressly contained herein, and it cannot be
modified, amended or extended except in a writing signed by you and a duly
authorized member of the Board. This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by you and the Company, and our respective
successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators, except that you may
not assign any of your duties or rights hereunder without the express written
consent of the Company. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect
any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be
reformed, construed and enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions had never been contained herein. This Agreement and the terms of your
employment with the Company shall be governed in all aspects by the laws of the
State of New Jersey.

EMPLOYEE NON-DISCLOSURE, CONFIDENTIALITY, & NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT

(“Agreement”)

In consideration of my employment with Dialogic Inc. or with any other
corporation, partnership, association, trust or joint venture, affiliated, in
participation with or controlled by Dialogic Corporation, in Canada, the U.S. or
in any other country (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Company” with any
specific reference which should not be read in the collective meaning the
specific employer company):

Non-Disclosure & Confidentiality

For purposes of this Agreement and in connection with my employment with the
Company, Confidential Information shall mean information including, but not
limited to, any records, data or information concerning inventions, engineering
drawings, designs, processes, methods, trade secrets, or manufacturing
techniques, software programs, product specifications, product roadmaps and
plans, system configuration, government classified business, customer lists and
other customer-related information, cost and price information, legal
information, finance information, human resources information, supplier lists
and other supplier-related information, or any other information not
disseminated to the public relating to the Company’s business, affairs or plans
of the business, affairs or plans of the Company’s customers or suppliers (all
of which is collectively referred to herein as “Confidential Information”).

I acknowledge that I have or will have access, while employed by the Company, to
Confidential Information relating to the business, affairs, clients and
suppliers of the Company and its clients. I hereby agree that both during and
subsequent to my employment with the Company, I will not disclose to any other
person whatsoever any Confidential Information which I learned in the course of
my employment, whether such Confidential Information belongs to the Company or
any third party, except as required by my employment with the Company or by
applicable law. I also agree that both during and subsequent to my employment
with the Company, I will not use any Confidential Information in any way
contrary to the best interests of the Company, I will treat and protect all
Confidential Information with a high standard of care, and I will not directly
or indirectly divulge, use, or exploit any Confidential Information (except in
the normal course of my employment with the Company) to or for the benefit of
myself or any other person whatsoever, except with the express prior written
consent of an authorized representative of the Company.

I understand and agree that at the time of leaving the employ of the Company,
except for material published and disseminated for distribution to the public, I

DIALOGIC CORPORATION

INVENTION AND SECRECY AGREEMENT (“Agreement”)

In consideration of my employment with Dialogic Inc. or with any other
corporation, partnership, association, trust or joint venture, affiliated, in
participation with or controlled by Dialogic Corporation (hereinafter
collectively referred to as “Dialogic” with any specific reference which should
not be read in the collective meaning the specific employer company), I agree as
follows (in addition to any other obligations required of me pursuant to the
nature of my employment):

1. During the period of my employment, to promptly and fully communicate in
writing to Dialogic (to such department or officer of Dialogic as it may direct
from time to time) any and all creations, ideas, designs, processes, inventions,
improvements, discoveries, developments and the like, made, acquired, obtained,
created or conceived by me, either solely or jointly with others during such
period, related to the scope of my employment or using Dialogic’ resources or
equipment at any time, or which relate to the business of Dialogic or its
affiliated or associated companies, whether or not such creations, ideas,
designs, processes, inventions, improvements, discoveries, developments and the
like are patentable or copyrightable or used by Dialogic (the “Inventions”). I
do hereby acknowledge that Dialogic shall be the sole owner of any and all
rights, title and interests in and to the said Inventions and hereby assign any
and all of my rights, title and interests in and to the said Inventions,
including without limitation any and all intellectual property rights therein,
and the right to sue for past, present and future infringement, in any and all
countries, to Dialogic or to such persons or parties as Dialogic may designate.
I hereby waive any and all moral rights in and to all works, past and future,
created in the course of my employment.

2. During the period of my employment and at any time thereafter, I undertake to
execute any and all documents, assignments, instruments and other papers, to
make any proper oath, and to accomplish any and all acts which Dialogic may deem
necessary for securing and protecting the rights, title and interests of
Dialogic in such Inventions; and I further agree that I will (but at no
out-of-pocket cost to me) assist Dialogic in any and all administrative and
legal proceedings before intellectual property offices, courts and other bodies
involving the said Inventions or any and all intellectual property right which
may evolve therefrom, including without limitation, patents, patent
applications, trade secrets, copyrights, and copyright applications.

3. I certify that as of this date, I have no inventions, improvements,
discoveries or developments falling within the scope of this Agreement which
were made prior to the date of my employment and which I own either totally or
in part (the “Prior Inventions”) except as follows:

  

 

 

 

which Prior Inventions shall not be assigned under this Invention and Secrecy
Agreement. However, if I incorporate a Prior Invention into an Invention, I
hereby grant to Dialogic a nonexclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide
license to make, have made, modify, use, offer to sell, sell, import and to
otherwise fully exploit such Prior Invention as a part of or in connection with
such Invention, with the right to grant
