SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE
This Separation Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) is made by and between Scott N. Flanders (“Executive”) and eHealth, Inc. (the “Company”) (collectively referred to as the “Parties” or individually referred to as a “Party”).
WHEREAS, Executive is employed by the Company as its Chief Executive Officer and serves as a member of its Board of Directors;
WHEREAS, the Executive’s employment with the Company will terminate effective on October 31, 2021 (the “Termination Date”), and through such date Executive shall continue to serve as its Chief Executive Officer and a member of its Board of Directors, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to retain Executive as an independent contractor to perform services for a certain period (the “Consulting Term”) following the Termination Date, and Executive is willing to perform such services, on the terms described in the Consulting Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Consulting Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, the Parties wish to resolve any and all disputes, claims, complaints, grievances, charges, actions, petitions, and demands that the Executive may have against the Company and any of the Releasees as defined below, including, but not limited to, any and all claims arising out of or in any way related to Executive’s employment with or separation from the Company;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, the Company and Executive hereby agree as follows:
1.Consideration.  Through the Termination Date, Executive shall continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer and to receive such compensation and benefits as he is eligible to receive as of the date hereof.  Upon completion of such period of continuous service as Chief Executive Officer, and subject to Executive’s execution (and non-revocation) of the release attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”) on the Termination Date, the Company will pay Executive the following severance benefits, in full satisfaction of any benefits Executive is eligible to receive under Executive’s Employment Agreement dated June 1, 2016 (the “Employment Agreement”), subject to the terms and conditions herein and subject to Executive complying with all of Executive’s legal and contractual obligations to the Company and, with respect to clause 1(c), reasonably cooperating with the Board and management of the Company as part of the Chief Executive Officer transition process:  
a.Cash Severance.  A lump sum cash amount equal to $2,128,767.12, which payment shall be made on the first payroll date following the effective date of the Release ; and
b.Continued Health Benefits.  Subject to Executive electing continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (if any) within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA, the Company will pay the COBRA premiums on a monthly basis for such coverage of Executive and any of Executive’s eligible dependents covered under the Company’s group health insurance (that is, medical, dental and vision) plans as of immediately prior to the termination of Executive employment with the Company, until the earlier of (x) eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date or (y) the date upon which Executive and 








such eligible dependents of Executive become covered under another employer’s group health plans that provide Executive and such eligible dependents with comparable benefits and levels of coverage
c.Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award.  A Performance Based Restricted Stock Unit Award granted on March 17, 2021 with respect to 18,984 shares has met the performance hurdle with respect to 6,328 shares (such 6,328 shares, the “Achieved PRSUs”), which Achieved PRSUs are now subject to time-based vesting.  On December 31, 2021, if the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Consulting Agreement are met, such Achieved PRSUs shall become fully vested.
d.Deferral Elections.  The Company previously granted Executive certain equity awards (“Equity Awards”) covering shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreements governing such Equity Awards (collectively the “Award Documents”).  To the extent any Equity Awards are subject to a deferral election by Executive (the “Deferral Election”), the settlement and delivery of the vested Shares subject to the Equity Awards will occur in accordance with such applicable Deferral Election and applicable Award Documents.  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive engages in conduct that constitutes Cause for Executive’s termination (as defined in Executive’s Employment Agreement) between the date of this Agreement and the Termination Date, then the Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause, and Executive will not be eligible for, and will not receive, the severance benefits set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 1.
2.Equity Awards.  The Parties agree that for purposes of determining the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that Executive is entitled to purchase from the Company pursuant to any Equity Awards that are stock options, Executive will be considered to have vested only up to the Termination Date, and all unvested restricted stock unit awards (other than the Achieved PRSUs) will be forfeited as of such date. All of Executive’s stock options are vested. Executive acknowledges that as of the Termination Date, Executive holds only those outstanding Equity Awards as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto, and Executive will have vested in the portion of such Equity Awards as specified in Exhibit C attached hereto.  The Equity Awards, including the exercise of Executive’s vested options and the underlying Shares, shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s Award Documents and any applicable Deferral Election with respect to the Equity Award.  The post-termination exercise period of any of Executive’s stock options will not begin to run until the final day of the Consulting Term; provided, however, that in no event will any option award be exercisable after the expiration of the award’s term.
3.Benefits.  Executive’s health insurance benefits shall cease on October 31, 2021, subject to Executive’s right to continue his/her health insurance under COBRA.  Executive’s participation in all benefits and incidents of employment, including, but not limited to, participation in the Company’s 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and the accrual of bonuses, vacation, and paid time off, shall cease as of the Termination Date.
4.Other Agreements.  Concurrently with this Agreement and for the consideration set forth in this Agreement, the Company and Executive shall enter into the Consulting Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B.  In addition, as of the Termination Date, Executive shall resign from 
Page 2






all positions with the Company and its subsidiaries, including as a member of the boards of directors of the Company and of its subsidiaries, other than with respect to his duties under the Consulting Agreement.
5.Payment of Salary and Receipt of All Benefits.  Executive acknowledges and represents that, other than the consideration set forth in this Agreement, the Company has paid or provided all salary, wages, bonuses, accrued vacation/paid time off, premiums, leaves, housing allowances, relocation costs, interest, severance, outplacement costs, fees, reimbursable expenses, commissions, stock, stock options, vesting, and any and all other benefits and compensation due to Executive as of the date hereof.
6.No Pending or Future Lawsuits.  Executive represents that he/she has no lawsuits, claims, or actions pending in his/her name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any of the other Releasees (as defined in Exhibit A).  Executive also represents that he/she does not intend to bring any claims on his/her own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any of the other Releasees.
7.Application for Employment.  Executive understands and agrees that, as a condition of this Agreement, Executive shall not be entitled to any employment with the Company, and Executive hereby waives any right, or alleged right, of employment or re-employment with the Company.  
8.Trade Secrets and Confidential Information/Company Property.  Executive reaffirms and agrees to observe and abide by the terms of the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement with the Company entered into on February 7, 2017 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), specifically including the provisions therein regarding nondisclosure of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information, and nonsolicitation of Company employees.   
9.No Cooperation.  Executive agrees that he/she will not knowingly encourage, counsel, or assist any attorneys or their clients in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the Releasees, unless under a subpoena or other court order to do so.  Executive agrees both to immediately notify the Company upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order, and to furnish, within three (3) business days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or other court order.  If approached by anyone for counsel or assistance in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints against any of the Releasees, Executive shall state no more than that he/she cannot provide counsel or assistance.
10.Protected Activity Not Prohibited.   Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement shall in any way limit or prohibit Executive from engaging for a lawful purpose in any Protected Activity.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Protected Activity” shall mean filing a charge or complaint, or otherwise communicating, cooperating, or participating with, any state, federal, or other governmental agency, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the National Labor Relations Board.  Notwithstanding any restrictions set forth in this Agreement, Executive understands that he/she is not required to obtain authorization from the Company prior to disclosing information to, or communicating with, such agencies, nor is Executive obligated to advise the Company as to any such disclosures or communications.  Notwithstanding, in making any such disclosures or communications, Executive agrees to take all reasonable 
Page 3






precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of any information that may constitute Company confidential information under the Confidentiality Agreement to any parties other than the relevant government agencies.  Executive further understands that “Protected Activity” does not include the disclosure of any Company attorney-client privileged communications, and that any such disclosure without the Company’s written consent shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.
11.Nondisparagement.  Executive agrees to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel, or slander of any of the Releasees, and agrees to refrain from (a) making any public statements regarding the Company other than acknowledging that Executive previously was employed by the Company, served as its Chief Executive Officer, and was a member of its Board of Directors, and (b) any tortious interference with the contracts and relationships of any of the Releasees.  Executive shall direct any inquiries by potential future employers to the Company’s human resources department, which shall use its best efforts to provide only the Executive’s last position and dates of employment.  The members of the Company’s Board of Directors agree to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel, or slander of Executive.  
12.Breach.  In addition to the rights provided in the “Attorneys’ Fees” section below, Executive acknowledges and agrees that any material breach of this Agreement, unless such breach constitutes a legal action by Executive challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the waiver in Exhibit A under the ADEA, or of any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement shall entitle the Company immediately to recover and/or cease providing the consideration provided to Executive under this Agreement and to obtain damages, except as provided by law.
13.No Admission of Liability.  Executive understands and acknowledges that this Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of any and all actual or potential disputed claims by Executive.  No action taken by the Company hereto, either previously or in connection with this Agreement, shall be deemed or construed to be (a) an admission of the truth or falsity of any actual or potential claims or (b) an acknowledgment or admission by the Company of any fault or liability whatsoever to Executive or to any third party.
14.Costs.  The Parties shall each bear their own costs, attorneys’ fees, and other fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Company will reimburse Executive for his reasonable legal fees incurred in the review and negotiation of this Agreement and matters associated with his separation from the Company up to a limit of $15,000.
15.ARBITRATION.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEIR INTERPRETATION, AND ANY OF THE MATTERS HEREIN RELEASED, SHALL BE SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY, BEFORE JUDICIAL ARBITRATION & MEDIATION SERVICES, INC. (“JAMS”), PURSUANT TO ITS EMPLOYMENT ARBITRATION RULES & PROCEDURES (“JAMS RULES”).  THE ARBITRATOR MAY GRANT INJUNCTIONS AND OTHER RELIEF IN SUCH DISPUTES.  THE ARBITRATOR SHALL ADMINISTER AND CONDUCT ANY ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA LAW, INCLUDING THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, AND THE ARBITRATOR SHALL APPLY SUBSTANTIVE AND PROCEDURAL CALIFORNIA LAW TO ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAW PROVISIONS 
Page 4






OF ANY JURISDICTION.  TO THE EXTENT THAT THE JAMS RULES CONFLICT WITH CALIFORNIA LAW, CALIFORNIA LAW SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE.  THE DECISION OF THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE FINAL, CONCLUSIVE, AND BINDING ON THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE PREVAILING PARTY IN ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO ENFORCE THE ARBITRATION AWARD.  THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION SHALL EACH PAY AN EQUAL SHARE OF THE COSTS AND EXPENSES OF SUCH ARBITRATION, AND EACH PARTY SHALL SEPARATELY PAY FOR ITS RESPECTIVE COUNSEL FEES AND EXPENSES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL AWARD ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS TO THE PREVAILING PARTY, EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW.  THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THEM RESOLVED IN A COURT OF LAW BY A JUDGE OR JURY.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THIS SECTION WILL NOT PREVENT EITHER PARTY FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE RELIEF (OR ANY OTHER PROVISIONAL REMEDY) FROM ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE PARTIES AND THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THEIR DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE AGREEMENTS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE.  SHOULD ANY PART OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN THIS PARAGRAPH CONFLICT WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN.
16.Taxes.  All payments made pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to any applicable tax withholdings.

Executive agrees and understands that he/she is responsible for payment, if any, of local, state, and/or federal taxes on the payments and any other consideration provided hereunder by the Company and any penalties or assessments thereon.  Executive further agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any claims, demands, deficiencies, penalties, interest, assessments, executions, judgments, or recoveries by any government agency against the Company for any amounts claimed due on account of (a) Executive’s failure to pay or delayed payment of, federal or state taxes, or (b) damages sustained by the Company by reason of any such claims, including attorneys’ fees and costs.
17.Section 409A.  The payments and benefits under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the final Treasury regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder, and any applicable state law equivalent (together, “Section 409A”), and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or otherwise to so comply.  In no event will any payments pursuant to Section 1.a. be made later than March 15, 2022.  Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.  In no event will the Company reimburse Executive for any tax imposed or other costs incurred as a result of Section 409A.  
18.Authority.  The Company represents and warrants that the undersigned has the authority to act on behalf of the Company and to bind the Company and all who may claim through it to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

20.Severability.  In the event that any provision or any portion of any provision hereof or any surviving agreement made a part hereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision or portion of provision.
21.Attorneys’ Fees.  Except with regard to a legal action challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the waiver in Exhibit A under the ADEA, in the event that either Party brings an action to enforce or effect its rights under this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including the costs of mediation, arbitration, litigation, court fees, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with such an action.
22.Entire Agreement.  This Agreement represents the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and Executive concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Executive’s employment with and separation from the Company and the events leading thereto and associated therewith, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements and understandings concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Executive’s relationship with the Company, with the exception of the Confidentiality Agreement and the Award Documents. 
23.No Oral Modification.  This Agreement may only be amended in a writing signed by Executive and a duly authorized representative of the Company.

EXHIBIT A


Release of Claims to be executed on Termination Date
(Defined terms as set forth in the Separation Agreement)


1.Release of Claims.  Executive agrees that the consideration provided under Executive’s Separation Agreement represents settlement in full of all outstanding obligations owed to Executive by the Company and its current and former officers, directors, employees, agents, investors, attorneys, shareholders, administrators, affiliates, benefit plans, plan administrators, insurers, trustees, divisions, and subsidiaries, and predecessor and successor corporations and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”).  Executive, on his/her own behalf and on behalf of his/her respective heirs, family members, executors, agents, and assigns, hereby and forever releases the Releasees from, and agrees not to sue concerning, or in any manner to institute, prosecute, or pursue, any claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, or cause of action relating to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Executive may possess against any of the Releasees arising from any omissions, acts, facts, or damages that have occurred up until and including the execution date of this Release, including, without limitation:
a.    any and all claims relating to or arising from Executive’s employment relationship with the Company and the termination of that relationship; 
b.    any and all claims relating to, or arising from, Executive’s right to purchase or receive, or actual purchase or receipt of shares of stock of the Company, including, without limitation, any claims for fraud, misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty under applicable state corporate law, and securities fraud under any state or federal law;
c.    any and all claims for wrongful discharge of employment; termination in violation of public policy; discrimination; harassment; retaliation; breach of contract, both express and implied; breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing, both express and implied; promissory estoppel; negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress; fraud; negligent or intentional misrepresentation; negligent or intentional interference with contract or prospective economic advantage; unfair business practices; defamation; libel; slander; negligence; personal injury; assault; battery; invasion of privacy; false imprisonment; conversion; and disability benefits;
d.    any and all claims for violation of any federal, state, or municipal statute, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Equal Pay Act; the Fair Labor Standards Act; the Fair Credit Reporting Act; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967; the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act; the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; the California Family Rights Act; the California Labor Code; the California Workers’ Compensation Act; and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act;
e.    any and all claims for violation of the federal or any state constitution;
f.    any and all claims arising out of any other laws and regulations relating to employment or employment discrimination;
Exhibit A to Separation Agreement






g.    any claim for any loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of any dispute over the nonwithholding or other tax treatment of any of the proceeds received by Executive ; and
h.    any and all claims for attorneys’ fees and costs.
Executive agrees that the release set forth herein shall be and remain in effect in all respects as a complete general release as to the matters released.  This release does not extend to any obligations incurred under the Separation Agreement.  This release does not release any claims for indemnification by the Company pursuant to any agreement, statute or otherwise nor does it release any claims for coverage under any D&O or other similar insurance policy.  This release does not release claims that cannot be released as a matter of law, including, but not limited to, Executive’s right to file a charge with or participate in a charge by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any other local, state, or federal administrative body or government agency that is authorized to enforce or administer laws related to employment, against the Company (with the understanding that any such filing or participation does not give Executive the right to recover any monetary damages against the Company; Executive’s release of claims herein bars Executive from recovering such monetary relief from the Company).
2.Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA.  Executive understands and acknowledges that he is waiving and releasing any rights he may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary.  Executive understands and agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the effective date of this Release.  Executive understands and acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Executive was already entitled.  Executive further understands and acknowledges that he has been advised by this writing that: (a) he should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release; (b) he has had twentyone (21) days within which to consider this Release; (c) he has seven (7) days following his execution of this Release to revoke this Release; (d) this Release shall not be effective until after the revocation period has expired; and (e) nothing in this Release prevents or precludes Executive from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law.  Executive acknowledges and understands that revocation must be accomplished by a written notification to the General Counsel that is received prior to the effective date.  
3.California Civil Code Section 1542.  Executive acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.
Page 2






Executive, being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights he/she may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect.
4.    Executive’s signature below constitutes his/her certification under penalty of perjury that he/she has returned all documents and other items provided to Executive by the Company, developed or obtained by Executive in connection with his/her employment with the Company, or otherwise belonging to the Company, and has not kept any copies thereof.


Understood, Acknowledged & Agreed To:

Flanders (“Consultant”) (each herein referred to individually as a “Party,” or collectively as the “Parties”).  Any terms capitalized and not specifically defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them under the Separation Agreement and Release by and between the Company and Executive dated September 22, 2021 (the “Separation Agreement”).
WHEREAS, the Company desires to retain Consultant as an independent contractor to perform transition services for a certain period following the Termination Date, and Consultant is willing to perform such services, on the terms described below; and 
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Separation Agreement, the Parties have agreed to enter into this Consulting Agreement and to set forth the terms of the Parties’ continuing relationship under this Consulting Agreement, as Consultant transitions to an independent contractor of the Company.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
1.Services and Compensation
In consideration for the payments and benefits provided to Consultant as set forth in the Separation Agreement and as described in Exhibit 1 attached hereto, Consultant shall perform the services described in Exhibit 1 (the “Services”) for the Company (or its designee).
2.Confidentiality
A.Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any information (including any and all combinations of individual items of information) that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products, research or development of the Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to the Company’s, its affiliates’ or subsidiaries’ technical data, trade secrets, or know-how, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, or other information regarding the Company’s, its affiliates’ or subsidiaries’ products or services and markets therefor, customer lists and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company on whom Consultant called or with whom Consultant became acquainted during the term of this Consulting Agreement), software, developments, inventions, discoveries, ideas, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances, and other business information disclosed by the Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries, either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally or by drawings or inspection of premises, parts, equipment, or other property of Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any such information which Consultant can establish (i) was publicly known or made generally available prior to the time of disclosure to Consultant; (ii) becomes publicly known or made generally available after disclosure to Consultant through no wrongful action or inaction of 








Consultant; or (iii) is in the rightful possession of Consultant, without confidentiality obligations, at the time of disclosure as shown by Consultant’s then-contemporaneous written records; provided that any combination of individual items of information shall not be deemed to be within any of the foregoing exceptions merely because one or more of the individual items are within such exception, unless the combination as a whole is within such exception.
B.Nonuse and Nondisclosure. During and after the term of this Consulting Agreement, Consultant will hold in the strictest confidence, and take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information, and Consultant will not (i) use the Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever other than as necessary for the performance of the Services on behalf of the Company, or (ii) disclose the Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of an authorized representative of Company, except that Consultant may disclose Confidential Information to the extent compelled by applicable law; provided however, prior to such disclosure, Consultant shall provide prior written notice to Company and seek a protective order or such similar confidential protection as may be available under applicable law.  Consultant agrees that no ownership of Confidential Information is conveyed to the Consultant.  Without limiting the foregoing, Consultant shall not use or disclose any Company property, intellectual property rights, trade secrets or other proprietary know-how of the Company to invent, author, make, develop, design, or otherwise enable others to invent, author, make, develop, or design identical or substantially similar designs as those developed under this Consulting Agreement for any third party.  Consultant agrees that Consultant’s obligations under this Section 2.B shall continue after the termination of this Consulting Agreement. 
C.Other Client Confidential Information. Consultant agrees that Consultant will not improperly use, disclose, or induce the Company to use any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or concurrent employer of Consultant or other person or entity with which Consultant has an obligation to keep in confidence. Consultant also agrees that Consultant will not bring onto the Company’s premises or transfer onto the Company’s technology systems any unpublished document, proprietary information, or trade secrets belonging to any third party unless disclosure to, and use by, the Company has been consented to in writing by such third party. 
D.Third Party Confidential Information. Consultant recognizes that the Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties their confidential or proprietary information subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes.  Consultant agrees that at all times during the term of this Consulting Agreement and thereafter, Consultant owes the Company and such third parties a duty to hold all such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not to use it or to disclose it to any person, firm, corporation, or other third party except as necessary in carrying out the Services for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such third party.

Consultant also agrees to promptly make full written disclosure to the Company of any Inventions and to deliver and assign (or cause to be assigned) and hereby irrevocably assigns fully to the Company all right, title and interest in and to the Inventions.
B.Pre-Existing Materials. Subject to Section 3.A, Consultant will provide the Company with prior written notice if, in the course of performing the Services, Consultant incorporates into any Invention or utilizes in the performance of the Services any invention, discovery, idea, original works of authorship, development, improvements, trade secret, concept, or other proprietary information or intellectual property right owned by Consultant or in which Consultant has an interest, prior to, or separate from, performing the Services under this Consulting Agreement (“Prior Inventions”), and the Company is hereby granted a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, worldwide license (with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses) to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale, sell, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise exploit such Prior Inventions, without restriction, including, without limitation, as part of or in connection with such Invention, and to practice any method related thereto.
