the period when it was a subsidiary of the Company).




      “Restricted Business” shall mean the Energy Saver Business.




      “Territory” shall mean North America.



     2. Covenants of Borucki. Borucki covenants and agrees that he will not, directly or
indirectly, either alone or jointly, with or on behalf of others, expressly or impliedly, whether
as principal, partner, agent, shareholder, director, employee, consultant or otherwise during the
period commencing on the date hereof and ending five (5) years hereafter:




      (a) engage in the Restricted Business in the Territory, or own, manage, operate, join,
control, assist, participate in, or be connected with, directly or indirectly (and including
as an officer, director, member, manager, partner, proprietor, consultant, independent
contractor, or lender), any Person who is, directly or indirectly, engaged in the Restricted

      (b) disclose to any Person, or use or otherwise exploit for his own benefit or for the

Company
does not disseminate the Confidential Information to the public. Borucki further acknowledges and
agrees that:





      (x) the prohibitions against disclosure of Confidential Information provided in this
Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights or remedies which the Company
may have available pursuant to the laws of any jurisdiction or at common law to prevent the
disclosure of trade secrets or proprietary information, and the enforcement by the Company
of its rights and remedies pursuant to this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of
any other rights or available remedies which it may possess in law or equity absent this
Agreement, and




      (y) Borucki’s breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement will result in
irreparable injury to the Company and that the Company’s remedy at law for such a breach
will be inadequate and will be extremely difficult to calculate or determine.


Accordingly, Borucki agrees and consents that, upon any such breach, the Company shall, in addition
to all other remedies available to it at law or in equity, be entitled to both preliminary and
permanent injunctions (without bond) to prevent or halt any such breach or threatened breach.




     3. GENERAL PROVISIONS.



     (a) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, waivers and other communications

deemed to have been duly given) in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement.



     (b) Expenses. Each party hereto shall pay its own expenses in connection with this
Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not such
transactions shall be consummated.



     (c) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.



     (d) Amendment; Waivers, Etc. No amendment, modification or discharge of this
Agreement, and no waiver hereunder, shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly
executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, modification, discharge or waiver
is sought. Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter
described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the party granting such waiver
in any other respect or at any other time. Neither the waiver by either of the parties hereto of a
breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor the failure by any of the
parties, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or to
exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall be construed as a waiver of any other breach or
default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any of such provisions, rights or privileges
hereunder.

the subject matter hereof.



     (f) Severability. If any provision, including any phrase, sentence, clause, section
or subsection, of this Agreement is invalid, inoperative or unenforceable for any reason, such
circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering such provision in question invalid,
inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision
herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent whatsoever; provided that the
material economic terms of the transaction are not materially modified by such circumstances.
