                        Company or any other company in the Group or which on

                        Group in relation to the Business.

         (D)      Since the Director may obtain in the course of the Appointment
                  by reason of services rendered for or offices held in any
                  other company in the Group knowledge of the trade secrets or
                  other confidential information of such company, the Director
                  hereby agrees that he will at the request and cost of the
                  Company or such other company enter into a direct agreement or
                  undertaking with such company whereby he will accept
                  restrictions corresponding to the restrictions herein
                  contained (or such of them as may be appropriate in the
                  circumstances) in relation to such products and services and
                  such area and for such period as such company may reasonably
                  require for the protection of its legitimate interests.

         (E)      All notes, memoranda, records and writings made by the
                  Director in relation to the Business or concerning any of its
                  dealings or affairs or the dealings or affairs of any clients
                  or customers of the Group shall be and remain the property of
                  the Group and shall be handed over by him to the Company (or
                  to such other company in the Group as the case may require)
                  from time to time on demand and in any event upon his leaving
                  the service of the Company and the Director shall not retain
                  any copy thereof.

         (F)      While the restrictions contained in this Clause are considered
                  by the parties to be reasonable in all the circumstances it is
                  recognized that restrictions of the nature in question may
                  fail for technical reasons unforeseen and accordingly it is
                  hereby agreed and declared that if any such restrictions shall
                  be adjudged to be void as going beyond what is reasonable in
                  all the circumstances for the protection of the interests of
                  the Company but would be valid if part of the wording thereof
                  were deleted or the periods (if any) thereof were reduced the
                  said restriction shall apply with such modifications as may be
                  necessary to make it valid and effective.

                  or in conjunction with any other person

                  (i)   originates any design (whether registrable or not) or

                  (subject to sub-clauses 9(B), 9(C) and 9(D)) regard himself in
                  relation thereto as a trustee for the Company.

                  copyright, future copyright, design right and future design

                  including the right to sue for damages for past infringements.

         (D)      Any such invention, process or development will be the
                  absolute property of the Company and the Director will, if and
                  when required by the Company (whether during the continuance
                  of his employment or afterwards) at its expense, apply or join
                  with the Company in applying, for letter patent or other
                  protection in any part of the world for any invention process
                  or development.

                  deeds or documents and do all such acts and things as may be

                  of the Company in respect of the matters referred to in
                  sub-clauses 9(A) to 9(D).

         (F)      The Director irrevocably appoints the Company as his attorney
                  in his name and on his behalf to execute all documents and do
                  all things required in order to give full effect to the
                  provisions of this clause.

10.      Holidays
