 - 7 -












 






     (2) Executive (i) while employed by the Company or any of its affiliates shall not,
either directly or indirectly, call on, solicit or attempt to induce any other officer,
employee or independent contractor of the Company or any of its affiliates to terminate his
or her employment with such business and shall not assist any other person or entity in
such a solicitation (regardless of whether any such officer, employee or independent
contractor would commit a breach of contract by terminating his or her employment), and
(ii) during the Restricted Period, shall not, either directly or indirectly, call on,
solicit or attempt to induce any other officer, employee or independent contractor of such
business with whom Executive had contact, knowledge of, or association in the course of
Executive’s employment with the Company or any of its predecessors or affiliates, as the
case may be, during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the beginning of the
Restricted Period, to terminate his or her employment with the Company or any of its
affiliates and shall not assist any other person or entity in such a solicitation
(regardless of whether any such officer, employee or independent contractor would commit a
breach of contract by terminating his or her employment). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing shall prohibit any person from contacting Executive about employment or other
engagement during the Restricted Period, provided that Executive does not solicit the
contact.



     (e) Non-competition Obligation. Without the prior written consent of the Company,
Executive, while employed by the Company or any of its affiliates and thereafter until the end of
the Restricted Period, will not engage in any of the activities described in Section
3(b)(1) hereof within the geographical area in which the Company or any of its affiliates is
actively engaged in developing, marketing and selling ophthalmic pharmaceuticals, for himself or
on behalf of any other person, partnership, corporation or other business entity which is in a
Competing Business for purposes of competing with the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, Executive will not be prohibited from owning less than five (5%) percent of any publicly
traded corporation, whether or not such corporation is in a Competing Business.



     (f) Reasonable and Continuing Obligations. Executive agrees that Executive’s
obligations under this Section 6 are obligations which will continue beyond the date
Executive’s employment terminates and that such obligations are reasonable, fair and equitable in
scope, terms and duration, are necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests
and are a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Employment Agreement.



     (g) Remedy for Breach. Executive agrees that the remedies at law of the Company for
any actual or threatened breach by Executive of the covenants in this Section 6 would be
inadequate and that the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the covenants in this
Section 6, including entry of a temporary restraining order in state or federal court,
preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against activities in violation of this Section
6, or both, or other appropriate judicial remedy, writ or order, in addition to any damages and
legal expenses which the Company may be legally entitled to recover. The Company agrees, however,
to give Executive and, if known, Executive’s attorney reasonable advance notice of any legal
proceeding, including any application for a temporary restraining order, relating to an attempt to
enforce the covenants in this Section 6 against Executive. Executive acknowledges and
agrees that the covenants in this Section 6 shall be construed as agreements independent of
any other provision of this Employment Agreement or any other agreement between the



- 8 -









 




Company and Executive, and that the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against
the Company, whether predicated upon this Employment Agreement or any other agreement, shall not
constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of such covenants.




     (h) Termination of Restrictive Covenants. In addition to any other right or remedy
available to Executive, Executive shall no longer be bound by any of the restrictions set forth in
this Section 6 if the Company fails to pay or to provide Executive when due the amounts and
benefits due hereunder or under any agreement ancillary hereto, and Executive’s pursuit of such
remedy shall not relieve the Company from its obligations to pay and to provide such amounts and
benefits to Executive.



     (i) Ownership of Inventions, Discoveries, Improvements, Etc.




     (1) Executive shall promptly disclose and describe to the Company all
inventions, improvements, discoveries and technical developments, whether or not
patentable, made or conceived by Executive, either alone or with others, during such
time
as Executive is employed with the Company, and within one (1) year after the date upon
such employment terminates, and that (i) are based in whole or in part upon
Confidential
Information, or (ii) during such time as Executive is employed with the Company are
along the lines of, useful in or related to the business of the Company, or (iii)
result from,
or are suggested by, any work that may be done by Executive for or on behalf of the
Company (“Inventions”). Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company
Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to such Inventions, and agrees to
cooperate with the Company both during and after such time as Executive is employed
with the Company in the procurement and maintenance, at the Company’s expense and at
its direction, of patents, copyright registrations and/or protection of the Company’s
rights
in such Inventions. Executive shall keep and maintain adequate and current written
records of all such Inventions, which shall be and remain the property of the Company.




     (2) If a patent application, trademark registration or copyright registration is
filed by Executive or on Executive’s behalf, or a copyright notice indicating
Executive’s
authorship is used by Executive or on Executive’s behalf, within one (1) year after the
date on which Executive’s employment with the Company terminates, that describes or
identifies any Invention within the scope of Executive’s work for the Company or that
otherwise related to a portion of the Company’s business (or any division thereof) of
which Executive had knowledge such time as Executive was employed with the
Company, it is to be conclusively presumed that the Invention was conceived by
Executive during the such time as Executive was employed with the Company.
Executive agrees to notify the Company promptly of any such application or registration
and to assign to the Company Executive’s entire right, title and interest in such
Invention
and in such application or registration.
