secrets, confidential information, and copyrights, and that Employee is not
entitled to use, disclose, or otherwise benefit from the Company’s proprietary
interests.  Employee understands that any breach of this
Section 10 will also constitute a misappropriation of the Company’s
proprietary rights, and may constitute a theft of the Company’s trade secrets
under applicable local, state, and federal statutes, and will result in a claim
for injunctive relief, damages, and/or criminal sanctions and penalties against
Employee by the Company, and possibly others.

therein.

    


    12.           Severability.  If
any provision of this Agreement is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such
holding shall not affect any other provisions hereof.  In the event
any provision is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision shall
be limited so as to affect the intent of the Parties to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law.  Any claim by Employee against the
Company shall not constitute a defense to enforcement by the
Company.

    


    13.          
Assignment.  The
Company may assign its rights under this Agreement with the reasonable consent
of the Employee.  Employee cannot assign his rights under this
Agreement without the written consent of the Company.

    


    14.          
Enforcement.  The
releases contained herein do not release any claims for enforcement of the
terms, conditions, or warranties contained in this Agreement.  The
Parties shall be free to pursue any remedies available to them to enforce this
Agreement. In the event that Employee must engage legal counsel and/or take
legal action to enforce the terms of this Agreement and the Employee prevails in
his allegations that the Company has not performed its obligations pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to recover from the
Company all associated costs and expenses, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees.
