or documentation to any person who is not actively employed by Employer or the customer to whom the information belongs.

in this Agreement or any other agreement between Employee and Employer or any obligation that otherwise arises from any aspect
of the employment relationship). The existence of any claim or cause of action of Employee against Employer, whether predicated
on this Agreement or any other basis, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of Paragraphs 8, 9 and 11 of this Agreement.


 






    5


     


    

 


Employee
agrees to the restrictive covenants in this Agreement in consideration of and as a necessary inducement for Employer to employ
or continue to employ Employee. Employee expressly stipulates and acknowledges that Employer conducts business throughout the
United States and that the restrictive covenants are reasonable as to time, geographic area, and line of business and are reasonably
necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Employer, including trade secrets, other valuable and confidential business
information, substantial relationships with customers, and the goodwill that customers associate with Employer’s name and
business. Employee acknowledges that despite the restrictive covenants herein, he/she will still be able to earn a living, that
enforcement of the restrictions as drafted will not impose an economic hardship upon Employee and that the restrictions are reasonable
in time and scope and not punitive.


 


Employee
agrees that the duration of the restrictive covenants of this Agreement shall be extended by any period of time during which Employee
is in breach of any provision(s) in this Agreement. Further, to the extent that any provision(s) of this Agreement are declared
overbroad, void or unenforceable by an authority of competent jurisdiction in a particular jurisdiction, the provision(s) shall
be modified by such authority for purposes of enforcement in that jurisdiction to the extent necessary to make the applicable
provision(s) valid and enforceable. Modification of a provision of this Agreement to validate its enforcement in any particular
jurisdiction, however, will not affect the enforcement of the provision as stated in any other jurisdiction in which it is enforceable.
Also, the invalidity of a provision of this Agreement in any particular jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforcement
of that provision in any other jurisdiction where it is otherwise valid.


 


13. 
Inventions, Developments and Work Product.


 


13.1. 
Intellectual Property Rights.


 


13.1.1. 
Pre-Existing Intellectual Property Rights.


 


13.1.1.1. 
Employee has attached as Exhibit “B” to this Agreement a list describing with particularity any Pre-Existing Intellectual
Property rights including, if applicable, titles and registration and application numbers. The Pre-Existing Intellectual Property
will be retained by Employee and will not be owned by or assigned to Employer under this Agreement. If no list is attached as
Exhibit “B,” Employee hereby represents and warrants that there are no Pre-Existing Intellectual Property Rights.


 


13.1.1.2. 
To the extent that Employee incorporates any Pre-Existing Intellectual Property Rights into any Work Product during the period
of his/her employment by Employer, Employee hereby irrevocably grants to Employer a royalty-free, fully paid-up, perpetual, transferable,
worldwide non-exclusive license (with the right to sublicense) to make, have made, copy, modify, make derivative works of, use,
offer to sell, sell, import and otherwise distribute such Pre-Existing Intellectual Property Rights as part of or in connection
with such Work Product and to practice any method related thereto.

13.1.2. 
Work Product. Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that:

All right, title and interest in and to all Work Product as well as any and all Intellectual Property Rights therein and all improvements
thereto shall be the sole and exclusive property of Employer.


 


13.1.2.2. 
Employer shall have the unrestricted right (but not any obligation), in its sole and absolute discretion, to use, commercialize

13.1.2.3. 
The Work Product is and shall at all times remains the Confidential Information of Employer.


 


13.2. 
Work Made for Hire; Assignment. Employee acknowledges that, by reason of being employed by Employer at the relevant times,
to the extent permitted by law, all Work Product consisting of copyrightable subject matter is “work made for hire”
as defined in the Copyright Act of 1976 (17 U.S.C. §101) and such copyrights are therefore owned by Employer. To the extent
that the foregoing does not apply, Employee hereby irrevocably assigns to Employer, and its successors and assigns, for no additional
consideration, Employee’s entire right, title and interest in and to all Work Product and Intellectual Property Rights therein
including, without limitation, the right to sue, counterclaim and recover for all past, present and future infringement, misappropriation
or dilution thereof, and all rights corresponding thereto throughout the world. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed
to reduce or limit Employer’s right, title or interest in any Work Product or Intellectual Property Rights so as to be less
in any respect than Employer would have had in the absence of this Agreement.


 


13.3. 
State Law Limitations on Assignment. Employee understands and acknowledges that Work Product does not include, and any
provision of this Agreement requiring Employee to assign (or otherwise providing for ownership by Employer of) rights to an invention
does not apply to, any invention that Employee develops entirely on his/her own time without using Employer’s equipment,
supplies, facilities or trade secret information, except for those inventions that either (i) relate at the time of conception
or reduction to practice of the invention directly to Employer’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research
or development of Employer; or (ii) result from any work performed by Employee for Employer.


 


13.4. 
Disclosure of Work Product; Maintenance of Records. During his/her employment, Employee shall, from time to time, make
written disclosures to Employer of all Work Product and shall at all times keep and maintain adequate, current, accurate and authentic
records of all Work Product. Such records may be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, flow charts, electronic files, reports
or any other format that may be specified by Employer. The records shall at all times be the sole and exclusive property of Employer
and Employee agrees not to remove such records from Employer’s premises except as may be expressly permitted by Employer
in its written policies or by its prior written consent.


 


13.5. 
Representations and Warranties.


 


13.5.1. 
No Conflicts. Employee hereby represents and warrants that he/she is not subject to any obligation to others, including
any former employers, that would be inconsistent with any provision of this Paragraph, including with respect to any Pre-Existing
Intellectual Property rights and that he/she has the right to grant the license in Paragraph 13(a)(i)(B).


 






    7


     


    

 


13.5.2. 
No Infringement. Employee hereby represents and warrants that, to Employee’s knowledge, all Pre-Existing Intellectual
Property licensed to Employer pursuant to Paragraph 13(a)(i)(B) and all Work Product will not infringe, misappropriate, dilute
or otherwise violate any third party’s Intellectual Property Rights or other rights; provided that Employee shall not be
liable for any infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violations to the extent arising out of any instructions or materials
supplied to Employee by Employer.


 


13.6. 
Further Assurances; Power of Attorney. During and after his/her employment, Employee agrees to reasonably cooperate with
Employer at Employer’s expense to (i) apply for, obtain, perfect and transfer to Employer the Work Product as well as any
and all Intellectual Property Rights in the Work Product in any jurisdiction throughout the world; and (ii) maintain, protect
and enforce the same including, without limitation, giving testimony and executing and delivering to Employer any and all applications,
oaths, declarations, affidavits, waivers, assignments and other documents and instruments as may be requested by Employer. Employee
hereby irrevocably grants Employer power of attorney to execute and deliver any such documents on Employee’s behalf in his/her
name and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to transfer the Work Product to Employer and further the transfer, prosecution,
issuance and maintenance of all Intellectual Property Rights therein, to the full extent permitted by law, if Employee does not
promptly cooperate with Employer’s request (without limiting the rights Employer shall have in such circumstances by operation
of law). This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall not be affected by Employee’s subsequent incapacity.


 


13.7. 
Moral Rights. To the extent any copyrights are assigned under this Paragraph, Employee hereby irrevocably waives in favor
of Employer, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any and all claims Employee may now or hereafter have in any jurisdiction
to all rights of paternity or attribution, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as “moral
rights” in relation to all works of authorship to which the assigned copyrights apply.


 


14. 
Remedies. Employee stipulates that a breach or threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions set forth in Paragraphs
8, 9 and 11 of this Agreement will diminish the value of Employer and will cause irreparable and continuing injury to Employer
and its customers for which an adequate legal remedy will not exist. Accordingly, Employee stipulates that, if Employee breaches
or threatens to breach any of the provisions of Paragraphs 8, 9 and 11 of this Agreement, Employer will be entitled to the following
remedies:


 


14.1. 
The entry, by a court having jurisdiction, of an order granting specific performance or injunctive relief, upon the posting of
any requisite bond and the filing with the court of an appropriate pleading and evidence specifying the provision(s) of this Agreement
breached by Employee; and


 


14.2. 
An accounting of and recovery from Employee of all revenue, compensation or other consideration that Employee or any third-party
gains from Employee’s violating or breaching the provision(s) of this Agreement.


 


Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting Employer from pursuing any other remedies available for a breach or threatened
breach of this Agreement. In addition to the remedies provided in this Agreement, Employee acknowledges that his/her breach of
any of the provisions of this Agreement during his/her employment may lead to disciplinary action, up to and including immediate
termination.


 






    8


     


    

 


15. 
Notification of Future Employer.  Employee agrees to disclose this Agreement to all prospective employers whether or not
such prospective employer’s business is competitive with, or related to, the business of Employer at any time. Employee
hereby consents to and agrees that Employer may disclose this Agreement to anyone, at any time, whether or not it has reason to
believe that Employee has breached, or threatened to breach, any provision of this Agreement.


 


16. 
Legal Matters. The validity, construction, enforcement, and interpretation of this Agreement are governed by the laws of
the State of Florida and the federal laws of the United States of America, excluding the laws of those jurisdictions pertaining
to resolution of conflicts with laws of other jurisdictions. The parties to this Agreement: (a) consent to the exclusive personal
and subject matter jurisdiction of the state and federal courts having jurisdiction over Palm Beach or County, Florida, (b) stipulate
that the proper, exclusive, and convenient venue for every legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or Employee’s
employment is Palm Beach County, Florida, for a state court proceeding and the Southern District of Florida, West Palm Beach Division,
for a federal court proceeding, and (c) waive any defense, whether asserted by motion or pleading, that Palm Beach County, Florida,
or the Southern District of Florida, West Palm Beach Division, is an improper or inconvenient venue. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, in any litigation or other proceeding between Employee and Employer arising out of or related to this
Agreement, the losing party shall reimburse the prevailing party for all attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by
that prevailing party.


 


Employee
knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waives his/her right to a jury trial in any lawsuit between Employee, on the one hand,
and Employer, on the other hand, that arises out of or is related to this Agreement or Employee’s employment, whether at
law or in equity, whether based on a claim or counterclaim arising before or after the effective date of this Agreement, regardless
of the nature of the claim or counterclaim and, including but not limited to, tort, contract, corporate and employment claims.


 


17. 
Waiver; Modification; Severability. Except as provided above regarding the modification of this Agreement by a competent
authority to make any overbroad, void or unenforceable restriction enforceable, an amendment or modification of this Agreement
will be valid and effective only if it is in writing and signed by each party to this Agreement. In addition, a waiver of any
duty, obligation, or responsibility of a party under this Agreement will be valid and effective only if it is evidenced by a writing
signed by or on behalf of the party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced. No course of dealing or delay by either
party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of any right,
power, or remedy of that party, except to the extent expressly manifested in writing by that party. Whenever possible, each provision
of this Agreement should be construed and interpreted so that it is valid and enforceable under applicable law. However, if a
provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable (subject to the above
provision regarding the modification of this Agreement by a competent authority to make an overbroad, void or unenforceable restriction
valid and enforceable), that provision will be deemed severable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement and will not affect
the validity, interpretation, or effect of the other provisions of this Agreement or the application of that provision to other
circumstances in which it is valid and enforceable.


 


18. 
Assignment; Successors; Survival of Covenants. Employee shall not assign any of his/her rights or delegate any of his/her
duties, obligations, or responsibilities under this Agreement without the advance written consent of Employer (which it may refuse
to give, in its sole discretion). Employer may assign its rights under this Agreement to any assignee or any successor in interest
of all or any part of their business, whether pursuant to a merger, reorganization, or sale, lease, or exchange of assets or stock.
This Agreement is binding on, and inures to the benefit of, Employer’s assignees and successors in interest and such successors
and assignees are authorized to enforce all provisions and restrictive covenants herein.

19. 
Entire Agreement; Miscellaneous. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of Employer and Employee regarding the subject
matter contained herein and supersedes any prior understanding or agreement, whether written or oral, between Employer and Employee
with respect to the subject matter contained herein. Employer hereby provides notice to Employee pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §1833
that an individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure
of a trade secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly,
or to any attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made
in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. Further, an individual who files a
lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the employer’s trade secrets
to the attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the individual: (a) files any document containing
the trade secret under seal; and (b) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Employee is advised to
consult an attorney prior to disclosing any trade secrets or Confidential Information as such immunity is only applicable in limited
situations. Employee further understands that nothing contained in this Agreement limits his/her ability to communicate with,
or file a complaint or charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”), the National Labor Relations
Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Department
of Justice (“DOJ”) or any other federal, state, or local governmental agency or commission (collectively, “Government
Agencies”), or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by Government Agencies, including
providing documents or other information, without notice to Employer; provided, however, that Employee may not disclose Employer
information that is protected by the attorney-client privilege, except as expressly authorized by law. Employee retains the right
to communicate with the Government Agencies and such communication can be initiated by him/her or in response to the government
and is not limited by any non-disparagement or confidentiality obligation under this Agreement. This Agreement does not limit
Employee’s right to receive an award from the SEC or DOJ for information provided to the SEC or DOJ.


 


20. 
Counterparts/Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such
counterpart. Delivery of executed copies of this Agreement, or subsequent addendums to this Agreement, by one party to the other
