The Employee shall promptly disclose all Inventions to the Employer, shall execute at the request of the Employer any assignments or other documents the Employer may deem necessary to protect or perfect the rights of the Companies therein, and shall assist the Companies, at the Companies’ expense, in obtaining, defending and enforcing the Companies’ rights therein.

The Employee shall not, during or after his term of employment, disclose any or any part of the Confidential Information to any person, firm, corporation, association, or any other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, directly or indirectly, except as may be required pursuant to his employment hereunder; provided, that Confidential Information shall in no event include (a) Confidential Information which was generally available to the public at the time of disclosure by the Employee or (b) Confidential Information which becomes publicly available other than as a consequence of the breach by the Employee of his confidentiality obligations hereunder.

Nothing contained within this §8 shall prohibit the Employee from disclosing Confidential Information if such disclosure is required by law, governmental process or valid legal process.  In the event that the Employee is legally compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information, he shall provide the Employer with prompt written notice so that the Employer, at its sole cost and expense, may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.  In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or that Employer waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, Employee shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that he is advised by counsel is legally required to be disclosed. 
(b) The Employee represents and warrants to the Employer that, to the best of his knowledge, the employment by the Employer of the Employee hereunder and the services to be performed by the Employee pursuant to this Agreement are not prohibited by, will not constitute a breach of and will comply in all respects with any and all covenants, obligations and other contractual commitments that have been undertaken by the Employee in connection with the Confidentiality, Non-competition, Non-solicitation Agreement HR5 by and among the Employee and Axcess Financial Services, Inc. (“Axcess”) dated as of June 11, 2012 (the “Prior Agreement”), which the Employee believes to be the operative agreement pertaining to his post-employment obligations with Axcess.  The Employee shall not breach or violate any covenants, obligations or other contractual commitments contained in the Prior Agreement in connection with any employment or services engagements with the Employer.
§9.    NON‐COMPETITION.  During the term of the Employee’s employment hereunder and for the Designated Period (as defined below) after termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder, the Employee will not (a) anywhere within any county in which any Company conducts business, engage, directly or indirectly, alone or as a shareholder (other than as a holder of less than one percent (1%) of the common stock of any publicly traded corporation), partner, officer, director, employee, consultant or advisor, or otherwise in any way participate in or become associated with, any other business organization that is engaged or becomes engaged in any business that provides the same or any substantially similar services or products offered or planned to be offered by any of the Companies during the term of the Employee’s employment or at the time of the Employee’s termination or that any Company has notified the Employee at any time prior to the time of such termination that it proposes to conduct and for which any of the Companies have, prior to the time of such termination, expended substantial resources (the “Designated Industry”), or (b) solicit any employee of any of the Companies to leave its employ for alternative employment, or hire or offer employment to any person to whom the Employee actually knows any of the Companies has offered employment.  For purposes hereof, the term “Designated Period” shall mean eighteen (18) months.  The Employee acknowledges that the provisions of this §9 are essential to protect the business and goodwill of the Companies.  The Employee will continue to be bound by the provisions of this §9 until their expiration and shall not be entitled to any compensation from the Employer with respect thereto except as provided above.  If at any time the provisions of this §9 shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to area, duration or scope of activity, this §9 shall be considered divisible and shall become and be immediately amended to only such area, duration and scope of activity as shall be determined to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter; and the Employee agrees that this §9 as so amended shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.  The Employee hereby acknowledges that he has agreed to be bound by the provisions of this §9 in consideration for the compensation, severance and other benefits to be provided by the Employer to the Employee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(i)    Indemnity.  If (i) Axcess threatens or commences any claim, action or proceeding alleging that the Employee’s employment with the Employer and/or the services provided by the Employee in accordance with this Agreement (an “Axcess Action”) violate the Prior Agreement and any and all other covenants, obligations, or contractual commitments that Axcess alleges that the Employee is bound by in conjunction with his employment with Axcess, and (ii) such Axcess Action does not arise from any breach by the Employee of the representations, warranties or covenants under §8(b) or any other provision of this Agreement, the Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Employee from and against all losses, expenses, damages and liabilities arising therefrom (including reasonable defense costs) up to $50,000.00, or such additional amount as the parties may subsequently agree to in writing.  The Employer shall have the authority to assume and control the defense of  an Axcess Action and, in any such case, the Employee shall provide all information, assistance and cooperation as the Employer may reasonably request in connection therewith. 
(j)    Section 409A.  
(i)    Purpose. This section is intended to help ensure that compensation paid or delivered to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement either is paid in compliance with, or is exempt from, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”).  However, the Employer does not warrant to the Employee that all compensation paid or delivered to him for his is services will be exempt from, or paid in compliance with, Section 409A.  
(ii)    Amounts Payable On Account of Termination. For the purposes determining when amounts otherwise payable on account of the Employee’s termination of employment under this Agreement will be paid, which amounts become due because of his termination of employment, “termination of employment” or words of similar import, as used in this Agreement, shall be construed as the date that the Employee first incurs a “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A on or following termination of employment.

Any taxable reimbursement of business or other expenses as specified under this Agreement shall be subject to the following conditions: (1) the expenses eligible for reimbursement in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year; (2) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (3) the right to reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
(iv)    Releases. Any amounts otherwise payable on account of the Employee’s termination of employment under this Agreement which (i) are conditioned in any part on a release of claims and (ii) would otherwise be paid (assuming the release is given) prior to the last day on which the release could become irrevocable assuming the Employee’s latest possible execution and delivery of the release (such last day, the “Release Deadline”) shall be paid, if ever, only on the Release Deadline, even if the Employee’s release becomes irrevocable before that date. The Employer may elect to make such payment up to thirty (30) days prior to the Release Deadline, however. If no such last day is specified in this Agreement, then such last day will be the sixtieth (60th) day after the Employee’s termination of employment.
(v)    Interpretative Rules. In applying Section 409A to amounts paid pursuant to this Agreement, any right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.
