will deliver to the Company any compositions, articles, devices, computer
software, computer diskettes and other storage media including all copies or
specimens thereof in their possession (whether at the place of work, at home or
elsewhere), that have been prepared or made by the Contractor or others, and any
other items which disclose or embody Confidential Information, or reproductions
of any aforementioned items developed by the Contractor  pursuant to
services provided by the Contractor or otherwise belonging to the Company, its
successors or assignees, including, but not limited to, those records maintained
pursuant to Section 2(c).
  6.  Restrictive
Covenants.
  (a)  Confidentiality.  The
Contractor agrees that he will not during the Term or thereafter divulge to
anyone (other than the Company or any persons designated by the Company) any
knowledge or information of any type whatsoever of a confidential nature
relating to the business of the Company, including, without limitation, all
types of trade secrets, business strategies, marketing, sales and distribution
plans.  The Contractor further agrees that he will not disclose,
publish or make use of any such knowledge or information of a confidential
nature (other than in the performance of the Contractor’s duties hereunder)
without the prior written consent of the Company.  This provision does
not apply to information which becomes available publicly without the fault of
the Contractor or information which the Contractor is required to disclose in
legal proceedings, provided the Contractor gives advance notice to the Board and
an opportunity to for the Company to resist such disclosure.
  (b)  Competitive Business
Restrictions.  During the Term, the Contractor shall not engage
directly or indirectly, whether as an Contractor, independent contractor,
consultant, partner, shareholder or otherwise, in a business or other endeavor
which would or might interfere with any of his duties or obligations hereunder
or which is competitive with or similar to the business of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or affiliates.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Contractor shall have the right to own up to one percent (1%) of the shares of
any publicly traded company in a business which is competitive with or similar
to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates.
  (c)  Non-Solicitation.  The
Contractor further agrees that during the Term and during the period beginning
on the Date of Termination and ending on the first anniversary of the Date of
Termination, the Contractor will not engage or attempt to engage or assist
anyone else to engage any person who is a Restricted Employee.  As
used herein, “Restricted Employee” means any person engaged by the Company or
any of its subsidiaries or affiliates as of the Date of Termination or at any
time during the 120 day period prior to the Date of Termination.
  (d)  Non-Compete.  In
consideration of the Company’s agreements herein, the Contractor agrees, in
addition to any other obligation imposed by this Section 6, that he will not,
during the Restricted Period, engage directly or indirectly (other than as a
holder of not in excess of one percent (1%) of the shares of any publicly traded
company), whether as an Contractor, independent contractor, consultant, partner,
shareholder or otherwise, in a business or other endeavor which is competitive
with or similar to any business of the Company or any potential business which
as of the Date of Termination has been submitted to the Board for consideration
and is under active consideration by the Board (any such business or endeavor, a
“Competitive
Business”), anywhere in the United States.  The Contractor
specifically acknowledges that he is not a founder, creator or builder of the
business of the Company but is a key Contractor of the Company, he has access to
confidential information, trade secrets, and the like, of the Company; that he
has independent means of supporting himself and his family; and that in view of
the foregoing, the restrictions imposed by this Section 6(d) are reasonably
necessary to protect the Company against unfair competition by the Contractor
and are not unduly burdensome to the Contractor. As used in this Agreement, the
term “Restricted
Period” means the period beginning on the Date of Termination and ending
on the third anniversary of the Date of Termination.
   4
  (e)  Non-Disparagement.  The
Company agrees not to disparage the Contractor and the Contractor agrees not to
disparage the Company, any of its products or practices, or any of its
directors, Contractors, agents, representatives, stockholders or affiliates,
either orally or in writing, at any time during or subsequent to the Term of
this Agreement.
  (f)  Interpretation.  In
the event the terms of this Section 6 shall be determined by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too
great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its
being too extensive in any other respect, it will be interpreted to extend only
over the maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable, over the
maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable, or to the maximum
extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as
determined by such court in such action.  As used in this Section 6,
the term “Company” shall
include the Company, its parent, related entities, and any of its direct or
indirect subsidiaries or affiliates.
  (g)  The Restrictive Covenants of
Confidentiality, Competitive Business Restrictions, Non-Competition , Non
Solicitation and Non Disparagement shall survive termination for a period of
five (5) years.
  7.  Representations
and Warranties of Contractor.  The Contractor represents and
warrants that the Contractor is not a party to any other Consulting agreement,
noncompetition agreement or other agreement which restriction could interfere
with the Contractor’s Consulting with the Company or the Company’s rights and
the Contractor’s obligations hereunder and that the Contractor’s acceptance of
Consulting with the Company and the performance of the Contractor’s duties
hereunder will not breach the provisions of any contract, agreement or
understanding to which the Contractor is party or any duty owed by the
Contractor to any other person or entity.
  8.  Information
of Others.  The Contractor agrees that Contractor will not,
during his Consulting or service with the Company, use or disclose any
confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or
concurrent engager or other person or entity and that Contractor will not bring
onto the premises of the Company any unpublished document or other confidential
or proprietary information belonging to any such engager, person or entity
unless consented to in writing by such engager, person or entity.
  9.  Injunctive
Relief.  The Contractor recognizes and acknowledges that a
breach of the covenants contained in Section 6 will cause irreparable damage to
Company and its goodwill, the exact amount of which will be difficult or
impossible to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach will
be inadequate.  Accordingly, the Contractor agrees that in the event
of a breach of any of the covenants contained in Section 6, in addition to any
other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company will be
entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief.
  10.  Assignment
and Successors.  The Company may assign its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to any entity which is a successor to all or
substantially all the assets of the Company, by merger or
otherwise.  This Agreement may not be assigned by the Contractor. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the
Contractor and their respective successors, assigns, personnel and legal
representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, and
legatees, as applicable.
  11.  Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be governed, construed, interpreted
and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware,
without reference to the principles of conflicts of law of the State of Delaware
or any other jurisdiction, and where applicable, the laws of the United States.
Venue is established in Delaware and both parties hereto irrevocable submit
themselves to venue therein.

  12.  Dispute
Resolution.Any controversy or claim
arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be resolved by arbitration
before a panel of one arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration
Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then pertaining, except
where those rules conflict with this provision, in which case this provision
controls.  Any court with jurisdiction shall enforce this clause and
enter judgment on any award.  The arbitrator shall be selected within
twenty business days from commencement of the arbitration from the AAA’s
National Roster of Arbitrators pursuant to agreement or through selection
procedures administered by the AAA.  Within 45 days of initiation of
arbitration, the parties shall reach agreement upon and thereafter follow
procedures, including limits on discovery, assuring that the arbitration will be
concluded and the award rendered within no more than eight months from selection
of the arbitrator or, failing agreement, procedures meeting such time limits
will be designed by the AAA and adhered to by the Parties.  The
arbitration shall be held in New Jersey and the arbitrators shall apply the
substantive law of New Jersey, except that the interpretation and enforcement of
this arbitration provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration
Act.  Prior to commencement of arbitration, emergency relief is
available from any court to avoid irreparable harm.  The arbitrator
shall not award either party punitive, exemplary, multiplied or consequential
damages, or attorneys’ fees or costs.
  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that the other party would be
irreparably harmed if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed
in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement
could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages
alone.  Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which
such parties may be entitled at law or in equity, they shall be entitled to
enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and
to temporary preliminary and permanent injunctive relief in any court of
competent jurisdiction to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the
provisions of this Agreement.
