The Buyer will cause its Representatives to observe the provisions contained in this Section 6.2(b), and will be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any of its employees and agents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Seller will keep all of the Buyer's and each of its Affiliates respective Confidential Information (including all information relating to the Purchased Assets and the operation of the Business before and after the Closing) confidential and will not, without the Buyer's prior written consent, disclose, make available, or use any of such Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, and will not use any of the Buyer's or any of its Affiliates' respective Confidential Information except for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement and the Related Documents; <u>provided, however</u>, that the Seller may reveal the Buyer's and its Affiliates' respective Confidential Information to its Representatives (i) who need to know such Confidential Information for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement and the Related Documents, (ii) who are informed by the Seller of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information, and (iii) who agree to act in accordance with the provisions contained in this Section 6.2(c).

**6.3 Enforcement of Restrictive Covenants.** 

The Parties agree that, to the extent applicable, the Parties may enforce the non-compete, non-solicitation and non-disclosure covenants set forth in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 above (collectively the "<u>Restrictive Covenants</u>") by obtaining appropriate court orders and/or equity injunctions. The Parties hereby agree that a breach by one Party of the Restrictive Covenants will cause irreparable harm to the non-breaching Party and such non-breach Party shall be entitled to obtain an injunction against the breaching Party in order to enforce such Restrictive Covenants. Such right to an injunction shall be in addition to any other rights that the Parties may have against each other. Further, in the event of a breach of Section 6.1, the Restrictive Period shall be automatically extended for a like period of time from the date the Seller Group ceases such violation. The Parties agree that the Restrictive Covenants are independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of one Party against the other, whether predicated upon a different Section of this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the other Party of the Restrictive Covenants contained herein. In addition to the foregoing, in the event that any issue is ever raised before a court of competent jurisdiction as to the reasonableness of the Restrictive Covenants contained herein, either as to time or place, such court shall be authorized, and the parties hereto so intend, to grant full or partial enforcement of the terms hereof as the said court shall determine. The Parties covenant and agree that, in addition to the above, any bond required by the court in connection with any temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction shall not exceed $250.

**6.4 Use of Proprietary Name.**

Following the Closing, the Seller will promptly cease the use of the names "BMCH" and "Triad Staffing" and "Triad Logistics". Seller agrees to commence all reasonable actions to change its name to a name that does not use the foregoing name or similar names, within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date. The names "BMCH.", "Triad Staffing" and "Triad Logistics" constitute transferred Proprietary Rights. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller is not transferring "Triad Personnel Services," or any other "Triad" derivative brand names other than "BMCH", "Triad Staffing." and "Triad Logistics."

**6.5 Employee Matters.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Seller agrees that it shall terminate all employees as of the Closing Date and that it shall be solely responsible for paying all accrued but unpaid salaries, wages, benefits, sick pay, employment taxes, workers' compensation premiums and any other payments due by the Seller to its employees as of Closing.

The Seller agrees to coordinate such terminations with the Buyer so that the Buyer may have the opportunity to hire those employees as the Buyer may desire. The hiring of Deborah Santora-Tuohy, on terms reasonably acceptable to Buyer, is a condition precedent to the Closing of this transaction. Anything in this Section 6.5 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Buyer will offer employment to the number of employees and under such terms as are necessary so as not trigger any notice requirements under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act or applicable mini-WARN Acts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Seller will be responsible for processing and paying any payroll expenses for all of its employees through the Closing Date, and the Buyer shall be responsible for payroll expenses after the Closing Date for those that it employs.

**6.6 Post-Closing Taxes.**

**8.6 Governing Law.**

This Agreement will be construed, governed by and interpreted in accordance with the domestic Laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect to any choice of law or any conflicting provision, rule or term (whether of the State of Ohio or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Ohio to be applied.

Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for herself, himself or itself and her, his or its assets and properties, to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any Ohio state court or United States federal court located in Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio and any appellate court from any such Ohio state court or federal court (each individually, a "<u>Designated Court</u>"), in any Proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or for enforcement or recognition of any judgment arising therefrom, based upon, connected thereto, incidental thereto or related thereto.
