	7.	Inventions and Innovations, Intellectual Property Rights 

 All inventions and technical and commercial innovations, records, files, documentation, equipment and the like and any and all intellectual property rights of any kind relating to the business of the Company, which the Employee shall
invent, develop, conceive, produce, prepare during the term of his employment, regardless of whether the Employee thereby performed his contractual duties, shall be and remain the sole property of the Company or shall be assigned by the Employee to
the Company, and, at the Company’s request and expense, the Employee shall apply to the proper issuing authorities for such intellectual property rights as the Company may designate and shall execute any and all documentation required for the
issuance of such patents, trademarks and models or other intellectual property rights. 
 To that effect, any and all ideas of a technological
kind which the Employee creates or in which creation he participates while performing his employment activities, belong to the Company, regardless of whether such ideas are 
  

	 	•	 	 protected or not under the applicable law; 

  

	 	•	 	 invented during or not during the performance of the Employee’s duties; 

  

	 	•	 	 invented at the Employee’s work place or elsewhere.

 4 

 In the event of any breach of this obligation not to compete, the Employee shall be obliged to pay to the
Employer a contractual penalty in the amount of 50% of the salary paid in the preceding calendar year. 
 Payment of the contractual penalty
does not relieve of complying with this competition clause. In addition, the Employer may claim the proven damage which exceeds the contractual penalty and have the competitive activity of the Employee prohibited. 
  

	9.	Amendments of the Employment Contract, Partial Invalidity 

 Except as otherwise referred to herein, this Employment Contract contains the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and no modification or waiver of any provision hereof will be binding upon the Parties
unless in writing and signed by both Parties agreeing to such modification or waiver. 
 The invalidity or enforceability of any particular
provision of this Employment Contract shall not affect the other provisions, and this Employment Contract shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provisions were omitted.

Agreement, or to recover damages as the result of the alleged breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing Party therein shall be entitled to recover all reasonable costs incurred in connection therewith against the Party
commencing such action or the Party who has breached this Agreement, as the case may be, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. 
 18.
Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.
