reimbursements that Executive is entitled to receive in accordance with
applicable Company policies in effect from time to time;

 

(iii)         “Cause” shall mean: (A) the plea of guilty or

of interest; and

 

(iv)        “termination by the Company for Disability” shall
mean the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company following (A) Executive’s

this Section 2, Executive shall have an obligation to inform the Company
regarding Executive’s employment status following a Qualifying Termination and
during the Severance Period.

 

3.                  RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

 

(a)          CONFIDENTIALITY. Executive
acknowledges that, during his employment by the Company, Executive will occupy
a position of trust and confidence. The Company and/or its affiliates shall
provide Executive with “Confidential Information” as referred to below.
Executive shall not, except as may be required to perform Executive’s duties or
as required by applicable law, without limitation in time, communicate,
divulge, disseminate, disclose to others or otherwise use, whether directly or
indirectly, any Confidential Information regarding the Company and/or
any of affiliates.

 

“Confidential
Information” shall mean information about the Company or  any of its
affiliates, and their respective businesses, employees, consultants,
contractors, clients and customers that is not disclosed by the Company or any
of its affiliates for financial reporting purposes or otherwise generally made
available to the public (other than by Executive’s breach of the terms hereof)
and that was learned or developed by Executive in the course of  his employment by the
Company or any of its affiliates, including  (without limitation) any
proprietary knowledge, trade secrets, data, formulae, information and client
and customer lists

 

2

 

and all papers, resumes, and records (including
computer records) of the documents containing such Confidential Information.
Executive acknowledges that such Confidential Information is specialized,
unique in nature and of great value to the Company and its affiliates, and that
such information gives the Company and its affiliates a competitive advantage.
Executive agrees to deliver or return to the Company, at the Company’s request
at any time or upon termination of Executive’s employment or as soon thereafter
as possible, all documents, computer tapes and disks, records, lists, data,

not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly,
engage in or become associated with a Competitive Activity. For purposes of
this Agreement, (i) “Competitive Activity” means any business or other

(b)(ii)(B) through (E) shall only apply if Executive has provided
services on behalf of the Company or its affiliates in direct support of the
businesses described in such subsections.

 

Executive shall be considered to have become “associated
with a Competitive Activity” if Executive becomes directly or indirectly
involved as an owner, principal, employee, officer, director, independent
contractor, representative, stockholder, financial backer, agent, partner,
member, advisor, lender, consultant or in any other individual or
representative capacity with any individual, partnership, corporation or other

of thirty-six (36) months following Executive’s termination of employment for
any reason, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Company, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit or recruit any employee of the
Company, or any of its affiliates with whom Executive has had direct contact

agrees that all rights of any kind in any Employee Developments belong
exclusively to the Company. In order to permit the Company to exploit such
Employee Developments, Executive shall promptly and fully report all such
Employee Developments to the Company. Except in furtherance of his obligations
as an employee of the Company, Executive shall not use or reproduce any portion
of any record associated with any Employee Development without prior written
consent of the Company or, as applicable, its affiliates. Executive agrees that

the meaning of

 

5

 

Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and
regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if this Agreement or any amounts or benefits payable to Executive
hereunder is subject to Section 409A and if the Executive is a “Specified
Employee” (as defined under Section 409A) as of the date of Executive’s
termination of employment, then the payment of such amounts or benefits, if
any, scheduled to be paid by the Company to Executive hereunder during the
first twelve (12) month period beginning on the date of a termination of
employment shall be delayed during such twelve (12) month period and shall
commence immediately following the end of such twelve (12) month period
(and, if applicable, the period in which such payments were scheduled to be
made if not for such delay shall be extended accordingly). In no event shall
the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with
respect to any taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A with respect
to any amounts or benefits paid to Executive hereunder.

 

7.                  SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS. The
obligations contained in Section 3 shall, to the extent provided in Section 3,
survive a Qualifying Termination and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable
thereafter in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction that any restriction in Section 3 is
excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under
applicable law, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be
modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law.

 

8.                  TERMINATION OF PRIOR
AGREEMENTS. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the parties and, as of the Effective Date, terminates and
supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or
oral) between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor anyone acting on
its behalf has made, and is not making, and in executing this Agreement,
Executive has not relied upon, any representations, promises or inducements
except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement.

 

9.                  ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS. This Agreement
is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the
consent of the others, assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder; provided, that the
Company may assign this Agreement to, or allow any of its obligations to be
fulfilled by, or take actions through, any affiliate of the Company and, in the
event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company (a “Transaction”) with or to any other
individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject to the provisions hereof,
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor
shall discharge and perform all the promises, covenants, duties, and
obligations of the Company hereunder, and in the event of any such assignment
or Transaction, all references herein to the “Company” shall refer to the
Company’s assignee or successor hereunder.

 

10.                WITHHOLDING. The Company shall make such
deductions and withhold such amounts from each payment and benefit made or
provided to Executive hereunder, as may be required from time to time by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.

 

6

 

11.                COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be
executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

 

12.                HEADING REFERENCES. Section headings
in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and
shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

 

13.                REMEDIES FOR BREACH. Executive
expressly agrees and understands that Executive will notify the Company in
writing of any alleged breach of this Agreement by the Company, and the Company
will have thirty (30) days from receipt of Executive’s notice to cure any such
breach. Executive expressly agrees and understands that in the event of a
Qualifying Termination, the Company’s contractual obligations to Executive
shall be fulfilled through compliance with its obligations under Section 1
of this Agreement.

 

Executive
expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by
Executive of Section 3 of this Agreement will be inadequate and that
damages flowing from such breach are not usually susceptible to being measured
in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that, upon Executive’s
violation of any provision of Section 3, the Company shall be entitled to
obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and
obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach as well
as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such
violation. Nothing shall be deemed to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in
equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Agreement,
including Section 3, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.

 

14.                WAIVER; MODIFICATION. Failure to
insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions
hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor
shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict
compliance with, any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be
deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or
times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except by a writing
executed by each party hereto.

 

15.                SEVERABILITY. In the event that a court
of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in
violation of any law or public policy, only the portions of this Agreement that
violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this
Agreement that do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in
full force and effect. Further, any court order striking any portion of this
Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as
much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties under this Agreement,

proprietary

Executive shall, both during and after her employment by the Company, upon the
Company’s request, promptly execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Company

JURISDICTION. This Agreement and the-
legal relations thus created between the parties hereto (including, without
limitation, any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement) shall be
governed by and construed under and in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of Florida without reference to its principles of conflicts of laws. Any
such dispute will be heard and determined before an appropriate federal court
located in the State of Florida in Miami-Dade County, or, if not maintainable
therein, then in an appropriate Florida state court located in Miami-Dade
County, and each party hereto submits itself and its property to the

6.           SECTION 409A
OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. This Agreement is not
intended to constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the
meaning of

 

5

 

Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and
regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if this Agreement or any amounts or benefits payable to Executive
hereunder is subject to Section 409A and if the Executive is a “Specified
Employee” (as defined under Section 409A) as of the date of Executive’s
termination of employment, then the payment of such amounts or benefits, if
any, scheduled to be paid by the Company to Executive hereunder during the
first six (6) month period beginning on the date of a termination of
employment shall be delayed during such six (6) month period and shall
commence immediately following the end of such six (6) month period (and, if applicable, the period in
which such payments were scheduled to be made if not for such delay shall be
extended accordingly). In no event shall the Company be required to pay
Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or
penalties imposed under Section 409A with respect to any amounts or
benefits paid to Executive hereunder.

 

7.           SURVIVAL OF
PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in Section 3
shall, to the extent provided in Section 3, survive a Qualifying
Termination and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable thereafter in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction that any restriction in Section 3 is excessive in
duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under applicable law, it
is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or
amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted
by applicable law.

 

8.           TERMINATION OF
PRIOR AGREEMENTS. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the parties and, as of the Effective Date, terminates and
supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or
oral) between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor anyone acting on
its behalf has made, and is not making, and in executing this Agreement,
Executive has not relied upon, any representations, promises or inducements
except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement.

 

9.          ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS. This Agreement
is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the
consent of the others, assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder; provided, that the
Company may assign this Agreement to, or allow any of its obligations to be
fulfilled by, or take actions through, any affiliate of the Company and, in the
event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Company (a “Transaction”) with or to any other
individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject to the provisions hereof,
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such successor and such successor
shall discharge and perform all the promises, covenants, duties, and
obligations of the Company hereunder, and in the event of any such assignment
or Transaction, all references herein to the “Company” shall refer to the
Company’s assignee or successor hereunder.

 

10.         WITHHOLDING. The Company
shall make such deductions and withhold such amounts from each payment and
benefit made or provided to Executive hereunder, as may be required from time
to time by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.

 

6

 

11.         COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one
and the same instrument.

 

12.         HEADING
REFERENCES. Section headings in
this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall
not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

 

13.         REMEDIES
FOR BREACH. Executive expressly
agrees and understands that Executive will notify the Company in writing of any
alleged breach of this Agreement by the Company, and the Company will have
thirty (30) days from receipt of Executive’s notice to cure any such breach.
Executive expressly agrees and understands that in the event of a Qualifying
Termination, the Company’s contractual obligations to Executive shall be
fulfilled through compliance with its obligations under Section 1 of this
Agreement.

 

Executive expressly agrees and understands that the
remedy at law for any breach by Executive of Section 3 of this Agreement
will be inadequate and that damages flowing from such breach are not usually
susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is
acknowledged that, upon Executive’s violation of any provision of Section 3,
the Company shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent
jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and obtain a temporary order restraining
any threatened or further breach as well as an equitable accounting of all
profits or benefits arising out of such violation. Nothing shall be deemed to
limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of
any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Section 3, which may be
pursued by or available to the Company.

 

14.         WAIVER;
MODIFICATION. Failure to insist upon
strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof shall
not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any
waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with,
any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any
other time or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except
by a writing executed by each party hereto.

 

15.         SEVERABILITY. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any
portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public policy, only the
portions of this Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be
stricken. All portions of this Agreement that do not violate any statute or
public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, any court order
striking any portion of this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as
narrowly as possible to give as
much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties under this Agreement.
