                Control;

            

    

    

    
      	
              (iii)

      Initial Term. 

    

    (c) Notwithstanding
      anything herein to the contrary, and regardless of the time of termination

      provided that Company has delivered to Employee a further notice after the
      end
      of such forty-five (45) day period asserting that Employee has failed to comply

      certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Company adopted by the
      affirmative vote of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the entire
      Board
      at a meeting called and held for that purpose and at which Employee was given

      Employer.

    

    (d) “Termination

      Employee within 90 days following (i) a material reduction in Employee’s

      the
      period remaining during the Initial Term, whichever is longer. Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, a termination shall not be treated as a Termination for Good
      Reason (i) if Employee shall have consented in writing to the occurrence of

      event giving rise to the claim of Termination for Good Reason or (ii) unless
      Employee shall have delivered a written notice to the President of Company
      within 60 days of his having actual knowledge of the occurrence of one of such

      Cause. Subject to Company’s obligations to make the Base Salary payments

      whichever is longer, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit
      the
      right of Company to terminate Employee’s employment at any time for cause or
      without cause. A termination on account of Employee’s death shall not be deemed
      a termination by Company.

    

    (g) “Termination
      by Employee not for Good Reason” means any termination of Employee’s employment
      by Employee for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, Employee’s

      full and complete satisfaction of Employee’s rights under this Agreement and any
      other claims he may have in respect of his employment by Company or any of
      its
      subsidiaries. Such amounts shall constitute liquidated damages with respect
      to
      any and all such rights and claims, shall not be subject to any offset or
      mitigation, and, upon Employee’s receipt of such amounts, Company shall be
      released and discharged from any and all liability to Employee in connection
      with this Agreement or otherwise in connection with Employee’s employment with
      Company and its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein

      claims he may have in connection with the termination of, or arising out of,
      his
      employment with Company and (ii) nothing in this Section 6.6 shall be construed
      to waive, release or otherwise limit any amounts required to be paid hereunder
      or any benefits due and payable to Employee under the terms of any employee
      pension benefit plan, as defined in Section 3(2) of the Employee Retirement
      Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or any other Vested
      Benefit.

    

    6.7 Surrender
      of Records. etc.
      Upon
      termination of employment with Company, Employee shall promptly deliver to
      Company all records, manuals, books, blank forms, documents, letters, memoranda,
      notes, notebooks, reports, data, tables, calculations or copies thereof, which
      are the property of Company and which relate in any way to the business,
      products, practices or techniques of Company, and all other property, trade
      secrets and confidential information of Company, including, but not limited
      to,
      all documents which, in whole or in part, contain any trade secrets or
      confidential information of Company, which in any of these cases are in his
      possession or under his control.

    

    6.8 Survival.
      Notwithstanding any termination of the Agreement, Employee, in consideration
      of
      his employment hereunder to the date of such termination, shall remain bound
      by
      the provisions of this Agreement which specifically relate to his activities
      or
      obligations upon or subsequent to the termination of Employee’s employment. The
      salary and other benefits provided herein shall be paid to Employee up to the
      effective date of termination of this Agreement for whatever reason, including
      the death of Employee, and not thereafter.

    

    6.9 Death
      of Employee.
      In the
      event of Employee’s death during the term of his employment hereunder, Company
      shall pay to Employee’s surviving spouse or to the executor or administrator of
      Employee’s estate (if his spouse shall not survive him) an amount equal to the
      installments of his Base Salary then payable for the month in which he dies
      and
      for an additional twelve (12) months.

    

    6.10 Disability
      of Employee.
      Employee shall be covered by Company’s disability benefit plan as such plan may
      from time to time exist. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment for
      reason of his disability in accordance with Section 6.5(d). In such event,
      Company shall be obligated to pay Employee monthly installments of his Base
      Salary for the shorter of (i) the expiration of the Initial Term or (ii) one
      (1)
      year after the date on which written notice of such termination is received
      by
      Employee. The foregoing payment obligations shall be reduced by the amount
      of
      any payment made to such Employee under the coverage then afforded to Employee
      by any disability benefit plan in effect at the time such disability
      determination is made.

      fully described below, and are not intended to eliminate Employee’s
      post-employment competition with Company, nor is it intended to impair or
      infringe upon Employee’s right to work, earn a living, or acquire and possess

      post-employment restrictions set forth in this Section 7 are reasonable in
      scope

      not, unduly impair his ability to earn a living after the termination of this
      Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that such restrictions do not impose
      on
      him (a) any greater restraint than is reasonably necessary to protect the
      business and goodwill of the Company or (b) any undue hardship. Therefore,
      subject to the limitations of reasonableness imposed by law upon the
      restrictions set forth herein by the time and geographical area described below,
      Employee shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section
      7.

      Company or its affiliated entities or not more than five percent (5%) of any
      class of securities of any corporation having a class of securities registered
      pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Employee
      acknowledges that (x) the provisions of this Agreement are reasonable and
      necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Company and (y) any violation
      of this Agreement will result in irreparable injury to Company and damages
      at
      law would not be reasonable or adequate compensation to Company for a violation
      of this Agreement.

      confidential relationship with Company or its affiliated entities or by a
      confidentiality or other similar agreement; (c) was known to Employee on a

          adequate remedy to Company; and

      case styled, Jones
      v. Deeter, 112 Nev. 291, 913 P.2d 1271 (1996),

                a Change of Control Triggering Event as hereafter
                described.

      failed to remedy such alleged breach within forty-five (45) days from his

      by Employee for Good Reason” means a termination of Employee’s employment by
      Employee within 90 days following (i) a material reduction in Employee’s

      the
      period remaining during the Initial Term, whichever is longer. Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, a termination shall not be treated as a Termination for Good

      whichever is longer, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit
      the
      right of Company to terminate Employee’s employment at any time for cause or
      without cause. A termination on account of Employee’s death shall not be deemed
      a termination by Company.

    

    (g) “Termination

      full and complete satisfaction of Employee’s rights under this Agreement and any
      other claims he may have in respect of his employment by Company or any of
      its
      subsidiaries. Such amounts shall constitute liquidated damages with respect
      to
      any and all such rights and claims, shall not be subject to any offset or
      mitigation, and, upon Employee’s receipt of such amounts, Company shall be

      his
      employment with Company and (ii) nothing in this Section 6.6 shall be construed
      to waive, release or otherwise limit any amounts required to be paid hereunder
      or any benefits due and payable to Employee under the terms of any employee
      pension benefit plan, as defined in Section 3(2) of the Employee Retirement
      Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or any other Vested
      Benefit.

    

    6.7 Surrender
      of Records. etc.
      Upon
      termination of employment with Company, Employee shall promptly deliver to
      Company all records, manuals, books, blank forms, documents, letters, memoranda,
      notes, notebooks, reports, data, tables, calculations or copies thereof, which
      are the property of Company and which relate in any way to the business,
      products, practices or techniques of Company, and all other property, trade
      secrets and confidential information of Company, including, but not limited
      to,
      all documents which, in whole or in part, contain any trade secrets or
      confidential information of Company, which in any of these cases are in his
      possession or under his control.

    

    6.8 Survival.
      Notwithstanding any termination of the Agreement, Employee, in consideration
      of
      his employment hereunder to the date of such termination, shall remain bound
      by
      the provisions of this Agreement which specifically relate to his activities
      or
      obligations upon or subsequent to the termination of Employee’s employment. The
      salary and other benefits provided herein shall be paid to Employee up to the
      effective date of termination of this Agreement for whatever reason, including
      the death of Employee, and not thereafter.

      installments of his Base Salary then payable for the month in which he dies
      and
      for an additional twelve (12) months.

    

    6.10 Disability
      of Employee.
      Employee shall be covered by Company’s disability benefit plan as such plan may
      from time to time exist. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment for
      reason of his disability in accordance with Section 6.5(d). In such event,
      Company shall be obligated to pay Employee monthly installments of his Base
      Salary for the shorter of (i) the expiration of the Initial Term or (ii) one
      (1)
      year after the date on which written notice of such termination is received
      by
      Employee. The foregoing payment obligations shall be reduced by the amount
      of
      any payment made to such Employee under the coverage then afforded to Employee
      by any disability benefit plan in effect at the time such disability
      determination is made.

      requirement so that Company may seek an appropriate protective order prior
      to
      any such required disclosure by Employee.

      the
      Restrictive Covenants, Company shall have the following rights and remedies,

                from
                violating or threatening to violate the Restrictive Covenants and

                of the
                Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to Company and
                that
                money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Company;

              (ii)

            	
              the
                right and remedy to require the Employee to account for and pay over
                to
                Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or
                other
                benefits derived or received by such party as the result of any
                transactions constituting a breach of the Restrictive
                Covenants.

            

    

    

    (b) Separate
      Enforcement of Provisions.
      If for
      any reason a part of this Agreement is unenforceable, the remainder of the
      Agreement shall be enforced to the fullest extent possible, giving due deference
      to the intent of the parties, as expressed herein.. In particular, if any of
      the
      restrictions imposed on EMPLOYEE hereunder are deemed by a Court of competent
      jurisdiction to contravene NRS 613.200(2) or the guidelines for reasonableness”
of restrictions on EMPLOYEE, as set forth by the Nevada Supreme Court in the
      case styled, Jones
      v. Deeter, 112 Nev. 291, 913 P.2d 1271 (1996),
      then
      the parties expressly request that the Court amend the provisions hereof to
      satisfy the standards for reasonableness” of such restrictions and not deem them
      totally unenforceable.

    8. Assignment.
      This
      Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, by either party without
      the written consent of the other party, except that Company may, without the
      consent of Employee, assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement
      to
      any corporation, firm or other business entity with or into which Company may
      merge or consolidate, or into which Company may sell or transfer all or
      substantially all of its assets or of which fifty percent (50%)
      or
      more
      of the equity investment and voting control is owned, directly or indirectly,
      by, or is under common ownership with, Company. After any such assignment by
      Company, Company shall be discharged from all further liability hereunder and
      such assignee shall thereafter be deemed to be Company for the purposes of
      all
      provisions of this Agreement including this Section 8.

    

    9. Miscellaneous.

    

    9.1 Governing
      Law.

      Agreement is made under and shall be governed by and construed in accordance
      with the laws of the State of Nevada.

    

    9.2 Entire
      Agreement and Amendment.
      This
      Agreement, together with the instruments and agreements contemplated hereby,
      represents the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject
      matter hereof, and all agreements entered into prior hereto with respect to
      the
      subject matter hereof are revoked and superseded by this Agreement, and no
      representations, warranties, inducements or oral agreements have been made
      by
      any of the parties except as expressly set forth herein, or in other
      contemporaneous written agreements. This Agreement may not be changed, modified
      or rescinded except in writing, signed by all parties hereto, and any attempt
      at
      oral modification hereof shall be void and of no effect.

    

    9.3 No
      Waiver.
      No term
      or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall
      there be any estoppel to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, except by
      a
      statement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver
      or estoppel is sought. Any written waiver shall not be deemed a continuing
      waiver unless specifically stated, shall operate only as to the specific term
      or
      condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver or such term or condition
      for
      the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived.

    

    9.4 Severability.
      To the
      extent any provisions of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable,
      it
      shall be considered deleted here from and the remainder of such provision and
      of
      this Agreement shall be unaffected and shall continue in full force and effect.
      It is the intention of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Agreement
      shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws or public
      policies of each state and jurisdiction in which such enforcement is sought,
      but
      that the unenforceability (or the modification to conform with such laws or
      public policies) of any provision hereof shall not render unenforceable or
      impair the remainder of this Agreement, which shall be deemed amended to delete
      or modify, as necessary, the invalid or unenforceable provisions. The parties
      further agree to alter the balance of this Agreement in order to render the
      same
      valid and enforceable.
