Business Opportunity is conducted by the Director in accordance
with the standard set forth in Section 6.c. below and that the
Disclosed Business Opportunity is not a Disqualified Business
Opportunity. The Company shall not be prohibited from pursuing any
Business Opportunity with respect to which it is deemed to have
renounced any interest or expectancy as a result of this Section
6.

 

b. Disqualified
Business Opportunity.
During the term of this Agreement and for a period of twelve (12)
months after the Director ceases to be a Director of the Company,
the Director shall not shall not, directly or indirectly, pursue,
become engaged in or have any ownership interest or become
associated with in any Person (as hereinafter defined) which
directly or indirectly pursues or becomes engaged in any Business
Opportunity that (i) is first presented to the Director solely in
his capacity as a director or officer of the Company or its
affiliates or (ii) is identified by the Director solely through the
disclosure of information by or on behalf of the Company or its
affiliates (each such Business Opportunity referred to in clauses
(i) and (ii), a “Disqualified
Business Opportunity”).
The Director acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions and time
limitations with respect to a Business Opportunity and Disqualified
Business Opportunity are reasonable and properly required for the
adequate protection of the business interests of the
Company.

 

c. Standards
for Separate Conduct of Disclosed Business
Opportunity. The
Director may pursue a Disclosed Business Opportunity following the
expiration Business Opportunity Notice Period if such Disclosed
Business Opportunity is developed and pursued solely through the
use of personnel and assets of the Director or jointly with the
personnel and assets of any other “Person(s)”
(as hereinafter defined), provided that such Person(s) does not owe
any fiduciary or other duty to the Company.
“Person”
means an individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability
company, trust, joint venture, unincorporated organization or other
legal or business entity.

7. Termination
for Material Breach. The
Director’s service on the Board may be terminated by the
Company pursuant to the provision of written notice to the Director
under Section 17 below in the event of a material breach by the
Director of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including but
not limited to Section 6 above; 
provided however,
that the Director shall have been given reasonable notice and an
opportunity to promptly cure any such event of a material breach
(unless the event cannot be cured).

 

8. Limitation
of Liability; Right to Indemnification. The
Company shall indemnify the Director in his capacity as director of
the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law
against all debts, judgments, costs, charges or expenses incurred
or sustained by the Director in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding to which the Director may be made a party by reason of
his being or having been a director of the Company. The Company
shall have the right to assume, with legal counsel of its choice,
the defense of Director in any such action, suit or proceeding for
which the Company is providing indemnification to Director. Should
Director determine to employ separate legal counsel in any such
action, suit or proceeding, any costs and expenses of such separate
legal counsel shall be the sole responsibility of Director. If the
Company does not assume the defense of any such action, suit or
other proceeding, the Company shall, upon request of the Director,
promptly advance or pay any amount for costs or expenses
(including, without limitation, the reasonable legal fees and
expenses of counsel retained by Director) incurred by Director in
connection with any such action, suit or proceeding. The Company
shall not be obligated to indemnify Director against any actions
that constitute, in the reasonable discretion of the Board of
Directors, an act of gross negligence or willful misconduct or
contrary to the general indemnification provisions of the Nevada
Revised Statutes or the Company’s certificate of
incorporation or bylaws.

 

9. Remedies.
The Director agrees that any breach of the terms of Section 3 and
Section 6 of this Agreement would result in irreparable injury and
damage to the Company for which the Company would have no adequate
remedy at law; the Director therefore also agrees that in the event
of said breach or any threat of breach, the Company shall be
entitled to an immediate injunction and restraining order to
prevent such breach and/or threatened breach and/or continued
breach by the Director and/or any and all entities acting for
and/or with the Director, without having to prove damages or paying
a bond, in addition to any other remedies to which the Company may
be entitled at law or in equity. The terms of this paragraph shall
not prevent the Company from pursuing any other available remedies
for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including, but not
limited to, the recovery of damages from the Director. The Director
acknowledges that the Company would not have entered into this
Agreement had the Director not agreed to the provisions of this
Section 8.

 

10. Amendments
and Waiver. No
supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement will be
binding unless executed in writing by both parties. No waiver of
any provision of this Agreement on a particular occasion will be
deemed or will constitute a waiver of that provision on a
subsequent occasion or a waiver of any other provision of this
Agreement.
