trust and confidence. No information of the Company may be disclosed by the

incurred by the Executive in connection therewith.

    

    (h)           Equitable
Relief and Other Remedies.  The Executive acknowledges and agrees that

fact, the Executive agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened or
attempted breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without
posting any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of
specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent
injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available. In
addition, without limiting the Company’s remedies for any breach of any
restriction on the Executive set forth in this Section 9, except as required by

6(d) hereof if the Executive has breached the covenants applicable to the
Executive contained in this Section 9, the Executive will immediately return to
the Company any such payments previously received under Section 6(d) upon such a
breach, and, in the event of such breach, the Company will have no obligation to
pay any of the amounts that remain payable by the Company under Section
6(d).

    

    (i)           Liability.                      Notwithstanding
the provisions in this Section 9 the Executive shall not be liable for any
mistakes of fact, errors of judgment, for losses sustained by the Company or any
subsidiary or for any acts or omissions of any kind, unless caused by the
negligence or willful or intentional misconduct of the Executive or any person
or entity acting for or on behalf of the Executive.

    

    (j)           Survival
of Provisions.  The obligations contained in this Section 9 shall
survive in accordance with their terms the termination or expiration of the
Executive's employment with the Company and shall be fully enforceable
thereafter.
