        The
Executive hereby agrees that the Executive will not, during the term of the Executive's employment with the Corporation and for two years from the date such employment terminates, be

not limited to businesses with power systems, memory systems, electronic card assemblies, OEM contract manufacturing competing with those produced by (or services provided by) the Corporation. During
the same time period, the Executive will not carry on or be engaged in or concerned with or interested in, or advise, lend money to, guarantee the debts or obligations of, or permit the Executive's
name or any part thereof to be used or employed by or associated with, any person or persons, firm association, syndicate, company or corporation in any business within Canada or the

17.   Severability  

        If
any provision of the Agreement, including the breadth or scope of such provision, shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in

7

 

provisions,
or part thereof, of this Agreement and such remaining provisions, or part thereof, shall remain enforceable and binding. 

18.   Enforceability  

        The Executive hereby confirms and agrees that the covenants and restrictions pertaining to the Executive contained in this Agreement, including, without

any breach by the Executive of the Executive's obligations under any such covenant or restriction. Accordingly, the Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that damages would be an inadequate remedy
at law in connection with any such breach and that the Corporation shall therefore be entitled, in lieu of any action for damages, temporary and permanent injunctive relief enjoining and restraining
the Executive from any such breach.

shall not initiate any injunctive proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction or any arbitration proceeding pursuant to Section 18 to prevent the Executive from enforcing his right
to receive such amounts, and should the Corporation initiate any proceeding disputing the Executive's entitlement to such amounts, the Corporation agrees to continue to provide such amounts to the

prospective clients, customers, suppliers and employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Trade Secrets"), the disclosure of any of which to competitors of the Corporation or to

	the
right to maintain the confidentiality of the Trade Secrets, the right to preserve the goodwill of the Corporation and the right to the benefit of any relationships
that have developed between the Executive and the customers, clients and suppliers of the Corporation by virtue of the Executive's employment with the Corporation constitute proprietary rights of the
Corporation, that the Corporation is entitled to protect.

	In
acknowledgment of the matters set out in (a) above, and in consideration of the payments to be received by the Executive pursuant to this Agreement, the Executive hereby
agrees that the Executive will not, during the term of the Executive's employment with the Corporation and for two years from either the Date of Termination or the Executive's resignation of the

provided that such Trade Secrets shall be deemed not to include information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Executive;

	(ii)
	be
a party to or abet any solicitation of customers, clients, or suppliers of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or associates, to transfer business from the

corporation in any business that is involved in any similar business in which the Corporation is involved during the course of the Executive's employment 

	(c)
	If
any court determines that any provision contained in Section 13 including, without limitation, a restrictive covenant or any part thereof is unenforceable because of the
duration or geographical scope of the provision or for any other reason, the duration or scope of the provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that the provision becomes enforceable and, in
its reduced form, the provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced;

	(d)
	The
Executive acknowledges that the Executive's employment by the Corporation and all compensation and benefits and potential compensation and benefits to the Executive from such
employment were and will be conferred by the Corporation upon the Executive in part because and on condition of the Executive's willingness to commit the Executive's best efforts and loyalty to the
Corporation, including protecting the Corporation's right to have its Trade Secrets protected from non-disclosure by the Executive and abiding by the confidentiality,
non-competition and other provisions herein. The Executive understands the Executive's duties and obligations as set forth in Section 13 and agrees that such duties and
obligations would not unduly restrict or curtail the Executive's legitimate efforts to earn a livelihood following any termination of the Executive's employment with the Corporation. The Executive
agrees that the restrictions contained in Section 13 are reasonable and valid and all defences to the strict enforcement thereof by the Corporation are waived by the Executive. The Executive
further acknowledges that irreparable damage would result to the Corporation if the provisions of Sections 13(b)(i) to (iii) are not specifically enforced, and agrees that the
Corporation shall be entitled to any appropriate legal, equitable, or other remedy, including injunctive relief, in respect of any failure or continuing failure to comply with the provisions of
Sections 13(b)(i) to (iii);

	(e)
	The
preceding covenants do not prohibit investment, up to a maximum of five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares, in a corporation whose shares are listed on a recognized
stock exchange and which carries on a business similar to the Business of the Corporation. 

14.   Return of Materials  

        All files, forms, brochures, books, materials, written correspondence, memoranda, documents, manuals, computer disks, software products and lists (including lists
of customers, suppliers, products and prices) pertaining to the business of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries and associates that may come into the possession or control of the Executive
shall at all times remain the property of the Corporation or such subsidiary or associate, as the case may be. On termination of the Executive's employment for any reason, the Executive agrees to
deliver promptly to the Corporation all such property in the possession of the Executive or directly or indirectly under the control of the Executive. The Executive agrees not to make for the
Executive's personal or business use or that of any other party, reproductions or copies of any such property or other property of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or associates. 

15.   Duty to Mitigate  

        The
Executive shall not be subject to any duty or obligation to seek alternate employment or other sources of income or benefits, or to mitigate the Executive's damages, or to any
similar duty or obligation and any compensation earned by the Executive after the Date of Termination shall not be deducted from any payments to be made to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement
following or as a result of: (a) voluntary termination by the Executive of the Executive's employment for Good Reason or Good Reason during the Change in Control Period; or,
(b) termination of the employment of the Executive by the Corporation other than for Cause.

16.   Further Assurances  

        Each of the Corporation and the Executive agrees to execute and deliver all such documents and to do all such acts and things as the other party may reasonably
request and as may be lawful and within its powers to do or to cause to be done in order to carry out and/or implement the provisions or intent of this Agreement, including, without limitation,
seeking all such governmental, regulatory and other third party approvals as may be necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Corporation agrees to execute and
deliver all such documents and to do all such acts and things as the Executive may reasonably request and as may be lawful and within the power of the Corporation to do or cause to be done in order to
minimize any tax consequences to the Executive or his estate or his legal personal representatives in respect of the payment or performance by the Corporation of the obligations of the Corporation
upon or in respect of payments or actions required to be made or taken by or on behalf of the Corporation in the event of termination of the Executive's employment hereunder; provided that the
Corporation shall in no way be prejudiced thereby. 

17.   Governing Law  

        The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein. 

18.   Arbitration Clause  

        (a)  With
the exception of Article 13, where there is any dispute as to any provision of this Agreement and the Executive and the Corporation are unable to come to a
mutual agreement within a period of 10 days from the date on which one party advises the other party, in writing, of the dispute, within 10 days after the expiry
of such period, either party may give written notice of the issue on which a mutual decision has not been made to an arbitrator selected from (c) below, with a copy of the notice to the other
party. 

        Upon
receipt of such notice, the arbitrator will contact each of the parties and attempt to resolve the matter within 5 days of receipt of the notice, failing which the arbitrator
shall schedule a hearing to commence within 90 days thereafter, that hearing to conclude and the decision to be rendered within 120 days (or such later time as agreed upon
between the parties) thereafter. 

        It
is understood and agreed the arbitrator shall have the sole discretion to establish a procedure for the conduct of the arbitration, provided only that such procedure shall give to
each party an opportunity to state and argue their respective positions, either in writing or orally in the presence of the arbitrator and each other party and whether with or without reply or
rejoinder. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding. 

        Any
arbitration pursuant to this clause shall be in accordance with the Arbitrations Act (Ontario). 

        (b)  It
is understood that the Executive and the Corporation would prefer to avoid litigation due to a possible breach of Article 13, upon the acceptance of a new
position by the Executive. As a result, the parties agree that where the Executive is considering a new position, particularly following termination of employment, the Executive may seek the prior
agreement of the Corporation that such new position is not with a competitor of the Corporation. Where there is a disagreement as to whether this new position is with a competitor of the Corporation
(and the Executive has not accepted any offer and commenced employment in respect thereof), the parties agree to have this issue finally determined on an expedited basis by an agreed upon
arbitrator as set out in (c) below. The process and authority of the arbitrator shall be as described above, except that in this case only the hearing must be concluded and the decision
rendered within 30 days of the arbitrator receiving notice of the dispute. 

        (c)  For
the purpose of this Agreement, the parties agree that any one of the following can be selected as the arbitrator: Mr. Justice George Adams, William Kaplan,
Maureen K. Saltman or Daniel J. Baum, or any other arbitrator the parties mutually agree upon should none of these arbitrators be available within the timelines set out herein.

19.   Severability  

        With the exception of Section 13, if any provision of the Agreement, including the breadth or scope of such provision, shall be held by an arbitrator
pursuant to Section 18 to be invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining
provisions, or part thereof, of this Agreement and such remaining provisions, or part thereof, shall remain enforceable and binding. 

20.   Representations and Warranties  

        The Executive represents and warrants to the Corporation that the execution and performance of this Agreement will not result in or constitute a default, breach,
or violation, or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would be a default, breach, or violation, of any understanding, agreement or commitment, written or oral, express or implied, to
which the Executive is a party or by which the Executive or the Executive's property is bound. The Executive shall defend, indemnify and hold the Corporation harmless from any liability, expense or
claim (including solicitor's fees incurred in respect thereof) by any person in any way arising out of, relating to, or in connection with any incorrectness or breach of the representations and
warranties in this Section 20. 

21.   Rights and Waivers  

        All rights and remedies of the parties are separate and cumulative, and none of them, whether exercised or not, shall be deemed to be to the exclusion of any
other rights or remedies or shall be deemed to limit or prejudice any other legal or equitable rights or remedies which either of the parties may have. 

22.   Waiver  

        Any purported waiver of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement is not effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be
bound by the waiver. No waiver shall be inferred from or implied by any failure to act or delay in acting by a party in respect of any default, breach or non-observance or by anything done
or omitted to be done by the other party. The waiver by a party of any default, breach or non-compliance under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of that party's rights under
this Agreement in respect of any continuing or subsequent default, breach or non-observance (whether of the same or any other nature). 

23.   Time of Essence  

        Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement in all respects. 

24.   Headings  

        The division of this Agreement into Sections and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or
interpretation of this Agreement. 

25.   Full Satisfaction  

        The terms set out in this Agreement, provided that such terms are satisfied by the Corporation, are in lieu of (and not in addition to) and in full
satisfaction of any and all other claims or entitlements which the Executive has or may have upon the termination of the Executive's employment and the compliance by the Corporation with these terms
will effect a full and complete release of the Corporation and its parent and their respective affiliates, associates, subsidiaries and related companies from any and all claims which the Executive
may have for whatever reason or cause in connection with the Executive's employment and the termination of it, other than those obligations specifically set out in this Agreement. In agreeing to the
terms set out in this Agreement, the Executive specifically agrees to execute a formal release document to that effect and will deliver upon request appropriate resignations from all offices and
positions with the Corporation and its parent and their respective affiliated, associated subsidiary or affiliated companies if, as and when requested by the Corporation upon termination of the
Executive's employment within the circumstances contemplated by this Agreement.

26.   Successors; Binding Agreement  

        The Corporation will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Corporation to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement
and shall entitle the Executive to compensation from the Corporation in the same amount and on the same terms as the Executive would be entitled hereunder if the Executive were terminated in
circumstances giving rise to the payment of benefits pursuant to Section 12 hereof except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes
effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. The foregoing shall not in any way limit the rights of the Executive hereunder if such succession constitutes a Change in Control. As used in this
Agreement, "Corporation" shall mean the Corporation as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this
paragraph or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of law. 

27.   No Assignment  

        The Executive may not assign, pledge or encumber the Executive's interest in this Agreement nor assign any of the rights or duties of the Executive under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the Corporation. 

28.   Statutory Deductions and Withholdings  

        All payments provided to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement are subject to necessary statutory deductions and withholdings. 

29.   Successors  

        This Agreement shall be binding on and enure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Corporation and the heirs, executors, personal legal
representatives and permitted assigns of the Executive. 

30.   Entire Agreement  

        This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Executive and the Corporation with respect to employment of the Executive and supersedes any and all prior
understandings, written or oral. This Agreement may not be amended, waived, discharged or terminated orally but only by an instrument in writing executed by both parties.

32.   Legal Advice  

        The Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Corporation and acknowledges and agrees that the Executive had the opportunity to seek and was not prevented
nor discouraged by the Corporation from seeking independent legal advice prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and that, in the event that the Executive did not avail himself or
herself of that opportunity prior to signing this Agreement, the Executive did so voluntarily without any undue pressure and agrees that the Executive's failure to obtain independent legal advice
shall not be used by the Executive as a defence to the enforcement of the Executive's obligations under this Agreement. The Corporation agrees to reimburse the Executive for the reasonable legal fees
incurred by the Executive in obtaining such legal advice.
