During the Term and for a period of two (2) years following the date of termination regardless of the reason (such period following the Term, the “Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not engage in Competition, as defined below, with the Company; provided, that it shall not be a violation of this Section 13 for the Executive to become the registered or beneficial owner of up to five percent (5%) of any class of the capital stock of a corporation registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provided that the Executive does not actively participate in the business of such corporation until such time as this covenant expires.

 

  

Exhibit 10.1 -- Page 11

  

For purposes of this Agreement, “Competition” by the Executive means the Executive’s engaging in, or otherwise directly or indirectly being employed by or acting as a consultant or lender to, or being a director, officer, employee, principal, agent, stockholder, member, owner or partner of, or permitting his name to be used in connection with the activities of any other business or organization which competes, directly or indirectly, with the business of the Company as the same shall be constituted at any time during the Term.

 

(b) Solicitation of Employees

 

.  During the Restricted Period, the Executive agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, for his benefit or for the benefit of any other person, firm or entity, do any of the following:

(i) solicit from any customer doing business with the Company as of the date of termination that is known to Executive, business of the same or of a similar nature to the business of the Company with such customer;

 

(ii) solicit from any potential customer of the Company that is known to the Executive business of the same or of a similar nature to that which has been the subject of a known written or oral bid, offer or proposal by the Company, or of substantial preparation with a view to making such a bid, proposal or offer, within six (6) months prior to such Date of Termination;

 

(iii) solicit the employment or services of any person who was known to be employed by or was a known consultant to the Company upon the Date of Termination, or within six (6) months prior thereto; or

 

(iv) otherwise knowingly interfere with the business or accounts of the Company.

 

The Executive and the Company agree and acknowledge that the Company has a substantial and legitimate interest in protecting the Company’s Confidential Information and goodwill. The Executive and the Company further agree and acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 13 are reasonably necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests and are designed to protect the Company’s Confidential Information and goodwill.

     

The Executive agrees that the scope of the restrictions as to time, geographic area, and scope of activity in this Section 13 are reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company’s legitimate business interests and are not oppressive or injurious to the public interest. The Executive agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section 13 the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief against the Executive’s activities to the extent allowed by law, and the Executive waives any requirement for the posting of any bond by the Company in connection with such action. The Executive further agrees that any breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of Section 13 would cause injury to the Company for which monetary damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy.

  

Exhibit 10.1 -- Page 12

  

(c) Enforceability

 

. The covenants set forth in Sections 13(a) and 13(b) shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Executive against the Company or against any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of such covenants. Executive expressly waives any right to assert inadequacy of consideration as a defense to enforcement of any of the provisions of this Section 13. Executive and the Company hereby acknowledge that it is the desire and intent of Executive and the Company, and Executive and the Company hereby agree, that the terms and provisions of this Section 13 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

 

Publicity. The Executive agrees that the Company may use, and hereby grants the Company the nonexclusive and worldwide right to use, the Executive’s name, picture, likeness, photograph, signature or any other attribute of the Executive’s persona (all of such attributes are hereafter collectively referred to as “Persona”) in any media for any advertising, publicity or other purpose at any time, either during or subsequent to his employment by the Company. The Executive agrees that such use of his Persona will not result in any invasion or violation of any privacy or property rights the Executive may have; and the Executive agrees that he will receive no additional compensation for the use of his Persona. The Executive further agrees that any negatives, prints or other material for printing or reproduction purposes prepared in connection with the use of his Persona by the Company shall be and are the sole property of the Company.

 

14. Confidentiality

 

(a) Covenants

 

. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has been and will continue to be entrusted with trade secrets and proprietary information regarding Inventions (as defined in the Proprietary Information and Invention Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C), the products, processes, know-how, designs, formulas, marketing techniques and future business plans, customer lists and information concerning the identity, needs and desires of actual and potential customers of the Company, its Subsidiaries or its Affiliates, competitive analyses, pricing policies, the substance of agreements with customers and others, marketing or concession arrangements, servicing and training programs and arrangements, developmental or experimental work, improvements, inventions, formulas, ideas, designs, computer programs, data bases, other original works of authorship, financial information or other subject matter pertaining to any business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, consultants or licensees and all documents embodying such confidential information (collectively, “Confidential Information”), all of which derives significant economic value from not being generally known by others outside the Company. In connection with the foregoing, Executive specifically acknowledges (a) that the customer lists of the Company are confidential and not readily known by the Company’s competitors, (b) that such customers are particularly important to the Company’s business, (c) that business relationships between such customers and the Company normally would continue unless interfered with and (d) that solicitation of such customers by Executive, following termination of Executive’s employment under this Agreement, would cause injury to the Company’s business.

 

During the Term and thereafter during the Restricted Peiod, except for the sole benefit of the Company or with the express written consent of the Board of Directors, Executive shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose to or permit to be known by any person, firm, corporation or other form of entity any Confidential Information acquired by Executive during the course of or as an incident to Executive’s employment under this Agreement, or as a result of Executive’s association with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, whether or not relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, the directors of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any corporation, partnership or other entity owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by any of the foregoing, or in which any of the foregoing has a beneficial interest, including the business affairs of each of the foregoing, except as required by law to be disclosed (in which case Executive first shall give the Company written notice of such requirement reasonably in advance of such anticipated required disclosure and shall assist the Company in obtaining a protective order or confidential treatment to the extent requested by the Company). Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, for purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that was in the public domain at the time of disclosure to Executive or that comes lawfully into the public domain without breach of this Agreement.

 

  

Exhibit 10.1 -- Page 13

  

 

(b) Enforceability

 

. The covenants set forth in Section 14(a) shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Executive against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of such covenants. Executive expressly waives any right to assert inadequacy of consideration as a defense to enforcement of any of the provisions of this Section 14. Executive and the Company hereby acknowledge that it is the desire and intent of Executive and the Company, and Executive and the Company hereby agree, that the terms and provisions of this Section 14 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

 

15. Proprietary Information and Invention Assignment Agreement

 

. As a material inducement to the Company to execute and deliver to Executive this Agreement, and as a condition to the enforceability of this Agreement against the Company, concurrently with Executive’s execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, Executive shall execute and deliver to the Company a Proprietary Information and Invention Assignment Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Proprietary Information and Invention Assignment Agreement”).

 

16. Unique Nature of Services; Right to Injunction

 

. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s services under this Agreement are unique and of extraordinary character and that it would be extremely difficult or impossible for the Company to replace such services or determine the damages that would result from the loss of such services. Executive therefore agrees that the Company’s remedies at law are inadequate in the event of any breach of this Agreement by Executive, and Executive consents to the issuance of a temporary restraining order, preliminary and permanent injunction and other appropriate relief to restrain any actual or threatened violation of this Agreement, without limiting any of the other remedies that the Company may have at law or in equity. If Executive violates or threatens to violate any of the provisions of this Agreement, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies that the Company may have under the terms of this Agreement and all applicable law, the Company shall have the right to seek and obtain equitable relief in the form of a temporary restraining order and permanent injunction against Executive and any corporation, business, firm, partnership, limited liability company, association, consortium, group, other form of entity or individual participating in such violation or threatened violation, without the proof of actual damages.

 

17. Consent to Jurisdiction.

 

 Each of the Company and Executive hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of the State of Oregon, Multnomah County, or to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court, Western District of Oregon, in any dispute arising from or relating to this Agreement or Executive’s employment with the Company.  Each party hereby waives the right to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that such party hereto is not subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts. All actions and proceedings permitted to be instituted under this Agreement by Executive or Executive’s successors or assigns arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be commenced only in the courts having a situs in Orange County, California.

 

  

Exhibit 10.1 -- Page 14

  

 

18. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Executive

 

. In order to induce the Company to enter into and perform this Agreement, Executive represents and warrants that Executive is not a party to any contract, agreement or understanding that prevents or prohibits Executive from entering into this Agreement or fully performing all of Executive’s obligations under this Agreement and that Executive’s performance of all of the terms of this Agreement and Executive’s employment by the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information acquired by Executive in confidence or in trust before Executive’s employment by the Company.

 

19. Voluntary Execution and Delivery; Legal Counsel

 

. Executive acknowledges that Executive has read carefully this Agreement and understands its terms and that Executive voluntarily is executing and delivering this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that this Agreement was provided to Executive more than two weeks prior to its execution and delivery by Executive.  Executive acknowledges that the Company’s legal counsel is not legal counsel to Executive and has not advised Executive in any way in connection with or regarding this Agreement. Executive represents, warrants and acknowledges to the Company that Executive has been given and had the opportunity to be represented by independent legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and has consulted with such legal counsel or has waived Executive’s right to do so.

 

20. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Governing Law

 

. The validity, construction, interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement shall be determined and governed by the laws of the State of Oregon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any law or set of laws of the State of Oregon requires or otherwise dictates that the laws of another state or jurisdiction be applied in any proceeding involving this Agreement, then such law or laws of the State of Oregon shall be superseded by this Section 20(a), and the remaining laws of the State of Oregon nonetheless shall be applied in such proceeding.

 

(b) Severability

 

. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is, but for the provisions of this Section 20(b), illegal or void as against public policy, for any reason, then such provision shall automatically be amended or modified to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to make it sufficiently narrow in scope, time and geographic area that such court shall determine it not to be illegal or void as against public policy. If any such provision cannot be amended or modified to the extent provided in the immediately-preceding sentence hereof, then such provision shall be severed from this Agreement. In either event, all other remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement and of each other agreement entered into pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall remain binding on the Company and Executive as if such severed provision had not been contained herein. Any such amendment, modification or severance shall apply only with respect to the operation of this Agreement in the particular jurisdiction in which such determination of illegality or unenforceability is made.
