    (a)   during the Employment Period and as a
part of his employment, the Employee will be afforded access to Confidential
Information;

    

    (b)   public disclosure of such Confidential
Information could have an adverse effect on the Corporation and its business;
and

    

    (c)   the provisions of this Section 8 are
reasonable and necessary to prevent the improper use or disclosure of
Confidential Information.

    9.     GENERAL
PROVISIONS

    

    9.1    Injunctive Relief
and Additional Remedy.

    

    (a)   The Employee acknowledges that the
injury that would be suffered by the Corporation as a result of a breach of the
provisions of Section 8 of this Agreement would be irreparable and that an award
of monetary damages to the Corporation for such a breach would be an inadequate
remedy. Consequently, the Corporation will have the right, in addition to any
other rights and remedies, including the recovery of money damages, it may have,
to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or
otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this Agreement, and the
Corporation will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such
relief. Without limiting the Corporation's rights under this Section 9, or any
other remedies of the Corporation, if the Employee breaches any of the
provisions of Section 8, the Corporation will have the right to cease making any
payments otherwise due to the Employee under this Agreement.

    

    (b)   The Employee's covenants in Section 8
are independent covenants and the existence of any claim by the Employee against
the Corporation under this Agreement or otherwise, or against the Buyer, will
not excuse the Employee's breach of any covenant in Section
8.

    

    (c)   If the Employee's employment hereunder
expires or is terminated, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect
as is necessary or appropriate to enforce the covenants and agreements of the
Employee in Section 8; provided that the Corporation has fulfilled all
obligations to Employee hereunder upon such termination.

    

    9.2     Waiver. The rights and remedies of the parties
to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor
any delay by either party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under
this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and
no single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will
preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the
exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law:

     

    (a)   no claim or right arising out of this
Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or
renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other
party;

    

    (b)   no waiver that may be given by a party
will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given;
and

    

    (c)   no notice to or demand on one party
will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of
the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or
demand as provided in this Agreement.

    

    9.3     Binding Effect;
Delegation of Duties Prohibited. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the parties hereto and their respective
successors, assigns, heirs, and legal representatives, including any entity with
which the Corporation may merge or consolidate or to which all or substantially
all of its assets may be transferred. The duties and covenants of the Employee
under this Agreement, being personal, may not be delegated.

    

    9.4     Notices. All notices, consents, waivers, and
other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed
to have been duly given when:

confirmation of receipt), provided that a copy is mailed by registered mail,
