Agreement.                     Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company's commitment to providing Employee with unique skill development and training is a separate form of consideration supporting the restrictive covenants in this Agreement.

 

8.          Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information.

 

	
  

	
(a)

	
The Employee acknowledges that as a result of Employee's employment by the Company, the Employee, both during and after the Term, will obtain secret and confidential information concerning the business of the Company and its affiliates, including, without limitation, financial information, trade secrets, information concerning the operations, sales, personnel, suppliers, customers, costs, profits and pricing policies, "know how" and certain business methodologies (the "Confidential Information").

 

8 of 17

  

  

  

 

	
(b)  

	
During the Term and thereafter, the Employee shall exercise all due and diligent precautions to protect the integrity of the customer lists, mailing lists and sources thereof, statistical data and compilations, agreements, contracts, manuals, memoranda, notes, records, reports or other documents and any and all other materials embodying any Confidential Information (the "Confidential Materials") and, upon the Company's request in writing, Employee shall immediately return to the Company all such Confidential Materials (and copies thereof) then in Employee's possession or control.

 

	
(c)  

	
Employee shall not at any time, either during the Term of this Agreement or thereafter, divulge to any person or entity any Confidential Information or deliver or permit any person or entity to obtain any Confidential Materials except (i) when required in the course of performing Employee's duties hereunder, (ii) with the Company's express written consent, (iii) where required to be disclosed by court order, subpoena or other government process or (iv) the Employee shall have no responsibility for the divulgence of any information which is in the public domain. If the Employee shall be required to make disclosure pursuant to the provisions of clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Employee promptly, but in no event more than 48 hours after learning of such subpoena, court order or other governmental process, shall notify, by personal delivery or by electronic means, confirmed by mail, the Company and, at the Company's expense, Employee shall (x) take all reasonably necessary steps required by the Company to defend against the enforcement of such subpoena, court order or other government process and (y) permit the Company to intervene and participate with counsel of its choice in any proceeding relating to the enforcement thereof.

 

	
(d)  

	
Upon termination of Employee's employment with the Company, the Employee shall promptly deliver to the Company all Confidential Materials relating to the Company and its affiliates, which Employee may then possess or have under Employee's control; provided, however, that Employee shall be entitled to retain copies of such documents reasonably necessary to document Employee's financial relationship (both past and future) with the Company.

 

	
(e)  

	
The Employee acknowledges that (i) any breach of the provisions of these Sections 7 and 8 may cause substantial and irreparable harm to the Company for which the Company would have no adequate remedy at law and (ii) the provisions of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the business of the Company and its affiliates.

 

9.           Remedies.

 

	
  

	
(a)

	
If Employee commits a breach, or threatens to commit a breach, of any of the provisions of Sections 7 or 8, the Company shall have the right and remedy:

 

	
(i)  

	
to have the provisions of this Agreement specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction or through arbitration as provided herein; and

 

	
(ii)  

	
to require Employee to account for and to pay over the Company all damages suffered by the Company (including consequential and

 

9 of 17

 

  

  

  

 

incidental damages) as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of any of the provisions of Sections 7 and 8, and Employee hereby agrees

 

to account for and pay over such damages to the Company;

 

	
(b)  

	
The Employee acknowledges that the services being rendered hereunder to the Company are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and that any such breach or threatened breach may cause substantial and irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy to the Company. In any equitable proceeding to enforce the provisions hereof, the Company shall not have to prove irreparable harm. (However, in a suit for damages Company shall be required to prove the amount of damages actually sustained.)

 

	
(c)  

	
Each of the rights and remedies enumerated in Section 9(a) shall be independent of the other, and shall be severally enforceable, and such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of any other rights and remedies available to the Company under law or equity.

 

	
(d)  

	
If any provision of Section 7 or 8 is held to be unenforceable because of the scope, duration or area of its applicability, the court making such deteimination shall have the power to modify such scope, duration, or area, or all of them, and such provision or provisions shall then be enforceable in such modified form.

 

	
(e)  

	
The Company and Employee agree that any dispute or controversy arising between any of the parties to this Agreement, or any person or entity in privity therewith, out of the transactions effected and relationships created in connection herewith, including any dispute or controversy involving the formation, terms or construction of this Agreement, regardless of kind or character, will be resolved through binding arbitration held in Bexar County, Texas. The only disputes not subject to mandatory, binding arbitration are requests for injunctive relief. With respect to the arbitration of any dispute or controversy, each party understands that:

 

	
(i)  

	
arbitration is final and binding on the parties;

 

	
(ii)  

	
each party is waiving its right to seek certain remedies in court, including to right to a jury trial;

 

	
(iii)  

	
discovery in arbitration is different and more limited than discovery in litigation; and

 

	
(iv)  

	
an arbitrator's award need not include factual findings or legal reasoning, and any party's right to appeal or to seek modification of a ruling by the arbitrator is strictly limited.

 

Each party to this Agreement will submit any dispute or controversy to arbitration before the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") within five days after receiving a written request to do so from the other party. If any party fails to submit a dispute or controversy to arbitration as requested, then the requesting party may commence the arbitration proceeding. The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the proceeding and all issues raised by this Agreement to be arbitrated. Each party to this Agreement will be bound by the

 

10 of 17

 

  

  

  

 

determination of any arbitrator or arbitration panel impaneled by the AAA to adjudicate the dispute. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Any party to this Agreement may bring an action including a summary or expedited proceeding, to counsel arbitration of any such dispute or controversy in a court of competent jurisdiction and, further, may seek provision or ancillary remedies, including temporary or injunctive relief in connection with such dispute or controversy in a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that the dispute or controversy is ultimately resolved through binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 10(e). If any party institutes legal proceedings in an effort to resist arbitration and is unsuccessful in doing so, the prevailing party is entitled to recover, from the losing party, its legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the defense of such legal proceedings.

 

10.           Indemnification.

 

	
  

	
(a)

	
To the full extent allowed by law, the Company shall hold harmless and indemnify the Employee, his executors, administrators or assigns, against any and all judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually incurred by the Employee (net of any related insurance proceeds or other amounts received by the Employee or paid by or on behalf of the Company on the Employee's behalf in compensation of such judgments, penalties, fines, settlements or expenses) in connection with any threatened, actual or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, arbitral, administrative or investigative, or any appeal in such action, suit or proceeding, to which the Employee was, is or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent (a "Proceeding"), because such person is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary (an "Affiliate Employee") of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (each, a "Company Affiliate"). Upon authorization of indemnification of the Employee by the Board of Directors in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Nevada General Corporation Law (the "NGCL"), the Employee shall be presumed to be entitled to such indemnification under this Agreement upon submission of a Claim (as hereinafter defined). Thereafter, the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome the presumption that the Employee is so entitled. Such presumption shall only be overcome by a judgment or other final adjudication, after all appeals and all time for appeals have expired ("Final Determination"), adverse to the Employee establishing that such indemnification is not permitted hereunder or by law. An actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Employee has not met the applicable standard of conduct for indemnification shall not be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the Employee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. The purchase, establishment or maintenance of any Indemnification Arrangement shall not in any way diminish, restrict, limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Company or of the Employee under this Agreement except as expressly provided herein, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the Employee

 

11 of 17

 

  

  

  

 

shall not in any way diminish, restrict, limit or affect the Employee's right to indemnification from the Company or any other party or parties under any other indemnification arrangement, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or the NGCL.

 

	
(b)  

	
Subject only to the provisions of this Section 10(b), as long as the Employee shall continue to serve as an officer of the Company and, thereafter, as long as the Employee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding by reason of the fact that the Employee was or is an officer of the Company, the Company shall, unless no such policies are available in any market, purchase and maintain in effect for the benefit of the Employee one or more valid, binding and enforceable policies (the "Insurance Policies") of directors' and officers' liability insurance ("D&O Insurance") providing adequate liability coverage for the Employee's acts as an officer of the Company. The Company shall promptly notify the Employee of any lapse, amendment or failure to renew said policy or policies or any provision thereof relating to the extent or nature of coverage provided thereunder. In the event the Company does not purchase and maintain in effect said policy or policies of D&O Insurance pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10(b), the Company shall, to the full extent permitted by law, in addition to and not in limitation of the other rights granted the Employee under this Agreement, hold harmless and indemnify the Employee to the full extent of coverage which would otherwise have been provided for the benefit of the Employee pursuant to the Insurance Policies.

 

	
(c)  

	
The Employee shall have the right to receive from the Company on demand, or at his option to have the Company pay promptly on his behalf, in advance of a Final Determination of a Proceeding all expenses payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as corresponding amounts are expended or incurred by the Employee in connection with such Proceeding or otherwise expended or incurred by the Employee (such amounts so expended or incurred being referred to as "Advanced Amounts"). In making any claim for payment by the Company of any expenses, including any Advanced Amount, pursuant to this Agreement, the Employee shall submit to the Company a written request for payment (a "Claim"), which includes a schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the dollar amount expended (or incurred or expected to be expended or incurred). Each item on such schedule shall be supported by the bill, agreement or other documentation relating thereto, a copy of which shall be appended to the schedule as an exhibit.

 

Where the Employee is requesting Advanced Amounts, the Employee must also provide (i) written affirmation of such Employee's good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct required by law for indemnification, and (ii) a written undertaking to repay such Advanced Amounts if a Final Determination is made that the Employee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 

	
(d)  

	
The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment in connection with any claim made against the Employee for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by the Employee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of any state statutory law or common law.

 

12 of 17

 

  

  

  

 

	
(e)  

	
All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period the Employee is an employee of the Company and shall continue thereafter so long as the Employee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding by reason of the fact that the Employee was an officer of the Company.

 

	
(f)  

	
Promptly after receipt by the Employee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding, the Employee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof, but failure to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to the Employee. With respect to any such Proceeding:

 

	
(i)  

	
The Company shall be entitled to participate therein at its own expense;

 

	
(ii)  

	
Except with prior written consent of the Employee, the Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding; and

 

	
(iii)  

	
The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on the Employee without the Employee's prior written consent. The Employee shall not settle any Proceeding with respect to which the Employee has received indemnified amounts or Advanced Amounts without the Company's prior written consent, nor will the Employee unreasonably withhold consent to any proposed settlement.

 

11.           Notice.

 

Any notice required hereunder shall (a) be delivered by hand or (b) sent by registered or certified mail addressed to the other party hereto at its address set forth above for Company and on Item 1 of Schedule 1 for Employee or at such other address as notice thereof shall have been given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11. Any such notice shall become effective (i) if mailed, on the date indicated on the receipt or if not accepted, the date indicated that delivery was attempted, and (ii) in the case of delivery by hand, upon delivery or attempted delivery as shown on the records of the deliveries.

 

12.           Entire Agreement; Amendments.

 

This Agreement supersedes any prior agreements or understandings, oral or written, between the parties hereto and represents their entire understanding and agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement can be amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written instrument making specific reference to this Agreement which is executed by both parties to this Agreement. Any waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a continuing waiver or consent to any subsequent breach by any party hereto.

 

13.           Severability.

 

In the event of the invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more provisions of this Agreement, such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or

 

13 of 17

 

  

  

  

 

enforceability of the other provisions hereof and such other provisions shall be deemed to remain in full force and effect.

 

14.            Assignment: Binding Effect.

 

This Agreement is not assignable by Employee or the Company without the prior written consent of the other party. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Employee and the Company and their successors and assigns. It is agreed that in the event of the termination under this Agreement for any reason, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all salary and benefits shall cease as of the date of termination provided that all accrued salary, bonus and expenses shall be paid to Employee or Employee's successors, assigns, estate or legal representative as the case may be.

 

15.            Section Headings.

 

The Section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

 

16.            Governing Law: Venue.

 

This Agreement shall be construed and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas. The parties hereto agree that any actions or proceedings instituted to enforce rights hereunder shall be initiated in Bexar County, Texas.

 

17.            Execution in Counterparts.

 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instruments.

 

  

  

  

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day and year first above written.
