Exhibit 10.5    
    

 
 

KRONA ACQUISITION CORPORATION.
  
    PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND
  INVENTIONS ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT    
    

        In consideration of my employment, or continued employment, with Krona Acquisition Corporation (the "Company"),
the Company's promise to disclose to me its confidential and proprietary information (as defined below), the compensation now and hereafter paid to me, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I hereby agree with the Company as follows: 

        1.    Recognition of Company's Rights; Nondisclosure.    At all times
during the term of my employment and thereafter, I will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon, or publish any of the Company's Proprietary Information (defined below),
except as such disclosure, use, or publication may be required in connection with my work for the Company, or unless the President or the Board of Directors of the Company expressly authorizes such in
writing. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that all Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company and
its assigns and that the Company and its assigns shall be the sole owner of all patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, and all other rights throughout the world (collectively,
"Proprietary Rights") in connection therewith. 

        The
term "Proprietary Information" shall mean trade secrets, confidential knowledge, data, or any other proprietary information of, or
acquired by, the Company and each of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies. By way of illustration but not limitation, "Proprietary Information"
includes (a) this Agreement; (b) inventions, trade secrets, ideas, processes, formulas, data, lists, programs, other works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries,
developments, designs, and techniques relating to the business or proposed business of the Company and that were learned or discovered by me during the term of my employment with the Company, except
as expressly permitted by the Board of Directors of the Company during the term of my employment, at the time of my termination, or subsequent to my termination (hereinafter, included Proprietary
Information is collectively referred to as "Inventions"); (c) information regarding plans for research, development, new products and services,
marketing and selling, business plans, budgets and unpublished financial statements, licenses, prices and costs, suppliers, customer lists and customers that were learned or discovered by me during
the term of my employment with the Company, except as expressly permitted by the Board of Directors of the
Company during the term of my employment, at the time of my termination, or subsequent to my termination; and (d) information regarding the skills and compensation of other employees of the
Company. The Company hereby promises to disclose to me its confidential and Proprietary Information. 

        2.    Third Party Information.    I understand, in addition, that the
Company may from time to time receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information ("Third Party Information") subject to a duty on the
Company's part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the term of my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information
in the strictest confidence and will not disclose (to anyone other than Company personnel who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company) or use, except in connection
with my work for the Company, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by an executive officer of the Company in writing. 

        3.    Assignment of Inventions.    

        3.1   I
hereby assign to the Company all my right, title, and interest in and to any and all Inventions (and all Proprietary Rights with respect thereto), whether or not
patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, that were made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my
employment with the Company. 

 

        3.2   I
acknowledge that all original works of authorship that are made by me (solely or jointly with others) during the term of my employment with the Company and that are
within the scope of my employment and protectable by copyright are "works made for hire," as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 101). Inventions assigned
to the Company by this paragraph 3 are hereinafter referred to as "Company Inventions." 

        4.    Enforcement of Proprietary Rights.    I will assist the Company
in every proper way to obtain and from time to time enforce United States and foreign Proprietary Rights relating to Company Inventions in any and all countries. To that end I will execute, verify,
and deliver such documents and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Company may reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing,
sustaining, and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, I will execute, verify, and deliver assignments of such Proprietary Rights to the Company or its designee. My
obligation to assist the Company with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Company Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the
termination of my employment, but the Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for the time actually spent by me at the Company's request on such assistance. 

        In
the event the Company is unable for any reason, after reasonable effort, to secure my signature on any document needed in connection with the actions specified in the preceding
paragraph, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as my agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in my behalf to execute, verify, and file
any such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the preceding paragraph thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me. I hereby waive and
quitclaim to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that I now or may hereafter have for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to the Company. 

        5.    Obligation to Keep Company Informed.    During the period of my
employment, I will promptly disclose to the Company fully and in writing and will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of the Company any and all Inventions. In addition, I will disclose all
patent applications filed by me during the three (3) years after termination of my employment with the Company. 

        6.    Prior Inventions.    Inventions, if any, patented or unpatented,
that I made prior to the commencement of my employment with the Company are excluded from the scope of this Agreement. To preclude any possible uncertainty, I have set forth on  Exhibit A attached
hereto a complete list of all Inventions that I have, alone or jointly with others, conceived, developed, or reduced to
practice or caused to be conceived, developed, or reduced to practice prior to commencement of my employment with the Company, that I consider to be my property or the property of third parties and
that I wish to have excluded from the scope of this Agreement. If disclosure of any such Invention on Exhibit A would cause me to violate any
prior confidentiality Agreement, I understand that I am not to list such Inventions in Exhibit A but am to inform the Company that all Inventions
have not been listed for that reason. 

        7.    Other Activities; Non-Competition;
Non-Solicitation.    

        7.1   During
the term of my employment with the Company, I will not, directly or indirectly, participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing or control of, or
be employed by or consult for or otherwise render services to, any person, corporation, firm, or other entity that competes in the State of Texas, or in any other state in the United States, or in any
country in the world with the Company in the conduct of the business of the Company as conducted or which are contemplated within the Company's strategic planning efforts, nor shall I engage in any
other activities that conflict with my obligations to the Company. 

        7.2   In
consideration of the promises hereof and in further consideration of the Company's promise to disclose to me confidential and proprietary information and trade
secrets of the Company and the Company's promise to provide me with prompt specialized training, and the 

2

 

experience
I will gain throughout my employment with the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I hereby agree that for a
period of one (1) year after the date that my employment with the Company is terminated (the "Non-compete Restriction Period"), for any reason, I will not, directly or indirectly,
whether as officer, director, employee, stockholder agent, partner, consultant, contractor or otherwise within the State of Texas, or in any other State of the United States, or in any other country
in the world where the Company engages in business, or proposes to engage in business, work for, engage in, or have any interest in or connection with: (1) any business engaged in the
development of search engine technology or other entity which competes with the Company's or affiliates' search engine development business or (2) any other business in which the Company has a
protected competitive interest that competes with the Company or its affiliates, or (3) businesses which are contemplated within the Company's strategic planning efforts as of the date of your
separation from employment. In addition, I will not, directly or indirectly, engage in any competing activities for any entity during the Non-compete Restriction Period. This competition
is not applicable to ownership of not more than five (5) percent of any class of securities of any corporation that is traded on a national securities exchange or through NASDAQ. I specifically
acknowledge and agree that the terms of this provision are reasonable in every respect. In particular, because of the competitive and specialized nature of the Company's business, including without
limitation the changing search engine technology environment, I acknowledge and agree that it is reasonable to include the entire United States and any country in the world where the Company engages
in business as the geographic limitation of this provision. If a court holds that any portion of this paragraph is unenforceable, the maximum restrictions of time, scope of activities, and geographic
area reasonable under the circumstances will be substituted for any such restrictions held unenforceable. 

        7.3   During
the term of my employment and for a period of one (1) year after my employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, I will not, directly or
indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, partnership, corporation, or business entity of any type, hire, solicit, divert, take away, hire away, assist or in any way encourage
any current employee or consultant of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to terminate his or her employment relationship or consulting relationship with the Company or subsidiary nor will I
hire or solicit the employment services of any former employee of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company whose employment has been terminated for less than six (6) months. I specifically
acknowledge and agree that the terms of this provision are reasonable in every respect. If a court holds that any portion of this paragraph is unenforceable, the maximum restrictions of time and scope
of activities reasonable under the circumstances will be substituted for any such restriction held unenforceable. 

        7.4   For
a period of one (1) year after my employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, I will not, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of
any other person, firm, partnership, corporation, or business entity of any type, solicit, contact, call upon, communicate with, or attempt to communicate with, any Customer of the Company if such
solicitation, contact, call or communication could be deemed by the Company to be competitive with the business of the Company as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. For purposes of this
section, "Customer" shall mean any company or business entity that the Company sells goods or services to and that I had contact with or performed
services for during the last year of my employment with the Company. I specifically acknowledge and agree that the terms of this provision are reasonable in every respect. If a court holds that any
portion of this paragraph is unenforceable, the maximum restrictions of time and scope of activities reasonable under the circumstances will be substituted for any such restriction held unenforceable

        7.5   In
consideration of the promises hereof and in further consideration of the Company's promise to disclose to me confidential and proprietary information and trade
secrets of the Company and the Company's promise to provide me with immediate specialized training, and the experience I will gain throughout my employment with the Company, and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I hereby agree that in the event that I am employed by, consult for or otherwise render services to, any person,
corporation, firm, or other entity that is a competitor of the Company, in the same or comparable position as my position in the Company, I agree that my services for that competitor would result in
the inevitable disclosure of the Company's Proprietary Information, proprietary information and/or trade-secrets. In addition, I agree to provide the Company with at least five (5) days prior
written notice before I begin any employment with any third party within one (1) year after the termination of my employment with the Company. 

        8.    No Improper Use of Materials.    I understand that I shall not
use the proprietary or confidential information or trade secrets of any former employer or any other person or entity in connection with my employment with the Company. During my employment by the
Company, I will not improperly use or disclose any proprietary or confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employer or any other person or entity to whom I have an obligation
of confidentiality, and I will not bring onto the premises of the Company any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person or entity to whom I have an
obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by that former employer, person, or entity. 

        9.    No Conflicting Obligation.    I represent that my performance of
all the terms of this Agreement and as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement between me and any other employer, person or entity. I have not entered into, and I agree I
will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith. 

        10.    Return of Company Documents.    When I leave the employ of the
Company, I will deliver to the Company all drawings, notes, memoranda, specifications, devices, formulas, and documents, together with all copies thereof, and any other material containing or
disclosing any Company Inventions, Third
Party Information, or Proprietary Information of the Company. I further agree that any property situated on the Company's premises and owned by the Company, including disks and other storage media,
filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject to inspection by Company personnel at any time with or without notice. 

        11.    Legal and Equitable Remedies.    Because my services are
personal and unique and because I may have access to and become acquainted with the Proprietary Information of the Company, the Company shall have the right to enforce this Agreement and any of its
provisions by injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, without bond and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies that the Company may have for a breach of this Agreement. 

        12.    Authorization to Notify New Employer.    I hereby authorize the
Company to notify my new employer about my rights and obligations under this Agreement following the termination of my employment with the Company. 

        13.    Notices.    Any notices required or permitted hereunder shall
be given to the appropriate party at the address specified on the signature page hereof. Such notice shall be deemed given upon personal delivery to the appropriate address or if sent by certified or
registered mail, three days after the date of mailing. 

        14.    General Provisions.    

        14.1    Governing Law.    This Agreement will be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Texas
without regard to conflicts of law principles. 

4

 

        14.2    Exclusive Forum.    I hereby irrevocably agree that the exclusive forum for any suit, action, or other
proceeding arising out of or in any way related to this Agreement shall be in the state or federal courts in Texas, and I agree to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of any court in Dallas
County, Texas. 

        14.3    Entire Agreement.    This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and
myself relating to the subject matter hereof and supercedes and merges all prior discussions between us. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this
Agreement, will be effective unless in writing signed by the party to be charged. Any subsequent change or changes in my duties, salary, or compensation will not affect the validity or scope
of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the period of my employment includes any time during which I may be retained by the Company as a consultant. 

        14.4    Severability.    

        (a)   I
acknowledge and agree that each agreement and covenant set forth herein constitutes a separate agreement independently supported by good and adequate consideration and
that each such agreement shall be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and shall survive this Agreement. 

        (b)   I
understand and agree that Section 7 of this Agreement is to be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Accordingly, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the scope and/or operation of Section 7 is too broad to be enforced as written,
the Company and I intend that the court should reform such provision to such narrower scope and/or operation as it determines to be enforceable, provided, however, that such reformation applies only
with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction with respect to which such determination was made. If, however, Section 7
is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future law, and not subject to reformation, then (i) such provision shall be fully severable, (ii) this Agreement shall
be construed and enforced as if such provision was never a part of this Agreement, and (iii) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be
affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance. 

        14.5    Successors and Assigns.    This Agreement will be binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators, and other
legal representatives and will be for the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns. 

        14.6    Survival.    The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of my employment for any reason
and the assignment of this Agreement by the Company to any successor in interest or other assignee. 

        14.7    Employment.    I agree and understand that my employment with the Company is at-will, which means
that either I or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without prior notice and with or without cause. I further agree and understand that nothing in this
Agreement shall confer any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with my right or the Company's right to terminate my employment at any
time, with or without cause. 

        14.8    Waiver.    No waiver by the Company of any breach of this Agreement shall be a waiver of any preceding or
succeeding breach. No waiver by the Company of any right under this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any other right. The Company shall not be required to give notice to enforce strict
adherence to all terms of this Agreement. 

        14.9    Headings.    The headings to each section or paragraph of this Agreement are provided for convenience or
reference only and shall have no legal effect in the interpretation of the terms hereof.

hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) he has full right and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform his obligations hereunder, (b) the execution and

EXHIBIT A

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION AND

INVENTIONS AGREEMENT  

        In consideration of my engagement as an independent contractor with Krona Acquisition, Corp., a Delaware corporation (the  "Company"), the
training, contacts and experience that I may receive in connection with such engagement, the compensation paid to me by the Company, and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, I agree as follows: 

Section 1.    Definitions  

        The following terms have the following specified meanings: 

        "Confidential Information" means any information related to the business or other affairs of the Company or its affiliates that is not
generally available to the public, and that: (a) is conceived, compiled, developed, or discovered by me whether solely or jointly with others, during the Term or (b) is or has been
received or otherwise becomes known to me in connection with my engagement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Confidential Information includes information relating to Inventions and
Works, trade secrets, products, services, finances, business plans, marketing plans, legal affairs, suppliers, clients, potential clients, prospects, opportunities, contracts or assets of the Company
or its affiliates. Confidential Information also includes any information that has been made available to the Company by its clients or other third parties and which the Company is obligated to keep
confidential. 

        "Inventions and Works" means any composition, work of authorship, computer program, product, device, technique, know-how,
algorithm, method, process, procedure, improvement, discovery or invention, whether or not patentable or copyrightable and whether or not reduced to practice, that is (a) within the scope of
the Company's business, research or investigations or results from or is suggested by any work performed by me for the Company and (b) created, conceived, reduced to practice, developed,
discovered, invented or made by me during the Term, whether solely or jointly with others, while engaged in performing Services for the Company. 

        "Materials" means any product, prototype, sample, model, document, diskette, tape, picture, drawing, design, recording, report, proposal,
paper, note, writing or other tangible item which in whole or in part contains, embodies or manifests, whether in printed, handwritten, coded, magnetic or other form, any Confidential Information or
Inventions and Works. 

        "Proprietary Right" means any patent, copyright, mask work, trade secret, trademark, trade name, service mark or other protected
intellectual property right in any Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, or Material. 

        "Term" means the period from the beginning of my engagement with the Company through the last day of such engagement. 

Section 2.    Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, and Materials  

2.1    Ownership.    As between the Company and me, the Company is and will be the
sole owner of all Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, Materials and Proprietary Rights. To the extent eligible for such treatment, all Inventions and Works will constitute "works made for
hire" under applicable copyright laws. 

2.2    Assignment.    I hereby irrevocably assign and transfer to the Company all
right, title and interest that I may now or hereafter have in the Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, Materials and Proprietary Rights, subject to the limitations set forth in the notice
below. This assignment and transfer is independent of any obligation or commitment made to me by the Company. Further, I hereby waive any moral rights that I may have in or to any Confidential
Information, Inventions and Works, Materials and Proprietary Rights. I will take such action (including, but not limited to, the execution, 

acknowledgment,
delivery and assistance in preparation of documents or the giving of testimony) as may be requested by the Company and at the Company's expense, to evidence, transfer, vest or confirm
the Company's right, title and interest in the Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, Materials and Proprietary Rights, and the license rights described in Section 2.6 below. I will
not contest the validity of any Proprietary Rights provided that such Proprietary Right relates to Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, or Material properly designated as such. If I have
any question as to whether any information, an invention, a work, a material or a right qualifies, respectively, as Confidential Information, an Invention, a Work, a Material or a Proprietary Right, I
will inform the Company of the nature of such information, invention, work, material or right for the Company's determination as to whether such information, invention, work, material or right is,
respectively, Confidential Information, an Invention, a Work, a Material or a Proprietary Right. 

NOTICE: The parties acknowledge that I shall be and act as an independent contractor (and not as an employee of the Company) in performing work for the
Company.

        However,
if I am for any reason deemed to be an employee of the Company, or if RCW 49.44.140 or any similar state law extending benefits or rights to employees is deemed to apply to me,
I acknowledge that I have read and received the notices set forth in the Invention Notice Schedule attached to this Agreement and that this notice satisfies the written notice and other requirements
of Washington law under RCW 49.44.140 as set forth in the Invention Notice Schedule attached to this Agreement and the state law principles that may be relied upon in extending such benefits or rights
to me. 

2.3    Company Authority.    If the Company is unable for any reason to secure my
signature to fulfill the intent of the foregoing paragraph or to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents or copyright registrations covering Inventions and
Works assigned to the Company above, then I irrevocably appoint the Company and its authorized agents as my agent and attorney in fact, to transfer, vest or confirm the Company's rights and to execute
and file any such applications and to do all other lawful acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent or copyright registrations with the same legal force as if done by me. 

2.4    Use Restrictions.    Except as required for performance of my work for the
Company or as authorized in writing by the Company, I will not (a) use, disclose, publish or distribute any Confidential Information, Inventions and Works or Materials or (b) remove any
Materials from the Company's premises. I will hold all Materials in trust for the Company and I will deliver them to the Company upon request and in any event at the end of the Term. I will take all
action necessary to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, Inventions and Works or Materials including, without limitation, implementing and enforcing operating procedures to
minimize the possibility of unauthorized use or copying thereof. 

2.5    Disclosure Obligations.    I will promptly disclose to the Company all
Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, and Materials. I agree that at the end of the Term I will deliver to the Company (and will not keep in my possession, re-create or deliver
to anyone else) any and all Inventions and Works, Materials and other property belonging to the Company, its successors or assigns. 

2.6    Prior Inventions.    I have attached as  Exhibit A a
list describing all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements, and trade secrets which were made by me
prior to the Term (collectively referred to as "Prior Inventions"), which belong to me or in which I have an interest, which relate to the Company's
current or proposed business, products or research and development, and which are not assigned to the Company. I represent and warrant that this list is complete and accurate. If no such Prior
Inventions exist, then I have written "none" on Exhibit A or left it blank. If Exhibit A
is left blank or reads "none," then I represent that there are no Prior Inventions. Notwithstanding the notice in Section 2.2, if, during the Term, I use any Prior Inventions with or
incorporate any Prior Invention in any Confidential Information, Inventions and Works or Materials into a Company product, process or machine, I hereby irrevocably grant to the Company, to the full
extent of my rights in and to the same, a fully paid-up, perpetual, worldwide right and license to sublicense, disclose, offer, copy, distribute, import, make, have made, make derivative
works of, use and 

otherwise
exploit any trade secrets, copyrights, patents or other proprietary rights to the Prior Inventions belonging to me or a third party with such Confidential Information, Inventions and Works,
or Materials. 

Section 3.    No Conflicting Obligations  

3.1    No Solicitation.    During the Term and for a period of one (1) year
after the end of the Term, I will not induce, or attempt to induce, any employee or consultant of the Company to leave such employment or relationship to engage in, be employed by, perform services
for, participate in or otherwise be connected with, either directly or indirectly, me or any enterprise with which I am in any way associated. 

3.2    No Breaches.    My execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and
the performance of my other obligations and duties to the Company will not cause any breach, default or violation of any other employment, nondisclosure, confidentiality, consulting or other agreement
to which I am a party or by which I may be bound. I will not use in performance of my work for the Company or disclose to the Company any trade secret, confidential or proprietary information of any
prior employer or other person or entity if and to the extent that such use or disclosure may cause any breach, default or violation of any obligation or duty that I owe to such other person or entity
(e.g., under any agreement or applicable law). My compliance with this Section 3.2 will not prohibit, restrict or impair the performance of my work, obligations and duties to the Company. 

3.3    No Disparagement.    Neither the Company nor I will (a) make any
false, misleading or disparaging representations or statements with regard to the other party or the products or services of the other party; or (b) make any statement that may impair or
otherwise adversely affect the goodwill or reputation of the other party. 

3.5    Diversion of Company Business.    During the Term and for a period of one
(1) year after the end of the Term, I will not divert or attempt to divert from the Company any business the Company enjoyed or solicited from its customers during the twelve (12) months
prior to the end of the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, nothing in this Section 3.5 shall prevent Consultant from engaging the services of or doing business with any customer of
the Company in connection with any business or services that are separate from and/or unrelated to the business being conducted with the Company. 

Section 4.    General Provisions  

4.1    At-Will Engagement.    This Agreement is not a contract of
employment and no rights of employment are hereby created. Unless otherwise set forth in a written agreement signed by me and the Company, my engagement with the Company is "at will" and may be
terminated at any time, with or without cause, by me or the Company. 

4.2    Survival.    The following provisions will survive the termination or
expiration of this Agreement: Sections 1, 2, 3.1, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 4. 

4.3    Equitable Relief.    In the event of any breach of or default under this
Agreement by me, the Company may suffer irreparable harm and have no adequate remedy at law. In the event of any such breach or default, or any threat of such breach or default, the Company will be
entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance and other equitable relief. Further, in any legal action or other proceeding in connection with this Agreement (e.g., to recover damages or other
relief), the prevailing party will be entitled to recover, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled, its reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in that action or
proceeding. The rights and remedies of the Company under this Section 4.3 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy afforded to the Company under any other provision of
this Agreement, by law or otherwise. 

4.4    Severability.    This Agreement will be enforced to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law. If for any reason any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, then (a) such provision will be interpreted, construed or
reformed to the extent reasonably required to 

render
the same valid, enforceable and consistent with the original intent underlying such provision and (b) such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this
Agreement or any other agreement between the Company and me. If the invalidity or unenforceability is due to the unreasonableness of the scope or duration of the provision, the provision will remain
effective for such scope and duration as may be determined to be reasonable. 

4.5    No Waiver.    The failure of the Company to insist upon or enforce strict
performance of any other provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any of its rights or remedies under this Agreement will not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment to any extent of the
Company's rights to assert or rely on any such provision, right or remedy in that or any instance; rather, the same will be and remain in full force and effect. 

4.6    Entire Agreement.    This Agreement shall be effective as of the date I
execute the Agreement and shall be binding upon me, my heirs, executors, assigns and administrators. This Agreement sets forth the entire Agreement, and supersedes any and all prior agreements,
between me and the Company with regard to the Confidential Information, Inventions and Works, Materials and Proprietary Rights of the Company. This Agreement is independent of any other written
agreements between me and the Company regarding other aspects of my engagement. This Agreement may not be amended, except in a writing signed by me and an authorized representative of the Company. 

4.7    Governing Law and Venue.    This Agreement will be governed by the laws of
the State of Washington without regard to its choice of law principles to the contrary. I irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in King County,
Washington, in connection with any action relating to this Agreement. Further, I will not bring any action relating to this Agreement in any other court. 

4.8    Acknowledgement.    I have carefully read all of the provisions of this
Agreement and agree that (a) the same are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company's business, (b) the Company has been induced to enter into and continue its
relationship with me in reliance upon my compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) every provision of this Agreement is reasonable with respect to its scope and duration and
(d) I have received a copy of this Agreement. 

This
Agreement shall be effective as of April 1, 2007.
