Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of Article VI or this Article VII but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from Executive and Executive’s agents.

4.Reasonableness; Enforcement.  Executive hereby represents to the Company that Executive has read and understands, and agrees to be bound by, the terms of this Article VII. Executive acknowledges that the geographic scope and duration of the covenants contained in this Article VII are the result of arm’s-length bargaining and are fair and reasonable in light of
(a) the nature and wide geographic scope of the operations of the Business, (b) Executive’s level of control over and contact with the Business in all jurisdictions in which it is conducted, (c) the fact that the Business is conducted throughout the Restricted Area and (d) the amount of compensation, trade secrets and Confidential Information that Executive is receiving in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Article VII be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, whether now or hereafter in effect and therefore, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, Executive and the Company hereby waive any provision of applicable Legal Requirements that would render any provision of this Article VII invalid or unenforceable.

5.Reformation. The Company and Executive agree that the foregoing restrictions are reasonable under the circumstances and that any breach of the covenants contained in this Article VII would cause irreparable injury to the Company. Executive expressly represents that enforcement of the restrictive covenants 

Exhibit 10.37

set forth in this Article VII will not impose an undue hardship upon Executive or any person or entity affiliated with Executive.  Executive understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit Executive’s ability to engage in certain businesses anywhere in the Restricted Area during the Restricted Period, but acknowledges that Executive will receive sufficiently high remuneration and other benefits from the Company to justify such restriction. Further, Executive acknowledges that Executive’s skills are such that Executive can be gainfully employed in non-competitive employment, and that the agreement not to compete will not prevent Executive from earning a living. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid restrictions are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad as to geographic area or time, or otherwise unenforceable, the parties intend for the restrictions herein set forth to be modified by the court making such determination so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, to be fully enforced. By agreeing to this contractual modification prospectively at this time, the Company and Executive intend to make this provision enforceable under the law or laws of all applicable jurisdictions so that the entire
agreement not to compete and this Agreement as prospectively modified shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be rendered void or illegal. Such modification shall not affect the payments made to Executive under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII
STATEMENTS CONCERNING THE COMPANY

8.1    Statements by Executive.  Executive shall refrain, both during and after the termination of the employment relationship, from publishing any oral or written statements about the Company, any of its affiliates or any of the Company’s or such affiliates’ directors, managers, officers, employees, consultants, agents or representatives that (a) are slanderous, libelous or defamatory, (b) disclose Confidential Information (other than Confidential Information that has become publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by Executive) of the Company, any of its affiliates or any of the Company’s or any such affiliates’ business affairs, directors, managers, officers, employees, consultants, agents or representatives, or (c) place the Company, any of its affiliates, or any of the Company’s or any such affiliates’ directors, managers, officers, employees, consultants, agents or representatives in a false light before the public. A violation or threatened violation of this prohibition may be enjoined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The rights afforded the Company and its affiliates under this provision are in addition to any and all rights and remedies otherwise afforded by law. The foregoing notwithstanding, nothing shall prevent Executive from testifying in any legal proceeding pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process.

	2.
	Applicable Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a)This Agreement is entered into under, and shall be governed for all purposes by, the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

(b)With respect to any claim or dispute related to or arising under this Agreement, the parties hereto hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of the state and federal courts located in the State of Colorado.

3.Litigation. Executive agrees to cooperate, in a reasonable and appropriate manner, with the Company and its attorneys, both during and after the termination of his employment, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding arising out of or relating to matters in which Executive was involved prior to the termination of his employment to the extent the Company pays all expenses Executive incurs in connection with such cooperation and to the extent such cooperation does not unduly interfere (as determined by Executive in good faith) with Executive’s personal or professional schedule.

4.Dispute Resolution.  Except as provided otherwise in Sections 7.3 and 8.1, all claims, demands, causes of action, disputes, controversies or other matters in question (“Claims”) arising out of this Agreement or Executive’s service (or termination from service) with the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise and whether provided by statute, equity or common law, that the Company may have against Executive or that Executive may have against the Company, or its parents or subsidiaries, or against each of the foregoing entities’ respective officers, directors, employees or agents in their capacity as such or otherwise, shall be settled in accordance with the procedures described in Section 9.4(a) and (b). Claims covered by this Section 9.4 include, without limitation, claims by Executive for breach of this Agreement, wrongful termination, discrimination (based on age, race, sex, disability, national origin, sexual orientation, or any other factor), harassment and retaliation.

(a)Agreement to Negotiate. First, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any Claims promptly by negotiations between Executive and executives or directors of the Company or its affiliates who have authority to settle the Claims. Either party must give the other disputing party written notice of any Claim not resolved in the normal course of business.
Within five days after the effective date of that notice, Executive and such executives or directors of the Company shall agree upon a mutually acceptable time and place to meet in person or by phone and shall meet at that time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the Claim. The first of those meetings shall take place within 30 days of the date of the disputing party’s notice. If the Claim has not been resolved within 60 days of the date of the disputing party’s notice, or if the parties fail to agree on a time and place for an initial meeting within five days of that notice, either party may elect to undertake arbitration in accordance with Section 9.4(b).

(b)Agreement to Arbitrate. If a Claim is not resolved by negotiation pursuant to Section 9.4(a), such Claim must be resolved through arbitration regardless of whether the Claim involves claims that the Agreement is unlawful, unenforceable, void, or voidable or involves claims under statutory, civil or common law. Any arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then-current Employment Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If a party refuses to honor its obligations under this Section 9.4(b), the other party may compel arbitration in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law of Colorado (excluding choice-of-law principles that might call for the application of some other jurisdiction’s law) or federal law, or both as applicable to the Claims asserted.  The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability or formation of this 

Exhibit 10.37

Agreement (including this Section 9.4), including any claim that all or part of the Agreement is void or voidable and any Claim that an issue is not subject to arbitration.  Unless otherwise agreed, claims may only be brought on an individual basis; neither the Company nor Executive may submit a class action, collective action, representative action, or multi-claimant action for resolution in arbitration. The results of arbitration will be binding and conclusive on the parties hereto. The arbitration shall take place in the State of Colorado where all hearings shall take place unless agreed otherwise by the parties. Any and all of the arbitrator’s orders, decisions and awards may be enforceable in, and judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and entered by any federal or state court having jurisdiction. All evidentiary privileges under applicable state and federal law, including attorney-client, work product and party communication privileges, shall be preserved and protected. The decision of the arbitrator will be binding on all parties.  Arbitrations will be conducted in such a manner that the final decision of the arbitrator will be made and provided to Executive and the Company no later than 120 days after a matter is submitted to arbitration. All proceedings conducted pursuant to this agreement to arbitrate, including any order, decision or award of the arbitrators, shall be kept confidential by all parties. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of arbitration.
The Company shall pay the cost of the arbitration, including the arbitrator’s fees, unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrator. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EXECUTIVE IS WAIVING ANY RIGHT THAT EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL OR A COURT TRIAL OF ANY SERVICE RELATED CLAIM ALLEGED BY EXECUTIVE.

5.No Waiver. No failure by either party hereto at any time to give notice of any breach by the other party of, or to require compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.
6.Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then the invalidity or unenforceability of that provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

7.Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same Agreement.

8.Withholding of Taxes and Other Employee Deductions.  The Company may withhold from any benefits and payments made pursuant to this Agreement (whether actually or constructively made to Executive or treated as included in Executive’s income under Section 409A of the Code) all federal, state, city and other applicable taxes and withholdings as may be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling and all other customary deductions made with respect to the Company’s employees generally.

9.Headings. The Section headings have been inserted for purposes of convenience and shall not be used for interpretive purposes.

10.Gender and Plurals. Wherever the context so requires, the masculine gender includes the feminine or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural and conversely.

11.Affiliate.  As used in this Agreement, the term “affiliate” as used with respect to a particular person or entity shall mean any other person or entity which owns or controls, is owned or controlled by, or is under common ownership or control with, such particular person or entity.

12.Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor of the Company.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, are personal and neither this Agreement, nor any right, benefit or obligation of either party hereto, shall be subject to voluntary or involuntary assignment, alienation or transfer, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party. In addition, any payment owed to Executive hereunder after the date of Executive’s death shall be paid to Executive’s estate.

13.Term. Termination of this Agreement shall not affect any right or obligation of any party which is 

Exhibit 10.37

accrued or vested prior to such termination. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, the provisions of Articles V, VI, VII, VIII and IX shall survive any termination of the employment relationship and/or of this Agreement.

14.Entire Agreement. Except as provided in any signed written agreement contemporaneously or hereafter executed by the Company and Executive, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and contains all the covenants, promises, representations, warranties and agreements between the parties with respect to employment of Executive by the Company. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, all understandings and agreements preceding the date of execution of this Agreement and relating to the subject matter hereof (including the Blackwater Agreement) are hereby null and void and of no further force and effect. The parties further acknowledge that the
termination of the Blackwater Agreement does not constitute a separation from service by Executive from Blackwater and that no benefits or payments are due to Executive from Blackwater or the Company as a result of the termination of the Blackwater Agreement.

15.Modification; Waiver. Any modification to or waiver of this Agreement will be effective only if it is in writing and signed by the parties to this Agreement; provided that the Company may, with prospective or retroactive effect, amend this Agreement at any time (to the extent Executive is not adversely affected by such amendment), if determined to be necessary, appropriate or advisable in response to administrative guidance issued under Section 409A of the Code or to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code.

16.Compliance with Section 409A of the Code.  It is intended that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement shall be exempt from or comply with the application of the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be construed, administered and governed in a manner that affects such intent. Specifically, (a) each payment under this Agreement, including each payment in a series of installment payments, is deemed to be a separate installment payment and (b) any taxable benefits or payments provided under this Agreement are deemed to be separate payments that qualify for the “short-term deferral” exclusion from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent possible, and to the extent they do not so qualify, are intended to qualify for the “involuntary separation pay” exclusion from Section 409A of the Code, to the maximum extent possible. To the extent that none of these exceptions (or any other available exception) applies, then notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code (as determined by the Company), if Executive is a “specified employee,” as determined by the Company, as of his Date of Termination, then all amounts due under this Agreement that constitute a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, that are provided as a result of a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and that would otherwise be paid or provided during the first six months following Executive’s Date of Termination, shall be accumulated through and paid or provided on the first business day that is more than six months after Executive’s Date of Termination (or, if Executive dies during such six-month period, within 90 days after Executive’s death).
