(b) Due to the sensitive nature of the Executive's position and the special access that the Executive has had and will have to both the Company's Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) and Intellectual Property (as hereinafter defined), the Executive will be in a position to irreparably harm the Company should the Executive (either during the Executive's employment with the Company, or subsequent to the termination of such employment) enter into competition with the Company (directly or indirectly) or otherwise make use of the specialized knowledge, contacts and connections obtained during the Executive's employment to the detriment of the Company.

(e) If the covenants and restrictions contained in this Section 11 are found to be unreasonable to any extent by a court of competent jurisdiction adjudicating upon the validity of Section 11, whether as to the scope of the restriction, the area of the restriction or the duration of the restriction, then such restriction shall be reduced to that which is in fact declared reasonable by such court, or a subsequent court of competent jurisdiction, requested to make such a declaration. 11.2 Confidential Information During the course of the Executive's employment with the Company, the Executive will have access to and be entrusted with confidential information relating to the Company, its Member Companies, and their respective customers, clients, suppliers, distributors, consultants, agents and employees (the "Confidential Information"), the particulars of which, if disclosed to competitors of the Company or to the general public, would be detrimental to the best interests of the Company. The Executive, therefore, agrees that the Confidential Information is the exclusive property of the Company, and that while employed by the Company and at all times thereafter, the Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, (a) reveal, disclose or make known any Confidential Information to any person; or (b) use the Confidential Information for any purpose, other than for the purpose of the Company. 11.3 Intellectual Property (a) All worldwide rights, title and interest in any and all advances, computer programs, concepts, compositions, data, database technologies, designs,

discoveries, domain names, drawings, formulae, ideas, improvements, integrated circuit typographies, inventions, know-how, mask works, sketches, software, practices, processes, research materials, trade-secrets, work methods, patents, trade-marks, copyright works and any other intellectual property (whether registrable or not) produced, made, composed, written, performed, or designed by the Executive, either alone or jointly with others, in the course of the Executive's employment with the Company and in any way relating to the business of the Company (the "Intellectual Property"), shall vest in and be the exclusive property of the Company. (b) Both during the Term and following termination of employment with the Company, the Executive shall fully and promptly disclose to the Company, complete details of any Intellectual Property right arising in connection with the Executive's employment, with the intention that the Company shall have full knowledge and ownership of the working and practical applications of such right.
