its practices, methods, trade secrets, know-how, services, products and

and NTIC further acknowledge that NTIC would be unfairly and irreparably harmed
if Donald A. Kubik and/or DAK competes with NTIC.&#160; Therefore, each of Donald A. Kubik and DAK
agree that during the term of this Agreement and for a period of three
(3)&nbsp;years thereafter, each of Donald A. Kubik and DAK shall not, directly
or indirectly, whether alone or in association with others, whether as
principal, agent, partner, member, manager or in any other capacity:&#160; (a)&nbsp;compete with NTIC or its affiliates
(including any joint venture) in any geographic market in which it has done
business during the term of this Agreement, (b)&nbsp;cause or seek to cause any
client, customer, or supplier of NTIC or any of its affiliates (including any
joint venture) to cease or alter its, or not enter into a, relationship with
NTIC or a NTIC affiliate, or (c)&nbsp;cause or seek to cause any employee, agent,
or contractor of NTIC or any of its affiliates (including any joint venture) to
cease or alter such employee&#146;s, agent&#146;s or contractor&#146;s relationship with NTIC
or its affiliate.&#160; The restricted period
set forth in the preceding sentence will be extended for a period equal to the
duration of any breach of the preceding restrictive covenants.&#160; NTIC recognizes DAK&#146;s right to earn a
living.&#160; Consequently, should the closing
sale price of NTIC&#146;s common stock drop to $2.00 per share (as reported on the
NASDAQ Stock Market or such other principal exchange or market on which NTIC&#146;s
common stock is then listed or traded) or less for a continuous six
(6)&nbsp;month period, then the restrictions stated above in this
Section&nbsp;10(a)&nbsp;shall be null and void.&#160;
In addition, the restrictions contained in this
Section&nbsp;10(a)&nbsp;of this Agreement will not prevent DAK or Donald A.
Kubik from accepting employment with a large diversified organization with
separate and distinct divisions that do not compete, directly or indirectly, with
NTIC or any of its affiliates (including any joint venture), as long as prior
to accepting such employment NTIC receives a written assurance from DAK and
Donald A. Kubik, satisfactory to NTIC, to the effect that neither DAK nor
Donald A. Kubik will render any services to any division or business unit that
competes, directly or indirectly, with NTIC or any of its affiliates (including
any joint venture).&#160; During the
restrictive period set forth in Section&nbsp;10(a), DAK and Donald A. Kubik
will inform any new employer, prior to accepting employment, of the existence
of this Agreement and provide such employer with a copy of this Agreement.&#160; In the event that DAK&#146;s services under the
Agreement terminate for any reason, no additional compensation will be paid for
this non-competition obligation.</font></h1>
