I am pleased to inform you that I will recommend to the Board of Directors that an

Inventions and Proprietary Rights Assignment Agreement, NAIs Insider Trading Policy, its Drug Free

representations or agreements, whether written or oral. This letter may not be modified
or amended except by writing signed by NAI.

but not limited to, any claims of wrongful termination or age, sex, disability, race or

arbitration conducted by the American
Arbitration Association in California or the state you work in, and we waive our rights
to have such disputes tried by a court or jury. However, we agree that this arbitration
provision shall not apply to any disputes or claims relating to or arising out of the
misuse or misappropriation of your or the Companys trade secrets or proprietary
