1.3.                              The provisions of this Section 1 shall not be deemed to prohibit Borgstrom from devoting reasonable time to personal or other business matters that do not constitute “Competitive Acts” as such term is defined in Section 12.2 of the Employment Agreement with the Company which Borgstrom signed on December 17, 2009 (the “Borgstrom Employment Agreement”).

 

1.4.                              The Company will reimburse Borgstrom in accordance with its normal reimbursement policy for pre-approved and reasonable travel and other expenses incurred at the Company’s request in carrying out Borgstrom’s requested duties under this Agreement.  Reimbursement for approved expenses will be made within thirty (30) days of receipt from Borgstrom of an itemized expense report.

 



 

2.                                       Reaffirmation of Continuing Obligations.

 

2.1.                              Notwithstanding his resignation as an officer and director of the Company, Borgstrom acknowledges and hereby reaffirms his continuing obligations under Sections 9 and 10 of the Employment Agreement, which governs the use and disclosure of “Confidential Information” (as such term is defined in Section 9.2 of the Employment Agreement).

3.6.                              In case any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

3.7.                              The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court within the State of Minnesota having jurisdiction, state or federal, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

effect to principles of conflicts of law.  The undersigned each irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota and the courts of the State of Minnesota in any suit, action, or proceeding brought under, based on or related to or in connection with this Agreement, and each of the undersigned agrees that either of the aforesaid courts shall be the exclusive original forum for any such action.

 

3.9.                              This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Both parties agree that signature pages may be detached from separate counterparts and attached to a separate counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.  Transmission by facsimile or in PDF format of an executed counterpart to this Agreement will be deemed due and sufficient delivery of such counterpart, and a photocopy of an executed counterpart sent by facsimile transmission or electronically in PDF format may be treated by the parties as a duplicate original.
