The Stock Grant will be evidenced by and subject to the terms and conditions of a separate Notice of Grant and Restricted Stock Agreement.

 

3.2 Expenses. Any expenses incurred by Consultant at the request of the Company shall be reimbursed by the Company subject to receipt by the Company of appropriate documentation.

Nothing contained herein shall prevent Consultant from performing similar services to other companies. Company shall be deemed sole and exclusive owner of all rights, title and interest in the work product, deliverables (tangible or intangible), and other results and proceeds of Consultant’s services to the Company, including all intellectual property rights (collectively, the “Materials”). In the event that it should be determined that any elements or components of the Material are not deemed to be a work for hire, or that Consultant is deemed to retain any rights in the Materials by operation of law, Consultant will and hereby does assign, convey and transfer to Company (or its licensor, where applicable) all rights that Consultant possesses or may possess in the Materials.

Section 7. Confidentiality.

 

7.1 Confidential Information Defined. The Company may disclose to Consultant non-public information to further the performance of this Agreement. “Confidential Information” means all information (written or oral) disclosed by the Company, including but not limited to technical, financial and business information relating to the Company’s products, services, processes, profit or margin information, finances, customers, suppliers, prices, marketing, and future business plans. Consultant will not, either during or subsequent to the term of this Agreement, directly or indirectly divulge to any unauthorized person any information designated as confidential by Company; nor will Consultant disclose to anyone other than a Company employee or use in any way other than in the course of the performance of this Agreement any information regarding Company, including Company's platforms, technologies, research and development, designs, products, services, finances, marketing plans, and other information not known to the general public whether acquired or developed by Consultant during his performance of this Agreement or obtained from Company employees; nor will Consultant, either during or subsequent to the term of this Agreement, directly or indirectly disclose or publish any such information without prior written authorization from Company to do so. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that all of the foregoing information is proprietary to Company, that such information is a valuable and unique asset of Company, and that disclosure of such information to third parties or unauthorized use of such information would cause substantial and irreparable injury to Company's ongoing business for which there would be no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or attempted or threatened breach of any of the terms of this Section, Consultant agrees that Company shall be entitled to receive injunctive and other equitable relief without need of posting a bond, and without limiting the applicability of any other remedies.
