(g)   General Release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefit pursuant to this Section 6 (except payment of the Accrued Obligations) unless the Executive executes, immediately prior to such payment, a general release of the Employer and its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (the “Releasees”), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Employer.

 

7.      Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition.

(c)   Non-Solicitation of Customers. During the Restricted Period, the Executive will not (i) solicit, or assist any Person other than an PCA Entity to solicit, any Person that is a client or customer of any PCA Entity, or has been a client or customer of any PCA Entity during the prior twelve (12) months, to provide any services relating to a Competitive Business or (ii) interfere with any of the business relationships of any PCA Entity.

 

(d)   Scope. The Executive acknowledges that (i) the markets served by the PCA Entities are national and international in scope and are not dependent on the geographic location of the executive personnel or the businesses by which they are employed; and (ii) the above covenants are reasonable on their face, and the parties expressly agree that such restrictions have been designed to be reasonable and no greater than is required for the protection of the PCA Entities and are a significant element of the consideration hereunder.

 

8.      Confidential Information.

 

(a)   The Executive shall not (for the Executive's own benefit or the benefit of any Person other than the PCA Entities) use or disclose any information with respect to any PCA Entity or any customer or client of any PCA Entity (collectively, “Confidential Information”). “Confidential Information” includes, by way of example, matters of a business nature, such as proprietary information about costs, profits, markets, sales, lists of customers, and other information of a similar nature and matters of a technical nature, “know-how,” computer programs (including documentation of such programs) and research projects, in each case, to the extent not available to the public and to the extent not independently generated by the Executive or others without any reference to the Confidential Information of any PCA Entity or any customer or client of an PCA Entity, and such materials constituting plans for future development. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may disclose Confidential Information (i) if compelled to disclose the same by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of law or regulation (but subject to the following provisions of this Section 9(a)), (ii) if the same hereafter is in the public domain through no fault of the Executive, (iii) if the same is later acquired by the Executive from another source that is not under an obligation to another Person to keep such information confidential or (iv) if the same was independently developed by the Executive without use of, or reference to, any of the information furnished by or on behalf of any PCA Entity, provided that such independent development can reasonably be proven by written records. If the Executive is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to disclose any such information, the Executive shall provide the applicable PCA Entity with prompt written notice of any such request or requirement so that such PCA Entity may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 9(a). If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by the applicable PCA Entity, the Executive nonetheless, based on the written advice of outside counsel, is required to disclose such information to any tribunal or in accordance with applicable law or regulation, the Executive, without liability hereunder, may disclose that portion of such information which such counsel advises the Executive he or she is legally required to disclose.

 

(b)   At any time upon the request of the Employer or any PCA Entity, the Executive (or the Executive's heirs or personal representatives) shall deliver to the Employer or any other applicable PCA Entity all documents and materials containing Confidential Information and all documents, materials and other property belonging to the Employer or such PCA Entity, which in either case are in the possession or under the control of the Executive (or the Executive's heirs or personal representatives).

 

-7-
 

 

(c)   All discoveries and works made or conceived by the Executive during and in the course of the Executive's employment by the Employer, individually or jointly with others, that relate to the Employer’s activities shall be owned and assignable by the Employer. The terms “discoveries and works” include, by way of example, inventions, computer programs (including documentation of such programs), technical improvements, processes, drawings, and works of authorship, including all publications which relate to the business conducted by any of the PCA Entities or the business, operations or activities of any customer or client of the Employer. The Executive shall promptly notify and make full disclosure to, and execute and deliver any documents reasonably requested by, the Employer to evidence or confirm title to such discoveries and works by the Employer, assist the Employer in obtaining or maintaining, at the Employer’s expense, United States and foreign patents, copyrights, trade secret protection and other protection of any and all such discoveries and works, and promptly execute, whether during the Executive’s employment or thereafter, all applications or other endorsements necessary or appropriate to maintain patents and other rights for the Employer or its assignees and to protect its title thereto. Any discoveries and works which, within six months after the termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder, are made, disclosed, reduced to a tangible or written form or description, or are reduced to practice by the Executive and which pertain to work performed by the Executive while with, and in the Executive’s capacity as an employee of, the Employer shall, as between the Executive and the Employer, be presumed to have been made during the Executive’s employment by the Employer. The Executive hereby assigns to the Employer the Executive's interest, if any, in all discoveries and works made or conceived by the Executive during and in the course of the Executive’s employment by the Sellers, individually or jointly with others, that related to the Seller’s activities and agrees to comply with this Section 8(c) in relation to all such discoveries and works.

 

9.      Enforcement.

 

(a)   The Executive agrees that because a remedy at law may be inadequate to properly compensate the Employer from violations of Sections 7 and 8 and thus, injunctive relief may be necessary to affect the intent of such Sections. Accordingly, the Executive hereby waives any objection to Employer’s attempts to seek injunctive relief as a remedy to the Executive’s breach of Section 7 or 8.

 

(b)   In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions contained in Sections 7 or 8 shall be unenforceable in any respect, then such provisions shall be deemed limited and restricted to the extent that the court shall deem the provision to be enforceable. It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that the covenants and restrictions in Sections 7 or 8 be given the broadest interpretation permitted by law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of any provision therein shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. If, in any judicial or arbitration proceedings, a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitration panel should refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants and restrictions in such Sections, then such unenforceable covenants and restrictions shall be eliminated from the provisions of this Agreement for the purpose of such proceeding to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants and restrictions to be enforced in such proceeding.

10.      Property of Employer.

 

The Executive acknowledges that from time to time in the course of providing services pursuant to this Agreement, Executive shall have the opportunity to inspect and use certain property, both tangible and intangible, of the Employer, and the Executive hereby agrees that such property shall remain the exclusive property of the Employer and the Executive shall have no right or proprietary interest in such property, whether tangible or intangible including, without limitation, the customer and supplier lists, contract forms, books of account, computer programs and similar property of the Employer.

Neither the waiver by either of the parties hereto of a breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor the failure of either of the parties, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall thereafter be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder.

 

(d)   Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey, without the application of conflicts of law provisions thereof.

(g)   Waivers. No delays or omission by the Employer or the Executive in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of that or any other right. A waiver or consent given by the Employer or the Executive on any one occasion shall be effective only in that instance and shall not be construed as a bar or waiver of any right on any other occasion.

(i)    Enforceability.
