Non-Competition and Business Opportunities. (a) Non-Competition. The Employee agrees that during the period of his employment hereunder and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, the Employee will not directly or indirectly: (i) market, sell or perform services such as are offered or conducted by the Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries during the period of his employment, to any customer or client of the Company, or "Prospective Customer" or client of the Company; or (ii) engage, directly or indirectly, whether as principal or as agent, officer, director, employee, consultant, shareholder, or otherwise, alone or in association with any other person, corporation or other entity, in any "Competing Business". For the purpose of this Section 5(a) "Prospective Customer" shall mean any person with whom the Company during the 12 months preceding the date of the Employee's termination of employment hereunder has entered into formal negotiations for a contract and/or has indicated in any written documentation an intent to do business with the Company. For purposes of this Section 5(a), the term "shareholder" shall exclude Employee to the extent the Employee owns less than ten percent (10%) of any public company's outstanding Common Stock. For the further purposes of this Agreement, the term "Competing Business" shall mean all activities and services similar to those conducted or provided by the Company in connection with the Company's CARExpress Health Savings Network. Due to the nature of the markets served and the products and services to be developed and marketed by the Company that are intended to be available on a national basis, the restrictions set forth in this Section 5(a) cannot be limited to a specific geographic area within the United States. (b) Business Opportunities. The Employee agrees that during the period of his employment hereunder, the Employee will not take personal advantage of any business opportunities that are similar or substantially similar to the present business of the Company. In addition, all material facts regarding any such business opportunities must be promptly and fully disclosed by the Employee to the board of directors as soon as the Employee becomes aware of any opportunity, and in no event later than forty-eight (48) hours after learning of such opportunity. Business opportunities covered by this Section 5(b) shall include, but are not limited to, opportunities directly relating to any activities or services similar to those conducted or provided by the Company in connection with the Company's CARExpress Health Savings Network. 6 (c) Non-Solicitation. The Employee agrees that during the period of employment hereunder and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, the Employee will not request or otherwise attempt to induce or influence, directly or indirectly, any present customer, distributor or supplier, or Prospective Customer, distributor or supplier, of the Company, or other persons sharing a business relationship with the Company to cancel, to limit or postpone their business with the Company, or otherwise take action that might be to the material disadvantage of the Company. The Employee agrees that during the period of employment hereunder and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Employee will not hire or solicit for employment, directly or indirectly, or induce or actively attempt to influence, hire or solicit, any employee, agent, officer, director, contractor, consultant or other business associate of the Company to terminate his or her employment or discontinue such person's consultant, contractor or other business association with the Company. (d) Nondisparagement. Each of the Employee and the Company (for purposes hereof, the Company shall mean only the executive officers and directors thereof and not any other employees) agrees not to make any public statements that disparage the other party, or in the case of the Company, its respective affiliates, employees, officers, directors, products or services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, statements made in the course of sworn testimony in administrative, judicial or arbitral proceedings (including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings) shall not be subject to this Section 5(d). (e) Scope. The parties hereto agree that, due to the nature of the Company's business, the duration and scope of the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions set forth above are reasonable. In the event that any court determines that the duration or the geographic scope, or both, are unreasonable and that such provisions are to that extent unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that such provisions shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and in the greatest area that would not render it unenforceable. The parties intend that the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions herein shall be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each and every county of each and every state of the United States of America and each and every political subdivision of each and every country outside the United States of America where this provision is intended to be effective. The Employee agrees that damages are an inadequate remedy for any breach of such provisions and that the Company shall, whether or not it is pursuing any potential remedies at law, be entitled to seek in any court of competent jurisdiction, equitable relief in the form of preliminary and permanent injunctions without bond or other security upon any actual or threatened breach of either of these competition provisions. 7 6.

Employment Dispute Settlement Procedure / Waiver of Rights. (a) The Employee and the Company each agree that, in the event either party (or its representatives, successors or assigns) brings an action in a court of competent jurisdiction relating to the Employee's recruitment, employment with, or termination of employment from the Company, each party in such action agrees to waive his, her or its right to a trial by jury, and further agrees that no demand, request or motion will be made for trial by jury.
