Employee agrees that Employee will deliver all of the aforementioned documents and objects that may be in Employee’s possession to the Company on the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, or at any other time upon the Company’s request.

     4.3 Nondisclosure Covenant. Employee recognizes that by virtue of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee will be granted otherwise prohibited access to trade secrets and other confidential and proprietary information that is not known to its competitors or within the industry generally, that was developed by the Company over a long period of time and/or at substantial expense, and which is confidential in nature or otherwise of great competitive value to the Company. This information (“Confidential and Proprietary Information”) includes, but is not limited to, the Company’s trade secrets; information relating to the Company’s production practices and methods of doing business; sales, marketing, and service strategies, programs, and procedures; contract expiration dates, customers and prospective customers, including, but not limited to, their particularized requirements and preferences, and the identity, authority, and responsibilities of their key contact persons; payment methods; service and product costs; pricing structures and incentive plans; vendors; financial position and business plans; computer programs and databases; research projects; new product and service developments; and any other information of the Company or any of its vendors or customers that the Company informs Employee, or which Employee should know by virtue of Employee’s position or the circumstances in which Employee learned it, is to be kept confidential.

statutory or common law obligation). Employee agrees that during the Employment Period and at all times thereafter (a) Employee will not disclose, use or permit others to use any Confidential and Proprietary Information, or otherwise make use of any of it for Employee’s own purposes or the purposes of another, except as required in the course of Employee’s employment for the benefit of the Company or as required by law, and (b) Employee will take all reasonable measures, in accordance with the Company’s policies, procedures, and instructions, to protect the Confidential and Proprietary Information from any accidental or unauthorized disclosure or use.

     4.4 Noninterference Covenant. Employee agrees that during the Employment Period and for the Restricted Period, Employee will not, for any reason, directly or indirectly solicit, hire, or otherwise do any act or thing which may induce any other Employee of the Company (who is employed by the Company at the end of the Employee’s employment with the Company) to leave the employ of the Company. “Restricted Period” means (i) the Employment Period and (ii) the two (2) year period following the termination of Employee’s employment.

     4.5 Covenant of Nonsolicitation of Customers. Employee acknowledges the Company’s legitimate interest in protecting its customers for a reasonable period of time following the termination of Employee’s employment. Accordingly, Employee agrees that during the Restricted Period, Employee will not: (a) directly or indirectly, solicit or accept business from, or provide products or services to, any Customer, where such business, products or services would be competitive with the Company’s business, products or services, or (b) do any act or thing which may interfere with or adversely affect the relationship (contractual or otherwise) of the Company with any Customer or vendor of the Company or induce any such Customer or vendor to cease doing business with the Company. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “Customer” means (i) a customer of the Company to which Employee sold or provided the Company’s products or services at any time during the two (2) year period immediately preceding the termination of Employee’s employment, (ii) any entity for which Employee orchestrated, developed, supervised, coordinated or participated in marketing strategy, marketing plans and marketing campaigns on behalf of the Company at any time during the two (2) year period immediately preceding the termination of Employee’s employment, or (iii) any entity as to which Employee acquired Confidential and Proprietary Information at any time during Employee’s employment with the Company.

     4.6. Remedies for Breach. Employee recognizes that the rights and privileges granted to Employee by this Agreement, and Employee’s corresponding covenants to the Company, are of a special, unique, and extraordinary character, the loss of which cannot reasonably or adequately be compensated for in damages in any action at law or through the offset or withholding of any monies to which Employee might be entitled from the Company. Accordingly, Employee understands and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order and preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, to prevent or enjoin a breach of this Agreement. Employee also understands and agrees that any such equitable relief shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other relief to which the Company may be entitled.

The Change of Control Severance Benefit shall be paid six (6) months from the date Employee’s employment with the Company terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if and to the extent that any payments and rights provided under this Agreement would cause Employee to be subject to excise tax under Section 280G or Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, or the corresponding section(s) of any future federal tax law, then the amount of the payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of any such excise tax. All determinations of the amount of the reduction shall be made by the Company’s tax counsel, and the cost of making such determination shall be paid by the Company.

     (d) Cessation of Entitlements and Company Right of Offset.

GENERAL

     6.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Illinois without regard to any choice of law or conflicts of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdiction), irrespective of the fact that Employee may become a resident of a different state.

     6.2 Binding Effect. The Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns, and Employee and Employee’s executors, administrators, personal representatives and heirs.

     6.3 Assignment. Employee expressly agrees for Employee and on behalf of Employee’s executors, administrators and heirs, that this Agreement and Employee’s obligations, rights, interests and

benefits hereunder shall not be assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in any way by Employee, Employee’s executors, administrators or heirs, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempt to assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this Agreement or any such rights, interests and benefits thereunder contrary to the foregoing provisions, or the levy of any attachment or similar process thereupon shall be null and void and without effect and shall relieve the Company of any and all liability hereunder. This Agreement shall be assignable and transferable by the Company (but the Company shall not be required to assign or transfer this Agreement) to any successor in interest without the consent of Employee.

     6.4 Complete Understanding. This Agreement constitutes the complete understanding among the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings relating to the employment of Employee by the Company, including without limitation any prior compensation plans or compensation agreements entered into between Employee and the Company.

     6.5 Tax Provisions.

     (a) Compliance With Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of section 409 A of Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), so as to prevent the inclusion in gross income of any amounts payable or benefits provided hereunder in a taxable year that is prior to the taxable year or years in which such amounts or benefits would otherwise actually be distributed, provided or otherwise made available to Employee. This Agreement shall be construed, administered, and governed in a manner consistent with this intent. Any provision that would cause any amount payable or benefit provided under this Agreement to be includable in the gross income of Employee under Code section 409A(a)(l) shall have no force and effect unless and until amended to cause such amount or benefit to not be so includable (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Code section 409A and may be made by Company without the consent of Employee). In particular, to the extent Employee becomes entitled to receive a payment or a benefit upon an event that does not constitute a permitted distribution event under Code section 409A(a)(2), then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such payment or benefit will be made or provided to Employee on the earlier of (i) Employee’s “separation from service” with Company (determined in accordance with Code section 409 A); provided however, that if Employee is a “specified Employee” (within the meaning of Code section 409A), Employee’s date of payment shall be made on the date which is 6 months after the date of Employee’s separation of service with Company or (ii) Employee’s death. Any reference in this Agreement to Code section 409A shall also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with respect to such section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.

     (b) Compliance With Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company reasonably anticipates that the deduction of any payment to Employee hereunder will be limited or eliminated by the application of Code section 162(m), which generally limits the deduction of compensation paid by public corporations in excess of $1 million annually to certain executives, such payment shall be delayed until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the deduction of the payment would not be limited or eliminated by the application of Code section 162(m) or the calendar year during which the Employee’s employment with the Company terminates.

     6.6 Amendments. No change, modification or amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by all of the parties hereto.

     6.7 Waiver. The waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by Employee shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by Employee. The waiver by Employee of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Company shall not operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach by the Company.

     6.8 Venue, Jurisdiction, Etc. Employee hereby agrees that any suit, action or proceeding relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit, DuPage County, State of Illinois or in the District Court of the United States of America for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, and in either case Employee hereby submits to the jurisdiction of each such court. Employee hereby waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any right of removal, any claim that Employee is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Employee consents and agrees to service of process or other legal summons for purpose of any such suit, action or proceeding by registered mail addressed to Employee at Employee’s address listed in the business records of the Company. Employee and the Company do each hereby waive any right to trial by jury that Employee or it may have concerning any matter relating to this Agreement.

     6.9 Indemnification of Employee. Employee is hereby entitled to indemnification for Employee’s acts or omissions in Employee’s capacity as an Employee or officer of the Company to the same extent as the Company’s other senior Employees and in the manner provided by the Company’s bylaws.

     6.10 Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. The Company shall maintain adequate Directors and Officers liability insurance coverage, which shall include Executive in Executive’s capacity as an Officer. The adequacy of the Directors and Officers liability insurance coverage shall be determined annually by the Board of Directors at its reasonable discretion.

     6.11 Severability. If any portion of this Agreement shall be for any reason, invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portion or portions shall nevertheless be valid, enforceable and carried into effect.

     6.12 Headings. The headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions hereof.

     6.13 Notices.
