Shareholder will confirm any such waivers and consents from time to time as requested by the Company.

(d) Shareholder shall not incorporate into any Development any discovery, process, design, software code, technology, device, or improvement in any of the foregoing or other ideas, whether or not patentable and whether or not reduced to practice, made or conceived by him (whether solely or jointly with others) which does not result from any work performed by him for the Company or which Shareholder made prior to employment by the Company (“Other Inventions”).

(e) If the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure his signature on any application for patent, copyright, trademark or other analogous registration or other documents regarding any legal protection relating to a Development, whether because of his or her physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason whatsoever, Shareholder hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as his agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in his behalf and stead to execute and file any such application or applications or other documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patent, copyright or trademark registrations or any other legal protection thereon with the same legal force and e ffect as if executed by him.
