EMPLOYMENT. The Company hereby employs Employee, and Employee hereby agrees to be employed by the Company and to serve the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 2. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. 2.1. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF EMPLOYMENT "AT-WILL". Notwithstanding any provision of this or any other Agreement, Employee's employment is "at-will" and, accordingly, either Employee or the Company may terminate at any time and for any reason Employee's employment with the Company. No provision of this Agreement shall entitle Employee to remain in the employment of the Company or affect the right of the Company or Employee to terminate the Employee's employment at any time or for any reason, 2.2.

Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement by either party hereto for any reason, the obligations of Employee under Section 3 hereof and the other provisions thereof shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement and/or the duration of Employee's employment with the Company (the "EMPLOYMENT TERM") and shall remain in full force and effect for the period provided therein. 3. COVENANTS. 37 In consideration of the compensation to be paid to Employee by the Company, Employee hereby makes the following covenants to the Company: 3.1. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. During the Employment Term and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, or for so long as Employee owns stock in the Company, whichever is later, (the "Post-Employment Period"), Employee shall not, alone or together or in association with others, whether as owner, shareholder, employee, officer, director, partner, manager, member, lender, investor, consultant, principal, agent, independent contractor, co-venturer or in any other capacity, directly or indirectly, invest in, engage in, have a financial interest in or be in any way connected or affiliated with, or render advice or service to, any person, firm, enterprise or other business that is in competition with the Company. (a) COMPETITION WITH THE COMPANY. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the phrase "in competition with the Company" shall be deemed to include competition with the Company and its subsidiaries, or its respective successors or assigns, or the businesses of any of them, and (ii) a business shall be deemed to be in competition with the Company if it is engaged in any business activity or has products or services that are the same or similar to the business activities, products or services of the Company from time to time in any geographic area in which the Company is conducting or has conducted business at any time during the Employment Term in Jamaica, West Indies.

(b) INTERPRETATION OF COVENANT. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the duration and area for which the covenant not to compete set forth in this Section 3.1 is to be effective are fair and reasonable and are reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company and its business and good will, and Employee hereby waives any objections to or defenses in respect thereof. In the event that any court determines that any portion of the time period or the area, or both of them, are unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy, and that such covenant is to such extent unenforceable, illegal or invalid, the parties hereto agree that this Section 3.1 shall be deemed amended to delete there from such provisions or portions adjudicated to be unenforceable, illegal or invalid so that the covenant shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest time period and in the greatest geographical area that would render it enforceable, legal and valid. The parties intend that the covenant set forth in this Section 3.1 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 one for each and every political subdivision of each and every other country where the covenant is intended to be effective and is not proscribed by law. 3.2. COVENANT REGARDING DISCLOSURE OR USE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

Employee therefore expressly agrees that, in addition to any other rights or remedies which the Company may have at law or in equity or by reason of any other agreement, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief in the form of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctions without posting bond or other security in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any such obligation by Employee and without the necessity of proving actual damages, and to discontinue any salary, bonus, benefits and/or insurance continuation provided hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit the Company from pursuing any other remedy, and the Employee agrees that all remedies of the Company are cumulative. 3.6. NATURE OF COVENANTS. Employee's covenants in Section 3 hereof are independent covenants, and the existence of any claim by Employee against the Company under this Agreement or otherwise will not excuse Employee's breach or waive Employee's obligation to perform, any covenant in Section 3 hereof. If Employee's employment with the Company terminates for any reason, the terms and conditions of this Agreement necessary or appropriate to enforce the covenants of Employee in Section 3, shall survive and remain in full force and effect. 4. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE OF ASSETS.

SEVERABILITY. The invalidity, illegally or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any circumstance shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other circumstance or any other provision of this Agreement, and such provision in any other circumstance and each such other provision of this Agreement shall, to the full extent consistent with applicable law, continue in full force and effect. 9.
