CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

   _______________ __, 2019 

$__________ 

Santa Ana, California

  

1. Principal and Interest.

 

1.1 TransBiotec, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company" or “Borrower”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of IDTEC, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the "Lender") the sum of ___________________________ dollars ($___________) at the time and in the manner hereinafter provided.

 

1.2 This Promissory Note (the "Note") shall bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum simple interest from the date of issuance of this Note until paid in full. No payment of principal under this Note shall be due until the earlier of (i) demand for payment from Lender, or (ii) that date upon which the Company shall have closed with Lender upon the proposed injection of assets into the Company by Lender (the earlier of said dates to be referred to herein as the "Demand Date") unless there is an Event of Default as described in Section 2 below, in which case such payment shall be accelerated. Commencing on the Demand Date, all principal and accrued but unpaid interest hereunder shall be payable upon demand. The parties agree that Lender may demand that interest be paid without demanding that principal be paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Note may be prepaid by the Company without penalty at any time. Any prepayment will be credited first against accrued interest then principal.

 

1.3 Upon payment in full of the principal hereof and accrued interest hereunder, this Note shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation.

 

1.4 The principal of and interest on this Note shall be payable at the principal office of the Company and shall be forwarded to the address of the Lender hereof as such Lender shall from time to time designate.

 

2. Event of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events (regardless of the reason therefor), shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:

 

(a) The Company shall fail to make any payment of principal of, or interest on, or any other amount owing in respect of, the Note when due and payable or declared due and payable, and such failure shall have remained unremedied for a period of five (5) business days.

 

 
38
 
 

 

(b) A case or proceeding shall have been commenced against the Company in a court having competent jurisdiction (i) seeking a decree or order in respect of the Company under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other applicable federal, state or foreign bankruptcy or other similar law, (ii) appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its properties, or (iii) ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Company, and any such case or proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed for sixty (60) consecutive days or such court shall enter a decree or order granting the relief sought in such case or proceeding.

 

(c) The Company shall (i) file a petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter amended, or any other applicable federal, state or foreign bankruptcy or other similar law, (ii) consent to the institution of proceedings thereunder or to the filing of any such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its properties, or (iii) fail generally to pay its debts as such debts become due.

 

(d) Final judgment or judgments (after the expiration of all times to appeal therefrom) for the payment of money in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate shall be rendered against the Company and the same shall not (i) be fully covered by insurance or bonded over, or (ii) within thirty (30) days after the entry thereof, have been discharged or execution thereof stayed pending appeal, or have been discharged within five (5) days after the expiration of any such stay.

 

(e) The Company breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition of this Note in any material respect.

 

(f) Any material representation or warranty of the Company made herein or in connection herewith shall be false or misleading in any material respect as of the date made.

 

3. Security. This Note shall be secured by a first priority security lien or security interest in the Company’s Patents, Trademarks, Tradenames and other intellectual property described in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The Company agrees to execute and deliver any and all documents, instruments, security agreements, pledge agreements, financing statements or other document or filings with the US Patent and Trademark office or any other governmental agency or authority.

 

4. Attorney's Fees. If the indebtedness represented by this Note or any part thereof is collected in bankruptcy, receivership or other judicial proceedings or if this Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for collection after default, the Company agrees to pay, in addition to the principal and interest payable hereunder, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred by the Lender.

 

5. No Prepayment. The Company shall not have any right to prepay this Note.

 

6. Conversion.

 

6.1 Voluntary Conversion. The Lender shall have the right, exercisable in whole or in part, to convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest hereunder into a number of fully paid and nonassessable whole shares of the Company's $0.001 par value common stock ("Common Stock") determined in accordance with Section 6.2 below upon written notice to the Company at any time beginning fifteen trading days after the closing of the asset purchase in which Lender will sell and the Company will buy the assets previously owned by Gamma 2 Robotics, Incorporated (the “Transaction”).

 

6.2 Shares Issuable The number of Company shares to be issued upon conversion of the Note shall be calculated by dividing the outstanding principal amount, plus any accrued interest due and owing on the Note, by fifty (50%) percent of the average closing price of the Company’s Common Stock in the over the counter market or on a listed exchange beginning 15 trading days following the closing of the Transaction. The average closing price will be determined by adding the closing prices for the Company’s common stock for ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding written notice of conversion by ten (10). For example, if the average closing price was $1.00 for that ten-day period, and the Principal of $100,000 plus accrued interest of $10,000 would be convertible into 220,000 Conversion Shares ($110,000 / (.5 X $1.00) = 220,000 shares).

 

 
39
 
 

 

6.3 Notice and Conversion Procedures. After receipt of demand for repayment, the Company agrees to give the Lender notice at least five (5) business days prior to the time that the Company repays this Note. If the Lender elects to convert this Note, the Lender shall provide the Company with a written notice of conversion setting forth the amount to be converted.

6.4 Anti-Dilution Provisions.

 

(a) Adjustments of Note Conversion Price. If the Company should at any time, or from time to time, during the term of this Note issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (other than the Conversion Shares which may be purchased upon conversion of the Notes, stock purchased pursuant to options, warrants and/or conversion rights outstanding as of the date of this Note and stock purchased pursuant to rights or options which may be granted to employees of the Company whether or not pursuant to a plan) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Note Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then forthwith upon such issue or sale, the Note Conversion Price shall be adjusted to a price (computed to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (i) the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale multiplied by the Note Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale, and (y) the consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issue or sale, by (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue or sale. For purposes of this subsection 6.4(a), the following provisions (1) to (5) shall also be applicable:

 

(1) Options. In case at any time hereafter the Company shall in any manner grant any right to subscribe for or to purchase, or any option for the purchase of Common Stock or any stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (such convertible or exchangeable stock or securities being hereinafter referred to as “Convertible Securities") other than the Notes and other than rights or options which may be granted to employees of the Company whether or not pursuant to a plan, and the minimum price per share for which Common Stock is issuable, pursuant to such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such rights or options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options, plus in the case of such Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration if any, payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or options or upon the conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options) shall be less than the Note Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of such rights or options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such rights or options shall (as of the date of granting of such rights or options) be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for said price per share as so determined; provided, that no further adjustment of the Note Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issue of Common Stock deemed to have been issued; and further provided, that, upon the expiration of such rights (including rights to convert or exchange) or options, (a) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued and outstanding by reason of the fact that they were issuable pursuant to such rights or options (including rights to convert or exchange) were not exercised, shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding, and (b) the Note Conversion Price shall forthwith be adjusted to the price which would have prevailed had all adjustments been made on the basis of the issue only of the shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the exercise of such rights or options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

(2) Convertible Securities. In case the Company shall in any manner, subsequent to issuance of this Note, issue or sell any Convertible Securities, and the minimum price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities (determined by dividing (i) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof, by (ii) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities) shall be less than the Note Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities shall (as of the date of the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities) be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued for said price per share as so determined; provided, that no further adjustment of the Note Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issue of Common Stock so deemed to have been issued, and, further provided, that if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any right to subscribe for or to purchase or any option to purchase any such Convertible Securities for which an adjustment of the Note Conversion Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this subsection 6.4(a) no further adjustment of the Note Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale; and, further provided. that, upon the termination of the right to convert or to exchange such Convertible Securities for Common Stock, (a) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued and outstanding by reason of the fact that they were issuable upon conversion or exchange of any such Convertible Securities, which were not so converted or exchanged, shall no longer be deemed to be issued and outstanding, and (b) the Note Conversion Price shall forthwith be adjusted to the price which would have prevailed had all adjustments been made on the basis of the issue only of the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(3) Determination of Issue Price. In case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any rights or options to purchase any such stock or securities shall be issued for cash, the consideration received therefor, after deducting therefrom any commission or other expenses paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof, shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Company therefor. in case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any rights or options to purchase any such stock or securities shall be issued for a consideration part or all of which shall be other than cash, then, for the purpose of this subsection 6.4 (a), the Board of Directors of the Company shall make a good faith determination of the fair value of such consideration, irrespective of accounting treatment, and such Common Stock, Convertible Securities, rights or options shall be deemed to have been issued for an amount of cash equal to the value so determined by the Board of Directors. The reclassification of securities other than Common Stock into securities including Common Stock shall be deemed to involve the issuance for a consideration other than cash of such Common Stock immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of security Lenders entitled to receive such Common Stock. In case any shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities or any rights or options to purchase any such stock or other securities shall be issued together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which includes both, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine what part of the consideration so received is to be deemed to be consideration for the issue of such shares of such Common Stock, Convertible Securities, rights or options.

 

(4) Determination of Date of Issue. In case the Company shall take a record of the Lenders of any Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (i) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock or in Convertible Securities, or (ii) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities, then such record date shall be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

 

(5) Treasury Shares. For the purpose of this subsection 6.4(a), shares of Common Stock at any relevant time owned or held by or for the account of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding.

 

(b) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Anything in this Section 6.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, in case the Company shall at any time issue Common Stock or Convertible Securities by way of dividend or other distribution on any stock of the Company or subdivide or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Note Conversion Price shall be proportionately decreased in the case of such issuance (on the day following the date fixed for determining shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution) or decreased in the case of such subdivision or increased in the case of such combination (on the date that such subdivision or combination shall become effective).

 

(c) No Adjustment for Small Amounts. Anything in this Section 6.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to give effect to any adjustment in the Note Conversion Price unless and until the net effect of one or more adjustments, determined as above provided, shall have required a change of the Note Conversion Price by at least one cent, but when the cumulative net effect of more than one adjustment so determined shall be to change the actual Note Conversion Price by at least one cent, such change in the Note Conversion Price shall thereupon be given effect.

 

(d) Number of Shares Adjusted. Upon any adjustment of the Note Conversion Price, the Lender shall thereafter (until another such adjustment) be entitled to purchase, at the new Note Conversion Price, the number of shares, calculated to the nearest full share, obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of this Note by the Note Conversion Price in effect on the date hereof and dividing the product so obtained by the new Note Conversion Price.

 

(e) Common Stock Defined. Whenever reference is made in this Section 6.4 to the issue or sale of shares of Common Stock, the term "Common Stock” shall mean the Common Stock of the Company, if the Common Stock shall be divided into classes, and if not so divided, then the Common Stock of the Company of the class authorized as of the date hereof, and any other class of stock ranking on a parity with such Common Stock. Shares issuable upon conversion hereof shall include only shares of the class designated as Common Stock of the Company as of the date hereof, or as Common Stock if the Common Stock shall have been divided into classes as of the date hereof.

 

 
41
 
 

 

6.5 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of the Company issuing any fractional shares to the Lender upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay to the Lender the amount of outstanding principal and interest hereunder that is not so converted.

 

7. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company. The Company represents, warrants and covenants with the Lender as follows:

As used in this Employment Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company and any successor to its business and/or assets by operation of law, or otherwise.

 

9. Indemnification.

 

If Executive is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (herein a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he is or was an employee (which term includes officer, director, agent and any other capacity) of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as an employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as an employee or agent, Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by applicable law, against all expense, liability and loss (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by Executive in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to Executive after he has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of Executive’s heir, executors, and administrators for the applicable statute of limitations; provided, however, that the Company shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by Executive (other than a proceeding to enforce this paragraph 9) only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized directly or indirectly by the Company’s Board. The right to indemnification conferred in this paragraph shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be, promptly upon request, paid by the Company the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that if the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware requires the payment of such expenses incurred by an employee in his capacity as an employee (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, payment shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking, by or on behalf of Executive, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that Executive is not entitled to be indemnified under this paragraph or otherwise.

The obligations in this Section shall extend during the Employment Period and for three years after the termination of the Employment Period. The Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section by the Executive, and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach, but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity to the Company, including, without limitation, the recovery of damages from the Executive and his agents involved in such breach.

EXHIBIT “B”

 

EMPLOYEE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT

 

In consideration of my employment or continued employment by Transbiotec, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the compensation now and hereafter paid to me, I hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Nondisclosure

 

1.1 Recognition of Company’s Rights; Nondisclosure. At all times during my employment and thereafter (and for purposes of this Agreement, any reference to any period of employment shall also include any other provision of services to the Company, directly or indirectly), I will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon or publish any of the Company’s Proprietary Information (defined below), except as such disclosure, use or publication may be required in connection with my work for the Company, or unless an officer of the Company expressly authorizes such in writing. I will obtain Company’s written approval before publishing or submitting for publication any material (written, verbal, or otherwise) that relates to my work at Company and/or incorporates any Proprietary Information. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that all Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company and its assigns.

 

1.2 Proprietary Information. The term “Proprietary Information” shall mean any and all confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information of the Company. By way of illustration but not limitation, “Proprietary Information” includes (a) trade secrets, inventions, mask works, ideas, samples, procedures and formulations for producing any such samples, media and/or processes, data, formulae, methods, software, source and object codes, programs, other works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, developmental or experimental work, designs, and techniques (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Inventions”); (b) information regarding the operation of the Company, products, services, plans for research and development, marketing and business plans, budgets, accounts, financial statements, licenses, licensors, licensees, contracts, prices and costs, suppliers, and current or potential customers; (c) information regarding the skills, tasks and compensation of Company’s employees, contractors, and any other service providers of Company; and (d) the existence of any business discussions, negotiations, or agreements between Company and any third party.

 

1.3 Third Party Information. I understand, in addition, that the Company has received and, in the future, will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company's part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the term of my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than Company personnel who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company) or use, except in connection with my work for the Company, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by an officer of the Company in writing.

 

1.4 No Improper Use of Information of Prior Employers and Others. During my employment by the Company I will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employer or any other person to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality, and I will not bring onto the premises of the Company any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by that former employer or person. I will use in the performance of my duties only information which is generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to my own, which is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain, or which is otherwise provided or developed by the Company.

 

 
57
 
 

 

2. Assignment of Inventions.

 

2.1 Proprietary Rights. The term “Proprietary Rights” shall mean all trade secrets, know-how, patents, patent rights, copyrights, trademarks, service masks, logos, domain names, mask work and any and all other intellectual property rights throughout the world.

 

2.2 Prior Inventions. Inventions, if any, patented or unpatented, which I made prior to the commencement of my employment with the Company are excluded from the scope of this Agreement. To preclude any possible uncertainty, I have set forth on Exhibit A (Previous Inventions) attached hereto a complete list of all Inventions that I have, alone or jointly with others, conceived, developed or reduced to practice or caused to be conceived, developed or reduced to practice prior to the commencement of my employment with the Company, that I consider to be my property or the property of third parties and that I wish to have excluded from the scope of this Agreement (collectively referred to as “Prior Inventions”). If disclosure of any such Prior Invention would cause me to violate any prior confidentiality agreement, I understand that I am not to list such Prior Inventions in Exhibit A but am only to disclose a cursory name for each such invention, a listing of the party(ies) to whom it belongs and the fact that full disclosure as to such inventions has not been made for that reason. A space is provided on Exhibit A for such purpose. If no such disclosure is attached, I represent that there are no Prior Inventions. If, in the course of my employment with the Company, I incorporate a Prior Invention into a Company product, process or machine, the Company is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sub-licensees) to make, have made, modify, use and sell such Prior Invention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I agree that I will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, Prior Inventions in any Company Inventions without the Company’s prior written consent.

 

2.2.1 Prior Items of Commercial Value

Any relationships, information, or items (“Prior Items”) other than specific inventions identified in section 2.2 that I possessed prior to the commencement of my employment with the Company that are related or material to the Company’s business are excluded from the scope of this Agreement unless otherwise set forth in Exhibit B. For the avoidance of uncertainty, I have set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein a complete list of all such Prior Items that I consider to be my property. I have further set forth in Exhibit B for each such Prior Item my wish to (i) retain possession of it, or (ii) license it to the Company, or (iii) grant all right, title and interest in it to the Company in consideration of my employment with the Company. I represent and warrant that I own all rights and / or have been granted permissions through licensing or otherwise for all Prior Items set forth in Exhibit B. I further warrant and represent that any grant of right, title or interest in or pursuant to Exhibit B results in no violation of prior contractual or other obligations such as fiduciary duties or otherwise. If there are no such Prior Items set forth or attached, I represent that there are no Prior Items. If, in the course of my employment with the Company, I incorporate a Prior Item into a Company product, process or machine, the Company is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sub-licensees) to make, have made, modify, use and sell such Prior Item. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I agree that I will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, Prior Items in any Company Inventions without the Company’s prior written consent.

 

2.3 Assignment of Inventions. Subject to Sections 2.4, and 2.6, I hereby assign and agree to assign in the future (when any such Inventions or Proprietary Rights are first reduced to practice or first fixed in a tangible medium, as applicable) to the Company all my right, title and interest in and to any and all Inventions (and all Proprietary Rights with respect thereto) whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment with the Company. Inventions assigned to the Company, or to a third party as directed by the Company pursuant to this Section 2, are hereinafter referred to as “Company Inventions.” 2.3.1 Assignment of Prior Items. I hereby assign to the Company all my right, title and interest in any and all Prior Items for which I have specified my wish to grant such right, title and interest in such Prior Items to the Company in Exhibit B.

 

2.4 Non-assignable Inventions. This Agreement does not apply to an Invention which qualifies fully as a non-assignable Invention under applicable law.


 
58
 
 

 

2.5 Obligation to Keep Company Informed. During the period of my employment and for six (6) months after termination of my employment with the Company, I will promptly disclose to the Company fully and in writing all Inventions authored, conceived or reduced to practice by me, either alone or jointly with others. In addition, I will promptly disclose to the Company all patent applications filed by me or on my behalf within a year after termination of employment. At the time of each such disclosure, I will advise the Company in writing of any Inventions that I believe fully qualify for protection under applicable law; and I will at that time provide to the Company in writing all evidence necessary to substantiate that belief. The Company will keep in confidence and will not use for any purpose or disclose to third parties without my consent any confidential information disclosed in writing to the Company pursuant to this Agreement relating to Inventions that qualify fully for protection under the applicable law. I will preserve the confidentiality of any Invention that does not fully qualify for protection under applicable law.

 

2.6 Government or Third Party. I also agree to assign all my right, title and interest in and to any particular Company Invention to a third party, including without limitation the United States, as directed by the Company.

 

2.7 Works for Hire. I acknowledge that all original works of authorship which are made by me (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of my employment and which are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire,” pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section 101).

 

2.8 Enforcement of Proprietary Rights. I will assist the Company in every proper way to obtain, and from time to time enforce, United States and foreign Proprietary Rights relating to Company Inventions in any and all countries. To that end I will execute, verify and deliver such documents and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Company may reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing, sustaining and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, I will execute, verify and deliver assignments of such Proprietary Rights to the Company or its designee. My obligation to assist the Company with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Company Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of my employment, but the Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for the time actually spent by me at the Company’s request on such assistance.

 

In the event the Company is unable for any reason, after reasonable effort, to secure my signature on any document needed in connection with the actions or assignments specified in the preceding paragraph or in paragraph 2.3.1, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as my agent and attorney in fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to act for and in my behalf to execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the preceding paragraph and paragraph 2.3.1 with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me. I hereby waive and quitclaim to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which I now or may hereafter have for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to the Company.

 

3. Records. I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current records (in the form of notes, sketches, drawings and in any other form that may be required by the Company) of all Proprietary Information developed by me and all Inventions made by me during the period of my employment at the Company, which records shall be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times.

 

4. Additional Activities. I agree that during the period of my employment by the Company I will not, without the Company’s express written consent, engage in any employment or business activity which is competitive with, or would otherwise conflict with, my employment by the Company. I agree further that for the period of my employment by the Company and for one (l) year after the date of termination of my employment by the Company I will not, either directly or through others, solicit or attempt to solicit any employee, independent contractor or consultant of the company to terminate his or her relationship with the Company in order to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to or for any other person or entity.

 

5. No Conflicting Obligation. I represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement and as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence information acquired by me in confidence or in trust prior to my employment by the Company. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith.

 

 
59
 
 

 

6. Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation. I agree and covenant that I will not at any time during employment with the Company and for one (1) year following termination of employment with the Company, however such termination is effected, engage in any of the following actions:

 

6.1 directly or indirectly work or otherwise perform services in the United States of America (whether as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, associate, employee, consultant, owner, agent, creditor, or other capacity) for any person or entity which in any way competes with the business of the Company; competition with the Company shall include, but not be limited to, any business which engages in the development, building, implementation, promotion or sales of robots for the security industry;

 

6.2 solicit any employees, independent contractors, or consultants of the Company to leave the Company for other employment or for any other reason;

 

6.3 hire or assist any other person or entity in hiring any employee, independent contractor, or consultant of the Company to engage in competition with the Company; or

 

6.4 solicit or attempt to take away from the Company any of the customers served by the Company at any time within two (2) years prior to termination of my employment with the Company, seek to cause any such customers to refrain from doing business with the Company, or assist any other person or entity in so doing.

 

7. REASONABLENESS OF RESTRICTIONS.

 

7.1 I agree that I have read this entire Agreement and understand it. I agree that this Agreement does not prevent me from earning a living or pursuing my career. I agree that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable, proper, and necessitated by the Company’s legitimate business interests. I represent and agree that I am entering into this Agreement freely and with knowledge of its contents with the intent to be bound by the Agreement and the restrictions contained in it.

 

7.2 In the event that a court finds this Agreement, or any of its restrictions, to be ambiguous, unenforceable, or invalid, I and the Company agree that the court shall read the Agreement as a whole and interpret the restriction(s) at issue to be enforceable and valid to the maximum extent allowed by law.

 

7.3 If the court declines to enforce this Agreement in the manner provided in subsection 7.2, I and the Company agree that this Agreement will be automatically modified to provide the Company with the maximum protection of its business interests allowed by law and I agree to be bound by this Agreement as modified.

 

8. Return of Company Documents. When I leave the employ of the Company, I will deliver to the Company any and all drawings, notes, memoranda, specifications, devices, formulas, and documents, together with all copies thereof, and any other material containing or disclosing any Company Inventions, Third Party Information or Proprietary Information of the Company. I further agree that any property situated on the Company’s premises and owned by the Company, including disks and other storage media, filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject to inspection by Company personnel at any time with or without notice. Prior to leaving, I will cooperate with the Company in completing and signing the Company’s termination statement.

 

9. Legal and Equitable Remedies. Because my services are personal and unique and because I may have access to and become acquainted with the Proprietary Information of the Company, the Company shall have the right to enforce this Agreement and any of its provisions by injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief, without bond and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies that the Company may have for a breach of this Agreement.

12. General Provisions.

 

12.1 Governing Law; Consent to Personal Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Colorado, as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Colorado.

 

12.2 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. If moreover, any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear.

12.5 Employment. I agree and understand that nothing in this Agreement shall confer any right with respect to continuation of employment by the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with my right or the Company’s right to terminate my employment at any time, with or without cause.

 

12.6 Waiver. No waiver by the Company of any breach of this Agreement shall be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach. No waiver by the Company of any right under this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any other right. The Company shall not be required to give notice to enforce strict adherence to all terms of this Agreement.

12.8 Entire Agreement. The obligations pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 of this Agreement shall apply to any time during which I was previously employed, or am in the future employed, by the Company as a consultant if no other agreement governs nondisclosure and assignment of inventions during such period. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof except for any employment contract signed by me and the Company containing provisions restricting the use of confidential information. Except for the foregoing, this Agreement supersedes and merges all prior discussions between us with respect to the subject matter hereto, including, but not limited to, any prior agreement between the Company and me with respect to the assignment of proprietary information to the Company. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party to be charged. Any subsequent change or changes in my duties, salary or compensation will not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement.

 

This Agreement shall be effective as of the first day of my employment with the Company, namely.

 

I have read this Agreement carefully and understand its terms. I have completely filled out Exhibit A to this Agreement.
