The payments provided for in this Section 3(a), whether or not payable in a particular circumstance, shall be in lieu of all other payments and all other rights to receive payments to which the Consultant may be entitled under this Agreement or under federal or state law and shall constitute a full satisfaction and discharge of any claims by the Consultant related to this Agreement or the circumstances surrounding the termination of his engagement hereunder.

(b)

Confidentiality.  Consultant acknowledges that, upon execution of this Agreement and by reason of his service to the Company, Consultant will have come into possession or will have acquired knowledge of or contribute to the development of confidential information of the Company.

(c)

Scope.  The restrictions and limitations contained in this Section are reasonable as to scope and duration and are necessary in part to protect the Company’s proprietary interest in its Confidential Information and to preserve for the Company the competitive advantage derived from maintaining that information as secret.  In the event that any of the restrictions and limitations contained in this Section are deemed to exceed the time or geographic limitations permitted by applicable law, then such provisions of this Section shall be reformed to the maximum time or maximum geographic limitations permitted by applicable law.

(d)

Breach.  Consultant acknowledges and agree that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to the Company if Consultant should breach any of the terms of this Section.  Accordingly, if any action or proceeding is instituted by or on behalf of the Company to enforce any term of this Section, Consultant hereby agrees to waive any claim or defense that the Company has an adequate remedy by law or that the Company has not been nor is not then irreparably harmed as a result of the breach, or the necessity of the posting of any bond. The rights and remedies of the Company pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative, in addition to and shall not be deemed to exclude any other right or remedy which the Company may have pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the rights and remedies available to the Company under any of the laws of the State of New York.

(g) Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall there be any estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement, except by written instrument of the party charged with such waiver or estoppel. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shalloperate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived.

(g) Governing Law. The validity, construction, enforcement of and the remedies under this Agreement shall be governed in accordance with the laws of New York, without regard to its choice of law provisions.

(h) Headings. The section headings used herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

(i) Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Consultant and the Company, and the Company’s successors and assigns. The rights and obligations hereunder are also being granted for the benefit of any subsidiaries of the Company, and such rights and obligations may be enforced by a subsidiary of the Company.

(k) Construction. Each of the parties hereto declare that they or their counsel participated in the drafting of this Agreement and that, accordingly, this Agreement shall not be construed more strongly against any party hereto because it drafted this Agreement.

(l) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more of the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any part of any provision, all of which are inserted conditionally on their being valid in law, and in the event that any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses or sections contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable word or words, phrase or phrases, sentence or sentences, clause or clauses, or section or sections had not been inserted or shall be enforced as nearly as possible according to their original terms and intent to eliminate any invalidity or unenforceability. If any invalidity or unenforceability is caused by the length of any period of time or the size of any area set forth in any part of this Agreement, the period of time or area, or both, shall be considered to be reduced to a period or area which would cure the invalidity or unenforceability.

(m) Remedies. Unless otherwise specified herein, no remedy conferred upon either party to this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Every power or remedy given by this Agreement to any party or to which such party may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised concurrently or independently, from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient and inconsistent remedies may be pursued. Because a breach of the provisions of this Agreement will not adequately be compensated by money damages, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other right or remedy available, to an injunction restraining such breach or a threatened breach and to specific performance of any such provision of this Agreement and in either case no bond or other security shall be required in connection therewith, and the parties hereby consent to the issuance of such injunction and to the ordering of specific performance.
