  2.2 In case the Employee chooses a managers’ insurance policy (and not a pension fund), and if, due to Employee’s personal reasons, an allocation of 1.5% (from the above 6.5% allocated to the pension savings component) shall not be sufficient for purchasing disability insurance to cover 75% of the Salary, the Company shall contribute an additional allocation that shall be no more than 1% of the Salary. In such case, the disability cost will not exceed 2.5% of the Salary, so that Company’s provident contributions shall be no less than 5%, and together- no more than 7.5%.

However, in no event will such Service Invention become the property of the Employee and the provisions contained in Section 132(b) of the Patent Law shall not apply unless the Company provides in writing otherwise. The Employee will not be entitled to royalties or other payment with regard to any Company Inventions, Service Inventions or any of the intellectual property rights set forth above, including any commercialization of such Company Inventions, Service Inventions or other intellectual property rights and the Employee hereby explicitly, irrevocably and unconditionally waives the right to receive any such additional royalties, consideration or other payments. Without derogating from the aforesaid, it is hereby clarified that the level of Employee’s compensation and consideration has been established based upon the aforementioned waiver of rights to receive any such additional royalties, consideration or other payments, and that the Employee’s compensation as an employee of the Company includes the full and final compensation and consideration to which the Employee may be entitled under law with respect to any Company Inventions, Service Inventions, or other intellectual property rights. This clause constitutes an express waiver of Employee’s rights under Section 132 of the Patent Law.

 

  3.8. Without derogating from the provisions of this Section 3, it is clarified that the Employee conclusively and irrevocably agrees that under no circumstances shall the Employee be entitled to take any measures whatsoever against the Company, directly or indirectly, alone or through a representative, whether legal or otherwise, where the remedy sought, whether as the principal remedy or as a secondary remedy, is a restraining order and/or an injunction and/or a specific performance order and/or any other remedy which entails placing a limitation on the use by the Company or anyone on its behalf of the Inventions (hereinafter – “Operative Orders”). It is clarified that the Employee shall not under any circumstances be entitled to obtain Operative Orders, whether all or some, against the Company or anyone on its behalf, in an action or any other proceeding initiated by the Employee or someone on his behalf against the Company, the foregoing whether it is alleged (contrary to this Proprietary Information, Assignment of Inventions and Non-Competition Agreement and in breach of it) that the Employee supposedly has rights in the Inventions, or whether it is alleged that there is an entitlement to remedies based on other grounds.

 

  4. Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation

 

  4.1. In consideration of the Employee’s terms of employment hereunder, which include special compensation for the Employee’s undertakings under this Section 4.1 and the following Section 4.2, and in order to enable the Company to effectively protect its Proprietary Information, the Employee agrees and undertakes that he will not, so long as the Agreement is in effect and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination or expiration of the Agreement, for any reason whatsoever, directly or indirectly, in any capacity whatsoever, engage in, become financially interested in, be employed by, or have any connection with any business or venture that is engaged in any activities competing with the activities of the Company.

  4.2. The Employee agrees and undertakes that during the employment relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination or expiration of this engagement for whatever reason, the Employee will not, directly or indirectly, including personally or in any business in which the Employee may be an officer, director or shareholder, solicit for employment any person who is employed by the Company, or any person retained by the Company as a consultant, supplier, advisor or the like who is subject to an undertaking towards the Company to refrain from engagement in activities competing with the activities of the Company (for purposes hereof, a “Consultant”), or was retained as an employee or a Consultant during the six months preceding termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company.

 

  5. Reasonableness of Protective Covenants

 

Insofar as the protective covenants set forth in this Schedule are concerned, the Employee specifically acknowledges, stipulates and agrees as follows: (i) the protective covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill, property and Proprietary Information of the Company, and the operations and business of the Company; and (ii) the time duration of the protective covenants is reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill and the operations and business of Company, and does not impose a greater restrain than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interests of the Company. Nevertheless, if any of the restrictions set forth in this Schedule is found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable or overly-broad as to geographic area, scope or time or to be otherwise unenforceable, the parties hereto intend for the restrictions set forth in this Schedule to be reformed, modified and redefined by such court so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified by such court, to be fully enforced.

 

  6. Remedies for Breach

 

The Employee acknowledges that the legal remedies for breach of the provisions of this Schedule may be found inadequate and therefore agrees that, in addition to all of the remedies available to the Company in the event of a breach or a threatened breach of any of such provisions, the Company may also, in addition to any other remedies which may be available under applicable law, obtain temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctions against any and all such actions.

 

  7. Intent of Parties

 

The Employee recognizes and agrees: (i) that this Schedule is necessary and essential to protect the business of the Company and to realize and derive all the benefits, rights and expectations of conducting Company’s business; (ii) that the area and duration of the protective covenants contained herein are in all things reasonable; (iii) that good and valuable consideration exists under the Agreement, for the Employee’s agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Schedule; and (iv) that the terms of this Schedule are in addition to, and do not derogate from, any obligation to which the Employee may be subject under applicable law or any other agreement or Company’s policy.
