1. Confidential Information. During the course of my employment, I may have access to a variety of information, in any form or medium, relating to GAFMC’s business and finances, some of which may be trade secrets, concerning competitive analyses, product costs, manufacturing costs, pricing information, business forecast information, sales information, profit information, accounting information, tax information, financial plans, acquisition and divestiture information and strategies, business strategies, product improvements and strategies, service improvements and strategies, marketing improvements and strategies, sales improvements and strategies, current product applications, current marketing plans and current sales plans, chemical processes and techniques, administrative information including management organizational information, and/or information which has not been made available to the general public by senior management (all the aforementioned information is collectively referred to as “Confidential Information”). I agree never to disclose Confidential Information except as is reasonably necessary to perform my job at GAFMC. Upon request or termination of my employment. I agree to return all Confidential Information.

2. Non-Competition. GAFMC does not intend to interfere with any former employee’s employment opportunities unless there is a conflict with GAFMC’s legitimate business interests. In order to help protect those interests, while employed by GAFMC and for twelve (12) months (the “Restricted Period”) after my employment is terminated (i) by me or (ii) by the Company for cause, I agree not to become engaged, directly or indirectly, as an employee, consultant or otherwise, for any Competitive Organization in any management, executive, sales and marketing, research and development or operations position. I may accept such an engagement with a Competitive Organization if: (i) it is diversified and has well-established, pre-existing, separate and distinct divisions, (ii) I am involved only in that part of the business which is not a Competitive Organization, and (iii) prior to my accepting such an engagement, in any capacity, the Competitive Organization provides GAFMC with written assurances, satisfactory to GAFMC, that I will not, and the Competitive Organization will not cause me to, render services directly or indirectly in connection with any Competitive Product. The running of the Restricted Period shall be stopped or tolled for any period of time following the termination of my GAFMC employment during which I compete with GAFMC in violation of this paragraph 2.

As used in this paragraph 2:

(i) “for cause” means: (a) the employee’s repeated failure to follow the instructions or directions of his supervisors in connection with the performance of his duties and responsibilities; (b) any fraud, criminal misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, dishonesty, gross neglect or willful misconduct by the employee in connection with the

4. Inventions, Techniques, or Processes. Any inventions, techniques, processes, and the like developed by me during the course of my employment (collectively referred to as “Intellectual Property”) are the property of GAFMC, and I assign to GAFMC all rights to such Intellectual Property, patentable or not, made or conceived by me while employed by GAFMC. I agree to do all that is necessary to cause all right and title pertaining to such Intellectual Property to belong exclusively to GAFMC and to enable GAFMC to maintain copyright, patent, trademark or other legal protection anywhere in the world.

7. Advice. I have the right to consult an attorney before signing this Agreement.

8. General. Each of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on me after my employment terminates, regardless of the reason(s) for termination.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements dealing with any of the subject matter of this Agreement and can be revoked or modified only by a written agreement signed by me and GAFMC.

The provisions of this agreement are severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect application of any other provision, When possible, consistent with the purpose of this Agreement, any invalid provision of this Agreement may be reformed, and as reformed, enforced.
