                     (a)           Obligation. The Director will hold the Company's Confidential Information, as defined below, in the strictest confidence and will not disclose or use the Confidential Information except as permitted by this Agreement in connection with the Services, unless expressly authorized to act otherwise in writing by an officer of the Company. The Director's obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement. In addition, Director recognizes that she will be exposed to, have access to and be engaged in the development of information (including tangible and intangible manifestations) regarding the patents, copyrights, trademarks, and Confidential Information of the Company. Director acknowledges and agrees that all this information, whether presently existing or developed in the future, which is not the subject of a patent, patent application, copyright, trademark or trade secret either owned by Director or in the public domain prior to the Effective Date, is the sole property of the Company and its assigns.

                     (b)           Confidential Information. "Confidential Information" means trade secrets, confidential information, data or any other proprietary information of the Company.

However, "Confidential Information" does not include information that is (as demonstrated by written evidence):

 

(i)

already known to the Director at the time of disclosure;

 

(ii)

publicly available or becomes publicly available without a breach by the Director;

 

(iii)

(iv)

rightfully first received by the Director from a third party other than the Company.

                     (c)           No Conflicting Obligations. Director represents and warrants that Director's performance of this Agreement and her service as a director of the Company do not and will not breach or conflict with any agreement to which Director is or becomes a party.

                     (d)           Third-Party Confidential Information. The Director understands that the Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties information that is confidential or proprietary ("Third-Party Information") subject to a duty on the part of the Company to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, Director will hold Third-Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose or use Third-Party Information except as permitted by the agreement between the Company and such third party, unless expressly authorized to act otherwise by an officer of the Company in writing (other than an officer who is also a principal of the Director).

          5.           Termination. This Agreement shall terminate automatically on the date that Director ceases to be a director of the Company.

          6.           Independent Contractor. The Director is hereby engaged as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the Company. In addition, the Director is providing the services under this Agreement solely at her own direction and under her own supervision.
