For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential/Trade Secret Information” is information that is not generally known to the public and, as a result, is of economic benefit to the Company in the conduct of its business, and the business of the Company’s subsidiaries. Consultant and the Company agree that the term “Confidential/Trade Secret Information” includes but is not limited to all information developed or obtained by the Company, including its affiliates, and predecessors, and comprising the following items, whether or not such items have been reduced to tangible form (e.g., physical writing, computer hard drive, disk, tape, etc.): all methods, techniques, processes, ideas, research and development, product designs, engineering designs, plans, models, production plans, business plans, add-on features, trade names, service marks, slogans, forms, pricing structures, business forms, marketing programs and plans, layouts and designs, financial structures, operational methods and tactics, cost information, the identity of and/or contractual arrangements with suppliers and/or vendors, accounting procedures, and any document, record or other information of the Company relating to the above. Confidential/Trade Secret Information includes not only information directly belonging to the Company which existed before the date of this Agreement, but also information developed by Consultant for the Company, including its subsidiaries, affiliates and predecessors, during the term of Consultant’s engagement with the Company. Confidential/Trade Secret Information does not include any information which (a) was in the lawful and unrestricted possession of Consultant prior to its disclosure to Consultant by the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates or predecessors, or owned thereby, which shall be included in Confidential/Trade Secret Information, (b) is or becomes generally available to the public by lawful acts other than those of Consultant after receiving it, or (c) has been received lawfully and in good faith by Consultant from a third party who is not and has never been a Consultant of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates or predecessors, and who did not derive it from the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates or predecessors.
4.1.2 Restriction on Use of Confidential/Trade Secret Information.

Consultant agrees that it will not remove any Confidential/Trade Secret Information from the offices of the Company or the premises of any facility in which the Consultant is performing services for the Company, except pursuant to his duties under this Agreement. Consultant further agrees that it shall surrender to the Company all documents and materials in his possession or control which contain Confidential/Trade Secret Information and which are the property of the Company upon the termination of his engagement with the Company, and that it shall not thereafter retain any copies of any such materials.
4.2. Non-Solicitation of Employees and Consultants. Consultant agrees that during the Term and the twelve-month period following the Termination Date, he shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or otherwise encourage any employees or consultants of the Company to leave the employ or service of the Company, or solicit, directly or indirectly, any of the Company’s employees or consultants for employment or service; provided, however, that Consultant may solicit an employee or consultant if (i) such employee or consultant has resigned voluntarily (without any solicitation from Consultant), and at least one (1) year has elapsed since such employee’s or consultant’s resignation from employment or termination of service with the Company, (ii) such employee’s employment or consultant’s services was terminated by the Company, and if one (1) year has elapsed since such employee or consultant was terminated by the Company, (iii) the Company has consented to the solicitation of such employee or consultant in writing, which consent the Company may withhold in its sole discretion, or (iv) such solicitation solely occurs by general solicitations for employment to the public.
