respect to the protection of the confidential information and legitimate business interests of the

As a condition of my employment and/or continued employment with the Company and my receipt of
the compensation now and hereafter paid to me by the Company, I agree to the following:

1. Confidential Information:

Company Information: I shall not use, communicate, or disclose, except for the benefit of the
Company, any Confidential Information relating to the Company, its corporate parent, or any of
their subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively “Company Parties”), to which I have been privy to by
virtue of being an employee of the Company. I understand that “Confidential Information” for this
purpose shall mean and include all information, regardless of the form whether oral, written, stored
in a computer database or otherwise, which in any way relates to markets, customers (including, but
not limited to customers of any of the Company Parties with whom I interacted or with whom I
became acquainted while being associated with the Company), products, patents, inventions, know-
how, software, procedures, methods, designs, strategies, plans, assets, liabilities, revenues, pricing
lists, customer information, profits, organization, employees, agents, distributors or business in
general of any of the Company Parties. I understand that Confidential Information and trade secrets
do not include any of the items mentioned above, which have become publicly known and made
generally available through no wrongful act of mine, or of others who were under confidentiality
obligations, as to the item or items involved. I hereby agree to maintain the secrecy and
confidentiality of such Confidential Information.

Former Employer Information: I agree that I will not, during my employment with the Company,
improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or concurrent
employer or other person or entity. Further, I will not bring into the Company premises any
proprietary information or trade secret of any such employer, person or entity unless consented to
in writing by such employer, person, or entity.

Signature of Employee:
 Third Party Information: I recognize that the Company has received, and in the future will receive,
from third parties their confidential or proprietary information subject to a duty to maintain the
confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. I agree to hold all
such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and agree to not disclose it
to any person, corporation, or entity. I also agree not to use such information except as necessary in
carrying out my work for the Company consistent with the Company’s Agreement with such third
party.

2. Inventions:

Inventions Retained and Licensed: I have shared and declared a list describing all inventions, original
works of authorship, developments, improvements, and trade secrets which were made by me prior
to my employment with the Company (collectively referred to as “Prior Inventions”), which belong
to me, which relate to the Company’s proposed business, products or research and development,
and which are not assigned to the Company hereunder, or, if no such list is attached, I represent
that there are no such Prior Inventions. If in the course of my employment with the Company, I
incorporate into a Company product, process, or machine a Prior Invention owned by me or in
which I have an interest, the Company is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free,
irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to make, have made, modify, use and sell such Prior
Invention as part of or in connection with such product, process or machine.

Assignment of Inventions: I agree that I will promptly make full written disclosure to the Company,
which will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of the Company, and hereby assign to the
Company, or its designee, all my right, title, and interest in and to any/all invention(s), original works
of authorship, development, concepts improvements or trade secrets, whether or not patentable or
registrable under copyright or similar laws, which I may solely or jointly conceive or develop or
reduce to practice, or cause to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice, during the period
of time I am in the employ of the Company (collectively referred to as “Inventions”), except as
provided in sub-section (e) below. I further acknowledge that all original works of authorship
created by me (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the period of my
employment with the Company and which are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire”,
as defined under the local copyright legislations (and all amendments thereto).

Maintenance of Records: I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current written records of all
Inventions made by me (solely or jointly with others) during the terms of my employment with the
Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, and any other format that
8
Signature of Employee:
 may be specified by the Company. The records will be available to the Company and always remain
the sole property of the Company.

Patent and Copyright Registrations: I agree to assist the Company, or its designee, at the Company’s
expense, in every proper way to secure the Company’s rights in the Inventions and any copyrights,
patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto in any and all
countries, including the disclosure to the Company of all pertinent information and data with
respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other
instruments which the Company shall deem necessary in order to apply for and obtain such rights
and in order to assign and convey to the Company, its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole
and exclusive rights, title and interest in and to such Inventions, and any copy rights, patents, mask
work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto. I further agree that my obligation
to execute or cause to be executed, any such instrument or papers shall continue after the
termination of my employment. If the Company is unable to perfect any right, title, interest
because of my mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason to fail to secure my signature to
apply for or to pursue any application for any local or foreign patents or copyright registrations
covering Inventions or original works of authorship assigned to the Company as above, then I hereby
irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as my
agent and attorney in fact, to act for and on my behalf to execute and file any such applications and
to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent or
copyright registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.

Inventions to the Company do not apply to any invention for which no equipment, supplies, facilities
or trade secret information of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on my own
time, unless: (i) at the time the Invention was conceived or reduced to practice, it related (A) directly
to the business of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated
research or development; or (ii) the Invention resulted from any work performed by me for the
Company. I understand further that the laws of certain states would prohibit the assignment of
such Inventions. I will advise the Company promptly in writing of any inventions that I believe meet
the criteria of this paragraph.
