9. NON-COMPETITION

Contractor agrees that because of the confidential and sensitive nature of the Proprietary Information and because the personal use of, or even the appearance of the personal use of, the Proprietary Information in certain circumstances may cause irreparable damage to Company and its reputation, or to clients of Company, Contractor shall not, until the expiration of 2 years after the date on which Contractor's employment with Company terminates for any reason, engage, directly or indirectly, or through any corporation or associates in any business, enterprise or employment which directly solicits business, performs services or delivers goods that are competitive to those of Company to any past or existing customers or prospects of Company.

To prevent a conflict of interest for both parties, Contractor may not purchase services related to the Credit Manager Launch program during Contractor's engagement of services with Company. Such services may only be obtained after termination of this Agreement.

11. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

Contractor acknowledges that disclosure or personal use of any Proprietary Information by Contractor or breach by Contractor of any of the covenants will give rise to irreparable injury to Company, or clients of Company. Contractor also agrees that this injury to Company, or clients of Company, would be inadequately compensated in money damages alone. Accordingly, Company or, where appropriate the client of Company, may seek and obtain injunctive relief against the breach, or threatened breach, of the disclosure or personal use of any Proprietary Information by Contractor, in addition to any other legal remedies which may be available. Company further acknowledges that the enforcement of a remedy hereunder by way of injunction would not prevent Contractor from earning a reasonable livelihood since Contractor's experience and capabilities would be such that in the event that Contractor's employment with Company terminates for any reason, Contractor will be able to obtain employment in business activities which are not restricted by this Agreement.

12. GENERAL

This Agreement contains the entire understanding between Company and Contractor relating to the subject matter of confidentiality, work product and non-competition. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Texas, and may be modified only by a writing signed by Contractor and Company. Contractor hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the United States sitting in Texas. The provisions of this Agreement relating to confidentiality and non-competition shall survive any termination of employment no less than two years from the date of termination.
