marketing budget.

fulfill such condition.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
foregoing, the mutual covenants and
agreements contained herein, and other good
and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties,
intending to be legally bound, hereby agree
as follows:
1. Period of
Agreement.
The period of this Agreement shall commence
on the date hereof and remain in
effect through February 24, 2009 (the

Simultaneously with the execution of this
Agreement, the Purchaser has paid or

The parties acknowledge and agree that the
foregoing compensation paid or to
be paid to the Managing Member is
independent of the damages that the

breach of this Agreement by the
Managing Member and is not intended (and
shall not be deemed or construed) to
limit the amount of damages the Purchaser
shall suffer or be entitled to
recover in the event of any such
breach.
3. Covenant Not to

The Managing Member covenants and agrees
that during the Non-Compete Period,
the Managing Member shall not , without the
prior written consent of the

otherwise, alone or in association
with any other person, carry on, be
engaged, concerned, or take part in,
render services to, otherwise assist in any
manner (with or without any form
of compensation), or own, share in the
earnings of, or invest in the stock,
bonds, or other securities of, any person
which is engaged in a business
competitive with the business conducted
under the Seller's Business Agreements
(the "Business") or a similar business of
the Purchaser involving the business
of information systems business providing

which the Managing Member is in breach of
the terms of this section.

hereto that the foregoing covenant
by the Managing Member not to enter into

essential element of this Agreement

concerning the reasonableness and
propriety of such covenant, with specific
regard to the Business and the
nature of the business conducted by the
Purchaser and its affiliates. The

is reasonable in scope, geographic
area, and duration, and that compliance
with such covenant would not impose

entity, directly or indirectly, engage in
any of the following activities
without the express prior written consent
of the Purchaser:

any of the employees of the Purchaser or solicit or
take away any of the Purchaser's customers,

with the Purchaser or otherwise engage in
any act which would interfere with
