Common use of Valuable Consideration Clause in Contracts

Valuable Consideration. The Company shall provide Executive with the retention benefit set forth in Paragraph 1(a) (the “Separation Benefits”). Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Separation Benefits constitute adequate legal consideration for the promises and representations made by Executive in this Agreement. Executive’s receipt of the Separation Benefits is contingent upon Executive complying with the following conditions: (i) this Agreement must become effective, as set forth in Paragraph 5 below and (ii) Executive must continue to abide by the surviving provisions of the Proprietary Rights Agreement described in Paragraph 4(f) below, except for any provisions of the Proprietary Rights Agreement which conflict with this Agreement (the “Conflicting Provisions”), in which case this Agreement will govern. For clarification, Section 13 (“Covenant Not to Compete or Solicit”) of the Proprietary Rights Agreement is a Conflicting Provision, and Paragraph 14 of this Agreement shall therefore govern.
