Full Time and Best Efforts I will devote my full time during the time I am expected to work, and my best efforts, to Company’s business to the exclusion of all other business activities. In addition, while I am employed by the Company, I will not, directly or indirectly, either by myself or in conjunction with others, be engaged or interested in, or affiliated with, or organize or help to organize, or aid or assist in any manner any business similar to or competitive with Company, except that mere ownership of no more than one percent (1%) of the capital stock of a corporation whose stock is registered under Section 12 or Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is not so barred. I agree to fully comply with all published Company policies and procedures as they may be amended from time to time, and to always conduct myself in accord with the highest ethical, moral, and legal standards.
