In the event that the Consultant shall be legally required (by formal questioning or, in the written opinion of his legal counsel, by applicable securities laws) to disclose any Proprietary Information, the Consultant shall immediately notify the Company of such request or requirement prior to disclosure so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order with the reasonable assistance of the Consultant, and/or waive compliance with the terms of this undertaking, at the Company's absolute discretion. If such order or waiver is not timely obtained, only such portion of the Proprietary Information as specifically required shall be disclosed. For the avoidance of doubt, any information disclosed pursuant to such event, shall continue to be deemed as Proprietary Information.

5.6. Upon termination of the engagement with the Company, the Consultant will promptly deliver to the Company all documents and materials of any nature pertaining to the Services, and it will not take any documents or materials or copies thereof containing any Proprietary Information. The Consultant further covenants that it will delete all copies of Proprietary Information stored in digital or electronic databases.

6. Disclosure and Assignment of Inventions

6.2. The Consultant agrees that all Inventions that: (a) are developed using equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secrets of the Company; (b) result from the Services or other work performed for the Company; or (c) relate to the Company’s business or current or anticipated research and development, will be the sole and exclusive property of the Company (“Company Inventions”) and are hereby assigned to the Company.

6.3. The Consultant acknowledges that the consideration under the Agreement is sufficient consideration for, inter alia, the obligations pursuant to this Section 6 and includes any compensation due for “Service Inventions” under Chapter H of the Israeli Patents Law, 1967.

6.4. The Consultant shall immediately on request by the Company (whether during engagement with the Company or after the termination of such engagement) and at the expense of the Company:

(a) apply or join with the Company in applying for any any Proprietary Information or other protection or registration (“Protection”) for, or in relation to, any Company Inventions;

(b) execute all instruments and do all things necessary for vesting Company Inventions or Protection when obtained and all right, title and interest to and in the same absolutely and as sole beneficial owner in the Company or other person as the Company may nominate;

(c) in the event that the Company is unable for any reason, after reasonable effort, to secure The Consultant signature on any document needed in connection with the actions specified in the preceding paragraph, The Consultant hereby: (i) irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as his agent and attorney in fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to act for and in his behalf to execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the preceding paragraph with the same legal force and effect as if executed by him, and (ii) hereby waives and quitclaims to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which he now or may hereafter have for infringement of any Company Inventions assigned hereunder to the Company.

6.5. The Consultant agrees and acknowledges that he will not be entitled, with respect to all of the above, to any monetary consideration or any other consideration except as explicitly set forth in this Agreement, and that the consideration explicitly set forth in this Agreement is in lieu of any rights for compensation that may arise in connection with the Company Inventions under applicable law. The Consultant hereby waives any right to claim royalties or other consideration with respect to any such Company Inventions, including under Section 134 of the Israeli Patents Law - 1967. Consultant further forever waives and agrees never to assert any and all Moral Rights he may have in or with respect to any Company Inventions, even after termination of the engagement hereunder. “Moral Rights” means any right to claim authorship of a Company Invention, any right to object to any distortion or other modification of a Company Invention, and any similar right, existing under the law of any country in the world, or under any treaty

7. Non-Competition; Non- Solicitation

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision shall not preclude the Consultant from (i) making good faith generalized solicitations for employees through advertisements and hiring any persons through such solicitations, or (ii) responding to or hiring any employee of the Company who contacts the Consultant at his or her own initiative without any prior direct or indirect encouragement or solicitation (other than as permitted by clause (i) of this Section).

7.3. The Consultant acknowledges that the restrictions set under this Section 7 are fair and reasonable, and are essential for protection of the Company's and the Company's business, proprietary rights and other legitimate interests of the Company, in view of the nature of the business in which the Company is engaged and its innovative course. In addition, such restrictions are fully compensated for by the Fee and other benefits granted hereunder

7.4. If any one or more of the terms contained in this Section shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad with regard to time, geographic scope or activity, the term shall be construed in a manner to enable it to be enforced to the extent compatible with applicable law.
