(i) "Covered Products" means any product which falls into one or more of the following categories, so long as GSS is producing, marketing, distributing, selling or licensing such product anywhere in the world: fruit puree smoothies, health and sports drinks and beverages marketed as thirst quenchers or as healthy; and items GSS produces for the food service market.

(D) providing a testimonial on behalf of such an operation or the product it produces; or

(E) doing anything else which falls within a common sense definition of the term "participate" as used in the present context.

(e) Remedies: In the event of a breach or threatened breach of any term of subsections 6(a) or 6(d), GSS shall be entitled to injunctive relief and/or damages. The parties agree that breach of these provisions would cause irreparable injury to GSS for which there would be no adequate remedy at law, due among other reasons to the inherent difficulty of determining the precise causation for loss of customers/consumers or measuring the exact impact of losing key employees or having Confidential Information disclosed.

(f) Recitals: IRELAND acknowledges that by virtue of the positions he will hold, he will acquire Confidential Information, including without limitation knowledge of operational plans, strategic long range plans, new product development, marketing plans, sales plans, and distribution plans.

(b) In any litigation over this Agreement, both parties consent to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any court, state or federal, in the State of Texas. Such courts in Texas shall be the exclusive jurisdiction for any litigation over this Agreement or an alleged breach thereof.

8. Attorney Fees And Other Expenses:

(a) GSS will pay all reasonable legal, accounting and other professional fees and related expenses IRELAND incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement.

(b) If IRELAND and GSS become involved in litigation regarding the terms of his employment with GSS or the termination thereof, the party which prevails shall be entitled to reimbursement of all reasonable litigation costs and expenses, including attorney fees. If each party prevails on one or more litigated issues, the court shall exercise its equitable judgment to determine which, if either, should be considered the prevailing party and the percentage of that party's expenses which should be reimbursed, taking into account such factors as the significance of the issue(s) on which each party prevailed, the reasonableness of each party's position(s), and ability to pay.

9. Indemnification: To the fullest extent permitted by law and GSS's by-laws, GSS shall indemnify IRELAND (including the advancement of expenses) for any judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by IRELAND in connection with the defense of any lawsuit or other claim to which he is made a party by reason of being an officer, director or employee of GSS or any of its subsidiaries.

10. Binding Effect: This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the heirs and representatives of IRELAND and the successors and assigns of GSS. GSS shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, reorganization, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, liquidation or otherwise) to all or a substantial portion of its assets to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that GSS would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; provided, IRELAND shall have the same obligations to the successor as he would have had to GSS. Regardless of whether such an agreement is executed, this Agreement shall be binding on any successor of GSS in accordance with the operation of law, and such successor shall be deemed "GSS" for all purposes under this Agreement.

12. Scope of Agreement:

(a) This Agreement supersedes any other document or oral agreement that conflicts with it regarding any of the matters set forth herein, however, it is not intended to pre-empt or supersede other documents, including plan documents, that provide additional, non-conflicting rules or terms. Without limitation, nothing in this Agreement shall eliminate or reduce IRELAND's obligation to comply with the Code Of Ethics, to the extent that certain of its provisions (such as rules regarding disclosure of confidential information) remain applicable to employees after termination.

(b) No promises or inducements have been made other than those reflected herein. This Agreement cannot be amended except by a written agreement signed by the parties, and only the Board has authority to authorize such an amendment on behalf of GSS.
