Exhibit 10.1

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

HARRY HAGERTY

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) by and between GALAXY GAMING, INC., a Nevada corporation (“Employer”), and Harry Hagerty (“Employee” and, together with Employer, the “Parties”) is entered into on May 1, 2017, and made effective for all purposes as of May 1, 2017 (the “Effective Date”).  

WHEREAS, Employer operates in the highly-competitive business of designing, developing, manufacturing, marketing and acquiring proprietary casino table games and associated technology, platforms and systems (the “Business”) for the casino gaming industry in the United States, Canada and other countries (the “Industry”) and provides such services (the “Services”) to casinos and other gaming venues; and

WHEREAS, Employer desires to employ Employee and Employee desires to be employed by Employer, in such capacity, and under the terms and restrictions as set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, as a result of such employment, Employee has and will have access to Confidential Information and Trade Secrets (as defined herein).  Employee will gain the ability to influence the goodwill of Employer with Partners (as defined herein) necessary to the success of the Business.  Employee recognizes that the Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and Partner relationships and goodwill are assets deserving of protection as provided for in the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of Employee’s employment with Employer on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the promises, mutual covenants, and agreements hereinafter contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Employer and Employee, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree and covenant as follows:

(a)Term.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Employer agrees to employ Employee, and Employee agrees to be employed by Employer as of the Effective Date pursuant to the terms herein until April 30, 2020.    

(b)Release of Claims.  This Agreement supersedes in its entirety any employment agreement, oral or in writing, or comparable arrangements between Employer and Employee in effect prior to the Effective Date.  Employee hereby relinquishes and unconditionally forfeits any claim or entitlement to any severance pay or other post-termination benefits from Employer pursuant to any agreement in effect prior to the Effective Date, and hereby discharges and releases any claims against Employer relating to anything done or omitted to be done with respect to Employee’s employment up to the date of this Agreement.   

(c)Position; Duties.  During the period of Employee’s employment hereunder, Employee agrees to serve Employer, and Employer shall employ Employee, in the position listed on Exhibit A, or in such other capacity or capacities as may be determined from time to time by Employer. During the period of Employee’s employment with Employer, Employee shall in good faith devote Employee’s time, attention, skills and efforts to the business and affairs of Employer.  Employee’s duties shall be performed under the direction and supervision of Employer’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and may change in order to meet the Company’s existing needs at the direction of the CEO.  The foregoing shall not be

construed as prohibiting Employee from serving on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees or making personal investments, so long as such activities are approved in advance by the CEO (such approval to not be unreasonably withheld) and do not materially interfere with the performance of Employee’s obligations to Employer as set forth in this Agreement or as may be determined by Employer from time to time. Employer and Employee agree that Employee may continue to serve as an officer and board member at Sightline Payments LLC provided that 1) such activity does not consume more than 6 hours per week and 2) such activity terminates on or before December 31, 2017.

(d)Compensation; Benefits.  For all services rendered by Employee under this Agreement, Employee shall be compensated as set forth in Exhibit A.  Employer may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state and local taxes required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

(e)Survival of Employee’s Obligations After Termination.  Upon the effective date of the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer under this Agreement, regardless the date, cause or manner of such termination (the “Termination Date”), Employee’s obligations set forth in Sections 3, 4 and 5, below, shall survive and remain in full force and effect to the extent provided in those Sections.

(a)Termination by Employer for Cause.  Employer may terminate Employee’s employment under this Agreement for “Cause” (as hereinafter defined) or otherwise at will at any time immediately upon written notice, or where applicable, upon Employee’s failure to cure the breach as provided below, whereupon Employer shall have no further obligation hereunder to Employee, except for payment of amounts of Base Salary accrued through the Termination Date.  For purposes of this agreement, “Cause” shall mean: (i) the continued willful failure by Employee to substantially perform his duties with Employer, (ii) the willful engaging by Employee in gross misconduct materially and demonstrably injurious to Employer, (iii) the good faith and commercially reasonable determination by the CEO that Employee’s continued employment by Employer is likely to have a materially adverse effect on the licensing or regulatory status of Employer with any gaming or other regulatory agency, or (iv) Employee’s material breach of Section 1, 3, 4 or 5 of this Agreement; provided, that with respect to any breach that is curable by Employee, as determined by Employer in good faith, Employer has provided Employee written notice of the material breach and Employee has not cured such breach, as determined by Employer in good faith, within fifteen (15) business days following the date Employer provides such notice.  

(b)Termination as a Result of Employee’s Death or Disability.  Employee’s employment hereunder shall terminate automatically upon Employee’s death and may be terminated by Employer upon Employee’s Disability (as hereinafter defined).  If Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated by reason of Employee’s Disability or death, Employee’s (or Employee’s estate’s) right to benefits under this Agreement will terminate as of the date of such termination and all of Employer’s obligations hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate, except that Employee or Employee’s estate, as the case may be, will be entitled to receive accrued Base Salary and benefits through the Termination Date.  As used herein, “Disability” shall have the meaning set forth in any long-term disability plan in which Employee participates, and in the absence thereof shall mean the determination in good faith by Employer’s board of directors (the “Board”) (or comparable governing body) that, due to physical or mental illness, Employee shall have failed to perform his duties on a full-time basis hereunder for one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days and shall not have returned to the performance of his duties hereunder on a full-time basis before the end of such period, and if Disability has occurred termination shall occur within thirty (30) days after written notice of termination is given (which notice may be given before the end of the one hundred eighty (180) day period described above so as to cause termination of employment to occur as early as the last day of such period).

- 2 -

(c)Termination by Employee for Good Reason or by Employer other than as a Result of Employee’s Death or Disability or other than for Cause; Change of Control.

(i)Employee may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder for “Good Reason” (as hereinafter defined), if Good Reason exists, upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Employer, and Employer may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder for any reason or for no reason, other than as a result of Employee’s death or Disability or for Cause, upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Employee, in each case with the consequences set forth in this Section 2(c).

(ii)If Employee’s employment is terminated by Employee for Good Reason or by Employer for any reason other than Employee’s death or Disability or other than for Cause, subject to Employee entering into and not revoking a release of claims in favor of Employer and its affiliates pursuant to Section 2(e) below and Employee fully complying with the covenants set forth in Sections 3, 4 and 5, Employee shall be entitled to the following benefits:

(A)Cash severance payments equal in the aggregate to twelve (12) months of Employee’s annual Base Salary at the time of termination, payable in accordance with Employer’s customary payroll practices as in effect from time to time.  

(B)Continuation of Employee’s medical and health insurance benefits for a period equal to the lesser of (i) twelve (12) months or (ii) the period ending on the date Employee first becomes entitled to medical and health insurance benefits under any plan maintained by any person for whom Employee provides services as an employee or otherwise.

(C)In addition, solely if Employee is terminated without Cause following a “Change of Control” (as defined below), Employee shall be entitled to (i) cash severance payments equal in the aggregate to twelve (12) months of Employee’s annual Base Salary at the time of termination, payable in accordance with Employer’s customary payroll practices as in effect from time to time, and (ii) any unvested stock options or restricted stock granted to Employee pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise shall accelerate and immediately vest.

(iii)For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean: (A) a material reduction (without Employee’s express written consent) in Employee’s Base Salary, unless the reduction is made as part of, and is generally consistent with, a general reduction of executive salaries; (B) a material reduction (without Employee’s express written consent) in Employee’s Responsibilities as listed in Exhibit A; or (C) Employer’s material breach (without Employee’s express written consent) of Section 1 of this Agreement; provided, that Employee has provided Employer written notice of the material breach and Employer has not cured such breach within thirty (30) days following the date Employee provides such notice.  If Employer thereafter intentionally repeats the breach it previously cured, such breach shall no longer be deemed curable.

(iv)For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean (A) the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of Employer’s assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any “person” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), entity or “group” of persons (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) acting in concert; (B) any “person” becoming the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Employer representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by Employer’s then-outstanding voting securities; or (C) a merger or consolidation of Employer with any other corporation or other entity, other than a merger or consolidation that would result in the voting securities of Employer outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving

- 3 -

entity or its controlling entity) at least 50% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of Employer, or such surviving entity (or its controlling entity), outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, as applicable.  Employer and Employee acknowledge and agree that pursuant to subsection (B) of this section 2(c)(iv) above, a conveyance by a party owning 50% or more of the total voting power represented by Employer’s then-outstanding voting securities (the “Majority Owner”) to one or more entities controlled by or under common control with such Majority Owner, or conveyances between any such entities controlled by or under common control with such Majority Owner, shall not be deemed to be a Change of Control unless or until the Majority Owner ceases to own, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total voting power represented by Employer’s then-outstanding voting securities.

(d)Termination by Employee other than for Good Reason.  Employee may terminate his employment with Employer other than for Good Reason upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to Employer, after which Employer shall have no further obligation hereunder to Employee, except for payment of amounts of Base Salary and other benefits accrued through the Termination Date.  If Employee so notifies Employer of such termination, Employer shall have the right to accelerate the effective date of such termination to any date after Employer’s receipt of such notice, but such acceleration will not be deemed to constitute a termination of Employee’s employment by Employer without Cause, and the consequences of such termination will continue to be governed by this subsection (d).

(e)Waiver and Release.  In consideration for and as a condition to the payments and benefits provided and to be provided under Section 2(c)(ii) of this Agreement, Employee agrees that Employee will, within thirty (30) days after the Termination Date, deliver to Employer a fully executed release agreement substantially in a form then used by and agreeable to Employer and which shall fully and irrevocably release and discharge Employer and its directors, officers, managers, members, shareholders and employees from any and all claims, charges, complaints, liabilities of any kind, known or unknown, owed to Employee, other than any rights Employee may have under the terms of this Agreement that survive such termination of employment and other than any vested rights of Employee under any of Employer’s employee benefit plans or programs that, by their terms, survive or are unaffected by such termination of employment.

(a)Employee expressly recognizes and acknowledges that in connection with Employee’s employment with Employer, Employee will be given access to certain highly-sensitive confidential and proprietary information belonging to Employer or other parties who may have furnished such information under obligations of confidentiality, relating to and used in the Business or the provision of Services (collectively, “Confidential Information”).  Employee expressly recognizes and acknowledges that, unless otherwise generally available to the public, Confidential Information shall include, but not be limited to, the following categories of information and material, regardless of how such information or material may exist from time to time and whether in electronic, print, or other form, including all copies, notes, or other reproductions or replicas thereof, which constitute valuable, special, and unique assets of Employer or its affiliates that have been developed or acquired through substantial investments of time, money, and resources, and regardless of whether such information is marked as “confidential”:

(i)any and all information relating to the operation of the Business or the provision of Services, methods of operation, technology, or marketing, including, but not limited to, business plans, processes, strategic plans, forecasts, financial information or data, marketing information or data, research and development, business account lists, customer lists (including customer names and contact information), customer information (including customer preferences, pricing, buying habits and needs and the methods of fulfilling those needs), employee lists (including skills, ability and compensation of employees other than Employee), vendor or

- 4 -

supplier lists, licensor or licensee lists, contractor lists, records relating to any intellectual property owned by, controlled, or maintained by Employer related to the operation of the Business or provision of Services, and any and all other records pertaining to the operation of the Business or provision of Services which Employer may, from time to time, designate as confidential or proprietary or that Employee reasonably knows should be treated or has been treated by Employer or its affiliates as confidential or proprietary and is related to the operation of the Business or provision of Services;

(ii)any and all information of a technical or proprietary nature developed by or acquired by Employer or made available to Employer and its employees, or any licensor, licensee, customer, utility, supplier, vendor, employee, contractor, sub-contractor, government agency, or municipality affiliated with Employer, on a confidential basis or protected basis and related to the Businesses or provision of Services, including but not limited to any scientific or technical analyses, ideas, concepts, designs, specifications, requirements, prototypes, techniques, technical data or know-how, formulae, methods, discoveries, improvements, equipment, research and development, and inventions related to the Business or provision of Services; and

(iii)excludes information (A) which is in the public domain through no unauthorized act or omission of Employee or (B) which becomes available to Employee on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Employer or its affiliates without breach of such source’s confidentiality or non-disclosure obligations to Employer or any of its affiliates.

(b)Employee agrees that Employee shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third-party not employed by or otherwise expressly associated or affiliated with Employer for any reason or purpose whatsoever and will not use such Confidential Information except on behalf of Employer at any time during Employee’s employment with Employer, or at any time within two years after the Termination Date.  Employee further agrees to promptly surrender to Employer upon request during Employee’s employment with Employer and immediately upon the Termination Date, all Confidential Information and any other property of any kind, existing in any tangible, print or electronic form in Employee’s possession or under Employee’s control, including all passwords used by Employee to access facilities, networks, or phone systems of Employer.  Employee also expressly agrees that immediately upon the Termination Date, Employee shall cease using any secure website or web portals, e-mail system, or phone system or voicemail service of Employer.  

(c)In addition, during Employee’s employment with Employer and at all times after the Termination Date, Employee shall not directly or indirectly disclose any Trade Secret (defined below) to any third-party, and shall not use any Trade Secret, directly or indirectly, for Employee or for others, without the prior written consent of Employer.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Trade Secret” means any item of Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret of Employer or any of the Affiliated Entities under the common law or statutory law of the state of Nevada.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, alter either Employer’s rights or Employee’s obligations under any state or federal statutory or common law regarding trade secrets and unfair trade practices.

(d)It is acknowledged and agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 3 would cause irreparable injury to Employer and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Employer.  In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Employee of this Section 3, Employer shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from disclosing any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets, and, further, from accepting any employment with or rendering any services to any such third-party to whom any Confidential Information or Trade Secret has been disclosed or is threatened to be disclosed by Employee.

(e)Nothing contained in this Section 3 shall be construed as prohibiting Employer from pursuing any other equitable or legal remedies for any such breach or threatened breach, including

- 5 -

recovery from Employee of any monetary damages that Employer may suffer by reason of any such breach or threatened breach.

(a)Covenant Not to Compete.  Employee acknowledges that Employee’s duties as an employee and member of Employer’s Leadership Team will entail involvement with the entire range of Employer’s operations across the Industry, and that Employee’s extensive familiarity with Employer’s provision of Services, Confidential Information and Trade Secrets justifies a restriction applicable across the entire geographic footprint in which Employer provides Services.  To the fullest extent permitted by any applicable state law, Employee agrees that during Employee’s continuous employment with Employer, and for the period of twelve (12) months immediately following the Termination Date, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of Employer, directly or indirectly, obtain or hold a Competitive Position with a Competitor in the Restricted Territory, as these terms are defined herein.

(i)For purposes of this Agreement, a “Competitive Position” means any employment with or service to be performed (whether as owner, member, manager, lender, partner, shareholder, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer, or otherwise) for a Competitor in which Employee (A) will use or disclose or could reasonably be expected to use or disclose any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets for the purpose of providing, or attempting to provide, such Competitor with a competitive advantage in the Industry or (B) will hold a position, will have duties, or will perform or be expected to perform services for such Competitor, that is or are the same as or substantially similar to the position held by Employee with Employer or those duties or services actually performed by Employee for Employer in connection with the provision of Services by Employer, or (C) will otherwise engage in the Businesses, or market, sell or provide Services in competition with Employer.

(ii)For purposes of this Agreement, “Competitor” means any third-party (A) whose business is the same as or substantially similar to the Business or major segment thereof, or (B) who owns or operates, intends to own or operate, or is preparing to own or operate a subsidiary, affiliate, or business line or business segment whose business is or is expected to be the same as or substantially similar to the Business or major segment thereof.

(iii)For purposes of this Agreement, “Restricted Territory” means anywhere in the world.  

Employee shall be deemed to be in a Competitive Position with a Competitor in the Restricted Territory if Employee obtains or holds a Competitive Position with a Competitor that conducts its business within the Restricted Territory (and Employee’s responsibilities relate to that Competitor’s business in the Restricted Territory), even if Employee’s residence or principal place of work (other than as permitted by applicable law) is not within the Restricted Territory.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may, as a passive investor, own capital stock of a publicly held corporation, which is actively traded in the over-the-counter market or is listed and traded on a national securities exchange, which constitutes or is affiliated with a Competitor, so long as Employee’s ownership is not in excess of five percent (5%) of the total outstanding capital stock of the Competitor.

(b)Non-Solicitation / No Interference Provisions.

(i)Business Partners.  Employee understands and agrees that the relationship between Employer and each of its licensors, licensees, suppliers, vendors, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, customers, and prospective customers related to the Business or the provision of Services (the “Partners”) constitutes a valuable asset of Employer, and may not be misappropriated for Employee’s own use or benefit or for the use or benefit of any other third-party.  Accordingly, Employee hereby agrees that during Employee’s employment by Employer and for the period of twelve (12) months immediately after the Termination Date, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of Employer, directly or indirectly, on Employee’s own behalf or on behalf of any other third-party:

(A)call-on, solicit, divert, take away or attempt to call-on, solicit, divert, or take away any of the Partners (1) with whom or with which Employee had communications on Employer’s behalf about the Partner’s existing or potential business relationship with Employer with respect to the Business or provision of Services; (2) whose business dealings with Employer are or were managed or supervised by Employee as part of his duties for Employer; or (3) about whom or about which Employee obtained Confidential Information or Trade Secrets solely as a result of Employee’s employment with Employer; or

(B)interfere or engage in any conduct that would otherwise have the effect of interfering, in any manner with the business relationship between Employer and any of the Partners, including, but not limited to, urging or inducing, or attempting to urge or induce, any Partner to terminate its relationship with Employer or to cancel, withdraw, reduce, limit, or modify in any manner such Partner’s business or relationship with Employer.

(ii)Employees.  Employee understands and agrees that the relationship between Employer and each of its employees constitutes a valuable asset of Employer and such assets may not be converted to Employee’s own use or benefit or for the use or benefit of any other third-party.  Accordingly, Employee hereby agrees that during Employee’s employment with Employer and for the period of twelve (12) months immediately after the Termination Date, Employee shall not, without Employer’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, solicit or recruit for employment; attempt to solicit or recruit for employment; or attempt to hire or accept as an employee, consultant, contractor, or otherwise, any employee of Employer engaged in the Business or provision of Services; or unlawfully urge, encourage, induce, or attempt to urge, encourage, or induce any employee of Employer engaged in the Business or provision of Services to terminate his or her employment with Employer.

(c)Post-Termination Covenants by Employee.

(i)Upon the termination of Employee’s employment hereunder, regardless of (A) the date, cause, or manner of the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer, (B) whether such termination occurs with or without Cause or is a result of Employee’s resignation, or (C) whether Employer provides severance benefits to Employee under this Agreement, Employee shall resign and does resign from all positions as an employee and officer of Employer and from any other positions with Employer, with such resignations to be effective upon the Termination Date.

(ii)From and after the Termination Date, Employee agrees not to make any statements to Employer’s employees, customers, vendors, or suppliers or to any public or media source, whether written or oral, regarding Employee’s employment hereunder or termination from Employer’s employment, except as may be approved in writing by an executive officer of Employer in advance.  Employee further agrees not to make any statement (including to any media source, or to Employer’s suppliers, customers or employees) or take any action that would

- 7 -

disrupt, impair, embarrass, harm or affect adversely Employer or any of the employees, officers, directors, or customers of Employer or place Employer or such individuals in any negative light.  Testimony under oath to any governmental authority shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 4(c)(ii).

(iii)From and after the Termination Date, Employee agrees to cooperate with and provide assistance to Employer and its legal counsel in connection with any litigation (including arbitration or administrative hearings) or investigation affecting Employer, in which, in the reasonable judgment of Employer’s counsel, Employee’s assistance or cooperation is needed.  Employee shall, when requested by Employer, provide truthful testimony or other assistance and shall travel at Employer’s request in order to fulfill this obligation.  In connection with such litigation or investigation, Employer shall attempt to accommodate Employee’s schedule, shall reimburse Employee (unless prohibited by law) for any actual loss of wages in connection therewith, shall provide Employee with reasonable notice in advance of the times in which Employee’s cooperation or assistance is needed, and shall reimburse Employee for any reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such matters.

(d)Enforcement of Restrictive Covenants.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event of Employee’s actual or threatened breach of any provision of this Section 4, Employer shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from such breach or threatened breach, without the requirement of posting any bond or the necessity of proof of actual damage, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of these restrictive covenants would cause immediate and irreparable injury to Employer and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Employer.  Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Employer from pursuing any other equitable or legal remedies for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of monetary damages from Employee.  The period of any restriction set forth in this Section 4 shall be extended by any period of time that Employee is or has been found to be in breach of any provision in this Section 4.

(e)Employee Acknowledgement. Employee acknowledges and agrees that:

(i)the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement constitute material inducement to Employer entering into this Agreement and agreeing to employ Employee on the terms and conditions stated herein;

(ii)the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonable in time, territory, and scope, and in all other respects;

(iii)should any part or provision of any covenant be held invalid, void, or unenforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, voidness, or unenforceability shall not render invalid, void, or unenforceable any other part or provision of this Agreement; and

(iv)if any portion of the foregoing provisions is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction because its duration, territory, definition of activities, or definition of information covered is considered to be invalid or unreasonable in scope, the invalid or unreasonable terms shall be redefined to carry out Employer’s and Employee’s intent in agreeing to these restrictive covenants.

These restrictive covenants shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision in this Agreement and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Employee against Employer, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Employer of these restrictive covenants.

- 8 -

(a)Employee hereby assigns to Employer all of Employee’s rights, title, and interest (including, but not limited to all patent, trademarks, copyright, and trade secret rights) in and to all Work Product (as defined below) prepared or developed by Employee, made or conceived in whole or in part by Employee within the scope of Employee’s employment by Employer, or that involve the use of Confidential Information or Trade Secrets within six (6) months thereafter.  Employee further acknowledges and agrees that all copyrightable Work Product prepared by Employee within the scope of Employee’s employment by Employer are “works made for hire” and, consequently, that Employer owns all copyrights thereto.

(c)Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 5, Employee shall not be required to assign, transfer, or convey to Employer any of the rights, title, and interest Employee may have in any Work Product that Employee invents, discovers, originates, makes, or conceives during Employee’s employment by Employer if and only if (i) no equipment, supplies, facilities, Confidential Information, or Trade Secrets are used in the creation of the Work Product, (ii) the Work Product was developed entirely on Employee’s own time, (iii) the Work Product does not relate directly to the Business or to Employer’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, and (iv) the Work Product does not result in any way from any work performed by Employee for Employer.
