(b) Business Covenants Agreement: On February 7, 2019, the Company, ArcMail, and Welch entered into a Business Covenants Agreement (the “Covenants Agreement”) under which ArcMail and Welch agreed to not compete with the Company’s use of the ArcMail business under the License for a period of twenty four (24) months from the later of (i) February 7, 2019; (ii) the date on which the Company acquires the 50% of the stock of ArcMail; or, (iii) the last date on which Welch renders services to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
