(ii) Executive agrees that Executive has an obligation to make a reasonable search for, and return, all originals and all copies of all documents and records made or compiled by, provided to or made available to Executive that contain confidential, proprietary, trade secret or other business information belonging to the Company Group, whether printed, typed, handwritten, videotaped, transmitted or transcribed on data files or on any other type of media and whether or not labeled or identified as confidential, proprietary or trade secret.
(iii) Executive agrees that Executive has an obligation to, no later than ten (10) business days following the earlier of the date on which his employment terminates or the date on which he is placed on garden leave, return all other Company-owned property and materials that he is aware of, including, but not limited to, credit cards, calling cards, keys, key fobs, identification badges, files, records, product samples, marketing materials, computer disks, tablets, printers, personal digital assistants, pagers, cellular telephones and all associated accessories for technology (e.g. power cords, mouse, etc.).

9

Executive does not need the prior authorization of (or to give notice to) the Company regarding any such communication or disclosure. Executive understands and acknowledges that an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (A) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of the law; or (B) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Executive understands and acknowledges further that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance is Executive authorized to disclose any information covered by the Company’s attorney-client privilege or attorney work product without the prior written consent of the Company’s General Counsel.
(vi)    Company agrees that its IT specialist who has supported Executive shall offer assistance to him in removing and obtaining Executive’s personal information on his CBRE Laptop during the Transition Period.

10


and out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses in accordance with the Company’s charter and by-laws and directors and officers insurance policy) incurred by Executive in providing such cooperation. To the extent consistent with applicable law, Executive will provide the Company advance written notice of any subpoena or legal proceeding and perform all acts reasonably and commercially practicable, at the Company’s expense, to assist the Company to obtain a protective order to the extent the Company seeks such protection. Furthermore, if such a protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Company waives compliance with the provision of this Section 6(j), Executive will furnish only such information or take only such action which his lawyers advise him is legally advisable and will exercise reasonable commercial efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any information so furnished. For avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6(j) shall (A) require Executive to cooperate with the Company in any dispute that arises under this Agreement or on any other any matter in which the Company’s and Executive’s interests are adverse or (B) prohibit or impede Executive from communicating, cooperating or filing a complaint with any Governmental Entity with respect to possible violations of any U.S. or foreign federal, state or local law or regulation, or otherwise making disclosures to any Governmental Entity, in each case, that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any such law or regulation; provided, that in each case such communications and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance is Executive authorized to disclose any information covered by the Company’s attorney-client privilege or attorney work product without the prior written consent of the Company’s General Counsel.
k.Withholding Taxes. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any payment due to Executive hereunder any amounts required to be withheld by applicable tax laws or regulations.
