(c) Non-Solicitation of Employees. During the Employment Period and until the earlier of: (i) the last day of the one
year period following any Voluntary Termination of the Employment Period by Executive pursuant to Section 5 hereof,
or (ii) the date a Change of Control occurs, Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit, encourage or induce any
employee of the Company or its affiliates to terminate employment with such entity, and shall not directly or indirectly,
either individually or as owner, agent, employee, consultant or otherwise, employ or offer employment to any person
who is or was employed by the Company or an affiliate thereof unless such person shall have ceased to be employed by
such entity for a period of at least six months. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the terms of this Section
9(c) shall not apply in the event of any termination of employment following a Change of Control as provided for in
Section 6 of this Agreement.
(d) Company Property. Except as expressly provided herein, promptly following any termination of the Employment
Period, Executive shall return to the Company all property of the Company, and all copies thereof in Executive’s
possession or under his control.
(e) Injunctive Relief and Other Remedies with Respect to Covenants. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the
covenants and obligations of Executive with respect to noncompetition, confidentiality, nonsolicitation, and Company
property relate to special, unique and extraordinary matters and that a violation of any of the terms of such covenants
and obligations will cause the Company irreparable injury for which adequate remedies are not available at law.
Therefore, Executive agrees that the Company (i) shall be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or such other
equitable relief (without the requirement to post bond) restraining Executive from committing any violation of the
covenants and obligations contained in this Section 9, and (ii) shall have no further obligation to pay unearned
compensation, incentive awards, unvested awards, or bonus payments to Executive hereunder following any material
violation of the covenants and obligations contained in this Section 9. These remedies are cumulative and are in
addition to any other rights and remedies the Company may have at law or in equity. In connection with the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9, Executive represents that his economic means and circumstances are such that such
provisions will not prevent him from providing for himself and his family on a basis satisfactory to him.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall an asserted violation of the provisions of this Section constitute a basis
for deferring or withholding any amounts otherwise payable to the Executive under this Agreement following a Change
of Control.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Survival. All of the provisions of Sections 5 (relating to termination of the Employment Period prior to a Change of
Control), 6 (relating to termination of the Employment Period following a Change of Control), 9 (relating to
noncompetition, confidentiality, nonsolicitation and Company property), 10(b) (relating to arbitration), 10(c) (relating
to legal fees) and 10(n) (relating to governing law) of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
