Devotion to Employment. Executive shall devote substantially all Executive’s business time and efforts to the performance of Executive’s duties on behalf of Rural/Metro. During Executive’s term of employment, Executive shall not at any time or place or to any extent whatsoever, either directly or indirectly, without the express written consent of Rural/Metro, engage in any outside employment, or in any activity competitive with or adverse to Rural/Metro’s business, practice or affairs, whether alone or as partner, officer, director, employee, shareholder of any corporation or as a trustee, fiduciary, consultant or other representative. This is not intended to prohibit Executive from engaging in nonprofessional activities such as personal investments or conducting to a reasonable extent private business affairs which may include other boards of directors’ activity, as long as they do not conflict with Rural/Metro. Participation to a reasonable extent in civic, social or community activities is encouraged. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any non-Rural/Metro activities shall be conducted in compliance with Rural/Metro’s corporate governance policies and other policies and procedures as in effect from time to time.
