Common use of Former Employers Clause in Contracts

Former Employers. Executive is not subject to any employment, confidentiality, or other agreement or restriction that would prevent Executive from fully satisfying Executive’s duties under this Agreement or that would be violated if Executive did so. Without the Company’s prior written approval, Executive covenants that Executive will not: (i) disclose proprietary information belonging to a former employer or other entity without its written permission; (ii) contact any former employer’s customers or employees to solicit their business or employment on behalf of the Company, in either case if such contact or solicitation would violate any agreement between Executive and any prior employer of Executive; or (iii) distribute announcements about or otherwise publicize Executive’s employment with the Company. Executive will indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any liabilities or costs, including attorneys’ fees it may incur because Executive is alleged to have broken any of these promises or improperly revealed or used such proprietary information or to have threatened to do so, or if a former employer challenges Executive’s entering into this Agreement or rendering services pursuant to it.
