• Other Undertakings To protect the interests of the Company and its direct and indirect affiliates and subsidiaries (individually, an “IMS Company” and collectively, the “IMS Companies”), including the confidential information of the IMS Companies and the confidential information of their respective customers, data suppliers, prospective customers and other companies with which the IMS Companies have a business relationship, and in consideration of the covenants and promises and other valuable consideration described in this Agreement, the Company and the Participant agree as follows: (a) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that he or she is bound by the confidentiality and other covenants contained in one or more restrictive covenant and confidentiality agreements that he or she has executed with an IMS Company, which covenants and agreements are incorporated herein by reference and shall survive any exercise, expiration, forfeiture or other termination of this Agreement or the SARs issuable hereunder. The Participant also acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be an affiliate for purposes of such restrictive covenant and confidentiality agreements. (b) The Participant acknowledges that the opportunity to participate in the Plan and the financial benefits that may accrue from such participation, is good, valuable and sufficient consideration for the following: (i) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that he or she is and will remain bound by the non-competition, non-solicitation and other covenants contained in the restrictive covenant and confidentiality agreement(s) that he or she has executed with any of the IMS Companies to the fullest extent permitted by law. (ii) The Participant further acknowledges and agrees that the period during which the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants in such agreement(s) will apply following a termination of Employment shall be extended from twelve (12) months to eighteen (18) months; provided, however, that the remedies available for breach of any non-competition or non-solicitation covenants during such extended six-month period shall be limited to the following: (x) to the extent then outstanding, the forfeiture of the SARs for no consideration, and (y) to the extent the SARs have been exercised on or after the date that is 18 months before Participant’s cessation of Employment, with respect to the shares of Stock issued upon such exercise (including shares withheld for taxes), the Participant shall pay to the Company an amount equal to (A) the aggregate fair market value of such shares of Stock as of the date of exercise, plus (B) the excess, if any, of the aggregate proceeds of all sales of such shares of Stock over the amount described under subsection (A) above. (For this purpose, the Participant’s earliest sales of shares following such exercise will be deemed sales of the shares acquired upon such exercise.) The Company shall also be entitled to the foregoing remedies in the event of a material breach of any confidentiality, non-disclosure or other similar covenant contained in the restrictive covenant and confidentiality agreement(s) that the Participant has executed with an IMS Company. (iii) The Participant further acknowledges and agrees to the Company’s application, implementation and enforcement of (a) such policy set forth in Section 8(b)(ii) of this Agreement and (b) any provision of applicable law or Company policy relating to cancellation, recoupment, rescission or payback of compensation and expressly agrees that the Company may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate such policy (as applicable to the Participant) or applicable law without further consent or action being required by the Participant. For purposes of the foregoing, the Participant expressly and explicitly authorizes the Company to issue instructions, on the Participant’s behalf, to any brokerage firm and/or third party administrator engaged by the Company to hold Participant’s shares of Stock and other amounts acquired under the Plan to re-convey, transfer or otherwise return such shares of Stock and/or other amounts to the Company. To the extent that the terms of this Agreement and such policy conflict, the terms of such policy shall prevail. (iv) By accepting the SARs, the Participant consents to one or more deductions from any amounts any IMS Company owes the Participant from time to time in an aggregate amount equal to all amounts described in subsection (ii) above, to the extent such deductions are permitted by applicable law. Any such deduction from an amount that constitutes a deferral of compensation under Code Section 409A may only take place at the time the amount would otherwise be payable to the Participant, except to the extent permitted by Code Section 409A.
