Following Participant’s Retirement through each Settlement Date, Participant shall not, without the Company Group’s prior written consent, engage directly or indirectly in any Competing Business whether as an employer, officer, director, owner, stockholder, employee, partner, member, joint venturer or consultant. The Committee (or its designee) may, in its sole discretion, require Participant to submit on or prior to each Vesting Date an affidavit certifying that Participant has not breached this non-competition restriction, and may condition vesting and settlement of all unvested RSUs on the timely receipt of such affidavit. The geographic reach of this non-competition restriction shall be the territory which is co-extensive with the Company Group’s business and the Participant’s responsibilities in the last twenty-four (24) months of employment. Nothing in this non-competition restriction prevents Participant from owning not more than 2% of the equity of a publicly traded entity. For the avoidance of doubt, this non-competition restriction shall not apply to a termination of employment for any reason other than Participant’s Retirement. This provision does not apply to employees who, at the time of award or vesting, are assigned to a Company Group work location in a country, state or locality that prohibits the foregoing restrictions.
