The Executive shall hold in strictest confidence and shall not, without the Executive Approval, disclose to anyone, other than directors, officers, employees and counsel of the Company in furtherance of the business of the Company, any Confidential and Trade Secret Information relating to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential and Trade Secret Information” includes: the general or specific nature of any concept in development, the business plan or development schedule of any concept, vendor, merchant or customer lists or other processes, know-how, designs, formulas, methods, software, improvements, technology, new products, marketing and selling plans, business plans, development schedules, budgets and unpublished financial statements, licenses, prices and costs, suppliers, and information regarding the skills, compensation or duties of employees, independent contractors or consultants of the Company and any other information about the Company that is proprietary or confidential.

The restrictions set forth in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to information that is or becomes generally available to the public or known within the Company’s trade or industry (other than as a result of its wrongful disclosure by the Executive), or information received on a non-confidential basis from sources other than the Company who are not in violation of a confidentiality agreement with the Company. The Executive further represents and agrees that, during the Term and at all times thereafter, the Executive is obligated to comply with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding trading shares and/or exercising options related to the Company’s stock. The Executive acknowledges that the Company has not provided opinions or legal advice regarding the Executive’s obligations in this respect and that it is the Executive’s responsibility to seek independent legal advice with respect to any stock or option transaction.
Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive termination of this Agreement. (a)
Nondisclosure and Nonuse Unless authorized or instructed in advance in writing by Corporation, or required by law (as determined by licensed legal counsel), Executive will not, except as required in the course of Corporation’s business, during or after his employment, disclose to others or use any Confidential Information, unless and until, and then only to the extent that, such items become available to the public through no fault of Executive.
Confidentiality, Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that during the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive will have access to and may assist in developing Confidential Information and will occupy a position of trust and confidence with respect to the affairs and business of the Company and the Company Affiliates. The Executive agrees that the following obligations are necessary to preserve the confidential and proprietary nature of Confidential Information and to protect the Company and the Company Affiliates against harmful solicitation of employees and customers, harmful competition and other actions by the Executive that would result in serious adverse consequences for the Company and the Company Affiliates:
Nondisclosure and Nonuse Obligations Director will use the Confidential Information solely to perform his obligations for the benefit of the Company hereunder. Director will treat all Confidential Information of the Company with the same degree of care as Director treats his own Confidential Information, and Director will use his best efforts to protect the Confidential Information. Director will not use the Confidential Information for his own benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity, except as being specifically permitted in this Agreement. Director will immediately give notice to the Company of any unauthorized use or disclosure by or through him, or of which he becomes aware, of the Confidential Information. Director agrees to assist the Company in remedying any such unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information.
Non-Disclosure and Non-Use of Confidential Information The Employee agrees not to disclose, use, copy or duplicate or otherwise permit the use, disclosure, copying or duplication of any Confidential Information (other than in connection with authorized activities conducted in the course of the Employee’s employment at the Company for the benefit of the Company) during the period of including during his/her employment with the Company or at any time thereafter. The Employee agrees to take all reasonable steps and precautions to prevent any unauthorized disclosure, use, copying or duplication of Confidential Information.
Nondisclosure and Noncompetition As an inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement, the Executive represents to and covenants with or in favor of the Company as follows:
Non-Use and Non-Disclosure Each Party acknowledges and agrees that all the other Party’s Confidential Information is confidential and proprietary to the disclosing Party. Each Party shall not use or disclose to any third party the other Party’s Confidential Information for any purpose other than as permitted or required hereunder. Each Party shall take the same reasonable measures necessary to prevent any disclosure by its employees, agents, contractors, or consultants of the other Party’s Confidential Information as it applies to the protection of its own Confidential Information.
Non-Disclosure Agreement The parties acknowledge entering into a separate non disclosure agreement relating to the Company’s proprietary information, attached as Exhibit A (“Non-Disclosure Agreement”). The terms of the Non-Disclosure Agreement are incorporated herein by this reference. In the event of a conflict between the Non-Disclosure Agreement and this Agreement, the terms providing greater protection to the Company and its proprietary information shall be determinative.
NON-COMPETITION AND NON-DISCLOSURE (a) Upon any termination of Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 4 hereof, Executive agrees not to compete with the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for a period of one (1) year following such termination in any city, town or county in which the Executive's normal business office is located and the Holding Company or any of its Subsidiaries has an office or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office, determined as of the effective date of such termination, except as agreed to pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board. Executive agrees that during such period and within said cities, towns and counties, Executive shall not work for or advise, consult or otherwise serve with, directly or indirectly, any entity whose business materially competes with the depository, lending or other business activities of the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, its business and property in the event of Executive's breach of this Subsection 10(a) agree that in the event of any such breach by Executive, the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by Executive, Executive's partners, agents, servants, employees and all persons acting for or under the direction of Executive. Executive represents and admits that in the event of the termination of his employment pursuant to Section 7 hereof, Executive's experience and capabilities are such that Executive can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or of a different nature than the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries, and that the enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent Executive from earning a livelihood. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries from pursuing any other remedies available to the Holding Company or its Subsidiaries for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive.
