The Executive understands that the restrictions set forth in this Section 7(d) are intended to protect the Corporations’ interest in their Confidential Information and established employee, customer and supplier relationships and goodwill, and agrees that such restrictions are reasonable and appropriate for this purpose. If the Executive chooses not to be bound by the provision of this Section 7(d), then no severance shall be payable under Section 4(b).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) the Executive may own up to one percent (1%) of the outstanding stock of a publicly held corporation which constitutes or is affiliated with a Competing Business, and (2) the provision of this Section 7(d) shall not apply if the Executive’s employment is terminated within two (2) years after a Change in Control of either the Bank or the Corporation.

  • Nondisclosure and Nonuse of Confidential Information (a) The Executive will not disclose or use at any time, either during the term of the Executive's employment (the "Employment Period") or thereafter, any Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) of which the Executive is or becomes aware, whether or not such information is developed by him, except to the extent that such disclosure or use is directly related to and required by the Executive's performance in good faith of duties assigned to the Executive by the Company. The Executive will take all appropriate steps to safeguard Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. The Executive shall deliver to the Company at the termination of the Employment Period, or at any time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information or the Work Product (as hereinafter defined) of the business of the Company or any of its Affiliates which the Executive may then possess or have under his or her control.

Confidential Information will not include any information that has been published in a form generally available to the public prior to the date the Executive proposes to disclose or use such information.
